lndication THAT vhis Monkey L. Endowed
With = share of Each.


"That the monkey possesses intelli-
gence 10 a considerable degree is proba-
bly, true" said a hotel proprietor who
has a small menagerie on his premises.
II believe, however, much Of the intel
ligence with which that animal is cred
tied is due 20 his love Of mimicry.
1.-The other day two young men with
two girls were at the monkeys cage
feeding him peanuts. One of the girls
was chewing gum, and one of the men
suggested that she give the monkey
some, expecting that if he took il in his
mouth il would stick 10 his teeth, and
he would make sorry work of trying to
chew it. The girl at once parted with
the sweet morsel she was SO industrious
ly chewing, extending il toward the
cage. The monkey grabbed it instantly
and put it into his mouth, but instead
of chewing il, or attempting TO, began
pulling it out in small ribbons, as chill
dren are frequently seen TO do. When
he had it all out of his mouth, he rolled
it into a compact ball between his
hands, threw it into his mouth and be-
gan the operation again. He appeared
to enjoy the performance as much as his
visitors. That was imitation.
That's all right, rejoined another,
"but l had an experience with that
same monkey wherein he displayed in
telligence. / was by the cage smoking
one day, and thought to annoy him by
blowing smoke in his face. / was much
surprised to find that, instead of being
annoyed, he enjoyed it, as was evil
denced by his edging up as near me as
possible 10 receive the smoke in larger
volumes Soon he began scratching
himse II at the point where most Of the
smoke came against him. When had
smoked one side for few minutes, he
would turn squarely round TO have the
other side treated in the same way.
Then he sat up directly in front CT me
and received the smoke squarely in the
face and neck / don't know whether
he held his breath, but he did not cough,
sneeZe or vince particle. To complete
the job he then sat with his back toward
me, and it would have done you good
to have seen him throw his hind feet
over his back and scratch. 1t made me
think of the kickers of hay tedder in
motion. Now that monkey knew,
through some sort of intelligence, that

COLLEGE GIRLS AND MARRIAGE.
Bits OF Confession That Throw a Light on
the Question.

the Question.
I have no doubt that the remaining
cause Of the low marriage rate is that
many men dislike intellectual women
whether because such women are really
disagreeable or because men S taste is at
fault / shall not try to determine. And
even among those who like them as
friends many feel as the young man did
who made this confession:
II never expected to marry the sort Of
girl did. You know l always believed
in intellectual equality and all that
and had good friendships with the col
any illusions about us. After you had
seen US hanging at the board on problems
You could work and had taken the same
degrees yourselves, you couldn Z imagine
US wonders just because we had gone
through college, and when l met dear
little girl that thought l knew every
thing-why, it just keeled me right
over. 1t was feeling l had no idea of. {"
And the college woman answered:
Il will betray something to you. Lots
of Us are just as unreformed as you. We
want just as much to look up to our hus-
bands as you want to be looked up to.
Only of course the more we know the
harder it is to find somebody to meet the
want. Probably the equal marriage is
really the ideal one, and everybody will
come to prefer it some day. But per-
sonally l like men to be superior to me
Only I'll tell you what l don't like in
them-the wish to keep ahead of us by
holding US back, like spoiled children
that want to be given the game and
then admired for their skill. If men
would encourage us TO do our very best,
and then do still better themselves, it
ought to be good for civilization. -
