to this country by Professor Frederick
D'osta, and aided TO. the Hagenback
congress of wild animals on the Expo

examined several days ago by num-
ber of eminent Philadelphia surgeons,
who were unanimous In the opinion
that he was as much like man as he
was like an orang outang They think
that in time the man monkey will learn
TO behave himself as decorously as
some human beings and TO speak the
English language as well as some
others who have received the advan-

Island Of Samanta, of which they have
been almost the sole inhabitants foi
centuries. At their home the animals
live exactly as man is said by scientist,

was less than 10 months old, he has
always been dressed exactly like a

most able TO dress himself.
When introduced to q stranger he

QUICKLY MADE BEEF TEA

Take any desired quantity Of steak
from the top part of the round, as this
has less fat and more juice than any
other part Of the OK; remove every NOR
sci Of fat and divide the meat into small
pieces, cutting across the grain; put the
meat in a dry sauce pan and allow it TO
sweat for five minutes over slow fire,
stirring occasionally to prevent stick
ing. This is how all beef-essences are
prepared. After sweating for five min
utes you will find the meat white in
color and surrounded by a very rich
nourishing gravy. which, in cases of
great exhaustion may be given in this
form. But ordinarily you next pour over
the meat its weight of cold water, al
lowing a pint of water to pound of
beef Stir until the water hollis; ii must
not boil again, but simmer gently for
five or ten minutes. until the Juice is
drawn out; then strain carefully into a
bowl, and il there is a particle of fat
on top remove it with piece OF
brown unsized paper. In this way YOU
may take off every bit of fat without
wasting drop of the beef tea, as is done
when using ladle or spoon. Made in
this way YOU may have strong beef tea in
twenty minutes, Don't season until
needed.

Philadelphia, Nov. l6. There Is an
exceedingly clever actor at the ENp
exposition. In every sense of the wore
he is "the whole show" for, while he
goes through one-act play, he takes
all the interesting parts himself. He
doesn't say word. and yet his actina
is so lifelike and clever that 1t secures
applause every few minutes. This
clever actor is known as Beautiful

The Fact That "a MILTON and a Halt OF

What the Managers Accaiu plished-The
Great Variety of Exhibtts.

Philadelphia, Nov. 1e. The men who
make and manage a successful /.
dustrial exposition of national inn
portance are public benefactors. They
tre usually and naturally men of large
wealth, liberal business views and in
terested in a generous way in trade
and commercial advancement. The
makers of the National Export expo
Fition exemplify in a marked degree
these characteristics. They have made
the enterprise great trade success
and by adroit and skillful management
have brought it also to successful
financial condition. The fact TINT /;
million and half of persons haye
visited the exhibition indicates in par
what its managers were enabled to
accomplish. They brought together
exhibits in great variety, representing
an invested capital of more than a
half billion dollars and industrial
employees exceeding q million and .
half in number. The conception of the
idea of the National Export exposition
dates back to the summer of 1897
when representatives Of the Latin
American governments visited the
United States to mako an examination
of the industries OF this country. These
gentlemen, after having held con-
gress, in which the subjects of inter-
est to them were discussed. were taken
on a tour of industrial centers of the
United States. At the city of Provi-
dence. R. l.. they were entertained
and instructed in specially interest
ing manner. A little industrial fair
had been improyised in a large build
ing Just completed for the use of an
extensive manufacturing concern. This
fair, or exhibition, although improvis-
ed, represented pretty fully the maa-
utacturing industries of Rhode ISL
and, and presented to the foreign
visitors striking object lesson.
