MONKEYS WITH LONG NOSES.
4 specimen of . Rare Variety Arri, cs
In HambuYg From DorneO.

Most monkeys have nothing but nose
holes, and no real nose. as we consider
II. But there is a monkey in Borneo that
has a long nose, longer even than that Of
particularly lonG-noeed human beings.
A specimen Of this monkey. known as
the proboscis monkey. has just been
brought alive TO Europe, and is now in
Hamburg.
The queer creature has attracted much
attention II looks grotesuuely human
like--very M cl lide a man who has put
on a big artificial nose fer fun.
The monkey can move his nose upward
or downward, and he can make il stick out
straight from his face.
II IA very rare o find proboscis monkeys
in captivity. Most Of them die before they
ae' much farther than Suez because they
are very sensitive to the changes in tenn
perature and 10 the conditions of captivity.
The one In Hamburg has been named
XIII Fe looks extremely mild and
gentle, bur his repu'atio is different
He is accused Of being wicked and
treacherous.

that New York knows is a legendary cere-
mony Of Easter Sunday afternoon on Fifth
avenue The Easter parade cannot tou'h
the typewriter parade of lower Broadway
that forms every ef crnocn az 1880 and
continues with gathering and bewidering
increase in numbers and beauty and alur-
ing wavs for ucarly two hours.
Consider now, that every one 81 those
big buildings tha, you see from the Jersey
ferryboats rising like section of honeycomb
out Of the waterline is full OF Offices Of one
and two or three room, each. Consider
that in Alnlcs az every one Of those offices
there is a young woman ra'tling away at
the keys of a typewriter, that in many
there are several young women
Consider that many Of these young women
are pretty and that they are working for
clothes that will prove to some available
young man just how pretty they are. Con-
rider that all Of the thousands in all Of these
thousands of offices ARE turned loose to

auiry is made by not unattractive young
who lie apparently delayed be-
side them In the crush.
Then, again, IL one Is In the habit Of
smiling very much Al the same time every
day on the same strip OF sidewalk. 10 1t
surprising that one should
smile unconsciously when ones COM
panion isn't along, perhaps because she
has gone to lunch with the head Of the
firm TO have the particular import ance
Of a certain set of papers explained to her?
II at such time a youthful manag-
ing clerk should stop dreaming Of hi
n ambitions TO achieve the Supreme
4 Court bench or the chairman
ship Of the Stock Exchange long
enough to misinterpret such smile
lis it a matter for self-accusation|
or regret?
Il II the young woman oflower Broad
way ever troubled her dainty head
with reflections and self examina-
tions, these are the thoughts that
might come to her, But what need
!s there for any bother on such un.
profitable topics. when one has all

an hour away from the click and
cling of the typewriter KEYS and bel.

The sad experience Of him who delivers

is usually the heart that breaks. And after
many years Of earnest experiment he is
sure that there = no heart a, all behind

Care Of Babies Nails.
From Harper's Bazaar.


The nail should never be cleaned with a
steel or sharp instrument; use the eEd of
a small wooden toothpick. or, better still.
a bit of pointed ivory. Dip either tooth
pick or ivory in warm water before clean
ing the nails; do not dig in deeply so as to
separate the skin from the nail, or the flesh
will become sore and harden under the
edges Of the nail; the surface skin about
the base Of the nail should be carefully
pushed back each day, soft piece Of linen
cloth or towel being used for this purpose.
Never cut the skin from the base Of the
nail; this will harden and tougher the skin.
which will grow again quickly, and will al
ways give trouble. Carefully rub 1t back
every day, or, II 1t will not rub back easily,
push 1t back gently with the ivory stick.
II this care Is persevered In. the skin will
not adhere to the nails. but will grow
smoothly, and there will be no ragged
edges or hang nails; as the child grows
older the skin will remain beautifully soft
and smooth about the nails, and the nails
themselves will also naturally become oval
in form, and the finger tips tapering
