THE BOY TURNED OUT.

His Case, Was Not Easily
Forgotten.

He was a boy of II who was at the zoo
with his father to see the sights, and as
they stood before the cage occupied By
the chimpanzee the boy inquired:
Father, do them things like boys!"
"Mebbe they do, my son." replied the
father; but I guess l wouldn't git too
near"
"But tina. one wants to shake hands"
Eyes, he pears to; but l wouldn't
shake"
Don't you think he wants to be
friends!"
''Mebbe so, but YOU kin jest wink at
him to let him know how you feel"
That didn't exactly satisfy the boy, how
ever. The "chim" insisted on reaching
out his black paw for friendly grip, and
while the fathers back was turned the
lad extended his hand, says the Boston
Globe.
Next instant his howls caused q rush
OF the crowd to see what was the matter,
and as he held up finger which was bitten
to the bone and danced about, the father
produced a handkerchief to tie it up and
explained to the people:
Hes my son Claudius, and he's great
hand to find out things. He's just found
out that them critters hev teeth.
