II MAMMOTH ON ICE.
Preserved for Many Centuries as

The huge body of the Siberian mammoth which
discovered in the summer of 1901 has now
been erected in the museum Of the Academy Of
Sciences at st. Petersburg. The unique interest

found and other preserved bodies of mammoths
seen no body complete this has ever
before been brought home civilization. The
hide hair, eyes, flesh and bones of the mammoth
