we made a tour of inspection of the beau

In this building is the exhibit of the
Smithsonian Institution and the Nation

nearly the entire animal kingdom. Here
is the horned dinasaur; the African e,e-
phant. and the skeleton of mastodon
found in a peat deposit in Michigan. also
the skeleton of a whale found on the
coast of New Foundland, which is 81
feet long and whose skull alone is nearly
20 feet long. here we saw the "armoreo
dinasaur." a playful looking creature
abuot the size of an elephant, with great
horny fins on his back and horns on his
head and tail. There is such a resem-
blance between his head and tail yo'
can't tell which way he is going until you
look at his toes. John says that he was
built that way so ''if anything escaped
his horned head his horned tail was
sure to get it."
