The wife of leading druggist of
Des Moines tells how her brother was
changed from dyspepuc without ap-
petite 90 prodigiOus eater.
My brother, who is a lawyer in
Chicago. came to visit me and I hardly
knew him on his arrival he was so
him for years and was much llatned
at his appearance He told me noJ tO
worry as he had been in this condition
for years as q result of chronic dyspep-
STA. I asked him what he had done
FOR it. and he said he had done every
thing-takeu every remedy he had ever
heard of and consulted doctors without
number. none of them helped him.
asked him If ne ever took Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets, and he said he hadn't
and what was more he wouldn't. He
had sworn or taking medicine of any
kind.
"I had my husabnd bring home
box from the store and / actually made
him take one or two of the tablets
after he had eaten. They made him
feel so much better that he offered no
further objection. He had not taken
the one box before he was greatly i'm
him of dyspepsia and gave him Won
darful appetite He came near eating
us out of house and home Ny, but it
did me good to see him eat. He gained
home. and he writes me that he has
not been troubled with dyspepsia
since"
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets actually
do the work assigned to them They
relieve weak and overburdened stom-
nchs of their work of digestive action.
Fheir component parts are identical
with those Of the digestive fluids and
secretlons Of the stomach and they
simply take up the grind and carry on
the work just the same as good
strong. healthy stomach would do it.
on this account Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are perfectly natural in their
action and effects. They do not cause
any unnatural or violent disturbance
Ia the stomach or bowels. They them
selves digest the food and supply the
system with all the nourishment con
tanned In what is eaten and carry out
Natures plans for the sustenance and

THE GELADI BAB DON

sile which he threw with amazing force, but,
fortunately, with both hands and very bad
aim.
When robbing fields of grain, sugar cane,
or melons, or groundnuts. the baboons form
a line, and pass the spoil back toward their
rocky retreats with great speed and dexterity,
and while Going So they place sentinels to
warn them of the approach of danger.
The females, which are much smaller than
the males, and the young, are always kept
in the rear
Kolbe, reputable writer and traveller, says
that they have been known to fall upon and
tear to pieces a sentinel who had been care
less; and allowed himself to be surprised at his
work.
Indeed, their intelligence, strength and fe-
rocity renders them very troublesome neigh
bors for native cultivators; and they will
fully and maliciously destroy much more than
they carry off.
Blanford, naturalist who accompanied the
English expedition to Abyssinia, says that the
great dog-faced baboon of that country is
identical with the drawings and carvings in
the Egyptian tombs of Thoth-the sacred ape
of ancient Egypt.
It is found in the mountains of Abyssinia
even at height of nine thousand feet, gen
orally selecting the sides of rocky ravines
for its abode.
When in search of food, they are headed
by the old males, with their great lion-like
names.
When water is scarce-as it often is in
that country, the troops of balloons may
often be seen, in the evening, sitting on the
rocks above the wells and waiting until the
herdsmen have watered their cattle. On such
occasions they are very quiet, and the old fell
lows severely cuff or bite the young who are
noisy OF frolicsome
Brehm says that the baboons have been
known to attack and kill leopard which
had been indiscreet enough to try to carry
off one of their young, and that the lions,
+iynxes, hyenas, and other beasts of prey are
very careful how they attack young baboon
which may be astray as they might be at
once set upon by the whole of the fierce and
powerful troop.

of numbering gallop. They do not attain full
growth until seven or eight years old, and
are said TO live to be forty.
The teeth are in number the same as in
man, and they eat almost anything, but by
preference feed on seeds, fruit, sugar cane
and nuts; although the Gelada and one or
two other kinds live mostly upon insects and
birds eggs, as there is little vegetation of any
kind in the parts which they frequent.
But none of the balloons are of arboreal
habits, and live mostly among rocks and
precipices, which afford them secure retreat.
When excited, they have a strong, roaring
voice, and the whole aspect Of the animal
gives the idea of great physical strength. as
sociated with vicious and feroeious temper
Indeed, they are among the most cruel, de-
structive and disgusting Of animals, and can
kept under in captivity, by strong, chains and
hard blows, and those captured when old are
especially intractable and dangerous.
Each troop of balloons has its own range,

eiough, Tom had made a new friend. His
love of society had overcome his natural in
stinct. and he was drinking his breakfast
while the rat was jumping around the saucer
in the most unconcerned manner,
But alas for the rats confidence in feline
nature! For few days all went well be-
tween the strange friends. They were often
seen together and were always apparently on
the best of terms. One morning, however,
Bridget coming down stairs found the rat 5
ed with blood.
Either the whilom friends had quarreled
or, relieved by the return OF the family from
the necessity of taking up with any aequaint-
ance he could make, Thomas had decided to
give up his friendship. And with the decision
probably his normal instincts had resumed
their sway.
The foregoing is a true story.
Los Angeles herald., 1906-12-09

and woe to the stranger, even of their own
race, who intrudes upon their domain, for If
he cannot make good his retreat, he is soon
destroyed.
When approached by men, they are apt to
show fight, throwing sticks and stones, and
uttering threatening cries, and often only
yielding to firearms after some of their num-
ber have been killed.
1t is related by French traveller that he
once saw a small troop of balloons so sur
rounded by armed men that they could aot
escape, and in their rage and despair the ami,
mails threw themselves over precipice, and
were dashed to pieces.
Instances are we'll authenticated of their
having surrounded and killed unarmed men.
The writer we'll remembers huge baboon

chants house, in st. Paul de Loando.

which seemed to be almost accomplished. and

arrived at the edge of the open square:
"There is schooner making directly for

one else would have business here"
"How far away is she?" asked Bob, quick
ly.
"About four miles"
"She may be some sponger, running down
to the fishing ground" suggested Percy, his
hopes giving rise to the thought.

The labor was performed easily up to the
point where Bob had ceased clearing away
the underbrush. but after that the progress
was slow. AT times they found it necessary
to cut apart entire trees that they might con-
tinue straight on, and then perhaps for four
or five rods they would encounter no diff.
culties.
At noon no one thought of stoppine for
dinner Two-thirds of the distance had been
covered, and they were eager to push on to

task was very nearly accomplished. and to the

~ lCORPIONS, especially those which
live among the rocks and dry places
OF hot countries, are very formida-
I Bile creatures. If boy, however MIN
ble-fngered, were to endeavor to
pick one up, he would probably suf-
Ter from the sting to degree which might
even cause death. Yet the Gelada baboon
can do this very thing-moving rocks of large
size, seizing the scorpion, extracting the stings
with great dexterity, and then crunching the
insect under his strong teeth as a sweet NOR
sci.
Baboons are the genus of the monkey kind
called cynocephali, or dog-headed. All ba-
boons belong to the Old World, and all spe-
cies but one to Africa. One kind is found in
Arabia, which is most African as regards its
animals.
The long-tailed balloons, such as the Ge-
lada, have the tail in direct line or contnu-
alton of the spine, like that of a cow or
dog, while the short-tailed ones, like the
Mandril, have the short, slender, pig-like
tail cooked up at right angles with the spinc
as if it had been broken off and put on again
the wrong way.
All the baboons have large bare places, called
callosities, upon which they, sit. and some
have red OF blue places upon their faces, which
give them hideous appearance.
The hair of the baboon under consideration
is long about the neck, so as to form quite
name, and is blacl1ish, shading into a pale
brown. The head is large, elongated, dog
like, with compressed cheeks, strong project
ing teeth, and forehead depressed below a
great frontal ridge.
The shape and color of the eyes and the
similarity of the hands and arms give these
creatures horrible resemblance to humanity,
and yet if we look closely we will see that
the eyes look along down the muzze in q
peculiar way, especially strongly marked in
the Gelada.
