and still growing. with his second teeth
cutting through. For pets he has a fox
terrier and cat which he treats beau
tifGlly. being a good-tempered ape. But he
tolerates children only when the grown
ups ignore them. at this point showing a
rather jealous disposition.
This is all exceedingly interesting. but
more interesting still IS the way the chin
panzee acquired his education. He has
never been trained in the way lower
animals usually are His tricks have not
been forced upon him by whip and spur.
On the contrary. Consul Is what he Is to-
day because he has lived with civilized
human beings since he was nine months
old. sharing from infancy. so 10 speak.
like any child, the home life Of his
master.
And, like a child Consul has grown Up
unconsciously initiating those around him.
He has known no other life than that Of
the men he has lived with. and thus he
has copied their habits and absorbed hJ-
man culture 10 the very limit Of his brain
capacity The process this ape has gone
through. il is easy to see, has a scientific
basis Il Is illustrated con-
stantly in the rearing Of children; IL may
be observed IN the development OF back
ward races when brought into contact
with races more advanced IN civilization.
ConSurs master believes that only one
thing is lacking 10 make possible an evO-
luton Of apes. right under human eyes,
to a much higher level than this particu-
lar animal has reached. As the Spectator
says: He believe that II -ou could get a
succession OF chimpanzees - father, son.
grandson. and so ou-living with human
family. the resemblance 10 humanity
would grow with every step in the success
sion. Possibly ever physical differences
would disappear.
The need for the distance between the
thumb and the diglts would vanish with
the ending CT the necessity Of climbing
trees. and the apes hand. perhaps, would
become gradually nearer a human hand"
Then why not Try the experiment. Here
nature erects an inSUFmOunJable barrier.
These animals are never born outside the
African Jungle they will not breed in
captivity. And consequently each OF Con-
surs successors must always start as a
wild ape. II is with a sense Of disap-
pointment that one faces this fact yet
nature, in throwing II forward, maintains
her majestic dignity.
II she required thousands or millions Of
years in which to evolve apes into men.
Is il likely that she would lightly aid an

lures like ourselves 10 repeat the process

There was printed in the Springfield Re-
publican a few days ago d report by the
London Daily News Of a memory test
10 which a highly-trained chimpanzee
named Consul had been subjected at Hotel
Cecil The apes performance, to be
frank. did not seem remarkable, mas
much as many a dog would be regarded
as intolerably stupid II he could not rec
ognize his master after q three-months
absence: and all that Consul did to show
of his memory was 10 recognize joyfully
his manager after q separation of that
duration
But Consul IS undoubtedly capable Of
meeting successfully q much severer test
Of his mental powers than any other
Of the lower animals now alive No one
ever saw 8 trained dog that could equal
this apes performance in initiating hu-
man kind. and It Is probable that all who
have witnessed his public appearances
have come away convinced that. II we
are not descendants Of the monkeys. the
most developed apes are the spe-
cies nearest to ourselves in the scale Of
animal life.

before il is explained how he came to do

after all, as prime minister.
Il is a pleasure &c quote so vivid and en-
tertaining q description OF Consul as this:
He comes running in. dressed in oTdi-

on stand. Then he proceeds to have
