Yes, the monkey is the funniest
of animals, but he is also the sad
dest. Look at his face and you will
see that it looks as if he were very
sorry about something, and very
sorry for himself He also looks as
If he were just about to tell you
why-but he never does.
Well, long time ago, there was
a young monkey who knew every
thing that monkey could possibly
know, but he wanted to know more.
He called meeting of all the
monkeys and suggested that they
start a new animal, which should
be higher than a monkey.
Well, this caused almost as much
of a row as if some one were to
suggest to us that We should be-
come monkeys. The old, old mon
keys especially were very angry,
and one of the old monkeys made
song:
We are monkeys born, we are
monkeys bred,
And we're going to be monkeys till
we're dead.
Monkeys, monkeys. ever we'll be,
All faithful to our family tree
And proud Of our monkey pedigree.
So only few of the monkeys de-
cided to break away from the fam
lily tree and become something bet
ter and to know more. The young
monkey had long ago learned that
the inside of a hollow tree sheltered
you better than the outside of a
tree, SO LIE and his companions be-
gan to live in caves. They could
put heavy stone in the mouth Of
cave and live safer from their
enemies than ever before. AS they
no longer lived in trees they began
to walk erect on their hind feet and
to forget to use their tails, SO
finally there were no tails at all.
From finding caves, the monkeys
learned how to make caves, and one
day one of them found something
which made him warm. He man.
aged to take some of this to his
own cave, and so started the first
fire upon a hearth. AS they now
lived in their own cave-homes in
stead of wandering from tree to
tree, their food grew farther and
farther away from them, so they
tried, little by little, to make 1t
grow nearer to their caves, and so
the first garden was started.
One day, so many centuries after
that l cannot tell you how many,
one of the monkeys learned that

If you were sufficiently in love
with this girl to warrant marrying
her, you would never feel the neces-
sity oil asking such question.
That, in itself, is its own answer:
or so it seems to me. Admiration
of wOmans character and dispo-
sition makes a very good founda-
ton for happy marriage, but it is
not enough. | do not believe you
should marry her unless the
thought of living without her is un-
bearable to you. Perhaps this will
come in time. Wait while.
