An illustration showing the differ
ence between instinct and reason in
monkeys came under the observation
Of David Starr Jordan. the famous
educator. At one time he had two
lively Macacus monkeys called Bob
and Jocko. These were nut and fruit
eating monkeys and instinctively knew
Just how to crack nuts and peel fruits.
At the same time he had baby mon
key, Mono. of kind that had the egg
eating instinct But Mono had never
yet seen an egg.
To each OF the three monkeys DR..
Jordan gave an egg, the first that any
of them had ever seen. Baby Mono,
descended from egg eating ancestors,
handled his egg with all the inherited
expertness of long developed in
stinct. He cracked ii with his upper
teeth making hole in 1t. and sucked
out all its substance. Then, holding
the eggshell up to the light and see-
ing there was no longer anything in
il, he threw ii away. All this he did

INSTINCT AND REASON

mechanically, automatically and just
as we'll with the first egg as with any
other ne afterward had. And all eggs
since given him he has treated in the
same way.
The monkey Bob took his egg for
some kind of nut. He broke it with
his teeth and tried to pull off the shell.
When the inside ran out and fell on
the ground he looked at 1t for mo-
ment In bewilderment. then with both
hands scooped up the yolk and the
sand mixed with il and swallowed il.
Then he stuffed the shell into his
mouth. This act was not instinct; it
was reason. He was not familiar by
inherited instinct with eggs. He would
handle one better next time, however.
Reason very often makes mistakes at
first. but when 1t is trained it becomes
a means far more valuable and power
full than instinct
The third monkey, JookO, tried to
eat his egg in much the same way that
Bob did; but. not liking the taste he
threw 1t away.-St Nicholas.

her home and seek refuge in the Black

and kind treatment and lived several
years among very poor peasants. She
had taken her chickens with her and
took great pleasure III giving their
eggs to her poor neighbors.
She was particularly interested in
the children and devoted considerable
time to their instruction. She made a
rule to give a present to each child
at Easter, but each year she had few

This necessity suggested to her the
novel idea of decorating some eggs
with bright colors, and to make them
still more interesting she concealed
them among the dry leaves in the for

them and We're greatly astOnished and
delighted to find the colored eggs.
