EVER SEE A PINK MONKEY?
This South American Brand Is Worse
Than the Other Kind.

If you should ever happen to be wan

this animal gets on your trail you
might as well ring down the curtain

When it gets after the Colombian In
dams, according to II. G Spurrell. nat
GraIist and member of the London
School Of Tropical Medicine, the Indian
listens to the BEASTS soul whitening
sobS for three days and three nights
and then commits suicide.
Mr. Spurrell says that the sobbing
monkey is pink and is one of the most
rare animals in South America. For
reasons that have never been made
clear the sohhing monkey will at Ger
tain times in the year leave Its home
in the most impenetrable wilderness
and go to the nearest Indian encamp
ment where it will select its victim
and follow him day and night, keeping
up continual weeping and waillng.
According to tribal traditions this is
sure sign that the victim will shortly
be taken with the sleeping sickness or
some other fatal disease. 1t has been
customary for the natives to listen to
the monkeys sobbing for three days
and three nights and then commit sui
eide. thus avoiding death by the dread.

MOODY REBELLED.
Moving Vote of Thanks Was Not In
His Line That Nuht.

His Line That Night.
Dwight l.. Moody during bis first
visit to England attended a meeting al
which the Earl of Shaftesbury was
chairman. The duty Of proposing a
vote of thanks was assigned to him
and the announcement made:
Our American cousin. the Rev MIR
Moody of Chicago. will now move q
vote of thanks to the noble earl who
has presided on this occasion"
The whole thing was quite out OF
Mr.. Moody's line. With an utter dis
regard Of conventionality he burst upon
the audience with the bold announce
ment:
"The speaker has made two mis-
takes. To begin with. I'm not the Rev.
Mr.. Moody at all. I'm plain Dwight
L. Moody. Sunday school worker.
And then I'm not your American
cousin. By the grace of God I'm your
brother, interested with you in our Fa-
theirs work for his children.
And now about this vote Of thanks
to the noble earl for being our chair
man this evening don't see why
we should thank him any more than
be should thank us. When at one time
they offered to thank our Mr.. Lincoln
for presiding over meeting In Illinois
he stopped it. He said he'd tried to do
his duty and they'd tried to do theirs
He thought it was about an even thing
all around
That opening fairly took the breath
away from Mr. Moody's hearers. Such
talk could not be ganged by any
known standard Mr. Moody carried
his English audiences with him from
that beginning to his latest labors
