A Sailor bound on a long voyage
took with him a Monkey to amuse him
while on %shipboard. AS he sailed off
the coast of Greece, a violent tenn
pest arose, in which the ship was
wrecked, and he, his Monkey, and all
the crew were obliged to swim for
their lives. A Dolphin saw the Mon
key ~contending with the waves, and
s%upposing him to be a man Whom lie
is always said to b%efriend), came and
placed himself under him, to convey
him on his back to the shore. When
the Dolphin arrived with his burden
in sight of land not far from Athens,
he demanded of the Monkey If he
were an Athenian, who replied that
he was, and that he was descended
from one of the most noble families
of that city. He then inquired if he
knew the Piraeus (the famous har-
Dor of Athens). The Monkey, suppos-
ing that a man was meant, answered
that he knew him very well and that
he was an intimate friend. The Dol
phin, indignant at these f~alsehoods,
dipped the Monkey under the water
and drowned him.-From Aesop's Fa-
bles.
Took the Hint.
Once when inspecting a sanitary
district in the Pacific division Of the
canal Colonel Gorgas, now general,
came TO a fume that was to drain a
swamp in which malariaI mosquitoes
were breeding. He turned suddenly
to the members of his party and said;
"You have all probably heard about
a Spaniard at Gatun, who was clear.
ing trash away from the mouth OF a
big drain pipe during a food, being
caught in the rush of water and car
ried through. The first thing he said
when he was rescued was. "In bet no
one in the Pacific division can do any
thing like that and live to tell IT,
and" continued the colonel, peering
into the 1ume. Il believe he was
right"
The hume was cleaned out the next
day.
