ARE ALMOST HUMAN
Monkeys in Their Native Wids
Show Keen Wit.
Clever Manner in Which One of Them
Got the Best of Crocodile is
Proof Of Their Possession
Of intelligence.

The nature and character Of the
monkey are not changed by any train
ing that he may receive. All the little
tricks that may be taught him in cap
tivity will add little to what he Is
accustomed TO practice in his wild
state. The chief difference to him Is
that he has different set of victims
chance to watch the rascals In their
native wilds and native wildness find
them up to the same mischievous
pranks they play in captivity.
Every little while our expedition
passed under trees occupied by troops
of monkeys, some Of them of the large
kind that had given the explorers
much trouble on a former occasion.
One large tree in which they had es-
tablished their quarters stretched its
branches over q stream twenty yards
or more
While the leader Of the expedition
was watching the antics OF the mon
keys, two crocodiles showed their
heads just underneath and remained
stationary with their ugly snouts
sticking up in the air. In various
countries this is common dodge of
the crocodiles to entice the monkeys
within their reach. and it was ex-
pected by the witnesses of this Incl
dent that one or more of the noisy
animals would fall victims to the
gOggle-eyed monsters below, and it
was with considerable curiosity that
the result was awaited.
As soon as the black-loOking heads
popped up the monkeys became silent.
Presently one big fellow, evidently OF
authority in the monkey republic,
came down to recOnnoiter. He re-
turned, and in a few minutes came
back with long, thin stick In his
hand and accompanied by about
hundred of his friends. They began
TO chatter and to pelt their foes, but
the crocodiles took no notice. The
onlookers thought they seemed to give
a wink -Of satisfaction at seeing their
! silly victims coming within their
! reach.
Nearer and nearer they came, until
some Of them were barely six feet
| above the crOcOdiles, and the men
| watching were expecting every instant
| to see one of them dragged under the
water. All of q sudden the monkey
with the stick leaned over and drove
| it into the eye of the crocodile nearest
him. The wounded reptile sank like
| lead and was quickly followed by its
| comrade
There was no mistaking the howl of
| delight that greeted this stratagem
/ and its success. 1t was perfectly hu-
man in its tone and was taken up in
vengeful glee by all the monkeys In
| the neighborhood. The gravity of de-
meanor with which the old fellow
! committed this assault was laughable
In >the extreme. He went to work
with all the caution of an old lawyer.
! and when he had inflicted the poke he
! hauled himself up with an alacrity
! that showed he could form very
good estimation of the danger that
! he ran.

around you'll know it's not the wolves.
Say, it was some welcome surprise to
find a fire when / came in. Thought
first somebody travelling through had
put up. Then l saw those slippers ~
ing there. That was sure making me
take notice when you stepped out"
He Chuckled at the recollection.
Hazel lit the lamp, and stirred up the
fire, plying it with wood. Then she
slipped q heavy bathrobe over her
nightgown and went into the chilly
kitchen, emerging therefrom presently
with tray of food and kettle Of wa
ter to make coffee. This she set on the
fire. Wherever she moved Bill's eyes
followed her with CLEAN of JOY, tine
tured with smiling incredulousness.
When the kettle was safely bestowed
on the Goals, he drew her on his knee.
There for minute she perched in rich
content. Then she rose.
"Come very quietly with me, Bill"
she whispered, with a fine air of 'mys-
terry. Il want to show you something"
"Sure! What is it?' he asked.
"Come and see," she smiled and
took up the lamp. Bill followed obedi-
| entity.
Close up beside her bed stood a
small, square crib. Hazel set the lamp
on a table and, turning to the bundle
of blankets which filled this new piece
of furniture, drew back one corner. re-
vealing round, puckered-up infant
face.
For the love OF Mike!" Bill NUT
tered. 'Is it's it"
IT'S our son." she whispered proud
ly. "Born the tenth of January
three weeks ago today. Don't, don't
you great bear-you'll wake him."
For Bill was bending down to peer
at the tiny mOrsel of humanity, with q
strange, abashed smile on his face, his
big. clumsy fingers touching the soft,
pink cheeks. And when he stood up
he drew long breath, and laid one
arm across her shoulders.
"Us two and the kid" he said whim-
sically. 1T should be the hardest COM
bination in the world to bust Are you
happy. little person?
She nodded, clinging to him, word
lessly happy. And presently she COW
cred the baby's face, and they went
back to sit before the great fireplace.
where the kettle bubbled cheerfully
and the cracking blaze sent forth its
challenge to the bevy Of frost sprites
that held high revel outside.
And. after a time, the blaze died to
heap of glowing embers, and the
forerunning wind Of a northeast storm
soughed and whistled about a house
deep wrapped in cOntented slumber, a
house no longer divided against itself,

United States Buys Feathers.

Although the export of feathers
(duck. fowl, etc.) from China as a
whole has decreased somewhat during
the past few years, owing to the elm
ination Of the German buyers, says q
Shanghai newspaper. the export Of
feathers from China to America has
shown great increase since the out
break of the war, America having
stepped In to take almost the Identical
quantity that Germany had previously
