Suzy favors the higher crowns
making them a pronounced note in her

effects. Her large hats have soft fiaring
brims. and those that are not actually
soft are made to look SO by having q
dent or break to the brim which takes
away that straight severe line that sc
many OF the big picture hats have. She

Buddhist Disciple Was Positive That
the Animal Understood Speech
He Addressed to Him.

A third degree disciple of Buddha
who halls from the famous Yellow
mountains (Huang SHAM says they
are the home of tigers, wildcats, wild
horses, goats boars and an animal re-
sembling panther. with bristly hair
and impervious skin-and monkeys.
The monkeys he divided into two
classes, one the ordinary brown
monkey with a tail, the other white
breasted and white faced, with gray
back and but little smaller than a
man. He intimated that this type
manifested a degree Of intelligence
when spoken to, very much resembled
man, and was tailless.
To this second class belongs what
he called "the Great White Monkey
King" ruler of all the beasts Of the
mountains, and described as being
more than twenty feet tall, with arms
ten feet long. four tusks each at Least
a foot long, q face and eyes proper
tionately large. and voice that made
the earth tremble whenever 1t spoke.
He said he had seen this great mon
key king twice-once at a distance OF
half a ii, and once when he dropped
dawn from a high cliff and stood with
In fifteen feet Of it. On this occa-
sion the monkey king was attended by
five smaller monkeys.
He attempted to address them,
whereupon they all sat down and gave
respectful hearing, punctuating his re-:
marks with asserting grunts which In
dicated that the message was being
understood. When he had finished his
speech the monkey king arose EauIter-
ing something and started away.
