QUEER TALES FROM
ANIMAL KINGDOM
Monkeys see stereoscopically, i. e.,
two images are seen at the same
time, thus giving more than a single
view; this enables them to judge -more
accurately of objects than other
animals can.
Monkeys have four hands. Scien
tists assert that a monkey has no
feet; they call his four legs hands;
the presence of the fingers and
thumb is what gives the monkey his
wonderful dexterity and agility.
Monkeys do not live long in captivity,
and thus the population of a monkey
house is constantly changing.

THERE!
STRAIGHT t
"Oh, captain," came a groan from
a seasick passenger, half reeling in a
deck chair, "how far are we off
land?"
"Mile and a half," came the reply.
"Thank heaven! In what direc
tion, captain?"
A twinkle came for a moment Into
the eye of the brusque old sea-dog.
"Straight down!" he grunted.
