ZOO SIGHTS
Sow you." said the Rhesus Mon
key, "can be made a pet of. as you're
amaJU, daloty, and you bare nice man
ners. "You eat your food nicely, but,
above all, you're pleasant That's
y they file ymi for a pet."
That! soT said the Bonneted Ma
caque, as he ate bis breakfast of egg
and milk, "many of my family have
been pets of people.
They Bsy we're the beet monkeys
to have as pets. Just as you say.
"We eat what people eat, which, of
eattrae, yon da
"Bat when we get our food we're

"lou'd be a nice-looking monkey X
yon dktnl always scowl and wrinkle
up your furehead.
"TToue not very big you're about
the size of a ring-tailed monkey, and
a ring-tailed monkey Is Just an aver
age slae monkey.
"So, as far as your size goes, you
would make a nice pet.
"Bat that Isn't enough.
"Now, wherever I am, here or in my
borne In the East Indies, I am always
pleasant and have a nice, good-natured,
friendly disposition."
"Now, I think It Is too bad that I
must be cross.
"Often people think all monkeys are
cprra, because they've only known
Qbesus Monkeys.
"1 have to be, because ft Is too late
t$.SKDd my ways or change my habits
As cbange the family ways.
We've been cross for years, all of
We? famous for being cross and
disagreeable.
"And we cannot make ourselves all
er again.
""JTou see," the Rhesus Monkey con
tinued, "we come from India. There

they considered us sacred, and so they
"have pampered us, and because we
ihave been spoiled we have become dis
agreeable." HJlmS sps too bad," said the Bon
neted Maccque, "too bad. Tour size
and the food you like wouldn't bother
jnynne, but your crossness would!"
But in another pnrt of the zoo the
members of the collared peccary fam
ily were talking.
"It seems to me," said one of the
collared peccary family, "that we're
very r.lcv."
"I think so, too," said another mem
ber of the family.
Now the collared peccary family, as
you know, is n family of wild swine
and this Ptectal family lived In a zoo.
"You sees" snld the first collared
peocary, "we come from the tropics.
That's where It is warm and where
things grow so beautifully. But I can't
go on to talk ahout scenery and birds
and sky, because a collared peccary Is
too much like his cousin, the pig, to
care for beauty.
"But I think we're nice because we
don't grumble about the weather.
There are some creatures who go
a-vlsltlng cnother country and come
home and say :
" 'Dear me. It wasn't like this out
here. The sun used to shine. We
d'dn't have these rainy days!'
"They come home and are not at
all satisfied with their homes. But
we come from real tropics and we
don't complain at nil about the zoo."
"That's so," agreed the other mem
bers of the collared peccary family.
"We dig In the ground with our pig
like snouts and we lie down in the
pimshlne npd dream while folks gaze
i-t our gray and black bushy bodies.
But we aren't forever wishing we
were somewhere else," continued the
first collared peccary speaker.
"Why should we wish to be some
where else?" asked another member
of the family. "It wouldn't get us
anywhere. We aren't fairies and we
can't make wishes come true !"
"No, we're not fairies," said a third
collared peccary, "we're wild pigs, and
pigs and fairies are different as dif
ferent can be, heigh ho!"
So the whole family took a nap,
and, lying side by sldo, they dreamed
of the dinner they would have when
they woke up I
