Monkeys
'"All well?all happy?lots;
of fun". That is the regular
report from the monkey cr.:
c f Barnum's Circus ever sim
the keepers began dosing th.j
monkeys with Scott's EmuiCir?r?

every year and the circus had ;
ato buy new ones.
. One day a keeper accidentally
broke a bottle of Scott\s
Emulsion near the monkey
cage and the monkeys eagerly
lapped it up from the floor.
This suggcstechthe idea that it
might do them good. Since
then the moh-kcys l^c.vc deceived
regular doses and the keepers
report very few deaths from
consumption. Of course its
cheaper to buy Scott's Emulsion
than new monlin t- ,
- J^ ..nv.
that suits the circus men. .
Consumption in monkeys j
and in man is the same disease.
