Monkeys at the Zoo and the Missing Watch. THE zoo was suffocating in the rays of tbe afternoon sun. 1 paused for a moment to watch a moukey with a pathetic face absentmindedly. .> 1>M AM *- Mk /It*. piltkf frfisv f A 11 n i' I r IA fi _ auuuai suuij, ciuau iuc tan ui a oktctjing relative above. The sleeping relative awoke on the floor very talkative and thrilled, but the originator of the pleasantry was out of reach aud with the face of one on the verge of tears. MWot a pity they 'ave tails," said a voice beside me. He was a little scrubby man. with a soiled collar, a straw hat aud a faded frock coat . I paid no attention. He looked about him rapidly, then ! came closer and in a hoarse whisper said: "1 say, guv'nor, d'you knot* wot I calls it? Why. it's a tragedy." "Ah." I returned vacuelv. "Yus, a tragedy, becorse why? We 'are no tails nor our parents neither. Ain't that so?" I endeavored to convey that I was prepared to swear that my father, once a K. C? had never within my knowledge mentioned the fact in my hearing. He assumed the attitude of a modest man caught in the right "There y' are." he said. There was a pause. A series of shrill screams in a distant part of the room suggested another stroke of humor on even more ambitious lines. The little scrubby man smiled knowingly. "There y* are again?tryin' to sit on their tails and 'ide their feelin's." I was a little perplexed. "Talk of the fall,'* he snorted, with considerable scorn. "When we iorst our tails we became deceitfuL And why? Because we 'ad nothin* to give us away. They know it; look at 'em. They'd give anything to get rid of 'em. It's like carryin' a truth gauge on your waistkit" He came closer and stared triumphantly up into my face. He was in a glow with eloquence. He tapped me playfully on the chest "Imagine it?your thoughts, 'opes, most sacred feelin's at the mercy of a cruel gloatin' world just becorse you 'ave a tail. For instance, you're pro posin' to the parents of your young lady. Why. your tall would be between your legs trying to get out o' sight. An' what's the effect on their tails? Curlin' like 'oops. They'd know you 'aven't a brass farthin' at once." "You have no reason to suppose*'? I began hotly. "No 'arm meant, mister," he interposed soothingly. "Then think of 'avin* to attend funerals and sicb-like. No matter 'ow gloomy your countenance. wot if your tail was waggin' like a riprap through pure light 'eartedness?" I admitted the prospect was worthy or thought. MOr in business. 'ow could you nam? a price witih any confidence if your tail was on the floor and 'ad all the air of a wrong un?" The sun bad suuk at last Shadows crept over the room. In the comer opposite a silent baboon stood statuesque against the evening sky. "Of co'rse I'm not deny in' there would be advantages. I'm no dorg in the manger. I'm willin' to come out and share and share alike, be it argyment or anything. You'll be sayin* wot satisfaction to the orator to 'ear | the thump or approvur xaus or me actor In the scene where the 'eroine carsts her 'elpless babe into the racin' mill stream. Why. it would be easy to jump in after a glance at the droopin' tails in the stalls." * I nodded thoughtfully. "I must be goin' 'ome now." he remarked after a pause. "I knew by the looks of you I'd got to deal with a shrewd un. man of the world, clear 'eaded, farseein* gentleman." For a moment I wished that be had worn a tail that might have betrayed something of his purpose, which seemed to rae rather obscure. Then I dropped him out of my uiind and began to wonder how late it was. But my watch had gone.?Punch. From Missouri. An attorney was addressing a jury on behalf of a prisoner. "Gentlemen." he said, "witnesses have sworn that they saw the accused fire his gun: they have sworn they saw the flash and heard the report; they fall flat; they have sworn that this bullet was extracted from Pete Jackson's body: but, gentlemen, in the namp of Insfiee I nsk. vou where is the evidence th.it the bullet hit Fete Jackson ?"?Tit-Bits.
