Entered an aecond-claaa matter July 7, UN, at Zoorllle Post Office, Grant Park, slider Act of the Junglcbladt, March A 1F». "It la Indeed a desirable thing to b« well defended, bat the glory belongs to o«r noccstora.''— Plutarch. Home—Thera’s No Place Like It. ••(Jive the Human hla dues," la an old saw which ehould be often sharp ened and always kept free of rust. If there bo any real prejudice between the Animal Kingdom and the Human let ue proceed to cut it asunder as both rec ognise "There Is no place like home, sweet home." Anything that even In- timatee home, if the likeness be cun ningly wrought. Is dear to the heart of the wanderer. Let ua continue to voice facte—no Imitation of that far- off land we love, the Jungle, could be more cleverly constructed than the home which the Monk family now In habit!, thanks be to the Humana. The wide-spreading oak with every facility for the exercising of limb, the sleeping quarter* where at the pleaaure of the family bedlam can be raised, In fact, the Incloaure hold* within every Inch of Its spacious circumference appara- . tus whera the genius of the monkey shines. Llstenl The Telephone. Cause always precedes effect—ex cent In the case of a railroad accident— to at this Juncture, let ua remark, ad hering to the rule—because there are no overworked telephone operators, the telephone service In the new Monk home la excellent and affords wireless amusement for the whole Monk family. •Prlts Poem.

Far be It from the editor to harp on this subject It la the policy of the Zoovllle Chat ter, and let It be thus dearly un deratood, to avoid as much as posil ble the unpleas ant; but after all, human nature la Interesting If tainted, so, hop ing a healthy warning may be gathered from an occasional expose of these less In- t e 1 llgent beings, for whom w e nurse a crying pity, bear, dear readers, with the little .sketches which will appear "every little once and a while.” Natural History. The Kangaroo la the animal whose tale was made famous by Rodger Brothers, "The Tale of a Kangaroo" Is a song, therefore, the Kangaroo Is always happy for It la always wag ging a song, but, however. It would not sell the wag for a aong. The Kangaroo uses this tale for a walking stick, and, If a tale be an untruth, then the Kangaroo le a very good animal, for It stamps down the lie. In- ctdentally the Kangaroo la the only baby carri age ever seen In Australia. Improves the Flower Beds By Telephone. In the region of the lake and oth er parts of the Park country a great many Im provements are being made o n the flowerbeds by Gardener Frits Roetter, a human. Strange I Mr. Love Dove said Friday that almost night ly throughout the Park country strange creatures were heard coo. Ing and Imitating other characteris tics of his family. When asked who told him so, he replied, “A bird.' G RJE A T WAVE OF PR06RESS SWEEPS ZOOVILLE. Condensed News. Sergeant Jim la a good Shepherd, and that no one will deny, espect ally not Joe Car ter. Joe Carter la 12 years old and the king of Zoo vllle, by right of age, years of cltt- xenshlp and Roy. al Lion blood. It Is ‘rumored that Sergeant Jim and King Joe are very close friends, for It la believed that the Human holds some valuable se crets of the ani mal kingdom, as he and the King are often seen In close conference. Birds to Have Home. Plans, specifica tions, materials and all other pre liminary features of a great build ing are now ready and the -actual work of building a beautiful home for the Bird fam ily has commenc ed. The contracts let to Mr. Human stipulate that the building Is to be complete and In shape to be occu pied within a moon. The building Is to be somewhat similar to the new Monk home and only a short dis tance removed from this elegant edifice. In the center will be a large oak tree, through the limbs and leaves o f which the birds can fly and Jump. 'Gator’s Building, has The great wave of progress also extended other quarters, the Alligators, to be apeclflc. Near the lake wilt be built a new bom* for thee* aquescent friends. The new home will be construct ed entirely of con. Crete' and work will commence within a few sun seta The coat of the structure can on ly be estimated, but from comps tent authority I It understood that It costs the park board much time and worry. The ’Gator fam 11 y consists some twelve Indl vlduals and the family Is worthy of the new pleas ure* which will eoon be thelra ‘‘Society Women.” M u 11 a Fllrtum ("society women," salil to be native term) Inhabits the earth and Chlca- (o, especially pro file In Paris, New York and other places where no one cares.

The multa fllrtum re sembles, or rath- Imitatea the Kangaroo, which Is embarrassing— to the Kangaroo, the vital differ ence being that the Kangaroo Is sometimes seen with Its young. This species of human la neither guided by sense nor Intuition, but by Fashion, i omntpotsnt I d bowed down be for* and worship ed by all the spe clea. Multa Fllrtum will be recognis ed by the peoullar shading of the hair, dark near the head and yel low further out; It Is untamable, swift, adopts a reddish coloring of the face, aleepa In the day and keeps others awake at night. It Is never found alone, but usually with some other human' mate. FREAK POLICIES ISSUED BY INSURANCE COMPANIES The amaxlng scope of Insurance grows greater day by day, and now It Is astonishing how many of the con tingencies of life may be provided against In that way. Up to a short time ago In Boston there was an In surance company known as the Birth Insurance Company, which Insured young married couples and paid a cer tain amount on the appearance of a youngster In tbe household. So many people took advantage of the benefit* ol this company that the birth rate of Boston was perceptibly Increased and the company recently went Into the hands of a receiver; Great musicians like Kubelik and Pmlerewakl have their hands, Ungers snd arms - Insured for large amounts against any accident which might for ever prevent the further exercise of their wonderful talents, and at the last appearance of Madame Patttl, her manager had her voice Inaured so that every performance for which she was scheduled and which she might be un able to appear In, he would be reim bursed for In caae he had to hand back the office receipts to the ticket- holders. In Germany are companies which In sure against loss of sight. Opthmal- mla, which Is more prevalent there than In this country, may be Insured against up to the age of 16 years by an annual payment of sixpence. If the Insured's sight falls and he has to be provided with glasses, he receives treatment free as long aa he needs It. In New York, an enterprising opti cian has started an Insurance company which In case a member breaks his glasses they are replaced free of charge, under consideration of the payment of a certain sum every year. He m said to have Increased his busi ness 300 per cent by this method. There Is also a recent organisation there known as the rain Insurance com< pany, and the payment of a small year, l.v sum entitles the member to a rain check, which he can exchange for an umbrella at any one of a large num ber of stations situated all over the city at convenient points. In case he Is caught out In the wet. Lloyds, of London, the great organl sat I on originally begun for the pur' Pose of taktng only mercantile risks, now assumes all aorta of chances on almost any contingency and has agent* all over the world which bind It to take many peculiar chances. Per forming animals are many times writ' ten by It, a chlmpanxee which waa highly educated- and on exhibition In this country not long ago, having been written for $60,000. A man whose •sard woe hla pride and hla livelihood In a dime museum, had It Insured by the same organisation for $6,000 at a premium of 1 per cent. Insurance against water damage by sprinklers In mercantile houses Is now a well-de veloped line at Insurance written by many companies. As far as weather Insurance goes, tradesmen In England have been known to Insure themselves against loss by a rainy day when great public function was expected to take place, or In the case of private outdoor entertainments a wet day can be guarded against by Insurance so that the expenses of preparation will not be entirely lost If nobody comes. "SECRET" INSURANCE PROTECTS EMPLOYER New Form of Fidelity Policy Reaches the Market This Week. Elegant Silver The excellence and popu larity of Maier & Berkele silver is due largely to the tasteful designs and artistic patterns we carry in stock. If you want any of the new things, we have them. We study the modes in these lines as attentively as smart dressers study the current fashions. Maier & Berkele A new form of fidelity Insurance hi been put upon the market thl* week by the National Surety Company, of New York, of which Black A Draper ore general agents for Georgia, with of fices In the Empire building. This form of Insurance Is Issued for limited amounts against loss through larceny and embexilement, and the new feature lies In the feet that It can bo placed by an employer upon any em ployee, without the application of or even a knowledge of the latter. In usual cases of bonding much detailed Information la required of the appli cant. Many employers need protection of this kind for smell amounts, and yet for personal reasons do not want to require certain employees to apply for the regulation bond. "Fidelity Insur ance," as It hoe been christened, Is In tended by the company to fill this want.
