That is the regular report from alio monkey cage of Barnum's 'Circus ever since tho keepers began closing the monkeys wh'h Scott's Emul sion. Consumption was carry ing off two :thirds of them every year and the circus had to buy new ones. , One clay a keeper accident ally broke a bed tic of Scott's Emulsion near the monkey cage and the monkeys eagerly lapped it up frcmi the floor. This suggested line idea that it jniglil do them jy.iod. Since thci)tbt: monkeys hiwc received regular doses and tlbe keepers report very few deaths from consumption. Of course it's cheaper to buy Scott Emul sion than ww monkeys- and that suits -the circus men. Consumption in monkeys and in man is the same disease.
