"Hello, brother," said a well-dressed
man to the ape, upon entering the In
closure. "How are you fselinjr this
morning?"
The ape, however, scorned its ques
tioner and turned from nim in aisaain
as much as to say, "You're not in my
class."
Nero, the big African lion, is one of
the notable attractions at the Zoo.
Thousands upon thousands of people
all over the city and throughout the
Northwest remember Nero and the p
lar bear, after they have forgotten
everything else seen in the Zoo. Nero
Is one of the pacers; he Is never at
rest, except when sleep overcomes him,
and Mayor Lane says this indicates
that the great, powerful beast wants
his freedom, and that he is trying to
make people understand that he wants'
to get out into the open. Nero is lat,
and so far as appearances go looks
good.
The collection of smaller wild ani
mals, such as the wolves, Alaskan
dogs, coyotes, badger and the gray fox
are always on the move, but the most
remarkable of the entire tribe Is tn

evident dissatisfaction Is really th
prime factor In bringing about the agi
tation to make life more pleasant foi
the animals at the Zoo or mercifully
chloroform them and mount them for
educational exhibits. It Is said that
the bear Is too far out of his native
state to be made comfortable; that h
demands arctic conditions, and never
can be contented elsewhere It Beem
to be the disposition of Mayor Lan
members of the Park. Board and Secre
tary Shanahan, representing the Hu
mane Society, to chloroform the bear
and perhaps others of the less domes
ticated specimens and' thus end their
suffering, if they really suffer, and yet
to preserve to a large degree the edu- 1
catlonal value of the animals by hav
ing them mounted and put on exhibi
tion. Parkkeeper Mische is preparing to
compile a list of the more hardy ani
mals and birds, those that thrive in
captivity In the Oregon climate, as di
rected by the Mayor and members of
the Park Board. He will submit this
list at the next regular session, if pos
sible, after which the members of the
board will determine what course they
will pursue In the effort to eliminate
what, if any. suffering there Is among
the animals in the Zoo.

PARK ZOO ANIMALS BLISSFULLY IGNORANT
OF HUBBUB OVER THEIR CONDITION
Polar Bear and African Lion Pace Cells Unceasingly, but Most of Other Beasts Seem Fairly "Well Contented.
O'T at the City Park Zoo there
was the usual "doings" yesterday
among: the animals, and there ap
peared to be no concern among them
over the agitation in their behalf,
started by Mayor Lane early last week.
Notwithstanding the fact that the May
or and members of the Park Board, as
well as Secretary Shanahan, of the Ore
gon Humane Society, have threatened
to end the career of the polar bear
with chloroform, the old white brute
does not care anything about It, so far
as could be discovered by close scru
tiny. In his iron-barred cage, he
stood, peering Into the open fields be
yond. Swinging his head to and fro. (
to and fro unceasingly, it seemed that
he was longing for liberty. Old Nero,
the African lion, paced rapidly back
and forth in his little pen, evidently in
search of a means of escape; the Alas
kan dogs were nervous, and ever on
the move, as were also the coyotes, the'
gray fox and the badger.
As far as can be Judged by the or
dinary individual, after a trip through
the Zoo, nearly all the animals are
happy and contented, but the actions
of the polar bear, the coyotes, the
Alaskan dogs, the fox and the badger
Indicate that they are dissatisfied with
their lot. This is likewise true of the
old lion. Year tn and. year out, these
animals show their displeasure "at con
finemc t by their restlessness, but it is
as yet unknown to science whether or
not there Is any mental suffering, ac
cording to Dr. J. R. Wilson, chairman
of the Park Board. He declares that
there is not. but Mayor Lane holds to
the contrary, saying that all beasts,
birds and reptiles, natives of the
wilds, are never contended In captivity.
Nobody kno -,-s the degree of their con
tentment in their native liberty.
One fact that seems evident to even
the casual observer is che inadequate
room devoted to the Zoo. l one of the
animals or birds has sufficient space,
and many people believe that this alone
contributes to their discomfort. It Is
the intention of the Park Board, how
ever, to p wide more ground, and to so
distribute the various collections of
specimens as to make them more con
tented, even tho Th they be in captiv
ity. Tv herd of buffalo, confined to a
very small inclos-jre. do not present a
good appearance. There is no green
pasture for them, and they have no
room to run. Their pen is not well
kept, and they look dirty and neg
lected. The various breed of deer look well,
being- sleek and fat, and they are
clean and do not appear dissatisfied
with their lot, although they have but.

The monkeys, the baboon and the ape

they were engaged in the gentle art
of eating peanuts, chasing each other

Superfluous Hair
Doctors Say There Is a Harmless, Safe
and Sure Way to Remove Superfluous
Hair.
Dr. Fowler, who "has made a thorough
study of superfluous hair growths, speaking
of a case in which he ueed DeMlracle. says:
"I applied DeMlracle. and in a few minutes
I had her Hp devoid of Hair without any
naln whatever. I instructed her to call

found about one-fourth of the hair roots
wert not killed by the first application, so
I made & second application. I saw her
again in about a month, and found her Up
aa clear of hair as an infant's. I can heartily
recommend DeMlracle for all the uses for
which the manufacturers recommend it."
It Is well to remember that DeMlracle is
absolutely non-poisonous, antiseptic and
germicidal, therefore it will not produce
blood poisionlng or. eczema -which Is so com
mon with hair removers. DeMlracle is the
only method In the world which Is endorsed
by physicians. surgeons, dermatologists,

EXPERTSJN WOOD
Tonal Beauty of the Stradivarius Vio
lin Utilized by Modern
Piano-Makers.
A secret of the pre-eminent tone beauty
of the Stradivarius and Cremona vio
lins lies in the expert selection of -tha
wood. This is equally true of the mod
ern piano, and in no part more neces
sary than in the sounding board. In
the Kimball piano the sounding board
is made of the best-selected mountain
spruce of firmer, finer grain than any
grown in lower altitudes. As a conse
quence they yield a more powerful
singing- tone, the wood being com
pressed in such a manner as to obtain
the tonal resonance of the rare violin,
