Text Appearing Before Image:
branches these creatures take their nose in one hand, to prevent itsbeing hurt by the branches. They are a very pretty color, a bright chestnut red, relievedby golden yellow. Here is another of the family, rather more interesting thanthe long-nosed gentry. It is the Marmoset, and is found inSouth America. It is not much larger than a squirrel, and isquite as graceful and cunning in its ways. It lives on insects andfruits, and spends its time in the branches of trees. It is socialin its ways, being always found in small troops in the woods. 52 LIIILE FOLKS
Text Appearing After Image:
It makes a very pretty pet, living contentedly in a cage, andhaving plenty of soft silk fur. This family is among the mostintelligent of its kind. It is said even to recognize pictures. Agentleman who experimented with some of them found they wouldshrink away from pictures of cats, or of wasps, as they would fromlive cats and wasps, but when shown the picture of a grasshopper,or other harmless insect, they would snatch at it. This little fellow in the picture—the common Marmoset—isornamented with a tuft of white hair on each side of his head.Others of the family have black tufts, and still others have a sortof plume over the forehead. In the London Zoological Gardens, are kept nearly two hun-dred monkeys, and it is a very interesting sight to see them dine.Their dinner is cooked and served at four oclock. They have avariety of things to eat—boiled potatoes and carrots, baked apples,nuts, and grapes, pies and puddings, oranges and fruit. This foodis cut up, dishes are used and on
