PLATE IV. JOE THE CHIMPANZEE. 



A distinguished member of the Edwards' Zoological Exhibition. Mr. J. 

 S. Edwards writes that this photograph is of a male chimpanzee, about six 

 years old, and the most intelligent animal he has ever owned. Joe always 

 wears a sweater, and when enjoying himself in play his laugh sounds more 

 human than that of any other ape. In his actions he is very like a child 

 and suggests at once a relationship to homo sapiens.
