THE GORILLA. The artist here shows the Gorilla in his native forest and one cannot but be startled at the wonderfully human-like face. The 



great Ape is in a striking pose, being at rest, yet alert, as the keen, hazel eyes plainly show. The large nostrils are wide open, the wide mouth firmly closed, 

 and the chin is resting upon the back of the huge muscular right hand that in turn lays upon the left fore-arm extended across the breast. At the first ap- 

 proach of danger all would be changed ; the hair of the forehead and head would become erect and vibrate rapidly and its huge bellowings and violent beating 

 of the chest would send awe if not terror to the bravest of Men.
