Loads of Fun at the Zoo During Feeding Time W ASHINGTON.—If you are fortunate enough to strike the roo about three o’clock, feeding time, you will find plenty to nmu«c you. The bears manifest great sign* of hunger, striding hack and forth In their dens, setting Up great bear cries and striking their long claws across the bars of their cages, like giant ukulele players. When the keejier conies, with hi* wheelbarrow of bread, the fuu begins. The keeper's aim la to give an equal number of loaves to each hear, hut the pig In the bear sometimes upsets this

Calculation.

When one big bog—I mean bear— grabs twice as many louves as is his due. it Is up to the keeper to make give up the extra loaves. This la not an easy task, especially when It muri be done from the outside of the cage. But with the aid of a long iron bar. with which sundry thumps are adm Ini stored on the seemingly concrete head of the bear, the unlawfully aetxed bread finally goes to the right bear. The baby hlppoi-otamun, growing bigger every day. Is another favorite animal. During the recent hot days both baby and mamma enjoyed tbemaetvo- eating hay, seemingly unmindful cf the beat. One day last week a young woman with a scientific turn of mind experimented with potato chips and iheir availability as animal food. With a big bag of potato chips she went through the xoo “Hying them out" on the animals. Some animals liked the chips *nd others turned up their noses at theta. Animals, it may be remarked, really turn up their noses at food for

which ihey do not care.

Some of the monkeys eat potato chips, the experiment showed, while other brands of monkeys will have nothing to do with them. The exact result Cf the c-x{>criment the young woman refused to make public. She said she was saving the Information for nn article, in which she

Papyrua on Which the Desires of Utah Wert Recorded Has Recently Been Discovered in « Good State of Preservation. Utah. Hie Egyptian, looked out from beneath his shaggy eyebrows across the Nile, where the eternal Pyramids shimmered in the heat against the cloudless sky. God.* of Egypt I How dim were those illicit of stone! In the bright light of the sun god. Ra. he should have seen those man-made mountains clearly. Shades of his ancestors! Ills eyes were dimming fast! He was getting old—very old. so he suddenly realized. He looked into the basin of the fountain in the courtyard. The image reflected made him conscious, for the first time, of hla swiftly approaching end. He sank down upon the fountain's rim and mused U|>on the shortness of life. Its varying fortunes and the prospects af the future life—according to the beliefs of himself and

his fathers.

Ah. well, be was ready to die. He did not fear after death to take the journey with the sun god. Ha. In ibe Boat of a Million Yean, to the Fields of Peace. No, by Amen, the god of Thebes! Had not Utah led a good

life?

Yea, he had always been just, merciful and kind to his servants and hla household. They had lacked nothing while he lived, nor hud his wife. Sheftu. the daughter of Sat Sepdu. But. after he was gone—nh. Pharaoh. the great one who gives life to hla people—would his memory be sufficient to keep her t.nm want or mistreatment? Would she ever be set out

the wid-

ows of others bad been in the past? A chill. : harper even than the chill of old age. shook him. It was the chili

of Xear for his beloved.

Then n happy thought wanned hla

veins again.

The people of his household and hla city ever had listened aud obeyed his spoken and written word during hla life. His words by voice or writing were considered authority and wholesomely respected. Doubtless, then, would hla written words be followed when he was in the Fields of Peace. Strange, neither he nor anyone else had thought of such a thing before. So with reed*, fluid anu papyrus ho wrote in iNuiutlful picture writing. That happened more Hum IJWO years ago. However, the papyrus has kept In a good state of preservation all those centuries and was recently discovered by excavators. Translated. It proved to be the will or legacy of i Utah, allowing his wife. “Nileftu. daughter of Sat Sepdu of G.-sab," four I Eastern stave* and “the right to dwell In n.y h<>u*e without allowing her to be put forth oa the ground by any per
