London — A large and savage rat
recently found ita way Into the inclo-
gure where the zoo’s gray squirrels
live Before It could bo found and
destroyed five of the graceful little
fellows had been badly bitten and
were discovered with angry wounds
showing through their pretty bedrag-
gled coats
These squirrels were the first pa-
tients at the zoo’s new hospital a
beautifully equipped red brick build-
ing Just behind the reptile house
which has Just started Ita career of
usefulness Just like the London or
any other modern hospital the floors
are constructed of easily cleaned ce-
ment with curved corners Ten airy
warmed cages are situated cn the
ground floor while the upper part of
the hospital is composed of two well-
lit cheerful' wards with glass roofs
where the smaller birds and animals
will be treated
Thither the little Injured squirrels
were conveyed their hurts were
dressed with antlceptlcs and they are
now almost fully recovered
The need for such an Institution In
the gardens la undoubted There is
no more pathetic sight In the world
than that of a savage animal at-
tacked by a mortal disease The wild
j powerful creature Its coat streaked
I with sweat and Its muscles quivering
with anguish will not submit to the
well-meant ministrations of Its keep-
ers or of the medical expert and re-
fuses the food In which perhaps
healing or soothing drugs are bidden
It only demands to be left alone to
die When free the merciless mercy
of the Jungle or desert would Insure
speedy relief from its sufferings at
the fangs or claws of Us fellows
In the zoological gardens hitherto
It has seldom been possible to do
anything In such cases but to leave
the animal In Its den watched by cu-
rious visitors and allow nature to
take Its course until an expert’s cer-
tain diagnosis of a fatal termination
permits the use of the final kindness
of strychnine or a bullet
Ths bopltaIs cue book so far In-
cludes: Five gray squirrels
One fox
Two kangaroos
Ons Infant Ibex
The fox went there afflicted with e
painful canker of the ear The saw
age little creature was secured by
means of a noose on the end of a
pole which was gradually pulled
"taut He betrayed no disposition
to snap so a muzzle was dispensed
with and the ear wu dressed aa
swiftly as possible
A disfiguring skin disease has at-
tacked one of the kangaroos and his
mate has been placed with him until
It Is certain she has not also con-
tracted the same trouble Had the
pair been left In tbs cages they would
have “nosed" their healthy neighbors
in a friendly way and probably start-
ed an epidemic Curiously enough
the baby Ibex hu also an affection
of the coat
Scarcely a single 111 that mankind
is subject to but bu its parallel
among the beuts of the soo Many
diseases Indeed have been carried
to them by human Infection — notably
chest troubles and tuberculosis which
have been the scourge of the monkey
bouse Tbe higher the beast In the
scale of creation tbs more liable It is
to contract disease from Its human
visitors
That la the main reason why the
most manlike brutes — the apes — ere
wisely abut off from their admirers
by great sheets of plate glass Other-
wise a single Influenza-stricken sneeze
from a visitor might place every
chimpanzee and orang-outang on tbe
lek list
weak heart killed “Lobo" the
great gray American timber wolf It
waa diagnosed early last year from
bis distress after slight exertion An
iron tonic mixed with his meat In pill
form pulled him round wonderfully
and he never refused bis medicine
He died quietly during the night and
bis widow “Blanco swiftly told
the news with her welling lament
Visitors were recently astonished
to see a female tapir— that weird
compromise between a pig and an
elephant — wearing a heavy neckcloth
It was In reality a mild mustard plas-
ter which was tied round her neck
to alleviate a homely complaint-
mumps All tbe symptoms were
there — the glandular swelling pain
on mastication (she refused all food)
and feverishness To all Intents and
purposes It waa human mumps and
yielded to the same treatment after
the uaual period — about a fortnight
or three weeks
In the case or powerful eersge
brutes much which would do them
good has to be left undone When
Bve the full-grown chimpanzee suf-
fered from e skin trouble on her
wrists and forearms she could not be
properly handled for curative pur-
poses but whenever she strolled up
to be fed the keeper patiently and
quietly sprinkled the worst places
with powder
