In Borneo is the gibbon, which Is a j
small animal compared with the oiling,
weighing only about forty or ilfty 1
pounds. It Is very frail in its bodily
makeup. The head Is set squarely ou
the shoulders, and It looks upward.
When walking on the grjund It bal
ances Itself along like a walker on a
tight rope. Its remarkable power of
grasp and dexterity In using Its liuuds
are equally with the shape of Its
cranium indexes of Its superior Intelli
gence. (icrhaps because it is able to
take holil of a greater number of
thiugs and examine them. The gibbons
go in droves, whereas orangs live by
families, and one of the i::ost Interest
ing spectacles imaginable is to see a
troop of them crossing a great gap In
the forest by throwing themselves lu
succession through the air, each one
taking a swing or two t.> gather mo

great Is their agility that in executing
feats of this sort they seem like birds.
