FOSTER’S AMAZING ANIMALS.

AS HUMAN AS MANKIND. The most unique collection of performing animals that have ever visited these sltores, and certainly to he found at the present moment. The combine, which includes dogs, monkey's and apes, etc., can lie seen at Joyland at tiie Waikato Winter Show, where they are crealing a great sensation. The pen of the writer is unable to do justice to the performance, but a few lines in connection with the various acts would not be out of place. Zouza, Hie sacred Indian monkey (Hie only one of its species in the Dominion) among many things turns somersaults on a rolling ball and balances ilself on its bands nil a pedestal and on a chair. its imitation nr a Chinaman carrying fruit is an ileni of outstanding merit, and sels Iho spectators in roars of laughter. Rosie, Hie lilllo dog, is also as human —in fact, it has more common sense than many inen, and is more obedient than sonic of the lilllo hoys to be seen looking at it. This litlic dog can waltz, skip, jump, play cards and walk on its hind and then on its fore legs, as if it were natural for it to do so. Digger, a dog that, feigns death and also acis the lame flog when bid In do so, is a remarkable animal. To sec it jumping hurdles is worth the admittance money alone.

In addition to the above mysterious acts, further treats are in store for the onlookers. A hurdle . race between .dogs and monkeys and the chariot act, in which ihrcc large baboons lake part, cause one to laugh lo their iiearls’ content. Other animals included in this great family are five baby monkeys, which are making great friends with the wee miles. All Hie wise, visitors arc witnessing this highly educative entertainment which is, as previously slated, in Joyland at the Show. Look out Tor Foster’s amazing animals. They will not be here very much longer, so seize I lie opportunity. All Ihc animals are as quiet as lambs, with the result that no parent need have fear of their children’s safely. Webster’s entertainment is one which should be seen by every man. woman and child from 3 months to 100 years of age.
