Wattana, a Bornean orangutan, was born in a Belgian zoo in 1995. Her mother refused to care for her, so she was transferred to a German zoo specializing in baby great apes. As an infant, Wattana was fascinated when the zookeepers tied their shoes and taught herself how to tie knots. When Belgian author Chris Herzfeld met Wattana in a Paris zoo, she was thoroughly impressed with the orangutans knot-tying abilities. Herzfeld wanted to share Wattana's story and the stories of other great apes living in zoos. Thus, Herzfeld wrote Wattana, a book that provides an intimate look at great apes living in captivity.

Select the best evidence to support the statement that in the late 1800s a law made it easier for magazine companies to do business.
At the turn of the 20th century, short stories were a preferred form of entertainment in the United States. This was a boom time for magazine publishing, owing part to the developments in offset printing technology as well as to the Postal Act of 1879, which had granted magazines discounted mailing rates. Publications such as the Ladies Home Journal, The Saturday Evening Post, and The Delineator, all of which published short stories, sold more than half a million copies per issue. The authors of these stories were well known at the time and often well paid.
