abortion We have seen thtt in the plant lie the
germs OF the coming com. They have at first in

op with the rest Of the yet immature body. But
there comes time WHEN every germ is inspired
with life of lis own and il turns upon the body and
literally feeds upon It and consumes nearly all its
juices. The moment the seed Of the scepue reach
