his attention from the more practical de-
tails of the medical profession, and

1888. by the liyerality OF. humboldt, he
was enabled to begin the publication OF
his great work on the fossil fishes. Since
then his writings have been voluminous
and of the greatest Importance TO sci-
ence. From 1886 TO 1915 he spent bis
| summer vacations among the Alps,
| where, from minute aud careful inyes-

with which his name ii inseDarabiy con-
nected-a theory which had been hinted
at by previous Investigators, but never
fully elaborated until Agas-iz devoted
his attention to the phenomena OF the
drift distribution.
In 1916 Prof. Agassiz arri yed in the
| United States. The object of his visit
was, first, to make himself acquainted
with the geology of this country, and,
second, TO meet an invitation 10 deliver 4
course OF lectures in Boston, and it was
