period were born unto them aud their
children the anthroPomorphIc pri-
mordial types
''lS. The homunculus, the progha-
thus, the troglodyte, the autochEhon,
the terragen; these are the genera
tions Of primevaI man.
"l9 Aud primevzl man was naked
and not ashamed, but lived In quad
rumSOOus Innocence, and struggled
nightly to hsfmonizs with the en-
YIronment.
''29 And by Inheritance and natu-
raj selection did he progress from the
stable and homogeneous To the COM
plex and heterogeneous for the
weakest died and the strongest grew
and multiplied.
"2l. And man grew q thumb for
that he had need OF 1t, and developed
eaptivities for prry. ff.l,in,
''22. For, bshOld, the swiftest men
caught the most animal, and the
swiftest animals got away from the
most men; wherefore tho slow AMI
mails were eaten and the slow men
starved 10 death.
''23. And as types were differentiat-
ed the weaker types continually disap-
peared.

violence for man strOve with MAJ
and tribe with tribe, whereby they
killed of the weak and foolish and
secured the survival OF the fttest,"
That will do for q specimen. It.
