The Human Race Running 70 Brain.

II there is to be so much head work.
what will become of us all? II both
men and women are to develop more
and more their brains. we shall soon be
not far from the realization Of the
words of Diderot, who said: 1--WE walk
so little, we work so little and we think
70 much, that / do not despair Of man
ending by being nothing but a head"
Figure to yourself civilized man 100 or
200 years hence. when manual labor
shall have been entirely replaced by ma
chinery. and when the dreams Of Social
lists shall have been realized, and man,
wen in the lowest grade Of society,
shall be able TO gain his livelihood by
working say three or four hours out of
the twenty-four. The tendency, you
hours Of labor. In many parts Of Eng
land, for instance. the hours Of labor
are little more than half what they were
Fifty years ago. Imagine. then, the
movement spoken of by Diderot con-
stantly progressing. and man walking
less and less, owing to the increased IA
cilities of communication and locomo-
ton. and working less and less, owing
to the constantly increasing use and per-
lection of machinery. and thinking more
and o out of pure distraction and
out of the ennui of civilization, Imag-
inc woman, thanks to the realization Of
the projects of Mr.. Camille See, and TO
the establishment of Girton Colleges all
over the world. imagine woman walk
ing even less than she does now. work
ing less, and thinking more and more!
What shall We come TO, great Darwin?
Does not the theory of evolution point
to the inevitable realization of Diderot's
words? Will not our legs wither away
and return to the rudimentary stage like
our tails? Will not our arms and bodies
diminish, and muscles for which there
is mo- longer any use dry up, and their
elements be absorbed by the brain and
head, which viii acquire the phenom-
email proportions of a car~icature?-
