The Tendency to Specialism.

Here is an old story in point, illustrating
conditions: A certain man, a sort of scientist
after his fashion, found an insect, which in
l1s crude way he could at once determine to
be beetle But he wished to know just what
kind of beetle that particular one happened
to be, or, in other words, to find out its name.
So, like good and patriotic citizen, he re-
ferred it to a specialist-just as a sensible
miner with broken leg would call in the serv-
ice of surgeon. He went to friend and
said:
Here's beetle Now you are an ento.
mologist; please tell me what that is"
ooh, no." said the referee, II am not al
entomolosist."
Not an entomologist9 Why, thought
that was your line"
mo; only wish were," he said, sadly.
swell, what are yous What do you call 6
beetle sharp-a coleopterist"
NO" said he, modestly, and with depre
catory air, mo, I'm not a coleopterist. Il
you insist upon knowing, might claim NOV
Frightening up, to be scarabseist: that is
you know, altogether different from being
regular coleopterist."
