II appearances go for anything the
two recent murder trials that have At
1acted universal attention 20 to prove
that medical science has produced a
new kind Of human being-a man with
out moral nature. Both Holmes and
Durrant have listened to the stories Of
the most Gendish crimes without q
quaver. The crimes themselves show
that the murderers were devoid Of SEN
timent-wholly destitute of feeling.
These men through their training In
medicine have apparently come to look
on human life as scientific fact SOLE
ly. Life to them Is the active princi-
ple,' as chemists say. Of existence, as
nicotine is Of tobacco, or a. any other
basic acid is Of any other product of
nature. Life is a scientific component
Of the body and may be treated as any
other member. The soul. the sentiment
and all the great mysteries Of existence
seem to them only fancies and super
