the starting of the human race are
the same accounts he. makes an ap-
! palling Misrepresentation. 81
Prefer, IL you will, Darwin's Origin
of the Species to the boo Of Genesis,
but know you are an infidel. As for
myself, as Herbert Spencer was not
present at the creation and the Lord
Almighty wasapresent, / prefer TO TAX
the divine account as to-what really
occurred on that OCCASION To show
that his evolution is only an attempt
to eject God and to postpone him and
10 put Him clear out of reach, / ask
"a question or two. The, baboons made
the man, and the wolf made the ba-
boon, and the reptile made the quad
kruped, and the fish made the reptile,
and the tadpole made the fish, and the
primal germ made the tadpole. Who
made the primal GERM Most of the
evolutionists say, don't know"
Others say it made itself. Others say
1t was spontaneous generation There
lis not one OF them who will fairly and
openly and frankly and emphatically
say, God made it," ---g-
l The nearest to a direct answer is
that made by Herbert. Spencer in
which he says it was made by the
great "unknowable mystery" But
here comes Huxley with a cup of pro-
toplasm to explain the thing. This
/. protoplasm, he says, is primal life Civ
ing quality with which the race away
back in the ages was started. With
his ~protoplasm he proposes to explain
everything. Dear Mr.. Huxley, who
made the protoplaSm?
J. To show you hat evolution is inf
del Il place the Bible account Of how
: the brute creation was started OppO
site to the evOlutionist's account of the
way the brute creation was started.
Bible account: You know the Bible

at one time, and the, cattle made at an
d, other time, and the fish made at an
other time, and that each brought
forth after it's kind. Evolutionist's 'ac-

a statement fatty cOntradieting not
only the Bible, but the very 3 COT
Z science. A species never develops in
to anything but it's own species. In
raIlet ages and in. all the. world there
, has never been an exception to it. The
J. shark never comes of, a whale, nor the
pigeon of "a v~ulture, nor the butterfly
of a wasp, Species never cross over.
If there be an attempt at it, it is hy-
brid, and the hybrid is always sterile
and has no descendants. =. .
HOW WORLDS ARE MADE.
These men of science tell US that
10O, 900 species came. from four, when
the law all through the universe is
that, starting in one species is keeps
on in that species, and there would
be only four now if there had been four
at starting. If I should say to you
that the world is fiat, and that a cir
Gle and a square are the same, and
that twice 2 make Is, I would come
4, just as near the truth. as when these
evolutionists tell you that 100, 600 spe-
,cies came from four. Evolution would
, have been left out Of question, with
its theory fatty ~contradicting all OBJ
servation and all science, had not it's
authors and their disciples been to set
on ejecting God from the universe and
destroying the Bible that they will go
! to any length though 1T lead them
into idiotic absurditiy. You see what
the Bible teaches in regard to it. 1
have shown o also what evolution
teaches in regard to it.
] Agassiz says that he found in a, reef
Of Florida the remains Of insects 80
900 years old-not 5000, but 80, 900
years old-and that they were just
like the insects now. There has been
no change. All the facts of ornitholo-
gy and zoology and ichthyology and
cOnchology, out an echo of Genesis
first and twenty-first, Every winged
Tow after his kind Every creature
after it's kind. When common obser-
walton n science cOrrObOrate the BIZ
BILE, I will not stultify myself by sur
rendering to the elaborated guesses of
eVOlutiOniSts. ~
To show tina evolution is infidel I
i place also the Bible account of how
worlds were, made opposite the evolu-
tionist'S- account of how worlds were
made. Bible %account: God made two
great lights-the one to rule the day,
the other to rule the night. He made
the stars also. Evolutionists account.
Away back in the ages, there was a
= fire mist or star dust, and this fire
mist cooled off into granite, and then
this granite by earthquake and by
storm and by light was shaped into
mountains and valleys and seas, and
so wh2t was originally fire mist be-
3 came what we call the earth.
r.. Who made the fire mist?. Who set
the fire mist to world making. Who
cooled off the fire mist into granite?
4" You have pushed God some 60, 900, 600 or
- 10000, 600 miles from the EARTH, but He
+. is too neal yet for the health of evolu-
ton. For a great while the evolution
lists boosted that they had found the
very. stuff out of which this world. and
all worlds were made. They lifted
