where nothing but ice is now found.
Water lilies grew within degrees of
the pole. In Europe meantime there
nourished the lion, elephant. hippopot-
anus, rhlnoreros and other animals
which at present seem peculiar in the
tropics. One of their contemporaries
In France WAS o large fruit-eating
tree-ciimbinS ape. called dryopithecus.
Lartet and Gervais regarded this crea-
ture as more nearly allied to man than
are either the gorilla or chimpanzee.
In the miocene period the climate of
Europe was fully 20 degrees warmer
than 1t is now, and in theeocene II
would probably have been still more
so, the globe having less opportunity
Tor radiating off into space the store
of original heat that Is commonly i'm
puted to II.
Where, then. under these clrcum-
stances would mans evolution be most
likely to occur? HacVkel puts the era
die OF the race in Southern Asia and
he has recently gone to Java. where
Dubois found his missing link. uithe-
canthropus rectus. in the hope of OBJ
tanning further evidence in support of
that view. Wallace looks further
North for the origin of man. while
Darwin thought it possible that he
made his first appearance in Africa.
CONCLUSIONS REACHED.
In view of the residence of Lartetis
anthropoid In France in the miocene
period and of the discovery of a great
number of prehistoric stone imple-
ments in England. France. Belgium
and Germany Mr. Waddington was at
first disposed to pronounce northwest
ern Europe the much-sought cradle of
the race, but here is n difficulty that
bothered him: Stone implements and
chips have been found in America
winch appear TO antedate the glacial
period, and the question arises. How
did their makers ever get to this CONT
nent? Behring Strait offers a better
route, apparently. than Iceland and
Greenland Accordingly the Nineteenth
Century contributor feels OBLIGED to
shift the early home of man consider
ably eastward of the site first selected.
Thus by degrees he is forced to the
conclusion that the cradle of the race
lay in Northern Asia, between the Ui.al
mountains on the one hand and Behr-
ing Strait and Ollotsk Sea on the
other. Siberia is now the coolest coun-
try in the world. but the discovery of
immense quantities of fossil ivory
there show that once its climate was
almost tropical.-New York Tribune.
