of queen bee is from an ordinary
worker egg, the larva insect being fed
by the workers upon a nitrogenous
food, known as royal jelly"
Some insects, such as aphides (plant
lice), reproduce their species both
by sexual fertilization and partheno-
genetically. Throughout the summer
there is constant viviparous (born
alive) production of parthenogenetic
without fertilization) females
These have as a rule, no wings. But
the reproduction of these insects is so
rapid that the plants upon which they
live would be destroyed if another of
the species did not arise. Occasionally,
therefore, females are produced, which
having wings, fly away to live upon
some other plant and to start a new
colony.
The progeny of these colonial aph-
ides in turn resemble their grand
parent, rather than their parent, in
the fact that wings are usually absent,
though the preservation of the species
is provided for by the occasional ap-
pearance of winged individual The
phenomenon which have just named
the likeness of the insect to it's
grandmother, and not to it's mother
is called metagenesis, or the altera-
tion of generations.
AS yet no male has appeared upon
the scene but colder weather, or
the scarcity of food, results in the
birth of males which fertilize the
females, and eggs are then laid. These
eggs do not usually hatch until spring.
In concluding this subject, it is de-
sirable to say that we know very little
concerning the causation Of SEX that
high feeding has decided tendency
to produce females, and that poor
feeding has marked tendency to
produce males, has been established
beyond doubt. But there are other
factors in the problem-factors of
which we are at present ignorant.
Any attempt to give fuller ex-
planation of the causation of sex
would be purely speculative, and
in my opinion, valueless, being un-
supported by any scientific evidence
Two Forces.
AS the earth is kept in all orbit,
which makes life DOSSihle nv the hal
ance of the antagonistic centripetal
and centrifugal forces, so is that life
evolved and maintained by the bal
ance of the two conflicting forces of
heredity and variation. Heredity,
that is, the principle which makes Off
spring resemble their parental organ
isms, may be considered as the centrip-
etal force which gives stability to

served. FernapS one OF the most
striking cases is that of Lambert the
"porcupine man," mentioned by Dar-
win in "The Variation of Animals
and Plants Under Domestication. "
This mans body was covered with
warty projections which were period
ically moulted Some of his children,
and also some of his grandchildren,
presented the same remarkable char
acteristic which, however, had not
been known to have been present in
any of his ancestors.
Long Distance Transmission.
In breeding animals, it is not un-
common to find the peculiar features
of generations of ancestors long since
extinct, cropping up occasionally in
individuals.
Horses, having stripes like those of
the ass along the back and down the
shoulders, occasionally appear, whose
immediate ancestors for many gener-
ations back showed nothing of the
sort and even stripes across the legs
like those of the zebra occur quite
unexpectedly, and testify to the COM
mon descent of the various species of
the horse tribe from striped ancestor.
How these ancestral peculiarities can
be transmitted through many genera
tions, each individual of which Or
iginated from single microscopic cell
which has been fertilized by another
cell, is one of the greatest mysteries
Of nature. In single microscopic
cell there may be myriads of atoms
circling around one another and form
ing infinitesimal solar systems, so to
speak, of infinite complexity and
variety. Darwin's Provisional The
ory of Pangenesis' supposes that
some Of the actual identical atoms
which formed part of ancestral bod
les are thus transmitted through
their descendants for generation
after generation, so that we are
literally "f1esh of the fiesh'' Of the
primaeval creature who developed in
to man in the later tertiary or early
glacial period. Darwin's hypothesis,
however, has not met with any gen.
eral acceptance. Haeckel has sug-
gested the hypothesis that, not the
identical atoms but their peculiar mo-
tions and mode of aggregation have
been thus transmitted and he has
named this mode of transmission the
"Peregenesis of Plastids - There
are any number of other guesses at
the truth, the theory Of physiological
units of Mr.. Spencer being the one
which involves the hereditary nature
of acquired characteristics, and the
continuity of the germ-plasm" be-
ing that of Weismann, who insists
that such characteristics are never
