most imposing discovery, but which up to
the present time has perhaps yielded least,
Is that which is concerned with the de-
termination or differentiation Of sex, and
the somewhat more approachable problem
Of the making of species by cross-fertili-
cation. To what extent the latter is pos
sible or impossible Is still an unknown
condition in biology, more particularly
where the higher 70 ms of life are con-
cerned, but some definite knowledge on
this interesting and most important
branch of evolutionary inquiry may be ex-
pected before long as the result of practi-
cal experiments that are being conducted
by a committee of scientists special
~ appointed for this research by the
Royal Society Of London. In these ex-
periments man and the higher apes
figures as subjects of experimentation;
and whatever may be the outcome, the
experiments will be part of, perhaps, the
most important chapter Of research in
the domain Of Darwinism or evolution.
Somewhat In the same direction are the
experiments conducted by Prof. Ewart at
the Midlothian village OF Penicuyk about
ten miles southwest of Edinburg, toward
determining the power OF the sire In In
fluencing all the later progeny develop
ed from q mare that has once mated with

with the zebra and the horse, and al
though they have thus far not led to any
positive conclusion, conhrmatory or nom
clonnrmatory Of the popular belief in the
"infection of the germ"-or what has
with more scientific precision been des-
ignated telegony-it is more than likely
that in the end they viii throw impor-
tant light upon the general subject Of
heredity, and perhaps solve the problem
which has so largely engaged the atten-
ton OF naturaiists since the dayssof OAR

acters.
To this day the question of sex remains
an inscrutable one, and 1t is doubtful If
we are nearer the solution Of the mystery
why one ovum cell, indlsunguishable In
minutest detail from another. should In
one instance develop intosa female. The
lobars Of Geddss. Ryder and Schenck may
ultimately be found 90 be directed toward
a solution. but the solution has not yet
been given. 1t Is. however, a possibility

Philadelphia, Jan. 1s.--The late Sir Bal
four Stewart when presiding over the
British Association for the Advancement
of Science few years ago, remarked that
we were on the eve OF one OF the grandest
discoveries that had ever been made, but
that he had not the faintest idea what it
might be. The distinguished physicist,
recognizing the possibilities of science as
coverles as the telephone. the phonograph
and wireless electric transmission. felt
the new thing ito be in the air." but,
like Prof. Huxley, he believed that a sci
enlist need not be a detective, and fail
ing in this office, he could not detect the
atmospheric germ of the new discovery.
The determination and application OF the
Roen gen rays, the manufacture and up
plication of liquid air, are happenings OF
the later days and II they are not to be
classed with the very greatest of dscov-
cries, they are yet sufficiently striking
and important to have justified Prof.
Stewards prophecy.
For the Twentieth Century Explorer
The close of the century finds the sci
enlist again eager for the startlngly new;
but as it was few years ago. he can
hazard little as regards a definite out
orr OF The present researches. Nor is
he in a position to state from which
branch of science the most is to be ex-
pected. One department of knowledge at
least clearly shows its deficiencies, and in

When We Went to See the Show,

When | think the old days over,
Try to recollect each charm
That was trewn along life's pathway
When a boy upon the farm.
'Mongst the treasured recollections
OF that happy long ago,
How distinctly remember
When we went to see the show.
When we read the advertisements
OF John Robinson and Rice,
Then our purses were consulted,
And we figured on the price.
How we looked and longed and waitet
for that blissful day to dawn,
Starting in the early morning,
With our Sunday fixins on.
All was glad anticipation
When ut last we reached the town,
Every cup seemed running over,
Not a shadow or frown.
There was such flood of sunshine,
Such glorifying CLEAN,
When we stood by Mary Ellen
And gave orders for ice cream.
How we boys kept step together,
AS we marched along the street,
Often dodging a collision
With the crowd we chanced to meet
How our pulses went to thrilling
When the band struck IN an air.
And we longed to join the circus,
| Follow after anywhere.
When the circus doors were opened,
| Life's measure was complete,
AS we walked with Mary Ellen
To select proper seat
Then we ate fresh roasted peanuts,
Changing oft for lemonade,
Joining in with the applauses
When Captain jerks" was played.
With unbounded admiration
We watched each acrobat
Laughing until near exhausted,
When the clown pulled off his hat.
Then the concert followed after,
And the sun was going down,
When our holiday was over,
! And we bade adieu to town.
We are growing gray and wrinkled,
And have turned another page.
We use cane. wear spectacles.
And seldom tell our age.
Yet our thoughts oft keep returning
To that happy long ago.
For we never can forget the day,
We went to see the show.
