AND HAPPINESS.

Colorado Springs. Colo.-George T.
Wells. well known resident OF this
city. who IL held In much esteem by
his acQuaintances because OF his moral
integrity. mental attainment and
strong religious belief. Is advertising
for coal black wife. Wells wish for
n negro wife Is inspired by the lofticst
of motives, both religious and physical.
He Ia sincere In the belief that the
physical condition OF the human race
has vastly deteriorated since the days
OF Christ through lack of intermar-
riage between races. and that unless

versally accepted and practiced the
end OF man and woman Is practically
In sight.

and not white man, and gives his au.
thority for making his assertion.

Tho Training Of the Human Plant
Hc arrives at the same conclusion that
I do.
Tho human race has. ne whole.
declined In strength and vi.or. and has
dcgcncrated more and more the last
few centuries. The reason for this Ii
that tho members OF each race have
been marrying among themselves. arni
since no fresh blood has been brought
Into each race thcy have lost their
primal viKor. Every ono knows that
tho reason why the Americans arc
such hardy people Ii the great amount
OF immigration We have. Does not that

Points 70 Adam.
Tho people Ia the carly history Of
tho w~rid lived TO be hundreds Of
years old. Adam. Noah and Mc'husc.
lah all lived TO be over 500 years Of
ago. Now one who lives to be- 100
years old II curiosity. Why!
IN those days there were no geo
graphical barriers or race prcjudiccs

marrying. That II why they were such
powerful people. The same thing can
still be done. Tho facilities for Il are
better In the United States than any
where on earth. as there are so many
different races. In those parts Of the
country where there II tho greatest
amalEnmation VIC see the greatest
progress. Luther Burbank. the noted
seicntist. says that the amaisamaiion
OF tho races In the United States will
produce the finest people the world has
ever known.
"Thc III feeling between the white
and colorcd people II simply a matter
OF prejudice. and has no physiological
or psychological basis. What differ.
cncc IL there between the white and
coiorcd races9 The frst human pair
wore perfect specimens OF their kind.
The organs and elements composing
their makeup were in such wcll.bal.
anccd condition that they were able 10
survive 900 years Of life.
.Adam" Means "Rsd."
From the meaning OF the word
ADAM which In Hebrew means rcd
earth We can SEQ that Adam was red
man. Color In the human race is sim.
ply a matter Of color pigments. Adam
had Just the proper amount of color
pigments.
Now. let us see how the color came
to change. II Adam and Eve had re.
manned in the Garden Of Eden. where
the environments were perfectly
adapted TO their growth and develop
ment, each succeeding generation
would have been as perfect as they
were. But Adam sinncd and was cast
out Of Eden. The succeeding genera.
tons grew up where the environments
were not perfect, and consequently the
children had some abnormal features
which made them different from their
ancestors. Environment always mod.
fics the organs in such q way as TO
weaken the whole system. when this
IA done. the law Of heredity carries on
the unbalanced condition and the race
grows weaker and weaker. and unless
wise crossing is rcsorted TO to correct
this by introducing new blood. the race
becomes degenerate. This can be done
by having the normal perfect descend.
ants intermarry. and thus producing
normal children. or by having the DIFF.
ferently abnormal ones marry. which
will also result In normal children. Tho
union Of the white and black is the lat.
ter method Of solving the problem.
Why They Fiourished.
by using these methods the human
race for the first 1,600 years OF the
worlds history kept its primal vigor.
Then different branches OF the race
sprang up and they separated. The
Tower Of Babel was built and God con.
