BACK TO LAMARCK

than the successor is already tread
ing close upon it's heels. This has been
well shown in the case of the nebular
hypothesis, and now Darwinism in its
turn is sustaining, as best it may, the
assaults of keen-witted men of science.
who re-eXamine its facts only to dis
pute it's conclusions. Nor is it prema-
ture to say that while some form of it
will remain, the theory cannot survive.
How has the change been brought
about? 1t came as the result of two
decades of fruitful work in the field
of natural history, and especially
through resuscitation of the views of
a naturalist whom the world had al
most forgotten.
Twenty years ago, students of bot
any remembered that a Frenchman,
born at Bazentin in Picardy, had con-
tributed some questionable opinions
on the origin of species; to-day Jean
Lamarck is the great rival of Darwin,
with a reputation and fame at least
equal to those of his distinguished
successor.
AS most American naturalists side
with Lamarck, it is interesting to re-
call the fact that some precious exam
pies of the French naturalists writing
and sketches are now in the possess
sion of Harvard university. They were
presented to that institution by Prof
A. Agassiz, who obtained them at
Paris in 1906.
What did Lamarck teach regarding
the "origin of species?" The problem
was to account for the multiplicity of
forms which make up the realms of
plant and animal life. The influence of
surroundings, the close adaptation of
each species to its particular environ
ment had already been recognized.
Lamarck took a step in advance He
conceived the idea of explaining diff
ferences of species by referring them
to the different conditions under which
species have to exist.
A given environment compels the
animal living in it to be active in a
particular way, and this special appli-
cation of it's body and of its organs to
the environment causes them to be
specially adapted to the work they
have to do.
ut is not" says Lamarck, "the form
either of the body or of it's parts
which has given rise to the habits
and to the mode of life of animals;
but, on the contrary, it is the habits.
the mode of life, and all the other
influential circumstances which have
with time produced the form of the
bodies and organs of animals"
Here is the principle of natural Sc
lection. But the selection in the one
case is for the purpose of man; in the
other it is for the conditions of life.
In artificial breeding the selector is an
intelligent being; in the Darwinian
theory the selector is an unintelligen.

DAY OF TREATMENT OF DISEASE
BY SERUM is COMING.
So Declares Prof. Wright, Distin-
euished English Advocate of Germ
Theory-Even White Plague
Will Be Conquered.

That our children will live to see the
drug store as it is known to-day disap-
pear and it's place taken by dispensers
of animal serums which will be inject
cd into the veins of the patient, is the
opinion of a distinguished advocate of
the germ theory, Prof. Wright of Eng
land.
In explanation of his theory, Prof.
Wright further says: THE present
system of medication will be relegated
% the limbo which has swallowed up
the cupper and leecher. We have con-
quered diphtheria with the anti-diph-
theritic serum. With other serums we
Will conquer the great white plague
consumption. We will conquer the dis
ease that keeps pace with it-pneu-
monia. We will conquer typhoid and
cholera and yellow fever without ad
ministering drugs through the stom-
ach. The hypodermic syringe will
take the place of the teaspoon. The
laboratory of the future will not be a
building for the blending of chemical
agents. 1t will be a vast biologic sta
BILE, housing hundreds of horses, with
thousands of pens for guinea pigs and
thousands of hutches for rabbits as
an adjunct. These animate creatures
will take the place of our retorts, our
kettles, our drying pans and the other
paraphernalia of our present day
medicinal workshop"
Advanced practitioners in medicine
agree that the prophecy is not chin
erical. DR.. Rogers, of Cornell, looks
forward to a change in treatment as
diametrically opposite to existing
methods as present methods are oppo-
site to the empiricism of the middle
ages. The movement is already we'll
under way in Europe, and in America
the middle west has taken the furth-
est step forward in the establishment
of the new way and the abandonment
of the old. The city of Detroit now
leads the world in the production of
these several serums that are to bat
tie with disease through the crcula-
ton, and within the last three months
the announcement has been made of
the discovery of a serum that will de-
stroy the germ of pneumonia task
patiently pursued for years without
success by Pasteur and Koch. 1t has
passed the experimental stage, but the
claim is not yet made that it ranks

sprinkled either in the front, or at
the back, or both. Such careful atten-
lion gives building of this character
an air of thrift and tone of superior
ity which commands respect enough to
secure good rents.
One fiat in such buildings often
rents for enough to pay the interest
and taxes on the whole investment, so
that the owner can figure his own rent
only costs him the janitor service, re-
pairs, etc. A two-flat brick building
the size of this one, which is 27 feet
in width and 40 feet in length, is gen.
orally valued in the residence sections
of Chicago at from $4,000 to $4,000,
according to the size of the lot, loca-
ton, style of finish and general con-
dition.

being waged by those who hold to
the Darwinian theory on the one hand
and those who hold to the Lamarck
theory on the other, with perhaps the
odds in favor of the latter. When
Charles Darwin nearly half century
ago published his epoch-making book
on Natural Selection" his theory was
violently opposed.
Yet, many scientific men rallied to
it's support, and after two or three
decades of discussion, public opinion
settled down into resigned acceptance
of the new views. Though a few
cautious experts. like Huxley, with
held their complete assent, the con-
troversy over the Darwinian theory
seemed at an end. In all problems of
natural history, ''Darwinism" became
the word to conjure with. Natural
selection" had completely superseded
the necessity for anything like de-
sign in nature" 1t looked as if the
origin of species" by "the survival of
the fittest" had triumphed all along
the line. Some went so far in their
enthusiasm as to regard the famous
English naturalist as the founder of
the doctrine of evolution.
But this attitude has undergone q
startling change. No sooner, it has
been said, does theory obtain com

mentation has proved them to be
better medium for "standardizing" or
testing the strength of the anti-toxins
to be used on human beings, than the
rat or rabbit In the early days of ex-
perimentation in serum therapy many
kindly disposed women made vehe
ment protest against what they said
was refined cruelty in compelling the
helpless little creatures to become vic
tins of tuberculosis or diphtheria
The objection for time was almost
as vehement as it was against vivisec
tion, but it finally was overcome, and
now thousands of these animals,
worthless for food or any other known
purpose, die every year that thousands
of children may live.

if man owns building like this on
corner lot he may consider himself
in luck.
The lower fiat is always smaller
than the upper one, because the front
stairway generally spoils one room,
but in this plan reception hall is Sc
cured which may be used as an ad-
iunct to the parlor on the first floor.
1t is always important to have one
bathroom over the other, so the
plumbing pipes may be as short as
possible and grouped so as to include
both bathrooms and both kitchens.
Flat buildings have undergone con-
siderable evolution during late years.
The new ones are a noticeable i'm
provement over older buildings, from
the fact that most of the more preten-
tious new fiat buildings have good
porches both in front and at the back,
they have large windows, ventilating
shafts, light Railways and wide easy
stairs, they have heavy hardwood out
side doors, generally with a largo
panel of plate glass in front
The porches are heavy, with cement
floors, especially in front, and I notice
that more attention is being paid to
back porches every year. Families
living in flats like to get outside at
every opportunity, usually one porch or
the other is sheltered from the sun
or the wind so that it is possible
to get outside in one direction or the

put on the lawn, in washing the front
and back steps, front hallway, cleaning
the plate glass and thousand little
things that cannot well be enumerated
but which go to make up the proper
appearance of a well-kept building.
All deliveries of groceries and par
cells of all kinds are required to be
made at the rear entrance There is
a heavy galvanized iron garbage can
on the back porch at the outside of
each kitchen door; this is emptied by
the janitor every morning. In the
summer time usually the porches are
washed down with hose either
morning or evening and the grass Is

used much except at meal time, so the
dining room may be counted as part
of the hall and save that much space.
1t is considered a great advantage
to have windows on both sides of such
building. Too many resident
fat buildings are placed right
up against each other so the
windows at the sides get no
