of this in curious way. He shut
himself up in France for years to get
the atmosphere and the knowledge

trials arose over some question Of elect
oral jurisprudence. It was not of In

clear up the obscurity in which the
text books involve the point and incor-
porated his reply in the text of the

process. To the planets own internal
heat is due the chief fostering Of the
beginnings Of life upon Its surface.
Thus a planet is capable of at least
beginning to develop organisms with.

Act by act slipped by without any

proportionately relieved. As the last

from the box he found messenger at
