Just Time.

JuSt in1os
 John Burroughs, in the April Atlantic
 Truly, 1t Is hard for us to realize what a part time has played in the esrths his tory-just time, duration-so slowly, oh so slowly, have the great changes been brought about. The turning of mud and silt into rock in the bottom of the old seas seems to have been merely a question of time. Mud does not become rock in mans time, nor vegetable matter become coal. These processes are too slow for us. The fexing and folding of the rocky strata, miles deep, under an even press ure, is only question of time Allow time enough and force enough and a layer of granite may be bent like bow. The crystals of the rock seem to adjust themselves to the strain, and to take up new positions, just as they do, much more rapidly, in a cake of Ice under pressure Probably no human agency could hex stratum of rock, because there Is not time enough, even if there were power enough. "A low temperature acting gradually" says my geology. during an indefinite age would produce results that could not be otherwise brought about even through greater heat" Give us time," say the great mechanical forces, and we will show you the immobile rocks and your rigid mountain chains as flexible as a piece of leather" Give us time," say the dews and the rains and the snow flakes, "and we will make you a garden out of those same stubborn rocks and frowning ledges." Give us time," says Life. starting with it's protozoans in the old Cambrian seas, and I will not stop till I have peopled the earth with my rad forms and crowned them all with man.
