ask him. How did man get here if not by
evolution?"
If species simply spring into existence,
why has not he or any man in history ever
seen any so come? We do see evolution
doing its work today,-separating ndivid-
uals into varieties, widening varieties apart
in the direction of making them different
species. Burbank, of the Pacific Coast
has made his name immortal bringing new
vegetables flowers and fruits into existence.
Evolution is doing its work as long as vari-
alton continues Variation is great in
the human race that any individual can be
distinguished from any other man en- the
whole earth. / will ask him: Did the
Negro and the white man spring from
common ancestor? Did the South African
Bushman, with his ape-like features, his
short stature who dies of old age at 80 or
40? Did the Japanese and Chinese? Did
the Englishman and the Dutchman come
originally from the same forefathers? Did
the ape and any of these at one time have
the same father? The fact that none but

thick human skulls, with shallow and low

that man has since been wonderfully i'm

species from the Japanese. These two
races are not much more akin than the
horse and the donkey. They will cross, tbs
true, but their offspring die off in few
generations, leaving each race distinct.
Some of the fossil remains of primitive
man have been procured wherein he shows
himself to be midway between the human
and the ape. See Haeckels Riddle of the
Universe" p. 81.
One has recently been discovered in
Southwestern France and it is now in the
Museum of Natural History at Paris. M.
Perrere read TO the Academy of Science
paper on the subject by Prof Marcelin
Boule instructor in paleOntology at the mu-
scum from which it would appear that the
skull Is of a form intermediary between
that of the monkey and the man. Its skull
and chin were nearer that of man than that
Of any monkey now living, yet nearer that
of the monkey than of any man now living.
The evidence | gave in my last proves
that the horse did evolute and since he did
so. also did every animal on the globe in
Guiding man. Prof Osborn, of the Amer
lean Museum, writes me: 1--WE are con-
stantly discovering additional remains of the
ancestors of the horse, and the evidence
that the horse is descended from small five

We do not contend that there is sufficient
intelligence in the atom or nomad. of itself,
