At the close of the nineteenth century
came the rise of evolutionary science, but
we are not witnessing any marked improve
ment in the human race as compared with
four or ten thousand years ago. With our
scientific knowledge of to-day we ought to
see an improvement which is beyond what
we see among favored people, increased
stature, in vigor, in mental endowments,
because of their peculiarly favored circum-
stances. We do not know enough to per-
feet the human race, but we know enough
to begin.

Morality and art sometimes appear as the pro-

speaking of art [ mean only work worthy of the
name, and do not include the mere misuse of techn-
cal gifts for the qualification of base appetites.
Both art and morality have ideal, and the
aim in both cases is to apprehend and exhibit the
ideal in reality that does not conform to or express
it adequately. But the ideals are not the same, and
it is just where they most nearly coincide in dealing
with human life and character, that some conflict
is apt to arise.
Morality aims at graduating and abolishing
