The Corn Law
By REV. THOMAS B. GREGORY.

CKTY-FOUR years ago the
= plain people of Great Britain
scored one Of the greatest
economic triumphs Of the ages
the passage through Parliament
of the act known as the Corn
Law"
The campaign leading up 10
this famous victory" was one Of
the most wonderful in the history
of the platform. Such meetings
were never seen before and have
never been seen since, meetings Of
fifty, seventy a hundred
thousand people, worked up to the
highest pitch Of interest, an in
terest that came home to mems
business and bosoms in a most
direct, practical and pathetic
fashion. Such subscriptions!-as
much as $4,000 pounds being
raised at a single meeting. The
great fund of lS4S, aggregating
$4,000 pounds (S1,250O00), was
raised like lightning.
Many of the chairmen and
speakers We're what they call
common laborers," but they pos
sessed uncommon ideas and I'M
common ability in expressing
those ideas, and they shook old
England up as she had never been

and noble propaganda blessed
with a more perfect victory. The
interests" fought the league
tooth and nail. with fair means
and foul and the league fought
back.
At last the great day came
June rs. 1S4s-when the Lords
read the bill for the third tina
and passed it-passed II because
Of the irresistible pressure THAI
was brought to bear upon them
by the plain people. BY the pro-
visions of the bill all grain was
admitted into the country practi-
cally free, and the poor mans
bread was no longer in jeopardy.
The mighty spirit of the league
was, of course, Richard Golden
the international man." without
whose genius, fire and persever-
ance the Corn Law bill would
never have won out. For seven
years, from the foundation Of the
league to the accomplishment OF
its purpose, he worked incessant-
ly, now guiding the councils, now
addressing the meetings, and
everywhere storming mems hearts
by his profound earnestness, and
winning their reason by his cool
unanswerable logic

ped, taking the attitude of its
enormously remote animal ances-
tors, who could not walk erect
because their hip joints Gas is still
the case with monkeys) were so
placed that the center of gravity
Of the whole body was ahead of
them. The baby still retains this
pithecoid C'apelike" or monkey
like'D characteristic after it has
otherwise become a miniature
man or woman.
But, very rapidly, a change
manifests itself, AS the baby
grows the curvature of its spine
alters in such a way as TO bring
the center of gravity of the body
not only over the line of the hip
joints, but even a little back Of It.
Tendency to Fall.
This causes, as you will notice.
a tendency Of the child, when it
first begins to hold itself erect, TO
totter and fall backward. Since a
monkey never undergoes the
change in the form Of the sp,ne
which transforms a quadruped
into a biped, it can not fall back
ward even when, with the aid OF
its forefeet, or hands, it gets it
self into a partially erect attit-
tude Its center of gravity re-
naming in front of the hip line,
it always comes down face for
ward.
In the case of the baby nature
provides for the backward falling
tendency by the development OF
bands of powerful muscles on the
front of the hip joints, which en-
able the human being to hold
himself in balance when he is
standing upright, and which no
other animal possesses. Nothing
is more interesting than to watch
a child gradually acquiring con-
troll Of these muscles. When that
control is acquired, 1t runs, leaps,
jumps and rejoices in the possess
sion of the most universally effec-
tive bodily machine that evolution
has yet developed on our globe.
Then, at last, the last monkey
characteristic has disappeared.
Some Resent the Idea.
Some people seem to resent the
idea that the human form takes
its rise by regular variations and
graduations out of mere animal
shapes, and, for sentimental rsa-
sons, persist in rejecting It. But,
rightly considered, this process Of
evolution is the strongest posi-
BILE argument for the existence Of
some kind of divinity in man.
because 1t shows that, without
violating the laws of nature, he
has been enabled to reach a po-
sition which seems to place him,
in some respects, above naturel

Baby's Lessons in
Evolution the Be-
ginning of Prog
ress in the Great
Step of Life.
Child Begins as Quad
ruped and Its Acquire
ment of Erect Attitud
Reveals Its Passag
from the Animal Stage
By GARRETT P. sERVIss.

YOUR baby is a quadruped!
Have your noticed that? 1t
is no more able to stand
erect without the aid of its hands
than a monkey is. 1t goes on all
tours.
Upon that simple fact you may
build up the whole law of evolu-
ton, which some persons find 30
difficult to comprehend.
If you doubt that the earliest
human forms resembled those Of
the apes and monkeys, who had
the same common ancestor with
us, you can get rid of that doubt
by studying the attitudes Of your
baby, and the changes that take
place in its bones and muscles
as it gradually acquires the abil-
ity to stand and to walk freely
about upon its feet.
One of the strangest things
and one of the most Illuminating
that science has discovered is the
fact that animals of all kinds, in
Guiding man, exhibit during their
individual development, beginning
from the earliest germ Of physical
life, the principal stage of evolu-
ton that their race has passed
through in it's slow rise through
the various orders Of being.
Ancestral Peculiarities.
Many Of the ancestral pecu-
liarities that were possessed by
their remote predecessors show at
the start Of their existence, but
disappear, one by one, as they
approach the adult, or full-grown
form, that characterizes them at
present.
If you will look into the works
of Huxley, Haeckel, Metchnikoff
and others who have studied and
illustrated the development of the
form of man, you will be aston
ished by the absolute likeness be-
tween the embryo (from Greek
words meaning 'In the bud") of a
human being and that of a lower
animal, and you will be yet more
astonished to see how this like
ness vanishes, by successive steps,
as the human form energies and
the animal characteristics drop
away.
To fully understand the argu-
ments based upon these scientific
Investigations you must have con-
siderable knowledge OF anatomy
and physiology. But, II you will
study, without any special scien-
tific knowledge, the daily devel-
opment of your baby, you will
comprehend evolution practically
just as we'll as If you had gone
through a course Of study in BIZ
ology. And, perhaps, your convic-
ton of its truth viii be all the
stronger.
The baby begins as q quadru-
