IONS OF years Of life, and through those mill
IONS of years men will develop power and
knowledge, as they have developed in that
snort period OF 100000 years that stretches be-
hlnd us since the beginning of thought.
Man has done much in less than half mill.
ION years. He has been able to accomplish
wonders almost in his cradle frightened by
superstition, by doubt slaughtered by war.

beginning now, with the body of the people
possessing the power to read, power which to
race is like speech to an individual?
What will not the people accomplish in the
ages to come, the thousands of centuries in
which man will transform himself into really
civilized intellectual being, and transform this
planet into garden of happiness, a fit abode
for the developed man?
With this picture Of YOUR PRIMITIVE
ANCESTOR, with the big jaw and the small
forehead, the artist shows also the outline of
the tace of man of modern development
You can see clearly that the great change in
man during 400, 900 years has been INCREASE

needs that powerful jaw, which expresses
hatred, aggressveness and inarticulate brute
force
AS the forehead has come out the law has
gone back.
Man relied upon thought, cunning and
knowledge, rather than upon the power Of
those teeth and of that heavy underjaw. So
the jaw diminished and the brain grew.
When you look at the man of half a million
years ago and the man of to-day you see won.

straight up and down; then slantng from the
teeth back to bony ridge above the eyes
Remember that that change is still going on
in all of us-IN YOU WHO READ THIS
PAGE just as it has been going on through
centuries past.
The complete change in the face in the brain
and IN the body of man could not be brought
ABOUT In four thousand centuries. Another
lour Thousand centuries and more will pass be-
lore the change shall have been completed.
1hs change takes place, for better or for
worse, in every one of us--fortunately on the
whole for the better.
Every vicious thought, every ugly impulse,
In YOU OR YOUR NEIGHBOR, forces

and you feel the jaw shoot out.
Every noble thought, every good impulse
every kind OF emotion, every intellectual effort

race highly important, eIevating of the front

All that you can do for those that have suf

And you can develop yourself only by GOOD

mothers upon the children, is shown in this pic

OF this man Of oldcn days was found some
statements of facts will interest you.
The finding of the skull in geological de.
post that dates back farther than the glacial
period, proves that man existed on the earth in
days before the great movement of ice, before
the ice COVERED EUROPE.
There is little doubt that this man is near to
the Original ancestor upon which he would
have looked with horror as we look with hor.
ror upon him. For the one-quarter man who
came before this Mailman walked on all fours
and had but the faintest glimmer of thought if
any.
The discovery of this ancient ancestor of
ours will doubtless help to prove SCIENCE
ALWAYS DEMANDS PROOF that more
than one kind of man came up from the animal
and lived on the earth in those ancient DAYS.
In other words, that man began to develop at
different spots on the earth's surface. coming
up from animals slightly different which. as
Hacckel, the great German scientist long since
pointed out. would account for the great racial
dlnerences between the black the yellow and
the white races. The beginnings of man were
perhaps separate and distinct in Australia. in
Africa, in Europe and in Asia
