NOT NOBLE animal
Man Not Such Finished Product
as Imagined, Says Savant.
Human Body Has Points of Decided
lnferiority to Despised Mammals,
1t Is Asserted

Investigation is proving, declares
DR.. F. Wood Jones, professor of anat-
omy at the university of London, in his
new book, "Arboreal Man." that the hui
man body is no such finished product
of evolution as we have fondly imag-
ined. 1t has points of decided inferior
ity to the physical frames of mammals
upon which we look with diSdain as
less finely formed than ourselves.
Some of the lower animals are more
capable of exquisite adaptations than
are we ourselves. Their bodies are
more splendid instruments than ours
are, more complex, indicative of
higher stage Of evolution on the physi-
cal plane. The upright attitude of man
has been employed as an argument in
favor Of his superiority to the four
footed beast physiologieally, although
the evidence makes such an argument
ridiculous. 1t would tend the other
way, says review in the Lon
don Lancet.
If we compare mans body with the
body Of so-called "lower organisms"
we are astonished to find that his
points of resemblance are with the
lowest in the scale of conscious being.
Man is oddly unlike the noble beasts of
the jungle; but he is amazingly like
the creatures Of a primitive type that
infest the bog the pond and the
swamp. His relatives are not the lords
of the forest, not the kings of the
jungle, nor the mighty eagle, but the
creatures of the slime.
How is it that the various elements
of the remote ancestral limb have been
preserved in human limbs? Professor
Jones' answer is that the primates
broke away from the early land living
mammalian stock while the primitive
bones and muscles were still preserved
in that stock. These primitive ele-
ments proved useful and were pre-
served in that particular form which
adopted an arboreal life and used the
hand and foot to grasp with. The prim-
tive plan on which the hands of man
are built can be accounted for only by
long pilgrimage in the trees. 1t was
during mans arboreal phase of exist
ence that the vast majority of those
anatomical characters which we re-
| gard as adaptations to mans upright
posture were evolved. These anatOmi-
cal traits indicate how low we are

Do You Neglect
Your Machinery !

The machinery Of the body needs to
be we'll oiled, kept in good condition
just as the automobile, steam engine or
bicycle. Why should the human neglect
his own machinery more than that of
his horse or his engine? Yet most peo-
pie do neglect themselves. To clean
the system at least once a week is to
practice preventive measures. You will
escape many ills and clear up the coat
ed tongue, the sallow complexion, the
dull headache, the lazy liver, if you will
take n pleasant laxative made up of
the May-apple, juice of the leaves of
aloes, root of jalap, and called Pleasant
Pellets. You can obtain at almost any
drug store in this country these vege-
table pellets In vials for 25c-simply
ask for Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.
There can be no counterfeit If they
have the DIR. Pierce stamp. Proven

of Sin

Deadly Virus of Sin.

Walking down our streets are many
who by their halting steps and pallid
countenances verify the text. Fair
once was the body God gave them,
sweet and clean, but alas! The deadly
virus of sin has poured its foulness
through the blood and now they are
wrecks physically. Sin has found them
out in their bodies, which God intend
ed not for sin, but for temples Of the
Holy Spirit.
But sad as it is to see body wrecked
by sin, infinitely sadder is it to see a
ruined soul. For sin sends its deadly
virus deeper than the body, it sends
1t into ones moral being. There is the
place where sin finds one out. Con-
science and memory may fail to do
their work now, and perchance the
body may escape the defilement of sin,
but not so the soul. Sin there is mex
pungeable. 1t makes us what we are.
1t has wrought death within, and un-
less we avail ourselves of the grace
of God. we shall because Of it die eter-
nally.
But God has way of escape; 1t is
through his son Jesus Christ upon
whom he laid the iniquity of us all. He
is the only way, ''fOr there is none
other name under heaven given among
men, whereby we must be saved
(Acts 4:12.) How then shall we escape
being found out by our sin if we neg
lect so great a salvation which God by
his grace has provided2

Moses that their fighting men would
cross with the rest of the tribes and
help them drive the enemy out or the
land. Upon this condition Moses grant
ed their request and said, "If you fail to
keep your promise to help conquer the
land be sure your sin will find you
out"
These words spoken by Moses so
long ago are true in all generations.
They should be to all people like the
red danger signal that warns the trav-
eler God In his mercy flashes these
warning words before us, and by them
bids us beware of sin.
"WiII Find You Out"
Note these words do not say, your
sin will be found out, though that is
true. What they say is, your sin Will
find you out. That, you see, is quite
different thing. Something, I fear,
most people do not take into consid-
Grafton. They are fearful their sin
will be found out and so they try to
conceal it, But bury sin, never so
deep, there will come a time when 1t
will be uncovered, for "the Lord will
bring to light the hidden things Of
darkness and will make manifest the
counsels of the hearts" q Cor. 4:5)
Some seem to think they can lose
their sin down through the years; that
the lapse Of time will annihilate it; but
there is an ever-present tense to sin
and it always keeps pace with the
years. A mans hair may have turned
gray, his form become bent, and his
step tottering, but the sins Of his youth
have not been lost. They still dog his
steps, for as echo follows song, so sin
trails on! on on!
Neither can sin be left behind by
changing ones dwelling place. Many
O man has tried it but never yet has
anyone succeeded. Though he has put
thousands of miles and oceans wide be-
tween him and his sin, he has never
gotten away from it, for like Banquos'
ghost, it cannot be left behind. When
least he expects it, it gibbers at him;
then thinking to escape it, he turns an
other way when 10 1t greets him there.
Sow and Ye Must Reap.
1t is also q law of nature and so
law of God, that whatsoever a man
soweth that shall he also reap. He
may think he is cunning enough to es-
cape the consequences Of his sin, just
as the criminal thinks when he COM
mits his crime, "others may be caught,
but not l." o foolish man! deceive
not thyself AS thou dost SOW, so shalt
thou reap. A day of reckoning is ahead
and thou shalt not then escape the
Judgment of God for, "Some mems sins
are open beforehand, going before to
Judgment; and some men they follow
after" q Tim. 5 :24)
But even now our sins find us out.
Memory, that plastic piece of wax
upon which everything is recorded, and
from which nothing can be erased,
brings before us our sin, and con-
science, which the Greeks called the
whisper of God down the aisles Of a
mans soul, says, "Thou art the man."
Herod, told Of the mighty works of
Jesus, cried in alarm as memory and
conscience did their work, at is John
the Baptist risen from the dead,' and
he trembled with fear. Nothing pierces
one and leads to despair like an accuS-
ing conscience. Many a man with no
other accuser has cried out, my God!
/ am found out at last"
