HISTORY IN HUMAN BODIES

For at least 5O,UOO.OOO years the
world forces have been making the
animal body, yet today, In the finished

investigators have found no fewer
than lO7 organs or parts Of organs
which are more or less useless, says

They were once similar organs. but
now only an individual here and there
can use one of the seven muscles un-

that the ear could once be moved III

There are many similar muscles in
the body today which tell US about

their nostrils. Some men can move
their scalps. They do SO by means
OF muscles which in most of US have
gone completely out Of use.
