1043Are we evolving to- day?
1043But how can we see any trace of an Annelid ancestor in the vastly different frames of these animals which are said to descend from it?
1043But what higher types of life issued from the womb of nature after so long and painful a travail?
1043Can we suggest any reasons why brain should be especially developed in the apes, and more particularly still in the ancestors of man?
1043Do they point downward to lower forms, and upward to higher forms, as the theory of evolution requires?
1043Do we find a similar destruction of life, and selection of higher types, after the Pleistocene perturbation?
1043Do we find them at work in the Pleistocene?
1043Have we not said that nothing remains of the procession of organisms during half the earth''s story but a shapeless seam of carbon or limestone?
1043How did these civilisations develop in Asia, and how is it that they have remained stagnant for ages, while Europe advanced?
1043How much advance should we allow for these seven or fourteen million years of swarming life and changing environments?
1043How, then, do we account for the wings of the insect?
1043If humanity shared at first a common patrimony, why have the savages remained savages, and the barbarians barbaric?
1043If man is a progressive animal, why has the progress been confined to some of the race?
1043In particular, had it any appreciable effect upon the human species?
1043Is man the last word of evolution?
1043Must every step of future progress be won by fresh and sustained struggle?
1043Or ought we to regard this change of structure as brought about by a few abrupt and considerable variations on the part of the young?

1043Why has progress been incarnated so exceptionally in the white section of the race, the Europeans?
1043Why should Europe and North America in particular suffer so markedly from a general thinning of the atmosphere?
33925After all these changes do you not want to know what happened next?
33925And how was it made?
33925Are shells in the sea being covered up with clay,--with mud,--and more shellfish living on the top of that; and then, are they, too, being covered up?
33925As before, what is happening to- day?
33925But how have these great masses of flints been swept along?
33925But where did the silica come from?
33925Can the land have been down under the sea; and have sea waves washed the stones along?
33925Does sand on a sea shore ever become hard like rock, so that shells buried in it are found afterwards in hard rock?
33925For what does it tell us?
33925How are they there?
33925How did they get there?
33925How do these beds rise up again, so that we find them with their sea shells in the quarry?
33925How do we know this?
33925How do we know this?
33925How?
33925If it goes on long enough--?
33925Is limestone being made anywhere to- day, and are shells being shut up in it?
33925Now what is the chalk?
33925Now, do we anywhere to- day find these tiny shells in such masses as to build up rocks?
33925Now, have we any deposits formed at that time in the Isle of Wight?
33925So that in years to come they will be found in layers of clay and stone like those we have been looking at in quarry and sea cliff?
33925The Upper Crioceras Group( 46 ft.), like the Lower, contains bands of Crioceras?
33925Then where were they formed?
33925Were there no birds?
33925What about the clays and the limestone?
33925What becomes of all the mud the streams and rivers are carrying down into the sea?
33925What immense rush of water can have spread these flints 30 feet deep along a river valley?
33925What is the meaning of this extension of the alluvium away from the course of the river out to the sea at Sandown?
33925What kind of animals?
33925What kind of trees grew in the country the river came from?
33925What was the country like south of this?
33925Where did the mud come from?
33925[ Illustration:_ Photo by J. Milman Brown, Shanklin._] CULVER CLIFFS-- HIGHLY INCLINED CHALK STRATA Now, what are flints, and how were they formed?
42584A fish or a lizard?
42584Again, did certain long- legged Dinosaurs eventually give rise by evolution to the running birds, ostriches, emeus, etc.?
42584And do we not now know that there are hundreds of them found fossil up and down the world?
42584Another question naturally suggests itself: Were they viviparous, or did they lay eggs like crocodiles?
42584But the reader inquires,"What is the nature of these creatures thus left stranded a thousand miles from either ocean?
42584He concludes with the question,''To which of the recognised classes of created beings can this huge rover of the ocean be referred?''
42584He says,"Did not learned men too hold, till within the last twenty- five years, that a flying dragon was an impossible monster?
42584How came they in the limestone of Kansas, and were they denizens of land?"
42584How did they get drowned?
42584How, then, could it reach or pick up anything lying on the ground?
42584No reptiles of the present day are capable of masticating their food; how, then, could he venture to assign it to a reptile?
42584Shall we call this earth- drama a tragedy or a comedy?
42584The question therefore arises-- Was this tortoise a creature of the imagination, or was the idea of it drawn from a living reality?
42584Then why not sea- serpents?
42584This elaborate apparatus must have been of some special use; the question is-- What service or services did it perform?
42584Was there ever an age of dragons?
42584We can, however, well imagine some of our readers asking,"Can these dry bones live?"
42584Were they nocturnal in their habits, wandering about by night, and taking their rest by day?
42584Were they related to ancient crocodiles?
42584What better lesson could the master have given the pupil to help him to remember his"Law of Correlation"?
42584What, then, was the consequence?
42584Who shall ever see them lit up with the same unmitigated enthusiasm again?
42584Would it not be an advantage for them to have the power of seeing their finny prey whether near or far?
42584those represented by crocodiles, lizards, snakes, and turtles?"

39674And what became of the pig?
39674Have you seen any Cheyennes hereabouts, gentlemen? 39674 How dare you deface one of nature''s castles with a patent name?"
39674Out from Hays, sirs?
39674--Indian and short for"How are you?"
39674Again Buffalo Bill lifted his voice in the solitude, and again came an answer, this time in a form of query,"Is it developed, my boy?
39674And why?
39674But the reader inquires, What is the nature of these creatures thus left stranded a thousand miles from either ocean?
39674But where was the doctor?
39674Did you tell me by the old tune?
39674Does it look like one?
39674Does the sight appall and bring him to his senses?
39674Echo answered,"Where?"
39674How came they in the limestones of Kansas, and were they denizens of land or sea?
39674In the presence of such heroism, what right had we, though bruised and tired, to complain?
39674Is it impossible that vessels plowed this ancient ocean with a speed which would have left our Cunarders out of sight?
39674Is the theory true that germs fall down to us from other planets?
39674Lot''s wife, you remember, looked back,( What woman could ever refrain?)
39674Mr. Colon, who had given a startled turn of the head over his right shoulder, exclaimed,"Bless me, what''s that?"
39674No struggle was visible where he fell, and it is probable that they approached him with a treacherous"How, how?"
39674On the plains the first question asked is,"Are they friends or foes?"
39674Or that we gazed anxiously at the huge chief as he sat, silent and motionless, awaiting the approach of our guide?
39674Or, do not the plains offer a strong argument on behalf of spontaneous generation?
39674SHOULD THERE NOT BE COMPULSORY EMIGRATION?
39674The cunning savage, seeing his foe prepared, approaches with signs of friendship, and cries of"How, how?"
39674Was it impossible, we mused, that ancient mariners, with whole cargoes of bells, went down on this inland sea centuries before Rome howled?
39674Was there ever another so big a bison?
39674We heard the chief''s loud"How, how?"
39674What if the bottom grass was full of creeping savages?
39674What say you?"
39674What would be thought of a hunter, in any of the Western States, who shot quails and chickens and left them where they fell?
39674Why not desert the city and lose yourself for awhile in this great grand waste?
39674Why should not the great public share in it also?
39674Would he have fired?
39674You did, eh?

42741But what becomes of the coal which is burnt in yielding the interest?
42741But what is chalk?
42741But what is the evidence of the deposits formed at this period?
42741But what was taking place meanwhile in the oceanic areas separating our plateaus?
42741Can we attribute the perfection of the watch to"accidental material operations"any more then the first effort to produce such an instrument?
42741Can we infer anything further as to the laws of creation from these Silurian multitudes of living things?
42741Do not all living things rise from a simpler to a more complex state?
42741Do they cease to be so when the man ceases to be conscious of them?
42741Do we know anything of law in the case of life?
42741Does this indicate direct genetic connection, or only like conditions in the external world correlated with likeness in the organic world?
42741For how can any one paint chaos, or give form and filling to the formless void?
42741Has the earth no earlier history?
42741How these several views accord with what we actually know as the result of scientific investigation?
42741Is it likely to have germinated in the brain of an ape?
42741Is it not certain, en the contrary, that the Fuegian is merely a degraded variety of the aboriginal American race?
42741Is it true, however, that the modern knowledge of nature tends to rob it of a spiritual First Cause?
42741Of what use were the Devonian forests?
42741Still future(?)
42741This digression prepares the way for the question: Was the Miocene period on the whole a better age of the world then that in which we live?
42741This"--wish that of the living whole No life may fail beyond the grave, Derives it not from what we have The likest God within the soul?"
42741To what does this point?
42741To what is this related, with reference to conditions of existence?
42741Was the length of the Mesozoic time equal to that of the Palæozoic?
42741We have to ask, What is gravitation itself, unless a mode of action of Almighty power?
42741Were there no herbs or trees to drink in the rains and flourish in the sunshine?
42741Were there no land animals to prowl along the low tidal flats in search of food?
42741Were they enormous birds?
42741Were they the first- born of land snails?
42741What can be more widely contrasted then a newly- born child and the small gelatinous spherule constituting the human ovum?

42741What if there were still earlier plants, whose remains are still to be discovered?
42741What inhabitants have these forests?
42741What is implied in the idea of creation?
42741What is implied in the idea of evolution as applied to man?
42741What is the actual fact with regard to these animals, so confidently affirmed to resemble some not very remote ancestors of ours?
42741What mere animal ever had or could attain to such an experience?
42741What then are these oldest rocks deposited by the sea-- the first- born of the reign of the waters?
42741What were these portentous creatures-- bird, beast, or reptile?
42741What, then, is the actual statement of the theory of creation as it may be held by a modern man of science?
42741Who that saw them trodden under foot lay the reptile aristocracy of the Mesozoic could have divined their destiny?
42741Why, then, are so many men of science disposed to ignore altogether this view of the matter?
42741Would it not be absolutely impossible that man should have originated in such a country?
42741Yet why should these tyrants of creation so utterly disappear without waiting for us to make war on them?
42741and if so, of what possible use would it be in the struggle of a merely physical existence?

42043[ 51] But what would be the result if we only extend this idea to its logical conclusion? 42043 = These things must be first explained.= Has anything happened to our world that will explain them? 42043 = We call it creation.= Can any one find a better name? 42043 According to Dana, all these must have met with aspeedy burial after death"--perhaps before, who knows?
42043Accordingly I ask,= How much time is needed= to account for the facts before us on the basis of Uniformity?
42043And= if one example, why not a million=?
42043As has been said, How could the origin of nature be contrary to nature?
42043But I ask: What kind of organic remains will we get from these modern deposits?
42043But how did they come to shift to the Tropics so many millions of years before the palms, etc., of the Tertiaries thought it time to do the same?
42043But if this be granted, we must then inquire, What was its nature?
42043But let us take some of the"late"Tertiary and Pleistocene mammals, which can not be distinguished from living species, and how do we fare?
42043But what other class of the animal kingdom will not point us a similar lesson?
42043But where have these fellows kept themselves during all the intervening ages while the continents were deep under the ocean time and time again?
42043But whither shall we turn to avoid finding similar phenomena?
42043But why should it be necessary for us to positively settle the question as to just how far back in geological time Man actually did live?
42043CHAPTER V TURNED UPSIDE DOWN How many of us have ever seen a mountain fall?
42043Did the elements continue in the_ status quo_ all these uncounted millions of years?
42043Do we understand all natural processes?
42043Does it come of good stock, or is its family low and not very respectable?
42043Does memory guide these little things in their wonderful division of labor?
42043Have we already a sufficiently broad knowledge of the rocks of the world to decide such a question?
42043How can it be improved?
42043How could the origin of present forms and conditions be in any way at variance with the laws by which these forms or conditions are maintained?
42043How could this bone breccia have been accumulated?...
42043I should think so; but then what becomes of this doctrine of uniformity?
42043If I am now asked: What do the rocks have to tell us, in view of the fact that they refuse to testify to a life succession?
42043If, as this illustrious author says,"The seas had not been depopulated,"what would he have us think they were doing?
42043In common honesty will a short eternity itself satisfy the stern problem before us?
42043Is it possible that all the plants and animals of the Tertiaries and the Pleistocene may have really lived together in the same world after all?
42043Our first and most natural inquiry is, What is it that leads scientists to think so?
42043The climate had not changed a bit: how did they come to scent the coming"Glacial Age"so much earlier than their more highly organized fellows?
42043This fault has a vertical displacement of more than 15,000 feet(?
42043Were they forming no deposits all these intervening ages that the Carboniferous, Permian, and Triassic were being piled up?
42043What fact or facts have been omitted from Part II that should be| included in a true, safe, induction regarding the past of our| globe?
42043What has Geology to do with all this?
42043What has been its surroundings?
42043What is its family history?
42043What is there to hinder us from believing that they all lived there together in that olden time?
42043What is your opinion of Part I as an exposure of the Evolution| Theory?
42043What kind of evidence can it be?
42043Where then can we find a stratified or bedded structure now being formed over the ocean bottom?
42043Who has not read of their untainted meat now making food for dogs and wolves?
42043Why did the crinoids and polyp- corals suspend business from"Jurassic times"to the"recent,"merely to accommodate a modern theory?
42043Why did they form no deposits during the Cretaceous, Eocene, Miocene or Pliocene ages?
42043Why does the one build up claws and the other brain cells?
42043Will some one please give us a reasonable explanation of why the lion, hippopotamus, rhinoceros, and elephant shifted from England to the tropics?
42043Would it not be economy of energy to correlate the two together?
42043Would the production of a few billion such beginnings of protoplasm be any less''natural''than of one alone?
42043and if so, how did they receive notice that the Triassic period was at last ended, and that it was time for them to begin work again?
42043and what its extent?
42043or why are not the rocks containing their fossils as"recent"as any deposits on the globe?
