Certain organic compounds were made by nature; they could not be made by human beings. The compounds came together in some manner, and the result was life.” So says Prof, 4 P. Matthews, of Chicago untversity. After such « lucid explanation as this, who can explain that there $ such &@ thing as “the riddie of the universe?” The world has not forgotten Prof. Loeb, formerly, also, of the Chicago university, who, a couple of years ago, announced that he had achieved the creation of life by chemical means, Indeed, Prof. Loeb will not permit himself to be forgotten, and how he comes forward again and says that he has succeeded in arti- ficially fertilizing the eggs of sea urchins. ‘This is not startling In view of the fact that Prof. Loeb, some years ago, after a series of experiments at Woods Holl, Mass, made a similar s‘xtement, then saying that the fertitfaation of the eggs of sea urchins Was accomplished through the action of sea water Perhaps if these eminent scientists persist in thetr experiments long enough they may yet make the discovery that hen's eggs can be hatehed in an incubater amd thet therefore Life is entirely a ical product. Huxiey at one time thought he bad discovered that animal life waa capable of spontancous generation and came up out of rock scum, Dut he found that Be was mistaken. Many evoluttontsts have held that the theory of evolution implies that animal life te a comtinuation of vegetable life and was in the be- gimning the result of physical and chemiea! causes. But this leaves the real mystery of origin Just as it was before. ‘One of the familiar methods of propagation is by parthen conests —the splitting of celia. Such reproduction does not depend on sexual fertilization. Many species have been found whose eggs, even though detached from the parent, are bisexual and so hatch of themacives, It ts possible that Prof. Loch has merely demonstrated that the ees of the sea urchin under certain conditions reproduce according to this method. Ht ts unfortunate that Prof. Loeb is confining his operation to the preduction of sea urchins. There is already a great supply of sea uréhins and no demand for them. ‘Tt be desires to be taken seriously Im this material age he must 0 tuto the unlimited production of lobsters, of oysters, or something for which there is a market" Were he to go tuto the chemical production of cattle, for in- stamce, the meat trust would meet its fins® far more effectively than it fe Likely ever to doin the courts. Or, if it be beneath the high dignity of science to cater to appe- tites an@ vulgar commerce, it still remains for Prof. Loeb to chem- feally produce a few men, unhampered by the evils of heredity. Men @ produced might be perfect, free froen physical and mental weak- neases, from pre@isposttion to disease and from original sin. ‘Thas might Prof. Loeb’s discovery prove a great benefaction to the human race. A new Adam, with no need of an Eve and tempta- tion, might restore us to Eden. But poor, little, useleag sea urchins! There are more already than anybody wants. They can reproduce themscives fast enough for any needs. The same chemical forces which make the brain of a Darwin, a Spencer and a Huxley make the earthworm and the jellyfish? It this were true, yet mankind would still hark back to the unan- swered cry of ages: Whence and whither? When a Chicago university professor can answer this he doubtless find that all his deep speculations and fine phrases about the chemical origin of life are but vanity and vexation of spirit.
