After a long time Man appeared upon the scene, but the old law worked Tight on, and we find human beings treating one another just as Ichthyo- saurus treated Dinosaurus, and Mastodon treated Cave Bear. From the Deginning of human history the rule among men and nations has been that of brute force and low cunning—“let him keep who can.” But hold! Not too fast, if you him take who has the power, and let please. In the brain and heart of Man lay the germs out of which a fairer order of things was to come. ‘That early Man heard voices that were unknown to,the “Monsters of the prime, that tore each other in thet r slime;” and as he listened he began to learn, by slow degrees, about gentleness, as against the old spirit of brute force, and about justice, as opposed to the plunder. irit of gréed and And right there and then the battle was won.

Already powerful, the feeling that it is the duty of the strong to help the weak, and not only so, but that oftentimes the s6-called “unfit” are well worth preserving, is gaining strength every day. By the standard of brute force Ji esus was one of the “unfit,” as were the crippled Epictetus, the physically weak Shelley, the half-demented Charles Lamb, and the narrow-chested Emersoi for the world when those choice spi And so we reach, at last, the heart of the whole thing. ; but what a gain it was rits survived! Starting with matter and its forces, with animalism and its appetites, we finally reach Man, who, through ages of struggle, becomes acquainted with his better self, learns about Justice and kindness, and, best of all, learns that these things are final, the true objective of all his efforts. It was in consequence of what m en have learned in this direction that Prussianism was defeated; for did not the leading men and women in all the lands feel that it is not by “Blood and Tron” but by love and the right that the world should be ruled?
