Greece and which was then taken up by Rome and propagated through Europe, has alone been able to hold its own against this universal moral gravitation. Only those nations which stand in this current or borrow from it have gotten ahead. - vThus the remote and difficult science of anthropology lends its sanction, after a fashion, to those modern politicians and sociologists who declare that freedom and civilization must be continually rerwon. There is never any-stoppage and we are not permitted to rest on our oars: If we don't push forward, we will drift backward.

Skeletons, Politics, Etc. Dr. Resk of the geological department of Berlin University, has recently unearthed a human skeleton which he computes to be 150,000 years old. This relic of a completely vanished past was lying among fossil remains of various extinct monsters. That they were real monsters is proved by the fact that among the fossils was a ten foot tooth. The geologist was convinced that the stratum in which these remains were found had once been the bottom of a lake and since the human

skeleton was lying in an awkward position, it suggested to him that it had not been regularly interred, but that the man had probably been drowned. One of the surprising things about this skeleton is that it shows a relatively high degree of development. The skull is broad at the base and much higher than that of the crania of savages and was the home, so Dr. Resk believes, of an intellect of a somewhat high order. If this is true, the age of the human race, as the evolutionists measure it, is almost inconceivable. But other authorities of things ancient do not agree with the illustrious German savant in his interpretation of the skeleton, but think it was buried in the bottom of the lake at a much later period. Prof. Frederick Wright, for instance, estimates it to be only 7,000 years old. The controversy aroused over this find and the wide variance of opinions advanced by the various authorities, leads a layman to feel that in view of a lack of more accurate knowledge regarding

such questions, the better part of intellectual j norant of it

valor is to remain very modest. One angle brought out in these discussions is that the race as a whole is characterized by a tendency toward stationariness or retrogression. That current of development which began at the Euphrates Valley, spread to Egypt and later to

A Literary Idol This poor nation has once more been tried in the balances and found wanting. Dr. George Brandes has condescended to pay us a visit (the "us" means, of course, New; York City). His stay lasted two weeks, but that was sufficient, it seems, to permit that Danish literateur to take our size, California, Texas, the Mississippi valley, the South, and all. Our 100,000,000 inhabitants were dumped into his little melting pot and distilled. And he didn't think much of the distillation, especially the literary ingredient. "Your books," he said "are written by old maids." Taking into consideration that Emerson, Thoreau, Whitman, Mark Twain, Ambrose Bierce, Robert Herrick, Jack London and Upton Sinclair

are among "our writers," this is considerable of a compliment to the spinsters. Dr. Brandes took a whack at Rudolph Eucken, largely, it seems, because America has adopted him. He also freezes Henri Bergson with a word. "I understand you admire Eucken and Bergson in this country. For me they do not exist. Do they preach anything new? They raise one finger and say 'You must do this ! You must do that!' And this intuitive philosophy that Bergson teaches! How can one set intuition above reason!" Of course, Bergson doesn't displace the intellect by intuition as a slight reading of "Creative Evolution" will prove; nor does Eucken say "do this: don't do that." His refusal to do this is just the fault most often found with him. Dr. Brandes has shown a remarkable ignorance of American literature. But Dr. Brandes is a literary idol. For that

reason he has a right, we suppose, to remain ig-

And being an European idol, he

exercised the right to take America's measure in a two weeks' visit. We beg leave to submit that some idols are plentifully mixed with clay. Also that it is about time our visitors were made to realize that there is at least a small fringe of this nation west of New York.
