The man of the fature was dis cussed by Prof. Arthur Keith, the famous anthropologist, in the course of his concluding lecture or Darwin's Theory of man's arigin given at the Royal Institution in mail week.
Will the future evolution of man create a being of pure intellect? Prof. Keith thinks not, and be traversed Mr. H. G. Wells's anticipa tions on the subject with wit and
good humour.
ne may safely prophesy," he said, "that if evolution bolds sway in the future man will remain much the same imperfect, lovable being as Le is now."
Incidentally, the professor drew a
number of deductions for his forecast from the daily Press. He explained, bow Darwin was the first to recognise the vast world of local, government hidden in human nature.
In the rise of the brain through the higher animals one could trace, he said, every stop which led up to the dominant position of the human cerebrum. This cerebram, or higher centre, governed the lower centres of emotion, passion prejudice and instinct. These latter man had brought with him up from the jungle, and he had acquired the higher centre in the promised land of manhood,
BIG HEADS AND SMALL BODIES.
Yel," added Professor Keith, hile our instite may have de- ereksed, our emotions and passions have increased. We have added to our inheritance of the jungle. The difference between the emotions of the ape and the emotions of men is the difference between a poor street fiddler scraping away in the gutter and the full Queen's Hall Orchestra.
- The usual idea which runs through men's minds when they think of what bumanity may become in the future Is of a race of beings perfectly rational, beings in whom! intellect is dominant, and who have purged themselves of prejudice, pas sion and emotion. It is, in brief, a race of people with big heads and small bodies.
"Yet just try to picture honestly -what such a world would be like. A world of Einsteins and Newtons, of Alexanders and Napoleons, Aristotles and Kants, Homers and Shakespeares is that the kind of world you would really enjoy?
A LIFE WORTH LIVING.
"Imagine every time you sat down to breakfast you were cocfined to -highfalutin' talk on Relativity. Would you have any digestion left?

When Mrs. Bull opens her morning newspaper she looks first for the births, marriages and deaths. There she shows a very healthy instinct which gives her pleasure and brings the country prosperity.
