In reviewing the "Outline of History" by Mr. H. G. Walk, a writer in a home | paper, says 2

It is a bold thing to write a history of the world in 600 pages, and perhaps even a holder one to attempt to describe it in 600 words p

Mr. Wells, however, go off in dashing style with description of the sun whirl ing as redhot vapour and matter through space and throwing off the planets in agony. The earth was hurled out with such violence tha: a bit of it called the moon broke off, and became its satellite. After this we have a vivid picture of

Then the outer vapours began to condense into seas, and it was in the sens that life began, much in the form that it exists today in any wayside ditch in

summer.

Mr. Wolls describes how in torrential downpours of hot rain en hot carth life in snake or fish or tree crept slowly up to conquer the barren rocks of the land. Then came the great Saurian lizards thirty felt long-and vanished again in some catastrophe of which we have no record.

THE FIRST MAN.

So rapid is the pace of describing what it took millions of years to accomplish that we almost wish the narrative could be put on the ciasmatograph in a series of dis solving views.
