the variety of nature, and his fondness for exact system often. tempts him to emphasise the in- stances in favour of a hypothesis and to disregard the exceptions on the other side..

The second comes from the bins and prejudies of individual oh- servers. The three doeters in Mr. Shaw's play could naver hope to come to agreement-ong is In boratory researcher who looks nt science through a test-tube, one a surgeon with a favourite opera tion, one general practitioner who looks on ser and surgery with mequally tolerant disbelief.

The Personal Bias. History, again, is more often the portrayal of it writer that of its subject: the Abbe Higne, tells us

that

But there is no need to multiply example? A week-old description of a street-accident will contain almost as many versions as there. were witnesses to record it.

The third and most fruitful source of error is our careless and inaccurate use of words. Thero are some names to which no fact corresponds, like the Painter's Ialand of the old maps and the Peroterion of the old herbale: others like Socialism, liberty, self-expression, do represent reali- ties; but are so vague and indeter minate that they have become fruitful sources of confusion,

The fourth is over-addition to systems which have become ob solete in the progress of 'further discovery. The Ptolemaic Istro- nomy gave way, before Copernicus, tho boundaries of the Newtonian physics have been enlarged by Einstein: it is equally foolish to disparage our great man and to accept their conclusions us etern- ally valid.

No doubt Bacon was wrong, in holding that his method would "equalise. all intellecta." No method without genius could have given us Faraday, as no Faraday without method could have brought
