OUR BODIES NOT FOOL-PROOF.
Sir Arthur Keith's · Huxley Lecture at Charing Cross Hos pital dealt with "Teleolgy and Evolution." It was not very comforting deliverance, inasmuch as it took the view that man's dastiny is written in the germ plasm from which he springs But "there may be some CONFO lation in knowing that there is nothing we can say,or de, eat or drink, which will alter our evolu- tionary dealing." Sir Althur ad ded that the discovery of fire, and so of cooked food,' was a great, evolutionary step affecting bu man life, for the body, had then its nourismeni presented to it in a state which no anime) body had experienced before. He added:--
In these present days the con ditions of human life have been sgain révolutionized; we abide in cilies and live in house; we work in heated factories, we breathe! air laden with fumes of diverse kinds, we dat artifically prepared and concentrated foods, many of a novel kind; we drink boverages containing alkaloids which were unknown to our ancestors. We cannot claim that our bodies are escaping certain effects produced by modern methods of life. Nature. has not made our bodies fcol.i proof. It would be a relief to know that the source from which the now generations of mankind issue was beyond any source of permanent contamination. is it?
But
TO A MILLIONth of AN ́INCH. ·
Wonderful things were to be seen at the National Physical Laboratory at Teddington. They were shown to many guests of the General Board on the occasion of its annual inspection. "One could wander everywhere, and, every- "where find willing help, explana- tion, and demonstration. Of great general interest were the millionth comparator and the rating of watches and chronomotors-two different pieces of apparatus, bativ designed and made in the labors tory, measuring to an accuracy of a millionth part of an inch. What this means may be diinly under- alood when it is stated that there are as many millionths of an inch in the thickness of a cigarette paper as there are cigarette papers in an inch. As for the watcher and chronometers, the "K-w" tests have Leen conducted at the laboratory for eleven years. A rating of the standard clock is obtained by time signale le graphed from Greenwich wirelessed from Paris and Nord deich. A curious devic enables the difference in rata between 4 watch and the clock fram day to day to be establiebed to abou! one hundredth of a second.
