  so 
  as 
  to 
  exclude 
  them, 
  that 
  is 
  a 
  question 
  of 
  method, 
  but 
  

   to 
  think 
  of 
  leaving 
  them 
  out 
  in 
  our 
  total 
  interpretation 
  of 
  

   our 
  experience 
  is 
  to 
  allow 
  the 
  light 
  that 
  is 
  in 
  us 
  to 
  he 
  

   darkened. 
  Similarly, 
  although 
  there 
  is 
  great 
  difference 
  of 
  

   opinion 
  in 
  regard 
  to 
  the 
  philosophy 
  of 
  the 
  beautiful, 
  there 
  

   is 
  general 
  agreement 
  that 
  our 
  total 
  outlook 
  on 
  Nature 
  is 
  

   to 
  be 
  distrusted 
  if 
  the 
  fact 
  of 
  beauty 
  has 
  been 
  ignored. 
  

   Feeling 
  is 
  to 
  be 
  excluded 
  from 
  scientific 
  investigation, 
  but 
  

   it 
  must 
  be 
  allowed 
  to 
  operate 
  in 
  our 
  philosophical 
  synthesi-. 
  

   Perhaps 
  we 
  may 
  say 
  that 
  feeling 
  supplies 
  the 
  mortar 
  in 
  

   which 
  are 
  laid 
  the 
  stones 
  contributed 
  by 
  Natural 
  Sci< 
  un- 
  

   to 
  the 
  (synoptic) 
  edifice 
  which 
  the 
  genius 
  of 
  Philosophy 
  is 
  

   building. 
  

  

  There 
  are 
  several 
  hopeful 
  indications 
  of 
  an 
  advance 
  

   towards 
  a 
  philosophical 
  order 
  of 
  Nature. 
  The 
  first 
  is 
  the 
  

   increasing 
  correlation 
  of 
  the 
  sciences, 
  which 
  are 
  parts 
  of 
  

   one 
  endeavour 
  to 
  understand 
  the 
  order 
  of 
  Nature 
  and 
  Man's 
  

   life 
  in 
  its 
  midst. 
  The 
  sciences 
  work 
  into 
  one 
  another's 
  hands 
  

   in 
  correlation, 
  and 
  this 
  has 
  always 
  been 
  fruitful, 
  as 
  is 
  well 
  

   illustrated 
  by 
  the 
  transforming 
  and 
  vitalising 
  of 
  chemistry 
  

   after 
  it 
  joined 
  hands 
  with 
  physics. 
  The 
  scientific 
  study 
  

   of 
  animal 
  behaviour, 
  still 
  in 
  the 
  freshness 
  of 
  its 
  youth, 
  shows 
  

   us 
  the 
  effectiveness 
  of 
  a 
  combined 
  attack 
  psychological 
  and 
  

   biological 
  on 
  a 
  difficult 
  set 
  of 
  problems. 
  The 
  autonomy 
  

   of 
  biology 
  is 
  not 
  inconsistent 
  with 
  its 
  correlation 
  imperium 
  

   in 
  imperio 
  with 
  chemistry 
  and 
  physics 
  on 
  the 
  one 
  hand 
  

   and 
  psychology 
  and 
  sociology 
  on 
  the 
  other. 
  While 
  the 
  

   sciences 
  are 
  separated 
  off 
  for 
  the 
  sake 
  of 
  clearness, 
  because 
  

   they 
  pursue 
  different 
  methods, 
  use 
  different 
  tools, 
  and 
  sum 
  

   up 
  in 
  different 
  kinds 
  of 
  formula?, 
  they 
  work 
  into 
  one 
  another's 
  

   hands, 
  and 
  they 
  are 
  simply 
  different 
  modes 
  of 
  one 
  rational 
  

   inquiry. 
  Their 
  mutual 
  influence 
  is 
  increased, 
  not 
  decreased,
