A Dig at the Evolutionists 



to believe that, if in our days you confine 

 your hunting to a single kind of game, it is 

 because you have never known any other. i\ 

 prefer to believe that your common ances- 1 

 tre^, your precursor, Whether her* ta'stes i 

 were simple or complex, is a pure chimera,^>> 

 for, if there were any relationship between 

 you, having tested everything in order to 

 arrive at the actual food of each species, 

 having eaten everything and found it grate- 

 ful to the stomach, you would now, from 

 first to last, be unprejudiced consumers, om- 

 nivorous progressives. I prefer to beheve, 

 in short, that the theory of evolution is pow- 

 erless to explain your diet. This is the con- 

 clusion drawn from the dining-room installed 

 in my old sardincnbox.
