NEXT STEP IN EVOLUTION 



Blanc or Mount Washington ; but 

 there is only one way to know 

 thern, and that is to grow the fac- 

 ulties of music and beauty. 



To the Eoman soldiers who may 

 have heard it, how unsubstantial 

 was the Sermon on the Mount; 

 yet its truths of the brotherhood 

 of man, of the fatherhood of God, 

 of meekness, of loving, of justice, 

 of faith in the inner things, out- 

 lasted the Eoman armies, saw the 

 empire ground to dust, and their 

 speaker, nineteen hundred years 

 afterward, by far the most potent 

 personality that ever lived. The 

 mother's love will outpull gravity, 

 and yet what scientist has chemic- 

 ally analyzed it, or what dissect- 

 ing-knife has revealed its where- 

 abouts? There are brute women 

 to whom this love is " unthink- 

 able, " "unknowable," but let 

 them grow the mother-heart, and 

 then they can think it, know it.
