ute, the same process formed a class of smaller fins or a 

 minute hairy covering, out of the exuded particles of 

 refuse from the body which was carried outward. This 

 hairy covering being also nature's process in working to 

 perpetuate species. The cold continuing to increase, 

 and in consequence the deposit carried outward contin- 

 ued to adhere to the outer portion of the next preceding 

 lair. Thereby keeping the center open for the carriage 

 of the off-fall from the organic system. The off-fall 

 from the organic system building constantly on the 

 outer surface of the body, and in so doing forming a 

 covering for the body to keep it warm or conform to the 

 change in nature passing in the interim. 



This form of life had the pores of excretion more 

 plentifully present in the portion of the body, where 

 nature would develop by the waste matter from the sys- 

 tem, a means of propelling life of the organic order. 

 Nature using the waste matter to build up means of pro- 

 pelling the form of life upward and onward. Or more 

 properly admitting of the propulsion of the form of 

 life so as to admit of its transportation to points where 

 change was not so extraordinary; during the interim 

 the body was protected by a covering made of off-fall, 

 same being hair, carried outward through minute pores 

 provided by nature for the occasion. 



Taking it all in all, we find nature provides means 

 for securing all her works against any emergency. 



Where the mountain tops had some body of earth 

 so as to maintain temperature for a couple of weeks of 

 constant, produced the bird life of various forms, each
