I'OO The Evolution of Mind. 



have said, the attention is so powerfully attracted to the seat of 

 pain that it cannot be withdrawn. 1 admit, however, that as far 

 as the facts are concerned, tliey are explainable from either point 

 of view. As to takinj; a lesson from the ants or any of the lower 

 animals on this subject, it is impossible to show the organization 

 of mind among them : we can only show that in them as in man 

 mind is adapted to its environment. Therefore the method which 

 I adopted seems to be the only one practicable in the presentation 

 of this topic.
