142 THE PORTAL OF EVOLUTION 



evolution points. But it is far more likely to be evolved by a 

 new departure in the course of evolution than by the direct 

 action of the mind of man, or by legal restrictions. Such, for 

 instance, as an increase of barrenness on the part of lazy and 

 pleasure-loving women, and such alteration in our status quo, 

 according to my hypothesis, must be brought about by the 

 release, on the part of nature, and the absorption on the part 

 of mankind of a more than usual amount of radio-activity from 

 material creation, or from the planets and the ether that sur- 

 rounds them. This, I take it by my hypothesis, has probably 

 accompanied each great change as a fresh attribute of trinity, 

 or a number of such attributes have brought some evolution 

 or collection of evolutions to completion at various stages of 

 evolution.
