118 PHILOSOPHICAL NOTES ON 



. . . . . " That phenomena go on in endless consequences, and 



that every act has been preceded by some other act, and that every act -will 

 be followed by some other act ; that the causes of all the phenomena of the 

 universe that we wish to explain in a system of philosophy run back into the 

 infinite past ; that the consequences of all of the phenomena which we may 

 now observe in the universe will run on into the infinite future. This is 

 evolution." — Life of Dakwin, by C. F. Holder, p. 224. — (John W. Powell.)
