2634	But to Saul nothing is visible, for he asks,"What seest thou?"
2634	Can any other conclusion be drawn from the history of Abraham and Isaac?
2634	Does Abraham exhibit any indication of surprise when he receives the astounding order to sacrifice his son?
2634	Does not the action of Saul, on a famous occasion, involve exactly the same theological presuppositions?
2634	Does this mean that Seth resembled Adam only in a spiritual and figurative sense?

41839	Is this taste natural?
41839	Now, what are we to infer from this experiment?

30495	And when the goal is reached, what will be revealed?
30495	And why, at the same temperature, are some substances held together with such enormous rigidity, others so loosely?
30495	And''spectroscopes,''''photographs''--what, pray, are these?
30495	Are they actually material particles hurled through the ether?
30495	Are they destined throughout the sweep of time to keep up this celibate existence?
30495	But what if he had had a bucketful of the little boneless creatures at his disposal, as the worker at Naples now may have any day for the asking?
30495	But why go farther?
30495	But, for that matter, what is the nature of these intermolecular bonds in any case?
30495	Have these celibate atoms remained thus always isolated, taking no part in world- building?
30495	How might such insulation be accomplished?
30495	If this is true of the mere marble images, what shall we say of the emblems on the centre table?
30495	In other words, what is the real status, and the import and meaning, the_ raison d''être_, if you will, of the science of zoology to- day?
30495	Man still wages warfare on his fellow- man as he has done time out of mind; as he will do-- who shall say how long?
30495	Need I say that these again are troublous times?
30495	Or are they like light-- and possibly the Roentgen rays-- simply undulations in the ether?
30495	Or were we entering some Iowa village, where the first settlers still live who but yesterday banished the prairie- dog and the buffalo?
30495	Prom what non- human parent did the human race directly spring?
30495	QUERIES SUGGESTED BY THE NEW GASES Suppose that a few years ago you had asked some chemist,"What are the constituents of the atmosphere?"
30495	Should the whole fabric of classification be abandoned?
30495	The government promptly accepted the offer-- as why should it not, since it had at hand so easy a means of raising the necessary money?
30495	To be sure, he never catches the shrimp-- but what of that?
30495	Was he very proud and haughty, as if he could not speak to other people?"

30495	What, then, is the present status of Haeckel''s genealogical tree regarding man''s most direct ancestor?
30495	What, then, is this all- compassing power of gravitation which occupies so central a position in the scheme of mechanical things?
30495	What, then, was to be done?
30495	Where are the remembrances of that extraordinary man whom the original charter describes as"our well- beloved Benjamin, Count of Rumford?"
30495	Who knows what are the conditions necessary to the evolution of the ever- present atoms into"vital"associations?
30495	Who shall say, then, what forlorn hope of to- day''s science may not be the conquering host of to- morrow?

37513	Accepting, then, awareness as given, we must ask: Awareness of what?
37513	And can we say that this conception is useless for scientific interpretation?
37513	And what about force?
37513	And when it comes to doing, what can be more dramatically positive than that which bears a name of negation?
37513	And why?
37513	Are the plants in the cottager''s window, when they grow towards the light, aware of a process in their own tissues?
37513	Awareness of what?
37513	But is it not the_ electrical relatedness_ that is constitutive of the atom as such?
37513	But is it the sort of unification with which a philosophy of science should rest content?
37513	But what is this reality?
37513	But what, on these terms, becomes of evolution itself as a problem to be solved?
37513	But where Spencer failed, who has come within measurable sight of success?
37513	Can music or any form of art be discussed in terms of cognition only?
37513	Does he not urge that we can neither reach it in this way, nor in any other way?
37513	Does the logic of events imply a Logos?
37513	For example: is the earth aware of its own motion?
37513	Have I then written all those pages and pages on the Unknowable for nought?
37513	How can mere relatedness as such_ do_ anything?
37513	How do we get in scientific interpretation from the one to the other?
37513	How, for instance, did the specific relationships exhibited in the fabric of crystals arise out of the primitive fire- mist relations?
37513	If a Source of phenomena be postulated, why not postulate One Source of all phenomena from the very meanest to the very highest?
37513	Is it not active in the sense required?
37513	Is not energy that which produces observable change?
37513	Is this, then, Spencer''s answer?
37513	Of what, then, is there awareness?
37513	Or are they aware of the sunshine?
37513	Or are they in some measure aware of the connexion between the one and the other?
37513	Or is it aware of the relation of the one to the other?
37513	Or is it aware of the solar system?
37513	Shall we not then glory in defeat and sing its praises often?
37513	The question: But what evolves the evolved?
37513	Then why not leave it at that?
37513	Was it not accepted by all of_ us_--the enlightened and emancipated men of science whose ranks I had joined as a raw recruit?
37513	Was it not this that he himself regarded as his main contribution to philosophy?
37513	Was not this itself a supreme example of the evolution of that diversity which the formula enables us to interpret?
37513	What are these terms?
37513	What is here meant by a state of consciousness?
37513	What, then, becomes of the scientific conception of energy?
37513	When we say that a thing is in a field of electromotive force we mean( do we not?)

37589	But all this is below ground; where then are our fairy rings? 37589 But, master,"burst forth the lad, now the silence was broken,"tell me why did that strange light of many tints shine upon the dark moon?"
37589	Can any magic tale be more marvellous, or any thought grander, or more sublime than this? 37589 Did you notice it, Alwyn?"
37589	I have often told you, boys, have I not? 37589 If we are magicians and work spells under magic glasses, why should not the pixies work spells on the grass?
37589	What are these streaks? 37589 What are they?"
37589	All, did I say?
37589	And now how shall I best give you an idea of what little we do know about this great surging monster of light and heat which shines down upon us?
37589	And the true horse, where did he arise?
37589	But now comes the question, How does each stem live after the nourishing threads below have died?
37589	CHAPTER VII AN EVENING AMONG THE STARS[ Illustration]"Do you love the stars?"
37589	Can you guess what plants these were?
37589	Does not the thought fill us with awe, that our little eye should be able to span such vast distances?
37589	How is it, then, that these moss stems, though each independent, grow in such a dense mass?
37589	I wonder if it strikes you what a grand discovery this is?
37589	If I could cross over it and go on and on should I be in a world which had no ending, and what would be on the other side?
37589	Is not this like magic?
37589	Looking through the telescope, is it not difficult to imagine how people could ever have pictured them as a man''s face?
37589	Shall we go up and see it?"
37589	So having travelled over America, Europe, and Asia, was my quest ended?
37589	The next question is, What is the mist itself composed of?
37589	Then it must be made of stars too far off to see?
37589	These are the chief parts we use in seeing; now how do we use them?
37589	Was I wrong, then, when I said that my miniature ocean contains as many millions of beings as there are stars in the heavens?
37589	What can have happened?
37589	What was he doing?
37589	What was on the other side of the stile?
37589	Where have they all come from?
37589	Where shall we look for the first ancestors of these wild and graceful animals?
37589	Which of you now can name the pixie who makes them?"
37589	Who can tell?
37589	Why do these suns give out such beautiful coloured light?
37589	Would its light linger even for a moment, like the light of the setting sun?
37589	Yet to the watchers it was a great matter-- would the star give any further clue to the question of an atmosphere round the moon?
54557	Are the lights to be all of the same degree of brilliancy?
54557	Does he see it?

28274	Does it result from some innate tendency in each species?
28274	How has this come to pass?
28274	In this case, therefore, there was one, and there are now two exactly similar; but are these two individuals?

28274	Or has the form and size and texture some reference to the structure and organisation, the habits and requirements of the whole plant?
28274	Since, then, there is so much complex structure in a single leaf, what must it be in a whole plant?

36343	Why?
36343	Will man never cease slandering the good Deity, and libeling the beneficent Creator of all good?
36343	Will they listen to France''s Macedonian call and the law of love and life written in their womanly natures?
36343	Will they receive the gift of eternal life?
36343	what qualities are you weaving in your thread of thought?
36343	who can know?
1707	( 2) JOULE OR MAYER? 1707 But how did the solar atmosphere determine the movements of the rotation and revolution of the planets and satellites?
1707	From whence came this heat which was continually given off in this manner, in the foregoing experiments?
1707	Is it possible that the heat could have been supplied by means of the iron bar to the end of which the blunt steel borer was fixed? 1707 Was it furnished by the air?
1707	Was it furnished by the small particles of metal detached from the larger solid masses on their being rubbed together? 1707 Was it furnished by the water which surrounded the machinery?
1707	What kind of proofs, therefore, could we reasonably expect to find of the origin at a particular period of a new species? 1707 And are not these the properties of ordinary tangible matter? 1707 And had not Faraday reached middle life before he turned his attention especially to electricity? 1707 And the question therefore arises, what other forms is force, which we have become acquainted with as falling force and motion, capable of assuming? 1707 Are we to infer, then, that the two Americas in their unions and disunions have juggled with the climate of the other hemisphere? 1707 But does this really mean that a full synopsis of the story of paleontology has been told? 1707 But have we any proof that such formation of rocks in an ocean- bed has, in fact, occurred? 1707 But how explain this strange phenomenon? 1707 But how shall we describe a process which nobody has seen performed and of which no written history gives any account? 1707 But if not air, what then? 1707 But what did Herschel learn regarding these awful depths of space and the stars that people them? 1707 Each star that blinked down at him as he rode in answer to a night- call seemed an interrogation- point asking, How do I exist? 1707 How could the old, familiar phenomenon, light, interest any one when the new agent, galvanism, was in view? 1707 How did they get there? 1707 How else came they to contain the shells of once living organisms imbedded in their depths? 1707 How else than through such formation in an ocean- bed came these rocks to be stratified? 1707 If the earth has been inhabited by successive populations of beings now extinct, how have all these creatures been destroyed? 1707 In any event, how chanced it that all were projected in nearly the same plane as we now find them? 1707 Is it not probable, then, that what we call matter consists merely of aggregations of infinitesimal vortex rings in the ether? 1707 Is our sun that centre? 1707 Or by the small neck of gun- metal by which the hollow cylinder was united to the cannon? 1707 Or is it possible that new species can be called into being from time to time, and yet that so astonishing a phenomenon can escape the naturalist? 1707 Seldom if ever was a great revolutionary doctrine expounded in briefer compass:What are we to understand by''forces''?
1707	Such perpendicular vibrations seem not to exist, else we might see around a corner; how explain their absence?
1707	The results?
1707	Then may not the new species of a later geological epoch be the modified lineal descendants of the extinct population of an earlier epoch?
1707	Through what agency has the ooze of the ocean- bed been transformed into solid rock?
1707	Was not the heat produced, or at least some part of it, occasioned by this friction of the piston?
1707	Were the planets struck from the sun by the chance impact of comets, as Buffon has suggested?
1707	What could they be?
1707	What had become of the fragments?
1707	What secrets may the stars hope to conceal when questioned by an instrument of such necromantic power?
1707	What then?
1707	What then?
1707	What, then, is this storm- centre?
1707	Whence now comes this quantity of heat, which by repeated shaking may be called into existence in the same apparatus as often as we please?
1707	Who remembers now that Robert Hooke contested with Newton the discovery of the doctrine of universal gravitation?
1707	Why have I not long since burned out if your theory of conservation be true?
1707	Why might not this debris solidify to form layers of rocks-- the basis of new continents?
1707	Why not, indeed?
1707	and how are different forces related to each other?
1707	and through what agency has this rock been lifted above the surface of the water to form new continents?
1707	or do they owe their origin to some unknown law?
1707	or thrown out by explosive volcanic action, in accordance with the theory of Dr. Darwin?
16325	''But why,''you ask,''the most wonderful civilizing agency?
16325	''Why, what did they want to build a city right up here for, anyway?''
16325	Ah, yes, but what proportion of him?
16325	And how did the first Watt or Edison of metallurgy come to make that earliest bronze implement?
16325	And how does the preponderance of butterflies in the upper regions of the air affect the colour and brilliancy of the flowers?
16325	And what Roman or English name does it represent?
16325	And what are the elements of this tropical curriculum which give it such immense educational value?
16325	And what is it that makes all the difference between this''cute Yankee marsupial and his backward and belated Australian cousins?
16325	And what then do you see?
16325	And when we do so, we see for ourselves at once that almost all capsules open-- where?
16325	And why?
16325	And why?
16325	And why?
16325	Because it''s too cold for them?
16325	But did they really exterminate the native Celt- Euskarian population?
16325	But how about the juice, the sap, the qualities of the soil, the manure required?
16325	But what inroad could the stone hatchet make unaided upon the virgin forests of those remote days?
16325	But what is the meaning of Wigorna ceaster or Wigran ceaster?
16325	But where?
16325	But why are cactuses so almost universally prickly?
16325	But why did the people of the Arno Valley fix upon the particular site of Fiesole?
16325	But why this particular height rather than any other of the dozen that jut out into the plain?
16325	For why does Fiesole stand just where it does?
16325	Have you ever grown mustard and cress in the window on a piece of flannel?
16325	How are slums conceivable or East Ends possible where every man can plant his own yam and cocoa- nut, and reap their fruit four- hundred- fold?
16325	How can he ever form any fitting conception of the glory of life-- of the means by which animal and vegetable organisms first grew and flourished?
16325	How can he frame to himself any reasonable picture of civilised society, or of the origin and development of human faculty and human organisation?
16325	How does it come that in these southern climates the hill- top town has survived so much more generally to our own day than in Northern Europe?
16325	How''s that for an inducement to study life where it is richest and most abundant in its native starting- place?
16325	However, this rough solution of the problem proves too much: for how then can we have a still softer form in Danish Leicester itself?
16325	If any one were to ask me( which is highly unlikely)''In what university would an intelligent young man do best to study?''
16325	If dead sheep are good to eat, why not also living ones?
16325	Now, how does this bear upon the family of parrots?
16325	Now, why are Alpine plants so anxious to be seen of men and angels?
16325	Now, why should a parrot so strangely disguise itself and belie its ancestry?
16325	Was the change partly due to the preservation of the older sound on the lips of Celtic serfs?
16325	What are the efficient causes of this exceptionally high intelligence in parrots?
16325	What did the bronze axe ever do for humanity?''
16325	What is the use of the roots, and especially of the rootlets, if they are not the mouths and supply- tubes of the plants?
16325	What keeps them down, then, in the end to their average number?
16325	What made them build a city up there, anyway?
16325	What need of carpentry where a few bamboos, cut down at random, can be fastened together with thongs into a comfortable chair?
16325	What prevents the development of the whole seven hundred?
16325	Whence comes the mud?
16325	Why does Hodge, who is so strong on grain and guano, know absolutely nothing about carbonic acid?
16325	Why is this, since everything in nature must needs have a reason?
16325	Why is this?
37427	But how,you may ask,"are we to cultivate this sharpness of perception?"
37427	An assistant, who was at the time conducting a class in mineralogy, once said to me:"What am I to do?
37427	And then, if again you ask,"Can you catch John''s ball?"
37427	And what shall we say of the imagination?
37427	And, when you turn to your own experience, what is the outcome of all the time and labor spent on geography?
37427	Are those qualities attributes of the lump or of its parts?
37427	Are you in doubt in regard to a mineral specimen?
37427	Are you in doubt in regard to the reactions of the substance you are analyzing, whether they are really those of a metal you suspect to be present?
37427	But ask him,"Can you pitch a ball as well as your playmate?"
37427	But do we not forget that professor of Bologna, with his frogs''legs, who sowed the seed from which all this has sprung?
37427	But how is it now?
37427	But you may ask, How can such a difference of pressure exist on different surfaces exposed to one and the same medium?
37427	But, if the velocity changes in this way, you may ask, What meaning has the definite value given in our table?
37427	Do not smile at the enthusiasm which rates so high a purely intellectual achievement?
37427	Do you rejoin that we can see the suns in a stellar cluster, but can not even begin to see the molecules?
37427	Do you tell me that it is only granted to a few men to become scholars, and that you have been educated for some industrial pursuit?
37427	Do you tell me that the absurdities of Buffon were wisdom when compared with such wild speculations as these?
37427	Do you think me an enthusiast?
37427	For do not the same general principles apply to the acquisition of knowledge in all subjects?
37427	How many of the fundamental facts of this difficult subject can be made familiar to a child?
37427	How, then, can we save our theory by which we set so much, and rightly, because it has helped us so effectively in studying Nature?
37427	In the broad fields of Nature what portion does this science cover?
37427	In what, then, does this Baconian system consist?
37427	Is it her battlefields, her castles and baronial halls, or such spots as Stratford- on- Avon, Abbotsford, and Rydal Mount?
37427	Is it not because Homer sang, Phidias wrought, and Plato, Aristotle, Demosthenes, Thucydides, with a host of others, thought and wrote?
37427	Is it supposed that scientific scholarship is any more possible under such conditions?
37427	Is this heresy?
37427	Is this revolution?
37427	Now, what takes place when one mass of matter is driven away from another-- when a cannon- ball is driven out of a gun, for example?
37427	Of course, a good fairy comes to his aid, and what does she do?
37427	So far from this, if it were necessary to choose one of two systems, I should favor the classical; and why?
37427	Such questions as these will test the completeness of his knowledge: Why is the symbol of water H_{2}O?
37427	Suppose you make him do a lot of problems involving distances, velocities, and times, will he know any more about it?
37427	The seed has been sown-- what could we desire more?
37427	What does this mean?
37427	What had it secured?
37427	What information does the symbol CO_{2} give in regard to carbonic- dioxide gas?
37427	What is it that ennobles literary culture but the great minds which, through this culture, have honored the nations to which they belong?
37427	What, now, did these experiments prove?
37427	What, then, are the tests of true scientific scholarship?
37427	Whence has this material come?
37427	Where can you find a wider field for its exercise than that opened by the discoveries of modern science?
37427	Why is it that, after twenty centuries, the memory of ancient Greece is still enshrined among the most cherished traditions of our race?
37427	Yet, was that conquest any less important to the world?
35489	''Dead, sir?'' 35489 For what, my dear friend?"
35489	How is it,she says,"that you look forward only with distaste to the practice of medicine?
35489	Is it not finished?
35489	Mr. Morse still objected to sending the note, when the fair one, brightening up, asked,''You will, then, send_ me_ on, wo n''t you?'' 35489 What chance have you,"said I,"to follow this man?"
35489	What then is the office of vitality? 35489 ''What is the use of a library to a child an hour old?'' 35489 And can your ladyship resolve to spend the rest of your days in grief and sickness? 35489 And why? 35489 At Mill Grove the weeks passed pleasantly,--is not the world always beautiful when we love somebody? 35489 But what is reflection of light?
35489	But, according to this view, what is vitality?
35489	Calling his son, who was playing in the room, the Dean said,"Frankie, what are these?"
35489	Did any of those present remember how Congress allowed him nearly to die of despair and want, only a few years before?
35489	Did ever man or woman achieve anything worthy without these dreams?
35489	Didst fancy life one summer holiday, With lessons none to learn, and naught but play?
35489	For what profession should he study?
35489	Has not God waited six thousand years for one to contemplate his works?"
35489	Have you reflected seriously before setting aside this profession?
35489	He longed to gain access to Dr. Stobæus''s library, but how should it be accomplished?
35489	He must be educated, but how?
35489	He wrote back to his father:"Oh, is it possible?
35489	His host, seeing him standing thoughtfully at the window, said,"Why so sad?"
35489	How could he support his family?
35489	How could the property be used"for the increase and diffusion of knowledge among men"?
35489	I remember his patient look when he said once,''Do n''t you think you could not come in again; I have been interrupted very often?''...
35489	I said, hurriedly:''Would ten dollars be of any service?''
35489	If to the moon, why not to the planets?
35489	If water could be decomposed by it, why not some substances heretofore regarded as simple or elementary bodies?
35489	Is it because perfection attained is not best for mortals?
35489	Is not this a prospect to keep up the most flagging spirit?
35489	On the contrary, why does flame or smoke always mount upward, though no force is used to send them in that direction?
35489	Once he said to a German student:"Tell me, candidly, are you rich, and can you afford it?
35489	Shall I never see my dear wife again?
35489	The home in Germany did not prove a happy one, but how could it without William?
35489	The question among naturalists was,"How can plants and animals have become thus changed?"
35489	The question then is, what has become of the material which filled the sac of the potato?
35489	They were all disciples of Aristotle, and had not Galileo, when a boy among them, dared to oppose the great Grecian?
35489	Was ever a man more honored?
35489	Were not you and I acquainted for three months before we discovered how completely we were made one for the other?
35489	What can I do?
35489	What had woke us all up so suddenly?
35489	What was to be done?
35489	When will the world learn toleration for those whose opinions are different from the popular thought?
35489	Why are so many of the best and sweetest things in this world a little too late in their coming?
35489	Why does it stop at a certain distance, and then return to you?...
35489	Why is this in the order of nature, that there is such a difference in the duration and destruction of her works?
35489	Why is this?
35489	Will it not be as good as to see his prescription at the apothecary''s?
35489	Will it not seem strange when the largest and finest book in papa''s library is one written by his Louis?
35489	Would he have become learned or distinguished?
35489	Would it pass the Senate?
35489	is it possible?
35489	well, and what of that?
35489	where_ did_ you get that?
35489	who can blame him that he hated poverty for his brilliant son?
38478	The question now to be solved was,''Should I make the northern or the southern portion of the province the scenes of further exploration?'' 38478 ( seeáppa) who is he? 38478 A smooth tree you may climb, however tall it is; but how can you pass over the sea, glassy as it looks? 38478 Also whether the bark of a very young tree, e. g. four years old, contain thus early the active principle, genuine? 38478 And when thou dost traverse the spirit land, And its dwellers shall ask thee,What meaneth this?"
38478	Are the nights and forenoons, as in Java, usually clear until noon?
38478	But what have been the results directly springing from these high- handed acts, these political_ faits accomplis_?
38478	But what interest have these things for you?
38478	Can specimens of the soil be procured?
38478	Canst thou still the surf that breaks on the Shoal of Rongo- mai- ta- kupe?
38478	Does it affect rich black mould, in moist forcing soils, or rather dry, stony, barren soils?
38478	Does it grow on steep acclivities, or does it seem to prefer gentle slopes or level ground?
38478	Does it grow solitary, or is it found in groups or clusters, and are its special peculiarities in this respect observable in every forest?
38478	Does it rain for months at a time, and for how many, and during what months?
38478	For how many and during what months does it rain, and during what period of the day are the showers heaviest?
38478	He inquired of the physician in attendance how long they were likely to live?
38478	He issues from the press, presented to him at Vienna, stirring publications, comparing the Maories to Pharaoh(?)
38478	How did its members respond to the efforts made to provide them with every possible appliance that munificence could supply?"
38478	How many days of rain are there in the rainy season of that particular region of the tropical zone?
38478	Is it known whether observations have ever been made by the Spanish Creoles as to the amount and duration of the rain- fall?
38478	Is it the unlimited use of spirits, or is it not rather the ignorance begotten of fanaticism run mad, which disloyally put weapons into your hands?
38478	On what soil does it grow most abundantly and luxuriantly?
38478	Or does it not rain at all, in which case is its place supplied by regular afternoon storms?
38478	Say what has filled the graves of Mahaéna with human bones?
38478	Sin proteccion, pues, y sin estimulo, ni oficial, ni social, ¿ qué se podrá esperar de las letras Peruanas?"
38478	Such was the reasoning once avowed by a murderess of her child:--"Why should my child live?
38478	That thou mayst have a comely aspect, That when thou art bidden to a feast, They may not ask,"Whence cometh this_ red- lipped_ woman?"
38478	That when thou dost enter the circle of dancers, They may not ask,"Whence cometh this woman with the ugly lips?"
38478	That, when thou crossest the threshold of a strange house, They may not say,"Whence cometh this ugly woman?"
38478	The grasp of a chief''s red hand can not be loosened, but the grasp of a slave, what strength has it?

38478	What are the general meteorological conditions, and what is the annual amount of rain- fall?
38478	What are the highest and lowest limits of the_ Cinchona Calisaya_, or at all events, what is the altitude of the region in which it most abounds?
38478	What can I say more?
38478	What description of bark is the most prized, that from the young and slender, or that from the larger and older trees?
38478	What is independence or even affluence to the exile, if he has no one to care for, or think of, but himself?
38478	What is the description of the rock formation, trachytic, granitic, or gneiss, or are slate or sandstone the characteristic formations?
38478	What is the unvarying warmth of the soil, as observed at a depth of 5 feet below the surface?
38478	What objection could the Committee possibly have to a man whose name they had never heard before that moment?
38478	Where now?
38478	Where, O physicians, was the power of your remedies?

37224	Is it any longer surprising, that it is the workmen who mostly are subject to the use of spirits?
37224	Is it not more natural to take the food as nature gives it to us?
37224	Is it not wonderful?
37224	May I hope that you will favor me with your attention, while, in a few articles, I speak to you about the nutrition of the human body?
37224	Medicine?
37224	Now, it is true that man also eats the flesh, fat, and eggs of animals; but whence have the animals meat and eggs?
37224	Now, what are the qualities of coffee?
37224	Now, where does the heat of the fire go?
37224	Now, which of these two fares the better?
37224	Or can you make bones out of milk, or hair?
37224	Or is it a beverage merely to quench the thirst?
37224	Or is it a spice?
37224	Or perhaps poison?
37224	The next question might be: Can this latent heat become free again?
37224	The next questions are:"What do these elements of food perform when in the child''s body?
37224	The notion- dealer, who with his hundred dollars has earned twenty- five dollars, or the cattle- dealer, who gained but five?
37224	The question arises in the first place, Why must food be cooked?
37224	The question naturally arises now, where is the heat that the boiling water has been continually absorbing?
37224	These latter names have a more savory sound, have they not?
37224	This is the solution of the great problem, viz.,"How can drunkards live a long time on nothing but spirits, and, moreover, how can they work?"
37224	WHAT IS BEST TO BE PUT INTO SOUP?
37224	What becomes of a pot of water, if, on beginning to boil, it is not taken off the fire?
37224	What becomes of them?"
37224	What becomes of these substances after they have been eaten by the child?
37224	What influence has the same upon rain or dryness in the atmosphere?
37224	What influence with regard to heat and cold has the nearness or remoteness of the moon upon our weather?
37224	What is the cause of this?
37224	What is the cause of this?
37224	What may have been the reason for putting the principal meal in the middle of the day?
37224	What will be the effect of taking boiling water from the stove and placing it in the room somewhere?
37224	Whence came this weather; more especially, whence came the calm preceding it, and the whirlwind following?
37224	Whence did this come?
37224	Whence does this come?
37224	Whence does this come?
37224	Whence does this come?
37224	Where has the water gone?
37224	Where will the heat of the water go then?
37224	Where, then, is this heat?
37224	Who does not know that every farmer gives his cattle salt from time to time, so as to improve their strength and general health?
37224	Why are we obliged to eat?
37224	Why does he take such pains to grind, bake, boil, fry, etc., while the animal can live without all this?
37224	Why does man eat nothing raw except fruit?
37224	Why, then, does man need mixed food, that is, partly meat and partly vegetable food?
37224	With the exercise of a little thought, it will readily be seen that the question,"How much does our earth weigh?"
37224	_ It commenced to snow in the concert room!_ How did this come?
37224	he would exclaim,"do you mean to say that milk contains flesh?
37224	that from milk may be manufactured feet, hands, cheeks, eyelids, and the various other parts of the human body?"
20417	Is it to be supposed,he asks,"that there can be no fresh invention, that all the discoveries have been made?"
20417	And are not all the aristocrat apple- trees of our orchards descended from the plebeian crab- apple of the roadside?
20417	And even when man first became aware of the fact that this regular movement was somehow associated with the moon, was he much nearer an explanation?
20417	And the Sun itself, what is its composition, what is the source of its heat, how did it originate?
20417	And those other, sporadic members of our system, comets and meteors, what are they?
20417	And what are these X- rays?
20417	And what is heat?
20417	And why should it stop?
20417	And, indeed, what agency could be invoked to explain this mysteriously regular flux and reflux of the waters of the ocean?
20417	Are there other Universes?
20417	As it does so, where does its previous energy go?
20417	But how is this turned into power enough even to ring a bell?
20417	But since matter may be split up into such constituents, may it not be built up from them?
20417	But the elephant?
20417	But was not the beginning in the croaking of Amphibia?
20417	But what about the moons which attend the planets?
20417	But what makes the pigment- cells change?
20417	But why should it profit a spider to be like a bird- dropping?
20417	But why should there be changes in the constitution of the germ- cells?

20417	Does this argue fire, as we know fire on the earth?
20417	Every man asks at once:"Will science ever tap this energy?"
20417	Evidences of Evolution In all this, it may be said, the fact of evolution has been taken for granted, but what are the evidences?
20417	For although we usually rank mammals as higher than birds( being mammals ourselves, how could we do otherwise?
20417	For are these not the splendid failures that might have succeeded in starting new modes of flight?
20417	How could it be otherwise when we think of the magnitude and the eventfulness of recent advances?
20417	How do they originate?
20417	How do we know the order of their appearance and the succession of their advances?
20417	How do we know?
20417	IS THE SUN DYING?
20417	In conclusion What has led to the truly wonderful result which we admire in a creature like a dog or an otter, a horse or a hare?
20417	Is it fitted to last for ever in its present form, or does it contain within itself the seeds of dissolution?
20417	Is it running down?
20417	Is matter flowing out of the nucleus into the arms or along the arms into the nucleus?
20417	Is there Life on Mars?
20417	Is there a nucleus, then, round which the electrons revolve?
20417	Is there a process of building up at work?
20417	It was this the British sailor expressed in his answer to the question"What is a Dago?"
20417	LIGHT-- VISIBLE AND INVISIBLE If Light, then, consists of waves transmitted through the ether, what gives rise to the waves?
20417	Looking backwards over the many millions of years comprised in the Palæozoic era, what may we emphasise as the most salient features?
20417	May there not be life on some of the larger of these moons?
20417	Must it, in the course of time, in we know not how many millions of ages, be transformed into something very different from what it now is?

10060	Again, if the Gibraltar indraught is the effect of evaporation, why does it go on in winter as well as in summer?
10060	And this question subdivides itself into two:--the first, are we really contravening such conclusions?
10060	And was it not possible, in the second place, that he had not sufficiently heated his infusions and the superjacent air?
10060	And what has made this difference?
10060	Are all the grandest and most interesting problems which offer themselves to the geological student, essentially insoluble?
10060	Are modern geologists prepared to say that all life was killed off the earth 50,000, 100,000, or 200,000 years ago?
10060	Are these Postmiocene immigrants, or Praemiocene natives?
10060	Are they parasites in the zoological sense, or are they merely what Virchow has called"heterologous growths"?
10060	But I imagine I hear the question, How is all this to be tested?
10060	But are these corpuscles causes, or mere concomitants, of the disease?
10060	But for what constituents of their bodies are animals thus dependent upon plants?
10060	But has the advance of biology simply tended to break down old distinctions, without establishing new ones?
10060	But how is this remarkable propulsive machine made to perform its functions?
10060	But if this be the case, how much further back must we go to find the common stock of the monodelphous_ Mammalia_?
10060	But is there any sound foundation for the three assumptions involved here?

10060	But what becomes of the coal which is burnt in yielding this interest?
10060	But whither does all this tend?
10060	But why does a muscle contract at one time and not at another?
10060	But why in the world did not this distinguished Hegelian look at a nettle hair for himself, before venturing to speak about the matter at all?
10060	But would not the meaning of the last line be better rendered"Developed in rain- water and in the warm vapours raised by the sun"?]
10060	But, in this case it may be asked, why does not our English coal consist of stems and leaves to a much greater extent than it does?
10060	Does Nature acknowledge, in any deeper way, this unity of plan we seem to trace?
10060	Does it equally well apply to the Pliocene fauna when we compare it with that of the Miocene epoch?
10060	For what might not have happened to the organic matter of the infusions, or to the oxygen of the air, in Spallanzani''s experiments?
10060	Has the vaccine matter, by its irritative property, produced a mere blister, the fluid of which has the same irritative property?
10060	How are the Cretaceous Ichthyosauria, Plesiosauria, or Pterosauria less embryonic, or more differentiated, species than those of the Lias?
10060	How can animal life be conceived to exist under such conditions of light, temperature, pressure, and aeration as must obtain at these vast depths?
10060	How did these isolated patches of a northern population get into these deep places?
10060	How do similar reasonings apply to the other great change of life-- that which took place at the end of the Palaeozoic period?
10060	How does this apparently anomalous state of things come about?
10060	How is the existence of this long succession of different species of crocodiles to be accounted for?
10060	How, in that case, could we conceive the action of the ferment on it?
10060	However, it may be asked, is there any necessary opposition between the so- called"vital"and the strictly physico- chemical views of fermentation?
10060	If I study a living being, under what heads does the knowledge I obtain fall?
10060	Is he in the position of a scientific Tantalus-- doomed always to thirst for a knowledge which he can not obtain?
10060	Is it not probable that teachers, in pursuing such studies, will be led astray from the acquirement of more important but less attractive knowledge?
10060	Is palaeontology able to succeed where physical geology fails?
10060	Is such a universal history, then, to be regarded as unattainable?
10060	It is the question, why should teachers be encouraged to acquire a knowledge of this, or any other branch of physical science?
10060	It might be true that Needham''s experiments yielded results such as he had described, but did they bear out his arguments?
10060	No doubt it is a pretty and ingenious way of looking at the structure of any animal; but is it anything more?
10060	Now does this mean that it may have been two, or three, or four hundred million years?
10060	Now what has taken place in the course of this operation?
10060	On what amount of similarity of their faunae is the doctrine of the contemporaneity of the European and of the North American Silurians based?
10060	Or does the vaccine matter contain living particles, which have grown and multiplied where they have been planted?
10060	Or may I not rather ask, is it possible for you to discharge your functions properly without these aids?
10060	Or may it not be also considered as an organised body?
10060	Or to turn to the higher Vertebrata-- in what sense are the Liassic Chelonia inferior to those which now exist?
10060	Such being the facts with regard to the nature of yeast, and the changes which it effects in sugar, how are they to be accounted for?
10060	Such being the facts with respect to the PÃ © brine, what are the indications as to the method of preventing it?
10060	The first inquiry which arises plainly is, has it ever been denied that this period_ may_ be enough for the purposes of geology?
10060	The great new question would be,"How does all this take place?"
10060	The means of exploration being fairly adequate, what forms of life may be looked for at these vast depths?
10060	Under these circumstances, what is the temperature of the Mediterranean?
10060	Was it not possible, in the first place, he had not completely excluded the air by his corks and mastic?
10060	What books shall I read?
10060	What if_ Globigerina_ and the Coccoliths should not be the only survivors of a world passed away, which are hidden beneath three miles of salt water?
10060	What is it originates, directs, and controls the motive power?
10060	What is it, therefore, but the exclusion of germs?
10060	What is the purpose of primary intellectual education?
10060	What is the reason of the predominance of the spores and spore- cases in it?
10060	What is the use, it is said, of attempting to make physical science a branch of primary education?
10060	What is this wide- spread component of the surface of the earth?
10060	What security was there that the development of life which ought to have taken place had not been checked or prevented by these changes?
10060	When I examine it, what appears to be the most striking character it presents?
10060	Where, then, must we look for its five- toed ancestor?
10060	Who can suppose that the few fossils yet found in these regions give any sufficient representation of the Permian fauna?
10060	Why does one whole group of muscles contract when the lobster wishes to extend his tail, and another group when he desires to bend it?
10060	Why should not these proportions have been different during the Mesozoic epoch?
10060	and what is the evidence on which those fundamental propositions demand our assent?
10060	and whence did it come?
10060	the second, if we are, are those conclusions so firmly based that we may not contravene them?
10060	what are the fundamental assumptions upon which they all logically depend?
22085	How can our Nation give out of the fulness of the life that is in it, and how can a new Indian University help in the realisation of this object? 22085 I quietly said to myself, Kaloo Singh, Kaloo Singh, who sent you here?
22085	In realising this, is our sense of final mystery of things deepened or lessened? 22085 A failure? 22085 And does the plant then exert itself to make one overwhelming reply, after which response ceases altogether? 22085 And is it not shocks of adversity, and not cotton- wool protection, that evolve true manhood? 22085 And is it not shocks of adversity, and not cotton- wool protection, that evolve true manhood? 22085 And lastly, when by the blow of death, life itself is finally extinguished, will it be possible to detect the critical moment? 22085 Another striking experiment was to show how ordinary plants could be made sensitive by the mere process of amputation of the balancing half? 22085 Are there any such spontaneously beating tissues in a plant? 22085 Are these dead failures, so utterly unrelated to some great success that we may acclaim to day? 22085 Are they your countrymen? 22085 Are we of to- day to be debtors only? 22085 Are we to be a living nation, to be proud of our ancestry and to try to win renown by continuous achievements? 22085 By what favourable circumstances will this rate of transmission become enhanced, and by what will be retarded or arrested? 22085 Can anything small or circumscribed ever satisfy the mind of India? 22085 Could plants be made similarly to write their own autographs revealing their hidden story? 22085 DUTY TO OUR COUNTRY And lastly, what are our duties to our country? 22085 DUTY TO SELF As regards duty to self, can there be anything so inclusive as being true to your manhood? 22085 Do you think he suffered in vain and that his voice remained unheard? 22085 Does advance of science hold any such possibility? 22085 Does she not realise that it is helpless passivity that directly provokes aggression? 22085 Does she not realise that it is helpless passivity that directly provokes aggression?... 22085 Does this latent period undergo any variation with external conditions? 22085 For do we not find something very like it in Mediaeval Europe? 22085 For the attainment of this exalted condition, also, is it not necessary to have previous storage, with a consequent bubbling overflow? 22085 For the trust that you imposed on me could I do anything less than place before you the highest that I knew? 22085 Has her own history and the teaching of the past prepared her for some temporary and quite subordinate gain? 22085 Has not the recent happenings in China served as an object lesson? 22085 Have not the ballads of these illiterates rendered into English by our Poet touched profoundly the hearts of the very elect of the West? 22085 Have not the stories of their common life appealed to the common kinship of humanity? 22085 How are we to know what unseen changes take place within the plant? 22085 How are we to magnify this so as to make it instantly measurable? 22085 How chaotic appear the happenings in Nature? 22085 How circumscribed was their knowledge? 22085 How did these problems first dawn in the minds of some men who forecast themselves by half a century? 22085 How do we realise his sufferings? 22085 How does the plant then give its last answer? 22085 How does the plant then, give this last answer? 22085 How fared their hopes, how did their dreams become buried in oblivion? 22085 How is the hidden to be made manifest? 22085 How then are we to know what unseen changes take place within the plant? 22085 How then was it that these pulsations became spontaneous? 22085 How then was it that these pulsations became spontaneous? 22085 How were the invisible, internal changes to be made externally visible? 22085 If it be excited or depressed by some special circumstance, how are we, on the outside, to be made aware of this? 22085 If so, again, at what rate does the nervous impulse travel the plant? 22085 If so, is there anything analogous to the nerve of the animal? 22085 Illiterate in what sense? 22085 Is it not rather that science evokes in us a deeper sense of awe? 22085 Is it possible in any way to have these revealed to us? 22085 Is it possible that in plants also any parallel phenomena might be observed? 22085 Is it possible to counteract the effect of one by another? 22085 Is it possible to make the plant itself record this rate and its variations? 22085 Is it possible to make the plant itself write down this excessively minute time- interval? 22085 Is it possible to make the plants write down their own autographs and thus reveal their history? 22085 Is it to be under hopeless compulsion or of voluntary acceptance? 22085 Is the burden to fall on the weak or the strong? 22085 Is the power with which the people endow their king identical with the power of wealth with which we enrich him by paying him his Royal dues? 22085 Is there any resemblance between the nervous impulse in plants and animals? 22085 It is true that here we suffer from many difficulties, but how does it help us, to envy the good fortune of others? 22085 Like the great human system plants were subject to periodic conscianimal[_ sic._, consciousness?] 22085 May it not be said that this story has a pathos of its own beyond any that we may have conceived? 22085 May it not be said that this their story has a pathos of its own, beyond any that the poets have conceived? 22085 Next, does the effect of the blow given outside reach the interior of the plant? 22085 Now, what is to be the future of our nation? 22085 Of these which is more real, the material body or the image which is independent of it? 22085 Perhaps some of us can tell from our own experience whether similar differences obtain amongst human kind or not? 22085 SENSITIVE OR INSENSITIVE? 22085 Supposing that the plant does not give answers to external shock, what time elapses between the shock and the reply? 22085 THE TWO IDEALS What is it that India is to win and maintain? 22085 The mind can not grasp the meaning of this stupendous magnification; how then could we translate it in terms which may be understood? 22085 Then how are we to make this invisible visible? 22085 They may say that you are but a small handful, what of the vast illiterate millions? 22085 They may well be proud of a consecrated life-- consecrated to what? 22085 Was her mind paralysed by weak superstitious fears? 22085 Were they afraid that the march of knowledge was dangerous to true faith? 22085 What are the variations in this infinitesimal growth under external shock? 22085 What coercion do they exercise upon it? 22085 What happens, then, to the incident energy? 22085 What is it that has bridged over the distance and blotted out all differences? 22085 What is that subtle bond by which all distances are bridged over, and by which an individual life becomes merged in larger life? 22085 What is the difference between the living and the dead? 22085 What is the machinery which sets a going a world movement for the redress of wrong? 22085 What is the meaning of spontaneity? 22085 What subtle impress did they leave behind? 22085 What subtle impress do they leave behind? 22085 What was it that stood in her way? 22085 What would she do with it, if it did not raise her above death? 22085 Where lies the secret of that potency which makes certain efforts apparently doomed to failure, rise renewed from beneath the smouldering ashes? 22085 Which is more potent, Matter or Spirit? 22085 Which of these is undecaying, and which of these is beyond the reach of death? 22085 Who cares? 22085 Why does the water- lily''Kumud or Nymphaea''keep awake all night long and close her petals during the day? 22085 in which the human mind is some day to realise the uniform march of sequence, order and law? 22085 what changes are induced by the action of drugs or poisons? 22085 will the action of poison change with the dose? 1315 : could the sentence beginning thus be written in better form?] 1315 ?, p. 1315 Again, what simpler, or more absolutely practical, than the attempt to keep the axle of a wheel from heating when the wheel turns round very fast? 1315 And by way of a beginning, let us ask ourselves-- What is education? 1315 And how has it fared withPhysick"and Anatomy?
1315	And now, what is the ultimate fate, and what the origin, of the matter of life?

1315	But the plague?
1315	But what more have we to guide us in nine- tenths of the most important affairs of daily life than hypotheses, and often very ill- based ones?
1315	Can a paragraph be analyzed in the same manner as the whole composition?
1315	Can any of the paragraphs be combined to advantage?

1315	Does this quotation from Pater''s essay on Style describe Huxley''s sentences?
1315	Exactly what do you mean by style?

1315	Goethe has condensed a survey of all powers of mankind into the well- known epigram:--[95]"Warum treibt sich das Volk so und schreit?
1315	Has the character of the audience any influence upon the structure of the essays?

1315	If so, how does he accomplish this?
1315	In the introduction, how does the author approach his material?
1315	Is any such unity predicable of their forms?
1315	Is it both; or is it neither?
1315	Is it built up of ordinary matter, and again resolved into ordinary matter when its work is done?
1315	Is it good and sufficient, or is it insufficient and bad?
1315	Is the introduction a digression?

1315	Is the thought of the whole essay stated?
1315	Is there any reason for the difference between the form of the two writers?
1315	Is this a plant; or is it an animal?
1315	Let us take these points separately; and first, what great ideas has natural knowledge introduced into men''s minds?
1315	Or, is the matter of life composed of ordinary matter, differing from it only in the manner in which its atoms are aggregated?
1315	Surely, the principles involved in them are now admitted among the fixed beliefs of all thinking men?
1315	Surely, there is nothing in these explanations which is not fully borne out by the facts?
1315	The Bishop concluded his speech by turning to Huxley and asking,"Was it through his grandfather or grandmother that he claimed descent from a monkey?"
1315	The following is a translation of the passage: Why do the people push each other and shout?
1315	The great issue, about which hangs true sublimity, and the terror of overhanging fate, is, what are you going to do with all these things?
1315	The old man merely remarked,"You''re Huxley, are n''t you?
1315	Then you may say,"If that is so, if the education was scientific, why can not you be satisfied with it?"
1315	To whom does Huxley address the essay?
1315	Under these circumstances it may well be asked, how is one mass of non- nucleated protoplasm to be distinguished from another?
1315	What are those inductions and deductions, and how have you got at this hypothesis?
1315	What better philosophical status has"vitality"than"aquosity"?
1315	What is this wide- spread component of the surface of the earth?

1315	Which essay seems to you to be most successful in structure?
1315	Why should we be worse off under one regime than under the other?
1315	Your friend says to you,"But how do you know that?"
1315	[ 46] But what has grown out of this search for natural knowledge of so merely useful a character?
1315	and whence did it come?
1315	why call one"plant"and the other"animal"?
15807	Are we, then, slaves of ignorant circumstance? 15807 And when for many days and nights neither sun nor stars appear, how can he tell where he is, which way he drives, where the land lies? 15807 Are there proofs that God''s forces are cooperating with ours? 15807 Beyond these are there vibrations for thought- transference? 15807 But does it work down and up? 15807 But how can these mountains be gotten to the distant cities by the sea? 15807 But how do we get the cars back? 15807 But how does it build itself? 15807 But how is material conveyed from rootlet to veinlet of leaf hundreds of feet away? 15807 But how shall we find them? 15807 But outside of our plans and work for ourselves what cooperation may we expect in our plans and work for others? 15807 But what does the sea do with the harder parts of the cliff? 15807 But what is it doing? 15807 But what is the thousand million times more light than ever struck the earth doing in space? 15807 But what is there in space? 15807 But when we have done our best what may we expect? 15807 But who can lift up the end of the river? 15807 Can it be gotten to take Pittsburgh coal to New Orleans? 15807 Can we so enormously enhance the value of a bushel of charcoal by arrangement and compression? 15807 Did any one ever know of gravitation raising anything? 15807 Do the stars, that are so far away and seem so small, send us any help? 15807 Does he want his burdens carried? 15807 Does he want swiftness? 15807 Does it not take us one step toward an apprehension of the revealed condition of spirit? 15807 Does not this seem like a spiritual force? 15807 Does one fear the change from gross to fine, from force of freezing to the winged energy of steam, from solid zinc to lightning? 15807 Does one fear to leave bodily appetites and passions for spiritual aptitudes fitted to finer surroundings? 15807 Faith in what power can say to these mountains,Be thou removed far hence, and cast into the sea?"
15807	First, it is a power of selection-- might we not say discrimination?
15807	Has he?
15807	Has man a right to expect a special lending of the infinite power to help out his human endeavors?
15807	How can it be secured?
15807	How can man combat part of the continent on the move, driven by the ceaseless powers of the air?
15807	How can they get it down to the cities where it is needed?
15807	How can we separate them, so that the salt shall be pure for our tables?
15807	How could it be otherwise?
15807	How could they be lifted, handled, and put in place over the water on slender piers?
15807	How could they get the water out?
15807	How did they ever get together?
15807	How do the particles behave as they snuggle up closer to each other?
15807	How do they get the salt and water apart?
15807	How is it to be done?
15807	How much is the pull?
15807	How shall it be done?
15807	How shall they get it to the top of the ground?
15807	How shall we detect these steady currents when wind and waves are in tumultuous confusion?
15807	How shall we get it out?
15807	How shall we secure the cooperative power?
15807	How strong is this gas?
15807	How was it done?
15807	How was it done?
15807	How were they made?
15807	How will this divine aid manifest itself?
15807	Husbands and fathers are ever crying: Immortal?
15807	If this is so, in what fields, under what conditions, to what extent, and in accordance with what laws may we expect aid?
15807	In that sudden, strange transition, By what new and finer sense Shall we grasp the mighty vision, And receive the influence?
15807	Is he steering by the North Star?
15807	Is it not a part of the"all things"over which man was made to have dominion?
15807	Is not our whole question settled?
15807	It is pleasant sliding down hill on a rail, but who pulls the sled back?
15807	Meanwhile, what of the weather?
15807	My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God?"
15807	Nay, more, what can be expected of men who have in these temptations been strengthened out of God?
15807	Nay, rather, what may not be expected of such men?
15807	Now does this intelligent and powerful personality know our plans and lend his powers to the accomplishment of our purposes?
15807	Now, how has such an eminence of character been attained?
15807	Power enough, but how shall we belt on?
15807	Since these things are so, what are the conditions under which we may work the works of God by his power?
15807	So fifty yards of woolen cloth just out of the dye vat-- who could wring it?
15807	So our question is better thus: Does this intelligent, powerful personality accept and use our energy in the accomplishment of his plans?
15807	The porter''s rap came unexpectedly soon, and in response to the question,"What is the weather?"
15807	To what extent may we expect divine aid?
15807	To what extent, then, may we expect God will lend his forces to work out our plans?
15807	WHAT ARE THE CAUSES?
15807	Was the storm over?
15807	We shall soon see that it is easy to slide millions of tons of coal down hill, but how could we slide freight up from New York to Albany?
15807	What becomes of it?
15807	What becomes of this comminuted rock, cleft by wedges of water, scoured over by hundreds of tons of sharp sand?
15807	What can be expected of men who have been tried in the furnace of temptation till they are pure gold?
15807	What change has come to iron when it has been made red or white hot?
15807	What could be expected of the men of''76 when the air was electric with patriotism?
15807	What facts of its conditions and powers can be known?
15807	What feet have we for undiscovered continents, what wings for wider and finer airs, what eyes for diviner light?
15807	What force is sufficient for moving such great mountains so far?
15807	What fore- gleams have we of the future life?
15807	What is being done worthy of the copartnership?
15807	What is light doing in space?
15807	What is the highest force?
15807	What is the power that can throw a stream of water two by six feet over the tops of the highest skyscrapers of Chicago?
15807	What is there after that?
15807	What were a wooden body worth?
15807	What will not the more facile ether do?
15807	Where is your heaven anyhow?"
15807	Where?
15807	Who can direct them?
15807	Who could work the handle?
15807	Who could work the other end of the pump handle?
15807	Who doubts of such as she?
15807	Who has not received a letter and knew before opening it that it had violets within?
15807	Who knoweth?
15807	Who knows how frequently they come?
15807	Why hesitate for a third mode of life?
15807	Why is there such a difference in value?
15807	Why not use the moon for more than a lantern?
15807	Will God indeed dwell upon the earth?
15807	Will God indeed work with man on the earth?
15807	Would it be any less glorious if there were no Popocatepetl?
15807	You want to ascend these mountains?
15807	[ 2] What must the distance be in steam?
15807	what could he do but see the poor wheat die of thirst and his poor wife and children die of hunger?
15807	what the greater distance in the more extreme rarefactions?

16474	I rejoice to think now of the( then) Bishop''s cordial hail the first time we met after our little skirmish,"Well, is it to be peace or war?"
16474	If God not walk in the Garden of Eden, how we be assured that he spoke from Sinai?
16474	If it is not historically true that such and such things happened in Palestine eighteen centuries ago, what becomes of Christianity?
16474	If the latter is to be accepted, or rejected, by private judgment, why not the former?
16474	If the story of the Fall is not the true record or an historical occurrence, what becomes of Pauline theology?
16474	If, he says, there are texts which seem to show that Jesus contemplated the evangelisation of the heathen:... Did not the Apostles hear our Lord?
16474	Is any such unity predicable of their forms?
16474	Is he the kindly, peaceful Christ depicted in the Catacombs?
16474	Is it both; or is it neither?
16474	Is it built up of ordinary matter, and again resolved into ordinary matter when its work is done?
16474	Is it not certain that the Apostles did not gather this truth from His teaching?
16474	Is it that contained in the Nicene and the Athanasian Creeds?
16474	Is this a plant; or is it an animal?
16474	Melanchthon, Ulrich von Hutten, Beza, were they not all humanists?
16474	Much astonished at this remark from a person was supposed not to have seen the relics, Eginhard asked him how he knew that?
16474	Now what is a Christian?
16474	On what grounds can a reasonable man be asked to believe any more?
16474	Or can he be rightly represented by the bleeding ascetic, broken down by physical pain, of too many medià ¦ val pictures?
16474	Or, is the matter of life composed of ordinary matter, differing from it only in the manner in which its atoms are aggregated?
16474	So, if I am asked to call myself an"infidel,"I reply: To what doctrine do you ask me to be faithful?
16474	To this the priest,"Whence art thou, then, if these are not thy parents?"
16474	Under these circumstances it may well be asked, how is one mass of non- nucleated protoplasm to be distinguished from another?
16474	Was Augustine heretical when he denied the actual historical truth of the record of the Creation?
16474	Was not the arch- humanist, Erasmus, fautor- in- chief of the Reformation, until he got frightened and basely deserted it?
16474	Was not the name of"Christian"first used to denote the converts to the doctrine promulgated by Paul and Barnabas at Antioch?
16474	Was not their chief,"James, the brother of the Lord,"reverenced alike by Sadducee, Pharisee, and Nazarene?
16474	Were Gentile converts bound to obey the Law or not?
16474	What better philosophical status has"vitality"than"aquosity"?
16474	What do we find when the accounts of the events in question, contained in the three Synoptic gospels, are compared together?
16474	What has become of the bones of all these animals?
16474	What more intrinsic claim has the story of the Exodus than of the Deluge, to belief?
16474	What we desire to know is, is it a fact that evolution took place?
16474	What, truly, can seem to be more obviously different from one another, in faculty, in form, and in substance, than the various kinds of living beings?
16474	Who is to gainsay our ecclesiastical authority here?
16474	Who shall or can forbid him?
16474	Why forget the angel who wrestled with Jacob, and, as the account suggests, somewhat over- stepped the bound of fair play, at the end of the struggle?
16474	Why trouble ourselves about matters of which, however important they may be, we do know nothing, and can know nothing?
16474	[ 26] Must we suppose, therefore, that the Apostle to the Gentiles has stated that which is false?
16474	_ Does it contain any experimental reasoning concerning matter of fact and existence?_ No.
16474	and what was_ their_ impression from what they heard?
16474	or was he ready to accept anything that fitted in with his preconceived ideas?
16474	why call one"plant"and the other"animal"?
5694	... What more shall I say?
5694	And even all said, what purpose can be served by the gratuitous hypothesis of contact- action or communicated motion?
5694	And how comes it that spirits and fuliginous vapours can pass hither and thither without admixture or confusion?
5694	And how should it be otherwise?
5694	And how should the arteries of the foetus draw air into their cavities through the abdomen of the mother and the body of the womb?
5694	And how should the semiluftars hinder the regress of spirits from the aorta upon each supervening diastole of the heart?
5694	And so also of the blood, wherefore does it precede all the rest?
5694	And so of all the other kinds of pulse, what may be the cause and indication of each?
5694	And then, wherefore is there neither swelling nor repletion of the veins, nor any sign or symptom of attraction or afflux, above the ligature?
5694	At the very beginning of these researches, for they reveal an entirely new field, what must be insistently demanded?
5694	Besides, how can their diastole draw spirits from the heart to warm the body and its parts, and means of cooling them from without?
5694	But how can parts attract in which the heat and life are almost extinct?
5694	But immediately afterwards M. Traube adds:"Have we here a confirmation of Pasteur''s theory?
5694	But is not the thing rather arranged as it is by the consummate providence of nature?
5694	But what is the nature of these vibrios?
5694	But what was this disease?
5694	But why should it be slower?
5694	But, if oxygen destroys the vibrios, how can septicemia exist, since atmospheric air is present everywhere?
5694	Can this organized being live without air?
5694	Does the blood accumulate below the ligature coming through the veins, or through the arteries, or passing by certain hidden porosities?
5694	For how can two bodies mutually connected, which are simultaneously distended, attract or draw anything from one another?
5694	How can blood, exposed to air, become septic through the dust the air contains?
5694	How can such facts be brought in accord with the germ theory?
5694	If the mitral cuspidate valves do not prevent the egress of fuliginous vapours to the lungs, how should they oppose the escape of air?
5694	In the same way, in considering the pulse, why should one kind of pulse indicate death, another recovery?
5694	In what manner were these dogmas at length exploded?
5694	Is PURE PUS, though contained in a smallpox pustule, ever capable of producing the smallpox perfectly?
5694	Is the ferment, in every fermentation properly so called, an organized being?
5694	Is this last fact to be explained by the greater quantity of yeast formed in B?
5694	May not these images be like the shades of the unborn in Virgil''s Elysium-- the archetypes of men not yet called into existence?''
5694	May we not be looking into the womb of Nature, and not her grave?
5694	Must we, then, believe that such vibrios are absolutely different from those of butyric fermentations?
5694	Nay, has not the blood itself or spirit an obscure palpitation inherent in it, which it has even appeared to me to retain after death?
5694	Need we add that this assertion is based on no substantial foundation?
5694	On the other hand, in what way ought this crushing to affect the hypothesis of hemi- organism?
5694	Or does this, which occurred in my own case, happen from the same cause?
5694	Or wherefore is there a pulse in the pulmonary artery?
5694	Seeing, therefore, that the moderately tight ligature renders the veins turgid and distended, and the whole hand full of blood, I ask, whence is this?
5694	Shall we not be able to account for this on a rational principle?]
5694	The question now arose, was this yeast, which had developed wholly as an ordinary fungus, still capable of manifesting the character of a ferment?
5694	There may be some among those whom I address who are disposed to ask the question, What course are we to follow in relation to this matter?
5694	Was I justified in calling this communication"ON THE EXTENSION OF THE GERM THEORY TO THE ETIOLOGY OF CERTAIN COMMON DISEASES?"
5694	What but a difference in the organization of glandular bodies constitutes the difference in the qualities of the fluids secreted?
5694	What then do we see, in the results that I have just brought out?
5694	What were these results?
5694	Where can these corpuscles originate?
5694	Why could not this salt equally well support the life of the vibrios?
5694	Why do we always find this vessel full of sluggish blood, never of air, whilst in the lungs we find abundance of air remaining?
5694	Why does an artery differ so much from a vein in the thickness and strength of its coats?
5694	Why does not the pulmonary vein pulsate, seeing that it is numbered among the arteries?
5694	Why, for instance, has Dr. Brefeld omitted the facts bearing on the life of the vibrios of butyric fermentation?
5694	[ Footnote: In what way are we to account for so great a difference between the two fermentations that we have just described?
5694	[ Footnote: What effect would a similar treatment produce in inoculation for the smallpox?]
5694	and why was nature reduced to the necessity of adding another ventricle for the sole purpose of nourishing the lungs?
5694	closed?
5694	how should the mitral valves prevent the regurgitation of air and not of blood?
5694	or being simultaneously contracted, receive anything from each other?
18217	''And do you see something like wool or hair on it?''
18217	''And straw, and wood, and a kind of grass''----''Now, are you joking, mother?''
18217	''And then what should we do?''
18217	''And what about the handle?''
18217	''And what do they do with the grass?''
18217	''Are you tired of your drawing and painting?''
18217	''Before you were born, mother?''
18217	''But how do they get it on here?''
18217	''But mice live indoors, do they not, and eat cheese, and run about in the walls, and make holes?''
18217	''But the slate itself,''the mother went on,''where did that come from?
18217	''But what is it wanted here for, Joe?''
18217	''But, I mean, it must feel, or why should it turn and turn to get the light and warmth?''
18217	''Chalk?''
18217	''Did he never catch one?''
18217	''Did that big plant come out of one little pea?''
18217	''Do n''t they squeak?''
18217	''Do n''t you see a tiny dot in each dent?
18217	''Do n''t you think,''said Harry,''that a bit of coal would be a good thing for our mineral box?''
18217	''Do they ever live out of doors?''
18217	''Do they know you, Mary?''
18217	''Do you mean Harry and me?''
18217	''Do you mean, How do they begin to grow?
18217	''Do you remember, Harry, how cold our hands were in winter when we did sums?
18217	''Do you see they swallow it all at once?''
18217	''Do you think, Harry,''she asked,''that he would save us if we were buried in the snow?''
18217	''Does it grow on a tree?''
18217	''Does it?
18217	''Five?
18217	''Has he a short tail or long tail?''
18217	''He goes early, then, like the birds?''
18217	''Here, pussy, would you like some milk?''
18217	''How do they let the cage down?
18217	''How do you get down?''
18217	''How do you know all this?''
18217	''How do you know it is poor?''
18217	''How does he hold on, mother?
18217	''How old?''
18217	''How?''
18217	''I like that sound of tearing off the grass, do n''t you?''
18217	''If I were to dig for it, should I find any, Jim?''
18217	''In the dark, mother?
18217	''In the fields?''
18217	''In this garden?''
18217	''Is this a riddle?''
18217	''Is this true?''
18217	''Lazy sheep, pray tell me why In the pleasant fields you lie, Eating grass and daisies white, From the morning till the night?
18217	''May I look at that knife near you, auntie?
18217	''May I touch your tongue, then, with one of my fingers?''
18217	''Mother, may we help Jim to get it in?
18217	''Nay, my little fellow, nay, Do not serve me so, I pray: Do n''t you see the wool that grows On my back to make you clothes?
18217	''Nuts?
18217	''Oh, do you mean that the ivy eats and drinks?''
18217	''Oh, then, they did grow?
18217	''Oh, uncle,''said Harry,''do you think I could come here and help to make needles?''
18217	''Only sides, then?''
18217	''Or a bit of slate?''
18217	''Or a grain of wheat?''
18217	''Suppose we make a box to keep them in?''
18217	''That slate?
18217	''Then we can look at their houses?''
18217	''Then you do n''t buy chalk at a shop?''
18217	''They are not like trees, are they?''
18217	''They look like cups, do n''t they?''
18217	''Was it an animal?''
18217	''Well, would you say it is like wood, or like stone, or is it metal like the poker?
18217	''Were live things ever in them?''
18217	''What are all these pretty marks on the leaves, mother, lines crossing about all ways?''
18217	''What are moulds?''
18217	''What are those sheep eating over there, at the far end of the field?
18217	''What can he do?''
18217	''What can mother mean?''
18217	''What comes next?''
18217	''What did she do with it?''
18217	''What did you mean, mother,''Harry asked,''about water in turnips?''
18217	''What food is there in the ground?
18217	''What happens, mother, when they are in the earth?''
18217	''What has it to do with cabbage?''
18217	''What have I cut the pudding with?''
18217	''What have you in your pockets, father?''
18217	''What is coffee, mother dear?
18217	''What is it, Harry?''
18217	''What is sap?''
18217	''What is the good of them?''
18217	''What is the oldest thing in this room?''
18217	''What is the paste made of?''
18217	''What is your mouth useful for?''
18217	''What sort of things?''
18217	''What was it like?''
18217	''What would mother say to us if we ate without chewing?''
18217	''Where does coal come from, Jim?''
18217	''Where?''
18217	''Which do you think is the next in weight?''
18217	''Why is it taken to the paper- mill?''
18217	''Why is this called mustard, mother?''
18217	''Would you like to take hold of this one?''
18217	''Would you put in a buttercup?''
18217	A railway- man came with a heavy box on a truck, and when the box was opened, what do you think there was inside?
18217	All the leaves look rather like hands, do n''t they?
18217	Am I, mother?''
18217	And do you see lines coming away from the middle?''
18217	And what were the boys doing?
18217	Are you going?
18217	Can you think of another flower that is something like it?''
18217	Did it ever grow?''
18217	Did the man make it?''
18217	Do you dig for it?''
18217	Do you know that a sparrow kills four thousand grubs in one day when her babies are in the nest?
18217	Do you know that he never eats?
18217	Do you know that the wild rose is the mother of all these?
18217	Does it grow?''
18217	Does she know no better?''
18217	Everything can something do; Oh what kind of use are you?''
18217	Have you ever been down?''
18217	Have you ever seen one, mother?''
18217	Have you found a ball in yours?''
18217	How were they hardened?
18217	How would you like to have two or three of these peas to plant?
18217	Is it a kind of wood, do you think?
18217	Is it, mother?''
18217	Little thing, in what dark den, Lie you all the winter sleeping, Till warm weather comes again?
18217	Now, what comes next?''
18217	Now, what do you say to this?''
18217	Now, what do you think it could be, mother?''
18217	Shall I tell you as much as I know?''
18217	She asked:''Have you looked at pussy''s eyes?''
18217	There is an engine at the top of the shaft''----''What is the shaft?''
18217	They all look as if they liked it, do n''t they?''
18217	They are not round after all, do you see?
18217	They went on putting the paper into the sack for a long time, and then Harry asked:''How was paper made before there was old paper to make it of?''
18217	They were alive once?''
18217	We could not go up a hill like that, could we?''
18217	What are you doing?''
18217	What can it be?''
18217	What could this be?
18217	What do you call that part?''
18217	What do you know about chalk?''
18217	What food do the roots find?''
18217	What is it that the brooklets say, Rippling onward day by day?
18217	What sort of wood are you making the doll''s house of?''
18217	What was going on?
18217	When they are taken out, what do you think they are?
18217	Where is your chalk?''
18217	Which shall we pick for her?''
18217	Why are there so many holes in the leaves?''
18217	Why does he shoot them?''
18217	Why is he going into a hole?''
18217	Will you read to us, mother?''
18217	You do n''t like to wet your nice fur, do you?''
18217	You know what a horse- tail is?''
18217	You know what chalk is, do you?''
18217	[ Illustration:''What have you in your pockets, father?'']
18217	marbles?''
18217	stones?
7150	What is the wind?
7150	What is this water, and where does it run?
7150	What makes this waves in the sea?
7150	Where does this animal live, and what is the use of that plant?
7150	***** If primary and secondary education are in this unsatisfactory state, what is to be said to the universities?
7150	A hard- headed friend of mine, who was present, put the not unnatural question,"Then why do n''t you say so in your pulpits?"
7150	And by way of a beginning, let us ask ourselves-- What is education?
7150	And if he honestly believes that, of what avail is it to quote the commandment against stealing, when he proposes to make the capitalist disgorge?
7150	And the result?
7150	And this leads me to ask, Why should scientific teaching be limited to week- days?
7150	And to the learned, the unlearned man said then, as he does now,"What is the use of all your learning, unless you can tell me what I want to know?
7150	And what is that but saying that we too, all of us, as individuals, the more thoroughly we carry it out, shall make the more progress?"
7150	And whether, of these English books, more than one in ten is the work of a fellow of a college, or a professor of an English university?
7150	And would not Terence stop his ears and run out if he could be present at an English performance of his own plays?
7150	And, as involved in, and underlying all these questions, how ought they to be educated?
7150	Are we then to fall back on the simple reading of the letter of the Bible?
7150	But how does this classification differ from that of the scientific Zoologist?
7150	But is an education which ignores them all a liberal education?
7150	But is the relative imperfection which exists only such as is necessary, or is it made worse by our practical arrangements?
7150	But what then?
7150	But why should this seven times heated fiery furnace of theological zeal be so desirous to shed its genial warmth over the London School Board?
7150	Can it be that these zealous sectaries mean to evade the solemn pledge given in the Act?
7150	Do they afford us the smallest ground for refusing to educate women as well as men-- to give women the same civil and political rights as men?
7150	For what does the middle- class school put in the place of all these things which are left out?
7150	Given the laboratories, how are the investigators to be maintained?
7150	Has any one tried to found such an education?
7150	How can a lover of literary excellence fail to rejoice in the ancient masterpieces?
7150	How did Harvey determine the nature of the circulation, except by experiment?
7150	How did Sir Charles Bell determine the functions of the roots of the spinal nerves, save by experiment?
7150	How do we know the use of a nerve at all, except by experiment?
7150	How does the meaning of the scientific class- name of"Mammalia"differ from the unscientific of"Beasts"?
7150	How is that all too brief period spent at present?
7150	How long would he be left uneducated?
7150	How much is so applied?
7150	How then has this notion of the inexactness of Biological science come about?
7150	How, and when, are we justified in making our next step-- a_ deduction_ from it?
7150	I reply, why should the thing which has been called education do either the one or the other?
7150	I said to myself,"Never mind; what''s the next thing to be done?"
7150	If there are Doctors of Music, why should there be no Masters of painting, of Sculpture, of Architecture?
7150	In the formulary of the Church of England, might not thirty- eight out of the thirty- nine be very well spared?
7150	Indeed, if a little knowledge is dangerous, where is the man who has so much as to be out of danger?
7150	Is it good and sufficient, or is it insufficient and bad?
7150	Is it then the_ results_ of Biological science which are"inexact"?
7150	Is that which may be so applied given to help the poor, who can not pay for education, or does it virtually subsidise the comparatively rich, who can?
7150	Is the spirit of change, which is working thus vigorously in the South, likely to affect the Northern Universities, and if so, to what extent?
7150	Is this from any lack of power in the English as compared with the German mind?
7150	Kant has said that the ultimate object of all knowledge is to give replies to these three questions: What can I do?
7150	Now that we have arrived at the origin of this word"Biology,"the next point to consider is: What ground does it cover?
7150	Now what does this mean?
7150	One is constantly asked, When should this scientific education be commenced?
7150	Physiology not an experimental science?
7150	Quashie''s plaintive inquiry,"Am I not a man and a brother?"
7150	Said I not rightly that we are a wonderful people?
7150	Suppose that all these things are desirable, what is the best way of obtaining them?
7150	The Quaker listened, and at the close said,"Well, but, friend Southey, when dost thee think?"
7150	The child asks,"What is the moon, and why does it shine?"
7150	The great issue, about which hangs a true sublimity, and the terror of overhanging fate, is what are you going to do with all these things?
7150	The next question to which I have to address myself is, What sciences ought to be thus taught?
7150	Then I ask,"What are the circumstances of the case, and how was the teaching carried out?"
7150	Then you may say,"If that is so, if the education was scientific, why can not you be satisfied with it?"
7150	To this my reply is, Why should I, when that statement was made seven years ago?
7150	Was any human being wiser for learning that magic formula?
7150	Was he not more foolish, inasmuch as he was deluded into taking words for knowledge?
7150	Well, what have you to master in those four years upon my supposition?
7150	What career is open to those who have been thus encouraged to leave bread- winning pursuits?
7150	What have we to do in every- day life?
7150	What is his handicraft?
7150	What is the cause of this wonderful difference between the dead particle and the living particle of matter appearing in other respects identical?
7150	What is the object of medical education?
7150	What is the range and position of Physiological Science as a branch of knowledge, and what is its value as a means of mental discipline?
7150	What is to be the end to which these are to be the means?
7150	What may I hope for?
7150	What ought I to do?
7150	What ought they to be allowed, or not allowed, to do, be, and suffer?
7150	What science can present greater attractions than philology?
7150	What social and political rights have women?
7150	What was the nature of this air?
7150	What, think you, would Cicero, or Horace, say to the production of the best sixth form going?
7150	When does the unhappy pupil teacher, or over- drilled student of a training college, find any time to think?
7150	Where is such an education as this to be had?
7150	Where is there any approximation to it?
7150	Who hath it?
7150	Why not make him belong to the Iron and Steel Institute, and learn something about cutlery, because he uses knives?
7150	Why should he not?
7150	Why should we be worse off under one_ régime_ than under the other?
7150	Why, there is not a function of a single organ in the body which has not been determined wholly and solely by experiment?
7150	Will you give a man with this much information a vote?
7150	Would such a catastrophe destroy the parallel?
7150	You may ask, by what authority do I venture, being a person not concerned in the practice of medicine, to meddle with that subject?
7150	that difference to which we give the name of Life?
6414	*([ Footnote]* Need it be said that this is Tennyson''s English for Homer''s Greek?) 6414 Again, what simpler, or more absolutely practical, than the attempt to keep the axle of a wheel from heating when the wheel turns round very fast? 6414 And how has it fared withPhysick"and Anatomy?
6414	And the second is: How has it been perpetuated?
6414	And what has made this difference?
6414	And, after all, is it quite so certain that a genetic relation may not underlie the classification of minerals?
6414	Are all the grandest and most interesting problems which offer themselves to the geological student essentially insoluble?
6414	Are natural causes competent to play the part of selection in perpetuating varieties?
6414	Are these truths ultimate and irresolvable facts, or are their complexities and perplexities the mere expressions of a higher law?
6414	But I imagine I hear the question, How is all this to be tested?
6414	But can we go no further than that?
6414	But has this been done?
6414	But how is this remarkable propulsive machine made to perform its functions?
6414	But in the next place comes a much more difficult inquiry:--Are the causes indicated competent to give rise to the phenomena of organic nature?
6414	But is it not possible to apply a test whereby a true species may be known from a mere variety?
6414	But is the analogy a real one?
6414	But is the like true of the physiological characteristics of animals?
6414	But is this really so?
6414	But now what manner of creatures are these which form these hard skeletons?
6414	But suppose we prefer to admit our ignorance rather than adopt a hypothesis at variance with all the teachings of Nature?
6414	But the plague?
6414	But the question now is:--Does selection take place in nature?
6414	But to how much has man really access?
6414	But what does this attempt to construct a universal history of the globe imply?
6414	But what has grown out of this search for natural knowledge of so merely useful a character?
6414	But what more have we to guide us in nine- tenths of the most important affairs of daily life than hypotheses, and often very ill- based ones?
6414	But what proportion is there between the structural alteration and the functional result?
6414	But where does the grass, or the oat, or any other plant, obtain this nourishing food- producing material?
6414	But whither does all this tend?
6414	But why does a muscle contract at one time and not at another?
6414	Can either be shown to fill up or diminish, to any appreciable extent, the structural interval which exists between Man and the man- like apes?
6414	Can we find any approximation to this in the different races known to be produced by selective breeding from a common stock?
6414	Could not a sensible child confute by obvious arguments, the shallow rhetoricians who would force this conclusion upon us?
6414	Did M. Flourens ever visit one of the prettiest watering- places of"la belle France,"the Baie d''Arcachon?
6414	Did either of these original specimens, on which Von Wurmb''s descriptions are based, ever reach Europe?
6414	Do the physiological differences of varieties amount in degree to those observed between forms which naturalists call distinct species?
6414	Does Nature acknowledge, in any deeper way, this unity of plan we seem to trace?
6414	For what are the phenomena of Agamogenesis, stated generally?
6414	Has not his Paley told him that that seemingly useless organ, the spleen, is beautifully adjusted as so much packing between the other organs?
6414	How are the Cretaceous Ichthyosauria, Plesiosauria, or Pterosauria less embryonic, or more differentiated, species than those of the Lias?
6414	How could that operation of selection, which is his essential function, be carried out by mere natural agencies?
6414	How do you know that the laws of Nature are not suspended during the night?
6414	How do you know that the man who really made the marks took the spoons?
6414	How then is the production of new species to be rendered intelligible by the analogy of Agamogenesis?
6414	How, then, is mud formed?
6414	If you find any record of changes taking place at''b'', did they occur before any events which took place while''a''was being deposited?
6414	In the first place, do these supposed causes of the phenomena exist in nature?
6414	In the first place, what is a species?
6414	Is he in the position of a scientific Tantalus-- doomed always to thirst for a knowledge which he can not obtain?
6414	Is he something apart?
6414	Is it any more than a grandiloquent way of announcing the fact, that we really know nothing about the matter?
6414	Is it not probable that teachers, in pursuing such studies, will be led astray from the acquirement of more important but less attractive knowledge?
6414	Is it satisfactorily proved, in fact, that species may be originated by selection?
6414	Is mother- love vile because a hen shows it, or fidelity base because dogs possess it?
6414	Is paleontology able to succeed where physical geology fails?
6414	Is such a universal history, then, to be regarded as unattainable?
6414	Is there among the plants the same primitive form of organization, and is that identical with that of the animal kingdom?
6414	Is there any test of a physiological species?
6414	Is there no criterion of species?
6414	Is this sound reasoning?
6414	It is the question, why should training masters be encouraged to acquire a knowledge of this, or any other branch of physical science?
6414	Let us take these points separately; and, first, what great ideas has natural knowledge introduced into men''s minds?
6414	No doubt it is a pretty and ingenious way of looking at the structure of any animal; but is it anything more?
6414	Now, how many of those are absolutely extinct?
6414	Now, the next problem that lies before us-- and it is an extremely important one-- is this: Does this selective breeding occur in nature?
6414	Now, what is the effect of this oscillation?
6414	Now, what is the result of all this?
6414	O solidite de l''esprit Francais, que devenez- vous?"
6414	O solidite de l''esprit Francais, que devenez- vous?"
6414	On what amount of similarity of their faunae is the doctrine of the contemporaneity of the European and of the North American Silurians based?
6414	Or does he differ less from them than they differ from one another, and hence must take his place in the same order with them?
6414	Or may I not rather ask, is it possible for you to discharge your functions properly without these aids?
6414	Or to turn to the higher Vertebrata-- in what sense are the Liassic Chelonia inferior to those which now exist?
6414	Or, suppose for a moment we admit the explanation, and then seriously ask ourselves how much the wiser are we; what does the explanation explain?
6414	Shall Biology alone remain out of harmony with her sister sciences?
6414	So what is the use of what you have done?"
6414	Surely, the principles involved in them are now admitted among the fixed beliefs of all thinking men?
6414	Surely, there is nothing in these explanations which is not fully borne out by the facts?
6414	That is to say, how many of these orders of animals have lived at a former period of the world''s history, but have at present no representatives?
6414	The first is: How has organic or living matter commenced its existence?
6414	The first question of course is, Do they thus return to the primitive stock?
6414	The great new question would be,"How does all this take place?"
6414	Then how can you possibly account for the curious circular form of the atolls by any supposition of this kind?
6414	Was the oldest''Homo sapiens''pliocene or miocene, or yet more ancient?
6414	Well, then, the yeast plant being essential to the production of fermentation, where does the yeast plant come from?
6414	What are these"dunes"?
6414	What are those inductions and deductions, and how have you got at this hypothesis?
6414	What books shall I read?
6414	What if species should offer residual phenomena, here and there, not explicable by natural selection?
6414	What if the orbit of Darwinism should be a little too circular?
6414	What is Mr. Darwin''s hypothesis?
6414	What is he doing?
6414	What is it originates, directs, and controls the motive power?
6414	What is it that constitutes and makes man what he is?
6414	What is the purpose of primary intellectual education?
6414	What is the use, it is said, of attempting to make physical science a branch of primary education?
6414	What is this very speech that we are talking about?
6414	What meaning has this fact upon any other hypothesis or supposition than one of successive modification?
6414	What more harmless than the attempt to lift and distribute water by pumping it; what more absolutely and grossly utilitarian?
6414	What relation have these two facts to one another?
6414	What was the reason of this?
6414	What will be the result, then?
6414	What will come of a variation when you breed from it, when Atavism comes, if I may say so, to intersect variation?
6414	What, then, takes place?
6414	When I examine it, what appears to be the most striking character it presents?
6414	Where in nature was the analogue of the breeder to be found?
6414	Where, then, must we look for primaeval Man?
6414	Why does one whole group of muscles contract when the lobster wishes to extend his tail, and another group when he desires to bend it?
6414	Your friend says to you,"But how do you know that?"
6414	and what is the evidence on which those fundamental propositions demand our assent?
6414	is there anything like the operation of man in exercising selective breeding, taking place in nature?
6414	or what is really the state of the case?
6414	said his opponents;"but what do you know you may be doing when you heat the air over the water in this way?
6414	that none of the phenomena exhibited by species are inconsistent with the origin of species in this way?
6414	that there is such a thing as natural selection?
6414	what are the fundamental assumptions upon which they all logically depend?
15905	But what is it that I have been doing? 15905 How do you know that the Lord doeth it?"
15905	What made the Mahommedan world? 15905 When I brake the five loaves among the five thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces took ye up?
15905	)[ 42] There is also a good deal said about a very questionable blind man-- one Albricus( Alberich?)
15905	And having made his election, what reasons has he to give for his choice?
15905	And if he is not, in what sense has this part of the uniformitarian doctrine, as he defines it, lowered its pretensions to represent scientific truth?
15905	And if so, how can agnosticism be the"mere negation of the physicist"?
15905	And now, what is to be said to Mr. Harrison''s remarkable deliverance"On the future of agnosticism"?
15905	And what is historical truth but that of which the evidence bears strict scientific investigation?
15905	And what is the state of things we find disclosed?
15905	And what made the Christian world?
15905	And what was the exact nature of the advice given?
15905	And when the seven among the four thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces took ye up?
15905	And, finally, how is this account to be reconciled with those in the first and third gospels-- which, as we have seen, disagree with one another?
15905	Are the authors of the versions in the second and third gospels really independent witnesses?
15905	Are there then any Christians who say that they know nothing about the unseen world and the future?
15905	Are there, then, any"conclusions"that are not"purely mental"?
15905	Are we going back to the days of the Judges, when wealthy Micah set up his private ephod, teraphim, and Levite?
15905	Are we to accept the Jesus of the second, or the Jesus of the fourth Gospel, as the true Jesus?
15905	But if the primitive Nazarenes of whom the Acts speak were orthodox Jews, what sort of probability can there be that Jesus was anything else?
15905	But is it true?
15905	But to how much does this so- called claim amount?
15905	But what conceivable motive could"Mark"have for omitting it?
15905	But what is the evidence in this case?
15905	But why all this more recent coil about the Gadarene swine and the like?
15905	But why should a man be expected to call himself a"miscreant"or an"infidel"?
15905	But will any one tell me that death is"necessary"?

15905	CREATION OR EVOLUTION?
15905	Cosmas and Damianus?
15905	Did Peter then omit to mention these matters?
15905	Did he really fail to speak of the great position in the Church solemnly assigned to him by Jesus?
15905	Did he think it, at any subsequent time, worth while"to confer with flesh and blood,"or, in modern phrase, to re- examine the facts for himself?
15905	Did the fact testified by the oldest authority extant, that the first appearance of the risen Jesus was to himself seem not worth mentioning?
15905	Do you pretend that these poor animals got in your way, years and years after the"Mosaic"fences were down, at any rate so far as you are concerned?
15905	Does he hold by the one evangelist''s story, or by that of the two evangelists?
15905	Does he really mean to suggest that agnostics have a logic peculiar to themselves?

15905	Has it now a merely antiquarian interest?
15905	How can he have founded the universal religion which was not heard of till twenty years after his death?
15905	I am sorry to trouble him further, but what does he mean by"it"?
15905	I ask any candid and impartial judge, Is that attacking anybody or anything?
15905	I rejoice to think now of the( then) Bishop''s cordial hail the first time we met after our little skirmish,"Well, is it to be peace or war?"
15905	If God did not walk in the Garden of Eden, how can we be assured that he spoke from Sinai?
15905	If early views of religion and morality had not been imperfect, where had been the development?

15905	If such materials were known to"Mark,"what imaginable reason could he have for not using them?
15905	If symbolical visions and mythical creations had found no place in the early Oriental expression of Divine truth, where had been the development?
15905	If the latter is to be accepted, or rejected, by private judgment, why not the former?
15905	If the story of the Fall is not the true record of an historical occurrence, what becomes of Pauline theology?
15905	If, he says, there are texts which seem to show that Jesus contemplated the evangelisation of the heathen:... Did not the Apostles hear our Lord?
15905	In one''s zeal much of the old gets broken to pieces; but has one made ready something new, fit to be set in the place of the old?
15905	Is he the kindly, peaceful Christ depicted in the Catacombs?
15905	Is it contained in the so- called Apostle''s Creed?
15905	Is it not certain that the Apostles did not gather this truth from His teaching?
15905	Is it that contained in the Nicene and the Athanasian Creeds?
15905	Is such a thing even conceivable?

15905	Might not there, however, be a suspension of a lower law by the intervention of a higher?
15905	Much astonished at this remark from a person who was supposed not to have seen the relics, Eginhard asked him how he knew that?
15905	Now what is a Christian?
15905	On what grounds can a reasonable man be asked to believe any more?
15905	Or can he be rightly represented by the bleeding ascetic, broken down by physical pain, of too many mediæval pictures?
15905	Really?
15905	So, if I am asked to call myself an"infidel,"I reply: To what doctrine do you ask me to be faithful?
15905	Still more, on the first day, when it is nothing but a flat cellular disk?
15905	The plain answer to this question is, Why should anybody be called upon to say how he knows that which he does not know?
15905	The preacher asks,"Might not there be a suspension of a lower law by the intervention of a higher?"
15905	The question for me is purely one of evidence: is the evidence adequate to bear out the theory, or is it not?

15905	Was not the name of"Christian"first used to denote the converts to the doctrine promulgated by Paul and Barnabas at Antioch?
15905	Was not their chief,"James, the brother of the Lord,"reverenced alike by Sadducee, Pharisee, and Nazarene?
15905	Was that prince of agnostics, David Hume, particularly imbued with physical science?
15905	Were Gentile converts bound to obey the Law or not?
15905	Were none others current in the Roman communities, at the time"Mark"wrote, supposing he wrote in Rome?
15905	Were these all that existed in the primitive threefold tradition?
15905	What do we find when the accounts of the events in question, contained in the three Synoptic gospels, are compared together?
15905	What is the"entire question"which"arises"in a"narrowed form"upon"secular testimony"?
15905	What is to hinder our supposing that the organic creation is also a result of natural laws which are in like manner an expression of His will?

5726	Again, if I speak to you, how does the sound reach you ear?
5726	Again, if I were to put this basin on the stove till all the water had boiled away, where would my drop be then?
5726	Again, on a windy night have you not heard the wind sounding a wild, sad note down a valley?
5726	Again, what are those curious sounds you may hear sometimes if you rest your head on a trunk in the forest?
5726	All this is what is going on outside your ear, but what is happening in your ear itself?
5726	And have you any curiosity about''Chemical action,''which works such wonders in air, and land, and sea?
5726	And how do you think it is set going?
5726	And is there nothing beyond this?
5726	And now how large do you think they turn out to be?
5726	And now, can you understand why sea- water should taste salt and bitter?
5726	And now, what has Ice got to do with the sculpturing of the land?
5726	And the life of the plant?
5726	And then say, can you fear for your own little life, even though it may have its troubles?
5726	And what use is made of the water which we have kept waiting all this time in the leaves?
5726	And when you arrived there, how large do you think you would find him to be?
5726	Are not these tiny invisible messengers coming incessantly from the sun as wonderful as any fairies?
5726	But are they gone for ever?
5726	But do we know the history of how they are formed, or what is the use of the different parts of the bud?
5726	But have you never seen this water spell- bound and motionless?
5726	But how about ice?
5726	But how about the coal itself?
5726	But how come they to find any empty space to receive them?
5726	But how does it grow?
5726	But how, then, comes it that I can lift it so easily?
5726	But its own pollen is all gone, how then will it get any?
5726	But meanwhile, how is new protoplasm to be formed?
5726	But people often ask, what is the use of learning all this?
5726	But perhaps you will ask, if no one has ever seen these waves not the ether in which they are made, what right have we to say they are there?
5726	But tell me, can you see gas before it is lighted, even when it is coming out of the gas- jet close to your eyes?
5726	But tell me, does it lead you to love my piece of coral?
5726	But we are as yet no nearer the answer to the question, What is a sunbeam?
5726	But we have an invisible veil protecting us, made- of what do you think?
5726	But we will not be like these, we will open our eyes and ask,"What are these forces or fairies, and how can we see them?"
5726	But what becomes of the carbon?
5726	But what becomes of the dissolved chalk and other substances?
5726	But what fairies are they which have been at work here?
5726	But what has this to do with sculpture or cutting out of valleys?
5726	But what is it that has changed these beds of dead plants into hard, stony coal?
5726	But when it joins itself in this way to its companions, from whom it was parted for a time, does it come back clear and transparent as it left them?
5726	But where are the anthers, and where is the stigma?
5726	But where does the heat come from which makes this water invisible?
5726	But why should the primroses have such golden crowns?
5726	Can science bring any tale to match this?
5726	Can you help feeling a part of this guided and governed nature?
5726	Can you imagine these water- particles, just above any pond or lake, rising up and getting entangled among the air- atoms?
5726	Can you picture tiny sunbeam- waves of light and heat travelling from the sun to the earth?
5726	Can you tell me why it grows?
5726	Did you ever try to run races on a very windy day?
5726	Do these then too make waves all across the enormous distance between them and us?
5726	Do they come from the glass?
5726	Do you care to know how another strange fairy,''Electricity,''flings the lightning across the sky and causes the rumbling thunder?
5726	Do you know why we hear a buzzing, as the gnat, the bee, or the cockchafer fly past?
5726	Do you never feel tired and"out of sorts,"and want to creep away from your companions, because they are merry and you are not?
5726	Do you not remember that the air- atoms are always trying to fly apart, and are only kept pressed together by the weight of air above them?
5726	Do you remember how we noticed at the beginning of the lecture that a bee always likes to visit the same kind of plant in one journey?
5726	Do you see now how foolish it is to live in rooms that are closely shut up, or to hide your head under the bedclothes when you sleep?
5726	Do you think we have now rightly answered the question- What is a sunbeam?
5726	First, then, can we discover what air is?
5726	For where in the whole world, except indeed upon an anthill, can we find so busy, so industrious, or so orderly a community as among the bees?
5726	Had not even this little child some real picture in her mind of invisible water coming from her mouth, and making drops upon the window- pane?
5726	Have we anything like them living in the world now?
5726	Have you any picture in your mind of the coral animal, its home, or its manner of working?
5726	Have you ever amused yourself with trying how many different sounds you can distinguish if you listen at an open window in a busy street?
5726	Have you ever heard that invisible waves are travelling every second over the space between the sun and us?
5726	Have you ever seen the little club moss or Lycopodium which grows all over England, but chiefly in the north, on heaths and mountains?
5726	Have you ever thought why dew forms, or what power has been at work scattering the sparkling drops upon the grass?
5726	Have you ever tried to pick limpets off a rock?
5726	Have you forgotten our giant force,"gravitation,"which draws things together from a distance?
5726	Have you never watched the waves breaking upon a beach in a heavy storm?
5726	Have you not observed that different flowers open and close at different times?
5726	Having now learned what air is, the next question which presents itself is, Why does it stay round our earth?
5726	Hearken to the brook as it flows by, watch the flower- buds opening one by one, and then ask yourself,"How all this is done?"
5726	How did they come there?
5726	How do these blows of the air speak to your brain?
5726	How far away from us do you think he is?
5726	How has all this history been worked out from the shapeless stone?
5726	How have these crystals been built up?
5726	How is it then, that if all these different waves making different colours, hit on our eye, they do not always make us see coloured light?
5726	How is it to get this water up into the stem and leaves, seeing that the whole plant is made of closed bags or cells?
5726	How will the bee touch them?
5726	How, then, has the sound been produced?
5726	If I put it in the sunlight which is streaming through the window, what happens?
5726	If the air gets less and less dense as it is farther from the earth, where does it stop altogether?
5726	If you have any wish to know and make friends of these invisible forces, the next question is How are you to enter the fairy- land of science?
5726	Is coal made of burnt plants, then?
5726	Is it not that things happen so suddenly, so mysteriously, and without man having anything to do with it?
5726	Is not the sunbeam so dear to us that it has become a household word for all that is merry and gay?
5726	Is not this a fairy tale of nature?
5726	Is not this wonderful, going on as it does at every sound you hear?
5726	It seems likely, when we find roots below and leaves and stems above, that the middle is made of plants, but can we prove it?
5726	Now look at my plant again, and tell me if we have not already found a curious history?
5726	Now, do you believe in, and care for, my fairy- land?
5726	Now, has it ever occurred to you to think what sounds is, and how it is that we hear all these things?
5726	Stop for a moment and rest, and ask yourself, what is the wind?
5726	Tell me, have you any idea where this drop has been?
5726	Tell me, why do you love fairy- land?
5726	Tell me; what has become of the rain- drops?
5726	The next question is, what kind of plants were these?
5726	The sun is more than ninety- one millions of miles away; how has he touched the rain- drops?
5726	The waves, however, do not only roar as they dash on the ground; have you never noticed how they seem to scream as they draw back down the beach?
5726	Upon what then is the plant to live?
5726	Week 12 Can we form any idea why the crystals build themselves up so systematically?
5726	Week 18 But why then do we not hear all sounds as music?
5726	Week 9 But why will it not remain more than 30 inches high in the tube?
5726	What are these colours?
5726	What are they doing there?
5726	What do you think is the reason of this?
5726	What fairies are at work here?
5726	What forms will it take before it reappears in the rain- cloud, the river, or the sparkling dew?
5726	What has been happening here?
5726	What has been happening here?
5726	What is it, and why is this protoplasm always active and busy?
5726	What is that note answering her?
5726	What is their use?
5726	What is this little green tip peeping up out of the ground under the snowy covering?
5726	What makes it become larger?
5726	What makes the air restless?
5726	What power has been at work arranging their delicate forms?
5726	What will happen when they get there?
5726	What, then, becomes of all this water?
5726	What, you will ask, is this too the work of the sunbeams?
5726	When you have reached and entered the gates of science, how are you to use and enjoy this new and beautiful land?
5726	Where do the drops come from?
5726	Where does the heat come from?
5726	Where would it go?
5726	Who can say that he is not a great invisible giant, always silently and invisibly toiling in great things and small whether we wake or sleep?
5726	Why am I not conscious of the weight?
5726	Why are some mere noise, and others clear musical notes?
5726	Why do the coals burn and give out a glowing light?
5726	Why do you think it sounds so much louder and more musical here than when it is blowing across the plain?
5726	Why does it blow sometimes one way and sometimes another, and sometimes not at all?
5726	Why does it sing so sweetly, while the wide deep river makes no noise?
5726	Why is this?
5726	Why is this?
5726	Why is this?
5726	Why is this?
5726	Why is this?
5726	Why is this?
5726	Why should it sound in one particular tone when all kinds of sound- waves must be surging about in the disturbed air?
5726	Why, then, do not all the atoms of oxygen and nitrogen fly away from our earth into space, and leave us without any air?
5726	Why?
5726	Yes, but how?
5726	You have surely heard of gravitation, by which the sun holds the earth and the planets, and keeps them moving round him in regular order?
5726	and why are they round, or rather slightly oval?
5726	and why have the things in the room become visible by such slow degrees?
5726	do you see now the reason why pan- pipes give different sounds, or even the hole at the end of a common key when you blow across it?
5726	how does the sun touch our earth?
5726	or if they were behind a hedge, and he could not see them, would not the sweet scent tell him where to come and look for them?
5726	what changes it has undergone, and what work it has been doing during all the long ages that water has lain on the face of the earth?
5726	what is its charm?
5726	what makes it spread out its leaves and add to its stalk day by day?
5726	where it finds its food?
5726	why should it not lie still all round the earth?
16775	And you can not pretend,said I to him in_ my_ turn,"to see better than an astronomer by profession?
16775	But since the Koran allows you to repudiate even legitimate wives, why do you not send back three of them to their parents?
16775	Do they live together on a good understanding?
16775	Do you know that you have behaved in this affair like a young inexperienced man, or, to speak out, like a blunderer? 16775 Do you know the accused?"
16775	Do you know,said the great lady as soon as she saw him,"a Eulogy of Gresset recently published?
16775	Finally,said the examiner to me,"how do you determine the tension of the various cords of which a funicular machine is composed?"
16775	Grenadier, what is your name?
16775	How many legitimate wives have you?
16775	In a word, what country is it?
16775	Is much expected of the candidates?
16775	Is that indeed your answer, and am I to communicate it to the king?
16775	M. Leboullenger,said the professor to him,"you have seen the moon?"
16775	They are in great haste,said he;"what will you gain by carrying matters to extremities?
16775	What do you think of my enterprise?
16775	What have you done?
16775	What is that?
16775	What is your name, sir?
16775	What school is that?
16775	What science do you cultivate?
16775	What would you wish me to do?
16775	Whence do you come?
16775	Where is the surgeon,I said to him,"who operated on you?"
16775	Who, then, cut off your arm?
16775	Why did you choose it? 16775 Why?
16775	Would you punish me, sir, because nature has endowed me with the gift of languages? 16775 You are not French then?"
16775	--"A duty you say?
16775	And yet after all, was it not a fit subject for discussion, whether, these double nominations are of any real utility?
16775	Are you satisfied, señor?"
16775	As for myself, I think it would be puerile to stop at such a difficulty; have we not leaped high over other difficulties far more embarrassing?
16775	Bakri often came to the French Consulate to talk of our affairs with M. Dubois Thainville:"What can you want?"
16775	Besides, with double, triple, and quadruple academicians, what would eventually become of the justly boasted unity of the Institute?
16775	Between these two extreme positions, how does the diminution of the emissive power operate?
16775	But has the converse proposition the same certainty?
16775	But might not other forces, by combining with attraction, produce gradually increasing perturbations as Newton and Euler dreaded?
16775	But ought we in reality to be astonished at it?
16775	But was his promise absolute?
16775	But what purpose would philosophy serve, if it did not teach us to conquer our passions?
16775	Can it be said, after this, that great men are not subject to strange weaknesses?
16775	Could the effect of imagination go so far?
16775	Could the two murders committed in the morning be imputed to these men?
16775	Did not Plutarch immortalize himself by preserving noble actions and fine sentiments from oblivion?
16775	Do you not see, moreover, that this would expose us to the resentment of all those who obey the orders of this redoubted chief?
16775	Does it create surprise that it required more than fifteen years to obtain the grant of this most reasonable demand?
16775	Does not this suffice to justify the unusual ardour of my conduct?
16775	Does this body launch out incessantly in every direction a part of its own substance?
16775	Had the petitioners, by assembling on the Champ de Mars, violated any law?
16775	Had these forms been violated?
16775	Had they committed some assassinations?
16775	He answered immediately,"You do not surely pretend to observe better with your bad telescope than I did with my_ Dollond_?"
16775	He did not know Latin?
16775	How could I forget here the last secretary of the original Academy?
16775	How happens it, after such exact observations, that few astronomers now admit the existence of active volcanoes in the moon?
16775	I exclaimed;"what could lead you, when it was not your profession, to perform this operation?"
16775	I jumped down from my camp bed, and, seizing my servant by the throat,--"Are you mad?"
16775	I will endeavour to reproduce this dialogue with all possible fidelity:--"Who are you?"
16775	If Fourier honoured himself by refusing to obey certain orders, what are we to think of the minister of the interior from whom those orders emanated?
16775	In what did these lenses differ from the double convex lenses?
16775	Is it gradually diminishing in volume and mass?
16775	Is light an emanation from the sun?
16775	Is there any relation between the final temperatures and the distances of the different particles of the bar from the extremity directly heated?
16775	Moreover, have not unpublished and very valuable documents come to shed bright colours, just where the spirit of party had spread a thick veil?
16775	Must we speak of false characters, perverse hearts, that seemed to regard errors and abuses as their patrimony?"
16775	Must we suspect jealousy to have been at work?
16775	Napoleon said to him, sneeringly:--"The entire Senate, then, is to merge in the Institute?"
16775	Our colleague was informed of this, and the question,"Have you been in Egypt?"
16775	People will say to me, What are your claims for daring to modify a page of our revolutionary history, on which every one seemed agreed?
16775	Shall I confess it?
16775	Should they lightly make just sentiments of disgust and indignation rest upon an immense class of citizens?
16775	Some days after Bailly went to pay her a visit; did he hope to hear her speak favourably of the new work?
16775	Such is the fact: what says theory?
16775	Tell me if I can travel at night?
16775	Tell me whether I have any thing to fear from your confederates?"
16775	The Grand Master of the Ceremonies having remarked it, approaching Bailly said to him,"You heard the king''s order, Sir?"
16775	The National Guard?
16775	The Tribunals?
16775	The electors in the passage quoted do not enunciate a different opinion: where then is the contradiction?
16775	The new historian adds:"How could the Mayor alone labour under this delusion?
16775	They availed themselves of this omission( will it be believed?)
16775	To lead our colleague to make inexact declarations, or to concealments from a feeling of imminent personal danger?
16775	To make virtue finally stagger?
16775	To merit the epithet of diffident, must we think ourselves beneath the competitors of whom we are at least the equals?
16775	To suggest the thought to him to save his own head at the expense of that of an unhappy woman?
16775	To the professors of the art?
16775	To the question"Who is there?"
16775	To whom should we impute the long duration of this vicious and inhuman organization?
16775	Was it at least permitted to depend on the regular armed force?
16775	Was it owing to chance that attestations were wanting for the miracles at the Cemetery of St. Médard?
16775	Was it requisite, without any sort of proof, to impute to the mass of the people the infernal cynicism of cannibals?
16775	Was it thus in the pretended phenomena of animal magnetism?
16775	Was the meeting illegal?
16775	Was the truth, the strict truth, not sufficiently distressing?
16775	Was this a real tint, or did the central reddish body, only through contrast, make the surrounding vapour appear to be coloured?
16775	Was this an incident, I ask, to exclaim so much against?
16775	Were more important functions reserved for him?
16775	Were our colleagues really acquainted with the object of this expedition?
16775	Were such great discordances due to the disturbing action of the planets?
16775	What are the relations of a curved line to the straight line that is a tangent to it?"
16775	What could I add to such an eulogium?
16775	What could I say to him?
16775	What could be more simple, however?
16775	What could be opposed to them?
16775	What did they hope for?
16775	What happens then?
16775	What have you to reproach me with?"
16775	What is the distance of the sun from the earth?
16775	What remains then of his pamphlet?
16775	What signified, after all, this or that qualification of this monstrous trial?
16775	What was it in fact?
16775	What was the cause of this sudden change?
16775	What was the true motive for such a strange measure?
16775	What were those for which the public was indebted to the direct exertions of Bailly?
16775	What, then, was wanting to the memory of our colleague?
16775	Whence did you get it?"
16775	Whence then had the illustrious naturalist derived such a great affection for Maury, such violent antipathies against Sedaine?
16775	Who had not seen with his own eyes enterprises of a truly desperate nature brought to a fortunate issue?
16775	Who has not, for example, read with tears in their eyes, in the_ Mémoires sur les Prisons_, what the author relates of the fourteen girls of Verdun?
16775	Who, besides, had not encountered imminent personal danger?
16775	Why persist in remaining in a condition that so openly wounds humanity?
16775	Will you be so good as to question me?
16775	Yet is not red the usual colour of the moon when eclipsed, and when it has not entirely disappeared?
16775	You are of Spanish origin, are you not?"
16775	You deceived us then?"
16775	[ 25] It may perhaps be asked why we place Lagrange among the French geometers?
16775	[ 3]"What will they do with us?"
16775	and do you not see that in Dauphiny nobody is of the same mind?
16775	ought he not to have cast a hasty glance on the components of the Black Prince''s army?
16775	said I to him;"are we to discharge the duties of police in this country?
16775	to examine whether a body of troops, starting from Bordeaux, recruiting in Guienne, did not contain more Gascons than English?
16775	was it to bribe me?"
16775	why did you not tell me that at once?
16775	you say that you have never seen the moon?"
10427	Is anything too hard for the Lord?
10427	And consider, Is not man a kind?
10427	And courage?
10427	And does the fact of the demon and his doings, being as yet unseen and unknown, make them spiritual, or the harm that he may do, a spiritual harm?
10427	And for woman-- What might I not say on that point?
10427	And has not mankind varied, physically, intellectually, spiritually?
10427	And how do I know that the chalk was covered with sand- beds?
10427	And if any say( as is often too rashly said): This is not the God of the New: I answer, but have you read your New Testament?
10427	And if any shall reply-- And what use if I do try?
10427	And if you say-- Who is sufficient for these things?--Who can answer these questions?
10427	And is not that fear of the spiritual world?
10427	And is this all which the facts mean?
10427	And now you are here, how do you get your living?
10427	And the sacred tree?
10427	And was it sawn asunder merely by the age- long gnawing of the waves?
10427	And when did each come hither?
10427	And why should they try or wish to lift it?
10427	Another: It is all physiological units; but his reason asks: What is the"physis,"the nature and"innate tendency"of the units?
10427	Are we to reverence Him less or more, if we hear that His might is greater, His wisdom deeper, than we ever dreamed?
10427	Are you and your children thriving, like decent people who can take care of themselves, or growing pauperised and degraded, and dying out?
10427	As for God, who can find Him?
10427	Because the land was more friable originally?
10427	Because there was more rain then than now?
10427	Bio- geology, then, begins with asking every plant or animal you meet, large or small, not merely-- What is your name?
10427	But again, does that fact really cut off any great space of time from his hundreds of thousands of years?
10427	But did all the powers of the universe combine to prevent it growing?
10427	But does the matter end here?
10427	But has the savage no other faculties, save his five senses and five passions?
10427	But how came these tertiary sandstones to be so very hard, while the strata around them are so soft?
10427	But how do I know that there was a shore- line here?
10427	But how was it raised?
10427	But is not that still a hasty assumption?
10427	But is there not, besides that law, a law of mutual help?
10427	But what are they finding, more and more, below their facts, below all phenomena which the scalpel and the microscope can show?
10427	But what do we find in the Bible, with the exception of that first curse?
10427	But what has that to do with mere fear of the unseen?
10427	But what has this to do with a gravel- pit?
10427	But what if the fear be not rational, but irrational?
10427	But what if the wasp tribe had no captives?
10427	But what if they began to fail?
10427	But what success had they?
10427	But where did the sandstone come from?
10427	But which child reverences his father most?
10427	But why?
10427	But why?
10427	But, fear of the unknown?
10427	By what road did you come?
10427	Did not all the powers of the universe also combine to make it grow, if only it had valour and worth wherewith to grow?
10427	Did not the rains feed it, the very mortar in the wall give lime to its roots?
10427	Do I say that this is all?
10427	For then there comes to him the thought-- And are these all the facts?
10427	From whence did vegetable and animal life crawl back to the land, as it rose again; and cover its mantle of glacial drift with fresh life and verdure?
10427	Had not he deserted them?
10427	Have you read the Book of Revelations?
10427	Have you read the latter chapters of St. Matthew?
10427	Have you read the opening of the Epistle to the Romans?
10427	He that planted the ear, shall He not hear?"
10427	He walks by day past a black cavern mouth, and thinks, with a shudder-- Something ugly may live in that ugly hole: what if it jumped out upon me?
10427	How could it be otherwise?
10427	How did these three floras get each to its present place?
10427	How do I know that?
10427	How does that suit your conception of a God of love?
10427	How should they escape it?
10427	I answer-- Who but you, or your pupils after you, if you will but try?
10427	I know that many, especially men of business, are inclined to sneer at it, and ask what is the use of it?
10427	If a rock falls from the cliff above him, what more natural than to suppose that there is some giant up there who threw it at him?
10427	If the old words,"He that made the eye, shall He not see?
10427	Is it a study to make men conceited and self- sufficient?
10427	Is it not likely, then, to be afraid of the wrong object?
10427	Is not that a joy, a prize, which wealth can not give, nor poverty take away?
10427	Is not that a one- sided statement of facts?
10427	Is not that an evidence of its personality?
10427	Is not that fear of the unseen world?
10427	Is not the Bible, from beginning to end, a history of the variations of mankind, for worse or for better, from their original type?
10427	Learnt what a gravel- pit is?
10427	Mary Queen of Scots was"beautiful and unfortunate"--what heart would not bleed for a beautiful woman in trouble?
10427	May it not sleep there all day, and prowl for prey all night?
10427	May not their denuding power have been far greater in old times than now?
10427	Now, if there should come to any thinking man of this tribe, at this epoch, the new thought-- Who made the world?
10427	Now, what do these two plants mark?
10427	Now, whence did they come?
10427	Now-- how do we know that?
10427	One says: It is all vibrations; but his reason, unsatisfied, asks: And what makes the vibrations vibrate?
10427	Or are you among the weak, the failing, the dwindling, the doomed?
10427	Or by a mighty current?
10427	Or by water draining off a vast flat as it was upheaved out of the sea?
10427	Or, if not there, where?
10427	Ought God to seem less or more august in our eyes, when we are told that His means are even more simple than we supposed?
10427	Reverence?
10427	Shall I be the happier for it?
10427	Shall I be the wiser?
10427	Shall we quarrel with Science if she should show how those words are true?
10427	So, you plant or you animal, are you among the strong, the successful, the multiplying, the colonising?
10427	That brute competition is the one law of his life?
10427	That he is doomed for ever to be the slave of his own needs, enforced by an internecine struggle for existence?
10427	That is Nature''s law: and is it not at first sight a fearful law?
10427	That man is merely a part of Nature, the puppet of circumstances and hereditary tendencies?
10427	The next question is, What study?
10427	Three worlds?
10427	Try and conceive, then, what a much more vast mass of chalk must have been washed away, to leave that vast mass of gravel behind it.--Conceive?
10427	Was Theophrastus''s superstitious man so very foolish for pouring oil on every round stone?
10427	Was it made by an earthquake?
10427	Was it not written of old:"Whither shall I go from Thy presence, or whither shall I flee from Thy spirit?"
10427	Was its bed, sea or dry land, or under an ice sheet, during the long ages of the glacial epoch?
10427	Was not the wasp- king angry with them?
10427	Well-- what do those stones tell us?
10427	What broke them up?
10427	What chain of misreasoning had they in their heads when they hit on that as a device for making the crops grow?
10427	What cure is there?
10427	What deliverance is there from this mysterious house- fiend, save brute force?
10427	What difference is there between a savage''s fear of a demon, and a hunter''s fear of a fall?
10427	What does the savage fear?
10427	What formed the magnificent escarpment of the Beacon Hill, or the lesser one of Finchamstead Ridges?
10427	What furrowed out their steep side- valleys?
10427	What if he be right?
10427	What if it be, in plain homely English, blind fear; fear of the unknown, simply because it is unknown?
10427	What if the agony and death of slaves did not appease the wasps?
10427	What makers or builders more cunning than those wasps of whom his foolish head is full?
10427	What matter to the sentimentalist?
10427	What meant the fruit, the flowers, the honey, which the slaves left there by night?
10427	What need for the soldier and the man of science to fraternise just now?
10427	What next will be demanded of us by physical science?
10427	What she will do in her maturity, who dare predict?
10427	What swept away all but a thin cap of them on the upper part of Dogmersfield Park, another under Winchfield House; another at Bearwood, and so forth?
10427	What then?
10427	What use if I succeed in answering every question which you have propounded to- night?
10427	What use, if I do try?
10427	What was the result?
10427	What was your last place of abode?
10427	What were those Red Men thinking of?
10427	What would be the result?
10427	When, finally, did it dwindle down to the brook which now runs through Wareham town?
10427	When?
10427	Where did each come from?
10427	Where the Straits of Dover are now?
10427	Which is the oldest?
10427	Who but the nymphs?
10427	Who can make the crooked straight, or number that which is wanting?
10427	Who can tell?
10427	Who had done it?
10427	Why not?
10427	Why not?
10427	Why not?
10427	Why pry into her awful secrets?
10427	Why should it?
10427	Why stop to ascertain what sort of a prison it was?
10427	Why stop to ask whether she brought it on herself?
10427	Will any one tell me what harm it has ever done?
10427	Will any one tell me whether the healthy floras of the moors, or the thymy flora of the chalk downs, were the earlier inhabitants of these isles?
10427	You ask why this is?
10427	You demur?
10427	You must ask--Was there not land to the south of the Isle of Wight in those ages, and for ages after; and what was its extent and shape?
10427	does not St. Paul hold the identity of the whole Jewish race with Israel their forefather, as strongly as any prophet of the Old Testament?
10427	to be hurtful, ruinous to animals as well as to man?
16729	What is the wind?
16729	What is this water, and where does it run?
16729	What makes the waves in the sea?
16729	Where does this animal live, and what is the use of that plant?
16729	A hard- headed friend of mine, who was present, put the not unnatural question,"Then why do n''t you say so in your pulpits?"
16729	Again, what simpler, or more absolutely practical, than the attempt to keep the axle of a wheel from heating when the wheel turns round very fast?
16729	And by way of a beginning, let us ask ourselves-- What is education?
16729	And how has it fared with"Physick"and Anatomy?
16729	And if he honestly believes that, of what avail is it to quote the commandment against stealing, when he proposes to make the capitalist disgorge?
16729	And in that case what is the value of M. Comte''s praise of him?
16729	And is he consistent with fact?
16729	And now, what is the ultimate fate, and what the origin, of the matter of life?
16729	And the result?
16729	And this leads me to ask, Why should scientific teaching be limited to week- days?
16729	And this question subdivides itself into two:--the first, are we really contravening such conclusions?
16729	And what has made this difference?
16729	And what is the dire necessity and"iron"law under which men groan?
16729	And whether, of these English books, more than one in ten is the work of a fellow of a college, or a professor of an English university?
16729	And would not Terence stop his ears and run out if he could be present at an English performance of his own plays?
16729	And, after all, is it quite so certain that a genetic relation may not underlie the classification of minerals?
16729	And, as involved in, and underlying all these questions, how ought they to be educated?
16729	And,_ à fortiori_, between all four?
16729	Are all the grandest and most interesting problems which offer themselves to the geological student essentially insoluble?
16729	Are modern geologists prepared to say that all life was killed off the earth 50,000, 100,000, or 200,000 years ago?
16729	But I imagine I hear the question, How is all this to be tested?
16729	But how does this classification differ from that of the scientific Zoologist?
16729	But how is this remarkable propulsive machine made to perform its functions?
16729	But if this apparently vital operation were explicable as a simple mechanism, might not other vital operations be reducible to the same category?
16729	But is an education which ignores them all, a liberal education?
16729	But is the analogy a real one?
16729	But is the earth nothing but a cooling mass,"like a hot- water jar such as is used in carriages,"or"a globe of sandstone?"
16729	But suppose we prefer to admit our ignorance rather than adopt a hypothesis at variance with all the teachings of Nature?
16729	But the plague?
16729	But what has Comtism to do with the"New Philosophy,"as the Archbishop defines it in the following passage?
16729	But what has grown out of this search for natural knowledge of so merely useful a character?
16729	But what is all we really know and can know about the latter phænomenon?
16729	But what then?
16729	But whither does all this tend?
16729	But why does a muscle contract at one time and not at another?
16729	Can it, therefore, be said that chemical analysis teaches nothing about the chemical composition of calc- spar?
16729	Did M. Flourens ever visit one of the prettiest watering- places of"la belle France,"the Baie d''Arcachon?
16729	Do they afford us the smallest ground for refusing to educate women as well as men-- to give women the same civil and political rights as men?
16729	Do you think that the Christianity of the seventeenth century looks nobler and more attractive for such treatment of such a man?"
16729	Does Nature acknowledge, in any deeper way, this unity of plan we seem to trace?
16729	Does biology, whether"abstract"or"concrete,"occupy itself with any other form of life than those which exist, or have existed?
16729	Does he speculate upon the possible movements of bodies which may attract one another in the inverse proportion of the cube of their distances, say?
16729	Does the astronomer occupy himself with any other system of the universe than that which is visible to him?
16729	FOOTNOTE:[ 1] Need it be said that this is Tennyson''s English for Homer''s Greek?
16729	Fact I know; and Law I know; but what is this Necessity, save an empty shadow of my own mind''s throwing?
16729	Finally, it occurs to me that, such being my feeling about the matter, it may be useful to all of us if I ask you,"What is yours?
16729	For what are the phænomena of Agamogenesis, stated generally?
16729	For what does the middle- class school put in the place of all these things which are left out?
16729	For, after all, what do we know of this terrible"matter,"except as a name for the unknown and hypothetical cause of states of our own consciousness?

16729	How many of us know that the voice is produced in the larynx, and modified by the mouth?
16729	How then has this notion of the inexactness of Biological science come about?
16729	How then is the production of new species to be rendered intelligible by the analogy of Agamogenesis?
16729	I reply, why should the thing which has been called education do either the one or the other?
16729	If I study a living being, under what heads does the knowledge I obtain fall?
16729	If primary and secondary education are in this unsatisfactory state, what is to be said to the universities?
16729	Is M. Comte consistent with himself in making these assertions?
16729	Is any such unity predicable of their forms?
16729	Is he in the position of a scientific Tantalus-- doomed always to thirst for a knowledge which he can not obtain?
16729	Is it any more than a grandiloquent way of announcing the fact, that we really know nothing about the matter?
16729	Is it both; or is it neither?
16729	Is it built up of ordinary matter, and again resolved into ordinary matter when its work is done?
16729	Is it satisfactorily proved, in fact, that species may be originated by selection?
16729	Is it then the_ results_ of Biological science which are"inexact"?
16729	Is palæontology able to succeed where physical geology fails?
16729	Is such a universal history, then, to be regarded as unattainable?
16729	Is there any test of a physiological species?
16729	Is this a plant; or is it an animal?
16729	Is this from any lack of power in the English as compared with the German mind?
16729	It is not probable that teachers, in pursuing such studies, will be led astray from the acquirement of more important but less attractive knowledge?
16729	It is the question, why should training masters be encouraged to acquire a knowledge of this, or any other branch of physical science?
16729	Let us take these points separately; and, first, what great ideas has natural knowledge introduced into men''s minds?
16729	May it not help us if it be pleased, or( as seems to be by far the more general impression) hurt us if it be angered?
16729	No doubt it is a pretty and ingenious way of looking at the structure of any animal, but is it anything more?
16729	Now does this mean that it may have been two, or three, or four hundred million years?
16729	Now what does this mean?

16729	On what amount of similarity of their faunæ is the doctrine of the contemporaneity of the European and of the North American Silurians based?
16729	One is constantly asked, When should this scientific education be commenced?
16729	Or may I not rather ask, is it possible for you to discharge your functions properly without these aids?
16729	Or may it not be also considered as an organized body?
16729	Or to turn to the higher Vertebrata-- in what sense are the Liassic Chelonia inferior to those which now exist?
16729	Or, is the matter of life composed of ordinary matter, differing from it only in the manner in which its atoms are aggregated?
16729	Or, suppose for a moment we admit the explanation, and then seriously ask ourselves how much the wiser are we; what does the explanation explain?
16729	Quashie''s plaintive inquiry,"Am I not a man and a brother?"
16729	Said I not rightly that we are a wonderful people?
16729	Shall Biology alone remain out of harmony with her sister sciences?
16729	Surely this quality must be in the thing, and not in our minds?
16729	Surely, the principles involved in them are now admitted among the fixed beliefs of all thinking men?
16729	Surely, there is nothing in these explanations which is not fully borne out by the facts?
16729	The child asks,"What is the moon, and why does it shine?"
16729	The first inquiry which arises plainly is, has it ever been denied that this period_ may_ be enough for the purposes of geology?
16729	The great new question would be,"How does all this take place?"
16729	The next question to which I have to address myself is, What sciences ought to be thus taught?
16729	This is obvious from the mention of Catholicism,"demonstrates that Mr. Congreve has no acquaintance with the"Philosophie Positive"?
16729	Under these circumstances it may well be asked, how is one mass of non- nucleated protoplasm to be distinguished from another?
16729	What are these"dunes?"
16729	What better philosophical status has"vitality"than"aquosity"?
16729	What books shall I read?

16729	What is it originates, directs, and controls the motive power?
16729	What is it that happens?
16729	What is the cause of this wonderful difference between the dead particle and the living particle of matter appearing in other respects identical?
16729	What is the purpose of primary intellectual education?
16729	What is the use, it is said, of attempting to make physical science a branch of primary education?

16729	What, then, is certain?
16729	What, truly, can seem to be more obviously different from one another in faculty, in form, and in substance, than the various kinds of living beings?
16729	When I examine it, what appears to be the most striking character it presents?
16729	Where is such an education as this to be had?
16729	Where is there any approximation to it?
16729	Who knows but that the"& c."may include Hume?
16729	Why does one whole group of muscles contract when the lobster wishes to extend his tail, and another group, when he desires to bend it?
16729	Why should he not?
16729	Why should we be worse off under one_ régime_ than under the other?
16729	Why trouble ourselves about matters of which, however important they may be, we do know nothing, and can know nothing?
16729	Will it not be well to do towards it those things which would have soothed the man and put him in good humour during his life?
16729	Will it not retain somewhat of the powers it possessed during life?
16729	Will you give a man with this much information a vote?
16729	Would such a catastrophe destroy the parallel?
16729	Yet, if one has anything to say, what is easier than to say it?
16729	_ Does it contain any experimental reasoning concerning matter of fact and existence_?
16729	and has its cooling been uniform?
16729	and what is the evidence on which those fundamental propositions demand our assent?
16729	and whence did it come?
16729	that difference to which we give the name of Life?
16729	that none of the phænomena exhibited by species are inconsistent with the origin of species in this way?
16729	that there is such a thing as natural selection?
16729	the second, if we are, are those conclusions so firmly based that we may not contravene them?
16729	what are the fundamental assumptions upon which they all logically depend?

34698	And what doth the Lord require of thee, but to{ 96} do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?
34698	Understood?
34698	What made the Mahommedan world? 34698 )[ 102] There is also a good deal said about a very questionable blind man-- one Albricus( Alberich?) 34698 23)--is not this Deity conceived as manlike in form? 34698 27 David says to Zadok the priest,Art thou not a seer?"
34698	ARE THE EFFECTS OF USE AND DISUSE INHERITED?
34698	And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me to bring me up?
34698	And Samuel said, Wherefore then dost thou ask of me, seeing that Jahveh is departed from thee and is become thine adversary?
34698	And having made his election, what reasons has he to give for his choice?
34698	And if he is not, in what sense has this part of the uniformitarian doctrine, as he defines it, lowered its pretensions to represent scientific truth?
34698	And if so, how can agnosticism be the"mere negation of the physicist"?
34698	And now, what is to be said to Mr. Harrison''s remarkable deliverance"On the future of agnosticism"?
34698	And what is historical truth but that of which the evidence bears strict scientific investigation?
34698	And what is the state of things we find disclosed?
34698	And what made the Christian world?
34698	And what was the exact nature of the advice given?
34698	And, finally, how is this account to be reconciled with those in the first and third gospels-- which, as we have seen, disagree with one another?
34698	And, in matter of fact, can the record, with due regard to legitimate historical criticism, be pronounced true?
34698	Are the authors of the versions in the second and the third gospels really independent witnesses?
34698	Are there then any Christians who say that they know nothing about the unseen world and the future?
34698	Are there, then, any"conclusions"that are not"purely mental"?
34698	Are they, as the healthy common sense of the ancient Greeks appears to have led them to assume without hesitation, the remains of animals and plants?
34698	Are we going back to the days of the Judges, when wealthy Micah set up his private ephod, teraphim, and Levite?
34698	Are we to accept the Jesus of the second, or the Jesus of the fourth Gospel, as the true Jesus?
34698	But I ask in this case also, how is it conceivable that any man, in possession of all his natural faculties, should hold such an opinion?
34698	But have we a right to do so?
34698	But if the primitive Nazarenes of whom the Acts speaks were orthodox Jews, what sort of probability can there be that Jesus was anything else?
34698	But is it true?
34698	But to Saul nothing is visible, for he asks,"What seest thou?"
34698	But to how much does this so- called claim amount?
34698	But what conceivable motive could"Mark"have for omitting it?
34698	But what is the good of it all in the face of Leviticus on the one hand and of palæontology on the other?
34698	But what is the meaning of this expression?
34698	But when one tried to think it out, what in the world became of force considered as an objective entity?
34698	But why should a man be expected to call himself a"miscreant"or an"infidel"?
34698	But will any one tell me that death is"necessary"?
34698	By whom?
34698	By whose authority is the signification of that term defined?
34698	Can any other conclusion be drawn from the history of Abraham and Isaac?
34698	Can such a statement as this be seriously made in respect of any human being?
34698	Cosmas and Damianus?
34698	Did he think it,{ 426} at any subsequent time, worth while"to confer with flesh and blood,"or, in modern phrase, to re- examine the facts for himself?
34698	Does Abraham exhibit any indication of surprise when he receives the astounding order to sacrifice his son?
34698	Does Mr. Lilly suppose that I put aside"as unverifiable"all the truths of mathematics, of philology, of history?
34698	Does he hold by the one evangelist''s story, or by that of the two evangelists?
34698	Does he really mean to suggest that agnostics have a logic peculiar to themselves?
34698	Does not the action of Saul, on a famous occasion, involve exactly the same theological presuppositions?
34698	Does this mean that Seth resembled Adam only in a spiritual and figurative sense?
34698	For what is the adverse case?
34698	Has Nominalism, in any of its modifications, so completely won the day that Realism may be regarded as dead and buried without hope of resurrection?
34698	Has any one ever disputed the contention, thus solemnly enunciated, that the doctrine of evolution was not invented the day before yesterday?
34698	Has any one ever dreamed of claiming it as a modern innovation?
34698	Has any one then yet seen the production of negroes from a white stock, or_ vice versa_?
34698	Has it now a merely antiquarian interest?
34698	He next asked him how he knew it was the spirit of Toogoo Ahoo?
34698	How can I tell you_ how_ I knew it?
34698	How can he have founded the universal religion which was not heard of till twenty years after his death?
34698	How could its subsidence, by any possibility, be an affair of weeks and months?
34698	I am really grieved to be obliged to say that this third( or is it fourth?)
34698	I am sorry to trouble him further, but what does he mean by"it"?
34698	I rejoice to think now of the( then) Bishop''s cordial hail the first time we met after our little skirmish,"Well, is it to be peace or war?"
34698	If God did not walk in the Garden of Eden, how can we be assured that he spoke from Sinai?
34698	If Jonah''s three days''residence in the whale is not an"admitted reality,"how could it"warrant belief"in the"coming resurrection?"
34698	If divine authority is not here claimed for the twenty- fourth verse of the second chapter of Genesis, what is the value of language?
34698	If early views of religion and morality had not been imperfect, where had been the development?
34698	If it is not historically true that such and such things happened in Palestine eighteen centuries ago, what becomes of Christianity?
34698	If no Flood swept the careless people away, how is the warning of more worth than the cry of"Wolf"when there is no wolf?
34698	If symbolical visions and mythical creations had found no place in the early Oriental expression of Divine truth, where had been the development?
34698	If the latter is{ 9} to be accepted, or rejected, by private judgment, why not the former?
34698	If the story of the Fall is not the true record of an historical occurrence, what becomes of Pauline theology?
34698	If, he says, there are texts which seem to show that Jesus contemplated the evangelisation of the heathen:... Did not the Apostles hear our Lord?
34698	In what other way than by such an appeal to their experience could he so surely awaken in his audience the tragic pity and terror?
34698	Is he the kindly, peaceful Christ depicted in the Catacombs?
34698	Is it contained in the so- called Apostles''Creed?
34698	Is it not certain that the Apostles did not gather this truth from His teaching?
34698	Is it that contained in the Nicene and the Athanasian Creeds?
34698	Is such a thing even conceivable?
34698	Is there any known historical work which is throughout exactly true, or is there not?
34698	Is there"no relation to things social"in"mental conclusions"which affect men''s whole conception of life?
34698	It may be so, or it may not be so; but where is the evidence which would justify any one in making a positive assertion on the subject?
34698	Laban indignantly demands of his son- in- law,"Wherefore hast thou stolen my Elohim?"

34698	Might not there, however, be a suspension of a lower law by the intervention of a higher?
34698	Much astonished at this remark from a person who was supposed not to have seen the relics, Eginhard asked him how he knew that?
34698	Now what is a Christian?
34698	On what grounds can a reasonable man be asked to believe any more?
34698	Or can he be rightly represented by the bleeding ascetic, broken down by physical pain, of too many mediæval pictures?
34698	Or of Micah''s inquiry,"Will Jahveh be pleased with thousands of rams or with ten thousands of rivers of oil?"
34698	Really?
34698	Saul goes to this woman, who, after being assured of immunity, asks,"Whom shall I bring up to thee?"
34698	So if I am asked to call myself an"infidel,"I reply: To what doctrine do you ask me to be faithful?
34698	Still more, on the first day, when it is nothing but a flat cellular disk?
34698	Still the spectre remains invisible to Saul, for he asks,"What form is he of?"
34698	The plain answer to this question is, Why should anybody be called upon to say how he knows that which he does not know?
34698	The preacher asks,"Might not there be a suspension of a lower law by the intervention of a higher?"
34698	Then said Saul to his servant, But behold if we go, what shall we bring the man?
34698	To this the priest,"Whence art thou, then, if these are not thy parents?"
34698	Was Augustine heretical when he denied the actual historical truth of the record of the Creation?
34698	Was not the arch- humanist, Erasmus, fautor- in- chief of the Reformation, until he got frightened and basely deserted it?
34698	Was not the name of"Christian"first used to denote the converts to the doctrine promulgated by Paul and Barnabas at Antioch?
34698	Was not their chief,"James, the brother of the Lord,"reverenced alike by Sadducee, Pharisee, and Nazarene?
34698	Was that prince of agnostics, David Hume, particularly imbued with physical science?
34698	Were Gentile converts bound to obey the Law or not?
34698	What do we find when the accounts of the events in question, contained in the three Synoptic gospels, are compared together?
34698	What have we?
34698	What is the"entire question"which"arises"in a"narrowed form"upon"secular testimony"?
34698	What is to hinder our supposing that the organic creation is also a result of natural laws which are in like manner an expression of his will?
34698	What line of my writing can the Duke of Argyll produce which confounds the organic with the inorganic?
34698	What more intrinsic claim has the story of the Exodus than that of the Deluge, to belief?
34698	What, then, could be more natural than that a Chaldæan poet should seek for the incidents of a great catastrophe among such phenomena?
34698	What, then, was that labour of unsurpassed magnitude and excellence and immortal influence which Newton did perform?
34698	When Jesus spoke, as of a matter of fact, that"the Flood came and destroyed them all,"did he believe that the Deluge really took place, or not?
34698	Where are the secret conspirators against this tyranny, whom I am supposed to favour, and yet not have the courage to join openly?
34698	Who is to gainsay our ecclesiastical authority{ 475} here?
34698	Who shall or can forbid him?
34698	Who was it?
34698	Why are we to retain a corresponding fiction for the nervous organs?
34698	Why forget the angel who wrestled with Jacob, and, as the account suggests, somewhat overstepped the bounds of fair play, at the end of the struggle?
34698	Why not?

39713	Burali- Forti''s reasoning,I said,"does it not seem to you irreproachable?"
39713	What more do you want?
39713	Yes, I know; but then what good are you?
39713	( 2) Can we reduce to one and the same measure facts which transpire in different worlds?
39713	201 The Mind Dispelling Optical Illusions 202 Euclid not Necessary 202 Without Hypotheses, no Science 203 What Outcome?
39713	2º Once in possession of the concept of the mathematical continuum, is one safe from contradictions analogous to those which gave birth to it?
39713	A naturalist who never had studied the elephant except in the microscope, would he think he knew the animal adequately?
39713	After all, have we any other reason to believe in the existence of material objects?
39713	After what we have just said, is there still need to answer this objection?
39713	Among all these possible explanations, how make a choice for which the aid of experiment fails us?
39713	Among the terms proportional to the squares of the velocities, how distinguish those which come from_ T_ or from_ U_?
39713	Among these thousand routes opening before us, it is necessary to make a choice, at least provisional; in this choice, what shall guide us?
39713	And Newton''s law itself?
39713	And after that?
39713	And are such signals inconceivable, if we admit with Laplace that universal gravitation is transmitted a million times more rapidly than light?
39713	And besides, why do we speak of measuring?
39713	And does our ether really exist?
39713	And first of all, are they such uncompromising realists as has been said?
39713	And first what does this question mean?
39713	And first what should we understand by objectivity?
39713	And first, can we conserve the principles of relativity?
39713	And first, what is chance?
39713	And for these, then, what is the measure of their objectivity?
39713	And further: how is error possible in mathematics?
39713	And here a question arises: How can a demonstration not sufficiently rigorous for the analyst suffice for the physicist?
39713	And how is this deduction made?
39713	And if it can not, how dare we reason about it?
39713	And if the law should one day be found false?
39713	And if there are, how recognize them?
39713	And if there were not this accord, should we not have also the right to say experience had proven the falsity of the non- Euclidean geometry?
39713	And if we wish to combat them, which should be favored?
39713	And in mathematics?
39713	And inversely, if the experiment succeeds, shall we believe that we have demonstrated all the hypotheses at once?
39713	And now, why have I entitled this chapter_ French Geodesy_?
39713	And on the other hand what means the phrase''very complex''?
39713	And then a question presents itself: among all these quantities measured experimentally, which shall we choose to represent the parameters_ q_?
39713	And then comes a question: Is not this amorphous continuum, that our analysis has allowed to survive, a form imposed upon our sensibility?
39713	And then when we ask: Can one imagine non- Euclidean space?
39713	And then, has one the right to say that the scientist creates the scientific fact?
39713	And this convention of language once adopted, when I shall be asked: Is it such an hour?
39713	And to return to America, is not the_ Monist_ published at Chicago, that review which even to us seems bold and yet which finds readers?
39713	And to- day, a century and a half after the victory of the Newtonians, think you geodesy has nothing more to teach us?
39713	And what gives us the right to make this hypothesis?
39713	And what group?
39713	And what is the null class?
39713	And why are they more noteworthy?
39713	And why do we say this transportation is effected without deformation?
39713	And why may this probability be regarded as constant within a small interval?
39713	And why?
39713	And yet if we accept Gouy''s ideas on the Brownian movement, does not the microscope seem on the point of showing us something analogous?
39713	And yet is this legitimate, if the unknown be the simple and the known the complex?
39713	And yet, in this case, would it have any meaning, to say the earth turns round?
39713	And yet, think you the partisans of the kinetic theory are adversaries of determinism?
39713	And, in this latter case, do we not risk marring everything?
39713	And, this group chosen, which of its sub- groups shall we take to characterize a point of space?
39713	And, yet, would it not be more logical in remaining silent?
39713	Another thing: whence does space get its quantitative character?
39713	Are not appearances against him?
39713	Are the chances that these circles will cover a great number of times the celestial sphere?
39713	Are the differential equations of the problem too simple for us to apply the laws of chance?
39713	Are the law of acceleration, the rule of the composition of forces then only arbitrary conventions?
39713	Are there more points in space than points in a plane?
39713	Are these mechanical actions too small to be measured, or are they accessible to experiment?
39713	Are they absolutely refractory, I do not say to metaphysic, but at least to everything metaphysical?
39713	Are they disguised conventions?
39713	Are they experimental verities?
39713	Are they imposed on us by logic?
39713	Are they obtainable by deductive reasoning?
39713	Are they synthetic_ a priori_ judgments, as Kant said?
39713	Are they the characteristics of a form imposed either upon our sensibility or upon our understanding?
39713	Are they then arbitrary?
39713	Are we absolutely sure they are unimportant?
39713	Are we on the eve of a second crisis?
39713	Because it is''lived,''that is, because we love it and believe in it?
39713	Besides how do we know whether this law, true for so many centuries, will still be true next year?
39713	Besides, do you think they have always marched step by step with no vision of the goal they wished to attain?
39713	But I can understand also: Will such a chemical effect happen?
39713	But am I sure the body_ P_ has retained the same weight when I have transported it from the first body to the second?
39713	But are there any simple facts?
39713	But at what moment should we stop?
39713	But by what right do we consider as equal these two figures which the Euclidean geometers call two circles with the same radius?
39713	But can we not then pass over immediately to the goal?
39713	But can we regret that earthly paradise where man brute- like was really immortal in knowing not that he must die?
39713	But could I not just as well say: The points which turn up on the two dice can form 6 × 7/2= 21 different combinations?
39713	But could not experience have given a contrary result?
39713	But did not M. LeRoy make it still too great?
39713	But do you think mathematics has attained absolute rigor without making any sacrifice?
39713	But even stopping short of such models, does he not already expose himself to the same danger?
39713	But even this, what does it mean?
39713	But for that how does he proceed?
39713	But has any one ever experimented on bodies withdrawn from the action of every force?
39713	But has even this any meaning?
39713	But have we the right to admit the hypothesis of central forces?
39713	But he means something more; and we think we understand it because we think we know what impact is in itself; why?
39713	But how can it be possible that there are several parameters whose variations are independent?
39713	But how do we decide that this object is more noteworthy?
39713	But how does one perceive these analogies and these differences?
39713	But how generalize?
39713	But how has he not understood that what remained to do was not less considerable and would be not less profitable?
39713	But how have the stars composing it reached all at the same time adult age, an age so briefly to endure?
39713	But how is this prediction made?
39713	But how many different ideas are hidden under this same word?
39713	But how measure force, or mass?
39713	But how much after?
39713	But how much heat would thus be produced?
39713	But how reconcile that with what we have said above on the absence of a noteworthy proportion of dark matter?
39713	But how shall we ascertain experimentally whether it belongs to this or that concrete object?
39713	But how shall we justify it in the presence of discoveries that show us every day new details that are richer and more complex?
39713	But how shall we recognize that the antecedents_ A_ and_ A''_ are''slightly different''?
39713	But how should electricity in its turn enter into the general unity, how should it be reduced to the universal mechanism?
39713	But if truth be the sole aim worth pursuing, may we hope to attain it?
39713	But in the end the Copernicus would come-- how?
39713	But is it always needful to say it so many times?
39713	But is it at least logic, or, better, is it correct?
39713	But is that true?
39713	But is the art of sound reasoning not also a precious thing, which the professor of mathematics ought before all to cultivate?
39713	But is this definition altogether satisfactory?
39713	But may not this assemblage be compared to that of the molecules of a gas, whose properties the kinetic theory of gases has made known to us?
39713	But of what importance is that?
39713	But once equal, if asked about the anterior state, what can we answer?
39713	But still more; how define energy itself?
39713	But then doubtless men can no longer live and must give place to other beings-- should I say far smaller or far larger?
39713	But then why have we this right?
39713	But then, if experiment is everything, what place will remain for mathematical physics?
39713	But then, what have we gained by this stroke?
39713	But then, why is the principle true only if the motion of the movable axes is rectilinear and uniform?
39713	But then, why not say the mass is the quotient of the force by the acceleration?
39713	But this hypothesis is improbable; why, in fact, would all the corpuscles of the same mass take always the same velocity?
39713	But this is not enough; who does not feel that this is still to leave to chance too great a rôle?
39713	But this simplicity being only apparent, will the ground be firm enough?
39713	But to answer the question: Is this theorem true?
39713	But to know this is to know something and then why tell us we can know nothing?
39713	But we always meet again the same difficulty; at what precise moment does it begin to be too much so?
39713	But what could they deduce from it?
39713	But what does that mean?
39713	But what does this signify?
39713	But what good is it?
39713	But what is chance?
39713	But what is the nature of these rules?
39713	But whence came the error of this philosopher?
39713	But whence can come to us this revelation, if not from the accord of a theory with experiment?
39713	But where is the simple fact?
39713	But why assemble these elements in this way when a thousand other combinations were possible?
39713	But why?
39713	But why?
39713	But why?
39713	But, after all, what have we done?
39713	But, first, what do you understand by geometric properties of the bodies?
39713	But, one will say, if raw experience can not legitimatize reasoning by recurrence, is it so of experiment aided by induction?
39713	By operating upon the canal rays as Kaufmann did upon the[ beta] rays?
39713	By what mechanism?
39713	By what right do we strive to put them into the same mold, to measure them by the same standard?
39713	CHAPTER III MATHEMATICS AND LOGIC INTRODUCTION Can mathematics be reduced to logic without having to appeal to principles peculiar to mathematics?

39713	Can it even be defined?
39713	Can it return of itself?
39713	Can logic give it to us?
39713	Can one apply to all matter what has been proved only for such light corpuscles, which are a mere emanation of matter and perhaps not true matter?
39713	Can science teach us the true relations of things?
39713	Can that be regarded as a true solution?
39713	Can the straight line be defined?
39713	Can this demonstration be deduced from experiments or from_ a priori_ considerations?
39713	Can this law be verified by experiment?
39713	Can we not be content with just the bare experiment?
39713	Can we show this deformation?
39713	Can we subscribe to this conclusive condemnation?
39713	Can we without danger act as if it were?
39713	Complex causes we have said produce a blend more and more intimate, but after how long a time will this blend satisfy us?
39713	Consequently, how distinguish the two parts of energy?
39713	Considering the slight density of the milky way, is it the image of gaseous matter or of radiant matter?
39713	Could Galileo and the Grand Inquisitor, to settle the matter, appeal to the witness of their senses?
39713	Could it be otherwise?
39713	Could we recognize with a little attention that this pure intuition itself could not do without the aid of the senses?
39713	Do we find it in nature, or do we ourselves introduce it there?
39713	Do we say that it is impossible for us to understand anything about this machine so long as we are not permitted to take it to pieces?
39713	Do you think American geometers are concerned only about applications?
39713	Do you think that in such a world we should be what we are?
39713	Do you think the moralists themselves are irreproachable when they come down from their pedestal?
39713	Do you think the second phase could have come into existence without the first?
39713	Does it make us understand its unity and harmony?
39713	Does it mean that we_ represent_ to ourselves external objects in geometric space?
39713	Does the earth rotate?
39713	Does the harmony the human intelligence thinks it discovers in nature exist outside of this intelligence?
39713	Does the mathematical method proceed from the particular to the general, and, if so, how then can it be called deductive?
39713	Does this form exist, or, if you choose, can we represent to ourselves space of more than three dimensions?
39713	Does this mean that nothing is left of this objection of the philosophers?
39713	Does this mean that our most legitimate, most imperative aspiration is at the same time the most vain?
39713	Does this mean that the definition guarantees, as it should, the existence of the object defined?
39713	Does this mean that these atoms or these cells constitute reality, or rather the sole reality?
39713	Does this mean the work of Fresnel was in vain?
39713	Doubtless we should first bend our efforts to assuage human suffering, but why?
39713	Even if they had entirely succeeded, would the Kantians be finally condemned to silence?
39713	Experiments have been made which should have disclosed the terms of the first order; the results have been negative; could that be by chance?
39713	For subtraction it is quite otherwise; it may be logically defined as the operation inverse to addition; but should we begin in that way?
39713	From this rapid exposition, what shall we conclude?
39713	Has chance thus defined, in so far as this is possible, objectivity?
39713	Has not M. de Cyon said that the Japanese mice, having only two pair of semicircular canals, believe that space is two- dimensional?
39713	Has one the right to give this extension to the meaning of the word_ logic_?
39713	Has one the right, therefore, to say he knows the distance between two points?
39713	Has probability been defined?
39713	Has science any place for such theories?
39713	Has the discarded hypothesis, then, been barren?
39713	Has this a meaning, and if so what?
39713	Has this word the same meaning for all the world?
39713	Have I the right to believe this?
39713	Have the peoples whose ideal most conformed to their highest interest exterminated the others and taken their place?
39713	Have these relations an objective value?
39713	Have we finally attained absolute rigor?
39713	Have we not just seen that it is by astronomy that, to speak his language, humanity has passed from the theological to the positive state?
39713	Have we the right to reason in this way?
39713	Have we the right, for instance, to enunciate Newton''s law?
39713	He has set himself questions like these: Are there more points in space than whole numbers?
39713	How am I led to regard these two series_ S_ and_ S''''_ as corresponding to the same displacement_ AB_?
39713	How are we led thereto?
39713	How are we led to conclude thence that they are identical?
39713	How can a law become a principle?
39713	How can intuition deceive us on this point?
39713	How can that be?
39713	How can we estimate the value of the new weapon thus won?
39713	How can we explain the very singular appearances presented by the spiral nebulæ, which are too regular and too constant to be due to chance?
39713	How can we explain this apparent contradiction?
39713	How can we know that two possible cases are equally probable?
39713	How could he be so short- sighted?
39713	How could he do it if we should leave between instruments and objects the deep chasm hollowed out by the logicians?
39713	How could that be, if time were not a form pre- existent in our minds?
39713	How could they have believed that motion stops when the cause which gave birth to it ceases?
39713	How could we know there were empty compartments, if these compartments were revealed to us only by their content?
39713	How define this group then without moving some solids?
39713	How do they accomplish it?

39713	How shall we even reconcile it with the belief in the unity of nature?
39713	How should the equations of mathematical physics be treated?
39713	How should we picture a receptacle filled with gas?
39713	How so?
39713	How then am I led to distinguish them?
39713	How then choose the interesting fact, which is that which begins again?
39713	How then could we have been led to distinguish between the two?
39713	How then do they choose between the facts of nature?
39713	How then shall we recognize the equivalence of these two series?
39713	How was the order of the universe understood by the ancients; for instance, by Pythagoras, Plato or Aristotle?
39713	How was this triumph obtained?
39713	How, under these conditions, can we make out in this total mass the part of the real mass and that of the fictitious electromagnetic mass?
39713	How?
39713	However, because no painter has made a perfect portrait, should we conclude that the best painting is not to paint?
39713	I am asked: Did the eclipse happen at the hour predicted?
39713	I can understand that that means: Will such a mechanical effect happen?
39713	I have shown above by examples that the first two can not give us certainty; but who will seriously doubt the third, who will doubt arithmetic?
39713	I repeat my question: Do you think that in such a world we should be what we are?
39713	I should like to know who was to prevent him, and can it be said a thing does not exist, when we have called it[ Omega]?"
39713	I will explain myself; how did the ancients understand law?
39713	III I once said no to this question:[12] should our reply be modified by the recent works?
39713	II_ Comparison with Astronomic Observations_ Can the preceding theories be reconciled with astronomic observations?
39713	IV Why now have all these spaces three dimensions?
39713	If Larmor has failed, as it seems to me he has, does that mean that a mechanical explanation is impossible?
39713	If a modern physicist studies a new phenomenon, and if he discovers its law Tuesday, would he have said Monday that this phenomenon was fortuitous?
39713	If it was perceived that the concordance of the two effects, mechanical and chemical, is not constant?
39713	If it were ruled by caprice, what could prove to us it was not ruled by chance?
39713	If it were so, how should the Greeks have failed to recognize it?
39713	If not, why had this combination more right to exist than all the others?
39713	If science did not succeed, it could not serve as rule of action; whence would it get its value?
39713	If the coefficient of inertia is not constant, can the attracting mass be?
39713	If there is no absolute space, can one turn without turning in reference to something else?
39713	If there is no longer any mass, what becomes of Newton''s law?
39713	If therefore, during an eclipse, it is asked: Is it growing dark?
39713	If they deceived themselves, do we not likewise cheat ourselves?
39713	If this is only an illusion, why is this illusion so tenacious?
39713	If this science is deductive only in appearance, whence does it derive that perfect rigor no one dreams of doubting?
39713	If we construct a theory based on a number of hypotheses, and if experiment condemns it, which of our premises is it necessary to change?
39713	If you put the question to me: Is such a fact true?
39713	If, then, experiment confirms his conclusions, will he think that he has demonstrated, for instance, the real existence of atoms?
39713	In a word, is not the subliminal self superior to the conscious self?
39713	In fact, how will a gaseous mass let loose in the void act, if its elements attract one another according to Newton''s law?
39713	In fact, what is mathematical creation?
39713	In how far is it exact?
39713	In other words, do we mean that we must be sure not to meet contradictions, on condition of agreeing to stop just when we are about to encounter one?
39713	In other words, should we constrain the young people to change the nature of their minds?
39713	In presence of this general collapse of the principles, what attitude will mathematical physics take?
39713	In the applications we have to make of these three concepts, do they present themselves to us as defined by these three postulates?
39713	In the edifices built up by our masters, of what use to admire the work of the mason if we can not comprehend the plan of the architect?
39713	In the first place, what instrument have we at our disposal for this conquest?
39713	In the measurements of which we speak in the preceding section, what is it we determine in measuring the two deviations?
39713	In this multitude how shall we choose those which are worthy to fix our attention?
39713	In what measure does the mind get this satisfaction and why is it not content with it?
39713	Is Mr. Russell preparing to show that one at least of the two contradictory reasonings has transgressed the code?
39713	Is experience the source of geometry?
39713	Is is really deductive, as is commonly supposed?
39713	Is it a simple chance which confers this privilege?
39713	Is it by caprice?
39713	Is it certain it will never be contradicted by experiment?
39713	Is it certain our imaginary astronomers would do the same?
39713	Is it desired that this common part of the enunciations be expressible in words?
39713	Is it impossible that experiment may some day contradict our postulate?
39713	Is it impossible to conceive physical phenomena, the mechanical phenomena, for example, otherwise than in space of three dimensions?
39713	Is it likely that it is able to form all the possible combinations, whose number would frighten the imagination?
39713	Is it meant that we could not experimentally demonstrate Euclid''s postulate, but that our ancestors have been able to do it?
39713	Is it not as if one strove to measure length with a gram or weight with a meter?
39713	Is it not evident that from the principle so understood we could no longer infer anything?
39713	Is it possible to fulfill so many opposing conditions?
39713	Is it possible to reconcile it with the principle of the conservation of energy?
39713	Is it the radius of the disc?
39713	Is it the same with two physical facts?
39713	Is it the thickness?
39713	Is it this which Russell calls the''zigzaginess''?
39713	Is it thought that ordinary language by aid of which are expressed the facts of daily life is exempt from ambiguity?
39713	Is it true they afford means of proving the principle of complete induction without any appeal to intuition?
39713	Is it well to let them know this is only approximative?
39713	Is its orientation about to be modified?
39713	Is mathematical analysis, then, whose principal object is the study of these empty frames, only a vain play of the mind?
39713	Is nature governed by caprice, or does harmony rule there?
39713	Is not chance the antithesis of all law?"
39713	Is not human intelligence, more specifically the intelligence of the scientist, susceptible of infinite variation?
39713	Is not my present nearer my past of yesterday than the present of Sirius?
39713	Is not the very spectrum of the spark, in which we recognize the lines of the metal of the electrode, a proof of it?
39713	Is not this the means of escaping the ridicule that we foresee?
39713	Is space revealed to us by our senses?
39713	Is that not something of a paradox?
39713	Is the abyss which separates them less profound than it at first appeared?
39713	Is the milky way thus constituted truly the image of a gas properly so called?
39713	Is the principle of inertia, which is not an_ a priori_ truth, therefore an experimental fact?
39713	Is there a law of errors?
39713	Is there in nature some familiar object which is so to speak the rough and vague image of it?
39713	Is there something to change in all that when we pass to the following stages?
39713	Is this a simple illusion of ours, or are there cases where this way of thinking is legitimate?
39713	Is this a third way of conceiving chance?
39713	Is this a truth imposed_ a priori_ upon the mind?
39713	Is this a useless luxury?
39713	Is this a verifiable fact?
39713	Is this affirmative answer forced upon us by the facts I have just given?
39713	Is this apparent contiguity a mere effect of chance?
39713	Is this because it is too remote from all other bodies to experience any appreciable action from them?
39713	Is this enough?
39713	Is this evolution ended?
39713	Is this hypothesis rigorously exact?
39713	Is this not enough to show they are capable of making ascensions otherwise than in a captive balloon?
39713	Is this not for us mathematicians in a way a professional procedure?
39713	Is this possible in particular when it is a question of giving a definition?
39713	Is this the case here?
39713	Is this then a question of method?
39713	Is this to say that the principle has no meaning and vanishes in a tautology?
39713	Is this way of looking at it legitimate?
39713	It is doubtless something intermediate; but what can we say then of the thickness itself, or of the radius of the disc?
39713	It is evident from the first that systematic errors can not satisfy Gauss''s law; but do the accidental errors satisfy it?
39713	It is useless to seek to change anything of that, and besides would it be desirable?
39713	It may be asked, for instance, what is the present distribution of the minor planets?
39713	May we not fear lest some day a new experiment should come to falsify the law in some domain of physics?
39713	Might it not happen that it can accord with experience only by violating the principle of sufficient reason or that of the relativity of space?
39713	Might not new experiments some day lead us to modify or even to abandon them?
39713	Might there not be an abrupt fall of potential in the neighborhood of one of the armatures, of the negative armature, for example?
39713	Moreover, do we not often invoke what Bertrand calls the laws of chance, to predict a phenomenon?
39713	Must geometry be regarded both as a branch of kinematics and as a branch of optics?
39713	Must not this existence be established, in order that the existence of the class of which it is a part may be deduced?
39713	Must we believe that the evolution of the milky way began when the matter was still dark?
39713	Must we combat them?
39713	Must we continue to use the method of least squares?
39713	Must we lament this?
39713	Must we show those content with the pure logic that they have seen only one side of the matter?
39713	Must we therefore translate as follows?
39713	Must we use them?
39713	Must we, therefore, abandon science and study only morals?
39713	Need I also recall that M. Hermite obtained a surprising advantage from the introduction of continuous variables into the theory of numbers?
39713	Need I point out that the fall of Lavoisier''s principle involves that of Newton''s?
39713	Need I recall that thus have been made all the important discoveries?
39713	Need we add that mathematicians themselves are not infallible?
39713	No one doubts it; but whence comes this confidence?
39713	Nor may you ask: Does the infallibility of arithmetic prevent errors in addition?
39713	Now can we affirm that the hypotheses I have just made are absurd?
39713	Now how do we know that this continuum of displacements has six dimensions?
39713	Now on what condition is the use of hypothesis without danger?
39713	Now what do we see?
39713	Now what is science?
39713	Now what is this creed?
39713	Now when we say that the Euclidean motions are the_ true_ motions without deformation, what do we mean?
39713	Now why is the first method of enumerating the possible cases more legitimate than the second?
39713	Now, what do we see?
39713	Of these two inverse tendencies, which seem to triumph turn about, which will win?
39713	On the other hand, if the principles of mechanics are only of experimental origin, are they not therefore only approximate and provisional?
39713	On the other hand, what happens with regard to the straight line?
39713	On what then could be based experiments which should serve as foundation for geometry?
39713	One could at most have said to us:''Your fillips are doubtless legitimate, but you abuse them; why move the exterior objects so often?''
39713	Only a privileged few are called to enjoy it fully, it is true, but is not this the case for all the noblest arts?
39713	Only, is the compensation perfect?
39713	Or again that every body if nothing prevents, will move in a circle, the noblest of motions?
39713	Or can we, despite all, approach truth on some side?
39713	Or further, what criterion will enable me to apprehend this?
39713	Or is there here a play of evolution and natural selection?
39713	Or is this action by so much the less as the medium is less refractive and more rarefied, becoming null in the void?
39713	Or need we say to those not so cheaply satisfied that what they demand is not necessary?
39713	Or rather what is the probable value of the sine of the longitude at the instant_ t_, that is to say of sin(_ at_+_ b_)?
39713	Or, perhaps, does the apparent correspond to a real contiguity?
39713	Our body is formed of cells, and the cells of atoms; are these cells and these atoms then all the reality of the human body?
39713	PART III THE OBJECTIVE VALUE OF SCIENCE CHAPTER X IS SCIENCE ARTIFICIAL?
39713	Pardon, can you not imagine that the door opens, or that two of these walls separate?
39713	Probability opposed to certainty is what we do not know, and how can we calculate what we do not know?
39713	Scarcely fifteen years ago was there anything more ridiculous, more naïvely antiquated, than Coulomb''s fluids?
39713	Shall I recall to you how it was in its turn thrown into discredit?
39713	Shall we believe that with one single equation we have determined several unknowns?
39713	Shall we ever arrive at that?
39713	Shall we know then what is a point thus defined by its relative position with regard to ourselves?
39713	Shall we let ourselves be guided solely by our caprice?
39713	Shall we say that if we introduce others, of which we are fully conscious, we shall only aggravate the evil?
39713	Shall we say that the first has been useless?
39713	Shall we then admit that the enunciations of all those theorems which fill so many volumes are nothing but devious ways of saying_ A_ is_ A_?
39713	Shall we think God, contemplating his work, feels the same sensations as we in watching a billiard match?
39713	Should each therefore decide according to his temperament, the conservatives going to one side and the lovers of the new to the other?
39713	Should we abandon one of the two hypotheses, and which?
39713	Should we here understand by finite number every number to which by definition the principle of induction applies?
39713	Should we not always have been able to justify these fillips by the same reasons?
39713	Should we retain the classic definition of parallels and say parallels are two coplanar straights which do not meet, however far they be prolonged?
39713	Should we simply deduce all the consequences and regard them as intangible realities?
39713	Should we therefore conclude that the axioms of geometry are experimental verities?
39713	Should your rules be followed blindly?
39713	Since several geometries are possible, is it certain ours is the true one?
39713	So much for the rotation of the earth upon itself; what shall we say of its revolution around the sun?
39713	So that to ask what geometry it is proper to adopt is to ask, to what line is it proper to give the name straight?
39713	So we shall put the question otherwise; can geodesy aid us the better to know nature?
39713	So what must we conclude?
39713	Suppose we find the ray of light does not satisfy Euclid''s postulate( for example by showing that a star has a negative parallax), what shall we do?
39713	THE IMPLICIT AXIOMS.--Are the axioms explicitly enunciated in our treatises the sole foundations of geometry?
39713	That granted, what do we do?
39713	That is an experimental truth, but it can not be invalidated by experience; in fact, what would a more precise experiment teach us?
39713	That means: Are these relations the same for all?
39713	That supposes the field uniform; is this certain?
39713	That would be easy, I have said, but that would be rather long; and would it not be a little superficial?
39713	The English are right, that goes without saying; but how could the other method have been persisted in so long?
39713	The engineer should receive a complete mathematical education, but for what should it serve him?
39713	The example ordinarily cited is that of a ball rolling a very long time on a marble table; but why do we say it is subjected to no force?
39713	The experimenter puts to nature a question: Is it this or that?
39713	The nominalist attitude is justified only when it is convenient; when is it so?
39713	The principle is intact, but thenceforth of what use is it?
39713	The rule of tric- trac is indeed a rule of action like science, but does any one think the comparison just and not see the difference?
39713	The rules of perfect logic, are they the whole of mathematics?
39713	The way these cells are arranged, whence results the unity of the individual, is it not also a reality and much more interesting?
39713	Then does the scientist create science?
39713	Then what are we to think of that question: Is the Euclidean geometry true?
39713	Then what happens?
39713	There is connection between the warning_ A1_ and the parry_ B1_, this is an internal property of our intelligence; but why this connection?
39713	There is no difficulty as to_ U_, but can_ T_ be regarded as the_ vis viva_ of a material system?
39713	There is the event, what is the cause?
39713	There steeples were not lacking: but to install oneself in them with mysterious and perhaps diabolic instruments, was it not sacrilege?
39713	Therefore two difficulties:( 1) Can we transform psychologic time, which is qualitative, into a quantitative time?
39713	Therefore, when we ask what is the objective value of science, that does not mean: Does science teach us the true nature of things?
39713	These principles on which we have built all, are they about to crumble away in their turn?
39713	This it is that we are about to consider, and we shall put the question in these terms: When we say that space has three dimensions, what do we mean?
39713	Thus all seems arranged, but are all the doubts dissipated?
39713	Thus would not the horse harnessed to his treadmill refuse to go, were his eyes not bandaged?
39713	To minds so unlike can the mathematical theorems themselves appear in the same light?
39713	To what need does it respond?
39713	To- day, what do we see?
39713	Truth which is not the same for all, is it truth?
39713	Two psychological phenomena happen in two different consciousnesses; when I say they are simultaneous, what do I mean?
39713	Under these conditions, how imagine a sieve capable of applying them mechanically?
39713	Upon what condition will this latter definition, which plays an essential rôle in Whitehead''s proof, be''predicative''and consequently acceptable?
39713	V We seek reality, but what is reality?
39713	VII_ The True Solution_ What choice ought we to make among these different theories?
39713	VI_ Zigzag Theory and No- class Theory_ What is Mr. Russell''s attitude in presence of these contradictions?
39713	Was it merely because I do not speak the Peanian with enough eloquence?
39713	Was that to reject it?
39713	Was the Academy wrong?
39713	We say now_ post hoc, ergo propter hoc_; now_ propter hoc, ergo post hoc_; shall we escape from this vicious circle?
39713	Well, is it not a great advance to have distinguished what long was wrongly confused?
39713	Well, now, has this generalized law of inertia been verified by experiment, or can it be?
39713	What are the axes to which we naturally refer the_ extended space_?
39713	What are the problems it is led to set itself?
39713	What are these''things''?
39713	What are we to understand by that?
39713	What assurance is there that a thing we think simple does not hide a dreadful complexity?
39713	What authorizes me so to do?
39713	What can they do in this sense?
39713	What can this advantage be?
39713	What difference is there then between the statement of a fact in the rough and the statement of a scientific fact?
39713	What do I say?
39713	What do we do when we wish to apply the calculus of probabilities to such a question?
39713	What do we mean by_ sufficiently near_?
39713	What does it matter then whether the simplicity be real, or whether it covers a complex reality?
39713	What does that mean?
39713	What does that mean?
39713	What does that mean?
39713	What does that mean?
39713	What does that prove?
39713	What does that prove?
39713	What does the celebrated German geometer do?

39713	What happens now if we have recourse to some instrument to supplement the feebleness of our senses, if, for example, we make use of a microscope?
39713	What happens then according to the theory?
39713	What happens then?
39713	What happens then?
39713	What has experimental physics to do with such an aid, one which seems useless and perhaps even dangerous?
39713	What has it to do with the method of the physical sciences?

39713	When I say, from noon to one the same time passes as from two to three, what meaning has this affirmation?
39713	When it is said then that we''localize''such and such an object at such and such a point of space, what does it mean?
