The principles of that religion are revealed in the monitions of our normal instincts, and have never been wholly effaced from the soul of man, but for long a...

"Whatever is natural is wrong," was for centuries the shibboleth of our spiritual taskmasters, and that doctrine has borne its fruit in the reckless disregard of our natural intuitions. The shocking taste of a poisonous weed or liquid is generally accepted as a prima facie proof of its wholesomeness, and many millions of acres, plowed and harrowed with highly improved apparatus, are wasted on the production of not only useless but positively pernicious harvests. Our prohibition or...

"The organism of the human body is a self-regulating apparatus. If a grain of caustic potash irritates the nerves of the palate, the salivary glands try to remove it by an increased secretion. The eye would wash it off by an immediate flow of tears. A larger quantity of the same substance could be swallowed only under the protest of the fauces, and the digestive organs would soon find means to eject it. The bronchial tubes promptly react against the obtrusion of foreign substances. The sti...

This book deals with the Physical Geography of the West Indies. (With illustrations).“The study of the geographical distribution of plants and animals has revealed facts almost as enigmatical as the origin of life itself.... The first Spanish explorers of the Antilles were, in fact, so amazed at the apparently complete absence of quadrupeds that their only explanation was a conjecture that the beasts of the forest must have been exterminated by order of some native potentate, perha...

On the 17th of May 1825, the Regulus sailed from the Cove of Cork, carrying 24 men, 25 women and 108 children from some of the most distressed districts in the south of Ireland. These people were transported, at Government expense, as part of an experimental emigration that settled over 2000 Irish paupers in the backwoods of Upper Canada. Responsibility for the success of this enterprise fell to Peter Robinson (1785 – 1838), who had conducted a similar experiment on a smaller scale in 1823. R...
