llimi sclentlllc Interest. Donald
It Is most gratifying to us to nil of us who
believe lu the bcuellclnl results upon huinnn
Ufa coufrrrcd by the diffusion of sclentlllc
knowledge, ns nil iiicinlsrs of this great asno
elation must do to (liid that their work and
the object of their meeting aro so highly ap
preciated by such a wide circle as that repio
touted by the signatories to this address. It
Is, howover, particularly gratifying to us to
find such n locognltlnn where, crhaM, nt
first slglit, we might hardly havo expected It
of the ndvnutagi-s of puro or n lis tract
science, njiart from Its practical application
to tho mnlerlnl welfare of mankind.
You have recognized what Is certainly
known to those who have followed mostcloso
ly thn history of science, but what Is not gen
erally known or appreciated by tho multl
twit namely, that nearly all tho marvelous
benefits which havo lieeu conferretl on man
by tho application of sclentlllc discovery or
kcleutllla knowledge have been tho result of
tho discoveries of philosophers who are pur
suing kuowlwlxo wholly for its own sako
without any Iiok of reward, without any
liojwof its Is'iielltlug, Hrhnpi, themsolves or
othcre, nnd wry often nmld tho Indlffcronco,
tho neglect, nnd even tho scorn of their con
temjiornrlcs. The mrtlctilnr branch of sci
enco which 1 have tho honor of representing
Is, at first sight, very llttlo sccially connect
ed with the general welwaro of man, and Is
looked iiM)u by many as llttlo moro than idle
peculation or curiosity
1 well remember it Is certainly many
years ago now ono who, moro than any one
ohm living In this country, has advanced that
branch of sclenco Professor Huxloy, In a
lecture which ho delivered nt tho Royal Instl
tutlou, saying tho common Idea of n natural
1st was "That dirty man poking about ths
seashore, with n net lu ono hand and n bottle
In tho other, a iverfectly Innocent and harm
less Individual, but a very useless ono. Well,
1 may say thnt that description was made
somo thirty yearn ogo, beforo Professor Hux
ley himself had done so much to rnlso tho
character of naturalists ami natural history
in this country, yet It still hohls good with
many nt tho present time.
ilut you must recollect, however, thnt the
researches of naturalists of that tyo, men
who hnvo occupied themselves lu nearly ob
serving the ways and habits and studying the
structuro of animals of n low typo or organi
sation havo produced already marvelous re
sults uiKin tho liniinlucKs nnd welfnro of man
kind. Through researches of this kind wo are
getting only now to tlio causes and prevention
of disease which, when further ndvnncwl
for they are only beginning now will, I have
no doubt, lew! to an enormous saving of
health and of llfo. Moreover, through tho re
searches of such naturalists, greater results
till havo been produced.
They hu o produced effects upon our mode
of thinking on many subjects on our rela
tions to each other nnd to tho uulverso ef
fects tho end of which wo hardly sw at pros
Hit. And thoy have taught us ono great lo
on, ono that I alluded to lu tho address
which I had tho honor of giving hero the
other night namely, that It Is a great prln
clplu of tiaturo that progress In living in
animal anil plant iiaturo at all ovonts has
boon duo In great meusuio to tho principle
which Darwin most popularized, If ho did not
llrst enunciate, which ho, at all events,
brought Into tho condition In which wo now
know it that of tho strugglo for existence
ami tho survival of tho fittest.
Now, It Is u law in nature that thero should
bo a certain amount of Individual differences
or vmlatiuns lu tho different animals and
plants, ami that tho progress from tho lower
to tho nlgher forms of animals and plants
has lieeu duo to tho opiortunlty uf thoso in
dividuals who nro n llttlo siiierlor lu somo
reccts to their fellows of asserting thnt su
periority, of continuing to live, nnd of prop
agating as an Inheritance that superiority
That law- cstablishwl In nature is, 1 beliovo,
equally applicable to ourselves; and tills U
tho message w hlch puro and nbstract biologi
cal research has sent to help us on In somo of
tho commonest problems of human life,
Tho lesson of it is this that there is always
a certain amount of variability, that thero U
no such thing as equality equality in (.lowers
of work, equality in owers of cmlurauco, or
equality in tho powers of men fordoing great
things lu tho world, and that progress do
ponds on giving full liberty to that superior
ity, wherever it asserts Itself, having full
fling. Now, supposing this law did not exist
in tho animal kingdom, Instead of the world
being filled with all tho diversity und beauty
which It now (lossesses, everything would
havo boon in tho condition of slimy (lolyps at
tho bottom of tho sea, and wo should all still
bo in tlio condition of Hint chipping savages.
I will leuvo It to you to apply to j ourselves
In j our own social condition nml social life
tho application of that law I w ill not press
it any further at present, but leave you to
think It out afterwards. It means that there
should bo no attempt what over to keep down
tho canicitlcs of tho superior to the level of
tho Inferior Any man who gets a little rlso
above his fellows helps on tho progress of the
world am! brings all tho others on with him.

"Berry is not a man who would bo noticed

with his shoulders bent and his eyes on tho

powerful, thick sot man of about medium

pleasant ono at tho lint glance, though u(on
