CREATION BY EVOLUTION
meets this call so surely as evolution does. Among these natural occurrences nothing is so difficult to understand, except from the evolutionary standpoint, as vestigial organs. These organs are really signs of the past; they afford as indisputable a proof of the correctness of the evolutionary view as can reasonably be expected.

“Darwin himself would have turned his back on that theory (Evolution) if one single fact could have been produced in favor of the hypothesis of immutability, special creation, or supernatural agency. No such fact was forthcoming in his time, nor has any such fact been brought to light since.”—Dorsey.
Many kinds of animals and plants exist to-day that show no records, and many kinds that do not exist to-day have left their records, in the rocks. If the rocks tell a true story, the story they tell is Evolution.—Editor.
