Geology; Paleontology; Géologie; Paléontologie. 342 PRE'DETERMINATION IN NATURE I force just as much as in natural laws ; and that while God has made everything beautiful in its time He has also made every- thing beautiful and useful in some sense for all time. With all this, whil • the great principles and modes of operation remain unchanged, there is ample scope for development, modification and adaptation to new ends, without deviation from essential properties and characters. It is a wise and thoughtful phuosophy which can distinguish what is fixed and unchangeable from that which is fluctuating and capable of development. Until this distinction is fully understood, we may expect one-sided views and faulty generalizations in our attempts to understand nature. References:—"The Chain of Life in Geological ; London.
