So far from there being any proof that been gradually growing colder from the earliest timesdown to the present date, there was every evidence to show thatglacial periods had recurred at different periods in past time. and Mr. Evans had merely given suggestions, but had notsolved the problem and proved that the poles did not occupy thesame position in Miocene times that they do today.

The Alps and the Himalayas were bothpre-Miocene, and were probably higher in pre-Miocene times thanat present, having been subjected
