¢º SOME PRIVATIONS OF THE COMING MAN. With effacement of the sense of smell we shall doubtless lose the feature which serves as intake to what it feeds upon; and that will in many ways be an advantage. It will, for example, put a new difficulty in the way of that disagreeable person, the caricaturist?rather, it will shear him of much of his present power. The fellow never tires of furnishing forth the rest of us incredibly snouted in an infinite variety of wicked ways. When noses are no more, caricature will have stilled19 some of its thunder and we can all venture to be eminent. ¢¹ ´Ù°¡¿À´Â »ç¶÷ÀÇ ¸î °¡Áö »ç»ýÈ°(SOME PRIVATIONS OF THE COMING MAN).

¢º DID WE EAT ONE ANOTHER? Man is naturally a carnivorous animal. That none but green-grocers will dispute. That he was formerly less vegetarian in his diet than at present, is clear from the fact that market gardening increases in the ratio of civilization. So we may safely assume that at some remote period Man subsisted on an exclusively flesh diet. Our uniform vanity has given us the human mind as the acme of intelligence, the human face and figure as the standard of beauty. Of course we cannot deny to human fat and lean an equal superiority over beef, mutton and pork. It is plain that our meat-eating ancestors would think in this way, and being unrestrained by the mawkish sentiment attendant on high civilization, would act habitually on the obvious suggestion. A priori, therefore, it is clear that we ate ourselves. ¢¹ Àηù´Â ¼·Î ¸Ô¾ú´Â°¡?(DID WE EAT ONE ANOTHER?) Àΰ£Àº º»·¡ À°½Äµ¿¹°ÀÔ´Ï´Ù. û°ú¹° »óÀÎ ¿Ü¿¡´Â ´©±¸µµ ÀÌÀǸ¦ Á¦±âÇÏÁö ¾ÊÀ» °ÍÀÔ´Ï´Ù.

¢º ON THE USES OF EUTHANASIA. Pain is cruel, death is merciful. Prolongation of a mortal agony is hardly less barbarous than its infliction. Who when sane in mind and body would not choose to guard himself against a futile suffering by an assurance of accelerated release?

¢º THE JEW. But domestic infelicity is not the evil that the learned doctor has in apprehension: what he fears is nothing less momentous than the extinction of Judaism! On consideration it appears not unlikely that in a general blending of races that result would ensue.

Will the passing of Judaism be attended with such discomfortable befallings as the wreck of matter and the crush of worlds? ¢¹ À¯´ëÀÎ(THE JEW). ±×·¯³ª °¡Á¤ÀÇ ºÒÇàÀº ÇÐ½Ä ÀÖ´Â Àǻ簡 µÎ·Á¿öÇÏ´Â ¾ÇÀÌ ¾Æ´Õ´Ï´Ù. ±×°¡ µÎ·Á¿öÇÏ´Â °ÍÀº À¯´ë±³ÀÇ ¸ê¸Á¸¸ÅÀ̳ª Áß´ëÇÑ °ÍÀÔ´Ï´Ù! °í·ÁÇغ¸¸é ÀÎÁ¾ÀÇ ÀϹÝÀûÀΠȥÇÕ¿¡¼ °á°ú°¡ ³ª¿Ã °¡´É¼ºÀº °ÅÀÇ ¾ø¾î º¸ÀÔ´Ï´Ù. ±×·¯³ª ±×·¯¸é ¾î¶»°Ô µÉ±î¿ä? ¾î¶² À§´ëÇÑ ¹«Á¤ºÎÁÖÀÇ ¼ÕÀÌ ¸·ÀÌ ³»¸®°í ¿ìÁÖÀÇ ¾îµÒÀÌ ¸ðµç °ÍÀ» µ¤°Ô ÇÒ °ÍÀԴϱî?
