In-:worrying over this misfit we:w have tried to be helped out by read- jg ing an article on "Blood Human and 5j Ape," first appearing in the Atlantic ;g Monthly, by Vernon Kellogg. He; ^ speaks of the "structural evidence of; n ancestral relationship between the fcj anthropoids and man" being "added I to by several other well known kinds 8 of likenesses, physiological, psycho- jg logical and even ecological." Furth- I er on Mr. Kellogg speaks of the dog 9 J and wolf ancf 'other animals, but does I not- mention rabbit and cat, which fj leaves us in the dark, and we grope I around not knowing anything about jg what he calls the "precipitin rcac- |j tions." j j? In the researches of science all j sorts of prehistoric races are being H heard of, and it may be that this b rabbity-cat in the possession of Mr.:H Hodge can furnish, in the language H of Mr. Kellogg, "a notable modern ra addition to the biological evidence ir of Anthropoid'' and some other rc_'?| lationship; and his study of "certain B highly specialized external insect!
