I've done wi' him and she's done wi' him. He's made his bed, and he mun lig on it." The Rector put up his hand sternly. "Don't! Mrs. Bateson. Those are words you'll repent when you yourself come to die. He has sinned toward you but remember! he's a young man still in the prime of life. He has suffered horribly and he has only a few hours or days to live.
"One for you," said he. "They're all the same. Wake gave Bateson and me a penny a-piece for writing them out, and we knocked off twenty. He says he'd have sent you one a-piece, only he knows you've not two ideas between you. Catch hold." And he departed, smiling sweetly, with his tongue in his cheek, just in time to avoid a Caesar flung by the indignant baronet at his head.
"It is indeed," agreed Mrs. Bateson; "Lucy Ellen said it seemed for all the world like heaven, to see so many ministers about, all in their black coats and white neckcloths. And then such preaching as they heard! It isn't often young folks enjoy such privileges, and so I told her." "When all's said and done, there's nothing like a good sermon for giving folks real pleasure.
There can be little doubt that, as Bateson states, numerous forms recognised as species or varieties in nature differ in the same way as the races or breeds of cultivated organisms which differ by factors independently inherited.
"Didn't you, Mr Bickers? I'm going to see all the events. They have just run the first race, and Bateson and Jukes have both beaten the boy in your house who won last week. Haven't you a programme? Mr Railsford will give you one." "Thank you. I'm not staying long. It will be rather dull for you, will it not?" "Dull!" said Miss Phyllis, laughing. "I don't think it dull, thank you."
Bateson, however, proceeds to urge that the history of the Sweet Pea belies those ideas of a continuous evolution with which we had formerly to contend. The big varieties came first, the little ones arose later by fractionation, although now the devotees of continuity could arrange them in a graduated series from white to deep purple.
First the chemistry of organic matter was investigated, then the physical attraction of their molecules, and now their geometry is in question. So, says Professor Bateson, the 'geometrical symmetry of living things is the key to a knowledge of their regularity and the forces which cause it. In the symmetry of the dividing cell the basis of that resemblance which we call Heredity is contained'.
In any case the mere separation among different individuals of factors originally inherited together in one complex does not account for the origin of the complex or of the factors. This is somewhat the same idea as that of Bateson when he states that it is easy to understand the origin of a recessive character but difficult to conceive the origin of a dominant.
"That's a dear young lady!" exclaimed Mrs. Bateson, in an ecstasy of admiration. "Do you think Jemima will cry when I go?" "No, lovey; she wouldn't so far forget herself as to bother the gentry with her troubles, surely." "But I shouldn't be bothered; I should be too sorry for her.
I always say that men are the same as kittens you should take 'em straight from their mothers, or else not take 'em at all; for, if you don't, you never know what bad habits they may have formed or what queer tricks they will be up to." "Maybe the manager's nephew ain't altogether the sort of husband you'd expect for a Farringdon," said Mrs. Bateson thoughtfully; "I don't deny that.
