Every man's mind is gradually built up from infancy to maturity; the process is always going on before our eyes, yet the stages of it especially the earliest stages, the most pregnant with instruction are never studied and put on record by observers trained in inductive logic, knowing beforehand what they ought to look for as the sine quâ non for proving or disproving any proposed theory.
She was, after all, only a woman, and this man was assailing that thing which a woman prizes beyond all else her good name, her reputation, and she knew full well how he might circulate a lying story that she would have the utmost difficulty in disproving now. He could fling mud, and some of it must stick!
"To the great astonishment of the public, as well as to his own," wrote Laurence Oliphant, who was then on Elgin's staff, "Sir Allan MacNab, who had been one of his bitterest opponents ever since the Montreal events, was sent for to form a ministry Lord Elgin by this act satisfactorily disproving the charges of having either personal or political partialities in the selection of his ministers."
They have not only done well for themselves and their race, but they stand before the world as living illustrations of its capacity, disproving many theories concerning untutored races.

With respect to spontaneous generation, while admitting that there is no experimental evidence in its favour, Professor Haeckel denies the possibility of disproving it, and points out that the assumption that it has occurred is a necessary part of the doctrine of Evolution.
There were others who, to these more simple, if more ignorant, feelings of horror at witches and witchcraft, added the desire, conscious or unconscious, of revenge on those whose conduct had been in any way displeasing to them. Where evidence takes a supernatural character, there is no disproving it. This argument comes up: 'You have only the natural powers; I have supernatural.
There is no end to the books that have been written disproving and denouncing it, moreover, we have had the subject recently treated in a novel which excites our sympathies in behalf of a clergyman, who, overwhelmed by scholarship, finds he can no longer believe in the religion he is required to teach, and who renounces his living in consequence.
