Evolution eliminates design, mind, and an active and ever present God, and substitutes blind chance or natural selection, dubs it "science" and asks the world to believe it! According to the evolution theory, the gain in the mechanism of the eye causes its possessors to survive, and others to die. Is that true?
To come now to a point of much less, but yet of very great consequence at your first setting out. Be extremely upon your guard against vanity, the common failing of inexperienced youth; but particularly against that kind of vanity that dubs a man a coxcomb; a character which, once acquired, is more indelible than that of the priesthood.
That's the stunning part of it. I just landed right into the middle of it with both feet. I knew they had been planning to start a big Western branch. But we all thought they'd pick some big man for it. There are plenty of medium-class dubs to be had.
"Honest, there are more dubs around this town who had rather get married than work than there are actors on Broadway now. I have had three proposals since I have been back, one of marriage. I told them all 'no. That I preferred to live a la carte. I could have become a farmer's bride in Emporia if I had but said the word.
"It were odd if I had not. The most valiant knight in Italy, fame dubs him." His eyes were intently on her face, and what he saw there satisfied him. "You know how he stands with the people of Babbiano?" "I know that he is beloved of them." "And do you know that he is a pretender to the throne of Babbiano? You will remember that he is cousin to Gian Maria?" "His relationship to Gian Maria I know.
"Anyone would think," said Amy one day when Clint had been singing the praises of the second team, "that you dubs were the only football players in school. Ever hear of the 'varsity team, Clint? Of course I may be mistaken, but I've been given to understand that they have one or two fairly good men on the 'varsity." Clint grinned. "That's what they tell you, Amy!"
To crown all, Frank Lovell dubs the whole thing "slow;" but I have remarked gentlemen make use of this epithet to convey their disapproval of that which they cannot find any positive fault with just as we ladies call a woman "bad style" when we have nothing else to say in her disparagement. "Gone away!" exclaims Squire Haycock, lifting his cap high above his red head; "yonder he goes!
"Man, i' the gloamin' she'll no ken 't frae buntin'," said Dubs, and at once displayed it, holding it by the two sleeves. The wind had now fallen to the softest breath, and the little vessel came on slowly. The men rowed hard, shouting, and waving their flag, and soon heard a hail which none of them could mistake for other than Malcolm's.
"There's four of us now," Jimmie urged, "and we've all got guns, so we ought to go after the lobsters and get Fremont away from them." "They look like dubs," Frank put in, "and I believe they'll run when they hear us shooting. If you won't let me drum, you must let me shoot." "You got no drum!" grinned Jimmie.
Even as I write I read in the "British Review" how Admiral Sir Percy Scott attacks Admiral Lord Charles Beresford, dubs him the "laughing-stock of the fleet," accuses him of publishing in his book The Betrayal a series of "deliberate falsehoods," and concludes by saying that the gallant Admiral is "not a seaman."
