THE LAST  MAN.
£_|;eg That May Overtake   the   Survivor
ot the fluwaii liace.
Agtronomers tViii 'us 'that' the day
must come when "tlie "earth"' "s^'ill.
like the moon, wheel through the heavens a dead and barren ball of matter,
airless, waterless, lifeless. But long,
long before that time man will be extinct, and will have disappeared so utr
terly that not so much as the bleached
skeleton of a human being will be visible on all the millions of square miles
pf tlie gurface of this planet. Unless
hy stjmp Jjnge and universal cataclysm
the whole jape Ig s^gpt at one'g ii}t(j
eternity, it is but reasonable to suppose that man, like any other race of
animals, will disappear slowly and that
eventually there will be but a single
human being left—some old, old man,
gray headed and bearded, and left to
gander alone in a solitude that may be
fmaginpd but not described. How -will
he die, "this lagt relip of the teeming
millions that once transformed £be
globe and ruled undisputed master of
^ every other living thing? There are
» V many fates that may befall him. He
/f may go mad with the horror of loneliness and himself end his miserable existence. He may be eaten by the vast
reptiles or giant insects which will
then probably infest the solitudes. But
his fate may 'be far weirder and more
'dr_i-iB_ Scientists say that as we
burn the eeal and tjffib. r we are still
so richly supplied with we let loose
into the atmosphere an ever-increasing
volume of carbonic, acid gas. Much of
this'ls taken up by plants, but not all.
It must increase and eventually poison
the breathable air, filling the valleys
and mountains slowly to the hilltops,
where the last remains of animal life
are striving for* existence. The last
man will clinrb higher and higher, but
eventually the suffocating, invisible
fluid will reach" and drown him.
