Pestilence destroys a vast amount of eco- nomic value, ^)ut, as it is largely caused by -conditions arising from man's ignorance or crime, it must be regarded as of some use as an educator, and in as far as i
...t tends to rid the world of the hopelessly ignorant and depraved, it may be regarded as a positive good. Famine is certainly an educator ; it almost always occurs in regions where, taking the years together, sufficient food is pro- duced, but owing to a lack of providence, too little is stored for the contingency of one or more bad harvests ; it also teaches the danger of unwise massing of humanity.
