He must be very ignorant of Science who reproaches Religion with the employment of inference or merely probable ar- guments, as if she alone were a sinner, or guilty above her physical sister. Science is as much the daughter of reason as of the senses. If the first step in induction is observation, the second is al- ways what inference the observations justify. It is from this point of view that Herbert Spencer gives as one definition of science, " an extension of the perceptions by means of re...asoning" ("Recent Dis- cussions, " p. 160). Observed facts do not deserve the name of science until they have been arranged by the magnet of some idea and marshaled in the on- ward column of some argument.
