DARWIN, NOT DOGBERRY.
MR. DARWIN, in his lately published work on The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals, informs us that our male semihuman progenitors "possessed great canine teeth," and that "men are occasionally born having them of unusually large size, with interspaces in the opposite jaw for their reception." We also learn from the Genealogist of Man's Pedigree, that "if our ears had remained movable, their movements would have been highly expressive."
