They have an end in view — sometimes their own maintenance, sometimes the perpetua- PURPOSEFUL STRUCTURES 69 tion of their kind, sometimes something else — and they employ means to achieve that end. They are, that is to say, purposive in their nature. Evidence of purposiveness is also furnished by the jvonderful organs of adaptation, root-tips, leaves, eyes, lungs, etc. It is extremely improb- able that they came into being — or even started to come into being — by mere chance alone. The odds a...re countless millions to one against the atoms, molecules, and cells — ^myriads in number — of any one of these organs of adaptation having by mere chance grouped themselves in such a way as to form an effective eye, or lung, or leaf.. It is, literally speaking, infinitely improbable that the organs of adaptation we see in a forest, in plant and animal, should have come into existence through chance alone. The organs of adaptation are distinctly and defi- nitely purposive structures — ^not purposed, perhaps, but certainly purposeful.
