VI. Michael Breal. examining the genesis and
the development of language, has concluded that
the old phlOlOgiSs were all wrong In their
theory that words had a separate being, growth
and decline that language existed apart from
man. Words have been devised by man for
his own convenience, he says; their origin Is to
be sought in social evolution, and therefore
philOlogy takes its place not among the natu-
raj, but among the historical. sciences. The
learned professor has invented a method Of
"Scmantcs." to assist in the application of his
ideas. The subject is faScina ting one, and
Mr. Charles whitley introduces us to II in the
current "Fortnightly" in excellent style. Com

style of Milton than with the jargOn OF Mil
tons contemporaries. and . il is incOn-
"CciVable that the People helped the
author OF COmus' to single phrase or 4

But is it not possible that the truth lies some
where between the dictum Of NJ Breal and
that Of Mr.. whitley? DO not the Millions and
"the People" work together in this fashioning
Of our speech? Their collaboration is rarely
obvious at the moment, but in the long run

In this place last week. has been justifying
beautifully our estimate Of his charming traits
"a Man of Kent had been saying gloomsome
things about conspracics against certain au-

which he doubtless thinks very clever, but
which merely well bred people can only regard
as cowardy.
