Lincoln's famous phrase. "Of the people.
by the people and for the people" ascribed
by Mr.. George F. Parker In the February
Review OF Reviews to Thomas Cooper an
light eenth century writer. does not seem to
have been peculiar to any one writer or
speaker. In the March Review are pub
lished several suggestions from correspond
ents, each OF whom hints at a separate
possible source Of the form OF words in
question. Judge Story and Daniel Webster
are two authorities cited as employing very
nearly the same ideas, in similar phrase
ology. A letter from Mr.. John White Chad
wick, however, seems to prove conclusively
that Lincoln got the phrase from one OF
Theodore Parker's anti-slavery addresses.
Parker wrote: Democracy is direct self
government, over all the people. by all the
people. for all the people" william II.
Herndon, Lincoln's law partner, says that
Lincoln read and marked this passage with
a pencil.

Fiction readers will turn first, in the
March Century, to the opening pages OF a
new story by Irving Bacheller author Of
the record breaking "Eben Holden" The
title is ''D'ri and l." the general theme is
American border life at the time OF the
war Of 1872 and the leading characters are
Colonel Raymon Bell. U. s. A., south
erner, and Darius, a typical Yankee. Con-
tinuing his Webster series, Prof. McMaster
considers this month his hero's experience
as a leader OF the opposition in congress.

authority Is unimpeachable. As "A com

Two contributions Of immediate interest
In Ainslee's for March are THE Miles-C

Journals" by Allen Sangree. The first Of
these is a remarkably frank account Of the
long continued friction in the War depart
ment. The article on yellow Journals"
tells how these papers are made, and aims
to explain why they are made as they are.
"Uruguay's Progressive Ruler by Douglas
White, is a portrait study Of Cuestas. who
is unique exception among South Ameri-
can presidents. THE Decay OF Manners"
by John Gilmer Speed. Is an earnest pro-
test in exceedingly readable form against
the decline OF American politeness. Some
After Dinner Humorists," by George Barry
Mallon. is an anecdotal sketch Of the best
after dinner speakers, with enjoyable ex-
amples from their speeches.
The March number OF the Woman's Home
Companion has many features Of more than
ordinary interest. Some OF them that will
prove very interesting are Father John, the
Greek Miracle Worker" by Edward Page
CASTOR: Tho Goddess OF Excelsior" by
Bret Harte; "A Great Athletic Club for
Both Sexes" by Bertha Damaris Knobe;
Americas Greatest Social Function" by
Walden Fawcett; THE Most Richly Fur
nished Home in America" by Haryot Holt
Cahoon. The fiction in this number is
especially strong, being contributed by such
authors as John Kendrick Bangs, Mrs
Spofford and Bret Harte. The art features
are decidedly superior to anything that has
heretofore appeared in a magaz zine. There
is a magnificent reproduction Of Sir Lau-
renee Alma -Tadema's great painting, THE
Village Festival" besides fine paintings by
w. Frank Calderon. Herman Kaulbach. Karl
Gustav Hellqvist and ]. Cleminson.
THE Balloonist" is the hero of Cleve-
land Moffett's third paper on Careers OF
Danger and Daring" which appears in the
