Machiavelianism" brings home the lax
morals that have built up great cor
porations and business houses, show
ing how the aXioms OF Machiavelli's
Prince" although pretty strong even
for Italy of the Medici, form the
catechism of the modern captain of in
dustry. Ray Stannard Baker con.
tinues his veil-lifting series, "The Rail-
roads on Trial." devoting the current
number to the formation of public
opinion by the law-breaking railroads
and shippers; disclosing as neat and
clever and complicated piece of
underhanded machinery as ever you
heard of. Anthony Fiala concludes
his accounts of Give Years in the
Artic" with the story of the separation
of the party, the last advance north in
the darkness, the final surrender and
the arrival of the relief ship. Many of
the photographs in this instalment are
even more remarkable than those in
the February number. Clara Morris
has a charming bit of stage recollec.
ton, Looking Backward" in which
she tells how she saw Henry Irving for
the first time while she was hunting a
leading man for Mr.. DAILY.
The March number is unusually
strong in good fiction. The poems,
which balance the number are: 1.-The
Crocus' 10y Herbert Trench; "Beyond
the Spectrum" by Florence Wilkinson;
"The Marionettes' by Witter Bynner;
an the Night" by Paul Kester: and
"A Song" by A. +. Housman.
