A recent writer on Lincoln as a Hover of mankind" has likened him to two other great men who have be- come common possession of our AnglO-SaxOn race. Although they seem almost as far separated from each other as from Lincoln himself, both Chaucer and Sir Walter Scott reveal to the careful observer the qualities that provoked comparison apparently so remote. These are the qualities of lover of mankind.
 Chaucer displayed them in depict ing, with sympathy for all, the group of widely various characters who made their immortal Canterbury Pilgrimage together. Scott displayed them not only through the creatures of his inn agination, but also in his recorded re- latiOnS with all his fellow beings. In that respect Chaucer is at a disad- vantage,e because he lived long before biography had attained anything like its modern abundance. Lincoln, later thai: Scott, and more tempting to bi--

Why Lincoln Helped a Bug.

President Lincoln was walking with a friend about Washington and turned back for some distance to assist a beetle that had got on ifs back and lay on the walk, legs sprawling in air, vainly trying to turn itself over. The friend expressed surprise that the President, burdened with the cares of warning nation. should find time to spare in assisting a bug.
 "Well," said Lincoln. with that homely sincerity that touched the hearts of millions of his countrymen "do you know that if 1 had left that bug struggling there on his back wouldn't have felt just right? wanted to put him on his feet and give him an equal chance with all the other bugs of his claSS.''

Lincoln and Sumner.

Lincoln was modestly proud of his stature and of the effect of the physical man, especially when actuated by noble sentiments. He used to speak of his height to every tall man he met, and to propose measuring other guileleSS habit of Self-gratifica- ton. The only refusal he is known to have received was from Charles Sumner, who was also tall and proud of his height. Sumner was worrying the President. as he often did. about some perpleXing matter, when Lincoln abruptly challenged him to measure. Summer declined" said Lincoln, "mak- ing fine speech about this being the time for uniting our fronts against the enemy. and not our backs.

 : It is in the very variety and extent of the studies of Lincoln's character that the strength of his hold on the ina gination of the world is shown Fifty-six years have passed since he met his tragic death Through all that period the interpretations of his haracter-historical, analytical. po- etical-have steadily increased in num- ber The bare facts of his unique, yet strangely typical and Signlhcant career, arrange themselves in per spective like the acts of great up- lifting tragedy. If he had lived in the days when myths were made, it is easy to imagine that in the process of time he would have grown into great mythical figure, a King Arthur of the New World, half-divine hero like those that we associate with the most distant antiquity.
 But he belonged to no such period. His age is one of the most amply re- corded in all history, and the records of his life are so intertwined with those of men and events quite with out poetic or heroic suggestion, that his feet can never be wholly removed from the earth. Indeed, it is much better that no such possibility exists. We need to know that out of our com mon life can spring so extraordinary an example of the development of which our human nature is capable.
 When all is said and done, when his wisdom, his patience, his sacrifice are fully remembered, we shall delight pre-eminently to recall him as the friendly, humorous. accessible lover Of mankind.-Youth'S Companion.
