Experience is the high road to self-knowledge, self-assurance. Each one of us in his own life can have but a limited experience. Through the world of books, however, we can "experience" all time, all space and all phases of life.

Lewis R. Freeman, a correspondent very friendly to the Atlantic, secured the facts regarding Mücke's Odyssey from a variety of German sources. The translations in the paper were made by Mrs. Milly Scheel.

Ellen Key, descended from a Scotch Highlander, Colonel M'Key, who fought. under Gustavus Adolphus, was born in 1849 in the Swedish province of Smaland, on a country estate of her father. As a young girl, she was marked by a passionate love for nature, music, and books. In her earlier years she traveled much, but after 1880, when her father lost his property, she was compelled to work for her living and began to teach, first at school, and then at the University of Stockholm, where she occupied the Chair of the History of Civilization in Sweden. Believing with all her soul in what she taught, her radicalism in regard to the duties and rights of women led finally to the loss of her position. Since then she has written and lectured widely, and perhaps there is not a woman in Europe to-day whose influence has been more potent than hers. The last years of her life she is spending at a little house of her own building in one of the loveliest districts in Sweden.

Bouck White was graduated from Harvard in 1896. Ordained as a Congregational minister, he soon found that his steadily mounting radicalism created a barrier between him and many of his brother clergy, while the cleavage between him and many of his lay friends grew marked. In his autobiographical note in Who's Who, Mr. White speaks of himself as having been dismissed from Trinity House, Brooklyn, on account of his socialism.' Certainly, his fighting gospel of a new order on earth has led to violent collision with existing conditions. A year or two ago, Mr. White was forcibly and violently removed when in the presence of a large New York congregation he interrupted the service with a denunciation of the attitude of the church toward the comfortable classes. He was convicted of a breach of the peace and for a time was confined. Some time since, he has organized the Church of the Social Revolution,' to which he now ministers. The present article,

It may be worth while to reprint the following, which is not the only clergyman's letter we have received that takes a positive stand on behalf of Mr. Koren's contention.

GENTLEMEN: I wish to express my deep appreciation of the series of articles on the general subject of constructive temperance reform by Mr. John Koren. I am convinced that these articles are of inestimable value at the present time. I wish there were some way of getting such ideas into general discussion among the people. We have at present no way, as the Anti-Saloon League through its domination of the churches has, of getting sane temperance ideas constantly before the masses. All that most of the people now see is merely a fight between the prohibitionist and the saloon-keeper, in which good men are very much confused as to which is the better side to take.

Will not Atlantic authors send $1.00 each to the Authors' Fund, State St. Trust Co., Boston, and so express their sympathy and admiration for the Soldiers of Liberty now lying wounded in France?
