C/O MISS MACLEOD,
HOTEL HOLLANDE,
RUE DE LA PAIX,
PARIS,
5th September, 1895.
DEAR AND BLESSED FRIEND,
It is useless to express my gratitude for your kindness; it is too great for expression. . . .
I have a cordial invitation from Miss Müller, and as her place is very near to yours, I think it will be nice to come to her place first for a day or two and then to come over to you.
My body was very ill for a few days, which caused this delay in writing you.
Hoping soon for the privilege of mingling hearts and heads together.
I remain, ever yours in love, and fellowship in the Lord,
VIVEKANANDA.

DEAR FRIEND (Mr. E. T. Sturdy),
The tickets of the Balleren (?) Society are 35 in number.
The subject is "Indian Philosophy and Western Society". Chairman blank.
As you did not ask me to send them over, I do not. I got your letters properly.
Yours in the Sat,

31st October, 1895 (5 p.m.).
DEAR FRIEND (Mr. E. T. Sturdy),
Just now two young gentlemen, Mr. Silverlock and his friend, left. Miss Müller also came this afternoon and left just when these gentlemen came in.
One is an Engineer and the other is in the grain trade. They have read a good deal of modern philosophy and science and have been much struck by the similarity with the latest conclusions of both with the ancient Hindu thought. They are very fine, intelligent, and educated men. One has given up the Church, the other asked me whether he should or not. Now, two things struck me after this interview. First, we must hurry the book through. We will touch a class thereby who are philosophically religious without the least mystery-mongering. Second, both of them want to know the rituals of my creed! This opened my eyes. The world in general must have some form. In fact, in the ordinary sense religion is philosophy concretised through rituals and symbols.
It is absolutely necessary to form some ritual and have a Church. That is to say, we must fix on some ritual as fast as we can. If you can come Saturday morning or sooner, we shall go to the Asiatic Society library or you can procure for me a book which is called Hemâdri Kosha, from which we can get what we want, and kindly bring the Upanishads. We will fix something grand, from birth to death of a man. A mere loose system of philosophy gets no hold on mankind.
If we can get it through, before we have finished the classes, and publish it by publicly holding a service or two under it, it will go on. They want to form a congregation, and they want ritual; that is one of the causes why — will never have a hold on Western people.
The Ethical Society has sent me another letter thanking me for the acceptance of this offer. Also a copy of their forms. They want me to bring with me a book from which to read for ten minutes. Will you bring the Gita (translation) and the Buddhist Jâtaka (translation) with you?
I would not do anything in this matter without seeing you first.
Yours with love and blessings,
VIVEKANANDA.

DEAR JOE JOE,
I shall be only too glad to come to lunch on Friday and see Mr. Coit at the Albemarle.
Two American ladies, mother and daughter, living in London came in to the class last night — Mrs. and Miss Netter. They were very sympathetic of course. The class there at Mr. Chamier's is finished. I shall begin at my lodgings from Saturday night next. I expect to have a pretty good-sized room or two for my classes. I have been also invited to Moncure Conways's Ethical Society where I speak on the 10th. I shall have a lecture in the Balboa Society next Tuesday. The Lord will help. I am not sure whether I can go up with you on Saturday. You will have great fun in the country anyway, and Mr. and Mrs. Sturdy are such nice people.
With love and blessings,
VIVEKANANDA.
PS. Kindly order some vegetables for me. I don't care much for rice — bread will do as well. I have become an awful vegetarian now.

LIX[6]*
(Translated from Bengali)
54 W. 33rd ST., NEW YORK, 9th February, 1895.
DEAR SANYAL,
. . Paramahamsa Deva was my Guru, and whatever I may think of him in point of greatness, why should the world think like me? And if you press the point hard, you will spoil everything. The idea of worshipping the Guru as God is nowhere to be met with outside Bengal, for other people are not yet ready to take up that ideal. . . . Many would fain associate my name with themselves — "I belong to them!" But when it comes to doing something I want, they are nowhere. So selfish is the whole world!
I shall consider myself absolved from a debt of obligation when I succeed in purchasing some land for Mother. I don't care for anything after that.
In this dire winter I have travelled across mountains and over snows at dead of night and collected a little fund; and I shall have peace of mind when a plot is secured for Mother.
Henceforth address my letters as above, which is to be my permanent seat from now. Try to send me an English translation of the Yogavâsishtha Râmâyana. . . . Don't forget those books I asked for before, viz Sanskrit Nârada and Shândilya Sutras.
" [059_sanyal_01.jpg] — Hope is the greatest of miseries, the highest bliss lies in giving up hope."
Yours affectionately,
VIVEKANANDA.

(Translated from Bengali)
22nd October, 1894.
DEAR—, (Swami Ramakrishnananda.)
Glad to receive your letter and go through the contents. I received today a letter of Akshay Kumar Ghosh from London, which also gives me some information. . . .
Now you have come to know your own powers. Strike the iron while it is hot. Idleness won't do. Throw overboard all idea of jealousy and egotism, once for all. Come on to the practical field with tremendous energy; to work, in the fullness of strength! As to the rest, the Lord will point out the way. The whole world will be deluged by a tidal wave. Work, work, work — let this be your motto. I cannot see anything else. There is no end of work here — I am careering all over the country. Wherever the seed of his power will find its way, there it will fructify — आद्य वा अब्दशतान्ते वा—be it today, or in a hundred years." You must work in sympathy with all, then only it will lead to quick results . . . .
Our object is to do good to the world, and not the trumpeting of our own names. Why doesn't Niranjan (Niranjanananda) learn Pali in Ceylon, and study Buddhist books? I cannot make out what good will come of aimless rambling. Those that have come under his protection, have virtue, wealth, desires, and freedom lying at their feet. माभैः माभैः— Courage! Everything will come about by degrees. From all of you I want this that you must discard for ever self-aggrandisement, faction-mongering, and jealousy. You must be all-forbearing, like Mother Earth. If you can achieve this, the world will be at your feet. . . .
Try to give less of material food in the anniversary celebrations, and give some food for the brain instead. . . .
Yours affectionately,
Vivekananda.

VRINDABAN,
12th Aug., 1888.
DEAR SIR,
Leaving Ayodhya I have reached the holy Vrindaban, and am putting up at Kâlâ Bâbu's Kunja. In the town the mind feels contracted. Places like Râdhâ-kunda, I have heard, are delightful; but they are at some distance from the town. I have a mind to proceed very shortly to Hardwar. In case you have any acquaintance there, you would be doing me a great favour if you would kindly write him an introduction for me. What about your visiting this place? Please reply early and oblige.
Yours etc.,
VIVEKANANDA.

DEAR GOVINDA SAHAY,
Do you keep any correspondence with my Gurubhâis of Calcutta? Are you progressing morally, spiritually, and in your worldly affairs? . . . Perhaps you have heard how for more than a year I have been preaching Hindu religion in America. I am doing very well here. Write to me as soon as you can and as often as you like.

Victory to God!
BARANAGORE,
4th Feb., 1889.
DEAR SIR,
For some reason I had been feeling today agitated and cramped in my mind, when your letter of invitation to the heavenly city of Varanasi reached me. I accept it as the call of Vishveshvara. (The Lord of the Universe, or Shiva, as installed in the leading temple of Varanasi or Kashi.) I am going now on a pilgrimage to the place of my Master's nativity, and after a sojourn of a few days there, I shall present myself to you. He must be made of stone whose mind does not melt at the sigh of Kashi and its Lord! I feel now much improved in health. My regards to Jnanananda. I am coming as soon as I can. It all depends ultimately on Vishveshvara's will . . . . More when we meet.
Yours etc.,
VIVEKANANDA.

DEAR GOVINDA SAHAY,
. . . Honesty is the best policy, and a virtuous man must gain in the end. . . . You must always bear in mind, my son, that however busy or however distant, or living with men however high in position I may be, I am always praying, blessing, and remembering everyone of my friends, even the humblest.

# The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Elm-Insects

Edition of 1920. See also Elm#Insects on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
ELM-INSECTS. Few ornamental trees are more subject to the attacks of insects than are the elms, and especially the American elm. The European species are, however, attractive to the European insects, of which many have been brought over unintentionally, and have spread remarkably because of the absence of their enemies. One of the most notable is the plant-louse known as Colopha ulmicola, which produces the cockscomb galls upon the foliage. It is rarely very troublesome, and has usually done its damage before it can be attacked. Kerosene emulsion, if applied in time, will prove effective. (See Insecticide). A borer (Saperda tridentata) is sometimes troublesome, but there seems to be no satisfactory way to control it, though it has been suggested that the trunk should he washed with lime or soft soap during June and July. Most of the other insects that attack the elms are beetles, their larvæ, or the caterpillars of various moths. These all bite their food, and hence may be attacked with arsenites or other stomach poisons sprayed upon the foliage. Among these insects are the four-horned sphinx-moth (Ceratomia amyntor or quadricornis), a green caterpillar with four little horns near the head and the long anal horn characteristic of the sphinx-moth. The bag-worm (Thyridopteryx ephemeræformis), the gypsy-moth (Ocneria dispar), the tussock-moth (Notolophus or Orgyria leucostigma),
and several other general feeders are frequently troublesome. But the most important leaf-eating enemy of the elm is the elm-leaf beetle (Galeruca xanthomelæna), a reddish-yellow, two-striped European insect which appears and eats the leaves in spring. The bottle-shaped yellow eggs are laid in rows on the under sides of the leaves, and the hairy, black-spotted, yellow larvæ eat circular holes between the leaf-veins. Spraying with arsenites is effective, but where more than one brood is produced the sprayings must be repeated frequently throughout the summer. Consult Marlatt, ‘Elm Leaf Beetle,’ Circular 8, Division of Entomology, United States Department of Agriculture (Washington 1895).
# The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Embury, Philip

Edition of 1920. See also Philip Embury on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
EMBURY, Philip, Methodist clergyman: b. Ballygaran, Ireland, 21 Sept 1729; d. Camden, N. Y., August 1775. He joined John Wesley's society and became a local preacher at Court-Mattress in 1758. Emigrating to New York in 1760, he began to preach in his own house in 1766 and two years later erected a chapel on the site of the present “Old John Street Church.” Being a carpenter by trade, he worked on the building with his own hands and completed the pulpit, in which he preached the sermon of dedication 30 Oct. 1768. This was the first Methodist chapel of the New World and he has been called “the founder of American Methodism.” It was, however, at Camden, Washington County, N. Y., that he did his greatest work, forming there a congregation which grew into the flourishing and influential Troy Conference. Consult Buckley, ‘History of Methodism’ (Vol. I, New York 1898).
# The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Emden

Edition of 1920. See also Emden on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
EMDEN, Germany, town, in the province of Hanover, on the Ems, near where it discharges itself into the Dollart estuary. Emden has an excellent roadstead and its harbor is connected with this by a canal admitting large vessels. The Dortmund-Ems and other canals connect it with the interior. The town has a Dutch appearance due to its quaint architecture and the dykes which protect it from inundation. The town hall, dating from the 16th century, has a remarkable collection of ancient armor and is one of the finest public buildings in Germany. The town contains also a 12th century church, a museum, art gallery, barracks, a public library, trade and industrial schools, and a deaf and dumb institute. Emden has cable communication with Great Britain, America, and other countries. Its export trade includes grain, dairy produce, cattle, tallow, wool, hides, etc.; and it imports coal, timber, wine and colonial produce. A considerable number of vessels are built here annually; and the manufactures include leather, paper, dairying instruments, basketware, cement, wire ropes, bricks, soap and tobacco. There are also oil-mills, breweries and distilleries. Emden was founded in the 10th century or earlier and in 1433 was added to Hamburg. It became a free city in 1595, and a free port in 1751. In 1806 it was taken by Holland, but nine years later was added to Hanover, which in 1866 was itself made part of Prussia. Pop. 24,038.

Edition of 1920. See also Mischa Elman on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
ELMAN, Mischa, Jewish violinist: b. Talnoje, Russia, 1892. He showed such remarkable talent that at the age of six he was taken by his father to Odesaa and there studied under competent masters for four years. He met Leopold Auer in 1902 and so impressed the latter that he secured the permission of the Tsar for Elman's admission to the Imperial Conservatory at Saint Petersburg, hitherto closed to members of the Jewish race. Elman spent two years there under Auer and at his début in 1904 he was at once acclaimed as an artist of first rank. He toured Germany and everywhere scored a triumphant success. He visited the United States in 1906 and again in 1911, 1912, 1913 and 1914, being eminently successful on every occasion. On the violin he is now recognized as a veritable genius.
# The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Elm, Slippery

Edition of 1920. See also Ulmus rubra on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
ELM, Slippery, in medicine, the bark of Ulmus fulva, is widely used as a demulcent. It is probable that the ancient Indian inhabitants of the country introduced it into medicine. Slippery elm bark is noted for the large amount of mucilage which it contains, thus rendering it a pleasing demulcent for sore throat, diarhœa, dysentery, and inflammation of the intestinal tract in general.
