from those who held that the mere attempt to
apply scientific methods to religion was sacri-
legOus.
All this is apart from the special consideration
of Max Muller the man, but 1t serves to sho"
the forcefulness Of his character and the breadth
of his mind AS his wife says. it appears i'm
nossible to convict him of the charge of vanity
often brought against him, for the very tact
that he was so frank in his manifestations or
delight at the signal honors heaped upon him oy
savans and royalty alike would seem to acqult
him. Vain men are not boyishly exuberant as
a rule and Max Muller was ever boytshly ex-
uberant, drinking freely from the cup OF happl-
ness The pictures of his life at Norham Car
dens, oxford, given us by his wife, show hlIn
lust as ardent and high spirited in his old age
as ever he was in youth. Years did not dim
his perception of the joy of living, nor did
years with their many sad partings, lessen MS
kindness of heart.
That whatever his faults. Muller was essen
TALLY a gentleman, is the testimony of those
even with whom he engaged in wars OF words.
Darwin, in particular to whom his apparent
lack of progressive scholarship must have been
especially repugnant, is a strong witness to his
moderation in the heat of controversy. And
none but a gentleman could have endeared him
self as Miller did to great contemporaries in the
world of intellect. to the students who attended
his lectures. to all who came in close contact

ever linked with his, list that includes Huxley,
Renan, Froude, Holmes, Martineau, Gladstone,
Dr. Pusey, Taine TyndalI, Dean Farrar and
Dean Stanley. Many were the notable guests
harbOred beneath the hOspitable roof of the
home in Norham Gardens. Muler's many years
at oxford have left their mark on the old uni
versity, where his memory will ever be kept
green. despite the fact that his heart was always
in Germany, the land of his birth. His life
work, however could best be accomplished in
England. and in England he remained.
Mrs. Muller lays great stress on the fact that
her husband was born poet, a phase of his
nature that is too often forgotten by those who
knew him best the philolOgist who could
invest dry subject with life. and hold an audi
ence spellbound This being kept in mind, it is
easy to understand why, for all his absorption
in the affairs of science. he retained the ideaty
and sentiment inherited from both father and
mother We quote some characteristic lines,
written shortly before his marriage, and ad-
dressed to his future wife:
A soul to which cling with my SOUL What
is 1t? What is that soul? Who made It? Who
sent it here? Who led it on by slow degrees till
1t should meet that other soul which belonged
to it from the very beginning and Ionged for IL

terieS; we cannot look into them without feel
ing giddy and appalled, and vet we ought To

personality. To a large extent Mrs. MILLER let's

hand findeth to do. do it with all thy might"
His story is the romance of poor young man.
Left fatherless in early childhood, with
mother dependent on the largess of the Duke
OF Dessau. his fathers patron. Max Muller rose
from poverty not to riches. perhaps, but to the
distinction OF being of the really eminent
men of his day. To his mothers self-sacrihcing
devotion he owed much-a debt which he never
forgot; to his own un1agging industry and
dogged determination he owed more. Penniless
he contrived to secure university education
and eventually. when but twenty years DID,
made his way to Paris, where first sug-
gested to him the great work which was to
bring him wide renown-the collection and cor
rection of the Hymns of the RigVeda, together
with perfect text of Sayana's Commentary.
The Importance of this undertaking was little
realized at that time save by Sanskrit scholars
but 1t is recognized the world over to-day
Though Max Muller himself could not foresee the
structure he was building when he entered upon
the task which largely to occupy the
next thirty years of his life, it is now known
that he rendered possible a broader sympathy
between Oriental and Occidental lines of
thought. removing in no small measure the bias
occasioned by the influence of race, nationality
and religion. And as his work advanced and
he himself grew in intellectual power he was
enabled to introduce and popularize in England,
whittier he had early removed from Paris, the
study of comparative philology, thus continuing
what Bopp had begun in Germany. Still later
and again as a result of the influence of his
youth. he developed in England the science of
the comparative study Of religions an innova-
ton which. 1t viii be remembered, raised a great
storm and was met by the strongest opposition

The late William Ernest Henley was not
only writer himself but the cause OF writing
in Others Ii Is probable, indeed. that if he is
remembered at all il will be as journalist
with a faculty for encouraging" young men,
and as the writer who had more imitatOrS than
any one else of his time. with the exception
of Stevenson. There used to be a Henley cult,
and there are still belated enthusiasts who will
tell you, with soulful sOlemnity, that the lines
in which he trumpeted forth his steadfast res
olution to control his own destiny are forged
Of the pure gold of poetry and philosophy. But
the cult as a cult no longer exists. 1t fell into
disrepute when readers began to realize that
Mr.. Henley's too vigorous way of writing had
raised up a school of literary bad manners and
bumptiousneSs. When he wished to make a
point he drove it i'll with Sledge hammer.
When he diSSented from another writer, he
smote him with fail He SO fearful that
people might think him afraid of calling a
spade a spade that he sometimes allowed can
dor to Outrun discretion. Some of his verse Is
cleverly written, and so is some of his prose.
He was at his best in the old days OF his
editorship of the Scots Observer" before his
mannerisms had taken possession of him, and
when his disciples were more eager to do good
work than to achieve effects" He wrote
some unusually good notes, too, for the first
volume, published in 1897, of new edition of
Byron. He was putting the second volume to
press at the time of his death. Latterly he
wrote like scOld, and with groteSque affecta-
ton. his only creditable production in recent
years having been raucOus. but, on the whole.
sound protest against the food of twaddle in
which foolish admirers had been whelming his

made collections of manuscripts and pictures
of the Napoleonic period, Mrs. Quinlin has made
a speciality of furniture and other art objects.
One big apartment in Mrs Quinlin's home

but in an easy manner, everything harUOnizinS

sonaIly to the securing of each article in her
collection. and is satisfied that in every in

Mrs Quiniin has been twenty years getting
the collection together and has put a great
amount of time and study into the arrangement
