The Atlantic.

The April Atlantic opens with an Illuminating article on The Cost of War, by c. J. Bullock, who looks upon warfare as rapidly becoming too ex- pensive for endurance. a fact which makes for peace and arbitration as fast as nations shall begin to realize their burdens.
 Charles F. Dole contributes a paper on The Right and Wrong of The Mon roe Doctrine. His view is that chang ing circumstances have made the origi- nal Monroe Doctrine obsolete. and that We now have nothing to fear from for eign influences in South America.

The Confusion of Russian Names.

The publication of the names of Rus sian notabilities in newspapers, both here and abroad, often leads to much confusion. Not only Is 1t the custom to omit Christian names, but variations in spelling. add to the trouble. Thus Amelie Rives, the prominent author, who is the wife of Prince Troubetzkoy, an artist at one time well known in London, appears variously as the Prin- cess Troubetskoy ,or Troubetskoi. The difficulty is further increased by the fact that besides the artist, there are at least two other men bearing the ti- tie of Prince Troubetskoy, who have recently figured in the papers: one. the leader of the Zemstvos, in Moscow. and the other an atache of the Russian em bassy In Paris, a city where Amelie Rives spends much of her time. It would seem as if some system should be adopted to render Identification more easy. Princess Troubetzkoy Is. however, much better known as Amelie Rives.

Dissolution of an Interesting Commu-
 nlty.

nity.
 A lawsuit has been begun in Iowa for the dissolution of the Amana com munity, This religious and socialistic society was founded some fifty years ago by dozen settlers from Ohio and Pennsylvania, and now numbers about 1900 members. owns 200 square miles of excellent farming land and has one of the best woollen factories in the West. The total wealth Is estimated at $5,000,00 This commonwealth is said to be typical of all that is best and also of all that Is weakening and dangerous in the communistic concep- tion of society. All property is held in common, the members will not serve on juries nor bear arms, and except in local matters likely to affect the com munity, they do not vote. For this reason. and also because the society, though carrying on a large business, pays only the slight tax imposed on a religious organization, they are not very popular with their neighbors The movement for dissolution, however, comes from within ,the organization It is headed by the younger men and women who, tired of their simple lives and limited careers, are anxious to break loose, and yet desire to take with them more of tine common wealth than the twenty-five dollars for each year or memDerSnlp auoWed them Dy the society's rules. The Amanites of today are still a quaint, old-fashioned community, living as their fathers did before them. Contact with the outside world is forbidden, and marriage among the members Is looked down upon. Mary H. Kincaid, in her story of Walda, published a couple of years ago, has written entertainingly of this community. showing their ideals and the simple daily lives of the people. and drawing a love story of great in tensity In community where love and marriage are tacitly discouraged.

A Whistler Story.

 friend of the late James McNeil Whistler saw him on the street in Lon don, talking to a ragged little news boy. As he approached to speak to the artist, he noticed that the boy was as sy' as he had ever encountered-he seemed smeared all over-literally cov- cred with dirt.
 Whistler had just asked him a ques- tion. and the boy answered.:
 Yes. sir, I've been selling papers three years"
 How old are you?' inquired Whis- tier
 Seven, sir'
 'Oh, you must be more than that"
 No, sir, I ain't."
 Then turning to his friend, wno had overheard the conversation, Whistler said, "I don't think he could get that dirty in seven years. do your

Evangeline Is the most piquant of Mrs. Glyn's cre- ations, full of the guileful innocence and innocent guile Wltn WnlCn tnlS au- thor's heroines are endowed.
 Elinor Glyn Is the youngest daugh- ter of the late Douglas Sutherland. of Toronto Ontario. and was married in 1892 to Clayton Glyp, J. P, typical English squire A woman of very at tractive personality. she Is the mother of two beautiful children-Margot and Juliette. Her sister, Lady Duff Gordon, it will be remembered, is the we'll known titled Englishwoman who con ducts the most successful dressmaking establishment in London under the name of 'Lucette." Among Mrs. Glyn's most intimate friends Is Lady War wick. Mrs. Glyn lives at Sheering Hall, Harlow, in Essex--a beautiful old estate that has been for over two hun dred years in her husbands family. MT. Glyn is a notable sportsman, and numerous guests visr the Glyns during the shooting season. As will be recall ed. the party figures conspiG- uously in Mrs. Glyn's books. and her own experience as guest in English country houses has evidently furnish ed her with some of her most spicy details.
 But the sylvan life Is not to Mrs. Glyns liking. 'I hate" she says, thick boots and mud" She has few country tastes; golf and In fact, all other games, are her aversion. She does, however, like the leisure that a coun- try life affords one not addicted to

Outing for April.

worthy subject for a powerful pen Is the life of Pore Lacombe, a Wilderness Apostle of the North, which A. C. Laut contributes to April Outing Bravest and best-beloved of American missionaries. Lacombe lived for a half a century among the Indians. nursing them through plagues. fighting by them in their wars and teaching them q religion they could understand. Wide ly different from this is E. J. O. Alsops account of The Holy City of the Hindus with vivid photographs and descrip- tons of the strange customs of these remote people. House-boat Life on the Mississippi. by Clifton Johnson, tells Of strange modes of living nearer home. Household economy Is brought down to an astonishingly low point on this river. where the voyager collects his own wood, catches a dinner of fish and pays no rent.
 Spring Work in the Garden, a prac- tical and really helpful article for the amateur. gardener could not have come more sessonably. It tells of hot beds, cold frames and tools; laying out garden, planting flowers. raising vegetables and fruits, and finally gives many hints for keeping a good lawn Stalking Owls with a Camera Is a diff ficult feat, but was successfully ac- compiished by Herbert K. Job, who presents a striking series of photo graphs. and tells how he took them Followers of the kennel should read The Up- date Fox Terrier, with it's many pictures of show dogs.

Arthur Chapman tells us more of the wild life in the cow towns before they were tanned in Billy the Kid--A Man All Bad. Then in the departments we find our old friend, John Burroughs, attacking q would-be animal writer; Dan Beard telling how to build a Land and Water Aquarium; William C. Harris advising where to fish and what to wear, and Ralph D. Paine writing about the School and College World.
