Where Dwells the Soul Serene 
The book is full of quotable passages and it is worth 
careful reading by those who look on life as something better 
than the pursuit of money or pleasure. — Sax Francisco 
Chronicle. 
The volume is full of hope and strength for those who 
accept its teachings. It ought to carry inspiration to many 
world—weary people.— Zoledo Blade. 
Very much of inspiration is to be gotten from pages like 
these. The author has evidently read widely, pondered 
deeply, and that he is able to think somewhat originally and 
write exceedingly well his readers will readily grant.—Zoston 
Budget, 
The style in which this unpretending book is written has 
a touch of Emerson about it—sometimes a glimpse of Ruskin. 
—Minneapolis Times. 
His thoughts issue from him with much imaginative 
freshness and frequent strength. Add to this a considerable 
gift of simplicity and management of language, and it is not 
too much to say that written sixty years earlier this work 
might have made its author renowned.— Baltimore Sun. 
The book is written with all the winning persuasion of 
knowledge; and its perusal is a charm and an inspiration.— 
San Francisco Argonaut, 
The world will certainly be better for the uplifting, cour- 
ageous prose-songs of this master optimist. —Over land Monthly. 
It is pleasantly written, abounds in evidences'of intelligent 
travel and of earnest reflection, and is rich in human sym- 
pathy.—Pacifie Unitarian, 
Says many wise and true things in a lucid style.—Hartford 
Courant, 
A thoughtful, useful volume.—Boston Times, 
A book that gladdens the heart with its wealth of good 
tidings—tidings that tell how glorious is the universe, how 
grand a destiny has man, how really is his consciousness be~ 
ginning to ripen so that the goodness of it all entirely banishes 
the host of small evils that have seemed so pervasive and so 
real for so long. And these tidings are told in a way that re- 
veals the philosopher, the poet whose nature has opened to 
Nature’s God and to whom experience has been a rare mel- 
lower of faculty and sharpener of sense.—Boston Ideas,
