PUBLISHER’S NOTE.
The address contained in this book was originally given before the Young Men’s Christian Association of Harvard University, in May, 1895. It was afterwards repeated before the Society for Ethical Culture of Philadelphia and the School of Applied Ethics at Plymouth. It was printed in the International Journal of Ethics for October, 1895, and, the demand for it having been so great, we are glad to have the permission of the author and of the management of the Journal to republish it in more convenient form.
The author desires us to add that he owes his application of the quotation with which the address closes, to Mr. W. M. Salter, who used it in a similar way in an article in the Index for August 24, 1882.
