No less than three of the articles in the Atlantic Monthly for June are from the pen of Harvard professors. Professor Charles Eliot Norton contributes a charming sketch entitled "Rawdon Brown and the Gravestone of 'Banished Norfolk,' " in which he describes Mr. Brown's antiquarian works in Venice. Professor C. H. Toy has an article on the origin and history of "The Thousand and One Nights." The mixed Indian and Persian and Arabian character of the stories is traced. Professor Royce publishes his second paper of "Reflections after a Wandering Life in Australasia" which is fully as thoughtful and interesting as the first. The rest of the number is full of interest. The serials are "The Tragic Muse" and "The Begum's Daughter." The latter is a story of the socalled Dutch rebellion in New York in 1690, and promises to be very good. The other articles are "The Highest Structure in the World," a description of the great Eiffel tower in Paris, by William A. Eddy, "Bonny Hugh of Ironbrook," by Edith Brown: "A World of Roses," a beautiful little poem by Edith Thomas; "The German Gymnasium in its Working Order" by G. M. Wahl; "The War Cry of Clan Grant" by W. Mitchell; "The Church the State and the School," by H. E. Scudder; and a short biography of Hector Berlioz.
