The Piirn.AK Scien'CE Monthly has had few rivals and no equal in the 

 educative service it has done for the American people. A complete set of the 

 volumes thus far published is both a history of science for the j^eriod covered

 nothing to fill its place, and to carry it on is a benefaction to the public. — \V. T. 

 Harris, U. S. Commissioner of Education.
