" I never wanted articles on religious subjects half so much as 

 articles on common subjects, written with a decidedly Christian 

 tone." — Dr. Arnold. 



The Committee of the Religious Tract Society have 

 resolved to publish a volume every month, adapted to the new 

 development and growing intelligence of the times. This 

 series, with the exception of a few reprints, will be Original; 

 from the pens of authors of ability in their respective depart- 

 ments in literature and science:— Scriptural; in the prin- 

 ciples in which they are written:— Popular; in their style; so 

 that instead of being limited to one class of the community, 

 they may be generally acceptable: — Portable; that they may 

 serve as " hand-books " abroad and at home:— and Economical; 

 the twelve volumes of a year costing less than three half-pence 

 per week. Thus while the MONTHLY SERIES will be fully 

 adapted to the educated Families of our land, to Day and 

 Sunday Schools, and to the Libraries of mechanics and 

 others, they will supply interesting and valuable reading to a 

 large number of the people, who can only spare time enough 

 for the perusal of a small volume, and whose means will not 

 allow of a more costly purchase.
