Conducted by Prof. E. L. Youmans.

The PoTnlar Science Monthly was startled 10 prn-
readable and attractive FORM among all classes Of
the community, and has thus far met want supplied
by no other periodical in the United States
The great feature Of the magazine is that its con-
tents not what science ten or more years
since but what it is to-day, fresh from the study the
laboratory, and the experiment: clothed in the LAM
guage Of the authors, inventors ard scientists them
selves, which comprise the leading minds Of England,
France, Germany, and the United States. Among
popular articles, covering the whole range of natural
science. we have the latest thoughts and words of
Herbert SIencer,an Professors Huxley, Tyndall and
H. y Proctor Since the start, it has proved graft
Tying to every friend of scientific progress
ald universal education; and those who believed that
science could not be made anything but dry study are
disappointed. The press all over the land is warmly
comnendingit. We subjoin few encomiums from
these recently given:
