_What a vast work for good in these several ways is the great
magazine-publishing house of_ THE CENTURY Co. _doing; what an
uplift is it giving to good taste, good morals, good politics, and good
manners, as well as to the dissemination of useful knowledge, to the
culture of "the masses," to the comfort and peace and pleasure of home,
to the welfare of society in general! No engine of the things that are
true and pure and good is more mighty than a work like this; we ought
all to be thankful that it is in such hands. Making money, of
course_, THE CENTURY Co. _are; we are glad of it; but they are also
making hearts happier, lives better, and homes brighter the world
over._--THE LITERARY WORLD, BOSTON, MASS.

current magazine literature, in "St. Nicholas" we have the best serial
publication for boys and girls the present generation has
seen._--THE COUNTRY GENTLEMAN, ENGLAND.
