ROUTLEDGE'S

POPULAR LIBRARIES.

"Books to please the million must not only be good but attractive; not simply
strengthen the constitution, but please, if not tickle and excite, the palate. When
the masses go to ROUTLEDGE'S they are at least sure of being gratified and pleased;
they have still to acquire the same conviction in other quarters."-The Times.

ROUTLEDGE'S CHEAP SERIES.

"Books you may hold in your hand are the most useful after all."-Dr.Johnson.
"This valuable Series now contains upwards of 170 volumes. They form a
complete library of instructive, useful, and entertaining knowledge. Each work is
sold separately, at prices varying from One to Two Shillings, and many of them
are illustrated. They are admirably adapted for all Mechanics' Institutes, Sol-
diers' and Sailors' Libraries, or Village Book Clubs, and for all kinds of popular
instruction. They embrace the Works of our best authors in the various depart-
ments of Biography, History, Fiction, &c.: and Books that formerly cost pounds
may now be obtained for shillings.

"No family ought to be without this Library, as it furnishes the readiest re-
sources for that education which ought to accompany or succeed that of the
boarding-school or academy, and it is infinitely more conducive than either to the
cultivation of the intellect and the well-being of society."

Price 1s. each in Fancy Boards, except where specified.
