T'IEN HSIA-

MONTHLY

Published under the Auspices of the Sun Yat-sen Institute for the Ad- vancement of Culture and Education.

WHAT EVERY CULTUREd home should haveĮ

"A high level of thought, style and scholarship is maintained, and there is hardly an article which does not impress the reader with a feeling of respect should rank with the better class of reviews the world over."

-International Affairs.

"It is packed full of literary, philosophical, and historical inter- est from cover to cover. No one who is really interested in China

or who would become better acquainted with Chinese outlooks can well afford to leave this, the T'ien Haia Monthly, off his magazine list."

The Personalist.

"Not in many a day has anything so stimulating bobbed up in China From every page shine forth sentences which somehow bite into the consciousness."
