The publishers of this book, desiring to secure a life of Christ of
superior merit and special character, offered a prize of $1,000 for the
best manuscript submitted. The committee decided in favor of "TITUS."
It was an immediate success, over one million copies having been sold.
It is one of the grandest books of the century, and has attracted
greater attention than any other book published in this country during
the past twenty years.
No. 4. July, 1898.
