 INTRODUCTION

The editor of The Strand Magazine respectfully places his just number in the hands of the public.

The Strand Magazine will be issued regularly in the early part of each month.

It will contain stones and articles by the best British writers, and special translations from the just foreign authors. These will be illustrated by eminent artists.

Special new features which have not hitherto found place in Magazine Literature will be introduced from time to time.

It may be said that with the immense number of existing monthlies there is no necessity for another It leans sleeved, however, that THE STRAND MAGAZINE will soon occupy a position which will justly its existence.

The past efforts of the Editor in supplying cheap, healthful literature have met with such generous favour from the public that he ventures to hope that this new enterprise will prove a popular one. He is conscious of many defects in the first issue, but will strive after improvement in the future.

Will those who like this number be so good as to assist, by making its merits, lf they are kind enough to thank that it has any, known to their friends.
