Dot - and - Go - One. By M. Blanche Hayward. (Religious Tract Society.)—This is a

very agreeable and thoroughly original story of a hunch-backed cripple and waif, who is " saved," and introduced to a reasonable amount of material happiness, by his love of music, which takes him into a church. Poor Dot-and-Go- One is not selfish, and sets successfully about saving his chief tormentor, "Carrots." This is most emphatically a religious story, but there is yet nothing in it that savours of mawkishness.
