capital story this. David Sheldon with his can- nibal plantation hands and Joan Lackiand make a quite admirable hero and heroine. What a picture of life in Melanesia !—A Woman on the Threshold.

By A. St. John Adcock. (Stanley Paul and Co. 138.)—A good story with plenty of movement, comic and serious, in it. What a benefit to fiction the invention of typewriting bas been !—Perpetua.
