The Girl of the Pampas, by Bessie Merchant (Blackie, Os.

net), Is an interesting story of life on an estancia in the Argentine, and of adventures among the Indians.-Angel Unawares, by Queenie Scott-Hopper (Harrap, 6s. net), is concerned with a village on the Borders. The heroine helps to settle a long- standing dispute about property by finding a long lost parish register. There is an old miser up in a tower who lends a touch of strangeness to the story.
