READABLE NOVZLEI.—Inhaling. By Georgina Lee. (Chatto and Windus. 6s.)—A modern

story of a marriage in which ship- wreck is threatened, but is averted by the genuine love which, in spite of disagreements, the husband and wife feel for each other. —Some Happenings of Glendalyne. By Dorothea Conyers. (Hutchinson and Co. 6s.)—A melodramatic Irish story about a young heiress and her wicked guardian.—Klaus Hinrich Baas. By Gustav Frenssen. (Macmillan and Co. 6s.)—A very long story translated from the German of how a German boy raises himself in the world. Students of German life will find it in- teresting.—The Charming Humbug. By Imogen Clark. (Methuen and Co. 6s.)—A story on the not very new theme of an heiress masquerading as a governess. It is brightly written, and, of course, ends well.--The Casement. By Frank Swinnerton. (Chatto and Windus. 6s.)—A modern story of temperaments, all of which are very cleverly delineated and none of which are very attractive.
