SOMA BOOKS OF THE WEEK.

[Under this heading we notice such Books of the week as have not been reserved for review in Oho' forms.] Memoirs " are written with good taste. King Edward's education, his Ale as a Constitutional Monarch, his ways as a host and a guest—some people might be disturbed by a King going with them to their room and seeing that they had a good fire—as a sportsman whether on the racecourse or on the moors, are described in an agreeable and discreet manner. Mrs. B. S. Woolf adds a pleasant chapter about Queen Alexandra.—With this may be mentioned The Golden Book of King Edward VII. (Hodder and Stoughton, Is. net), giving some of the King's "wise and kindly words."
