* * * In our next issue a new literary

feature will be added to the Spectator. Under the title of " A Book of the Moment," Mr. St. Loe Strachey will each week take a new book of importance as the subject for an " Essay- review " or Literary Causerie. The change, indeed, will not be great, for Mr. Strachey has, as our readers know, usually reviewed the most important hook of the week, but several of our readers have asked that this review might become a regular feature.
