The Wild Lass of Estmere, and other Stories. By M.

Bramston. (Seeley.)—This volume contains seven stories, touched with the skill and grace which Miss Bramston never fails to give to her work. "The Women's Revolt," an Italian story of how the women of a certain village resent the removal of their priest by his superiors, and make the place too hot for his successor, is, perhaps, as good as any. "A Modern Girl" has a moral which, if morals are ever of any good, might do some service in these days.
