Now for a Story. By various Authors. (Skeffington and Son.)

—This "collection of abort original stories for children" contains eighteen contributions. Among the names of authors we find those of Mrs. Molesworth, Mr. Ascott Hope, Mrs. L. '1'. Meade, Mrs. Macquoid, and Mr. G. Manville Fenn. The volume is of a kind to which it is difficult to do justice. A separate notice of each story is impossible. We may mention Mr. Penn's "Wreckers of Pendarvan" and Mr. Ascott Hope's "Toby's Tale," and generally recommend the collection of tales.
