THE EMPIRE ANNUAL FOR BOYS. (R.T.S. Os. net.)

In The Empire Annual for Boys we have capital school and adventure stories interspersed with articles on games and swimming and other things of interest to boys, by various writers. The stories are well written and carry the reader along, whether the scene is laid in a school of the present day, in the England of the past, or in a far-away country. There are two particularly good tiger stories, the first of which is told with no little humour, and the reader hardly knows whether to laugh or shudder at the strange spectacle of the tiger apparently in charge of a remote Indian railway station. The spirited letterpress deserves more amusinn illustrations.
