A Pair of Red Polls. By Mabel Quiller-Couch. (T. C.

and E. C. Jack. 2s.)—The title of this story for girls alludes, as may bo supposed, to the colour of their hair. The boy and girl are nice children, and the grandparents all that a grandfather and grandmother ought to be. It is a slight but well-written story adapted for quite young people; but the author is perfectly able to write something stronger than this, and we trust she will.
