This Troublesome World. By the Authors of "The Medicine Lady."

3 vols. (E. Arnold.)—There was more of the strange than of the interesting in "The Medicine Lady," and the same will, we think, be said by most readers of the tale which claims the same authorship. The name of one of these "authors" escapes our memory; that of Mrs. L. T. Meade we remember. To her, therefore, we would say that she has done much better work than this complicated and improbable tale.
