Wayside India. By Maud Power. (Downey and Co., Water- ford.

21s. net.)—Miss Power relates her Indian experiences in a lively fashion, not without a certain tone of satire when she comes to describe the manners and customs of the British. On the whole, the pen-and-ink pictures are effective, and, we do not doubt, faithful ; the sketches, which are by the same hand, show an elegance which seems not altogether to accord with the somewhat unconventional letterpress.—The Tourist's India, by Eustace Reynolds-Ball (Swan Sonnenschein and Co., 10s. 6d.), is a businesslike guide from which the traveller may learn whither he is to go and how, what he should seek to see, where he may lodge, and at what cost—in fact, may see the numberless things that are worth seeing.
