Widow Wiley and Some Other Old Folk. By Brown Linnet.

(Seeley and Co. 5s) —This volume gives us sixteen vivid little pictures of country things and country people, illustrated by some photographs. which are as good in their way as anything

that we have seen. The humour is of varying breadths, so to spear. No. 9, where the genteel Miss Hurst, who has hidden under the sofa for fear of the thunder, is surprised by some push- ing neighbours, would do very well for a farce. Altogether the book is entertaining and thoroughly wholesome; we hope to see something more of " Brown Linnet."
