The Burglar's Accomplice. By "Beeehwood." (S.P.C.K.)—The hero of the tale

is one Richard Dalby, and the personality and career of Richard make up an interesting narrative stirring enough to fascinate the greediest of young readers. We are intro- duced to a celebrated burglar, and the tragic element in the story is centred in the fate of this clever villain. There is a stern moral conveyed in the story, and it will delight boys with the succession of various and striking incidents. The Burglar's Accom- plice is distinctly a book for boys.
