Free Lance Journalism. By Basil Tozer. (Arthur Sykes. 2s) —Mr.

Tozer instructs his readers "how to embark" upon "Free Lance Journalism," by which is meant writing for any journal that may choose to accept contributions without being regularly attached to any, and how "to make it pay." One piece of advice is " Don't pay a premium for being introduced "; another is '' Don't write more than 2,500 words per day." "Read all the newspapers you can," says our author ; that seems a high price to pay, even for a fortune. Generally, Mr. Tozer's counsel seems judicious.
