By Barry Pain. (Martin Seeker. 6s.)—There are two sketches in this book of great merit and excellent humour; otherwise, it is amusing enough, but by no means a worthy successor to the great E/isa.—Stories of India. By Rose Reinhardt Antbon. (William Heinemann. 68.)—Miss Anthon's collec- tion of Hindu stories is in danger of being a little monotonous; but the matter of some, and the writing of all, are delightful. —The Judgment of the Sword.
