THE Scorrisii COMPANION. Edited by Rhoda Spence. (Richard Paterson, 15s.)

DESIGNED as a `book to he congenial to the hours between waking and sleeping,' this mis- cellany of Scottish writings is the first offering of a new Scottish publisher. An agreeable and entertaining miscellany, it may be said to hit the Christmas present target in the wame.
