After the Death. By Lilian Whiting. (Sampson Low, Marston, and

Co.)—It makes all the difference in the world whether af book of this kind is a record of personal experiences or an imagination. A writer should state this by way of preface, and should add—it is necessary to say—that the statement is not a. literary artifice. The purport of the book is that there may be a real communion between the living and the dead. We do not deny its possibility, but that it is, or can be, a common experience we doubt. Since man was, the universal complaint is "there comes no whisper of reply."
