My Bonnie Lady. By Leslie Keith. (Jarrold and Sons.)—There is

a great feud between the Mintos and the Iuglises, the first family having gone down in the world owing, they think, to the machinations of the second. The "Bonnie Lady" undertakes to reconcile them. Her plan is to go as a servant into one of the houses. It does not look very probable, but as it seems to deceive no one it may be allowed to pass. However that be, "Leslie Keith" has made a very pretty stOry out df it. We must own that

much of it is as remote from life as Valerie Douglas's plan, but it is good to read for all that.
