(Greening and Co. 6s.)—A Scotch story in which the heroine is a farmer's daughter.—Angel Esquire. By Edgar Wallace. (J. W. Arrowsmith, Bristol. 3s. 6d.) —A rather lurid melodrama, in which the Scotland Yard official who detects all the crimes is a most bland and gentlemanly person. —The Heart of a Butterfly. By Eileen Fitzgerald. (Hutchinson and Co. 6s.) —A love story pure and simple, not without interest in its way. —The Land of the Living. By Maude Radford Warren. (Harper and Brothers. 6s.)—A good story of Irish-American life. Political corruption is a side-issue. The love element is well managed.—The Claimant. By Weatherby Chesney. (Chatto and Windus. 6s.)—An ingeniously contrived story, if we allow a little of the improbable.—Mr. Saffery's Disciple. By Parry Truscott. (T. Werner Laurie. 6s.)—A clover study of character, marred by some faults.
