tion could prosper, are "_Lovers in London_," by A.A.
Milne, brightest and most promising of the younger humorists, and
"_The Loot of Cities_," by Mr. Arnold Bennett, the mere name of whom
is a sufficient guarantee of entertainment. As for general literature,
"_The Soul of London_," by Ford Madox Hueffer, may be justly described
as worthy of a place in every library. The author in his introduction,
remarks that he has tried to make the book anything rather than
encyclopaedic, topographical, or archaeological, and beyond that
somewhat negative phrase it is difficult to give any more complete
designation to the work. For the treatment of the subject is
altogether original, this attraction being intensified by the
particularly graceful style in which a remarkable gift of observation
finds expression.
