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. ~The Novel of the Season~ * * * * * ~THE HOUSE OF MERRILEES~. 6/- By ARCHIBALD MARSHALL, _Author of "Peter Binney, Undergraduate_" * * * * * "The ~best mystery novel~ since Sir A. Conan Doyle's 'Sign of Four.'"--_Daily Graphic_. "Can recommend cordially and with confidence to those who like a ~really good story~, well constructed and excellently told."--_Punch_. "A really satisfactory tale of mystery is always ~sure of its welcome~, and 'The House of Merrilees' ought to secure wide popularity."--_Daily Mail_. "~Great ingenuity~ is shown in the way in which clue is crossed by counter-clue."--_The Daily Telegraph_. "It is a pleasure to praise a book of this kind, and rare to find one in which ~a narrative of absorbing interest~ is combined with so many literary graces."--_The Bookman_. "A very ~engrossing story~."--_Graphic_. "The ~best story~ of its kind we have read for years."--_Guardian_.
