The article presents information on some books. "Aulnay Tower," by Blanche Howard has had not undeservedly some pleasant commendation. In "Aulnay Tower," the treatment is too light for the gravity of the subject. of the opera buffed jars. France and Germany is in deadly struggle and, against this grim background, love of country, pride of race, honor, vainly struggling against the sweep of passion, make no genteel comedy, but a black, bitter tragedy. "Colonel Enderby's Wife," by Lucas Malet. It is skilful in the setting of a piece; that creates out of glimpses of landscape, bits of interiors and fragments of toilet an attractive surrounding in which readers are prepared to watch with attentive sympathy the action of the story.
