BOOKS AND AUTHORS.
The German edition of the hook. "Alfred Mond —First Lord Melchett," written by Hector Bolitho, has been prohibited' in Germany by the Reichsminister of the Interior. The edition was published in Vienna. The old boat-roofed house near Gravesend Canal which suggested Peggotty's hut in "David Copperfield'' is falling to pieces. Nothing has yet come' of the suggestion that'it should be re-erected as°a. Dickens relic in a local park. A new method in book production has been introduced in a work by one of the foremost scientists of the day, Dr. Max Born, entitled "The Pvestless Universe." which Blackie and Ron are bringing out. This original feature is an ingenious series of "moving pictures," tracing the actual course of certain phenomena in the life and structure of the universe. The illustrations also include a series of half-tone plates and about 120 line drawings. The whole book has been designed to show the ordinary man the meaning of some of the most epoch-making discoveries of modern science.
