(FROM STANLEY PAUL AND CO., LONDON)
“THE CASE AND THE GIRL,” by Randolph Parrish. Adventure and mystery, a vigorous captain fresh from the war, very chivalrous withal, and a veiled lady m trouble set the ball rolling, and gunfights, impersonations and thrills keep it going with the help of the New York underworld. The multiplicity of incidents reveals a fertility or imagination that could easily pack a dozen books. “THE DECEPTION OF URSULA,” by Edith Nepean. The tyranny of parents has kept many novelists busy. This one trying her hand at the tyranny of daughters makes a clever story. “THE EXPECTATION AUNT,” by E. Everett Green. The lady is wealthy, and therefore the cause of expectation among her numerous relatives. Returning to netown country after many years, she wishes to test the strength of their affection for her. She makes the test under a disguise. The result is very amusing.
