PUBLICATIONS RECEIVED. We have received from Mr John Murray, London, two neatly.-got-up red books on "Physical Training, Swedish Exercises. Games, Swimming, Diving, and Life-sav-ing.” They are of the Imperial Army series for schools and cadet corps, the one being for juniors and the other for seniors, and the net publishing price is Is. The Junior Course covers the instruction of boys from seven to 12 years of age, and the Senior Course in turn leads up to the physical training of the soldier and of adults generally. It is intended for youths of from 12 to 18 years of ago. The instruction, with necessary modifications, will serve for the training of both sexes within the age limits specified. In view of the Parliamentary inquiry now proceeding concerning the qualifications of the recently-appointed head of physical training for schools, the little books will doubtless have a special interest for many. In an introductory chapter the value of physical training is dealt with. The appliances necessary are enumerated and expJained, and a chapter is devoted to Physical Training Course and Displays, followed by another on Hygiene and Cleanliness. Then come the tables of exercises, which are fully explained in the letterpress and the illustrations, many of the latter showing incorrect positions as well as those which are correct. The instructions for swimming, diving, nnd life-saving are also illustrated. While, the books must prove most useful to instructors, tliev will he found especially valuable to pupils.

Cassell’s Magazine Of Fiction for August, now before us. is claimed to be the largest magazine in the world. It is certainly a surprising publication for the modest 6d. which is the publishing price. An article of much interest to the overseas dominions is that on **('misers,” in which the arming of liners is discussed, the writer contending that this move is the only efficient method of protecting trade routes. Mr H. G. Wells's article, entitled "The Future as Fixed as the Past,” is sure to arrest attention. Naturally much space is devoted to fiction in a fiction magazine. Jl. P. Hanshaw contributes a story entitled ‘‘Luzanne’s Little Coup.” and ‘‘The Investigations of Lady Muriel,” by Lloyd Williams, commences a series which promises well. Andrew Soutar, Captain Shaw. Claire I’ollexfen, and a number of other prominent writers contribute short stories, while Violet Methloy has a long complete novel. “The Mistakes Lady Golfers Make” is a specially illustrated article by Gladys RavenserofL the lady golf champion. Humour and the photographic art are nor overlooked. Our copy conies from Messrs Gordon and Goteh.

The Girl’s Realm for July (fid) is up to the usual high standard, it is a monthly which can safely be introduced into every home, and appears to contain everything in the way of reading which the girl m to-day requires. .Stories, articles, and illustrations are alike attractive and entertaining. Its varied contents account for the favour in which the Girl's Realm is held. We have to acknowledge receipt of the \\ ire less World, a monthly illustrated magazine dealing with matters of interest toad concerned with wireless telegraphy. The hints to amateurs will no doubt be interesting to many.

The Windsor Magazine for August is rn attractive number. There is a second large instalment of Gertrude Rigo’snew novel of Rhodesian life, “The Pathway,” which promises to be a fascinating story. The other serial, “ The Fortunes of Virgirmia Bright,” maintains its interest. “ The Open Road,” Mr H. Sutcliffe’s romance, is continued. Among the complete short stories is an attractive comedy by Doonford Yitcs and an original little drama by Harold Whitaker. Among the articles is a Nature study by Mr C. G. D. Roberts, a survey of “The Prob,em of Mam,” and an estimate of “The Practical Outcome of lUiskinism.” The fine art feature of the number is an article on the work of that great nineteenth century artist, Sir John Gilbert. R.A.. which is accompanied by some 18 reproductions from iiis pictures, including a finely-printed coloured plate from his famous picture, “ The Taming of the Shrew,” in the Birmingham Art Gallery. The illustrations are numerous and good.
