WANDERING WOOD.
The heroine of "Wandering Wood" is a Mew Zealander named Erena, whose discovery of England with her father, in response to an advertisement, for the descendants of her grandmother, is given with a disarming freshness by Elizabeth Milton. Opposed to Erena is a wicked cousin, Cynthia Travers, duly punished by the loss of a certain barrister, John Chclverson, who is nicknamed by Erena "The Pouncer." She repents, however, of this soubriquet, and employs a volume of Tennyson, with an adroitness worthy of more- mellowed times, to bring herself and John together as a suitably happy ending for a simple story which manages somehow or other not to be tedious. (Mills and Boon.)
