“The Glorious Oyster,” by Hector Bolitho, a New Zealand novelist, published by Knopl', is a guide to right eating, a history, and a song of praise, from which we learn of the oyster’s history in Home and in Britain, of bis anatomy and reproduction, with recipes for eating him alive or cooked. A happy chapter is an anthology of the oyster, in which are collected the praise of sages since Roman days. Mr Maurice Burton has collaborated with some scientific contributions. Child at Willesden: My mummy threw a flowerpot at the,man. The Mother: But it missed. Solicitor: Women generally do miss.
