    From Messrs . Alexander & Shepheard . —* The Care of the Skin , ' by F . A . Cox , M . B . In this little book—written by the physician of the

    Western Skin Hospital—a brief outline is given of the functions of the skin , and a number of practical hints are given for its hygienic

    man agement . The work makes no pretensions J O to be a guide to the medical treatment of skin diseases , for that , of course , requires in every

    case correct diagnosis , and , in most , professional skill . Prevention , however , is always better than cureand if the directions as to diet

    bathing , clo ' , thing , & c , which are here given — are , followed , the preservation of the health of the 3 kin will in the majority of cases be secured .

    From Mr . J . W . Arrowsmith . —* Bound by Love ; or , The Lost Ring , ' by E . V . D . The first two or three chapters of this novel are full of

    promise and raise keen expectations . Disappointment ws and continues , however to , the shortl end y of arises the , book and . gro

    The impression is created that the author did not quite know his own mind as to the best method of utilising the * sad occurrence' quoted

    from a newspaper on the opening page . This uncertainty is shown by the disjointed and slipshod arrangement of the greater part of

    his story . The pith of the novel is the ardent affection of two . young men—a veritable David

    and Jonathan—for each other , which , when a period j- — of of mutual separation — j — devotion arrive - and s , j is - solemn ratified - _~ — — by . v j ^ a jy

    sen vow timentalcomact that each a would , though a ring containing , p the portrait of the other wear and

    opened by a secret spring known only to , the wearer . One ring , on the death of its owner ,

    is is sa saoredlv credly treasured treasured by bv the the wido widow w , . and anH the tho other is stolen , together with the finger of the _ - ^^—^^ m ^ wearer - _ ¦ — — — — " —— , V in " ~~ - — — a railwa - — - — — — — y a accident - — — — ___ . The _ . _ _ bond w ^ r - ^^ — ^ ^ J ^

    of friendship is at length , however , * consummated in the sweetest way ' by the marriage of the daughter of the surviving friend with

    the son of the deceased man . The o novel contains sufficient interest to beguile the tedium of a three hours' railway journey .

    From Mr . Spencer Blackett . — ' Pauline , ' by L . B . Walford . This is a new edition of an attractive novel characterised by some excellent

    features . Apart from the well-constructed plot and the cleverness of the dialogue in many portions of the work , there is a fine breezy

    aspect in these pages . The descriptions of homely scenes and their surroundings in nature are invariably well doneand calculated

    , to draw out the reader's sympathies . Indeed ,, the whole work is as fresh as the hills and the sea about which the author writes . The

    chapters about the Hebrides are particularly good . From From MM MM . Boussod Boussod . Valadon Valadon _ & A Co Co ... 116 116 and and
