In this dramatic work, the author of "She" makes a new departure. Instead of planing hin obaracters in lauds remote from civilization and subjecting them to indecos of the most re arkable and unprecedented nature, he has her written an English treasure story of the present day. The hero is a soldier in the British army,
Yer of the Victoris Cross, who returns home from the recent operations in the Sends, to exchange the perils and privations of warfare in the desert for a series of sensational incidents) among plossent English landscapes, and the ultimate reward et an ancestral home brightened raz by the beauty of a comely brida. The plot is well contrived, there is strong individualisation in the chameters; the same are depioted with 遨
clearness and a warm glow of local colour, walls the main incidents are worked unt with power, Not even in "King Solomon's Wines," when si OF Irungo is affected into the mysterious chamber, is the thrill greater than shou Colonel Quaritol unearthy the treasure, hidden away from Crom 1583we's soldiers, the recovery of which savor an
