Sufragetto Sally. By G. Couroux. London:
Stanley Paul & Co.
The ordinary man is inclined to flee from the propaganda norel-tho novel with a too obvious purpose. We must confess that we left Suf-· fragette Sally" to the last of a batch before we ventured to open it; but having done so we were agruenbly surprised to find it so absorbing in intorest. It is not only well writion, better written, in fact, than a large number of the books that are being turned out by the printing press, but' its author knows how to blend the human interest with an exposition of the cause of those who advocate female suffrage, so that the love interest is mover lost nor the advocacy of his cause tiresome. Salig-is-n-domestic servant; A "gnnéral," in a shopkeeper's family in Islington. She is drawn into the movement, and had some stirring adventures in her brief life, and welay the | book wide with a fooling of doopregret that the- author deems it necessary that this poor, strng. gling atom of humanity, who has a soal above tho sordid drudgery of her daily We, should have to die for the canso she has so much at heart. One of the principal characters is a Lady Henry Hill, who in her single personality is made to represent more than one of the suffragette party, * Cyril Raco, a member of the Liberal Cabinet, personifies more than one leading politician of the day: But ull classes are represented, and we are made to understand more thoroughly the strength of the feeling that has prompted Indies

With the Lost Legion in New Zealanıb. By Col· onel G. HAMILTON-BROWE(Maori Browne), with Twelve Portraits and Illustrations London T. Werner Lauric.
-Tu-a characteristis preface-the-auth-or-of-this fooinole of history disarms the critic who would venture upon a criticism of his literary style. There is no need for apology, however. Wo feel as wo read those pages that we are face to face with the perils its author has faced, that we are dealing with real flesh and blood, men who have lived and starved and fought and died in one corner of this world-wide Empire of ours not with the lifeless automita too often created by the needy novelist in his sparsely furnished attic in a London suburb. Forty years apeut on the frontiers of the Empira in fighting and pioneer work is no preparation for the production of literaturo, yet we would rather have Colorel Browna's rough-hewn sentoacas, with their full-blooded adjectives, tháu the more polished phrases of à man who has no story to |-tell-aut terke to take up for neagrozess by
finely-turned rhetorie.
It has been our good fortune to read some-“ thing of the Crimeau war, the Jadian Mutiny, the wars in Chian, and all the subsequent wars and petty-oncowaters_in which British arma kovo been engaged during the, past century, but never till now have we road ng account of the Bghting in New Zealand between 1860 and 187. The diffloalties encountered by the ragulars and colonial fraps remind, one some." what of the conditions encountered by the Americans in the Philippine Islands, and one is inclined to agree with Colonel Browns that the prolongation of the struggle with tha natives was due more to the so-called humani- - terians who-aro-ever-randy-to-fight-with-their tongues, hint less raady to descend into the srens of battle and muko first-hand aaquaintanna"with the conditions the soldiers have to fans.
