WORLD'S BOOKS.

NAMING THE TEN VERY

BEST.

Mr. H G. Wells has been giving in John London Weekly list of the ten most important books in the world. We give a few stray letters on the subject which have not reached us at the time of going to press

ملصيه

THE CHINA

Sir, There is one book for me that takes the place of the world's ten best. Doves and Their Habits."-Yours tranquilly, Bonar

Law.

Sir, The best ten books are my last ten published works. What Wells thinks makes no difference.

Yours modestly, G. B. Shaw.

Sir, I see Mr. Wells includes among his Ten Greatest Books "The Travels of Marco Polo." I have

"Paradise been reading Regained." It fills me with new hope. Yours humbly, LL.-G...

Sir, Instead of including The Book of Isaiah in Mr. Wells' list I should have preferred to see The Lamentations of Jeremiah.-Yours tmly, W. R. Inge ("The Gloomy Dean").

Sir, A1the moment I can only think of one really important book

in two volumes. There may be a third in due course if I can find the tinte.Yours truly, Margot.

Sir, I have not read any of the Ten Greatest Books in Wells' list, but I observe he does not meation that great work, "The Archicortex of the Cerebral Hemispheres."-- Yours, Haldane.

Sir,-After Mr. Wells has read his Ten Greatest Books I think he will like "Thereby Hings a Tale,” by Yours Truly, George Robey.

P.S.-I have sent him a copy. Sir, I think everyone will agree with me that the following books are indispensable.

Ruff's Guide to the Turf. Wisden's Cricket Almanac. Hoyle on Games.

SPORTSMAN.

Sir, Fifteen years ago I read "How to

be Happy Though Married," since when I have read no other.-Yours doubtfully, Jane Cuddlcmce (Mrs.).
