The Secret of the Night. By GABTON LOUX, produced within the British Empire and

London: Eveleigh Nash.

The author of "The Lystery of the Yellow Room" has contrived a skilful plot out of the machinations of the Nihilists to compass the sassination of General Trébassof and the efforts of his devoted wife and official Russia to baffe Nihilist ingenuity. No. less a personage than the Tsar interests himself in defending the General, but the central figure of the story is Joseph Rouletabille, the youthful reporter of a Parisian journal, who suceerds in the most wonderful manner in straightening out the tangle when it seems to have got beyond the control of its creater. There is plenty of movement and excitement, and the author veils the dentement so cleverly going that it is impossible to foretell what is to happen. There is more than one thrillin most of the chapters, and the skill with which Rouletabille escapes from the Nihiliste, after being tried and condemned to, denth, is our own inimitable Sherlock worthy of Holmes:

in normal times large quantities are transhipped to Germany. Henceforth no supplies will be sent out of the country except under a licence. Presumably large quantities will continue to be shipped to our Allies. Within the last three months the value of the rubber sent to Russia largely, it is stated, for Army snow boots

as been enormous, and France will be able to take all that she wants.

Of about 2,000 tons lying at Antwerp t is understood that only 100 tons remained when the Germans took possession of the

port.

The prohibition of export means, among other things, that the representatives in London of American firms will not be able The United to fulfil their contracts. States herself requires large quantities of rabber, but there is reason to believe that rubber has been sent from this country to the United States and has been re-exported there to Germany vid Italy or Holland,

Although merchants in the United States at present will not be able to receive sup plies of plantation rubber through Lon- dou, there will still be the plantation a camera, a handy guide, phrased in corabber available. Brazil annually exports prehensible terms, becomes a necessity for

about 40,000 tons, of which rather more everyone who wishes to derive the greatest than half comes to this country, and rather amount of enjoyment from his or her snap- shotting. The fact that this guide has reached its third edition is evidence that it is appreciated, and we can recommend it unreservedly. Its author has set himself the task of providing the amateur with a friend "who will guide him along the simplest and pleasantest paths in the photographic forest, preventing him from tripping and falling into the many pitfalls that beset his way, and, haring assisted him through his early struggles to a point where he can walk by himself, will leave him fired with the ambition to proceed further with his explorations. Formule have been introduced as sparingly as possible, so avoiding confusion and those that have been of necessity included are old and tried friends." Everything that the amateur need know is included in this small and cheap treatise.

Werner Laurie.

Barry Pain never fails to be amusing, and in this broad extravaganza he is at his best. As a parody of our old friend Old Mebre," it leaves nothing to be desired and very little to the imagination. Needless to say, it is not meant to be taken seriously, so it is not necesary to suggest that the war can have any effect upon its many startling predic tions, Golf players who Bud the local links more than “sporting" will read with interest the advertisement of The Magnetic Golf- Course Hanwell, which announces Steel- cored balls and a magnetised fairway. Once- on the green the ball holes itself. Wrong directions impossible. Como and improve. your handicap. This links is more dikely to become popular than the Custos Finsk, which has made people swear who never swore before as a piece of innocent: fooling this comic calendar, with its amus ng illustrations, will raise a smile on the stiffest upper lip.

Normally German liners share with Calves' British vessels the carriage of the rubber from Para; to day there are only British ships to carry it. Any attempts to ship the rubber by different routes finnediately become known.

It would bo well for people in the United States to realize that there is no occasion for them to suffer the slightest incon vonionce through the decision to exercise

control over rubber which reaches this country. Possibly the United States Government will see its way to undertake that no supplies shall be re-exported, and in that case, no doubt, an exception to the rule would at once be made.
