Some of the scenes are highly picturesque, and there is many an exciting adventure that sustains the reader’s curiosity in the fortunes of the hero, Cleanor.

Paris at Bay: A Story of the Siege and the Commune. By Herbert Hayens. With 8 page Illustrations by Stanley L. Wood. 5s.
“The story culminates in the terrible struggle between the Versaillists and the men who follow the red flag. Mr. Hayens holds the balance with commendable impartiality.
