OUR BOOKING-OFFICE.
Not much time for books this week, says the Baron; just been able to glance at W. S. Lilly's Right and Wrong: verdict—so far, all right, nothing wrong. Sharp chapter on journalism—severe, but not unjust. Picked up small book, for which inquire at W. H. Smith's bookstalls, Four Thousand Years After, by Helen L. Chevalier. Baroness having read it, highly recommends it in hot weather, as being a weird, mystical legend, of a soothing and interesting character, commencing a few years before "Adam delved and Eve span," and finishing in the time of steam yachts; so that it is brought right up to date. It is full of incident and picturesque description. I see Mr. Farjeon has been at it again with the Mystery of M. Felix. Felix—Happy Thought. Mr. Harry Furniss's Academy Antics is entertaining reading, and some of the earlier illustrations are quite Gilrayish in their breadth of style, not of subject.
