READABLE \over•.—lfarriage While You Wail. By J. E. Buelerose. (Hodder
and Stoughton. Oanet.)—An account of a young couple who, having contracted a war marriage on a very slight acquaintance, find that certain difficulties arise when they settle down to everyday life in an exceedingly dull country place, Young couples in similar circumstances might usefully read the book, although of course they will eagerly repudiate the idea of similar difficulties arising in their own ease.—C'aplai Kettle's Bit. By C. J. Cuteliffe Hyne. (Same publishers and price.)—The West Coast of Africa is once more the scene of Captain Kettle's exploits, but he lin& himself there as the representative of a new Government Department for the control of kola-nut. Needless to say, he does not confine his energies to his own business, but indulges in various adventures by water, land, and air. The credulity even of Captain Kettle's admirers is a little strained by the interview with the Kaiser which occurs towards the end of the book.
