Pleasant domestic comedy plentifully garnished wiHi sentiment ana redolent generally of homely humour is provided by Mary Thompson Davics, in her short story, "Tlio Melting of Molly" (Bobbs. Morrill Co., per George Robertson and Co.). It is written in" the great American language, and such sentences: "No wonder A 1 didn't succeed at bank clerking, but had to make his hit at diplomacy and tho high arts," and "Soino hit at that to.bo legationed at SK James's," may prove a little baffling to the average English reader. But tho adventures of the plump and pleasing young widow, airs. Molly, and lior four suitors aro nono tho less very entertaining. Somo crudely-drawn and even more crudely-reproduced . illustrations uad been better omitted.
