THE “REVIEW OF REVIEWS.” Nothing better in the way of magazines edd be ,fq.i>nd than the May number of the “ Kevietf c*.f Reviews ” which is just to hand. It ii aft admirable compilation, and strikes the reader favourably upon turning over, its pages even casually. The present number supasses even those of late ismes, and that is saying a great deal. Following the “ History of the Mouth ’’ there at'e iritergs'ing articles oil the achievement of" Astronomical Photography ’’ and “ The Krupp Works irl Germany,” whilst the interesting article on the transformation of plants and flowers, which was commenced in April issue, is eontinued. One ot the main features of the May number is an exceedingly well-gdt-Up and readable article on the Aborigines Of Central Australia, by Captain H. V. Barclay, the head of an exploring I expedition. The question of the. treatment of aborigines is also dealt* with and a remedy suggested. Interesting interviews with notable persons by both the Australasian and English editors appear. The local ones are with Senator Smith on New Guinea, and Dr MacDonald on the New Hebrides; while the English are with Dr Nansen on the Scandinavian difficulty, and Mr Quention Ashlyn on the Torray Alexander Revival. The character sketch is of Lord Milner and Lord Selborne, the late and present South African High Commissioners. The book of the month is Mrs Humphrey’s Ward’s " Marriage of William Ashe.” In addition to these there are the London “ Punch ” Pidures, and the current history of the month in caricature. The standard features, of the magazine are more than up to the mark. The leading article's m the world’s magazines and the digest of the contents of them under the heading “ Reviews Reviewed,” occupies a considerable portion of the magazine. A full page is occupied with a list ot the leading books published during the month, and should be invaluable to all lovers of literature. Altogether the magazine is in every way worthy of its good name, and speaks well for its future under the editorship of Mr W. H. Judkins.
