Much of the work is due to the teaching of the occult master with whom
Mr. Sinnett claims to be in touch. It cannot be doubted that even the
most sceptical reader will be thrilled and impressed by more than one of
the chapters of this remarkable and fascinating book.

"The Road to a Healthy Old Age." Crown 8vo, cloth.
5s. 0d. NET Inland Postage 4d.
Dr. Scott, who is well known for his skill as a physician, offers here a

Revelations of Monte Carlo Roulette. By J. COUSINS LAWRENCE. Crown
8vo, cloth. (Spring, 1920.)
3s. 6d. NET. Inland Postage, 4d.
Mr. Lawrence has had an extensive experience in studying roulette
playing at Monte Carlo, and the result is an accumulation of evidence
supporting his accusation of unfair control on the part of the bank in
the notorious Casino. The book is a full and descriptive account of the
methods of croupiers in dealing with players, of the observation
maintained by the officials over both croupiers and the players. The
work is full of typical incidents, tragic and amusing, observed on the
spot.
Blind Alley. By W. L. GEORGE. Author of "The Second Blooming," etc.
Crown 8vo. (Second Impression.)
9s. 0d. NET Inland Postage 6d.
"A powerful piece of work, and is at once a protest against the
exploitation of youth by age and an attempted demonstration that war and
all its activities are spiritual blind alleys from which we merely have
to grope back to the position from which we started."--PALL MALL
GAZETTE.
"It is an indictment in detail, a display of follies and festivities, a
protest against the past stifling the future, a stirring of muddy
depths."--MANCHESTER GUARDIAN.
"It strikes us being so far its author's high watermark."--DAILY
CHRONICLE.
"We ate tempted to say that 'Blind Alley' is the greatest character
study of the influence of the war we have read."--LADIES' FIELD.
Pink Roses. By GILBERT CANNAN. Author of "Mendel," "The Stucco
House," etc. Crown 8vo, cloth. (Second Impression.)
7s. 6d. NET. Inland Postage 6d.
"Character and atmosphere are the qualities of Mr. Gilbert Cannan's new
novel, and they revel through its pages like a riot of pink roses....
Ruth Hobday symbolises the new generation, who have learnt in suffering
what they will realise in joy. Mr. Cannan has done nothing better than
the portrait of this splendid type of young womanhood. Indeed, we are
inclined to doubt if he has ever done anything as good."--DAILY
TELEGRAPH.
The Candidate's Progress. By J. A. FARRER. Crown 8vo, cloth, with a
picture wrapper.
7s. 6d. NET. Inland Postage 6d.
