More and more is Eleanor Mordaunt claiming the attention of the reading
public, but it is doubtful whether any of her other books have surpassed
"Rosemary" for sheer charm and attractiveness. It is a blue sky book,
full of cheerfulness and good nature. It tells of an Englishwoman who
spends a quiet year in Australia, and who describes the procession of
the seasons and how they appeal to her. The chapters are all
interesting, and cannot be exhausted by a single reading. This is a book
that is always fresh. Open it anywhere and it arrests you at once.
"It is a delightful book, written in a most refreshing style. It is so
full of sunny and happy thoughts, so suggestive of all that is best in
life that one lingers over its pages."--_Birmingham Daily Post._

GINGER TALKS ON BUSINESS
BY W. C. HOLMAN.
_Price, 5/-; posted, 5/4._
Crown 8vo, extra cloth gilt, 235 pages, with 15 full-page cartoons,
illustrating the principles of Salesmanship, which the "Talks" explain.
In these days of commercial activity, business is becoming such a
profession that it needs preparation and study to cope successfully with
the problems of success.
"Ginger Talks" is as helpful a text-book as one could possibly get, but
it differs from many text-books in that it is fascinating reading. It
abounds in good humour, hopefulness and brilliant interesting talk; talk
that is practical, helpful and human.
