These are unusually interesting. The supposed ghost, which turns out to be a clock whirring, excites breathless interest. The last story is better fitted for mothers than children. =98.

(National Society) 2_s._ This calls itself a child’s romance, and has some exciting adventures. =100. My Great Aunt’s Cat.= (S.P.C.K.) 2_d._ A droll and wholesome warning against false excuses. =101.
