FROM THEIR POINT OF VIEW.
By M. LOANE,
Author or 'The Next Street but One,' 'The Queen's Poor,' etc.
Crown 8vo. 6s.
Miss Loane is a district nurse; she has lived among the poor and for the poor; she knows the society of the poor from the inside, yet she comes in from the outside, consequently she sees closely enough to descry details accurately.
This new book, full of real knowledge, common sense, and robust humour, is urgently recommended to the attentive perusal of all men and women who are interested in the problem of life among the poor. Miss Loane has a great gift for telling anecdotes, and employs it with effect in the present instance.

THE QUEEN'S POOR. Life as they find it in Town and Country. By M. Loane. New and Cheaper Edition. Crown 8vo., 3s. 6d.
Sir Arthur Clay, Bart., says of this book: 'I have had a good deal of experience of "relief" work, and I have never yet come across a book upon the subject of the "poor" which shows such true insight and such a grasp of reality in describing the life, habits, and mental attitude of our poorer fellow-citizens. . . . The whole book is not only admirable from a common-sense point of view, but it is extremely pleasant and interesting to read, and has the great charm of humour.'

OUT OF CHAOS. A Personal Story of the Revolution in Russia. By Prince Michael Trubetzkoi. Crown 8vo., 6s. This book, which is a nightmare of spies and passports, of underground printing presses and smuggled literature, of hideous anxieties and hairbreadth escapes, gives a lurid picture of modern Russia from the reformer's point of view.
THE MYSTERY OF MARIA STELLA, LADY NEWBOROUGH. By Sir Ralph Payne-Gallwey, Bart. Demy 8vo. With over 20 Illustrations and a Photogravure Frontispiece. 7s. 6d. net. The strange story of Maria Stella is one of the most interesting of unsolved mysteries. Whether she was Princess or peasant, a Bourbon of France or a humble Chiappini of Tuscany, is a problem still unsettled, and upon its issue depends the real identity of the child who afterwards became Louis Philippe, King of France.
