How Alf. was finally persuaded by his friend that the button was a priceless treasure, into what ludicrous situations the two pals were led by the well-meaning but old-fashioned and thoroughly oriental Djinn of the Button, we must leave the reader to find out ; but we defy him to read, without chuckling, the account of AIL 's mysteriOUE! disease contracted solely as a result of the Djinn's inability to understand collo­ quialisms of the modern West. The story of the vicar's wife's visit to the oriental palace, where for a time the two friends liYed together is equally entertaining. We can heartily recommend the book to all who want an amusing afternoon in armchair or punt, in the company of light and humorous literature, and we congratulate a former editor of The Eagle on a piece of work of which his old-time contributions gave us a foretaste and which will add to the gaiety (let us hope) of nations.
