STORM AND SUNSHINE IN SOUTH AFRICA.
By Rosamond Southey. Edited by Frances Slaughter. With
Illustrations. Demy 8vo.

This book has the merit of being written from the inside of the political
and social life of South Africa. With near relatives holding important posts
in the Government of Cape Colony, and with many relations and friends holding
appointments in the country, Miss Southey has been able to make the most of
her unusual gifts of observation, both in describing the life at Cape Town and
in the up-country towns and farms. An expedition made by her sister, Mrs.
Bruce Steer, alone through Zululand, and her experiences during the late war,
are also given. General Sir John Dartnell, K.C.B., C.M.G., and Colonel
George Mansel, C.M.G., contribute accounts of fishing and lion-shooting
expeditions, and the history of the Nongai, or Zululand Native Police, as well
as of the Natal Police.

INDIA AND TIBET. Being a History of the
Relations which have subsisted between the two countries from the time
of Warren Hastings to the present year; together with a particular
account of the Mission to Lhasa of 1904. By Sir Francis Young-
husband, K.C.I.E. With Maps and Illustrations. Medium 8vo.

LION AND DRAGON IN NORTHERN CHINA.
By R. F. Johnston, M.A. (Oxon.), F.R.G.S., District Officer and
Magistrate, Weihaiwei; Formerly Private Secretary to the Governor
of Hong-Kong, etc.; Author of "From Peking to Mandalay." With
Map and Illustrations. Demy 8vo.

In this book will be found the only full description that exists of the British
dependency of Weihaiwei—the three hundred square miles of Chinese territory
that have been under British control since 1898. The author, the District
Officer and Magistrate of Weihaiwei, has seen service in both south and north
China, and has travelled throughout the length and breadth of the Chinese
Empire. His book, although primarily dealing with the "Cinderella of the
British Empire," practically touches the whole relations of Europeans to
Chinamen in their own land. Mr. Johnston's practical experience in the
country, the nature of his official duties, and his knowledge of the language
have given him unique opportunities for acquiring an intimate knowledge of
the Chinese people and their customs. Much of the information given in these
pages has been collected from various historical and topographical works in
the Chinese language, but the greater part has been gathered at first hand in
the course of several years' residence among the people. Lovers of folk-lore,
students of sociology and of comparative religions, as well as of the condition
and destiny of the people of China, should find in this book much that is new
and of permanent value.

SHANS AT HOME. Their Customs, Habits of
Life, Industries, Folk-lore, Derived from a Fifteen Months' Residence
among them. By Mrs. Leslie Milne. With Two Chapters on Shan
History and Literature by the Rev. W. W. Cochrane. With Illus-
trations from the Author's Sketches and from Photographs and Maps
Demy 8vo.
