A book reviewer in the London

assertion that the word Interesting"
is not one that should ordinarily be
applied to work Of fiction. 1t is re-
markable because, Sor some occult rea-
son. he considers the word unsuitable
in its application to any fiction of
whatever character If he had said
that it has no fitness when applied to
much current fiction he would have
aroused no surprise.-Exchange.
