The following is a Gaslight etext.... A message to you about THE POWER-HOUSE by John Buchan William blackwood and Sons Edinburgh and London BY THE SAME AUTHOR. Crown 8vo. 1s. net. Cloth boards, with wrapper in three colours. THE THIRTY=NINE STEPS. Sir William Robertson Nicoll, writing in the 'British Weekly.' An Officer at the Front writes: "The 'shocker' arrived just before dinner-time, and though, with our early rising, sleep is very precious to us, I lay awake in my dug-out till I had finished the last page. This, I take it, is the supreme test of a 'shocker': one should never be able to lay it down. It is just the kind of fiction for here. Long novels I cannot manage in the trenches. One wants some- thing to engross the attention without tiring the mind, in doses not too large to be assimi- lated in very brief intervals of spare time. "The story is greatly appreciated in the midst of mud and rain and shells, and all that could make trench life depressing." TO MAJOR-GENERAL S IR FRANCIS LLOYD K.C.B.
