In the paper. edition of "The Prisoner of Zenda," -simplified for students of English and children, great attention is paid to detail and all the essential facts and plot development are left untouehed. As a matter of fact, the simplicity leads itself to a clearer understanding. The vocabulary has been brought within the generally accepted mode of modern usage, and occasional words and phrases, unless clearly deducible from context or form, are explained with footnotes. Thus this most popular of Anthony Hope's stories should prove most enjoyable to a broad band of readers who otherwise would be handicapped by language diffüculty.—r.L.T.
