" This is a useful contribution to the candidates' side of the struggle between 

 examiner and examinee. The game of competitive examination has some resemblance 

 to that of cricket, at one period the bat has the upper hand, at another the ball ; just 

 now the examiners may be deemed to be getting the worst of it, for coaching has 

 been elevated or reduced to a fine art. To commit the whole of the condensed notes 

 of Colonel Brunker's little book to memory, in accordance with his suggestion, may 

 be found difficult, but if possible of accomplishment, Burhngton House and promotion 

 examinations should have no terrors for candidates. The interleaving is exceedingly 

 useful, and seems now to be generally adopted in educational works of this 

 description." ■— Broad Arrow.

Opinions of the Press. 



" 'Pagett, M.P.,' is in this volume, and the fine lines called 'The Song of the 

 Women,' written in praise of Lady Dufferin for her noble efforts to send medical aid 

 to the women of India, and many another piece famiUar to Mr. Kipling's admirers. 

 Some of his parodies are exceedingly happy, notably those of Mr. Swinburne and ot 

 Omar Khayyam; and there is quite enough 'stuff' in the book to make it pretty 

 certain that the present Edition wiU not be the last." — Times.
