London’s Tree Tyrant: The London tree is a sad object in autumn. I was observing the trees of the streets yesterday, under dismal conditions of a wet afternoon, and I am bound to say that the general aspect of misery was made more miserable by the sad leaves that dripped on the wet pavements.

NEW POETRY
Thoughts and Words by Joshua Alan Sturgill
A Real Roly-Poly Pudding: In the true jam roll or—to call it by its honest old name—roly-poly pudding, the jam is an essential part of the whole, like the ornament in Gothic architecture. It has its place between each encircling roll of suet crust; it is cooked with the crust; it bubbles out rejoicing from the folds of crust when the knife touches it. This is the roly-poly pudding that helped to make us Britons and gave us the might to beat Boney down.
Clotted Nonsense: If the German be such a fool as to think his language the criterion of all other languages, and, in a sense, the only language, he may well conceive German morality to be the only morality. And thus he may easily arrive at the conclusion that it is pious to bomb Margate, but infamous to bomb Mannheim.

AT A MAN’S TABLE
Gastronomical Adventures with Arthur Machen
It may be of little surprise to seasoned Arthur Machen readers that the Welsh fantasist who wrote on “the joy of eating,” would have also contributed an excellent, if short-lived, culinary column to a weekly British newspaper. At a Man’s Table collects this material along with supplementary work to provide a survey of Machen’s gastronomical adventures between 1912 to 1938.
This limited hardcover edition is limited to 40 copies. SOLD OUT
