BY THE SAME AUTHOR. The New Godiva AND OTHER STUDIES IN SOCIAL QUESTIONS. Fcap cloth, 192 pp. 3s. 6d. "Readers of this Review will recollect a noble essay, lofty and earnest in tone, cogent in reasoning, pure, strong and graceful in style, ... under the title of The Christian Harem.' This and four other studies' equally admirable . . . are now published. . It is not easy. . . to read them without emotion. Yet there is no cheap sensationalism, no namby-pamby sentimentalism about them; no pathetic stories of ruined lives; no appalling statistics. The writer appeals to principles alone. Happily he is able to enforce them with rare literary skill, inspired by intense earnestness, chastened by perfect self-control. The strength and delicacy of his touch proclaim a master's hand.”—Westminster Review. ... "This book may help . . . to give to women a little more of that strange something-knowledge, courage, pity, justice-which goes to make up a soul. And when we think what the additional thousandth part of a grain's weight of soul-especially of the soul of women-means, . . . we may well wish this little book God speed, and hope that it may find a very large number of readers."— Academy.
