"A plea to mothers to tell their daughters frankly all the laws
of nature before they arrive at years of possible indiscretion
through innocence. Its characters are uncommonly well drawn and

"A beautiful piece of work dealing with a stupendously difficult
subject with the most dexterous blending of delicacy, dramatic
strength and wholesome candor."--_London Daily Chronicle._
