Imitative Exercises. By F. Ritchie. (Rivingtons.)—Those who possess Mr. Ritchie's

"Fabuln Faciles," will no doubt find this book very useful. It consists of a collection of exercises based on the former work, to which reference is made by means of an index in the case of any difficult word or construction. The system is certainly a good one. Words and phrases are more likely to remain in the memory when acquired in this way. The exercises them- selves are good, and carefully graduated in hardness.
