The Co - Education of the Sexes. By Mabel Ilawtrey. (Kegan Paul,

Trench, and Co.)— Miss Hawtrey gives a decided opinion against co-education, and sustains it by argument and by the results of observation. It is a subject of profound importance, which it is quite impossible to discuss on the present occasion. In fact, it is better debated in camera than publicly. We can but commend this volume to the attention of our readers.
