The Quiver. (Cassell and Co. 7s. 8d.)—The Quiver is an
old friend, and we feel certain, when we open it, that we shall find the accustomed supply of entertaining and profitable reading. We not sure, however, that the "serial story," Mr. Joseph Hocking's "Woman of Babylon," is quite the right thing in the right place. With what may be called its meral we are in thorough agreement... If. a Protestant parent.plaeos his daughter
in a convent school because he gets, as he thinks, very large value for his money, he commits an act of folly, and if any warning can binder him from doing it—very good. Still, we doubt whether the pages of a magazine are a suitable vehicle for such warnings. On the whole, the Quiver is full of excellent matter, a real Sunday magazine which no one will find any difficulty in reading on a weekday.
