A Houseful of Girls. By Mrs. George De Horne Vaizey.

(R.T.S. 2s. 6d.)—We seem to have already seen the six young ladies with whom Mrs. Vaizey fills Thurston House. There is, as usual, the beauty of the family, and the untidy one, with compensating good qualities, of course, and so forth. Nor is the recluse who comes to the long-unoccupied Hall a stranger. However, this matters but little. There are many types of men and women, and when we have sifted out the unsuitable, there are not enough to go round. Difficile est proprie convmunia dicere, we have remarked before, probably more than once, and Mrs. Vaizey meets the difficulty well.
