Mrs Maud Churton Braby has achieved a remarkable success. She has written an original book upon the most threadbare of all subjects in which she has been as witty as she is wise . . . packed full of good sense sound morality and admirable advice. It is a book naked and unashamed written by a woman of the world with the naïve simplicity of an innocent child and arriving on the whole at conclusions worthy of any mother in Israel; a book full of profound wisdom irradiated by a pleasant wit and suffused with the glow of a genuine human sympathy.
