new book, expresses in his own peculiar and
entertaining way many witty, satirical, and humorous ideas on
the subject of the "eternal woman."'--_Daily Express._
'Max O'Rell is always entertaining, and provokes friendly
discussion as readily as any writer I know. His new book
contains many aphorisms, and some of them are very
good.'--_British Weekly._
'Max O'Rell supplies, not for the first time, a delightful
mixture of commonplace and common-sense.'--_Daily Chronicle._
'We have no doubt a great many people will enjoy the book, and
the enjoyment will be innocent and wholesome.'--_Academy._
'Max O'Rell's chaff is excellent, and all in perfect good
taste.'--_Pelican._
'The genial author takes up the cudgels on behalf of the
better-looking sex in a way which should make his book

ones.... A very entertaining book.'--_Golden Penny._
'Contains some delightful reading.... It is a book happy in
idea, felicitous in expression, cynically frank and refreshing
in its candour.'--_Gossip._
'Another collection of amusing and epigrammatic essays.... Max

themselves, but they are written from an outside
standpoint.'--_Morning Leader._
'Women will not feel sorry that Max O'Rell's last work should be
his new book on the fair sex. For many a year he has helped us
with his gentle raillery, cheered us with his bright humour, and
taught us much. "Rambles in Womanland" contains many little
personal reminiscences and revelations, and its author's wit is

criticisms.'--_Gentlewoman._
'Max O'Rell's last book will add to the regret that his genial
pen will write no more. Usually there is a tone of gaiety in
what he says, but at all times he discusses important problems
with all seriousness, and with not a little of the wisdom with
