MOST STARTLING CONSIDERATIONS !
Reflections for the Thoughtful.
Strange that countless human beings exist ano
drug through life as do the beasts Of the field OF
the insects Of the earth, cvincing no more though,
or reflection than though the noble faculties Of mind
were not vouchsafed to them.
Many such are husbands and fathers, upon whom
are dependent the health, the well-being, and the
happiness Of o conhding and aaectionate wife, with
perhaps family of children.
now OFTEN IT HAPPENS THAT THE
WIFE LINGERs FROM YEAR TO YEAR
In that pitable condition not for one day to
feel the happy and exherating influence incident
to the enjoyment Of health.
She NAV not be an invalid confined TO her bed,
or even to her room as her pride, ambition and
energy induce and nerve her to take personal
charge of her household, even when her health will
not admit Of il but she is nevertheless perceptiby
sinking from day to day, and always ailing
Thus, day after day, and month after month tran
spire Her health daily sinks, till finally even the
hope of recovery no longer remains. And thus
THE BLOOMING BRIDE,
But few years ago In the flush Of health and
youth, and buoyancy Of spirits, rapidly, and appa-
rently inexplicably, becomes feeble, siekly, de-
bilitated wife, with frame emaciated, nerves un
strung. spirits depressed, couutennnce bearing the
impress of suffering, and an utter physical anu

And must this continue Shall we be wise In
all that the cattle Of our feds our horses,
our sheep, COWS, our oxen, the nature and
character Of the soil we possess, the texture and
quality Of our goods and merchandise but in all that
concerns ourselves human beings, with human
functions and passions, subject to great derange-
ment, involving our future peace and happiness
in all that concerns the health and welfare OF the
wife of our affections, and the mother OF our chill
dren in all that concerns the mental and physical
well being of those children, we should be i'm
mersed in the darkest and most
BENiGHTED IGNORANCE
! AS cULrABLE AS INExcUsABLE
How long shall this ignorance prevail so produe-
tive of its bitter fruits How long shall the wife
and mother be ignorant Of tho nature character and
causes of the various womb and sexual complaints,
cmbittering her days by suffering suffering often
prolonged to years, eventuatng in complication OF
diseases utterly and hopelessly incurable Shall
we for ever close eyes to the results of physio-
! logical science by which may arrive Mt an
understanding Of ourselves as men and women,
subject to serious lifelong enduring diseases, and
perpetuating them to our children.
