LEMALES, OWING TO THE PECULIAR
a and important relations which they sustain
their peculiar organization. and the offices they
perform, are subject to many sufierings and all
ments peculiar TO the sex Freedom from these
contributes in no small degree to their happi-
ness and welfare. for none can be happy who are
i'll. Not Onlp so, but no one of these various
female, complaints can long be suffered to run
on without involving the general health of the
individual. and ere long producing permanent
sickness and premature decline Nor is it
pleasant to consult physician for the relief of
these various delicate affections. and only upon
the most urgent necessity will a true woman so
far sacrifice her greatest charm as to do this.
The sex will then thank us for placing in their
hands simple specifics which will be found eff
cacious in relieving and curing almost every
one OF those troublesome complaints peculiar
~ the sex.
HELMBOLD'S EXT. OF BUCHU.

so largely affect the life. health, and happiness
Of woman in all classes of society. and which

welfare of the entire human family. The ma
MIA that exists for precocious education and
marriage causes the years that nature designed
for corporal development to be wasted and
perverted in the restraints Of dress. the early
confinement of school, and especially in the I'M
healthy excitement Of the ball room. Thus,
with the body half clothed and the mind unduly
excited by pleasure, peryertinS in midnight

rest, the work OF destru ction is half accom-

In consequence of this carly strain upon her

Of the plain dictates and circumstances of her

young women.

education OF their peculiar nervous system
composed of what is called the tissue. which is,
in common with the female breast and lips, ev-
identity under the control of mental emotions
and associations ut an early p riod of life and.
as we shall subsequently, see. these emotions,
when excessive, lead. long before puberty. to
habits which sap the very life of their victims
