not assert anything that would do injustice to the at
hicted, but am obliged to say that although it NAV

and food, profuse menstruaton, the use OF tea and
Coffee and frequent childbirth, it is far oftener caus

When reviewing the causes OF these distressing
complaints, it is most painful to contemplate the at
attendant evils consequent upon Them 1t is but sim
pie justice to the subject to enumerate few of the
many additional causes which so largely affect the
lite, HEALTH and happiness woman in all classes OF
directly, the welfare OF the entire human family The
mania that exists for precocous education and mar
rage, causes the years that nature designated for
corporal development to be wasted and perverted
in the restraints dress, the early confinement of
school, and especially in the unhealthy exctem emit
of the ball room. Thus, with the body half clothed,
and the mind unduy excited by pleasure perverting
in midnight revel the hours designed by nature for
sleep and rest the work of destruction is half accom-
plished.
In consequence of this early strain upon her sys-
TEN, unnecessary effort is required by the delicate
votary to retain her situation in school at later day
thus aggravating the evil. When one excitement is
over, another in prospective keeps the mind morbid
y sensitive to impression, while the now constant
the exercise indispensable 10 the attainment and re-
tenton of organic health and strength; the exposure
to night air; the sudden change OF temperatures the
complete prostration produced by excessive dancing,
must of necessity produce their legitimate effect At
least an early marriage caps the climax of misery,
and the unfortunate one hitherto so utterly regard
lees OF the plain dictates and remonstrances OF her
delicate nature, becomes an unwilling subject of
medical treatment. This is but truthful picture of
the experience of thousands of our young women.
Long before the ability to exercise the functions OF
the generatve organs they require an education of
their peculiar nervous system, composed of what is
called the tissue, which is, in common with the fe-
male breast and lips, evidently under the control of
mental emotions and associations at early period
of life; and as we shall subsequently see, these
tons, when excessive, lead, long before puberty, to
habits which sap the very life OF their victims ere
nature has self-completed their development.
