SPECIAL NOTICES.


WOMAN.-FEMALEs, OWING TO THE Pc
w ~ culiar and Important relations which
they sustain, their peculiar orgaaization, and the
offices they perform, are subject to many suffer-
ings. Freedom from these contribute in no small
degree to their happiness and welfare, for none
can be happy who are ILL Not only so, but no
one of these various female complaints can long
be suffered to run on without involving the gene
ral} health of the individual, and ere long pro-
ducing permanent sickness and premature de-
cline. Nor IS it pleasant to consult u physician
for the relief of these various delicate attentions
and only upon the most urgent necessity will
true woman so far sacrifice her greatest charm as
to do this. The sex will then thunk us for plac-
ing in their hands simple specifics which will be
found efiicacious in relieving and curing almost
every one of those troublesome complaints pecu-
liar to the sex.
HELMBoLD's EXTRACT OF BUcnU.-Hundreds
suffer on in silence, and hundreds of others apply
vainly to druggists and doctors, who either mere
ly tantalize them with the hope Of cure or APP
ply remedies which make them worse. l would
not wish to assert anything that would do injus-
tice to the afflicted, but am obliged to say that
although it may be produced from excessive ex-
haustion of the powers of life, by laborious en-
ployment, unwholesome air and food, profuse
menstruaton, the use Of. tea and coffee, and fire.
quent childbirth, it is far oftener caused by d.
rect irritation, applied to the mucous membranes
of the vagina itself.

effect. At last, an early marriage caps the eli
max of misery, and the unfortunate one, hitherto
so utterly regardless Of the plain dictates and re-
monstrances Of her delicate nature, becomes an
unwilling subject of medical treatment. This is
but truthful picture of the experience of thou
sands Of our young women.
Long before the ability to exercise the func-
tons of the generative organs, they require an
education Of their peculiar nervous system, COM

common with the female breast and lips, evident

soclatlons ut an early period OF life; and, as we
shall subsequently see, these emotions, when ex-
cesslve, lead, long before puberty, to habits which
sap the very NE OF their victims ere nature has
self completed their development.
