many additional causes which SO largely affect the
Hte, health and happiness OF woman in all classes Of
society, and which, consequently affect more or less
directly, the welfare OF the entire human family The
mania that exists for precocious education and mar
rage, causes the years that nature designated for
corporal development to be wasted and perverted
in the restraints ofdress, the early confinement of
school, and especially in the unhealthy excitement
of the ball room. Thus with the body half clothed
and the mind unduly excited by pleasure, perverting
in midnight revel the hours designed by nature for
sleep and rest the work of destruction is half

In consequences Of this early strain upon her sys-

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
