When reviewing the causes of these distressing
complaints, it is most painful to contemplate the at
atendant 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
ute, 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

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 eenerative organs, they require an education OF
tneir peculiar nervous system, com posed of what is

male breast and lips evidently under the control of
mental emotions and associations at an early period
OF life; and as we shall subsequently see, these emo

habits which sap the very life OF their victims ere
nature has self-completed their development.
