DR.. Kenton, Before the WoInanis Society OF
New England
From the Home Journal, New York.
In all ages of the world, poets, sci
entists and men of prominence have
looked with enthusiasm often akin
to reverence upon woman but it is
only within the last few years that
she has begun 20 assume her right
place, not only in society, but with
the world in general. Why SO de-
sirable an end should have been SO
long delayed It Is difficult TO under
stand but that it has at last come is
certainly cause fer gratitude. In
her social sphere, in her mental de-
velopment and especially in her
physical Improvement, woman has
shown wonderful advancement and
such is astonisiles the world.
They who have made q careful

women are much more able to en-
dure pain than are the women OF
civilization, but civilized women
would resent the charge that they
are weaker because they are civ

Let us consider for a moment the
possibilities which present Them
selves to every woman. When the

and all the luxurious attendants of
a healthy body come forth. The
maiden feels the glorious possibili-
ties of life; the mother becomes con
scious of the grandeur of maternity
and the joys of a family. All this
is not only woman's privilege, it is
her duty, and ii embodies the high
est definition of "Womans rights"
After enumerating many of the
blessings thai follow perfect health
the speaker continued:
All these desirable things can be
accomplished, but in one way only.
The creator has given both woman
and man perfect physical forms,
and each is constitutionally equal to
all natural demands. II is mis-
taken and pernicious notion that

No curse was pronounced upon wo-
man which did not apply with
equal penalty against man. If wo.
men believe the fatalism that dis
ease is a necessary condition of their
existence it is chiefly because the
disciples of the schools of medical
practice have been utterly incapable
of competing with the multitude of
ills which, by personal carelessness
or professional incompetency, they
have permitted to fasten upon wo-
men.
A few weeks ago l received a call
from a charming lady, whose ear
nest face clearly showed that she
desired advice and assistance. Upon
questioning her she stated that she
believed she was suffering from a
paralyzed liver and wished to know
