SUFFERING lN sElENcE.

Women are the real heroes of the
world. Thousands on thousands ofthem
endure the dragging torture of the ills
peculiar to womankind in the silence of
home. They suffer on and on-weeks,
months, yeaAs. The story of weakness
and torture is written in the drawn
features, in the sallow skin, in the list
less eyes, in the lines of care and worry
on the face.
Unborn modesty seals their lips. They
prefer pain to humiliation. Custom has
made them believe the only hope of
relief lies in the exposure of examina-
