know how to live and take care Of their
own health. Their mothers are mainly
at fault. They bring up their daughters
in an atmosphere of false delicacy and in
utter ignorance of the anatomy distinctly
feminine and its all important functions.
"rhese young women study Latin and
Greek, go in for mathematics
and ethics, but are faulty in
their habits of eating, breathing,
walking, sleeping. dressing and work.
ing Worse than all else, they are as igno-

sublime Importance of capable mother

low neglect of the delicate organs that

Beauty, and Health is Happiness. Where
there Is health there Is always amability
and some degree of beauty. There may be
a sioky imitation of 1t, such as we see but
too frequently on the city streets and i'm
the city drawing-rooms. But this tran
silent hot-house loneliness of the invalid is
such as to excite pity. sympathy and con-
sideration, but not to awaken love in the
heart of robust, hard-headed young men.
And the consequence. Girls grow up to
womanhood and pass on into unnatural
splnsterhOod, because of their ignorance
of the Importance of the health and well
fare of the womanly organism. They suf-
fer in silence from weakness and disease
that rob them of their health, their beauty

the ills from which they suffer are inhe-

From these innocent sufferers, love
turns aside The young man who is worth
marrying is ambitious. He looks forward
to making a fortune In business, or a name
in a profession. He understands that he
cannot live always, and dreams of per-
petuating that fortune or name i'm line
of healthy, capable descendants. He
wants a healthy wife, who will preside
amiably in his home, and be a capable
motherly mother to robust and promising
children.
"That kind of a young man, and II Is the
only kind dtted for young husbandhood,
SHES at the evanescent beauty of the
semi-invalid. He has seen invalidism in
the homes of his friends, and If he is a city
bred man has seen little else, and with
modern hard-headedhess wants none of it.
While waiting for his ideal, the habits OF
bachelorhood become fixed, with the re-
suit, as in France, that the government
may soon have to drive men TO marriage
by tax on bachelorhood."
There is no necessity for this deplorable
state of affairs. If all young women were
taught by their mothers the supreme i'm
portance of the perfect health Of the or
gans that make wifehood and motherhood
possible, invalidism among women would
soon be a matter of ancient history. Theirs
is hardly a disease, either general or local,
from which women suffer that does not
have its inception in weakness Of the dis
tinctly feminine organism. The suffering
wife and mother, racked with pain, petu-
liant, slcKly, and untitled for the duties OF
life, is only at fault in so far as she is ig-
norant Of her own physical makeup and
Importance of her womanly health. If she
will take the proper care of herself and re-
