mire. They COMFORT their husbands in
times of trouble and sickness; nurse and
watch over their children, and in fact res
cue whole family from sea of difficult
ties, which otherwise would overwhelm
them. Such a wife and mother, though
she has no gold medals to show for it, is
in the true sense of the word the nobleSt
kind of heroine.
Many women have within them the spirit
of heroism without the physical capacity
to carry it out. They long to be comfort
and help to their husbands and children
but are constantly weighed down by some
weakness or disease which saps their vital
forces, leaving them wretched and power
less to fulfill their highest ambition.
A woman can never know what POSSIBLE
tiles of power and accomplishment are lat
ent within her. 1t is a mistake for any
woman to conclude because she is weak
and miserable now that she must always
remain so. There is a reason for every ILL
ness and weakness. 1t does not come by
chance. 1t doesn't merely happen. And
it will not go away by chance.
If the cause of a woman's incapacity lies
in any weakness of the special organism
which makes her a woman she can never
be we'll or strong in any respect until this
particular weakness is mended and over
come.
In that great book, the Peoples Common
Sense Medical Adviser, by r. v. Pierce, NJ.
