Mrs. Morgan ]. Willard, of New
YORK, recently read a paper before the
Woman's league, of which she is an
officer, on the subject of "Woman's
Greatest Troubles After enumera1-
ing them in order, and intelligentlv
treating the subjects of "Unreouited
Affection" Lack of Appreciation. F."
Loss of Friends" Poverty" etc. she
continued:
But, unfortunately, the greatest

A slckly woman is the saddest wreck
upon the shoals of life. She is not only
miserable herself, but often brings
greater misery to those about her-the
loving friends whose lives are bound
up in hers. Woman's greatest trouble
is i'll healthv'
After describing many of the dis
eases TO which women are specially
subject, the lecturer continued:
But thank Heaven there is an es-
cape. Fortunately there is relief for
women even in their lowest physical
cohdltlon. Modern science and modern
discovery have worked for years on
this problem which Is, In fact, the

In conclusion, Mrs Willard said:
woman is able to endure suffering
far more than man, but there is no
reason why she should be compelled to
do so. She may be able to endure pain,
but she was not created for that pur-
pose. Her mission IN life is to diffusr
joy and gladness. Her face becomes a
revelation of heaven when wreathed
in happiness, but gives us a glimpse
of all that is miserable when depressed
by detection. But, far too often, her
troubles arise from her own making.
Thoughtlessness, carelessness and neg
lect are too often responsible for the
misery which she fendures, but fortu-
nately, by exercising care and avail
ing herself of thet best discoveries OF
science, there is no reason why she
should remain in a condition of I'M
happiness when there is certain relief
near at hand"
