Mrs. Morgan ]. willard. OF New York.
recently read a paper before the Woman
League, of which she IS an officer. on the
subject Of "Woman's Greatest Troubles.
After enumerating them I'm order ana
intelligently treating the subjects or I'm
requited Affection" Lack Of Apprecia-
ton" Loss Of Friends" Poverty etc,
she continued:
But unfortunately. the greatest
trouble which ever comes into any wo-
mans life is loss Of health. Other troubles
can be overcome. Time mellows the grief
which Is so overwhelming at the hour we
close the eyes OF our dying relatives or
friends Poverty may be banished and
the lost home and social standing re-
gained. Even unrequited affection may
be lived down. but broken health blights
the life, undermines the spirit, destroys
beauty. embitters the nature. ruins the
life and. too often makes death a boon.
A sickly woman is the saddest wreck
upon the shoals Of life She IS not only
miserable herself but often brings greater
misery 10 those about her-the loving
friends whose lives are iound up in hers.
WOman's greatest trouble is III health
After describing many of the diseases
20 which women are specially subject.
the lecturer continued
But thank Heaven there Is an escape.
Fortunately there is a relief for women
even in their lowest physical condition.
Modern science ard modern discovery
have worked for years on this problem
which is, in fact the greatest problem OF
life. namely. how TO produce happiness,
and It Is cause for gratitude that these
efforts have been successful. There are
many things which have been discovered
which may help women in their physical
troubles. and there is one discovery which
certainly cures. have knOVa many
women who have been in the depths Of
physical bitterness. and who are now on
the heights OF happiness. / have seen
them taken from n condition Of sickness
and misery, and know that they are to-
day healthy and happy. ! also know
that the means by which they were re-
stored has been endorsed by the highest
authorities. medical and scientific, both
abroad and in America. II is COM
mended in the warmest terms by such
eminent men as Rev. DR.. Rankin and
Bishop Wilson. and by such reliable
women as Mrs. Annie Jenness Miller and
Mrs Phelps. | myself, have used it. and
cannot recommend Il too highly. The
name OF this discovery which has done so
much for womanhOod. is Warmers Safe
Cure. and IL can be secured by any woman
who feels the need Of some reliable friend
upon whom she can depend
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 purpose. Her
mission in life is to diffuse JOY and glad
ness. 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. ner troubles arise from her
own making Thoughtlessness. careless
ness and neglect are too often responsible
for the misery which she endures, but
fortunately. by exercising care and avail
ing herself OF the best discoveries Of
science there is no reason why she should
remain IN a condition of unhappiness
when there is certain relief near at
hand"
