Greatest Torubles. After enumer-
ating them in order, and intelligently
treating the subjects Of "Unrequited
Affection, Lack of Appreciation, Z
Loss of Friends" Poverty, etc,
she continued:
But, unfortunately, the greatest
trouble which ever comes into any
woman S life is loss Of health. Otner
troubles can be overcome. Time
mellows the grief which Is so over
whelming at the hour we close the
eyes of our dying relatives or friendss
Poverty may be banished and the lost
home and social standing regained
Even unrequitcd affection may be
lived down but broken health blights
the life undermines the spirit, de-
stroys beauty, embitters the nature,
ruins the life and, too often, makes
death boon. 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 ur in hers Woman S
greatest trouble is i'll health!'
After describing many Of the di
seases 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 10 est physi-
cal condition. Modern science and |
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 physicaftrouhles. and
there is one discovery which certainly

In conclusion, Mira. Willard saidl
''Woman is able to endure suffering
far more than man. but there is no
reason why she should be compelled T
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 g1adness. Her face
hecomea 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,
and neglect are too often
responsible for the misery which she
endures, but fortunately, by exercis-
ing care and availirg herself OF the
best discoveries of science, there is no
reason why she should remain In a
Of unhappiness when there
is certain relief near at hand.
