to partake Of the nature of a phenom-
enon. Why don't men faint? Why can
a weak-framed, understood man go
through life without fainting, when a
splendid woman, a Diana for beauty
and courage, must know the humiliation
of this sudden lapse of consciousness?
There is
A SCARLET GLUE
to follow which will bring US safely out
from the labyrinth of discussion. There
are certain times when woman is more
liable to faint than she is at other times.
AND those times will be found to be the
times when the womanly nature and
functions are most dominant. The con-
clusion is irresistible AS general prop
osition woman faints because the deli
| cate organs by which she is differentiated
| from brother or husband are affected by
| disease. Woman is creations master
| piece, the last and fairest work of the
| Creator. To her are given joys and sor-
| row which no man may know and no man
| can share To her also is given a capaci-
| ty for suffering beyond the knowledge of
men. The great question is: TO what ex-
| tent is this suffering necessary? Has
| woman been made so finely only that
| she may know the refinement of suf-
| fel1ng? The very thought is an outrage
on Nature. The new woman will know
nothing of the suffering OF the woman
of the past She will run and not be
weary" She will walk and not faint.
Let her put away at once and forever
the thought that she is under Natures
particular ban and must suffer because
she is a woman. Let her relegate that
superstition to the limbo where all the
old superstitions that left her slave
have long been relegated. Let her believe
that there is a way to sound physical
health which those that seek will surely
find.
