Many a woman has periodic crying
spells. She meets her husband with
eyes red and swollen and he cries out :
UWhat has happened?" cNothing~ his
wife replies. III don't know what is the
matter with me, but I Just had to have
good cry.n Men don't have CRYING
spells. 1t would seem therefore that an
affection confined to women must have
its cause in the woman1y nature. There
is no doubt that diseased condition of
