make pupils study too much.
All these causes were explained and
denounced 1T a meeting. and all came
In under the wire. about evenly. for
the blame.
All these things were assigned as
causes for the nervousness and hys-
terra which afflict women.
All the speakers told of their expe-
rience with these causes. except that of
the belated husbands.
On this point their testimony was at
second hand.
But they al agreed that the combin-
ed causes were undermining the consti-
tutions of Chicago women and threat
ened 10 reduce the sex TO the level of
man.
Haberdashers were denounced for in

that pupils should study far into the
night were set down as enemies of the

denunciation.
