WHY WOMEN WORRY.
There ~ TOo Much OF Mo-
notOny in Their Mode
of Life.

If a woman is to protect herself from
the ravages Of worry and SO retain her
youth for q longer period, she must
come into more frequent contact with
other people, as her husband does, and
read good books; she must relieve the
monotony of her duties and this limit
ing influence of confinement within four
walls by taking outdoor eXercise-a
walk every day or a spin on a bicycle;
in short, she must exercise the body
and mind in a healthful manner, and
she will find the bloom of youth and
health remain with her for years after
it has faded in other ONE of tie same
age. says the Boston Republic.
"The ordinary woman" says a cele-
brated physician, leads such q monot-
onous existence that her mind has no
occupation but worry. What she needs
is to CONF out of herself much more
than she does. She must have inter-
course with more people ard take more
exercise. This can be done without
neglecting the home, and every right
minded man will DO his best to secure
for his mother or his sister or his wife
these aids to the retention of youth
fulness of body and mind"
