No one knows better than DIR. Hart
man how much the women suffer with
diseases peculiar to their sex. No one
knows better than lie does how many
of them suffer with such diseases.
Patiently, hopefully, YEARLY, and often
silently, they exc out miserable exist

No martyr in poetry or heroine in
romance makes more touching appeal
to human sympathy than the woman
burdened with the cares of family

tormenting and ever present female
