THE IDEAL WIFE
Shapes the Destiny of Men-The Influence OF
Healthy Woman Cannot Be Oyerestimated.

Seven-eighths of the
men in this world marry
a woman because she is
beautiful in their eyes
because she has the quail
ties which inspire admira-
ton, respect and love.
There is a beauty in
health which is more at
tractive to men than mere
regularity of feature.
The influence of women
glorious in the possession
of perfect physical health
upon men and upon the
civilization of the world
could never be measured.
Because of them men have
attained the very heights
of ambition; because of
them even thrones have
been established and de-
stroyed.
What a disappointment,
then, to see the fair young
wife's beauty fading away
before a year passes over
her head! A sickly, half
dead-and-alive woman,
especially when she is
the mother of a family,
is a damper to all joyous
ness in the home, and a
drag upon her husband.
The cost of a wife's con-
slant illness is a serious
drain upon the funds of a

household, and too often all the doc
toring does no good.
If woman finds her energies are
tagging, and that everything tires her,
dark shadows appear under her eyes,
her sleep is disturbed by horrible
dreams if she has backache, head
aches, bearing-down pains, nervous
ness, whites irregularities, or despon-
dency, she should take means to build
her system up at once by tonic with
specific powers, such as Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound.
This great remedy for women has
done more in the way of restoring
health to the women of America than
all other medicines put together. 1t is
the safeguard of woman's health.
Following we publish, by request, a
letter from young wife.
Mrs. Bessie Ainsley of Gil South 10th
Street, Tacoma, Wash, writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
"Ever since my child was born have suf-
fered, as hope few women ever have, with
Inflammation, female weakness, bearing-d
pains, backache and wretched headaches. 1t

Joy my meals, and half my time was spent

CONSENT IN OPERATIONS.

An interesting case has just been
concluded by an Illinois court with a
decision TO the effect that a husband
has no right TO consent to Il surgical
operation upon his wife and TO ar
range with the surgeon to perform the
operation without her consent. The
couseuting must be done by the wife
before the operation can be performed.
Otherwise the surgeon is guilty of
technical assault.
\ Maryland court held not long since
operated on without the consent of her
husband, even though her own consent
has been obtained. This was regarded
as poor law by the supreme court Of
that state, which held that The hus-
band has no right 70 withhold from the
wife the medical assistance which her
ease might require" \ reversal was,
therefore. ordered.
Along the same line is the rule lately
laid down that A surg on cannot Sc
cure the consent Of a patient to one
operation and then proceed To perform
another. In Minnesota a surgeon was
convicted of technical assault because.
having secured the consent Of a pa
tint to perform an operation on her
right ear. he found that the left ear
was also diseased and operated on it
as well Under this rule a surgeon
who has arranged TO perform say, an
abdominal operation. and finds after
he mas started his work that the organ
he intended to remove is not diseased.
while another organ is. he must close
up the wound. wait for the patient to
come out from under the influence Of
the auaesthetic and then secure consent
q start all over again.
Few surgeons viii do anything Of the
sort They viii proceed to do the work
before them regardless Of specific con-
sent and If their patients have any
faith at all in them-and one should
have abundant faith in the ability of
ones surgeon--they Will be so glad the
operation is over it viii never occur to
them TO be technical.
