Where Profits Are Really Shared.

One of the reforms in corporation

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

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 n
drag upon her husband.
The cost of n wife's con-
slant illness is n serious
