BRINGING UP GIRLS.
Freer Lives Led by English Young
Women Have Vanished Hysteria.

Here is a tribute TO the wisdom Of the
modern ideas on the upbringing of girls.

Brief on the subject Of hysteria.
Hysteria is the generic name applied
to some of the most battling. as well as
most interesting, cases with which physi-
clans have TO deal; cases which produce
what might be called phenomena of the
nervous system. morbid and abnormal
manifestations which have been and are
being studied by medical men every
where.
/ A nation whose women are inclined TO
develop hysteria Is to be pitied. One
whose women are /eonspicuously free
/ from the tendency is TO be initiated. The
physician referred to above, after noting
the fact that hysteria is less common in
/ England now than it was a generation
/ ago, declares that much stress must be
laid on the defective education and up
bringing OF English girls twenty-five or
/ thirty years ago.
/ They were allowed but little freedom
of thought OF action and were kept
closely tied to their mothers apron
strings The mother was a well meaning
/ person. bat she had but little initiative
and was hidebound by convention.
She was orthodox. but her orthodoxy
was that of her mother. supplemented by
the teaching Of the village parson. This
/ degeneracy reached its highest point in
the cathedral towns of Great Britain.
A quarter Of a century has marked a
great change in this respect and has been
concurrent with an increased robustness
of health of our girls. They are stronger
now physically, mentally and morally
The advent of bicycling and motoring
and especially Of greater facilities for
travelling i'm foreign countries has had
much 10 do with this, chiefly by permit
ting a more vigorous and intimate social
intercourse between young men and wO-
men.
The girl Of to-day dictates the policy
of her mother and with a healthier out
door existence there are fewer Of the
factors which tend 10 make for hysteria
and its attendant evils. 1t is compare
lively rare nowadays to meet with a
neurOtc English girl, and the most typi-
cal and exaggerated form OF the disease
must be sought among the Latin races.
