Of Interest To Women

A prominent physician says that by
far the largest number of women's
ailments are not surgical ones, that
is they are not caused by serious dis
placements, or growths. Symptoms
similar in character are often
brought about by much simpler. con-
ditions. We therefore urge every
woman who suffers from backache,
headaches bearing down pains, side
ache, irregularities, nervous des-
pondency, or weakness to- give Lydia

country we found while she had mac

ment she had no further idea of any

Then w. l.. George, the brilliant
writer for English feminism, came t.
this country and urged us to BATH

how women with professions were to

their husbands will do half the house

'You can't thrill American feminists
