The sweet young girl j .st. ontering into womanhood soon bo-comes pale, feeble, emaciated, lifeless, with headaches, pains and aches, loss of appetite, palpitation of the heart, cold feet and hands, and appears to loose that youthful vim and sprigutliness so much adepired. The middle- •ig-ii ro Uriel lady is no less exempt from 8 .ne troublesome annoyance. She contm- " 'ily gruuting and fretting with pains and lies, her s.cretions are all impaired, her en-gies are lost, she forces herself in into so-oiety, she “ spurs ” on almost everybody, her heiflth slowly declines until she becomes i mere drone in her own household. And she at the “ 'urn of life ” is no stranger to suffering peculiar to her stx at that age.
