J 9,018 It is undoubtedly a fact that our grandmothers - mothers , the pioneer neer women - men of .he coun try , led more la borious lives than the house wives of to-day. In spite of this fact , they bore their hus bands healthy , robust sons and daughters , and did not become weak , complaining invalids as a consequence. There arc probably several reasons for this. One is , that they lived more in the open air , and another , and probably the most influential of all , is that they were less prudish than the women of to-day. They were not ashamed to know something- ofthelrown physical make-up. They were not too nice to take care of their health in a womanly way. Women now-n-days suf fer uutolu tortures in silence , because of weakness and disease of the distinctly feminine organism , rather than consult a physician , or even talk utxjn thu subject to their own husbands. They imagine that trouble ; * of thh description can only be cured by undergoing the disgusting exam inations and local treatment insisted upon by the average modern physician.
