Do you know why so many women
are suffering from nervous p1ost1at1on‘?
Why so many physicians are acquir-
ing wealth by catering to a long list of
feminine patients and supplying names
to their many ailments, which summed
up: man nerve afiections ? '
It is the high rate of living. This
modern civilization in which 'we take
scrunch pride is acquired at a tremen.
donesacrifice, harder for' ivOmeu than
mm, because of physical and social
emdvitions. -
The Rite of a fashionable woman is an
incessant and never-ending effort to be
agreeable. 'She has to be alWays

dart—she- must 'sec'lu'de herself Or lose

Few men ever trouble themselves to

immybody' and everything at dinner
parties, balls or ‘other social ""'gather-
ings. for their popularity does not de-
pend upon their charm of; manner.
Hostesses‘.‘ are glad to. secure ;

But women, poor, tired, overwmked
women, pay their way through this un-

HOW many pleasant friendships are
clouded and sometimes broken alto-
gether by misunderstandings that a
little talk would dissipate at once.
Though the caterpillars are a little
backward about making their annual
debut the hoptoadsare sufficiently ac-
tive to atone for their absence. ‘
Is. there anything more exasperating
than to be visited by someone who
thinks she knows how' to run your
home better than you do yourself ?
The big collars on babies’ pique coats
give an air of distinction to youngsters
of which you would never dream when
they are crawling about the door.
The little tendril of hair on a. wom-
an’s neck is indeed a coquettish bit of
beauty so long as it actually curls,
hut when it hangs down straight and ‘ .. ' "
limp it is the ugliest thing imaginable.
Some of the most attractive women

pulsive by continually fussing over the
art of a necktie or the 1011 of a coil of

given as a war ting to the young wom-
en who apparently thinks the place for
all flowers is in her mouth.
A woman would infinitely p1efer be-
