Women Who Wear Well.
It Is astonishing how great a change a
low years of mifrried life often make In
tho appearanco and disposition of many
wofnen. Tho freshness, tho charm, tho
brilliance vanish like the bloom from a
peach which Is rudely handled. The
matron Is only a dim shadow, a faint echo
of tho charming maiden. There are two
reason* for this change, Ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through tho
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many negloct to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
riage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
of Its freshness and the form of its
fairness.
