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.
