Women are the real heroes of th? world. Thousands on thousands of them endure the draggiug torture of the ilia Eeculiar to womankind in the silence of ome. They suffer on and on?week's, months, years. The story of weakness and torture is written in the drawn features, in the sallow skin, in the listless eyes, in the lines of care and worry on the face. Inborn modesty seals their lips. They prefer pain to humiliation. Custom has made them believe the only hope of relief lies in the exposure of examination aud "local treatment." Take ten cases of "female weakness" and in nine of them "local treatment" is unnecessary, There is no reason why modest, sensitive women should submit to it.
