SECOND EDITION-JUST ISSUED Women have at last awakened to a sense of the penalties they have paid for their ignorance of those laws of nature which govern their physical being, and to feel keenly the necessity for instruction in the fundamental principles which underlie the epochs of their lives. In this instructive work are stated, in a modest, pleasing, and conclusive manner, those truths of which every woman should have a thorough knowledge. Written, as it is, for the laity, the subject is discussed in language readily grasped even by those most unfamiliar with medical subjects.

"The author has treated a difficult subject with tact, wisdom, and dignity."-American Medicine.

"We do not as a rule care for medical books written for the instruction of the public. But we must admit that the advice in Dr. Galbraith's work is in the main wise and wholesome.' -Birmingham Medical Review, England. .
