W OMKN TOO AMIIITIors
Excessive ambition leads all sorts of
woman to exert themselves beyond
their strength. The girl striving for
honors in school, the busy housewife,
the shop-girl, the society climber or
leader, all overtax their natural pow
ers of endurance. Then come nervous
troubles, backaches, headaches, fre
quently organic troubles, which reduce
them almost to despair.
Women suffering thus should flrst
recogulfce tho necessity of putting on
the brakes and slowing down. Be
sides this, to remedy the mischief al
ready don» to their health, the best
reliance is upon that famous and stand
