Hut slavery is most obnoxioun when it fastens its bonds on women. If it were known that one American woman had been carried into slavery by Mor or Arab, the I'nited Slates would rescue that single, slave if it took its whole navy and combined aniw to effect her deliverance. And yet this United States teems with women slave, for whom nothing can be done bv the government. When a woman toils every dav, from moin until night, year after year, aud gets nothing for her labor but food lo eat, clothes to wear and a roof to shelter her, what is that but slavery? That is the lot of many a woman iu this free land. She is a household drudge. Sta has no money to spend. She takes no holidays. She slave and saves to help pay for the home, to enable her husband to pay for another eighty acres, or for somw other domestio purpose. She loses her sight over the cooking stove and her strcntrth over the wash tub, and not infre- ntlv when the last payment on house or land is e, sho herself pay the debt of nature ami leaves result of her labors to a new and younger wife. It is this household slavery of American women that may be held as largely responsible for the prevalence of womanly diseases. Common feminine ailments are neglected and allowed to grow until they involve the general health, and to the burden of slavery is added the weight of almost constant pain. The back aches. There are bearing-down pains. The nerves are shat tered. Appetite fails and night are sleepless. The form slowly loses flesh and the cheek grow hollow.
