The Wit and Humor of America, Volume IV. (of X.) 56
A Message to Girls
AnonymousEnglish
By ELIZA M. MOSHER, M.D.
This new book consists of a dozen letters which deal in a fundamental and very original way with habits of posture, good and bad, and their influence upon the body; with efficiency through an understanding of the needs of the body in relation to foods, and the removal of waste; the care of the skin; and the offices of clothing.
Very simply and clearly the structure and functions of the nervous system are given as a basis for important suggestions regarding its care from infancy to womanhood. Explicit teaching is given regarding the care girls need to give themselves during high school and college years if they wish to keep as well and strong as they ought to be. The story of motherhood is told in a very interesting manner, and valuable advice is given regarding the physical preparation for it, which the author believes should begin in early girlhood.
