102 will be sure to know it later on." — Sylvanus Stall, D. D.

Even if a girl possesses a vigorous body and strongly sexed nature, the corset pressing down on the delicate organs of sex, displaces and lessens the strength of the organs themselves, and every surrounding part.

That is the true reason why woman suffers so at childbirth. The abdomen and other muscles have been weakened, thus weakening the internal organs to a similar degree, and without that power so necessary under the circumstances, she naturally suffers seriously at this time.

Let the warning be plain. Avoid corset-crushed waists, or prepare for marital miseries that will torture your soul like an animal that is being goaded with a red hot iron.
