sh, and by the
gradual and easy transition between the parts.

"The moderate plumpness already described should bestow on the organs
of woman great suppleness. Plumpness is essential to beauty,
especially in mothers, because in them the abdomen necessarily
expands, and would afterwards collapse and become wrinkled.

"An excess of plumpness, however, is to be guarded against. Young
women who are very fat are cold and prone to barrenness.

"In no case should plumpness be so predominant as to destroy the
distinctness of parts."

A male and female formed on the above models would be well matched and
have fine children.

CHAPTER VI.

SEXUAL INTERCOURSE--ITS LAWS AND
CONDITIONS--ITS USE AND ABUSE.

There is an increasing and alarming prevalence of nervous ailments and
complicated disorders that could be traced to have their sole origin
from this source. Hypochondria, in its various phases, results from
the premature and unnatural waste of the seminal fluid. Then speedily
ensues a lack of natural heat, a deficiency of vital power, and
consequently indigestion, melancholy, languor, and dejection ensue;
the victim becomes enervated and spiritless, loses the very attributes
of man, and premature old age soon follows.

IT IS A PREVALENT ERROR

that it is necessary for the semen to be ejected at certain times from
the body; that its retention is incompatible with sound health and
vigor of body and mind. This is a very fallacious idea. The seminal
fluid is too precious--nature bestows too much care in its elaboration
for it to be wasted in this unproductive manner. It is intended, when
not used for the purpose of procreation, to be reabsorbed again into
the system, giving vigor of body, elasticity and strength to the mind,
making the individual strong, active, and self-reliant. When kept as
nature intended, it is a perpetual fountain of life and energy--a
vital force which acts in every direction, a motive power which
infuses manhood into every organ of the brain and every fiber of the
body.

THE LAW OF SEXUAL MORALITY

for childhood is one of utter negation of sex. Every child should be
kept pure and free from amative excitement and the least amative
indulgence, which is unnatural and doubly hurtful. No language is
strong enough to express the evils of amative excitement and unnatural
indul
