Dr. Dio Lewis has written a sensible and lively book. There is not a
dull page in it, and scarcely one that does not convey some sound
instruction. We wish the book could enter thousands of our homes,
fashionable and unfashionable; for we believe it contains suggestions
and teaching of precisely the kind that "our girls" every where need.
--_N. Y. Independent._

This really important book. --_Christian Union._

Written in Dr. Lewis's free and lively style, and is full of good ideas,
the fruit of long study and experience, told in a sensible, practical
way that commends them to every one who reads. The whole book is
admirably sensible. --_Boston Post._

Full of practical and very sensible advice to young women.
--_Episcopalian._

Dr. Lewis is well known as an acute observer, a man of great practical
sagacity in sanitary reform, and a lively and brilliant writer upon
medical subjects. --_N. Y. Observer._

We like it exceedingly. It says just what ought to be said, and that in
style colloquial, short, sharp, and memorable. --_Christian Advocate._

The whole tone of the book is pure and healthy. --_Albany Express._

Every page shows him to be in earnest, and thoroughly alive to the
importance of the subjects he discusses. He talks like one who has a
solemn message to deliver, and who deems the matter far more essential
than the manner. His book is, therefore, a series of short, earnest
appeals against the unnatural, foolish, and suicidal customs prevailing
in fashionable society. --_Churchman._

A timely and most desirable book. --_Springfield Union._

Full of spicy, sharp things about matters pertaining to health; full of
good advice, which, if people would but take it, would soon change the
world in some very important respects; not profound or systematic, but
still a book with numberless good things in it. --_Liberal Christian._

The author writes with vigor and point, and with occasional dry humor.
--_Worcester Spy._

Brimful of good, common-sense hints regarding dress, diet, recreation,
and other necessary things in the female economy. --_Boston Journal._

Dr. Lewis talks very plainly and sensibly, and makes very many important
suggestions. He does not mince matters at all, but puts every thing in a
straightforward and, not seldom, homely way, perspicuous to the dullest
understanding. His style is lively and readable, and the book is very
entertaining as well as instructive. --_Register_, Sale
