130 MALE AND FEMALE CHILDREN AT WILL. 



healthy, strong and in full heat. 



" 7. That if the female was exhausted by labor, or forced exertion, 

 the young would be generally male, should the male employed be kept 

 in and well fed. 



" 8. That the young would be female, should the female be kept a: 

 rest, and the male exhausted by labor or forced exertion. 



" 9. To conclude that the offspring would more generally be male 

 or female, according to their respective physical and pro creative abili- 

 ties (age being taken into consideration). 



" From the preceding statements we derive the following deduc- 

 tions: Man being an animal, having physical and procreative faculties 

 analogous to those of the brutes, if a set of phenomena take place 

 among these, the same must necessarily be produced in the human 

 species, and if certain conditions of the physical body affect the off- 

 spring, the same physical conditions must affect the offspring in man. 

 When it is desired to bless the household with a male child, the 

 husband should take good substantial food, moderate exercise, pass his 

 time pleasantly in the gay society of women, read amusing books, and 

 abstain from cohabitation for a time previous to the procreative period. 

 During the same time the expectant wife should live sparingly, particu- 

 larly on vegetables, fatigue herself every day, take some medicines that 

 reduce the sexual passion, and pass her time in the dry society of old 

 women." A common and convenient remedy for this purpose is lupulin 

 the yellow powder obtained by threshing hops. It should be taken in 

 doses of six to ten grains, two or three times a day. It can also be 

 found at drug stores. Or use spirits of camphor in two drop doses on 

 sugar, three or four times a day; also add half a teaspoonful of baking 

 soda to a teacupful of water, and drink it during the day. 



"To have female children, the opposite should be observed ; the 

 woman should partake freely of stimulating food, using spices freely, 

 etc., but should restrain her passion and preserve its whole force for the 

 desired time ; the male or husband, on the contrary, should reduce his 

 physical abilities by actual labor, and at the same time reduce his pro 

 creative propensities by frequent, copious cold ablutions." [John E. 

 Van Molle, A. M.
