I '"P^HE purpose of Miss Lippitt's book is to explain the i 



I •*- means by which girls and women may attain health | 



I and happiness in the present and lay the foundations for | 



I sane and vigorous lives in after years. In clearest terms | 



I it lays down practical instructions for the conduct of their | 



I daily lives. Not only are the rules set out, but the reasons | 



I which underlie them are made clear. Directions are | 



I given for preventing the spread of infection from cases | 



I of communicable disease ; and instructions are furnished | 



I for the care of one's self and one's family in cases of | 



I accident or sickness. The author has desired to keep the | 



I book rather brief, and for this reason has introduced | 



I only those topics on which women and girls seem par- | 



I ticularly to need instruction. | 



I The text is adapted for use as a beginner's book for | 



I classes in hygiene and home nursing in high schools, | 



I colleges and schools for nurses. | 



I Cloth. Profusely illustrated. |
