Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Healthy Woman Many books tell mothers all about the care of infants, and how to meet their wrong inheritances and their many needs in the first years of fife. That is strictly outside the province of this little treatise upon the healthy woman, but it is something upon which all mothers should thoroughly in form themselves. Probably the best man ual for that purpose is The Century Book for Mothers, by Dr. L. M. Yale and Gus tav Pollak. Our study begins with the years of child hood, namely, after the completion of the first dentition up to the age of maturity, which commonly occurs in this country from eleven to fifteen years. In early childhood girls usually weigh less than boys of the same age, but between twelve and fifteen years the weight and bulk of the female body are normally somewhat greater than those of the male. Their height should increase at nearly the same rate as in boys, viz., the average of 2 feet and 6 inches at two years to 4 feet and 8 inches at fourteen years.
