flow ceases, and seldom, if ever, later than the fourth
day. It then takes from two to six days for the egg to pass down through
the Fallopian tube into the womb, where it remains from two to six days,
when, if not impregnated, it passes down through the vagina from the body.
After the egg has passed from the body, conception is not possible until
after the next menstrual flow.

The period, therefore, from after the sixteenth to within three days of the
following menstrual discharge is one of almost absolute safety. We say
within three days of the next menstruation, because the male seminal fluid
may be retained there till the egg leaves the ovary, and in that way
impregnation might follow. Impregnation would, however, rarely occur if the
period was extended to from the twelfth day after menstruation close up to
one day before it began again.

The above is the only physiological method (and it is no secret to a great
many people) by which conception can be limited, without the employment of
such means as involve danger and serious evils.

18. WARNING.--Let women be warned in the most emphatic manner against the
employment of the secret methods constantly advertised by quacks. Such
means are the almost certain cause of painful uterine diseases and of
shortened life. They are productive of more misery by far than
over-production itself.

VAGINAL CLEANLINESS.

1. The above Syringe has a patent tube known as the vaginal cleanser. This
keeps the sides of the vagina apart and permits the water to thoroughly
clean and cleanse the organ. It will be found a great relief in both health
and sickness, and in many cases cure barrenness and other diseases of the
womb. It can be used the same as any other syringe. The tube can be
procured at almost any drug store and applied to either bulb or fountain
syringe. Many women are barren on account of an acid secretion in the
vagina. The cleanser is almost a certain remedy and cure.

2. CLEANLINESS.--Cleanliness is next to godliness. Without cleanliness the
human body is more or less defiled and repulsive. A hint to the wise is
sufficient. The vagina should be cleansed with the same faithfulness as any
other portion of the body.

3. TEMPERATURE OF THE WATER.--Those not accustomed to use vaginal
injections would do well to use water milk-warm at the commencement; after
this the temperature may be varied according to circumstances
