CROSS, PEEVISH GIRLS. MORE TO BE PITIED TITAN BLAMED. “She seems to bo so irritable and peevish lately 1 don’t know what is the matter with her,” said a mother about her seventeen-year-old daughter.

She has pains and aches that no one pities because she has grown melancholy and silent. She has queer fancies; will eat sweets while sho refuses wholesome food, or take a whim for raw rice, or sometimes chalk.
