There are more boys born into the world than girls, yet when adult years are reached the women outnumber the men. Boys are always considered more " difficult to rear " than girls, and the cause of this fact is difficult to ascertain. That our women of the upper and middle classes are improving in physique generally would appear to be a fact; yet any one who observes at all cannot but be struck by the fact that the boys of even the well-to-do are not apparently improving Physique of our Boys and... Girls 83 in similar fashion. Many assert that it is even the other way, and declare that our boys are not only not improving, but that they are not developing as they ought. How often do we observe a family group consisting of an average-sized mother, of tall, well-set-up girls, and of rather ill-developed, often weakly-looking boys. The cause of the increased development of our girls we have discussed, but why are the boys not correspondingly improving? It is, of course, a physiological fact that girls develop earlier than boys ; that a girl at twelve to fifteen is frequently taller and stronger than boys of her age, and that it may not be until sixteen or seventeen that the boy begins to indicate what the physique of his manhood is to be.
