On This Date in Minnesota History: December 5

December 5, 1872 – Elizabeth Cady Stanton made her second visit to St. Cloud, Minn., on this date. Her lecture on this “visit was called ‘The Coming Girl’ and she urged women to ‘stop lacing and let their waists be as nature intended,’ to stay away from cosmetics, and to get a job so that they could provide for themselves.”
