We solicit your influence in the temper^ Moe cause. You have been the greatest •uHerere from alcohol. Some of you have jipen •your homes made desolate and Wretched by the intemperance of those you loved. There are wives in agony from the degradation of their husbands^ 1*e«e are sisters who have followed be­ loved brothers to the drunkard's grave! You will need no urging to enlist under "the pure banner of temperasoe. Female Wends!, as you value your it^ppiuesa, as you regard the welfare of yfrur children, as you love your country, 4o not unite yourselves to the ineberiate; 4o not give the tempting beverage to your children.
