Women have many duties, some in common with men, aud not a few- peculiar to themselves; but among them all there is none which they owe to society greater than that which should lead them to take an active, personal and abiding interest in all moral reforms. The temper- attcc reform especially should find among women its warmest friends, its firmest supporters. For does not woman herself suffer from the great curse of intemperance? Ask the thousands of drunkards’ wives iu our land, and with a wail of anguish they would tell you that women suffer, even if it is only man that sins— the innocent thus sharing the punishment of the guilty. But then, wo an herself, alas! so far f rg' ts herself as to ‘‘lot k upon the wine when it is red,” ami finds herself the victim of t'tte “worm of tin* still.” Fi-r the sake of our sisterhood, for the sake of our sinning sisterhood, 1 call upon the women of our land to wake and arise, that tke claims of the temper- ance cause may be folly met l>y them.
