So lar liotn thai the fteedotu ot woman

Oca siHters of the W. 0. T. U. aro up to

Mrs. Hobart and Mrs. Foster, being
Christians, should at once put thomsolves
in tho way of accommodating their diffi

bandied epithets that are, to say tho loast,
unladylike and offensive to tho enrs of
the general public Such an exhibit in
men would bo deplorable; It is doubly so in
women claiming to be ChiiHtian Temper
anco Unlonista, who have evidently for
gotten every Christian precept of peace and
ait) in words at lonal the very opposlto of
