LACK CT INTEREsT-Wc arc frequently
in regard to the temperance question by
many excellent Christian women. They
have never felt any personal Inconvenience
on account of the traffic in liquor ; they have
never come into immediate contact with
any suffering caused by it, and they have
only vague ideas that such suffering exists.
Let them once be made to realize what
danger impcnds over them and all their
friends, and they will at once become
interested in the matter.
From very earnest appeal made by
Judge Crosby to the women of Lowell,
Mass, we extract the following:
81 call upon you for your own personal pro
lection. In lfe's stream there arc cross cur>
rents cddics and falls, and though you may
be abstinent yourselves, you know not what
drunkarl may meet you on tho street, enter
your houses when unprotected, what mis-.
haps may come upon you from drinking
servants, the drivers Of your teams, managers
of cars in which you may ride or boats in
which you may traverse the waters, the mills
and shops in which you work &C everywhere,
and at all times, from fires aud disasters
occasioncd by carcl"ssnsss and unfaithful-
ness Of people of irregular habits. Who is
to lose by sobriety? Who does not gain by
abstinence
ave arc toiling for you and yours. We
desire to chain the 'rumscllcr instead of Civ
ing him rope; to shut up his den Of
iniquity, that weak or hardened men
men of appetite and irrcsolution-n?y find
it difficult to crafty their longinys. and Of
necessity must gain time and consideration
to sec the awful precipicc before them, and
thus be led again in paths of peace, comfort
