REAL DISCUSSION
OF A VITAL QUESTION
ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE ASKS EV-
sRYBODY TO GIVE THEIR HON
EST OPINIONS ON THE SUBJECT.

The Anti-Saloon League is again to
come before the public in a series of
articles. This time it is not to be one
person writing a number of articles,
but a number of persons each writing
one article. The intention is to have
an article appear in each of the Homo
on until election time. Tuesday is the
day for speaking through The Star
An invitation is extended to the pub
lie to join in discussing the articles
from time to time as they appear. The
invitation too is insistent with respect
to the temperance forces. The agents
of the liquor traffic can be depended on
to say their say since they are finan-
cially concerned. 1t is the temperance
elements who must speak without the
financial stimulus. There is only re-
gard for public welfare to prompt
them. The easy thing is to keep still,
the most popular thing perhaps. But
it is not the patriotic thing, the right
thing. For all of us to follow that
course would leave the temperance
cause with no champion from any
quarter For the temperance elements
to keep silent when the liquor forces
are aggressive means to give the i'm
preston that the sweep of public senti-
ment is against temperance. We be-
lieve dominant public sentiment, II 1t
could only be made to show its hand,
points in the other direction. We want
the impression too to be in harmony
with the real fact. 1t may mean finan-
cial sacrifice to some TO espouse the
right. But what if it does? The worlds
saviors have always been those who
have been willing to sacrifice.
Show your colors and let us know
what you think. We may not always
be able TO agree on details. But II we
did there wouldn't be so much need for
discussion. We don't expect perfect
agreement even in the papers which
will appear We simply wish good
natured discussion of principles and
conditions, hoping thereby to help each
OTHER toward the truth, and to make II
possible all together to move forward
in the direction of the ideal.
We should even welcome Independent
papers dealing with special phases OF
the liquor problem We have topics
we are evry anxious to have someone
treat of, and which have not yet been
assigned. We should be very glad in
deed to confer with any one who may
be interested enough to write.
Very respectfully

Per G. d. EDWARDS, Chairman.

suffer in silence and drift along from
bad to worse, knowing full well that
they ought to have immediate assist
ance, but natural modesty impels
them to shrink from exposing them
selves to the questions and probable

Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation.
Women suffering from any form of
female weakness are invited to promptly
communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at
Lynn, Mass. All letters are received,
opened, read and answered by women
only. A woman can freely talk of her
private illness to woman; thus has
been established the eternal confidence
between Mrs. Pinkham and the women
of America which has never been
broken. Out of the vast volume of
experience which she has to draw from,
it is more than possible that she has
gained the very knowledge that will
help your case. She asks nothing in
return except your goodwill, and her
advice has relieved thousands. Surely
any woman, rich or poor, is very foolish
if she does not take advantage of this
generous offer of assistance.
If you are i'll, don't hesitate to get a
bottle of Lydia E. Pinlham' sVegetable
Compound at once, and write Mrs. Pink
ham, Lynn. Mass, for special advice.
When a medicine has been successful
in restoring to health so many women,
you cannot well say, without trying it,
II do not believe it will help me-"
