Dear N. B. Friends:

Dear M b. Friends:
enjoyed reading Naillil's letter, and when
she touched ON the liquor question, I realized
that she was witnessing sights similar to
many that are seen in this CRY. When first
came here 70 live 1t was very sad sight to
see men snd women in An intoxicated con-
dition walking ON the street. often attend
the W. g. 7. U. 1t has done much for the fallen.
often wish that the women here could vote
ON the temperance question this present year,
and try and rid the city Of bar rooms. Am
afraid that the cigarette habit in the future
viii in many ways be - injurious ~ the Ii
censed saloon.
Thoroughly agree with B. e. 9. and HIS Sc
lection. A few have desired to exchange
postcards. would be glad TO do 50, ~ am
getting collection.
For the benefit Of Uncle Dudley, win send

ounces Of dandelion root, one ounce Of gem

Dear N. B. Friends:

LcQT w. D. r IbSRR0s
1t gives me much pleasure to place the
poem, Sometime" ut the bead Of our col
umn this week, for . number Of reasons.
II is the first contribution from this friend
Of mine. The lines have comforted many
who could not understand the sorrows
and disappointments that have fallen to
who has recently met with another sad
loss, some way feel that this message
comes to her from one who, although not
even knowing her, would fully under
stand her need of comfort. Is this one Of
the occasions when mutual needs find
mutual help? We all unite in sympathy
for the one whom we have known SO long
and 50 well through the column.
