the evidence of mild mental de-

which led her victims to submit with

This crusade against smoking was
the worst of her work. Her physical
assaults on the liquor joints in Kansas
towns had one justification. These

less, and their invasion by woman

ont of the fluids, could not be more
lawless than were the men conduct
ing these places.
When she extended her crusade in
TO other states, in which the liquor
traffic was legalized, and when, n
particular, her mania took turn
against the devotees of My LAZY Mic
