The women of a Pennsylvania

town recently petitioned for a licensed saloon, urging "that if a license is granted and our husbands can obtain a drink when desired they will not bring it home in large quantities, as now, or go away to Harrisburg for their liquor and remain away from home." From any view of the case the liquor question is a hard one to handle. As it seems slow work to pass a prohibition law, it would be well to promptly kill every mau who

develops a taste for liquor. This

is about the only solution to the whisky question. SPRING DRESS GOODS
