Excerpt from If Woman Knew! If Woman Cared!: Woman Against Intemperance

It is repugnant to me to insist upon this sad subject. Listen, pray, to a physician and moralist, who will tell you all that needs be told of the woman drunkard.

The greedy woman is a disgrace; the woman addicted to drink is vile. We do not wish to contemplate for long the degradation into which a few women sink. As Christians, we shall stretch a helping hand to raise them up, while we turn our eyes away; as men and artists, we should tread them underfoot or take flight.

Never did we feel so sad as at the sight of a woman in the state of intoxication, disgustingly obscene, and followed by the jeers of the mob and the shouts of children.
