A LETTER FROM “LAST APPEAL.” I have received very many letters from people interested in the progress of “The Last Appeal,” the young girl who is so bravely overcoming the ravages of morphine. I thank, in her and my own name, each and every one of the friends who have her good at heart. Here is an extract from-a letter re- eived from her yesterday Dear Miss Grey: 1 wish you could see my heat and this letter would not seem so cold. If there were just one like you to every thousand of folks like us, there would be no need of the courts and the judges as the Great Creator intended. It is through my trust in you that I get control of this wicked self, I have found that no matter how good or how bad a woman is, if there is one good woman who has faith and confidence in her, the victory is half won. I have seen it time without number. T just saw The Star Sunday, and I feel I still have someone fighting on the outside. If 1 can ever be a help to others, I will feel there is really something worth while. With the help of God and you T hope to be a different, a better woman. I am not the same creature you first knew, Why did you spare me to the public? ‘There is a lovely lady here addicted to a drug habit. I wish she had you for a friend. I have tried to help her, but you know the old injunction, “Physician, heal thyself,” so I am afraid I didnot do much. There are not words to thank you. Humbly and faithfully, THE LAST APPEAL. A.—I_ print this, not for self-emulation, but that women may see how one but just snatched from the depths is stretch- ing her hand to another sister in distress, and to show how they who draw aside their skirts from every semblance of sin, may help the ones who are making a desperate fight. You are spared to the public, “Last Appeal,” because the public needs such women as you, who know the depaths and are Fitted to help ferent woman—that is, the real woman is rid of the wrong that of kindness may have done the “lovely lady” in the hospital. At least it did me good to know you made the effort, and every effort bears fruit sometime, somewhere.
