IHE STORY Of \ WHITE ROSE.
Several years ago one of New
York's wealthy society women be
came a member of the Christian
organization known as the King’s
Daughters, and she began to work
“in 11 is name " One day as she
passed through her conservatory
with her gardner, getting him to
cut the flowers she would suggest,
they e.Mine to a white rose hush on
which was one single white rose,
which had just reached perfection.
This rose hush was said to he the on
ly one of its kind in America, and
the garden* r was now rewarded ly
its perfect rose for the many days of
attention he had given it . When
she ordered, “Clip me that rose,”
he could not refrain from saying,
“(> madam, do not ask that of me,"
though he had been loath to cut
many of the beauties they had thus
far gathered. “You forget, madam,
that rose was to be placed before
your honored guest at the dinner
tomorrow night," he pleaded. But
when the lady commanded the see-
on and time, “Cut it.,’' he did not
dare refuse. In a few hours she
stood with her flowers, ringing for
admittance at the prison door on
Blackwell’s Island. When she en
tered. she asked permission to dis
tribute the flowers to the female
prisoners. “In His name" she
went from cell to cell, passing a
rose between the bars to each in
mate. At last all were distributed
except the white rose; then she
turned to the warden <uid asked:
\\ ho is the woman in this prison?
Have I seen her?” “(), no,” said
the man; “sin is confined in a cell
far removed from these, for she so
abandoned that she would d<. moral
ize them.” “Take me to'her,”
requested the Ring's Daughter.
’Madam, that I cannot do; you do
not know what you ask. If vou
went near her, she would call you
vile names that would shock you. I
ARE YOU SA TiSFIED TO FACE THE FUTURE
with its uncertainties without endeavoring to provide
protection for those who have been entrusted to your care?
SAFETY AND SURETY CAN BE HAD
by giving them the benefits of your efTortsby talcing out
life insurance NOW.
THE STA TE LIFE INSURANCE CO., OF INDIANAPOLIS, IND ,
offers the best protection, doublv secured bv the “COM
PULSORY RESERVE DEPOSIT LAW” and has
been the means of making thousands independent when
the independent ones needed it most.

In some cases they last long'er. They never need
repairs. They’re fire-proof, storm-proof. They re
duce the cost of insurance, and they’re easy to lay.
They preserve the building too, by keeping out damp
ness: so if you want a thoroughly cozy home in winter,
and a cool house in summer, you can’t do better than
see that Cortright Shingles*are used for the covering.

cannot grant your request.”
But this woman, who in the social
world had only to command to he
obeyed, at last prevailed on the
warden to take her to this outcast.
She felt “in His name”- that this
wretched creature, though wander
ing far from their King, was her
sister. As she approached the cell
she realized that all the warden had
pictured to her was only too true.
As soon as this poor woman heard
footsteps she uttered terrible curses;
but the King’s Daughter pressed
forward. When she reached the cell
she held the rose out to the prisoner,
who instantly ceased her oaths. Sh*
snatched the hand of this true fol
lower of Jesus, and with a scream
fell to the floor, crying, “My moth
or! mv mother! "
A week later, when the King’s
Dangeter returned, she did not have
to ask to see the worst woman, but
the warden said; “Tw nty-eight
wants to see you; will you go to her? ’ ’
As she came in view of the lonely
cell she saw a pale face press* and
against the bars. She heard no
profane language now, hut a plead
ing voice asking: “Will vou come
in and talk f o me?”
The warden drew the bolt, the
King’s Daughter entered, and there
on the hard cot sat the woman of
wealth and fashion with her arm
around the poor criminal, who was
sobbing on lur breast while she told
her life's story. She was born in
Scotland, and was the only child of
a clergyman. One birthday, years
ago, her mother gave her a white
rose hush, which she planted be
neath her father's study window.
Each day when the flowers were in
1 bloom she would gather them for
| her father In an unguarded mo
ment she sinned. Her mother died
heartbroken, and her father went
sorrowing to an early grave. She
; came to America and went from bad
to worse until she was put in prison.
Nothing touched her heart until she
saw the white rose; it instanth re
called her innocent childhood, and
elu longed to be happy again. “I
have tinned so deeply,” she said.
“Do you think God will forgive
me?”
Then his messenger told her how
loving and merciful God is, and
how he longs to save each one of us,
hut that we are not always willing
to let him. She Begged her to whol
ly trust Christ'.' love, telling le r he
is able to save to the uttermost
those who come in faith to him;
fend though our sins be red like
scarlet, he will wash them whiter
than snow.
She did repent, and God, by his
Holy Spirit, gave her that peace
which the world cannot give nor
take away. Today there is not a
more earnest worker “in His name”
in New York. She can go among
the fallen where other women dare
not go, for she has been there be
fore and appreciates their needs.
This is a true story. Just that one
white rose, from out a whole conti
nent of flowers, sent acioss the seas
to hi >om just there in the garden
of the King’s Daughter; just that
one woman, a crushed flower
trampled and soiled by the world
and sin, to whom that rose and
none other would take God’s mes
sage; and between the two, God’s
daughter, his messenger, to bring
’hem together. And so the rose
went to the woman, and one day
she will sit down "and honored
guest” at trie King’s great feast. —

Willie’s Dream of Papa.
Willie (very seriously) —Rapa, 1
had a strange dream this morning.
Rapa —Indeed ! What was it?
Willie —I dreamed, papa that 1
went to heaven; and when St
Peter met me at the gate, instead of
showing me the wav to the golden
street, as I expected, he took me
out into a large field, ana in the
middle of the field there was a lad
der reaching away up into the sky
and way out of sight. Then
St. Peter told me that heaven was
at the top, and that in order to get
there I must take a big piece of
chalk he gave me and slowely climb
the ladder, writing on each ruwg
some sin 1 had commited.”
Papa (laying down his newspa
per — And did you finally reach
heaven, my son?
Willie —No, papa, for just as I
was trying to think of something to
write on the second rung 1 looked
up and saw you coming down.
Papa —And what was 1 coming
down for?
Willie — That’s what I asked you
and you told me you were coming
for more chalk.
They Couldn’t Beat That
A minster walking along a road
saw a crowd of boys sitting in a ring
with a small dog in the center.
“What are you doing with that
dog,” he asked-
Vv hoover tell the lie, he wins
the dog. ' said one of the boys.
“Oh! said the minister. “1
am surprised at you buys, when I
was a hay 1 never told a lie.”
There was a moment’s silence.
Then one of the hoys said:
“Give the gent the dog, Jim.”
