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. F. W. BQNDURANT GENERAL AGENCY, Office over Silk & Carithers Bank, Corner Broad and Candler Streets, WINDER, GEORGIA. 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. LEATHERS & EAVENSON, Winder, Ga. 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. — Selected. 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.” DIRECTORY Methodist Episcopal Church, Rev. A. W. Quillian, Pastor. Preaching a very Sunday at 11:30 a. m. and 8 p. m.
