JESUS AND THE
WOMAN OF SAMARIA.
(By. Mercer Williams.)
(Continued from last week)
Jesus answered and said un
to her whosoever drinketh of
this water shall thirst again.
John 4:13.
Jesus made known to her the
fact that that water was literal
and that its satisfaction did not
last long; and more than that
He pointed out to her the fact
that even if she did drink she
would thirst again.
How precious are these words
of our Lord. From nature we
learn that literal water does
not bring lasting satisfaction,
for we thirst and thirst again.
But let us notice how vividly
and plainly Jesus revealed the
great source of life and perma
nent satisfaction.
The woman saith unto Him,
Sir, give me this water that I
thirst not, neither come hither
to draw. John 4 :15.
Now she begins to realize and
begins to ask Him for water
that brings lasting satisfaction
for which the woman herself
points out two motives. One be
cause she would not thirst a
gain. Another is because she
would not have to come hither
to draw.
Now, we are to notice in this
verse a willingness on the wo
man’s part to rid herself of for
mer things. In other words, a
desire to change her mode ol
life, and to this all sinners must
come before they can be saved
Jesus saith unto her, Go call
thy husband and come hither.
John 4:16.
He knew before He ask her,
yet He asked in order to re
ceive her confession. In other
words He meant for her to con
fess her sins and come to Him
who could cleanse her from all
unrighteousness. He knows a
bout all sin. He knows even the
deepest secrets of our hearts.
He knows our hidden desires.
He knows our concealed mot
ives. He knew more about the
woman and her life than she
knew herself. He knows more
about us than we know our
selves.
'file woman Answered and said
I have no husband. Jesus saith
onto her thou hast well said
1 have no husband. John 4:17.
Jesus commended her on the
answer that she gave. Yet, I
believe the woman was trying
to conceal her former life, for
;.t the time she replied to out
Lord she did not entertain the
slightst idea that He knew a
bout her conduct in the past. 1
have no husband was her re
ply, and sure enough she an
swered right, yet in the next
verse we will note the great
revelation He made to her.
whether her confession in re
gard to her husband was hon
est or dishonest, we know not
but iet that be as it may, she
confessed.
For thou hast had five hus
bands, and he whom thou now
hast is not thy husband, in that
saidst thou truly. John 4:18.
Now He begins to reveal to
her the very secret sins of her
life. He begun to tell her things
which astonished her beyond
measure. He begins to point out
to her His knowledge of her
conduct, and I want to say that
there has never been a sinner
saved yet without facing and
realizing the great revelation
of their sin. Jesus revealed and
the woman confessed If we will
confess our sins He will forgive
and more abundantly pardon.
The woman saith unto Him,
Jii , I perceive thou art a proph
it. John 4:,1f.
She believed He was a props
et because He revealed to hei
her life. He told her all about
her life. In fact, he brought to
her memory afresh things she
thought no one knew but her
self, and He spoke with knowl
edge so direct that no wonder
her eyes were opened. No won
der her understanding was
deepened, and in astonishment
she said I perceive that thou art
a prophet.

FROM SPOT.
The continued rains are cause
for a lot of whitling at the coun
try stores.
The boys gave the little coy
ot Wolf’ a heluva chase Friday
but failed to capture him.Some
runner he is.
Mr. G. L. Stovall and family
of Gainesville spent Saturday
night with their daughter, Mrs
M. G. Williams.
Mr. W. A. Wolfe and family
visited at Waleska Saturday
night and Sunday.
If the North Georgian had a
few correspondents that were
as near all the time on the job
with something interesting as
L. H. it would be a great help
to the paper, and I am sure it
would be appreciated by the
editor.
Many new hats and frocks
failed to make their debut Sun
day on account of the rains..
Mrs. N. E. Wolfe of Cumming
spent the weekend at her old
home.
We learn that whiskey has
been brought into our county
and stored at several places for
Saturday night and Sunday
sale to boys or any one that will
buy it. And often this is done
near an allday gathering. Citi
zens this is bringing hell right
to your door and if allowed to
continue will be cause for some
one wearing stripes.
Very little old cotton in this
section now and poor prospect
for any new.
If you are not attending Sun
day school at Spot you are miss

have. Jakey.

WAITING FOR ME.
I’ve a little angel waiting for
me on the beautiful banks of
the crystal sea, not impatient
ly waiteth my darling there,for
a smile lights up his face so
fair and his little harp rings out
so clear, so soothing, sweet to
faith’s listening ear,and he liv
es on the smiles of the Savior’s
love, who so tenderly called
my lamb above.
I’ve a little angel waiting for
me on the beautiful banks of
the crystal sea. Ever free from
sorrow and pain, spotless and
pure from all earthly stain, nev
er in erring paths to rove, ever
more, evermore, walking in the
lights this little angel robed in
white.
I’ve a little angel waiting for
me on the beautiful banks of
the crystal sea. When my heart
is yearning and throbbing in
pain, and I long to clasp up my
darling again.l look away from
this earthly strand to the beau
tiful banks of the better land: I
think of the angel waiting up
there, and offer to God a thank
ful prayer.
I’ve a little angel to welcome
me when I, too, shall stand by
the crystal sea, when the great
refiner has fitted me in me His
own image shall clearly see,
when the robe of Christ’s right
eousness my soul shall seek the
home of the blest on the beau
tiful banks of the crystal sea.
my darling, still waiting, shall
welcome me.

Corn Liquor and

Quite a difference you will say, but in one respect
there is a similarity. A bar-keeper used to buy a barrel
of corn liquor and make two barrels out of it. Some re
finers blend, mix and compound their oils. The bar
keeper didn’t mix water with his liquor to make it bet
ter, neither does the refiner mix his oil to make itibetter;
both were mixed because there was more profit to the
dealer, and because the buyer could be fooled
