(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. (To be continued.) 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 ing something you ought to have. Jakey.

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 / Treat your car right.
