woMAN's CHRISTIAN HOME.
Something about the Home, Its
Directors, and Its Work.

There was an aiI-day meeting of the
BOARD of managers of the Woman'S
Christian home yesterday, at the home,
i6I John street. The women came early,
tie their lunches at the home,
md spent the afternoon dis
.nssing plans for the broader.
greater work the institution Is soon to
begin. The present home is 10y no
means a small house, but in cOmpari-
son with the needs of such an institu-
.ioE, it is very small. The new home is
he Winsiow house at North and De-
soto streets. 1t is large and hand
;oTe house OF about fifteen rooms, and
will be occupied by the home in the
course of fortnight.
The Lady Somerset Temperanceunion
las promised to furnish one room for
he rescue work and it is expected that
he Central union will furnish anothe.
People or the Town who are interested in
he work, and surely every woman who
Knows what life may be 10 other
woman is interested, are asked to help
n the furnishing of the house. The
acme has never yet refused shelter and
ympathy to any erring woman, but Ow
ng to its limited number of rooms,
he rescue work has not been carried
x
Hereafter. The rescue work means the
-eclaiming of women who, from one
cause or apother, have entered upon
ives of shame. 1t is work for which,
unfortunately, there is a great need in
st. Paul. The women who have en-
gagged in it already are very much graf
fed by their success, and hope great
things from the enlarged accommodate
lions of the home.
1t is only a brave woman who ever at
tempts to get back TO the straight and
narrow path from which she has slipped
and fallen, for the door through which
she may return is SO hopelessly barred
by the SpotleSs hands of the good
women-the pure woman. who, for the
most part. are negatively. good, having
never been tempted. sneering at
scars, because they never felt
wound. There are so many
brave women, though. SO many who do
earnestly turned their face TO the right
again and take hold of the hand the home
holds out. They ought to be helped
not helped as fallen souls and sinners,
out helped by sisters as woman to wOm-
an, for to God alone belongs the right
20 Judge.
There is safety i'll industry only, and
so the good women who conduct the
home ask for work for the other women
whom the matron calls always my
.amily." The home wants work of all
kinds to do-plain sewing, piece work
from factories, laundry work, mending,
and, in short, any work that will serve
20 keep hands from idleness and heart
from breeding over the bitter things OF
life.
The Woman's Christian Home has fol
The past decade been wonderfully sue
cessful. and, with its enlarged facilities
great and lasting good is to be expected
from its mission.
