The Kings Daughter in the House.

The following little gem of thought
from the Ladies' Home Journal is SO
beautiful that it may well occupy a
small space in our w. G. L. U. column
although it does not bear upon the
subject of temperance especially. Wo-
man and the home are so inseparably
connected that all will enjoy reading
the little scrap:
The glimmer of the silver cross is
never so bright to my eyes as when it
rests upon the heart of a young moth
er whose heart is bound up in the nur-
sery. Oh, let me beseech you, dear
Daughters of the King, make every
thing of the home. If my mother had
left us children a million dollars it
might have ruined us; but she left us
"a legacy of a memory of such devotion
to husband and children that over the
lapse of many years we can hear her
gentle voice THAT l never heard raised
in angry tone) and it is no wonder that
seven of us almost worship her. All,
we are apt to give our sweetest flowers,
our sweetes smiles to strangers. No
yiolets will ever be SO sweet to me as
Mississippi leader. (Jackson, Miss.) 1892-1895, 1894-04-24

Rev. Mr.. Knight, Baptist Evangelist
from Waynesboro, has been holding a
series of meetings in Holly Springs,
and on last night he paid the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union a beau
tiful tribute of praise which was much
appreciated by those present who are
fortunate enough to be white-ribbon-
ers. Such kindly mention of the good
work of our organization cannot fail to
do good. AS he stood before that aud
fence numbering SO many young per
sons among his hearers and so grandly
held aloft the white banner of temper
ance, l thought that every loyal W. c.
T. U. woman will rejoice to honor such
a brave, fearless Christian man and
recognize in him a power for good in
the temperance work.
May the young man who is tempted
by the wine glass and the poor miserd-
ble drunkard alike find in him friend
ready to lend helping hand, to lead
him upward to better life.
May the God he loves and serves bless
Bro. Knight and give him health and
strength that he may live many years
in loving service for the Master. May
it be his to win many souls from the
'highways and hedges" of sin into the
blessed life of Christ and His right
eouSneSs.
