MISSION HOME
An Institution That Commends Itself to Public
Support.
BY REV. ]. A. SMITH.

shelves, but there is room for several
hundred more. There are families in
this city that could donate dozens Of
good books to this worthy institution
and never miss them. Place them
where they would do good. Across the
hall is the dining room and kitchen.
Here a good meal may be obtained
for Is cents. Numbers are awaiting
themselves of this opportunity to Sc
cure good meal surrounded by such
home-like influences.
Upstairs are the rooms occupied by
the Superintendent and his family. On
this same floor is the dOrmitory for
girls and women. Here are A number
of nice. clean beds that can be secured
for - cents a night, or when taken by
the week, IS cents. Adjoining the dor
mitory is a nicely fitted up parlor and
reading room. on the third floor is
the mems dOrmitory, where beds can
be secured for the same price. The
building is steam-heated, lighted by
electricity, and supplied with shower
baths throughout.
Here the man with a depleated pock-
etbook-the toiler on a meager salary
can find board and lodging for 81 50
per week. Not to speak of the many
other comforts with which the home is
supplied. 1t is the intention of the
iddItS WIN nave lnlS UDDlt NOIh III
charge to add fifteen single rooms to
their equipment at an early date.
1t is the proud boast of those who
have this work in hand, that no deserv-
ing man or woman without money shall
ever be turned away from their doors
when applying for meal or bed.
In the rear of this building is a two
story clubhouse that could be made very
comfortable for few hundred dollars,
where free beds are given to men who
have no money, provided they are So
Der when applying. In this building
are thirty beds. Every month hundreds
of free meals and beds are given to the
poor and unfortunate.
The superintendent has recently
gotten out a little book containing
twenty tickets which he sells for ST.
one of these tickets whenever pre-
scented entities the holder to soup and
bread; two, a good meal and three, a
nights lodging. Quite a number of
merchants. doctors, lawyers, ministers,
and others, have provided themselves
with these books. and give out the
tickets when approached for assist
ance.
In connection with this work gar
ments of all kinds are received and
distributed. Through the partial as
sistance of the city several sick and
unfortunate ones have been sent back
to their homes and friends. Hospital
and Jail work is also a feature of this
institution.
Here is an abiding work in our
midst which deserves and ought to
have the sympathy prayers and as
sistance of the citizens of Savannah
Here is an opportunity for those whom
the Lord has blessed with this worlds
goods to transmute some of the gold
which perishes into the coin of the
Kings realm, by assisting this most
worthy institution in it's unselfsh la
bors of love. Here Is an investment
that will not only pay large dividends
in this life but larger by a thousand
fold in the life to come.

any kind of artifice. the wealth of
others, and in setting his heart upon
riches and permitting the world to
draw him and lead him away from
spiritual love, which is love towards
the neighbor. This love of the world
is manifold. There is a love of wealth
for the sake of being exalted to
honors, when the honors alone are
loved. There is a love of honors and
dignities with view to the increase
of wealth There is a love of wealth
for the sake of various uses that give
delight in the world. There is a love
of wealth merely for the sake of
wealth, which is merely love.
These two evil loves. ruling in the
hearts of men. are the primal cause of
their breaking the commandments of
God, which are the laws of Divine order,
and of disregarding the righteous laws
of men; and their indulgence gives rise
to dens of wickedness and vice on
earth. And vet these unholy loves
have invaded, may and do still invade
the very sanctuary of the church, and
the hells on earth are more numerous
than those which the world knows as
''dens of vice" The latter are bad
enough, the former may be worse. The
only sure way of avoiding hell and its
torments, whatever these may be, is
to shun all evil. all unrighteousness in
thought, word and deed as sin against
God and humanity, that is, to shun evil
not from selfish, but from a purely
unselfsh motive, from love to God and
to our fellowmen: for to shun evil from
any other motive is not to shun it, but
only to restrain it: and such pent up
fires must sooner or later burst forth
And now d word about the torments
of hell. Swedenborg declares that the
Lord permits torments in the he1ls, be-
cause in no other way can evils be re-
strained and subdued. THE only means
of restraining and subduing evils and
of keeping the internal crew in bonds
is fear of punishment" But this pun
ishment is inflicted not by the Lord, but
by the evil upon one another. If nc
other motive than the fear of torment
restraints us from evil, then ours is the
state of those in hell.

mosaics into His discourses, and con-
stitute a great part of their undying
charm. But the strongest chara cter-
istic of His ministry, its greatest and
sweetest charm, was love. Men found
His greater attraction in the deep and
unselfish love that yearned over them,
that illumined His sad. care-worn
face, that quivered in His voice and
often filled His eyes with tears.
So plain was the out-shining of this
divine sympathy that the lowest and

publicans and harlots fell at His feet
in penitence and hope. Back of all

A few years ago a called meeting of
the several pastors of the city was held
in the parlors of the Young Mems
Christian Association and ministers of
the various denominations were pres
ent. The meeting was called to devise
ways and means looking toward the
opening of a home where meals, beds
and comforts could be secured at prices
within the reach of the poor. the I'M
fortunate and the downtrodden.
The need of such an institution had
been realized for years. The move
ment contemplated the material, the
moral and spiritual welfare of an I'M
fortunate, but oftentimes deserving
class of people. The value of such an
institution was not questioned. The
discussions recalled the fact that every
minister present realized the necessity
of such a work in Savannah. Prelim-
mary steps were taken looking toward
the opening of such a work. Commit
tees were appointed to investigate the
plan of building, cost, etc. Another
committee met with the Mayor to dis
cuss the matter of assistance from the
city. At a later meeting however, IN
forseen difficulties made it necessary
TO discontinue further efforts.
A few days ago by invitation of
Rev. ]. r. Mccormick, superintendent
of the W. c. T L. Rescue and Mis-
sion Work, l had the pleasure of in
specting it's new home, erected on
Liberty street near the Central Rail-
h. ra1a
and building for just such a work
as the one desired by the ministers
in their efforts. 1t is we'll worth the
time of any person to visit and in
spect the institution. Under the con-
secrated energy and management of
Rev. Mr. McCOrnica, his wife and
daughter the building and work were
destined to fill a long felt want in
Savannah. For eighteen years Mr.
McCornica has been engaged in this
kind of work. He came here at the
call of the w. c. T. U. from Montreal.
Canada where he was engaged in SINH
lar efforts.
The entire building from bottom to
top is q model of neatness and conven-
fence. On the first floor is the chapel
where evangelistic meetings are con-
Quoted each night by Supt. Mccormick
or some visiting minister-every Satur-
day night free supper is served af-

ings sit the rich and the poor the

and the sinner. Every person is made
to feel at home. Not a few have pro-
