A Wandering Boy and a White
 Ribbon.
JENNIE N. STANDIFER.
Edlted by Mrs SturdIVun

(Continued from last week.
 The boy was silent. Without another word. Mrs. Hall opened her Bible and read the ffty-fifth chapter of Isaiah. When the gracious invitation was finished and she said: Let us pray" every man in the jail reverently bent his head. Kneeling on the soiled floor, Mrs. Hall offered an earnest prayer for the prisoners, with an especial plea for the young boy. Her petition was followed by one from Mrs. Ward. Rising from their knees, the two women joined in singing. "There Is Fountain Filled With Blood" It was followed by short exhor- tation from Mrs. Hall for all to seek that cleansing blood. As she turned to go the boy stepped forward and touched the tiny white ribbon bow on her dress.
 Mother wore one once"
 "Doesn't she wear 1t now?'
 No: she took 1t off when His voice choked with unshed tears.
 We are coming to the jail every day this week, and you can tell me all about it, said Mrs. Hall cheerfully. You must ac- cept the gracious invitation. .
 He shook his head. Nothing can save me. It is too late''
 With God all things are possi- ble.
 That boy is worth our while, said Mrs. Hall, as the two des- cended the stairs.
 .'He seems terribly hardened for one so young" replied Mrs. Ward.
 That's Tom Rueker, the most daring desperado in the state,' said the jaller. "He was brought here to await his trial for attempt ing to shoot the sheriff who was trying to arrest him When he's drunk he IS holy terror, and he's rarely ever sober when he's out of jail.'
 Where are his parents?" ask ed Mrs. Hall.
 Somewhere in Tennessee. 1 don't think they have been able to keep track of him for several years. If you white ribboners can do anything to reform that boy you'll save the public crib pile, for he's of the variety of law-breakers that's expensive. .
 May we come back tomorrow?"
 ''Yes, and any other day you wish.
 During the next week there were many visits to the jail. Tom Rucker received the two women with varying moods Sometimes he tested and laughed at their earnest talk, and at other times
