SACRIFICE.

SACRIFICE.
Jesus never deceived his followers.
He said: "Whosoever he be among
you that forsaketh not all that he
hath he cannot be my disciple" TO
live a lifo Of sacrifice is to be a bless
ing to others When Florence Night
ingale recently entered upon her seth
year the Lord Mayor of London
granted her the freedom of the city
and the King and Queen sent their
congratulations. Her namo Is in
seperably connected with the Crimean
war. In 1854. $4,000 men sailed for
the Crimea: the following spring 49,
900 were sick in hospitals. England
was stirred through and through
five million dollars were contributed
to aid tho afflicted the medical staff
was increased until there was a doc
tor to every hundred soldiers. One
man, Sir Sidney Herbert, of the
War Department. said: This is a
woman's work. an6 there is only ono
woman VINO can do It, and that IS
Florence Nightingale"
Two great tributes were paid her
in connection with the Crimean war
One was, that as she passed through
the wards. the soldiers turned their
heads upon their pillows to kiss her
shadow. and the other occurred at a
dinner given to the officers OF the
british army ard navy on their return
from Crimea. Lord Stafford suggested
that every guest should write on
piece Of paper the name OF the per-
son whose deeds in the Crimean war
would engrave themselves most in-
delibly In the history of the British
PEOPLE, and when the papers we're
examined. every one had written the
name of Florence Nightingale.
A life OF sacrifice blesses oneself /
When DR.. Gunsaulus was at one
time preparing a sermon or John IS:
81. which was Jesus' answer TO PLATE:
ITO this end was born. and for this
cause came / into the world" he said
that his nephew entered the room
aud said, as he read the text: u
don't see why / was ever born. nor
why / came into tho world" but
this young man was in the fatal Iro-
luois theater fire; he saved seven
teen lives and died himself, but died

When DR.. Glnsaulus was In the
south of France. q man who knew
that he was an American came up 10 |

me, sir? l saved myself" and one |
standing by said to DR. Gunsaulus:
do not let him disturb you. the poor
man is demented."
These two pictures stand striking

the life that is lived in the spirit !

Is too great to make for Jesus. II
Is the spirit of Saint Paul who said:
II am a Hebrew of the Hebrews"
but when he had pictured all his

Christ"
"Yea doubtless, and count all
things but loss for the excellency Of
the knowledge Of Christ Jesus, my
Lord: for whom I have suffered the
loss of all things. and do count them
but dung, that I may win Christ"
To this spirit OF sacrifice ! would

weighted with precious metal; bright
red trousers, with an inch and half
stripe of gold braid running down the
sides, and wearing jewel-hilted
sword. In q gold and silver scabbard.
There was an atmosphere ABOUT the
wedding, that, while approached at
ether International ceremonies the
kind. was never equaled. Quiet dig
nifty took the place OF fiuttering excite
ment and military uniforms broke up
the black and white simplicity.
The ceremony was the one used by
the Roman Catholic church 70 wed one
of its faith to a Protestant. Monsignor
Lavelle awaited the two young people
at a gold and white predieu, with en-
broldered cushions. Because the bride
is not Catholic, there was no solemn
blessing OF the ring with holy water,
which always Is striking feature OF
the Catholic marriage.
The bride wore n historic tiara OF
diamonds--an heirloom which has
been in the Szechenyi family for many
generations, as we'll as ether jewels
All OF them are heirlooms.
Rare Scenic spIendor.
The scenic setting OF the wedding
was of rare beauty, and attracted
marked attention by the fact that moth
ing was overdone. There was no at.
tempt at elaboration. A feature was
the national colors of Austro-Hungaria
and the coat of arms Of the Szechenyi
house.
Somehow there was something IN
the manner OF the bridegroom az he
stood beside the bride. before the
priest. that developed the deepest in
terest OF the spectatorG--a tenderness.
a grace. and manner of ease that
mutely bore out the statements oft-re-
peated by members OF both families TO
the effect that the marriage was pure
ly love-match. This fact caused a
great amount OF whispered comment.

bank OF rare floral beauty--that OF the
slender American girl and the military
