unto him a woman taken in adultery; and
when they had set her intthe midst,
"They say unto him, Master, this wom-
an was taken in adultery, in the very act.
''Now Moses in the law commanded US
that such should be stoned: but what
sayest thou2
This they said, tempting him, that they
might have to accuse him. But Jesus
stopped down, and with his finger wrote
on the ground, as though he heard them
not.
$50 when they continued asking him, he
lifted up himself, and said unto them, He
that Is without sin among you, let him first
cast stone at her.
"And again he stopped down and wrote
on the grovnd.
And they which heard it, being convict
ed by their own conscience, went out one
by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto
the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the
woman standing in the midst.
when Jesus had lifted up himself and
saw none but the woman, he said unto, her,
Woman, where are those thine accusers
hath no man condemned thee?
"She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus
said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee
20, and sin no more"

Virtue as an Aid to Vice.

It seems to some people to be inconsist-
ent to Danish the lewd women froln the
city. According to the view taken by
them it would be best to invite these dear
girls into our homes, get them to join the
church and possibly take classes In the
Sunday school. This would be 80 much
more Christnke than for rude policemen
to 20 down to the Red Light district and
notify the inmates to get out OF town
within.twelve hours or be sent to jail Tor so
days.
But who Is going to invite them ? The
idea Is absurd In the present state Of
public opinion, these women are lrretrleV-
ably lost. Not one In thousand Is ever
reformed, and even when reformed, what
family Is there who would give one OF them
work? What man is there who would
marry one OF them?
Such talk is mere mushy sentimentality
and is being used In the present case to deo
Law their removal or excuse the consent OF
the city authorities for these women to
stay here, although this is not the purpose
of the innocent spectators who are put
ting out this line OF talk.
There is no disposition on the part OF
anybody to further punish these women.
Their lot is already punishment enough.
But there is desire on the part OF those
who make and represent the best pub

which have existed here during the past
two years, when no open brotbels we're
permitted, and to abolish the temptation
to young men which these vicious resorts
offer.
This moral step Is being impeded by
those who go to the other extreme END say
we ought not to make these immoral Wom-
en- leave town; we ought to take them lnto
our bosoms and into our homes and make
nice ladies Of them.
From the above, which We copy from the
Spartanburg Journal, 1t will be seen that
Spartanburg has tackled big question.
1t seems that O certain lot Of hypcrites,
who had not lost all shame some two
thousand years ago, undertook the perse-
cution of fallen woman, who, like some
women Of today, have no friends on earth,
nor any hope beyond the grave. We find
the following record Of the result OF the
persecution OF woman who was brought
before our Saviour:
Jesus went unto the mount OF Olives.
"And early In the morning he came again
into the temple, and all the people came
unto him; and he sat down, and taught
them. .."s: " :. =, +,
