To show how Uod in the Bible looked upon this crime, 1 point you to the rogue's picture gallery in some parte of the Bible, the picture of the people who have committed this u natural crime. Here is the headleaa trunk of Haul on the walls of Bathshan. Here is the man who chased little David ten feet in stature chasing four. Here is the man who consulted a clairvoyant, Witch of Kndor. Here it a man who, whipped in battle, instead of surrendering hi sword with dig nity, as many a man baa done, asks his ser vant to slay him, and when the servant de clines, then the giant plants the hilt of the sword in the earth, the sharp point sticking upward, and he throws hia body oa it and expires, the coward, the suicida here is Ahitopbel, the Mschiavelliof olden times, be traying his best friend David In order that he may become prime minister of Absalom, and Joining that fellow In his attempt at imrlcide. hot getting what be wanted by change of politics, he takes a short cut out of a dis graced life into the s dclde's eternity.

There Is his post mortem photograph In the book of MamueL Hut the hero of this group is Judos Iscariot. Dr. Donne says he was a martyr, and we have in our day apologist for him.

What is the cause! I charge upon Infi delity and Agnosticism this whole thing. It there lie no hereafter, or if that bereatter be blissful without reference to how we live and how we die, why not mov hack the folding doors bet w eon this world al the noxtl And when our existence here biy-omos troub lesome, why not pass right ovei- "uto Klysiumt 1'ut tins down among your ni-r t solemn re flections, nnd consider it after oil go to your homes; there has never I icon a case of sulciilo where the oierutor was not either demented, and therefore irresponsible, or an infidel. I clmllengo all the ages, and I challenge the universe. There nover has been a case of self-destruction while in full appreciation of his immortality and of the fact that that im mortality would tie glorious or wretched ac cording as he accepted Jesus Christ or reject ed Him. You say it i a business trouble, or you snv it is electrical currents, or it is this, or it is that, or It. is the other thine Why not go clear ba'k, my friend, and acknowledge that in every cas it is the abdica tion of reason or the totching of infi delity which practically fay: "if you don't like this lifo gut out 'of it, and you will land either in annihilation, where there are no nob to pay, no pers cutions to sutler, no gout to torment, or you w 11 land where there will bu everything glorious and noth ing to pay for it." Infidelity always bus been apologetic for self-immolation. After Tom l'aine's "Ape of Reason" was published and widely read there was a ma.'kud increase of self-sIuUKbtnr. A man in London heard Mr. Owon deliver his intldel lecture on Socialism, and went home, stit down, and wrote tho.se words: Jesui Christ is one of the weakrat characters in history, and the Ilible is the greatest pos sible disvption," ami thou shot himself. David Hume wrote these words: "It would be no crime for mo to divert the Nile or tho Danulio from its natural lied. Where then can bo the crime in my diverting a few drops of blood from their ordinary channel I" And having written tho e-ssv he loaned it to n friend, the friend read it, wrote a letter of thanks and admiration, and shot himsolf. Amiendix to tho snmo book. ltouaseau, Voitaire, (iibbon, Montaigne, under certain circumstances, were apologetic for self-immolation. Intldelity puts up no bar to people's rushing out from this world into the next. They teach u it does not make any difference how you live here or g out of this woi Id, yoi will land either in au oblivious nowhere or a glorious some where. And intldelity holds the upper end of the rope for the suicide, and aims the pistol with which a man blows bis brains out, and mixes the strychnine for the lust swallow. If infidelity could carry the day and persuade the majority of people in this country that it doe not m'ike any difference how you go out of the world you will land sufely, tho Hudson and the Knt river would lie so full of corpses the ferry Units would be impeded In their progress, ami the crack of a suicide's pistol would bo no tnoro alarming than the rumble of a street car. I have sometimes beard it discussed whether the great dramatist was a Christian or not.

Would God that the coroners would .lie bravo in rendering the right verdict, and when In a case of irresponsibility they say: "While this man was demented he took bis life;" in the other case say: "Having read iutldul books and attended intldel lectures, which obliterated from this man's mind nil appreciation ot anything like future retri Vutlou, he committed suli-slaughter!

My friends, if ever your lite through its abrasions and its molestations, should seem to be unbearable, and you are tempted to quit it by your own behest, do not consider yourself as worse than others. Christ him self was tempted to cust Himself from the 1 roof of the Temple, but as Ha resisted, . so resist ye. Christ came to medicine ' all our wound. In your trouble I prescribe ' life instead of death. I'ennle who have had ! it worse than you wilt ever have it have gone sonmui on me way. iiememoer that uod keeps the chronology of your life with as much precision as ito keeps the chronology of nation, your death as well as your cradle.
