Dr. Tolmage Pleads for Heroic Men and
Women.
Advice to Christians to Broaden Out and Not Re-
main In Old Ruts—A Sermon of Encouragement
to All Christian Workers—S8trong Characters
Needed.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.—Dr. Talmage
here shows the style of Christian character
required for the times in which we live
and pleads for more heroics. The text is
Esther iv, 14, “Who knoweth whether
thou art come to the kingdom for such a
time as this?’
Esther the beautiful was the wife of
Ahasuerus the abominable. The time had
come for her to present a petition to her
infamous husband in behalf of the Jewish
nation, to which she had once belonged.
She was afraid to undertake the work lest
she should lose her own life, but her cous-
in, Mordecai, who had brought her up,
encouraged her with the suggestion that
probably she had been raised up of God for
that peculiar mission. ‘‘Who knoweth
whether thou art come to the kingdom for
such a time as this?’’
Esther had her God appointed work.
You and I have ours. Itis my business
to tell you what style of men and women
you ought to be in order that you meet
the demand of the age in which God has
cast your lot. So this discourse will not
deal with the technicalities, but only with
the practicabilities. When two armies
have rushed into battle, the officers of ei-
ther army do not want a philosophical dis-
cussion about the chemical properties of
human blood or the nature of gunpowder.
They want some one to man the batteries
and take out the guns. And now, when
all the forces of light and darkness of
heaven and hell have plunged into the
fight, it is no time to give ourselves to the
definitions and formulas and technicalities
and conventionalities of religion. What
we want is practical, earnest, concentrat-
ed, enthusiastic and triumphant help.
Aggressive Christians.
In the first place, in order to meet the
special demand of this age, you need to be
an unmistakable, aggressive Christian.
Of half and half Christians we do not
want any more. The church of Jesus
Christ will be better without them. They
are the chief obstacle to the church’s ad-
vancement. I am speaking of another
kind of Christian. All the appliances for
your becoming an earnest Christian are at
your hand, and there is a straight path
for you into the broad daylight of God's
forgiveness. You may this moment be
the bondmen of the world, and the next
moment you may be princes of the Lord
God Almighty. You remember what ex-
citement there was in this country, years
ago, when the Prince of Wales came hero
—how the people rushed out by hundreds
of thousands to see him. Why? Becausc
they expected that some day he would sit
upon the throne of England. But what
was all that honor compared with the
honor to which God calls you—to be sons
and daughters of the Lord Almighty—vea,
to be queens and kings unto God. ‘‘They
shall reign with him forever and forever.’’
But you need to be aggressive Chris-
tians, and not like those persons who spend
their lives in hugging their Christian
graces and wondering why they do not
make progress. How much robustness of
health would a man have if he hid him-
self in a dark closet? - A great deal of the
piety of today is too exclusive. It hides
itself. It needs more fresh air, more out-
door exercise. There are many Christians
who are giving their entire life to self ex-
amination. They are feeling their pulses
. to see what is the condition of their spirit-
ual health. How long would a man have
robust physical health if he kept all the
day feeling his pulse instead of going out
into active, earnest everyday work?
Strong Characters Needed.
Iwasonce amid the wonderful, bewitch-
ing cactus growths of North Carolina. 1
never was more bewildered with the beau-
ty of flowers, and yet when I would take
up one of these cactuses and pull the leaves
apart the beauty was all gone. You could
hardly tell that it had ever been a flower.
And there are a great many Christian peo-
ple in this day just pulling apart their
Christian experiences to see what there is
in them, and there is nothing left in them.
This style of self examination is a dam-
age instead of an advantage to their Chris-
tian character. I remember when I was a
boy I used to bave a small piece in the
garden that I called my own, and I plant-
ed corn there, and every few days I would
pull it up to see how fast it was growing.
Now, there are a great many Christian
people in this day whose self examination
merely amounts to the pulling up of that
which they only yesterday or the day be-
fore planted. Oh, my friends, if you want
to have a stalwart Christian character,
plant it right out of doors in the great field
of Christian usefulness, and though storms
may come upon it, and though the hot sun
of trial may try to consume it, it will
thrive until it becomes a great tree, in
which the fowls of heaven may have their
habitation. I have no patience with these
flowerpot Christians. They keep them-
selves under shelter, and all their Chris-
tian experience in a small, exclusive circle,
when they ought to plant it in the great
garden of the Lord, so that the whole at-
mosphere could be aromatic with their
Christian usefulness. What we want in
the church of God is more strength of
piety. The century plant is wonderfully
suggestive and wonderfully beautiful, but
I never look at it without thinking of its
parsimony. It lets whole generations go
by before it puts forth one blossom. So I
have really more admiration when I see
the dewy tears in the blue eyes of the vio-
lets, for they come every spring. My
Christian friends, time is going by so
rapidly that we cannot afford to be idle.
No Time For Inertia.
A recent statistician says that human
life now has an average of only 82 years.
From these 32 years you must subtract all
the time you take for sleep and the taking
of food and recreation; that will leave you
about 16 years. From these 16 you must
subtract all the time that you are neces-
sarily engaged in the earning of a liveli-
hood. That will leave you about eight
years. From these eight years you must
take all the days and weeks and months—
all the length of time that is passed in
sickness—leaving you about one year in
which to work for God. O my soul, wake
up! How darest thou sleep in harvest
time and with so few hours in which to
reap? So that I state it as a simple fact
that all the time that the vast majority of
you will have for the exclusive service of
God will be less than one year.
‘‘But,” says some man, “‘I liberally
support the gospel, and the church is open,
and the gospel is preached; all the spirit-
ual advantages are spread before men, and
if they want to be saved let them come
and be saved—I have discharged all my
responsibility.’’ Ah, is that my Master's
spirit? Isthere not an old book somewhere
that commands us to go out into the high-
ways and the hedges and compel the peo-
ple to come in? What would become of
you and me if Christ had not come down
off the hills of heaven, and if he had not
come through the door of the Bethlehem
caravansary, and if he had not with the
crushed hand of the crucifixion knocked
at the iron gate of the sepulcher of our
spiritual death, crying, ‘Lazarus, come
forth?’’ Oh, my Christian friend, this is
no time for inertia when all the forces of
darkness seem to be in full blast—when
steam printing presses are publishing in-
fidel tracts, when express trains are car-
rying messengers of sin, when fast clip-
pers are laden with opium and strong
drink, when the night air of our cities is
polluted with the laughter that breaks up
from the 10,000 saloons of dissipation and
abandonment, when the fires of the second
death already are kindled in the cheeks of
some who, only a little while ago, were
incorrupt! Oh, never since the curse fell
upon the earth has there been a time when
it was such an unwise, such a cruel, such
an awful thing for the church to sleep!
The great audiences are not gathered in
Christiaun churches. The great audiences
are gathered in temples of sin—tears of
unutterable woe their baptism, the blood
of crushed hearts the awful wine of their
sacrament, blasphemies their litany, and
the groans of the lost world the organ
dirge of their worship.
Get Out of Old Ruts.
Again, if you want to be qualified to
meet the duties which this age demands
of you, you must on the one hand avoid
reckless iconoclasm and on the other hand
not stick too much to things because they
are old. The air is full of new plans, new
projects, new theories of government, new
theologies, and I am amazed to see how so
many Christians want only novelty in or-
der to recommend a thing to their confi-
dence, and so they vacillate and swing to
and fro, and they are useless and they are
unhappy. New plans—secular, ethical,
philosophical, religious, cisatlantic, trans-
atlantic—long enough to make a line reach-
ing from the German universities to Great
Salt Lake city. Ah, my brother, do not
take hold of a thing merely because it is
new! Try it by the realities of the judg-
ment day. But, on the other hand, do not
adhere to anything merely because it is
old.
There is not a single enterprise of the
church or the wotld but has some time been
scoffed at. There was a time when men
derided even Bible societies, and when a
few young men met in Massachusetts and
organized the first missionary society ever
organized in this country there went
laughter and ridicule all around the Chris-
tian church. They said the undertaking
was preposterous. And so also the work
of Jesus Christ was assailed. People cried
out: ‘‘Who ever heard of such theories of
ethics and government! Who ever noticed
such a style of preaching as Jesus has?’
Ezekiel had talked of mysterious wings
and wheels. Here came a man from Caper-
naum and Gennesaret, and he drew Lis
illustrations from the lakes, from the
sand, from the mountain, from the lilies,
from the cornstalks. How the Pharisees
scoffed! How Herod derided! And this
Jesus they plucked by the beard, and they
spat in his face, and they called him ‘this
fellow.’’ All the great enterprises in and
out of the church have at times been
scoffed at, and there have been a great
multitude who have thought that the
chariot of God’s truth would fall to pieces
if it once got out of the old rut. And so
there are those who have no patience with
anything like improvement in church
architecture, or with anything like good,
hearty, earnest church singing, and they
deride any form of religious discussion
which goes down walking among everyday
men rather than that which makes an ex-
cursion on rhetorical stilts. Oh, that the
church of God would wake up to an adap-
tability of work! We must admit the sim-
ple fact that the churches of Jesus Christ
in this day do not reach the great masses.
There are 50,000 people in Edinburgh who
never hear the gospel. There are 1,000,000
people in London who never hear the gos-
pel. The great majority of the inhabitants
of this capital come not under the imme-
diate ministrations of Christ’s truth, and
the church of God in this day, instead of
being a place full of living epistles, known
and read of all men, is more like a dead
letter postoffice.
Work to Be Done.
‘‘But,”’ say the people, ‘‘tho world is go-
ing to be converted; you must be patient;
the kingdoms of this world are to become
the kindoms of Christ.’’ Never, unless the
church of Jesus Christ puts on more speed
and energy. Instead of the church con-
verting the world, the world is converting
the church. Here is a great fortress. How
shall it be taken? An army comes and sits
around about it, cuts off the supplies and
says, ‘‘Now we will just wait until from
exhaustion and starvation they will have
to give up.’”’ Weeks and months and per-
haps a year pass along and finally tho for-
tress surrenders through that starvation
and exhaustion. But, my friends, the for-
tresses of sin are never to be taken in that
way. If they are taken for God, it will be
by storm; you will have to bring up the
great siege guns of the gospel to the very
wall and wheel the flying artillery into
line, and when the armed infantry of heav-
en shall confront the battlements you will
have to give the quick command, * For
ward! Charge!”
Ah, my friends, there is work for you to
do and for me to do in order to this grand
accomplishment. I havea pulpit. I preach
in it. Your pupit is the bank. Your pul-
pit is the store. Your pulpit is the edito-
rial chair. Your pulpit is the anvil. Your
pulpit is the house scaffolding. Your pul-
pit is the mechanics’ shop. I may stand in
my place and, through cowardice or
through self seeking, may keep back the
word I ought to utter, while you, with
sleeve rolled up and brow besweated with
toil, may utter the word that will jar the
foundations of heaven with the shout of a
great victory. Oh, that we might all feel
that the Lord Almighty is putting upon us
the hands of ordination! I tell you, every
one, go forth and preach this gospel. You
have as much right to preach as I have or
any man living.
Examples of Courage.
Hedley Vicars was a wicked man in the
English army. The grace of God came to
him. He became an earnest and eminent
Christian. They scoffed at him and said:
“You are a hypocrite. You are as bad as
ever you were.’’ Still he kept his faith in
Christ, and after awhile, finding that they
could not turn him aside by calling him
a hypocrite, they said to him, *‘Oh, you
are nothing but a Methodist!’ This did
not disturb him. He went on performing
his Christian duty until he had formed
all his troops into a Bible class, and the
whole encampment was shaken with the
presence of God. So Havelock went into
the heathen temple in India while the
English army was there and put a candle
Into the hand of each of the heathen gods
that stood around in the heathen temple,
and by the light of those candles held up
by the idols General Havelock preached
righteousness, temperance and judgment
to cone. And who will say on earth or in
heagen that Havelock had not the right to
preach? In the minister’s house where I
prepared for college there worked a man
by the name of Peter Croy. He could
neither read nor write, but he was a man
of God. Often theologians would stop in
the house—grave theologians—and at fam-
ily prayer Peter Croy would be called upon
to lead, and all those wise men sat around,
wonder struck at his religious efficiency.
When he prayed, he reached up and seemed
to take hold of the very throne of the Al-
mighty, and he talked with God until the
very heavens were bowed down into the
sitting room. Oh, if I were dying I would
rather have plain Peter Croy kneel by my
bedside and commend my immortal spirit
to God than the greatest archbishop ar-
rayed in costly canonicals. Go preach this
gospel. You say you are not licensed. In
the name of the Lord Almighty, I license
you. Go preach this gospel, preach it in
the Sabbath schools, in the prayer meet-
ings, in the highways, in the hedges. Woe
be unto you if you preach it not!
Triumph of Truth.
I remark again, that in order to be quali-
fled to mest your duty in this particular
age you want unbounded faith in the tri-
umph of the truth and the overthrow of
wickedness. How dare the Christian
church ever get discouraged? Have we
not the Lord Almighty on our side? How
long did it take God to slay the hosts of
Sennacherib or burn Sodom or shake down
Jericho? How long will it take God, when
he once arises in his strength, to overthrow
all the forces of iniquity? Between this
time and that there may be long seasons of
darkness, and the chariot wheels of God's
gospel may seem to drag heavily, but here
is the promise and yonder is the throne,
and when omniscience has lost its eyesight
and omnipotence falls back impotent and
Jehovah is driven from his throne, then
the church of Jesus Christ can afford to be
despondent, but never until then.
Despots may plan and armies may march
and the congresses of the nations may
seem to think they are adjusting all the
affairs of the world, hut the mighty men
of the earth are only the dust of the chariot
wheels of God’s providence. And I think
before the sun of the next century shall set
the last tyranny will fall, and with a
splendor of de nonstration that shall be the
astonishment of the universe God will set
forth the brightness and pomp and glory
and perpetuity of his eternal government.
Out of the starry flags and the emblazoned
insignia of this world God will make a
path for his own triumph and returning
from universal conquest he will sit down,
the grandest, the strongest, highest throne
of earth his footstool.
I prepare this sermon because I want
to encourage all Christian workers in ev-
ery possible department. Hosts of the liv-
ing God, march on, march on! His spirit
will bless you. His shield will defend you.
His sword will strike for you. March on,
march on! The despotisms will fail and pa-
ganism will burn its idols and Mohamine-
danism will give up its false prophet and
the great walls of superstition will come
down in thunder and wreck at tho long,
loud blast of the gospel trumpet. March
on, march on! The besiegement will soon
be ended. Only a few more steps on the
long way; only a few more sturdy blows;
only a few more battlecries; then God
will put the laurels upon your brow, and
from the living fountains of heaven will
bathe off the sweat and the heat and the
dust of the conflict. March on, march on!
For you the time for work will soon be
passed, and amid the outflashings of the
judgment throne and the trumpeting of
resurrection angels and the upheaving of a
world of graves and the hosanna and the
groaning of the saved and the lost we
shall be rewarded for our faithfulness or
punished for our stupidity. Blessed be the
Lord God of Israel from everlasting to
everlasting and let the whole earth be fill-
ed with his glory. Amen and amen.
A Banquet at Siwa.
There were several round tables placed
down the middle of the room. Candles
burned in candlesticks, all of which had
been imported from Cairo at a fabulous
cost. Lamps of olive oil were also about
the room. The food was more than abun-
dant. A whole sheep stuffed with rice,
raisins and pistachio nuts, soup, chicken,
vegetables, succeeded each other. Then
came trays of delicious fruit—the trays
made of woven date fiber, the fruit, deli-
cious black grapes, figs, a small variety of
watermelon, sweet lemons, pomegranates
and mandarins. Our host did not sit down,
but directed the servants, who were most
likely slaves. There is still some traffic in
slaves from Kura, the price of one of these
being a small roll of blue and black cloth,
such as the natives wear. I fancy most of
the Siwans’ dislike of admitting Chris-
tians to their town is the dread that their
slave trade will be interfered with. There
was no conversation during the meal; for
any one to talk would have meant a disre-
gard for the other more important func-
tion of eating.
After a long dinner we rose and washed
our hands in brass basins, with water
- poured out of ewers. Then all sat on the
divans round the room. A servant then
walked round, showering rosewater over
us so liberally that another had to follow
with a towel and wipe us dry, and while
he did this a third stifled us with incense.
This unpleasant ceremony cost our Kost a
large sum, for rosewater imported from
Egypt becomes of fabulous value and the
servants were unpleasantly liberal in dis-
pensing it.—Geographical Journal.
English Soldiers.
Protestant clergymen are popularly sup-
posed to be the best male ‘‘lives’’ going.
But they die at a rate of nearly 11 per
thousand each year, while the British
army shuffles off this mortal coil at a rate
of less than 5 per thousand. Even la-
dies’ maids, who have usually a life of
great comfort and little work, die faster
than this, departing this life at the rate of
8 per thousand.
It might well be supposed that the troops
who do as much fighting as the British
soldiers abroad would be carried off in
large numbers. This was true in the past,
when the conditions favored disease, but
in these days war is by no means as dan-
gerous. For instance, in all our wars of
the past 20 years the death rate on the
battlefield has been only 15 per thousand
per annum.
Now solicitors cannot be said to be en-
gaged in very risky work, yet they depart
hence at the rate of 16 per thousand per
annum. Roman Catholic priests die at
the rate of 18 per thousand and cabmen
at the rate of 26 per thousand. Your
chances of death, then, if you become a
cabman are five times as great as if you
join the army at home and nearly twice
as great as if you form part of the fighting
forces in India or Africa. And theve are
scores of trades—such as lead working,
glass blowing, match making, public
house keeping, etoc.—ever so much more
dangerous to life than cab driving.—Lon-
don Mail.

Pigmies in South America.
A Traveler Says He Saw Them on the Rio Negro,
Eben J. Sullivan, of Boston, who has
been in South America, has returned and
reports seeing a curious race of pigmies.
“I will ask you to excuse the limited in-
formation I poasess on the subject of pigmy
races,’”’ said Mr. Sullivan to Mr. R. G.
Halliburton, of Boston, fellow of the Royal
Geographical society, ‘for my trip to
South America was not for scientific pur-
poses, but purely commercial. I met,
while on the Rio Negro, one of the tributa-
ries of the Amazon, a race of remarkably
small people, who are more likely of In-
dian than of negro origin.
“They are very ugly in shape ; the stom-
ach is distended out of all proportion to
their tiny, spindling arms and legs. I
think this is caused by their anaconda-like
practice of gorging. I think that they
may number 10,000 or 15,000 souls.
‘“These people are not over 4 feet 8 inch-
es in height, and the women are less than
this. Clothing is worn only by adults and
consists merely of a cloth over the loins.
Their hair is done up and stuck together
by mud in a most repulsive fashion. They
have tribal marks that cover the upper body
and head made by slits in the skin. They
are peaceably disposed and afraid of the
white man.”’
——A newspaper woman in Washington
called on Mrs. John Sherman the other
day says the New York 7ribune, to get
some information, but found that she was
not at home. ‘‘Well, hasn’t she a secre-
tary who can tell me about it?’ said the
newspapar woman. ‘‘Certainly, madam,’
answered the man servant; this way,
please.”” And leading the way along the
hall he threw open a door and ushered her
into the presence of the Secretary of State.
The secretary laughed heartily when the
quick-witted newspaper woman explained
the situation, and acted as his wife’s pri-
vate secretary long enough to give the in-
formation that was desired.

THE WHOLE STORY AS TOLD BY HIS

“When my little boy was six years old he had
an attack of the measles, and after recovering he
was restless at night, had no appetite, and was
cross and fretful. Later on large blotches and
sores broke out on his face and limbs. We were
told they would heal in a few days; but these few
days grew into months. One day my husband,
who is a well-known railroad man, was advised
by some of his fellow workmen to give the boy
Hood's Sarsaparilla. We concluded to do so,
and after he had taken the first bottle we noticed
some improvement. We kept on giving him this
medicine until he had taken three bottles, when
he was completely cured, and he has been well
ever since.” Mgrs. E. J. MiLLER, Bennett, Pa.
“We have taken Hood's Sarsaparilla in our
family for loss of appetite and to keep our blood
in good condition, and we always find it the best
medicine we zan obtain for this purpose.” Daisy
