The Wonders of the Haman Hand—Oer Physieal Structure Proof of Divine WisdomThe Extended Hand the Symbol of Infinite Meroy, Subject: (Copyright, Louis Klopsch, 1900.) Wasminarox, D. C.—The discourses of Dr. Talmage is a lesson of gratitude for that which none of us fully appreciate and shows the Divine meaning in our physical structure; text, I Corinthians xti,, 21, “The eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no nead of thee.” These wotds suggest that some time two very important parts of the human body got {nto controversy, and the eye became nso. lent and full of braggadoecio and said: “I tem. How far] ean see, taking in spring Comparad with myself what an insignificant thing is the human hand! I look down upon it, There it hangs, swinging at the side, a clump of muscles and nerves, and it can- not see an inch either way, It has no lus- ter compared with that whieh I beam forth.” “What senseless talk,” responds the hand. “You, the aye, wouid have been put ont long ago but for me. Without the food I have earned you would have been glghtioss and starved to death years ago. You cannot do without me any beiter than I ean do without you.” At this part of the Yisputation Paul of my text breaks in and ends the eontroversy by deciaring, “The eye cannot say unto the hand, I bave no nead of thee.” Fourteen red and thirty-three times, as nearly as I can eouut by ai i of concordance, does the Bible speak of the human hand, We are ail familiar with the hand, but the man bas yet to bs bora who ean fully understand this wondrousinstru. ment. Sir Charles Bell, the Eopglish sur goon, came home from the battlefield of Waterloo, where he bad been ampuinst limbs and binding up t hun gunshot fraciures and wrote a book entitied “The Hand: Its Mechanism and Vital Endowments as Evi dencing Design.” But it is se profound a book that only a selentist whe Is familiar with the technicalities of apatomy and physiology can understand it. So we are all going on opening and shut ting this divinely constructed instrument, the hand, ignorant of much of the reveia- tion it was intended to make of the wis. dom and goodness of God. You can see vy their structure that shoulder and elbow and forearm are getting ready for the cul- mination in the hand, Theres is youn wrist, with its eight bones and their liga ments in two rows. That wrist, with its bands of fibres and its hinged joint and tarping on two axes-—-on the larger axis moving backward and forward and on the smaller axis turning neariy around. And there is the palm of your hand with its ed, 1 having a shalt and There th that hand, with fourtean Iv ger with gurionsly wrought five of the bofies with ending rou for the lodgment of the nails the thum! ing from tion to meel t fingers, incetion the five terminations, are each tendons, ened i# res its opposite go that in con- ] pay clasp and hold fast that which yu desire take, There the running from armpit 10 forty-six so that all are under mastery.

God evi. dently intendad all the lower order of liv. ing beings suould have weapons of delanse, and hence the slephant’s tusk, and the horse's hoof, and the cow's horn, and the lion's tooth, aad the inseot’s sting, Having given weapons of defense to tha lower orders of living beings, of course He would not leave man, the highest order of living beings on earth, defenseless and at the merey of brutal or rmafflan attack. The right —yea, the duty-~of sell defense is so evident it needs no argumentation. The band is the Divinely fashioned weapon of defense, Wa may seldom bave to use it for such purposes, but the fact that we are equipped insures safety. Tbe hand is a or tended I weapon sooner loaded than any gun, sooner drawn than any sword, Its fingers bent into the palm, It becomes a olf demolition. What a defense it is against accident! There have been times in all our experi- ences when we have with the hand warded off something that would have extinguished our eyesight or broken the skull or erippled us for a lifetime. While the aye has dis- sovered the approaching peril the hand has beaten it back or struck it down or disarmed it, ivery day thank God for your right hand, and if you want to hear ita eulogy ask bin who in swilt revolution of machinery has had it erashed or at Chapultepec or South Mountain or San Juan Hill or Bedan lost it. And in passing let me say that he who has the weapon of the hand uninjured and in full use needs no other. You cowards who walk with sword cane or carry a pls- tol in your bip pocket had better lay aside your deadly weapon. At the frontier or in barbarous lands or as an officer of the law about to make an arrest such arming may be necessary, but no citizen moving in these civilized regions neods such reis- forcement. If you are afraid to go down these steeets or along these country roads © Sot bot without dagger or firearms, botter ask your grandmother to go with yon armed with scissors and knitting needle. What in our two hands God gave us all the weapons wo need to carry. Again, the band is the chief executive of. floer of the soul for affording help. Just gee how that hand is constructed! How easily you can lower it to raise the falion! Flow easily it is extended to feel the in. valid’s pi Lor gently wipe away the tear of orphanage, or contribute aims, or smooth the excited brow, or beckon into safety! Ob, the helping hands!

Prescott, apd yet his band may write the enchanticg “Conquest of Peru.” Or the ear may be silenced forever, as In the case of Beethoven, and yet his hand may put into immortal cadences the “Ninth Symphony.” Ob, the hand! The God fashioned hand! The triumphant hand! It is an open Bible of Divine revelation, and the five fingers are the Isaiah and the Eze. kisl and the David and the Micah and the Paul of that almighty inapiration. A pastor in his sermon told how a mtie obild appreciated the value of his hand when he was told that on the morrow it must bs amputated in order to save his life, Hearing that, he went fo a quiet piace and prayed that God would spare his hand. The surgeon, coming the next day to do bis work, found the hand so much better that amputation was post. poned, and the hand got well, The pastor, telling of this in a sermon, concluded by holding up bis hand and saying, ‘That is the very hand that was spared in ane swer to prayer, and I hold it up, a monu- ment of Divine meray,” Again, the hand (n the enief axeentive of- ficer of the soul when wrung in agony. Tears of relief are sometimes denied to trouble, The eyelids at such time are as hot and parched and burning as the brow, At such time even the voice is suppressed, and thers is no sob or outery. hen the wringing of the hand tells the story. At the close of a lita wasted in sin somelimes comes that expression of the twisted fingers—the memory of years that will never return, of opportunities the like of which will never again occur, and con pelonoe in its wrath pouncing upon the soul, and all the past a horror, only to be surpassed by the approaching horror, 80 a man wrings his hands over the casket of a dead wife whom he has cruelly treated, So a man wrings his handa at the fate of rons and daughters whose prospects have been ruined by bis inebriety and neglect and depravity. fo the sinner wrings his bands when, after a life full of offers of pardon and os and heaven, he dies without hope. When there are sorrows too poignant for lamentation on the lip and too hot for the tear glands to write in let ters of erystal on the cheek, the hand re. cites the tragedy with mores emphasis than anything in *““‘Maobeth” and “King Lear.” ut it is not always in such sind Ing that we can employ our right hand.
