Draws Helpful Leasons from the Ex- periences and Viclssitudes of LifeMemories of Home, Copyright, 1599, by Louls Klopsch. Wash ington, May 7 This sermon of Dr. Talmage calls the roll of many stirring memories and in terprets the meaning of life's tudes. The text is Psalms “While I was musing the fire burned.” Here is David, the psalmist, with the ViCissi AXXIX, forefinger of his right hand against his shut against the And esame temple and the door world engaged in contemplation. to ts t} ne it would be well for us posture often while we » sweet solitude to contemp In a small island off t} Beotia | Pp once d as stead of that i reminiscence.

The year was one round of frolie snd mirth. Your greatest trouble was an April shower, more sunshine than shower. The heart had not been ran- sacked by trouble, nor had sickness broken it, and no lamb had a warmer sheepfold than the home in which your ghildhood nestled. Perhaps you were brought up in the country. You stand now to-day in mem- ory under the old tree. You clubbed it for fruit that was not quite ripe, be- eruse you couldn't walt any longer. You hear the brook rumbling along over the pebbles. You step again into the furrow where your father in his shirt sleeves shouted to the lazy oxen. You frighten the swallows from the raft. ers of the barn and take just one egg and silence your conselence by saying they will not miss it.

Yet when persons have consumption they loathe fatty foods, yet fat is noc - sary for their recovery and they cannot take plain cod liver oil. The plain oil dis- turbs the stomach and takes away the appetite. The dis- agreeable fishy odor and taste make it almost unen- durable. What isto be done? This question was ans- wered when we first made SCOTT'S EMULSION of Cod-Liver Oil with Hypo- phosphites. Although that was nearly twenty-five years ago, yet it stands alone to- day the one great remedy for all affections of the throat and lungs.
