SEKMONS OF THE DAY. RELIGIOUS TOPICS DISCUSSED BY PROMINENT AMERICAN MINISTERS. The ROT. George H. Hepworth'S Sunday Discourse In the New York Herald Is Entitled "Heresy "—Dr. T. DeWitt Tal raage Preaches on the Evil of Gambling TEXT: "My heart shall not reproach mo so long as I live."—Job, xxvii., 6. It is very important that your heart or conscience shall not accuse you. Your happiness does not depend on anybody else's conscience or heart, but on yourown. God gave you a conscience, with the com mand that you should follow Its behests, and when you get into the other world that conscience will be your judge. In other words, God will not judge you, but you will judge yourself. It is your conscience that makes you an individual, which spiritually isolates you; and its approval is worth more than the approval of all the world beside. You can not go fnr wrong if you always do what you think is right. You may ask advice, but you should decide for yourself what it is best to do, and then do it, whether people blame or praise. If every one were to fol low this rule we should have a large differ ence of opinion among men, but above it a divine harmony of purpose. When the millennium comes we shall not all think alike, neither shall we allow any one to do our thinking for us, but we shall think for ourselves until thinking changes to con viction. Then we shall follow our convio tions as we follow the flag of our country, and hold to them and be true to them, and «o win the smile of God. What you need most of all is to bo your best, truest and noblest self. For tnat end you came into tho world, and unless you accomplish that end your life will be essentially a failure and the requirements of the Almighty will stand negleoted. Men may call you heretical, but what men say of you is of no importance in com parison with what God will say. Your business is to be on His side, and to bo sure in you. heart that He is on your side. If, after that, people agree with you, you may well rejoice, but if they do not, that is their affair and not yours. Yctur duty is what you think your duty is after the enlighten ment or illumination which always comes to him who is in accord with tho Holy Spirit of tho universe, and thus breathes the atmosphere of the spiritual life. To that duty you should never be falso, for it is what makes you n living soul, what forges nobility of character, what opens the door of communication with tho other world, what gives you a claim to the as sistance of the angels and assures you of the helping baud of the Most High. Not ha is religious, in any wide souse, who is merely the shadow of some one else's mind, but he who casts his own shadow, because he is a solid substance on which the sun shines. This is a very queer world In ono respect. We like to be sheop and follow a bell wether. Even in matters ot dress wo must needs be told what to wear, and whether it is comely or uncomely we wear it. In the matter of religion there is as much fashion as there is in dress. What the majority be lieve we try to believe, because it issoeasy togo with the majority. If ft does not commend itself to our judgment we secret ly dissent, but openly approve. This in troduces an element of hypocrisy into the Holy of Holies, demoralizes mind and heart, forces from us our self-respect, aud de prives us of heavenly recognition and ap proval. Our vital energy is sapped, our manliness and womanliness aro injured, un less wo can say of an opinion, I made it my self, and it is therefore mine. In this matter of belief, of religious be lief, you are to search for tho truth—Hod's truth, Christ's truth, eternal truth. You are to dive iuto tho depths of your soul, and what you bring therefrom Is to be tho foundation on which to build your life and character. The world may say nay or it may say yea, it makes no difference; you ure to bo governed solely by God's.yea and nay as the words are whispered in your ear by Him who reveals Himself to every man, during every day aud hour of his llfo. You may not get at tho whole truth—eternity must unfold itself before you can know that; but you will get at that much of truth as will serve your purpose, be it great or small. Men may tell you te believo this or that —it is nothing. You mnv believe as others do, or you may not; but if you believe what God shall teach you when you and He are together in the "sad and glad ex periences which will fall to your lot. then your days will be radiant and you will be ut peace. The onlv real heresy is the heresy of an evil life. Honest belief is never heresy, but dishonest living is always heresy. To be false to a high ideal, to grovefwhen you ought to soar, to be entangled in tho delusive ambitions of this world when you ought to keep your soul bright and clear and pure, to unmake yourself by immor alities when you should bo building for eternity, to bo mean when you should bo great —these constitute a heresy which is abhorred in heaven. He who lives nobly is no heretic, whether his creed be long or short. He who lives on a low moral level is the true heretic, though his creed be a furlong in length. I say, therefore, bo yourself, and mnke yourself all you ure capable of becoming. Hign living alono is orthodox, nnd high living is the result of pure feeling und lofty thinking. If your conscience tells you you are right you have nothing to fear, either here or hereafter. GEOBOE H. HErwoitTU. DR TALMACE'S SERMON. The Downward Path of tho Gamester Serves as a Subject. TEXT—"Aceldama, that Is to say, the field •112 blood."—Acts 1., 19. The money that Judas gave for surren dering Christ was used to purchase a graveyard. As tho money was blood money, tho ground bought by it was called In the Syriac tongue, "Aceldama," meaning "the field of blood." Weil, ttere is one word I want to write to-day over every raceoourse where wagers are staked, aud every pool reom and every gambling saloon and every table, public or private, where men and women bet for sums of money, large or small, and thof is a word incardinedwith the life of innumerable victims—Aceldama. The gambling spirit, which is at all times ■ stupendous evil, over aud anon sweeps over the country like an epidemic, prostra ting uncounted thousands. There has never been a worse attack than that from which all the villages and towns and cities are now suffering. Some years ago, when an association for the suppression of gambling was organ ized, an agent of the association came to a prominent citizen and asked him to patron ize the society. He said: "No; I can have no interest in such an organization. I am in no wise affected by the evil." At that very time his son, who was his partner in business, was one of the heaviest players in a famous gambling establishment. Another refused his patronage on the same ground, not knowing that his first bookkeeper was losing from *SO to *IOO a night. Directly or indirectly this evil strikes at the whole world. Gambling is the risking of something more or less valuable in the hope of win ning more than you hazard. The instru ments of gambling may differ but the prlnciplo is the same. The shuffling and dealing of cards, however fun G f tempta tion, is not gambling unless stakes are put up; while, on the other hand, aamblin? may be carried on without card* or dice or a tenpin alley. 'r be mR n Who bets on horses, or election* on hat. ties, the man who deals in "fanov" stocks or »°»?uots a business which hazn r(lK ' capital, o r goes into transaction; n n «i ? n but dependent upon wnal mei . call "luok," is a gimb)er. meu Whatever you expect to get from your neighbor without offering an equivalent la money, or time, or skill. Is either the pro duct of theft or gaming. Lottery tickets and lottery policies come into the same category. Bazars for the founding of hos pitals, schools and churches, conducted on the raffling system, come under the same denomination. Do not, therefore, associate gambling necessurily with any instrument, or game, or time or place, or think the principle depends upon whether you pay for a glass of wine or one hundred shares of railroad stock. Whether you patronize "auction pools," "French mu tuals," or "book-making," whether you employ faro or billiards, rondo and keno, cards or bagatelle, the very idea of the thing is dishonest; for it professes to be stow upon you a good for which you give no equivalent. Men wishing to gamble will find places just suited to their copacity, not only In the underground oyster-cellar or at the table back of the ourtain, covered with greasy cards, or in the steamboat smoking cabin, where the bloated wretch with rings in his ears deals out his pack, and winks in the unsuspecting traveler—providing free drinks all around—but In gilded par lors and amid gorgeous surroundings. This sin works ruin, first, by providing an unhealthy stimulant. Excitement is pleas urable. Under every sky and in every age men have sought it. We must at times have excitement. A thousand volcos in our nature demand it. It is right; it is hcathful; It is inspiring; it is a desire God glven. A young man having suddenly inherited a large property, sits at the hazard tables, and takes up in a dice-box the estate won by a father's lifetime sweat, and shakes it and tosses it away. Intemperance soon stigmatizes its victim, kicking him out, a slavering fool, into tho ditch, or sending him,with the drunkard's hiccough, stagger ing up the street, where his family lives. But gambling does not in that way exposo its victims. The gambler may be eaten up by the gambler's passion, yet you only dis cover it by the greed in his eyes, the hard ness of his features, the nervous restless ness, the threadbare coat, and his embar rassed business. The infernal spell is on him; a giant is aroused within; and though you bind him with cables, they would part like thread, and though you fasten him seven times around with chains, they would snap like rusted wire; and though you piled up in his path heaven-high Bibles, tracts and ser mons, and on the top should set the cross of the Son of God, over them all the gamb ler would leap like a roe over the rocks, on his way to perdition. "Aceldama, tho Held of blood!" Notice, also, the effect of this crime upon domestic happiness. It has sent its ruth less ploughshares through hundreds of families, until the wife sat in rags and the sons grew up to the same infamous prac tices, or took a short cut to destruction across the murderer's scaffold. Home has lost all charms for the gambler. How tame are tho children's corossos and a wife's de votion to the gambler! How droarily tho lire burns on the domestic hearth! There must be louder laughter, and something to win aud something to lose; nu excitement to drive the heart faster, fillip the blood and lire the imagination. No home, how ever bright, can keep back tho gamester. The sweet call of love bounds back from his iron soul, and all endearments are con sumed in the lire of his passion. The family Bible will go nfter all other treas ures are lost, and if his orown in heaven were put into his hands he would cry: "Here goes; one moro game, my boys. On this one throw 1 stake my crown of heaven." Tho Church of God has not seemed will ing to allow the world to have all the ad vantage of these games of chanoo. A church bazaar opens, and toward tho close it isfound that some of tho moro valuable articles are unsalable. Forthwith the con ductors of the enterprise conclude that they will raffle for soine of tho valuable articles, and, under pretense of anxiety to make their iniuister a present or pleaso some popular member of the church, fasci nating persons are dispatched through tho room, pencil in hand, to "solicit shares," or perhaps each draws for his own advant age, and scores of people go home with their trophies, thinking that it is all right, for Christian women did tho embroidery and Christian men did the raffling, and tho proceeds went toward a new communion set. But you may depend on it that as far as morality is concerned, you might as well have won by the crack of the billiard ball or the turn of tho dice box. I)o you wonder that churches are built, lighted, or upholstered by such processes as that come to great llnancial andspirltuul decrepitude? All this I stylo ecclesiastical gambling. More than one man who Is dostroyed can say that his first stop on tho wrong road was when he won something at a church fair. Shall I sketch tho history of the gambler? Lured by bad company, ho finds his way into a place where honest men ought never to go. He sits down to his first game, but only for pastime and the deslro of being thought sociable. The players deal out the cards. They unconsciously play into satan's hands, who takes all the trie Us and both the players' souls for trumps—ho being a sharper at auy game. A slight stake is put up, just to add inter est to tho play. Game after game is played. Larger stakes and still larger. They begin to move nervously on their chairs. Their brows lower, and eyes flash, until now they who win and they who lose, fired alike with passion, sit with set jaws, and compressed lips, and clenched fists, and eyes like fireballs that seem starting from their sockets, to see the final turn before it comes; if losing, pale with envy and tremulous witli unutterod oaths cast back red-hot upon the heart—or wlnniug —with hysteric laugh—"Ha! ha! Ihaveltl" A few years have pnssod, oud he is only tho wreck of a man. Sentlng himself at the game, ere he throws the first curd, he stakos the last relic of his wife—the mar riage ring which sealed the solemn vows between them. The game is lo3t, and, stag gering back in exhaustion, he dreams. Tho bright hours of the past mock his agony, und in his dreams fiends with eyes of Are aud tongues of llames circle about him with joined hands, to dance and sing their orgies with hellish chorus, chautlng: "Hail, brothor!" kissing his clammy fore head until their loathsome locks, flowing with serpents, crawled into ids bosom, and sink their sharp fangs and suck up his life's blood, nud, coiling around his head, pinch it with chills and shudders unutter able. Tuke warning! You are no stronger than tens of thousands who have by this prac tice been overthrown. No young man in our cities can escape being tempted. Be ware of the ilrst beginnings! This road is a down grade and every Instant increases tho momentum. Launch not upon this treacherous set. Split huiksstrew the beach. Everlasting storms howl up and down, tossing unwary craft into the Hell-gate. I speak of what I have seen with my own eyes. To a gambler's death-bed there comes no hope. He will probably die alone. His former associates come not nigh his dwelling. When the hour comes, his miserable soul w+ll go out of a miserable llfo into a miserable eternity. As his poor remains pass the house where he was ruined, old companions may look out for a moment and say: "There goes tii"> old carcass—dead at last;" but they will not get up from the table. Let him down now iuto his grave. Plant no tree to cast its shade there, for the long, deep, eternal gloom that settles there is shadow enough. Plant no "forget-me-nots" or eglantines around the spot, for flowers wore not made to grow on such a blasted heath. Visit it not in tho sunshine, for that would be mockery, but In the dismal night, when no stars were out, and tho spirit of darkness comes down, horsed on the wind, then visit the grave of the gambler. The Boston Mechanics' Fair is announced for inn month beginning on October 10. The hall will be open for the reception of exhibits four weeks prior to that date. A TEMPERANCE COLUMN. THE DRINK EVIL MADE MANIFEST IN MANY WAYS. A Barrel of Whisky—Alcohol a Potent Poison—When the People Understand '.lts True Nature a Tremendous Crusade Will Be Waged Against the ltuin Power A drayman rolled forth from his cart in the street, A red-headed barrel, well bound and com plete; And on it red letters, like forked tongues of flame. Emblazoned the grade, number, quality, fame, Of this world renowned whisky from some body's still, Who arrested the grain on the way to the mill. So there stood the barrel, deliverod, but I Could see that a shadow was hovering nigh— A sulphurous shadow that grew as I gazed, To 'je form of Mephlsto. Though sorely amazed, X .entured to question this imp of the realm Where Vioe is tho pilot, with Crime at the helm, And asked him politely his mission to name, And if he was licensed to retail the same Identical barrel of whisky which he Was fondly surveying with demoniac glee. "O, I never handle the stuff," he replied; "Mv partners mortal are trusty and tried; Mayhap, peradventure, you might wish to look At the invoice complete; I will read from this book. You will find that this barrel contains something more Than forty-two gallons of whisky galore." And ere I could slip but another word i n, He checked it off gayly—his cargo of sin: "A barrel of headaches, of heartaches, of woes; A barrel of tears from a world-weary wife; A barrel of eurses, a barrel of blows; A barrel of sorrow, a barrel of strife; A barrel'of all-unavailing regret; A barrel of cares and a barrel of debt; A barrel of crime and a barrel of pain; A barrel of hopes ever blasted and vain; A barrel of falsehood, a barrel of cries That fall from the maniac's lips as he dies: A barrel of poison (of this nearly full), A barrel of poverty, ruin and blight; A. barrel of terrors that grow with the night; A barrel of hunger, a barrel of groans; A barrel of orphans' most pitiful moans; A barrel of serpents that hiss as they pas? From tho bead on the liquor that glows In the glass! My barrel, my treasure, I bid then fare well; flow ye tho foul seed; I will reap it in hell,' Ural Nature of Alcohol. Alcoholic poison first affects tho lobes ol (he brain, and tho other nerve centres o) the cerebro-spina! system aro successful!} brought under the Influence of the poison, until, in the state commonly known as "dead drunk," the only ones that are not paralvzed are those known as the auto matic centres, which regulato and keep up breathing anil the circulation. Enough alcohol can be taken, however, to parii lyzo those, in which case the deep sleep of drunkenness a becomes stupor which passes into death. There is a parallel be tween apoplexy and intoxication. To be drunk is simply apoplectic. Such is tbfc action of alcohol upon the nervous system, and its action upon tho other parts of the body is no loss injurious. When an alcoholic drink is taken into the stomach, the alcohol Is rapidly ab sorbed through the coats of that organ, passes directly Into the circulation, and is carried with tho blood to every part of the system. That which goes to the brain pro duces successively the symptoms enu merated abovo; that carried to tho lungs begins to be expelled with the expired breath of these organs. Experiments have been tried in which wino was adminis tered in capsules, so that not one particle touched tlie interior of the mouth or throat; yet in two or throe minutes the odor of alcohol was noted on tho breath, showing that in that short time it had been absorbed, passed into tho blood, and was being expelled by the lungs. The blood loaded with alcohol, In pass ing through the liver, sets up an irritation which frequently causes au incurable dis ease to that very important organ—cirr hosis of the liver, better known as "hobnail liver." The kidneys are stimulated and Irritated, and long indulgence in the drinking habit leads to incurable diseases in them. The skin is also affected, and does its part in expelling the alcohol from the system. In point of fact all the excre tory organs set nt work as soon as the al cohol gets Into the system, In the endeavor to rid the body of flie poison. The liver, kidneys, lungs and skin are all over-stim ulated in this effort. We hope we may have made it clear In this brief statemeut of the action of alcohol that it is absolutely and entirely a poison. It isin no sense a food. It injures tho bruin, the nerves, over-excites tho heart. Irritate? the stomach, liver and kidneys; never does any good, but always harm. There Is a vast amount of ignorance among the people as to the real nature of alcohol. It Is the fewer number of our people, even at this date, who are con vinced that alcohol is a poison; and this ignornnce of the masses is one of the bul warks of the traffic. We need more educa tion, especially in the family, in the church, and in tho common school, ns to the real nature and effect of this potent poison. When the masses of the people understand Its true nature, a tremendous impulse will be given to the effort to pul verize the rum power.—Toledo Blade. The Temperance Soldier. What makes the soldier? someone asks Is he merely a lad taken out of the street! and decked out in a gaudy uniform, in whose hands a musket has* been placed; No, but he is a man generated by fiercei processes. The soldier spirit is worried into him by long marches, pressed intc him by long watches on the picket-line, soaked into him by the dews of the night, washed into him by the drenching rain, baked into him by the burning hospital fever, starved into him by theshort ration, blown into him by shot and shell, and thrust into him by the sabre slash and th# bayonet wound. Out of all this is born I the soldier. So In our temperanoe army. We love our work because we havo stood behind the ramparts and in the deadly breach, and have fought for our principles; because wo have endured labor and suf fered contumely, and welcomed sacrifice that our cause may triumph; and the re wards of moral victories make our hearts leap with greater joy than nny triumph on a field of glory, because victories over 1 the monster vice of Intemperance are a thousand-fold more vital to munkind.— Sacred Heart Review.

The law should require that every bot tle of liquor be labeled "Poison, for ex ternal use only." The social evil and the liquor traffic are twin devices of the devil to lure men and women to destruction. HELPS FOR HOUSEWIVES. What Goes With Bleats. Roast beef, grated horseradish; roast mutton, currant jelly; boiled mutton, caper sauce; roast pork, ap ple sauce; roast lamb, mint sauce; roast goose,apple sauce; roast turkey, oyster sauce; roast chicken, bread sauce; venison or wild duck, black currant jelly; compote of pigeons, mushroom sauce; broiled fresh mack erel, fennel sauce or sauce of stewed gooseberries; fresh salmon, shrimp sauce and cucumber. Perfume for Clothes. An excellent perfume for perfuming clothes that are packed away, and which will retain its properties for a long time, can be made in the follow ing way: Pound to a powder one ounce each of cloves, caraway seed, nutmeg, mace, cinnamon and Tonquin beans; also, as much orris root as will equal the weight of all the foregoing ingredients. All that is needed is to fill little bags of muslin with this mixture and lay them among the gar ments. Novel Way of Preserving Flowers. A novel woy of preserving flowers, leaves and vines has been discovered by some ingenious English girls. The specimens are carefully dried up to a certain point, and are then laid upon sheets of soft paper something like our blotting paper. This is moist ened, a sheet of waxed paper placed over it, then another sheet of soft pa per, a layer of leaves and flowers, a sheet of wax paper, and so on. The whole series is then placed under a board, on which is put a very heavy weight, or which is placed in a power ful press. The pressure crushes the flowers into the soft, wet paper, and as this dries it sets, fastening the specimen very securely. A New Artlele for the Kitchen. A new article of kitchen furniture that commends itself to every house keeper who realizes the saving of time and strength in having things "handy" is a combination flour chest and kitchen table. Tho bin holds sixty pounds of flour, has two meal or sugar bius, a bread board, a meat board, and two large drawers, one partitioned off for spices, etc. The itins swing on the lower brace, and open and shut without a particle of friction. They are made of wood, which, it is claimed, prevents the flour from sweating as it does in bins that are made of metal. It is a west ern uia:i who lias invented this boon to women, and a chorus of feminine thanks accouipnuied by good tiuancial returns will doubtless prove the suc cess of his invention. KggK Hard Roiled. The class received a valuable sug gestion when Miss Limerick said eggs should never be allowed to boil. The hardest boiled egg is just as digesti ble, she said, as the one that is cooked soft, provided it is properly prepared. Very frequently when eggs do not agree with a peraoti it is because they have been boiled. A poached egg should be broken into water that is at boiling point and then set back on the range where it will not boil agaiu. Eggs cooked in the shell are better when putin water that has been heat ed io 160 or 180 degrees, considerably less than boiling point, and kept at that heat until tliev are cooked suffi ciently. A hard-boiled egg usually requires an hour to cook it properly. The lesson was practical and thor oughly interesting. It was full of suggestions and hints that cannot but prove valuable to those who are re quired to prepare food for the sick room and there were a number of helpful points for the woman who cooks for well persous.—Buffalo Ex press. Recipes. Boiled Onions—Pour boiling water over them and remove the skins. Put onto cook in boiling salted water. If old or very strong, change the water several times. When tender drain and cover with milk. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for eight min utes longer, and then serve.

Pour into a jug and set this in a saucepan of warm water over the fire. Stir with a spoon while the mixture thick ens. Flavor with orange flower wa ter. Celery Vinegar—Celery vinegar is useful for flavoring, and may be made of pieces of celery covered with some pure cider vinegar, or the celery seeds may be used. If the celery seeds are to be used, cover one ounce of celery seed with one quart of pure cider vinegar, and let it Btand two weeks, shaking it every day. It will then be ready for use. French Sago Jelly—First wash three ounces of crushed sago in cold water and then boil it for two hours, stirring occasionally. AVheu the sago is quite dissolved, add the juice of a large lemon, and two and one-half ounces of lump sugar. Boil» all to gether while stirring for five minutes, and pour into a mold. Next day turn out and serve with whipped cream or custard. Stuffed Onions Boil eight large onions till tender, but not broken. Remove the centres. Chop them and two tablespoonfuls of ham and one hard-boiled egg. Add two tablespoon fuls of breadcrumbs, one-half tea spoonful of pepper, and one table spoonful of butter melted. Place in a bak<}dish. Add one cupful white iiar.ee, melt one tablespoonful of but ter, add six tablespooufuls of dried breadcrumbs and a little salt and pep per. Sprinkle this over the onions. Heat and brown in tk« oven. The Cause of Dyspepsia. From the Republican, Seranton, Penna. The primary cause of dyspepsia is lack of vitality; the absence of nerve force; the loss of the life-sustaining elements of the blood. No organ can properly perform its func tion when the source of nutriment falls. When the stomach is robbed of the nourish ment demanded by nature, assimilation ceases, unnatural gases are generated; the entire system responds to the discord. A practical illustration of the symptoms and torture of dyspepsia is furnished by the case of Joseph T. Vandyke, 440 Hickory St., Seranton, Fa. In telling his story, Mr. Vandyke says: "Five years ago I was afflicted with a trouble of the stomach, which was very aggravat lng. I had no appetite, Vy/riv could not enjoy myself at figT)\/\ any time, and especially was the trouble severe when I awoke in the morn- \ iKg. I did not know what Sir the ailment was, but it be- H J came steadily worse and I I was in constant misery. , / "I called in my family I physician, and he diag- 1 nosed the case as catarrh . t of the stomach. He pre scribed for me and I had his prescription filled. I In Mi»ery. took nearly nil of the medicine, but still the trouble became worse, and I felt that my aondition was hopeless. I tried several rejnedios recommended by my friends but without benefit. After I bud been suffering several months, Thomas Campbell, also 11 resident of this city, urged me to try Dr. Williams' Fink Pills for Pale People. "Ho finally persuaded me to buy a box and I began to use the pills according to directions. Before I had taken the second box I began to feel relieved, and after tak ing a few more boxes, I considered myself restored to health. The pills gave me new life, strength, ambition and happiness." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure dyspepsia by restoring to the blood the requisite con stituents of life, by renewing the nerve force and enabling the stomach to prompt ly and properly assimilate the food. Thesr pills are a specific for all diseases having their origination in Impoverished blood oe disordered nerves. They contain every element requisite to general nutrition, to restore strength to the weak, good health to the ailing. The population of Palestine is increasing fapidly.
