DR. TALLAGES SERMON. SUNDAY'S DISCOURSE BY THE NOTED DIVINE. "Silence in Heaven," the Snhjcct—The Mighty Import of the Censation De scribed 111 He relation*—Half Honrs Which Have Determined Destinies. TEXT: "There was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour." —Reve- lations, via., 1. "Take this watch and keep it," said a dying Christian as he picked it up from the stand at bis pillow, "I have no more need of it. I um Koing where time shall be no longor." But it seems from my text that heaven was at least onoe measured by an earthly tjme-piece. The busiest place in the universe is heaven. It is the center from which all good influences start; It is the goal at which ull good results arrive. The Bible represents it us active, with wheels and wines and orchestras and processions, mounted or charioted. But my text de scribes a space wheu the wheels ceased to roll and the trumpets to sound aud the voices to chant. The riders on the white horses reined In their chargers. The dox ologies were bushed and the processions halted. The band of arrest was put upon all the splendors. "Stop, Heaven!" cried an omnipotent voice, and it stopped. For thirty minutes everything celestial stood still. "There was silence in heaven for the space of half an hour." From ull we can learn it is the only time heaven ever stopped. It does not stop, as other cities, for the night, for there Is no night there. It does not stop fora plague, lot the inhabitant never says,"l am sick." It does not stop for bankruptcies, for its inhabitants never fail. It does not stop for impassable streets, for tbero are no fallen snows or sweeping ivesbets. What, then, stopped it for thirty minutes? Grotlus and Professor Stuart think It was at the time of the destruction of Jerusa lem. Mr. Lord thinks it was in the year 811, near the close ot the Diocletian perse cution and the beginning of the wars by which Constantine gained the throne. But that was all a guess, though a learned aud brilliant Ruess. I do not know when it was, and I do not care when it was, but of the fact that such an interregnum of sound took place I am certain. "There wa9 silence in heaven for the space of half an hour." And. first of all, we may learn that God and all heaven then honored silence. The lull power of silence many of us have yet to learn. We are told that when Christ was arraigned "He answered not a word." That silence was louder than any thunder that ever shook the world. Ofttimes, when we are assailed and misrepresented, the mightiest thing to say is t« say nothing, and the mightiest thing to do is to do noth ing. Those people who are always rush ing into print tc> get themselves set right, accomplish nothing but their own chagrin. Silencel Do right and leave the results with God. Among tho grandest lessons the world has ever learned are the lessons of patience taught by those who endured uncomplainingly personal or domestic or political injustice. Oh, the power of patient silence! Escbylua, the immortal poet, was condemned to death lor writing something that offended the people. All the pleas in his behalf were of no avail, un til his brother uncovered the arm of the prisoner and showed that his wrist had been sacrificed for his country at the battle of Salamis. That silent plea liberated him. The loudest thing on earth is silence if it be of the right kin 1 and at tho right time. There was a quaint old hymn, spelled in the old style, once sung in the churches: The raoe is not forever get By him who fastest runs, Nor'the Battel by those peopell That shoot with the longest gun. Mv friends, the tossing sea of Galilee seemed more to offend Christ by th<? amount of noiso it made, for He said to it: "Be still!" Heaven has been crowning Kings and Queens unto God for many centuries, yet heaven never stopped a moment for any such occurrence, but it stopped thirty minutes for the coronntion of Silence. " There was silence in heaven for the space of half an hour." Learn also from my test that heaven must be an eventful and active place, from the fact that it could afford only thirty minutes of recess. There have been events on earth and In heaven that seemed to de mand a whole day or whole week or whole year for celestial consideration. If Grotius was right and this silence occurred at tfie time of the destruction of Jerusalem, that scene was so awful and so prolonged that the Inhabitants of heaven could not have done justice to it in many weeks. After fearful besiegement of the iwo fortresses of Jerusalem Antonio and Hippicus—had been going on for a long while, a Bo:nau soldier mounted on the shoulder of another soldier hurled into the window of the tem ple a 'firebrand, and the temple was all aflame, and after covering many sacrifices to the holiness of God, the building itself became a sacrifice to the rage of man. The hunger of the peeple in that city during the besiegement was so great" that as some outlaws were passing a doorway and inhaled the odors ot food they burst open the door, threatening the mother of the household witli death unless she gave them some food, and she took them aside and showed them tlmt it was her own child she was cooking for the ghastly repast. Six hundred priests were destroyed on Mount Zion because, the temple being gone, there was nothing for them to do. Six thousand ■>eople in one cloister were consumed. There were 1,100,000 dead, according to Josepbus. Grotius thinks that this was the cause of silence In heaven for half an hour. If Mr. Lord wa9 right, and this silence was during the Diocletian persecutions, by which 844.000 Christians suffered death .rom sword and lire, and banishment and exposure, why did not henven listen throughout at least one of those awful years? Nol Thirty minutes! The fact is "hat the celestial programme is so crowded with spectacle that it can afford only ono recess in all eternity, and that for a short space. While there are great chorouses in vhieh all heaven can join, each soul there aas a story of divine mercy peculiar to it self, and it must bo a solo. How can heaven >?et through with all its solos, as well as ill its recitatives, with all its cantatas, .vith all Its grand marches, with all its vic ories? Eternity is too short to utter ull . he praise. Not only are all the triumphs of tho past o be commemorated, but ull the triumphs o come. Not only what we now know of od, but what we will know of Him after .•erlasting study of the Deiflc. If my test ad said there was silence iu heaven for hirty days, I would not have been startled the announcement, but it indicates thir minutes. Why, there will be so many iends to hunt up; so many of the greatly 3od and useful that we will want to see; ) many of the unserutable things of earth 'e will need explained; so many exciting irthly experiences we will want to talk ver. and all the other spirits and the ages ill want the same, that there will be no iportunity foroessation. How busy we ill be kept in having pointed out to us the ■roes and heroines that the world never .lly appreciated—the yellow fever and lolera doctors, who died not flying from ieir posts; the female nurses who faced •stllence in the laiarettoes; the railroad ginee» who stayed at their places in or •r to save the train, though they them lves perished and went down through i open drawbridge. mbert Goffln, the master miner, who, iJing from the bucket at the bottom of ■) mine, just as he heard the waters rush , and when one jerk of the rope would ;ve lifted him to safety, nut a blind Iner who wanted togo to his sick child the bucket, and jerked the rope for him be pulled up, crying: "Tell them the iter has burst In and we are probably it: but we will seek refuge at the other end of the gallery," and then Riving the command to the other miners till they, digged themselves so near oat that the people from the outside could eome to their rescue. The multitudes of men and wom en who got no crown on earth, *0 will want to see when they get their crown in heaven. I teli you heaven will have no more half hours to spare. Besides that, heaven is full of children. They are in the vast majority. No child on earth who amounts to anything can be kept quiet half an hour, and how are you going to keep 300,000,000 of tHem quiet half an hour. You know heaven is much more of a place than it was when that recess of thir ty minutes occurred. Its population has quadrupled, sextupled, centupled. Heaven has more on hand, more of rapture, more of knowledge, more of intercommunica tion, more of worship. There is not so much difference between Washington, a mudhole seventy years ago, and Washing ton now, the most beuatiful city on earth; not so much difference between New York when Canal street was far uptown, and when Canal street is fur downtown, as there is difference botween what heaven was when my text was written and wbat heaven is now. The most thrilling place we have ever been in is stupid compared with that and if we now have no time to spare, w> will then have no eternity to spare. Silence in heaven only half an hourl My subject also Impresses me with the immortality of a haif hour. That half hour mentioned in my text is more widely known than any other period in the cal endar of heaven. None of the whole hours of heaven are measured off, none of the years, none of the centuries. Of the millions of uges past, and the millions of ages to come, not one is especially measured off In the Bible. The half hour of my text is made immortal. The only part of eternity that was ever measured by earthly timepiece was measured by the minute hand of my text. Oh, the half hours! They decide everything. I am not asking what you will do with the years or months or days of your life, but what of the half hours. Tell me the history of your half hours, and I will tell you the story of your wholo life on earth and the story of your whole life In eternity. The risht or wrong things you can think in thirty minutes, the right or wrong things you can say in thirty minutes, the right or wrong things you can do in thirty minutes are glorious or baleful, Inspiring or desper ate. Look out for the fragments of time. They are pieces of eternity. It was the hall hours between shoeing horses that made Elihu Burrltt the learned black smith; the half hours between professional calls as a physiclal that made Abercromble the Christian philosopher; the half hours Between his duties as school master that made Salmon P. Chase Chief Justice; the half hours between shoe lasts that made Henry Wilson Vico-Fresident of the Cnlted States; the half hours between canal boats that made James A. Garileld President. The half hour a day for good books or bad books; the half hour a day for prayer or indolence; the half hour a day for helping others or blasting others; the half hour before you go to business, and the half hour after your return from business; that makes the difference between the scholar and the ignoramus, between the Christian and the lnlldtl, between the saint and the demon, between triumph and catastrophe, between heaven and hell. The most tre mendous things of your life and mine were certain half hours. Remember, we are mortal yet, and can not endure the full roll of heavenly har monies, and cannot endure even the silent heaven for more than half an hour. Hark! the clock in the tower of heaven begins to strike, and the half hour is ended. De scend! Come back! Com* down! till your work Is done. Shoulder a little lodger your battles. Weep a little longer your griefs. Aud then take heaven not in its fullest half hour, but in its mightiest pomp and instead of taking it for thirty minutes, take it world without end. But how will you spend the first half hour of your heavenly citizenship after you have tyne into stay? After your prostration before the throne iu worship of Him who made it possible foryou to get there at all, I think the rest of your first half hour in heaven will be passed in receiving your re ward if you have been faithful. I have a strangely beautiful book, containing the pictures of the medals struck by the Eng lish Government in honor of fereat battles; these medals pinned over the heart of the returned heroes of the army, on great oc casions, the royal family present, and the royal bands playing—the Crimean medal, the Legion of Honor, the Victoria Cross, the Waterloo medal. In your first half hour iu heaven in some way you will bo honored for the earthly struggles in wnieh you won the day. Stand up before all the "royal house of heaven and receive the insignia while you are announced as victor over political misfortune, as victor over the droughts and freshets of the farm Held, victor over the temptations of the stock exchange, victor over domestic in felicities, victor over mechanic's shop, vic tor over professional allurements, victor over the storehouse, victor over home worriments, victor over physical distress, victor over hereditary depressions, victor over sin and death and hell. Take the badge that celebrates those victories through our Lord Jesus Christ. Take it in the presence of all the galleries, saintly, angelic, and divine, while all heaven chants: "These are they who came out of great tribulation and had their robes washed and made white in tho blood of the Lamb." Thy saints in all this glorious war *» Shall conquer though they die; They 9ee the triumph from afar, And seize it with their eye. If heaven is all this while halted, what will it be when on the march? If h«aven is all this while silent, what will It be when in full triumph? Many years ago, at the Crystal Palace, in New York, Julian gave a great concert, 3000 voices and 3000 players, upon instruments. He controlled that great harmony, beating time with hand and foot, and to myself, who had never before heard music on a grand scale, it was over powering. But oh, when they shall come from the north and the south, and the east and the west, and sit down in the temple of God and the Lamb, and Christ shall rise, and all heavenshall rise with Him, He shall control that harmony with once wounded hand and once wounded foot, and it will be like the voice of many waters and the voice of mighty thunderlngs. Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive bless ing and riches and honor and glory and power. Amen and amenl A NORWEGIAN'S PRAISE OF US.

THE DRINK EVIL MADE MANIFEST IN MANY WAYS. The Conqueror—Astounding Comparison of Expenditure* For Liquor and For Government—Every Man's Wife as His Barkeeper—Buying a Sot's Grave. The barkeeper's wife has a sealskin coat, But mine has an old plaid shawl; She has jewels for finger and ear and throat. But mine has none at all. H«r only ring I stole one night And pawned for a poisoned drink! Oh, mother of minel Bring back the light Of youth and the strength to think! The barkeeper' 3 child has books and toys, My children have vant and woe; They never have dwelt in the world of joy 3 The barkeeper's child may know. At a tiny doll my baby's eye Would dance and her heart would swell, But I've always taken the price to buy A cup of the liquid hell. Ob, the girl I wooed in the good, glad years, Whose pure lips touched with mine, I swear to banish her bitter tears In the strength of a love divine! An'' hearts so broken and sad, to-day, With new-found bliss shall thrill, For the devil of rum I'll cast away, God helping m 1 ?, I will! —Nixon Waterman, in L. A. W. Bulletin. The Panacea For Poverty. . The Rev. Dr. Madison C. Peters, of New York, snoke recently in the Auditorium at Ocean Grove, N. J., on"The Panacea for Poverty." In part he said: "One of the supreme problems of the hour is the auti-saloon issue. The entire amount received for tariff in 1805 was less than $135,000,000; the annual receipts from customs for the three year? ending J line 30, 1804. was only *171,000,000. "How utterly insignificant are these fig ures compared to the $1.000,000,000 which, it is reliably estimated, is the direct tribute which the people of this country annually pay to support the liquor traffic! The or dinary expenses of the United States Gov ernment during 1835 was less than $375,- 000,000, so that the liquor bill for that year was threetlmestheamount required to run the entire Government of the United States. "No power that can b» obtained by labor combinations can help the laboring man who spends his money in drink. What has becomo of the billions and billions of dol lars in this country paid to the working classes? Much of it'has gone for the ne cessities of life, but it is estimated that fully one-half of the drink bill of the country comes out of tho wages of the workingmen. "The wage classes cannot support !n idleness and luxury 232,205 liquor dealers and their families and pay the enormous rents of their dram shops and hope to pros per themselves. There Is no reason, if we are a sober people, why poverty should bo known in America, the envy of the nations. What, then, is the matter? Profossor Pea body, of Harvard, writes to the Forum that the result of au investigation in Boston was that in 1805 the number of persons vis iting the saloons of that city every day was 220,752, or nearly half the entire popu lation. If each person expended ten cents the amount for the year would be $6,802,- 560, or more than the amount of money spent in public schools. lire department, police department and public parks. "Following the estimate of George B. Wuldron, based upon Government reports, of $lO spent for shoes, tracing them back through the tannery and factory, $2.80 goes to pay the farmer for his hides and $2.91 to the tanners and shoemakers. Of $lO spent for a suit of clothes $2.28 goes to the farmer and $2.77 for wages to the splnuer, the weaver and the tailor, and so on through the industries. But out of $lO spent for beer or whisky onlv ninety-six cents goes to the farmer for his grain and thirty-eight cents to the man who pro duces the ltquor. "Every time that a man spends a nickel for bread instead of for beer ho pays the difference between sixty-eight per cent, and seventeen per cent. Not overproduc tion but underconsumption, is our trouble now. You cannot spend your money In the saloons and in the stores also. Close the saloons and more goods of all kinds will be demanded. The wives and children of men who drink wear too few shoes, too few clothes and have too little food. More capital is Invested and less labor is employed in the liquor industry than in any" other Industry in the Uuited States. A gallon of whisky costs about $3 and contains about sixty-five fif teen-eent drinks. "Now. if must drink, buy a gallon and make your wife barkeeper. When you are dry give her fifteen cents for a drink, and when the whisky is gone she will have, after paying for it, $6.75 left, and every gallon thereafter will yield the same profit. This money she should put awayffco that when you nave become au inebriate, una ble to support yourself, your wife may have money enough to keep you until your time comes to fill a drunkard's grave. This was the advice an actor gave to his friend. In spite of the hard times last year, the citizens of New York drank 5,051,- 000 barrels of all kinds of liquors at a cost of $138,710,208. "Now, this vast sum, diverted by law and the Gospel to tho purchase of necessi ties, would give to New York such a busi ness boom that we should have to work night and day with two or three shifts of workmen to supply demands. The drink problem is the financial problem. The palaces of the brewers aro wreckage pajaces, made of the wrecks of homes. They are built with money coined from tears." The Drunkard at a Citizen. If we look upon a man a3 an individual of the great family of human beings, his sin of intemperance becomes a greater curse still. As a member of society, each one has got his place, works to perform, obligations to comply with, towards the state in which he lives. Under a constitu tional government wo enjoy liberty. The drunkard abuses this liberty. His intem perance makes him incapable of obeying or appreciating the law, because drunkenness destroys his reason and annihilates his judgment. It is tho duty of each individual to assist, as far as in his power lies, the government under which he lives. In mak ing and obeying the laws of the land, to support its institutions and to fulfil his duties to his fellow man. Does the drunk ard do it? He continually offends against the laws; he is not only unable to pay his portion of taxation, but, owing to his vices, prisons, hospitals, police, judges, poor houses, asvlums, madhouses, have to be maintained at enormous expense, and so to the damage of his fellow citizens: the drunkard then acts unfairly and unjustly to his fellow creatures. The Warfare on Itnin. Labor Is often ruined by liquor. Temperance sentiment has for its basis an appalling fact. When a man goes to'the dogs he gen erally start out by way of liquor. The test of manliness is not the capacity to drink large quantities of beer. To be sober is to be secure from tempta tions peculiar to those who drink to ex cess. _ Intemperance awakens the bad passions of the human heart, which, only for It, the will could well control. Few mothers would regret the total disap pearance of intoxicating drinks, and the places wherein they are sold. Intemperance is an Insult to Ood as Creator, as well as Bedeemer. It is an in quiry to our neighboc. It is detrimental* tojfooteir. A Woman Presents a Check. Scene: A downtown bank. "Will you cash that, please?" "Certainly, but it requires a stamp." "A what?" "A stamp; a bank check stamp. Up here in the corner." "Does it?" "Yes." "Well, why don't you put it on?" "We are not the ones to put it on. The person who draws the check stamps it." "What's it for?" "It's a war tax." "How funny. Does the Govern ment expect to carry on the war with my poor little two cents?" "Yes, with yours and others." "But I haven't any stamp. I've been out of town and didn't know about the law." "It wasn't necessary to know it un til you drew the check." "How ridiculous. And you won't let me have any money until I put a stamp in the corner?" "We are obliged to insist that the tax be paid." "Supposing I give you two cents?" "That will do." "But I haven't two cents." "Perhaps you could borrow it of somebody." "Perhaps I could—of you." "As a banker I couldn't countenance any such transaction." "Dear, dear. How ridiculously serious it is. Here, I have a car ticket. You take it for five cents, and give me three cents change. Will you?" "Yes." Then she went away with a bright smile. She had cleared a fractiou of a cent by calling the value of the ticket five cents.—Cleveland Plain Dealer. "Talking Quaker." It is no-easy matter for a novice to talk "Quaker" fluently.

When I happened upon him, he was sitting on a fence, vacant ly staring at a cream-colored cow in the adjaeant field. lat once defined him to be a "Friend" in undress, and determined to delight the old fellow and amuse myself by carrying on a skillful dialogue in his own idiom. This is how I succeeded: "How do thee do, sir? Is —that is —are thee meditating?" If he was de lighted he controlled his emotion ad mirably. All he did was to gape and inquire: "Hey?" "The fields, the birds, the flowers," I pleasantly pursued, "are enough to bring thou dreams—l mean dreams to thou." He was looking at me now, and crit ically. I felt that my syntax had been very idiotic instead of idiomatic; so, wiping the sweat from my brow and hat, I eyed him calmly and observed: "Those cows, are they thy's—or thee's —that is, thou's hang it, I mean thine's?" It was very fortunate. He crawled down from the c enee, and as he ambled awaj mutterec indignantly: "Goto Bed' .m!
