DR. TALMAGES SERMON. SUNDAY'S DISCOURSE BY THE NOTED DIVINE. Bubject: "The Power of Perseverance"— The Successful Are Not the Most Urll llant, But Those Wlio Everlastingly Slick to One Line ol £n-ould sling stones at a hairbreadth and not miss. Well, there was a king by the name of Eglon, who was an oppressor of Israel. He imposed upon them a most outrageous tax. Ehud, the man of whom I llrst spoke, had a divine commission to destroy that oppressor. He came pretending that he was going to pay tho tax and asked to see Eglon. He was told that he was in tho sum mer house, tho pluce to which the king re tired when it was too hot to sit in the palace. This summer house was a' place surrounded by flowers and trees and spring ing fountains and warbling birds. Ehud entered tho summer house and said to Eglon that bo bad a secret errand with him. Immediately all the attendants were waived out of tho royal presotce. King Eglon rises up to receive tho messenger. Ehud, the left handed man, puts bis left hand to bis right side, pulls out a dagger and thrusts Eglon through uhtilthe shaft went in after the blade. Eglon falls. Ehud eomes forth to blow a trumpet of liberty amid the mountains of Epbraiiu, and a host Is marsbuled, una proud Moab sub mits to tho conquerer and Israel is free. Ho, 0 Lord, let all Thlno enomlos perish! So, O Lord, let all Thy friends triumph! I learn llrst from this subject tho power of left handed men. There nro some men who by physical organization have as much strength in their left hand as in their right hand, but there Is something In the writing of this text which implies that Ehud had some defect In his right hand which compelled him to use his left. Ob, the power of left handed men! Genius is often self-observant, careful of itself, not given to much toll, burning incense to its own aggrandizement, while mn«ny a mau with no natural endowments, actually de fective in physical and mental organiza tion, has an enrnestness for tho right, pa tient industry, all consuming persever ance, which achieve marvels for tho king dom of Christ. Though left banded as Ehud, they can strike down a sin as great and imperial as Eglou. I have seen men of wealth 'gather about them all their treasures, snufflng at the world lying in wickedness, roughly order ing Lazarus off tbelr doorstep, sending their dogs, not to lick his sores, but to hound him off their premises; catching all the pure rain of God's blessing into tho stagnant, ropy, frog inhabited pool of their own sefflshness—right handed men worse than useless—while many a man with large heart and little purse has out of bis limited means made poverty leap for joy and started an influence that overspans the grave and will swing round and round the throne of God world without eud. Ah, mel It is blgb time that you left banded men, who have been longing for this gift and that eloquence and tho other man's wealth, should take your hands out of your pockets. Who made all theso rail roods? Who set up ail these cities? Who started all these churches and schools and asylums? Who has done the tugging and running nud pulling? Men of no wonder ful endowments, thousands of tbom ac knowledging themselves to bo left hauded, and yet they were earnest, and yot they were triumphant. But I do not suppose that Ehud, tho llrst time he took a sling In his left hand could throw a stone at u hair-breadth and not miss. I suppose it was practice that gave him tho wonderful dexterity. Go forth to vour spheres of duty and be not discour aged if, in your llrst attempts you miss the mark. Ehud missed it. Take another stone, put it carefully into the sling, swing it around vour head, take better aim and the next time you will strike the centre. The first time u mason rings his trowel upon the brick he does not expect to put in u perfect wail. Tho first time a carpen ter sends tb» plane over a board or drives u bit through a beam be does not expect to make perfect execution. The llrst time a boy attempts a rhyme ho does not expect to chime "Lallo ltookh," or a "Lady of the Lane." Do not bo surprised if [in your llrst efforts at doing good you are not very largely successful. Understand tbut usefulness is an art, a sci ence, a trade. There was an oculist per forming a very difficult operation on the human eye. A youug doctor stood by and said: "How easily you do that; it don't seem to cause you any trouble at all." "Ah," said tho old oculist, "it is vory easy now, but I spoiled a hatful of ey«s to learu that." Be not surprised if it takes some practice before wo can help men to moral eyesight and bring them to a vision of tho cross. Left handed men, to the work! Take tho gospel for a sling as d faith and repentance for the smooth stone from the brook, tako sure aim, God direct the waap on, und great Goliaths will tumblo before you. When Garibaldi was going out to battle he told his troops what he wanted them to do, and after he had described what be wanted tbem to do they said, "Well, gen eral, what are you going to givo us for all this?" "Well," bo replied, "I dou't know what else you will get, but you will get hunger, and cold, and wounds and death. How do you liko it?" Ills men stood be fore him for a little while in silence and then they throw up their hands and cried, "We are tho men! We are tho men!" The Lord Jesus Christ calls you to His service. I do not promise yoji an easy time In this world. You may have persecutions, und afterwards there comes au eternal weight of glory, and you can bear the wounds, and the bruites, and the misrepresenta tions, If you have the reward afterward. Have you not enough enthusiasm to cry out, "We are the men! Wo are tho men!" We laugh at tho children of Shinar for trying to build a tower that could reach to the heavens, but I think if our eyesight were only good enough we could see n liobel In many a dooryard. Oh, tho strug gle is fierce! It is store against store, house against house, street against street, nation against nation. The goal for which men are running is chairs and chandeliers and mirrors and bouses and lands und presidential equipments. If tbey got what they anticipate, what have they? Men are not safe from calumny while they live, and, worse than that, tbey are not safe after they are dead, for I have seen swino root up graveyards. One day a man goes up Into publicity, and the world does him honor, and people climb into sycamore trees to watch him as he passes, and as he goes along on the shoulders of tho people there is a waving of hats and a wild huzza. To-morrow the same man is caught be tween the jnws of tho prlnt'ng press and mangled und bruised, and the very same persons who applauded him before cry, "Down with the trnltor! down with him!" Belshazzar sits at the foast, the mighty men of Babylon sitting all around him. Wit sparkles like the wiDe and the winp like the wit. Music rolls up among the chandeliers; the chandeliers flash down on the decanters. The breath of banging gni dens floats in on the night air. The voice of revelry floats out. Amid wreaths and tapestry nnd folded banners a finger writes. The march of a host is heard on the stairs. Laughter catches in the throat. A thousand hearts stop beating. The blow is struck. The biood on the floor Is rlchor hued Uiau the wine on tho table. The kingdom has departed. Bel shazzar was ao worse perhaps than huu- dreds of people in Babylon, but bis posi tion slew him. Ob, be content with just such u position as God hot placed you int It may not be said of us, "He was a great general," or "He was ail honored chief tain," or "He was mighty in worldly at tainment," but this ran,.-be said of you and mo. "He was a good citizen, a faithful Christain, a friend to Jesus." And that in the last day will bo the highest of all eulo glums. I loarn further from this subject that death comes to the summer house. Eglon did not expect to die in that fine place. Amid all the flower leaves that drifted like summer snow into the window, in the tinkle and dash of fountains, the sound of a thousand leaves flutlug on one tree branch, in the cocl broezo that enmoup to shake the feverish trouble out of tho king's locks—there was nothing that spuke of death, but there he dledl In the winter, when the snow is a siirond, and when the wind Is a dirge, it is easy to think of oui mortality, but when the weather Is pleasant and all our surroundings are agreeable, how difficult it is for us to appreciate the truth that wo are mortall And yet my text teaches that death does sometimes come to tho summer house. He is blind and cannot see the leaves. Hois deaf and cannot bear the fountains. Oh, if death would ask us for victims we could point him to hundreds of people who would rejoice to have him come. Push back tho door of that hovel. Look at tho little child—cold, and sick, and hungry. It has never heard the name of God but in blasphemy. Paronts intoxicated, stag goring around its straw bed. Oh, death, there is a mark for thee! Up with it into tho light! Before those llttlo feet stumble on life's pathway give them rest. Hero is an aged muu. He has done bis work. Ho has done it gloriously. Tho companions of his youth all gone, ills children dead, bo longs to be at rest, and wearily tho days nud the nights pass. II« says. "Come, Lord, Jesus, come quickly!" Oil, death, there Is a mark for thee! Take from liiui the staff and givo him the scep ter! Up with him into the light, where eyes nevor grow dim, and the hair whitens not through the long years of eternity. All, Doath will not do that. Death turns back from the straw bed and from the aged man ready for the skies and comes to the summer house. What doest thou hero, thou bony, ghastly monster, amid this waving grass and under this sun light sifting through the tree branches? Children are at play. How quickly their feet go and their locks toss in the wind. Father and moth er stand at the sldo of the room looking on, enjoying their glee. It does not seem possible that the wolf should ever break into that fold and carry off a lamb. Mean while an old archer stands looking through the thicket. Ho points bis arrow at the brightest of the group—he is a sura marksman—the bow bends, the arrow speeds! Hush now. Tiie quick feet havo stopped and the locks toss no more in the wind. Laughter has gone out of the hall. Death in the summer house! Here i9 a father lu midlife. His coming homo lit night is the signal for mirth. The children rush to the door, and there are books ou the evening stand, and the hours pass away on glad feet. There is nothing wanting in that home. Religion is there and sacrifices on the altar morning and night. You look in that household and sav, "I cannot think of anything happier. I do not really believe the world is so sad a plaoe as some people describe it to be." The scone changes. Father is sick. The doors must be kept shut. The deuthwatoh chirps dolefully on the hearth. The chil dren whisper and walk softly where once they romped. Passing the Louse lato at night, you see the quick glancing of lights from room to room. It is all over! Death in the summer house! Hero Is an aged mother—aged, but not infirm. You think you will have the joy of caring for her wants a good while yet. As she goes from house to house, to children and grandchildren, her coming Is a drop ping of sunlight in the dwelling. Your children seo her coming through tho lune, and they cry, "Graudmothor's cornel" Care for you bas marked upon her face with many a deep wrinklo, and her back stoops with carrying your burdens. Somo day she Is very quiet. She savs she is not sick, but something tolls you "you will not much longer have a mother. She will sit with you no more at the table nor at tho hearth. Her soul goes out so gently you do not exactly know the moment of its go ing. Fold tho hands that have done so many'kindnesses for you right over the heart that has beat with love toward vou since before you were born. Let tho pil grim rest. She is weary. Death in the summer house! Gather about us what we will of comfort and luxury. When the pale messenger comos, ho does not stop to look at tho architecture of the house before ho comes in, nor, entering, does he wait to ex amine the pictures we have gathered on the wall, or, bending over your pillow, he does not stop to see whether there is color in tho cheek or gentleness in the eye or intelligence in tha brow. But what of that? Must we stand forever mourning among the graves of our dead? No! No! The people In Bengal bring cages of birds to the graves of their dead, und then they open tho cages and the birds go singing heavenward. So I would bring to the graves of your dead all bright thoughts and congratulations and bid them sing of victory and re demption. I stamp on the bottom of the grave, and it breaks through into the light and the glory of heaven. The ancients used to think that the straits entering the Red sea were very dun gerous places, and they supposed that the wrecked that have gono through those straits would be destroyed, and thoy were In the habit of putting on vroeds of mourn ing for those who had gone on that voy age, ns though they were actually dead. Do you know what they called those straits? Thoy called them the "Gate of Tears." After the sharpest winter the spring dis mounts from the shoulder of a southern gale and puts its warm hand upon the earth, and in its palm there comes the grass, and there comes the flowers, and God reads over the poetry of bird and brook and bloom and pronounces it very good. What, my friends, If every winter had not its spring, and every night its day, and every gloom its glow, and every bitter now its sweet hereafter! If you have been on the sea, you know, as the ship passes in the night, there is a phosphorescent track left behind it, and as the water rolls up they toss with unimaginable splendor. Well, across this great ocean of human troubles Jesus walks. Oh, that in the phospores cont track of His feet wo might all follow and be illumined! There was a gentleman in a rail car who saw in that some car throe passengers of very different circumstances. The first was a maniac. Ho was ccrefully guarded by his attendants. His mind like a ship dismasted, was boating against a dark, desolate coast, from which no help could come. The train stopped and the man was taken out into the asylum to waste away perhaps through years of gloom. The sec ond passenger was a culprit. The outraged law had seized on him. As the car jolted tho chains rattled. On his face were crime, depravity aud despair. The train halted,and he was taken out to tho penitentiary, to which he had been condemned. There was the third passenger, under; far different circumstances. She was a bride. Every hour was as gay as a marriago bell. Life glittered und beckonod. Her companion was taking her to her father's house. The train halted. Tho old man was there to welcome her to her new home, and his white locks snowed down upon her as he sealed his word with a father's kiss. Quick ly we fly toward eternity. We will soon be there. Homo leave this life condemned cul prits, and they refuse to pardoD. Oh, may it bo with us that, loaving this fleeting life for the lioXt, we may ilnd our Father ready to greot us to our new home with Him for ever! That will be a marriage banquetl Father's welcome! Father's bosom! Father'! kiss! Heaven! Heaveul A TEMPERANCE COLUMN. THE DRINK EVIL MADE MANIFEST IN MANY WAYS. A Foe to Fight—'The Came* Wlileh Have Produced an Era of Alcoholism—Alco hol a Moral, Physical, Intellectual and Social Polboii— The Century's Curse. TVP will fight the liquor traffic; Ves, we'll light it to the death, We will lift our voice against It, ■iust as long as we have breath. We will not defend the rummies, >.* or for them apologize, But expose their wretched business, Till in misery it dies. Would you tolerate a lion Or a tiger in your street. Which would trample or devour Any child It chanced to meet? Would you send your youth and children Out upon that street to roam, And you calmly sit Indifferent In the shelter of your home? No, you would go out with weapons, Every man in town would go And with clubs and stones and bullets, Give the beast a powerful blow: There would be a great excitement, You would boldly hunt him down, And most certainly would kill him, Or would drive him front the town. Friend, do you esteem a lion Or a tiger greater harm Thau saloons along your sidewalks? Does it cause you more alarm? See those rum shops unmolested, Countless victims they destroy, And they're waiting, surely longing To ensnare your girl or boy. —The National Advocate. The Century's Curse. Tho curse of modern society which strikes deep into every class is alcoholism. Alcoholism must not be confounded with drunkenness, says Dr. Bienfalt, a Belgian scientist. Drunkenness always existed, but alcoholism, that passion of the masses for alcohol and its sad consequonces for the individual, the family and society at large, was almost unknown a hundred years ago. How did this deadly passion take its rise? The dominant cause resides in tho simplo fact that formerly wine was dear and spirits anything but plentiful, whereas within the present century enormous quantity of alcohol have been dispensed everywhere. TUe result has been a perfect flood of distilled liquors all the world over within reach of the poorest. Very cheap at first, alcohol rose fn price owing to tho ; heavy duties placed upon it. Yet the con i sumption did not diminish. Tho laborer, however poor, still Intoxicates himself at tho cost of bitter privation to those de , pendent upon him. Man seeks In the use ! of spirituous liquors that hnppy dream ■ state which brings oblivion to worry and i casts a roseate hue over everything—not > that condition of complete Inebriation which sinks man lower than the beast, but the agreeable sensation experienced after i partaking of even a small quantity of al cohol, and which gives the Illusion of un wonted strength and energy. That is why the laborer, exhausted by his work and | saddened by his present lot Rnd gloomy ' future, has recourse to alcohol as to a wiz ard who, by a stroke of his magic wand, transports him beyond the borders of sor did reality. He does not stop to tbink, poor wretch, that the awakening will find him worse off than before. Niristhe working class alone affected by alcoholism; intelligent and well edu cated poople, who ought to set a good ex ample, are also among Its victims. The gin bottle accompanies tho laborer, and the bottle of Burgundy, Bordeaux, rum or cognac Is to bo found on many a table. It is present at many a ceremony, many a discussion and numberless insipid conver sations. This friend which gradually steals away health, reason and conscience is mado the confidant of projects, hopes, despair, joy and sorrow. "Who cannot cite among the friends at the bar, in the army, iu the civil service, and even in the medical profession," ask Dr. Bienfait, of Brussels, "such aud such a person whose health U visibly undermined by abuse of liquor?" In Dr. Bienfalt's opinion alcohol is a physical, moral, intellectual and social poison.—New York Herald. OrnnkartU Barred Out. She went reeling across the ladies' wiat fng room aud fell in a senseless heap just inside the door. The great room was filled with the usual varied throug—smartly dressed young women, Intelligent-looking college girls, eurnest, anxious mothers, quiet sisters of charity and others with the hard lessons of life written upon their tired faces—but not one among them all stepped forward to lend a helping hand to this fallen bit of humanity that lay, like n blot, upon the dusty floor. Even the big hearted colored woman in charge drew herself up straight, with added dignity, and held herself aloof as, with curling Hp, she touched the electric button at her el bow. A moment later au official appeared and smiled significantly as he raised the prostrate form aud led it tottering from the room. No one followed, but ull felt as if they had suffered an Indignity, and so, shut out from the kind and the good, this frail sister went us if to her doom. "Say, has Jenkins got a job yet?" we overheard one man ask uuother while waiting on the street for a car. "No, course ho hasn't," was tho answer in jfruff tones. "Doesn't deserve any. S'pose anybody's goln' to hire a mun smellln' o' whisky half the time?" The speaker was red-faced and blear eyed, but that did not seem to make any difference in the expression of his opinion. In the popular mind there are few weak nesses or crimes that excito so little sym pathy as the habit of intoxication, Man condemns his fellow-men without a hear ing. Business methods demand sobriety and an unclouded brain. To the inebriate tho hard world offers no place of trust or responsibility, "Out you go," Is tho de cree of the employer to the employe who lius made himself unreliable and incompe tent by the dread curse. Could the tempted ones realize this truth, they would hesitate long before forging their chains.—Union Signal. Notes of the Crusade. The liquor traffic will never commit sui cide. Drink buries sorrow that rises again to morrow. Of 51,000 breweries in the world, 25,000 are In Germany. The drink traffic practically bosses th« political and commercial life of the country. It appears that our army of occupation has introduced anew vloe into Porto ISico, that of intoxication. By b vote of the California Senate, no wine, beer, or other spirituous liquor was served at the inaugural ball. Local-option contests Iu Georgia during the past year uulformly show increased majorities for no-license. The year 1898 shows a great gain of ten counties in the no-license column. The indulgence in strong drink of fathers and mothers of families Is the cause of much of the misery of childhood. .Strong drink qualifies you to become au ' uuililtlful child, an unnatural parent, a cruel husband or u disgusting wife. The liquor law commission In Faul Krucger's Transvaal has recommended ad ditional restrictions to the excise law tnd additional penalties for its violation. The last of the long list of punishments Is thirty five lashes. Lord Kitchener, the Egyptian Sirdar, treats with great rigor the offense of drunk enness among hfs troops.
