At the International Congrens of
Aeronauts It was recommended that
rertlfleatoR of competency lio issued to
all persons before they be permitted to
make ascensions. This was due to
the fact that ballooning was being
taken up by many persons who had no
real understanding of Its principles and
who often lost their lives throimh pure
Ignorance and recklessness. The real
balloonist has a dignified appreciation
of his fad. In fact, the balloon ascen
sion has gone beyond the scientific
pastime, and In one or two of the cities
has become a fashionnble function a
fashion, however, which Is not likely
to become a rage. The form of bal
looning as seen at the county fair and
cheap summer resort Is not to bo
ranked with the professional, for U Is
a purely commercial and debased use
of It. The scientific balloonist or the
professional balloonist Is just as
proud of his expert knowledge as any
other expert scientist could possibly bo
of his superior attainments.

Washington. D. C In a Tory novel,
wny T)r. Tnlmnfto in his discourse dpsfrihis
wlint may lie rxpeetcd in the next world
by thnsp who here bond nil their fnerRip
in Hip riftht direction! tcxr,, II pptr I,
11, "For so an rntrnnop shall be minis-,
ten"' tinto you abundantly."
Different slyles of welromo nt tho (rntfs
of henven are here suciested. We nil
hope to enter that siiprnnl capital tlirotHi
the T.ice thnt is revly to save rvrn the
rhipf of sinnc-rs, but not now. No man
henlthv of body and mind wants to go
now. The mm u-hn hurls hitnvelf nut of
! thin life is cither an acnostic nr ia do-
merited, or finds lfe insnffcnble. and
does rot esre where he lands. This i - the
beat wHd we ever got into, end we want
to sta'- 'lore ns lonir as (!od will let us stny.
Rut when tbe last pne of the volume f
our eivlMy life ia enHed we wn enroll
ment. in heavenly citizenship. We want
to ret in caailv. AVe do not. want to bo
cbnllenced at the qrnte and ashed to show
onr passnorts. We Ho not. wnnt the gate
keener in doubt a to whether we oitdht
to ro in at all. Wo do not want to be
kept in the nnrtico of the temple until
consultation ia made aa to where we oamn
fmm and who we ave anil whether it ia
sife to admit us. lest we be a discord in
the eternal hnrmoniea or lower the apirit
of heavenlv worship. When the Apostle
Peter in the text addresses thrt people.
"For so an entrance shall be administered
nnto yon abun-'antlv." l.e i.uplies that
some will find .'idnvssinn into henven easy,
ranturons and acol.imntory, while others
will have to squeeze thrnuirh the gate of
heaven, if they get in at all. They will
arrive anxious and excited and apprehen
sive and wondering whethe- if, -jll 1m
"Come!" or "fio!" The JtiWe snenks of
ancb persona aa "scarcely saved." and in
another plnee ns "saved as v fi-e," ami in
another "'ice na escaped "by the akin of.
the teeth."
Carrying out the suggestion of my text;
T pronose to show vou what, classes oS
Christ inns will ret into heaven with a
hard puh and those who w;ll bound in
amid salutation infinite. In the fVst
class T put, that mnn who gets into the'
kingdom of Ond nt the cloe of a life all
given to woi'Mlmes nnd sn. Years ao
he mede the resolution 'hat he wou'd
ser'-e himself and serve the world until
bodv, mind and soul were exlin"o'.df and
thep. just before going out of this life,
would see'r (!od nnd prendre to enter
heaven. Tfe enrrica out hi rcso'ution.
He genuinclv renents the last dny or 'tho
Inst hour or the last minute of his life
He takes the !at et in the last of
the lest team bound heavenward. His re
leased and immortal spirit ascends. Not
one wing bear down toward him with a
welcome, No sign of eladness at his ar
rive'. None there oblirnted to him for
kindners done or alms distributed or spir
itual help administered. He will find some
place to stay, but I do rot envy that mnn
his h"ven. He rot in, but it was not an
abundant entrance.
Sometime in our puhuts we give a
wron turn to the stoy oF h dving thif
to whom Ph-ist said: "Tips dey shalt
thou be with Me in paradise." We onHit
to admire the mercy of the Christ thnt,
Pardoned iiim in the last hour, but n pot
let us admire the dvinT thief. When he
wag arrested I th:"k his pocket were full
of stolen coin and the c" he had on hi
hack wna not his o rn. He stole rijht on
until he was avrcstod for his crimes. He
repented, nnd through great mercy arose
to paradise, but he was no example to
follow. What a giynntie meanness to de
vote the wondrous eeu;nment of brain and
nerve and m"cle and bone with which we
nre endowred. the miracles of night and
hearing r.nd speech, to purposes unworthx
or profane and then, thrush hatv re
, nentnnre nt the last enter heaven. Cheat
ing God all one's lifetime and then taking
advantage of a bankrupt, law and mode
free of all liabilities. I should think thnt
some men would be ashamed to enter
heaven.
Again, the bigot will not have what my
text calls an abundant entrance. He has
hia hedwarfed opinion as to what ail must
believe and do in order to gnin celestial
residence. He has hia creed in one pocket
and his catechism in another pocket, and
it may be n good creed and a good cate
chism, but he uses them a sharp swordi
ncninst those who will not accept his the
ories. You must be baptized in his wny
or come to him through apostolic succes
sion or be foreordained of eternity or yor.
are in an awful way. He ahrivels up and
shrivels up and becomes more splenetic
until the time of his departure is at hand
He haa enough of the salt of grace to save
him, hut his entrance into henven will be
omethine worth watching. What do they
want with him in heaven, wdiere they
have all gone into eternal catholicity, one
grand commingling of Methodists and
Vantiata and Episcopalians and Lutherans
and Congregationalists and Presbyterians
and a score of other denominations just
as good as any I hnve mentioned? They
all join in the halleluiah chorus, accompan
ied by hnrnein on their harps and trump
eter on their trumpet, "Worthy is the
Lamb that wa slain to receive blessing
and riches and honor and glory and pow
er." Denominations of Christiana on earth
were necessary in order to better work
and to suit preferences, as an army must
be divided into regiments, yet one army;
a a neighborhood must he divided into
families, though one neighborhood. But
there i no need for'suth division in heav
en, and therefore all helong to one de
nomination of sainthood. What will be
the bigot's amazement when he sees
seated side bv aide on the banks of the
river of life Calvin and Arminius, Arch
bishop Cramner and some dissenting
preacher of the gospel who never gradu
ated, one who on earth was a robed and
surpliced ecclesiastic, and a backwoods
minister who in the log cabin meeting
house preached in a linen duster? Among
the great surprises of heaven for the bigot
will be the celestial friendliness of those
who on earth opposed each other in wrath'
icat polemics. He will get through tin
gate, for he ha a sp.irk of divine grace ir
his heart, but there v II not be an inrk
of room to sparj cither sid of him. It
will nut t.'.liP fur heaven to educate
liiin into a gl.iriima big heartednOf'.
Again, the penurious Christian w.'l not
have an abundunt entrance. Perhanl he
was not converted until all his habits 3'
tight fisteduess were lixed beyond recov
ery. The people who are generous were
taught to be generous in childhood. You
can tell from the way that boy divides tho
apple what his characteristics for gener
osity or meanniM will be for the next
eighty years if he lives so long. If he eat
it all himself while others look wistfully
on, he will be a rihylock. If he give half
of it to some one who has no apple he
will be an ordinarily generous man. If
be give three-fourths of it to another, he
wil be a Huron Ilirsch or a Ueorge Pea-
for thirty years tins man has been prac
ticing an economy which prilled itself on
never passing a pin without picking it up,
Hid if he responded at all in church
would put on the collection plate so insig
nificant a coin that he iteld liis hand over
it so that no one could ti'scover the smull
uess of the denomination. Somewhere in
' tlio fifties or sixties of hia life, during a
revival of religion, he becanio a Christian,
He i very much changed in.most respects,
but his all absorbing acquisitiveness stilt
influences him. To extract rrotn him a gift
for en orphanage or a church or a poor
woman who haa just been burnt out is an
achievement. ,
Dut the day ts coming for that penurious
Christian's departure from thv' world. He
has an awful struggle in giving up his
(iovernment securities. The attorney who
drew his last will and testament saw how
hard it was fur him to leave his farm nr
his storehouse or investment, especially
those that in the markets are railed gilt
edged. Thoe that yield only three Per
cent, he easily resigns to the eare of his
executors, but those that yield eight or
nine or ten ner cent., how can he give
hein up while the market is still rising?
IWi lnjud u in lied, knowing h -ha sot
to sign II. ne rean tne nocumcnt over afiVT
over again, and then, with a manner that
seem to say. "Well, if I must I must." he
sign his name to that surrender of his
last farthing of earthly possessions. He
enters heaven, but he has not an abundant
entrance.
' Hut that bring me to the other thought
of my text, that there are those who will
w-hen they leave this life bound into
henven anvil salutation infinite. "For nn
entrance shall be administered unto yon
abundantly." Such exaltnnt admission
wiil await those who cntrr heaven afler
on earth living a life for others and with
out reference to conspicuily,
I nkcd the manager of an innne asy
lum in Kentucky, "From what class of
persons do vou ret most of your pntirr's?"
and he snid, "From farmers' wives." I
nsked the same ones ion of the manager
of an insane asvlum in Pennsylvania and
the same ouestion of the manager of nn
insane asylum in M-'ssnrhusetts and got
the snme reply. "We have on onr. rolls
fur treatment more farmers' wives than
Persons roming from any other class."
That answer will he a surprise to aonie.
It was no surprise to me.
V ell. this man of- consecrated affluence
is about to go out of this world. He feels
in brain and nerve the strnin of the early
atrugilc bv which he won hi fortune,
and nf sixtv or seventy rears collapses un
der the erhnustiins of t'" twentiea and
thirties of his lifetime. When the morn
ing papers announce that he is gone there
is excitement Pot only on the avenues
where the mansions stand, but all through
the hospitals and asylums nnd the homes
of those who will hcnceforlh hnve no
helner. Rut the excitement of sadness nn
eirth is a verv tame affair compared with
the excitement of glndnes in heaven. The
guardian angel of that gocd man's life
swept bv hi dving pillow the night be
fore and on swift wing upward announced
that in a few hours he would arrive, and
there is a mighty stir in heaven. "He
comes!" cries seraph to seraph. The
King's hcrclds are at the gates to say,
"Come, ve blessed." and souls who were
saved through the churches that good
man supported nnd hundreds who went
up after being by him helped in their
pirthly stiwjle will come down off their
thrones anil out of their palaces and
through the streets to hail him into the
land which they reached some time before
through his Christian philanthropy. Now,
that is what I call an abundant entrance.
You se. it is not necessnry to be a failure
jp enrtn in order to be a success in henven.
I!"t 1 promise that all those who have
li-ed for others nnd been truly Christian,
whether on a largo senle or a email scale.
will have illustrious introduction into the
impcarled gateway. Here and there in
"nme large fnmily. you see an attractive
dnuehter who declines marriage that she
mnv take care nt father anil mother in old
ilnvs. J Ins is pot nn abstraction. I have
known such. You have probnoiy known
such. There nre in this world womanly
souls as bir ns thnt. Thev cheerfully eii
tbire the whimsicalities and otiernlousness
which sometimes .characterize the aged
anu waron pignta wnen pneumonia is
tprentened nnrt are eyes to the blind and
sit in e)ose rooms lest the septuagenarian
be chilled nnd count out the right number
of drops at the right time.
After years of Hlial fidelity on the part
of this self sacrificing daughter the old
folks go home. Now the daughter is free
from marital alliance, but the damask rose
in her clvek i faded, and the crow's feet
have left their mask on the fo-ehead. and
the gracefulness is gone out of the figure,
and the world calls her by a mean and
nngnllnnt name. Hut, mv'l.ord and my
iod. surely Thou wilt make it up for that
girl in heavenly reward! On all the banks
of the river of life there is no castle of
emerald nnd carbuncle richer than that
which awnits her. Its windows look right
out upon the King's park, and the white
horse of the chnriot are being harnessed
to meet her nt the gate, and if there nre
no others to meet her father and mother
will be there to thank her for all she did
for them when their strength fniled and
the grasshopper became a burden, nnd
tlicy will any: "My daughter, how kind
you were to us even until the last! How
good it is to be together in heaven! That
is the King's chariot coine for you. Mount
and ride to your everlasting home!" Now,
tnat ia what I call an abundant entrance.
Know right well that in whatever sta
tion of life you now move, and whether
your intellectual fuculty be brilliant or
duli. and your worldly resources opulent
nr poor, you may have at the gate of
heaven jubilant and triumphant reception.
All soldiers cannot be Hannihals and
Marlborough, all admirals eannot be Du
pouts nnd Farrnguts. all authors cannot
be liaeons and Southeys, neither can all
Christians he Pauls and Pichard Cecils.
I)o your best right where you are, asking
Cod's help, and you will not only win glo
rious admission, but you will make all
your life in heaven a grander and higher
life.
Oh, child of God, if you had never
thought of it before, I present the start
ling fact that you are now deciding not
only the style of your heavenly reception,
but the grade of your association and en
joyment of the world without end. Are
you satisfied with yourself that you can
afford to throw away raptures and ignore
heavenly possibilities and elect yourself to
lower status and classify yourself amid
the less elficient when you may mount a
higher heaven?
While I thus discourse I am aware that
some have not taken the first step toward
heaven, and they feel like Jacob St.-awn,
who took some milliliters of the gospel on
the top of his house to show his terms,
reaching in every direction as far as eye
could see. He was asked how many acres
he owned, and he replied, 40,000. "How
much is it worth per acre?" was asked,
and he replied, 'Titty dollars, at least.''
"Then." said the minister, "vou are worth
2,000,000." "Vcs," said St'rawn, "and 1
made it all myself." Then the minister
said, "You have shown me these earthly
possessions, and now will you look up yon
der," pointing to the heavens. "How
much do you own up there?" and Strawn
answered, with tears in his eyes. "Oh, I
am afraid I am poor up there. Alas,
how many there are who Lave acquired all
earthly prosperities and advantages, but
have no treasures in heaven. They are
poor up there.
But 1 am to day chiefly addressing those
who are started for heaven and would
have them know that while we are apt to
speak of a Lamphicr, tho founder of Ful
ton street prayer meetings, as having an
abundant entrance, and Thomas Welch
and Fletcher, the glorious preachers of the
gospel, as having an abundant eutr.tm-e.
you also, it you live and serve the Cord
mid lujlill your mission, whether it be ap
plauded ot unknown, will have when yur
work on earth is ended and you are culled
to come up higher an easy, a biisaiuJ, an
e."i')tui'iiig, au abundant entrance-.

One of our dear old Methodist
preachers tells thin ptory on himself.
"Nut long ago I undertook to fill the
pulpit of a brother who was ill. The
church wan in Virginia, nnd In the
congregation were Hevcral Worshlperx
of color, one as aged woman, a mammy,
looking so plctiu'i'sqiie In her bandana
and pinafore a particularly to attrnet
my attention. In presenting: the xub
Jii't of my discourse I remarked thnt
the eomnn ntatnr did not aKree with
me. whereupon thin old woman arose
and quietly wllpped nut of the church.
After the service 1 found her mantling

This picture tells its own story of sisterly affection. Tho
older girl, just budding into womanhood, has suffered great
ly with those irregularities and menstrual difficulties which
sap the life of so many young women.
Lydia E. Pinkham'8 Vegetable Compound can
always be relied upon to restore health to women who thuB
6uffer. It is a sovereign cure for the worst forms of femalo
complaints, that bearing-down feeling, weak back, falling
and displacement of the womb, inflammation of tho ovaries,
and all troubles of the uterus or womb. It dissolves and
expels tumors from the uterus in the early stage of develop
ment and checks any tendency to cancerous humors. It
subdues excitability, nervous prostration, and tones up tha
entire femalo system.
Could anything provo mora cls&vly tho ef
ficiency of Mrs. PStrkltam's fflctflclno than tho
following strong statement of Grzoo Stanstury?
"Dea.b Mas, Pinkiiam : I win a sufferer from female weakness for
about a year and a half. 1 have tried doctors nnd patent medicines, but
nothing1 helped me, I underwent tho horrors of local treatment, but re
ceived no benefit. My ailment was pronounced ulceration of the womb.

Connecticut, as "the wooden nutmeg
eitate, must loolt to Its laurels. Rel
filum counts among Its Industries the
manufacture of artificial nutmegs,
which ore found to consist of finely
ground extracted or Injured nutmegs,
mixed with about 20 per rent, of min
eral substances, nnd nre said to be to
cleverly made as almost, to defy detec
tion, especially when mixed with gen
uine kernels. The Imitation can be
detected by various tests. On being
cut the kernels lack the well-known
plant-like structure of the genuine;
they become soft when soaked In boil
ing water; on being burned they leave
iiljout IS per cent, of athes, Instead of
the usual 2 or 8 per rent., and they
are heavier than the genuine.

He was a poor but honest worklns
man on his way home in a Broadway
ear. As the car proceeded downtown
It was Oiled with passengers, and Boon
the aisle was crowded, some swinging
'tin the straps. The laborer got up from
nis seat, touched his hat and motioned
to a well-dressed lady to take it.

No depravity at all, woman, no de
pravity at all." and he wondered why
everybody smiled.
