"At eventlme It shall be light." This prophecy will be fulfilled In the even Ing ol Christian sorrow. For a long time II Is broad daylight. The sun rldea high. In numerable activities go ahead with a thou sand feet nnd work with a thousand arm, and the pi-.'kax struck a mine, and the bat tery made a discovery, and the Investment yielded Its 20 per cent, and the book came t Its twentieth edition, nnd the farm quad rupled in value, and the sudden fortuns hoisted to bigb position, and ohlldren wen firaised, and friends without number swarmed nto the family hive, and nronnfitv asmr In the music and stepped in the dance and ' glowed In the wine and ate at the banquet, I and all the gods of music and ease and gratl- 1 flcation gnthered around this Jupiter hold ing In bis hands so many thunderbolts ol power. But even' sun must set, and the brightest day must have Its twilight. Bnddcnly ths sky was overcast. The fountain dried up. The song hushed. The wolf broke into the family fold nnd carried oft the best lamb. A deep howl of won came crashing down through the Joyous symphonies. At one rough twang of the hand of disaster tbe harp string all broke. I 'own went the strong business firm ! Away weut long established credit ! Up How a nook of calumnies ! The new book would not sell. A patent could not be secured for the invention. Rtockt sank like lend. The Insurance company ex ploded. "How much," says the sheriff, "will you bid for this piano?" "How much for this library V" "How much for this family picture V Will the grace ol God hold one tip In such rircumstiin'-esV W hat have become of the great multitude of Ood's children who have been pounded ol the flail and crushed under tho wheel and trampled under the hoof ' Did tbey lie down In the dust weeping, wailing and gnashing their teeth' When the rod of fatherly chastisement struck them, did they strike tmckV Cecaust they found one bitter cup on the table of Clod's supply, did they upset tbe whole table?

Did they bemoan their thwarted plan and say, "The stocks are down would Mod I were dead?" Did the night of their disaster come upon them moonless, starless, dark and howllrg, smothering and choking their live out? No! No' No'. At eventlme It was Ht-'ht. The swift promises overtook them. The eternal constellations from the circuit about Ood throne poured down an Infinite Inner. Under their shlnlrig the billows of tro.uhle took on crests and plumes of gold and jaspar and amethyst and flame. All the trees of life rustled in the midsummer air of God's love. The night blooming assurance of Christ's sympathy filled all the atmos phere with heaven. The soul at every step seemed to start up from its feet bright Winged Joys warbling heavenward. "It is good that I have been afflicted,'1 cries David. "The Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away." exclaims Job. "sorrow ful, yet always rejoicing," says St. Paul. "And God shall wipe sway all tears from their eyes," exclaims John In apocalyptic vision. At eventlme It was light. Light from the cross ! Right from tha promises 1 Light from the throne I Htreatning, joyous, outgusbing, everlasting light I Tbe text shall also find fulfillment In tha time of old age. It is a grand thing to be young -to have the sight olear and tbe hear ing acute and the step elastic and all our pulses marching on to the drumming of a tout heart. Midlife and old age will be de Died many of us, but youth wo all know what that Is. Those wrinkle were not al ways on your brow. That snow was not al ways on yonr nead. That brawny muscle did not always bunoh your arm. ion have not always worn spectacles. Grave and dig nified aa you now are, you onoa went coast ing down tbe hillside, or threw off your bat lor the race, or sent the ball flying sky high. But youth will not always last. It stays only long enough to give us exuberant spir its, and broad shoulder for burden carry ing, and an arm with whUtj to battle. our way through difficulties. Life's path' if you fellow it long enough will come under frown ing orag and across trembling causeway, blessed old age if you let it coma naturally, lou eannot hide it. You may try to cover tha wrinkles, but you cannot cover tha wrinkle. If the time has coma for you to tie old, be not ashamed to be old. Tha grandest things In all the universe are old. Old mountains, old riven, old seas, old Mara and an old eternity. Then do not be ashamed to be old unless you an older than the mountains and older than tha stars.
