THE BURLINGTON FEEE PRESS, THURSDAY, JULY 21, 1898. 33 ONE LIFE IS ENOUGH. A SECOND JOURNEY WOULD SURELY BE A FAILURE. Potash lOr. Tnlmago Sliuns tho Importance of Present Opportunities I.cMom Drawn From Different Kinds of I.Ivcb Itlloys to Mark the Right Channel. Copyright, 1S9S, by American Tress Asso elation. Washington, July 17. This dlscnurso of Dr. Tnlmngo extols our present oppor tunities so that moro opportunities than wo enjoy In this llfo do not sooni desirable; tho text, Job II, I, "All tlmt 11 man hath will ho glvo for his llfo." Thut Is tyitruo. Tho Lord did not sny It, but sntu'l said It to tho Lord when tho evil ouo wanted .Tob still moro afflicted. T,bo record is, "So wont satnn forth from tho prcsonco of tho Lord and sinoto Job with soro bolls." And satnn hs been tho Diithor of all eruptive dlsonso slnco then, and ho hopes by poisoning tho blood to poison tho soul. Hut tho result of tho di abolical experiment which left Job victor proved tho falsity of tho satanlo remark, "All that a man hath will ho rIvo for his llfo." Many a captain who has stood on tho brldgo of tho steamer till his passen gers got oft nnd ho drowned, many an engineer who has kept his hand on tho throttlo valvo or his foot on tho brako un til tho most of tho train was saved whllo ho went down to death through tho open drawbrldgo, many a llrcnmn who plunged Into n blazing houso to get n slocplug child out, the llrcnmn sacrificing i Ills llio In tho attempt, and tho thousands of martyrs who submitted to llory stnko nnd knlfo of massacre and headman's ax and gutllottno rather than surrender prin ciple, proving that In many a caso my text was not trua when It says, "All that a man hath will ho glvo for his llfo." lJttt satan's falsehood was built on n truth. Llfo Is very precious, and If wo would not glvo up all thero aro many things wo would surrender rather than surrender It. Wo see how precious llfo Is from tho fact that wo do everything to prolong It. Hcnco nil srinltary regula tions, all study of hygiene, all fear of drafts, all waterproofs, all doctors, oil medicines, all struggle In crisis or acci dent. An admiral of tho llrltish navy was court mnrtlaled for turning his ship around In tlmo of danger, and so damag ing tho ship. It was proved against him, but when his tlmo camu to bo heard ho Mid: "Gentlemen, I did turn tho ship around and admit that It was damaged, but do you want to know why I turned It? Thero was a man overboard, and I wanted to savo lilm, and I did save hlm, and I consider tho llfo of ono sailor worth all tho vessels of tho British navy. " No won der ho was vindicated, Llfo Is Indeed very precious. Yea, rhcro nro thoso who deem llfo so precious they would llko to repeat It. Thoy would llko to try It over again. They would llko to go back from 70 to (10, from 00 to 00, from 00 to 40, from 40 to 30 and from U0 to 20. I proposo for very practlcul and useful purposes, as will ap pear lieforo I got through, to discuss tho question wo havo all asked of others and others havo ngaln and again asked of us, Would you llko tollvoyourlifoover again!1 Whnt Is Pncccis? Tho fact Is that no Intelligent nnd rlirht feeling man is satisfied with his past llfo. However successful your llfo may havo been, you r.ro not satisfied with It. What is success? Ask that question of a hun dred different men, and they will glvo a hundred different answers. Ono man will t-uy, "Sucross is $1,000,000." Another will say, "Success Is worldwldo publicity." "Another will say, "Success Is gaining that which you started for." lint as it is a freo country I glvo my own dellnltlon and say, "Success Is fulfilling tho particu lar mission upon which you were tent, whether to wrlto a constitution or invent, a new stylo of wheelbarrow or tako caro of n sick child." Do what God calls you to do, and you nro a success, whether you your previous Journey of llfo stirred yout healthful ambition or gavo you plcasurablo Burprlso or led you Into happy Interroga tion would only call forth from you a dls gustod"Oh, pshaw 1" You would bo blase at 30. and a inlsanthrotio at 40. and unen durable-nt BO.

I walked through n great city with a frlond and two guldos, and thero woro In nil tho city only four persons, ami they woro thoso of our own group. Wo went up nnd down tho strcots. Wo entered tho houses, tho museums, tho temples, tho theaters. Wo cxanilnod tho wonderful pictures on tho walls and tho most exquisite moSnlo on tho floor. In tho streets wero tho deep worn ruts of wagons, but not a wagon in tho city. On tho front steps of mansions tho word "Wei como" in Latin, but no human being to greet us. Tho only bodies of any of tho citizens that wo saw wcro petrified and In the museum at tho gates.

Besides that, would you want to risk tho temptations of llfo over agalu? From tho fact that yon aro hero I conclude- that, though In many rayiccts your llfo may havo been unfortunate and unconsecrnted, you havo got on so far tolerably well, If nothing moro than tolcrablo. As for my self, though my llfo bus boon far from be ing as consecrated to God as I would llko to havo hod it, I would not want to try It over agnln, lest next tlmo I would do worse. Why, just look nt tho toinptntlons wo havo all passed through and just look nt tho multitudes who havo gono completely under! Just rail, over tho roll of your schoolmate and college mntcs, tho clerks who were with you In tho tamo storo ot bank or tho operatives In tho samo factory with just as good prospects as you, whe have conio to coniplcto mishap.

If tho proposi tion wcra made, I think many thousands would uccopt It. That fooling caused tho ancient search for what was colled tho fountain of youth, th waters of which, taken, would turn tho hair of tho octogenarian Into tho curly looks of a hoy, anil, however old a person who drank at that fountain, ho would bo young agnln. Tho Island was 6ald to belong to tho group of Hahnmos, but lay far out In tho ocean. t Tho great Spanish explorer, Junn Pone'o do Loon, follow voyager of Columbus, I havo no doubt felt that if ho could discover that fountain of youth ho would do as much as his frlond had dono in discovering America. So ho put out in IBIS from I'orto Ilico and cruised about among tho Uahnmns in search of that fountain. I am glad ho did not find it. Thero is no such fountain. Hut If thero wero, and Its wa ters woro bottled up and sont abroad at 11,000 a bottlo, tho demand would bo greater than, tho supply, and many a man who has como through a llfo of usclcssncss nnd porhnps sin to old ago would bo shak ing up tho poton$. liquid, and If ho woro directed totnkotmlyn tenspoonful after each meal would bo so anxious to'inaka miro work ho would tako u tablespoonful, nnd If directed to tnko a tnblospoouful Would tako a glassful.

Well, if your grand father llvod his llfo over again, and your father lived his llfo over again, and you llvod your llfo ovor again, what a clutter ed up placo this world would bo n plaeo filled with mlscrnbla attempts at repairs. I begin to think that It Is bettor for each generation to havo only ono ohanco, nnd then for thorn to pass oil and glvo another gonoratlon a chance, Besides that, if wo woro permitted to llvo llfo ovor agnin, It would bo a stalo and stupid oxperlonco.

Now, suppose you wont back in your earthly llfo 30 years or 10 years or fiU years, what an awful past ponomontof tho tlmo of reunion I It would bo as though you wero going to San Fran cisco to n great banquet, and you got to Oakland, four or fhv miles this stdo of It, and then cama back to Baltimore to got a better start, as though you woro going to Kuglnud to bo crowned, and, having oomo In sight of tho mountnlns of Wales, you put back to Sandy Hook In order to muko a better voyago. Would you llko for many years to adjourn tho songs of heaven, to adjourn tho thrones of heaven, to adjourn tho companionship of hcavon, to adjourn tho rest of heaven, to adjourn tho presenoa ot Christ in heaven?

As soon as a ship captain strikes a rock in tho lako or sen ho reports it, and n buoy Is swung over that reef, and mariners henceforth stnnd off from thnt rock.

Tho best way to atono for imst indolence or ii.ist transgression Is by future assiduity, Yet wo often find Christlau men who wcro not converted until they wero 40 or CO, ns old ago comes on, saying, "Well, my work Is about done, and It is time for mo to rest." They irnvo 40 years of their llfo to satnn and tho world, ft llttlo frag mont of their llfo to God, oud now they want rest. Whether Unit belongs to como dy or tragedy I say not. Tho man who gavo ono half of his early existence to tho world nnd ot tho remain Ing two quarters ono to Christian work nnd tho other to ro3t would not, I suppose get a very brilliant reception In heaven. If thero nro nny dried leaves In heaven, thoy would bo appropriate for his garland, or If thero Is any throne with broken ktcps, it would lio anproprlato for his coronation, or any harp with relaxed string, It would bo npproprlato for his lingering.

I would llko to put one sentence of my ser mon in Italics and have It underscored and threo exclamation points nt tho end of tho sentence nnd that sentenco is this: As wo cnnti'it llvo our lives over again, tho nearest wo can como to ntono for tho pas' is by redoubled holiness and Industry lu tho future.

Ynnr Own Application. As I supposed It would bo, thero nro young people on whom this subject hns acted with tho forco of a galvanic battery, Without my saying a word to thorn, they havo soliloquized, saying: "As ono cannot llvo his llfo over ngaln and I can make onlv ono trip I must look out nnd mako uo mistakes. I havo but ono ohanco, und I must, mnko tho mot of It." My young friends, I nm glnd yon mado this nppllca tlon of tho sorinon yourself. When a mln ister toward tho close of his sermon says 'Now, a fow words by way of applica tion," pooplo begin to look around for their lints and get their arm through ouo slcovo of tholr overcoats, and tho seruionlo application Is u failure. I am glnd you havo mndo your own application, and that you nro resolved, llko a ljunkor ot whom rend years ago, who in substance said, ' shall bo along this path of life but once, and so I must do nil tho kindness I can and all tho good I can." My hearers, tho mistakes or youth can novor bo corrected, llmo gono is gono forever.
