THE ENTERPRISE, WEDNESDAY JULY H, 1889. HOW TO CONQUEB. : Benson by Rev. T. be Witt Tai mage, D. D. I V ' Rs Shows tha Way Out of Sin Tuto Uil Paths of Rlfhtcoa.neei Tho Worst : - Obataclaa la (ha W.jr aro Evil . Hablta and Society. Rev. T. DeWltt Tatmaze preached ser. mon recently at Lake Maxlnkuckee. Ind.. n the subjects "How to Conquer." The ten was: "Wnen shall I awaket I will seek It yet again." Pror. xxlll 85. The eloquent preacher spoke as follows: ' With aa Insight Into human .nature such as no other man aver reached, Bolomon, in my text, sketohea the mental operations of one who, having stepped aside from the oath of rectitude, desires- to return, . With wish for something better, he said : "When shall I awakel When shall I come out of this horrid nightmare of Iniquity!" Bat. seixed upon by uneradicated habit, and forced down hUl by his passions, he cries oat: "I will seek It yet again. I will try it once more." Our libraries are adorned with an eleirant literature addressed to young men, pointing out to them all the dangers and perils of life complete maps of the voyage, showing 111 the rocks, quicksands, the shoals. But suppose a man has already made shipwreck; - suppose he is already off the track; suppose hejhas already gone astray. How Is he to get DacKi -That la a Held comparatively un touched. I propose to address myself to sach. There are those in this audience who, with every passion Of their agonized souL are ready to hear sach a dissuasion. They compare themselves with what they were ten years ago, and cry out from the bondage In which they are incarcerated. Now, U f there be any here, some with an earnest ' purpose, yet feeling they are beyond the pale of Christian sympathy, and that the sermon can hardly be expected to address them. then, at this moment, I give them my right (and and call them brother. Lookup! There is a glorious and triumphant hope for you yet I sound the trumpet of gospel deliver- anoe. ,Tbe church Is ready to spread a ban quet at your return,' and the hlerarchs of heaven to fall Into line of bannered proces sion at the news of your emancipation. Bo lar as uod. may help me, I propose to show what are the obstacles of your return, and "' then how you are to surmount those ob stacles. The first difficulty In the way of your return Is the force of moral gravitation. Just as there is a natural law which brings down to the earth any thing you throw Into uio air, so mere is a corrosponaing moral gravitation. In other words, It Is easier to go down than it Is to go up; it is easier to do wrong than it Is to do right Call to mind tha oomrailaa tit inup Knvhnmt Jin-Mmi of them good, some of them bad which most affeatid you 1 4 Call to mind the anec-: dotes that Jpu, have btard in the hist Ave or ten years-some of them are pare and some of them Impure. Which the more easily sticks to your memory! During the years of your Ufa you have formed oertaln courses of , eoaduct some of them good, some of them bad.-' To which style of habit did you the more tasOy yield! Ah, my Mends, we have to take but a moment of self Inspection to find out that there is In all our souls a force of moral gravitation I But that gravi tation may be resisted, Just as you may pick up from the earth some thing and hold ' it In your hand toward heaven, Just so, by the power of God's grace a soul fallen may be lifted toward peace, toward pardon, to ward heaven. Force of moral gravitation 111 every one of us, but power In God's grace to overcome that force of moral gravitation. The next thing In the way of your return . Is tha power of evil habit I know there are those who ssy It Is very essy for them to give up evil hablta. I do not believe them. Hot is a man given to Intoxication. He knows it Is disgracing his family, de stroying his property, ruining him, body, mind, and souL If that man, being an In telligent man, and loving his family, could easily give up that habit would he not do sol The fact that he does not give it up proves that it Is hard to give It up. It Is a very easy thing to sail down stream, the tide carrying you with great force; but suppose you turn the boat up stream, Is it so easy then to row it! As long as we yield to the evil Inclinations in our hearts and our bad habits we are sailing down stream; but the moment we try to turn we put our boat In the rapids Just above Niagara and - try to row up stream. Take a man given to the habit of using tobacco, as most of you do, and let him resolve to stop and he finds it very difficult Twenty-seven years ago , I quit that habit and I would as soon dare to put my right hand In the fire as once to Indulge in It Why! Because It was such a struggle to get over it Now, let a man be advised by his physician to give up the use of tobacco. He goes around not knowing what to do with himself. He can , not add np a line of figures. He can not sleep nights. It seems as if the world had turned upside down. He feels his business Is going to ruin. Where he was kind and obliging he Is scolding and freWul. The ' composure that characterised him has given way to a fretful restlessness, and he has be come a complete fidget What power Is it that has rolled a wave of woe over the earth and shaken a portent In the heavens! He has tried to stop smokingorchewingl After while he says. "I am going to do as I please. The doctor doesn't understand my case. I'm going back to my old habit." ' And he returns. Every thing assumes it usual composure, His business seems to brighten. The world becomes an attractive place to live In. His children, seeing the difference, hail the return of their father's genial disposition. Whst wave of color has dashed blue Into the sky, and greenness into the mountain foliage, and the glow of sap phire Into the sunset! What enchantment has lifted a world of beauty and Joy on his ' soul! He has gone back to tobacco I Oh, the fact ia, as we all know la our own experience, that habit is a taskmaster; as long as we obey It it does not chastise us; but lot us resist and we find we are to be lashed with scorpion whips and bound with ship cable, and thrown into the track of bone breaking Juggernauts I During the war of 1812 there was a ship sot on fire Just above Niagara Falls, and then, cut loose from Its .' moorings, itcameondown through the night and tossed over the falls. Itrwas said to have been a scene brilliant beyond all description. Well, there are thousands of men on fire of evil habit, coming down through the rapids . and through the awful night of temptation toward the eternal plunge. Oh I how hard It Is to arrest them. Uod only can arrest them. ' Buppose a man after five, or ton, or twen ty years of evil doing, resolves to do right! Why, all the forces of dsrkness are allied against blm. He can not sleep nights. He gets down on his knees in the midnight and cries: "God help me!" He bites his lips. He grinds his teeth. He clenches his fist in his determination to keep his purpose. He dare not look at the bottles in too window of wine store. It was one long, bitter, exhaustivehand-to-hand fight with Inflamed, tantalising and morolloss habit When he thinks he Is entirely free, the old inclina tions pounce upon htm like a pack of bounds with their rormlos tearing away taVtbe flanks of one poor rolndoer. In Paris there is a sculptured reoresontotlon of Bacchus., the god of revelry. " He h rldlna'on'a Dao- ther at full leap. Oh 1 how suggestive) Let very one-who is speeding 00 oad, ways un derstand he Is not rldiag a docile and well oroKen steoa, but he la riding a monster, wild and bloodthirsty, coins- at a death lean. How many there are who resolve on a bet ter life and say: "When shall I awake!" But, seized on by their old habits, cry: "I will try It once more; I will seek It yet again:" Tears ago there were some Prince ton students who were skating, and the ice was very thin, and some one warned the company back from the air hole, and finally warned them entirely to leave the place. But one young man with bravado, after all the rest had stopped, cried out: "One round more." He swept around and wont down, and was brought out a corpse. My friends, there are thousands and tens of thousands of men losing their souls In that way. It Is ths one round more. I hsve also- to say! that if a man wants to return from evil practices society repulses him. Desiring to reform, he says : "Now I will shake off my old associates, and I will nna Christian companionship." And he ap pears at the church door some Sabbath day, and the usher greets him with a look, as much as to say: "Why, you here! You are the last man I ever expected to see at church! Come, take this seat right down by the door I" Instead of saying: "Good morning; I am glad you are here. Come. I will give you a first rate seat, right up by the pulpit" : Well, . the prodigal, not yet discouraged, enters the prayer mooting, - and . some- .Christian man, with more zeal than common sense, says: "Glad to see you, the dying thief was saved. and I suppose there is merey for you 1" The young man, disgusted, chilled, throws him self back On his dignity, resolved he will never enter the house of Ood again. Per haps sot quite fully discouraged about ref ormation he sides up by some highly re spectable man he used to know going down the street, and immediately the respectable man has an errand down some other street I Well, the prodigal, wishing to return, takes some member of a Christian association by the hand, or tries to. The Christian young man looks at him, looks at the faded ap parel and the marks of dissipation, and in stead of giving him warm grip of the band offers him the tip end of the long fin gers of the left band, which is equal to sinning a man m the laoe. . O, how few Christian people understand how much foroe and gospel there is in good, honost handshaking 1 Sometimes when you have felt the need of encourage ment and some Christian man has taken you heartily Dy the hand, have you not felt that thrilling through every fiber of your body, mind and soul, an encouragement that was Just what you needed! You do not know any thing at all about this unless you know when a man tries to return from evil courses of conduct he runs against repul sions innumerable. We say of some man. he lives a block or two rrom the church, or half mile from the church. There are peo ple In our crowded oitias who 1 live a thou sand miles fionv the, church. . Vast deserts of indifference between them and the house of God. The fact Is, we must keep our re spectability, though thousands and tons of thousands perish. Christ sat with publicans and sinners. But if there cornea to the house of God' man with marks of dissipation about him, people throw up their hsnds in horror, as much as to say, "Isn't It shock ing P' - How these dainty, fastidious Chris tians In all our churches are going to get Into Heaven I don't know, unless they have an especial train of cars, cushioned snd up holstered, each one a oar to himself I They can not go with the great herd of publicans and sinners. O, ye, who ourl your lip of scorn at the fallen, I tell you plainly, If you had been surrounded by the same Influences, Instead of sitting to-day amid the cultured. and the refined and the Christian, yon would hsve been a crouching wretch in stable or ditch, covered with filth and abomination I It Is not because you are naturally any bet ter, but becansa the mercy of God has pro tected you. Who are you, that brought up in Christian circles, and watched by Chris tian parentage, yoj should be so hard on the fallen! I think men also are often hindered from return by the faot that churches are too anx ious about their membership and too anxious about their denomination, and they rush out when they see a man about to give up bis sin and return to God, and ask him how he is going to be baptized, whether by sprinkling or by immersion, and what kind of a church he is going to Join. O, my friends I It is a poor time to talk about Presbyterian cate chisms, and Episcopal liturgies and Metho dist love feasts, and baptisteries to a man that is eoming out of the darkness of sin into the glorious light of the Gospel. Why, It reminds us of a man drowning in the sea, and a lifeboat puts out for him, and the man In the boat says to the man out of tha boat: "Now, if I get you ashore, are you going to live In my street!" First get him ashore, and then talk about the non-essentials of religions. Who cares what church he Joins, If he only Joins Christ and starts for Heaven! O, you ought to have, my brother, an Illuminated face, and a hearty grip for every one that tries to turn from his evil way. Take hold of the same book with him, though his dissipations shake the book, remembering that he that con vertetb a sinner from the error of his waya shall save a soul from death, and hide multitude of sins. - Now I have shown you these obstacles be cause I want you to understand I know all the difficulties In the way; but I am now to toll you how Hannibal may scale the Alps, and how the shsckles may be unrivetod, and how the paths of virtue forsaken may be regained. First of all, my brother, throw yourself on God. Go to Him, frankly and earnestly toll Him these habits you have, and ask Him, if there is any help In all the resources of omnipotent love, to give It you. Do not go with a long rigmarole people call prayer, made up of "ohs" and "shs," and "forever and forever amensl" Go to God and ory for help! help! help! and if you can not cry for help, Just look and live. I remember In the war I was at Antletam, and 1 went into the hospitals after the battle, and I said to a man, "Where are you hurt!" He made no answer, but held ty his arm swollen and splintered. I ssw where he wss hurt The simple fact is, when a man has a wounded soul, all he has to do Is to hold it up before a sympathetic Lord and get It healed. It does not take sny long prayer. Just hold up the wound. O, It it no small thing when a man Is nervous and weak and exhausted, coming from his evil ways to feel that God puts two omnipotent arms around about him and says, "Young man, I will stand by you I The mountains may depart, and the hills may be removed, but I will never fail you." And then, as the soul thinks tha news Is too good to be true, and can not be lieve It and looks up In God's face, God lifts His right hand and takes an oath, an affi davit saying, "As I live, salth the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth." Blessed be uod lor sucn uospei astnisi Cut the slices thin," said the wife to the husband, "or there will not be enough to go all around for tho ohlldren; out the allocs thin." Blessed be God, there Is a full loaf for every one that wants it; bread enough and to spare. No thin siloes at the Lord's tablet I remember when tha Master Street Hospital, in 1'blladolphla, was opened dur ing the' war," A telegram came saylngt There wilt- be three hundred of them," and from"r chirrc&-1fter?WTOr twenty or thirty - men and women to look after these poor wounded follows. As they came, some from one parf of the land, some from another, no . one asked whether this man was from Oregon, or from Massa chusetts, or from Minnesota, or from New York. There was a wounded soldier, and the only question was how to take off the rags most geutly, and put on the bondage, and administer the cordial. And when a soul comes to God He' does not ask where you come from or what A' our ancestry was. Healing for all your wounds. Pasdon for all your guilt Comfort for all your troubles, Then, also, I counsel you, If you want to get back, to quit all your bad associations. One unholy Intimacy will fill your soul with moral distemper. In all the ages of the church there has not been an instance where a man kept one evil associate and was reformed. Among the fourtoen hun dred million of the race, not -one Instance. Go . home to-day, open your desk; take out letter paper, stamps, and envelope, ana then write a letter something like this "My Old Companions: I start this day for Heaven. Until I am persuaded you will Join me in wis, lareweu." Then sign your name, and send the letter with the first post Give up your bad com panions, or give up Heaven. It is not ten bad companions that destroy a man, nor five bad companions, nor three bad companions. but one. What chance is there for that young man I saw along the street four or five young men with him, halting In front of a grog shop, urging him to go in, he re sisting, violently resisting, until after awhile they forced him to go in! It was a summer night and the door was left open, and I saw the process. They held him fast and they put the cup to his Hps, and they forced down the strong drink. What chance Is there for such a young man! . I counsel you also seek Christian advice.' Every Christian man Is bound to help yen, First of all, seek God; then seek Christian counsel. Gather up all the energies of body. mind and soul, and, appealing to God for success, declare this day everlasting war against all drinking habits, all gambling practices, ail nouses of sin. Half-and-half work will amount to nothing; it most be Waterloo. Shrink back now and you are lost Push on and you are saved. A P par- tan general fell at the very moment of Vic tory, but be dipped his finger In his own blood and wrote on a rock near which he wasdylng, "Sparta has conquered." Though your struggle to get rid of sin may seem to be almost a death struggle, you can dip your finger in your own blood and write on the Rock of Ages, "Victory through our Lord Jesus Christ" ' w- -' O, what glorious news It would be for some of these young men to send home to their parents. They go to the post-offloe every day or two to see whether there are any letters from you. ' How anxious they are to hear. ' Borne one said to a Grecian general: "What was the proudest moment in your lifer' Ha thought a moment and said : "The proudest moment In my life was when I sent word home to myjparcnts that I had gained the vic tory." And the proudest and most brilliant moment in your life will be the moment when you can send word to your parents that yon have conquered your evil hablta by the grace of God and become eternal victor. O, de spise not parental anxiety! The time will come when you will have neither father aor mother, and you will go around the place where they used to watch you and find them gone from the house, and gone from tha field, and gone from the neighborhood. Cry aa loud for forgiveness as you may over the mound In the churchyard, they will not answer. Deadl Deadl And then you will take out the white lock of hair that was out from your mother's brow Just before they buried her, and you will take the cane with which - your father used to walk, and yon will think and think and wish that you had done Just as they wanted you to, and would give the world If you hsd never thrust a pang through their ' dear old hearts. God pity the poor young man who has brought disgrace on his father's name! God pity the young man who has broken his mother's heart! Better if he bad never boon born better if, In the first hour of his life, Instead of being laid against the warm bosom of maternal tenderness, he hsd been coffined and sepulchered. There Is no balm powerful enough to heal the heart of one who has brought parents to a sorrowful grave, and who wanders about through the dismal cemetery, rending the hair, and wringing the hands, and crying, "Mother! mother 1" O, that to-day by all the memo ries of the past and by all the hopes of tha future, you would yield your heart to God. May your father's God and your mother's God be your God forever! MARVELOUS COURAGE. Bow an Humble Bar Saved the Day at Waterloo. The Duke of Wellington waa once asked who, In his opinion, was the bravest man at Waterloo! "I can't toll you that," he said, "but I can toll you of one than whom I am sure there waa no braver." The following la the story put in the wonls of the writer: - "There was a private In the artillery. A farm-house, with an orchard surrounded by a thick hedge, formed a most important point in the British position, and was or dered to be held against the enemy at any sacrifice. The hottest of the battle raged around this point, but the English behaved well, and beat back the French again and again. "At last tha powder and ball were found to be running short; at the same time the hedges surrounding the orchard took fire. In the meantime a messenger had been sent to the rear for more powder and ball, and In a short time two loaded wagons came galloping down to the farm house, the gal lant defenders of which were keeping up a scanty fire through the flames which sur rounded the post The driver of the first wagon spurred his struggling horses through the burning neap; but the flames rose florcely round snd caught the powder, which exploded, sending rider, horses and wagon In fragments Into the air. For one instant the driver of the second wagon paused, appalled by his comrade's fate, tha next observing that the flames beaten back for a moment by the explosion afforded him one desperate chance, be tent his horses at the smoldering breach, and amid the cheers of the garrison, landed his cargo safely within. Behind him the flames closed up and raged more fiercely than ever. This private never lived to receive the reward which his set merited, but later in the en gagement ha was killed, dying with the con aolousness that he had saved the day. Lon don Times. 1 a 1 1 Men somotimes think their lot to be a very hard one in this world, and even com plain against the providence of God sa a sort of cruelty to them. If these same per sons would thoughtfully study ths meroles with which God has crowned tholrdays, they would soon discover that they have more mercies for which to thank Him than evils of which' to oomplaln. If they would carefully examine what they cell evils, they would alto see a great many things In this list that are evils only in appearance, and are really "mercies in disguise." Much of the petulance of human nature with Provi dence would be cured by such healthful moditation.N. Y. Independent To rule one's aniter is well: to craveni ties power, au warns.
