TALMAGE'S SERMON.
Lessons to be Drawn From the
Philippian Earthquake.
Tit* Crr of th* .Tall*r of Old Antwrrfd bj
Practical Illustration*—Th* K«
ply Made Then Fquallj
AppUeahle Now.
The following sermon by Rev. T. Do
Witt Talmage was prepared for do
livery in London on his return trip from
tho Holy Land, his text being:
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou
■ halt be saved.—Arts xvi., 31.
Jails are dark, dull, damp, loathsome
places even now; but they were worse
in the apostolic times. I imagine to
day wc are standing in tho Philippian
dungeon. Do you not feel the chill?
Do you not hear the groan of those in
carcerated ones who for ten years have
pot seen the sunlight, and tho deep sigh
of women who rememlior their father's
house, and mourn over their wasted es
tates? Listen again. It is the cough
of the consumptive, or the struggle of
one in a nightmare of a great horror.
You listen again, and hear a culprit, his
chains rattling as he rolls over in his
dreams, and you say: “God pity the
prisoner.*’ But thero is another sound
in that prison. It is a song of joy and
gladness. What a place to sing in! The
music comes winding through tho corri
dors of tho prison, and in all tho dark
wards the whisper is heard: “What’s
that? What's that?”
It is the song of Paul and Silas. They
can not sleep. They havo been
whipped, very badly whipped. The long
gashes on their backs are bleeding yet.
They lie flat on the cold ground, their
feet fast in wooden sockets, and of course
they can not sleep. But they can sing.
Jaiier, what are you doing with these
people? Why have they been put in
here? O, they have been trying tomake
the world better. Is that all? That is
all. A pit for Joseph. A lion’s cave
for Daniel. A blazing furnace for Sliad
rach. Clubs for John Wesley. An anath
ema for Philip Molancthon. A dun
geon for Paul and Silas. But whilo we
are standing in tho gloom of that
rhilippian dungeon, and we hear the
mingling voices of sob, and groan, and
blasphemy, and hallelujah, suddenly an
earthquake! The iron bars of the prison
twist, tho pillars crack oil, tho solid
masonary begins to heave and rock till
all the doors swing open, and tho walls
fall with a terrible crash. Tho jailer,
feeling himself rosponsiblo for these
prisoners, and feeling suicide to be hon
orable—since Brutus killed himself, and
Cato killed himself, and Cassius killed
himself—puts his own sword to his own
heart, proposing with ono strong, keen
thrust to put an end to tho excitement
and agitation.
But Paul cries out: “Stop! stop! Do
thyself no harm. We aro all here.”
Then I see the jailer running through
tho dust and amid the ruin of that
prison, and I seo him throwing himself
down at the feet of those prisoners, cry
ing out: “What shall I do? What shall
1 do?" Did Paul answer: “Get out of
this place before there is another earth
quake; put handcuffs and hobbles on
those other prisoners, lest they get
away?” No word of that kind. Com
pact, thrilling, tremendous answer; an
swer memorable all through earth and
Heaven:
lielieve on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou
Shalt bo saved.
Well, we have all read of the earth
quake in Lisbon, in Lima, in Aleppo
and in Caraccas; but we live in a lati
tude w»*.ere, in all our memory, there
has not been one severe volcanic dis
turbance. And yet we havo seen fifty
earthquakes. Hero is a man who has
been building up a largo fortune. His
bid on the money market was felt in all
tflie cities. He thinks ho has got be
yond all annoying rivalries in trade,and
ho says to h'mself:
“Now I am free and safe from all pos
sible perturbation.” But a national
panic strikes tho foundations of the
commercial world, and crash! goes all
that magnificent business establish
ment. He is a man who lias built-up a
very beautiful home. Ilis daughters
have just come home from tho seminary
with diplomas of graduation. His sons
have started in life honest, temperate
and pure. When the evening lights I
art* Htruun muro n iiapi-ry auu uu
broken family circle. Ilut thero has
been an accident down at tho beach.
The young man ventured too far out in
the surf. The telegraph hurled tho
terror up to the city. An earthquake
Btruck under tho foundation of that
beautiful home. Tho piano closed, tho
curtains dropped, tho laughter hushed.
Crash! go all those domestic hopes, and
prospects, and expectations. So, my
friends, we have all felt tho shaking
down of some great trouble, and there
was a time when wo were as much ex
cited as this man of the text, and vce
cried out as he did:
“What shall 1 do? What shall I do?”
The same reply that the apostle made
to him is appropriate to us:
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, und thou
ehalt be saved.
There are some documents of so little
importance that you do not care to put
any more than j*our last name under
them, or even your initial, but thore
are some documents of so great impor
tance that you write out your full name.
So the Saviour in some parts of the Bi
ble is called “Lord,” and in other parts
of the Bihle He is called "Jesus,” and
in other parts of tho Bible He is called
“Christ,” but that there might be no
mistake about this passage, all three
names come in together—“the Lord
Jesus Christ.”
Now, who is this being that you want
me to trust in and believe in? Men
sometimes come to me with credentials
and certificates of good character; but I
can not trust them. There is some
dishonesty in their looks that makes me
know that I shall be cheated if I confide
In them. You can not put your heart’s
confidence in a man until you know
what stuff he is made of, and am I un
reasonable this morning when I stop to
ask you who that is that you want me
to trust in? No man would think of
venturing his life on a vessel going out
to sea that had never been inspected.
No, you must have the certificate hung
amidships, telling how many tons it
carries, and how long ago it was built,
and who built it, and all about it. A nd
you can not expect me to risk the cargo
of my immortal interests on board any
craft till you tell me what it is made of,
and where it was made, and what it is.
When, then, 1 ask you who this is you
want me to trust in, you tell me He was
a very attractive person. You tell me
that the cotemporary writers desoribe
Him, and they give the color of His
eyes, and the color of His hair, and they
describe His whole appearance as being
resplendent.
Christ did not toll tho children to
com© to Him. “Suitor little children to
come unto me,” was not spoken to the
children; It was spoken to th© Phari
sees. Th© childreh had com© without
any invitation. No sooner did Jesus
appear than th© little ones pitched from
their mothers’ arms, an avalanche of
beauty and love into His lap. “buffer
little children to come unto roe.” That
was addressed to tho Pharisees; not to
the children. Christ did not ask John
to put his head down on His bosom;
John could not help but put his head
there. Such eyes, such cheeks, such a
chin, such hair, such physical condition
and appearance—why, it must have
been completely captivating and win
some. I suppose a look at Him was just
to love Him. O! how attractive His
manners! Why, when they saw Christ
coming along the street they ran i,ito
their houses and they wrapped up their
invalids as quick as they could and
brought them out that He might look at
them. O! there was something so pleas
ant, so inviting, so cheering in every
thing He did. in His very look. When
these sick ones were brought out did He
say: “Take away these sores; do not
trouble me with these leprosies.- ..>0,
no; there was a kind look, there was a
gentle word, there was a-hcaling touch.
They could not keep away from Him.
In addition to this softness of char
acter there was a fiery momentum. How
the old hypocrite trembled before Him.
How the kings of tho earth turned pale.
Hero is a plain man. with a few sailors
at IIis back, coming off the Sea of Gali
leo, going up to the palace of tho
Caesars, making that palace qiiako to the
foundations, anil uttering a word of
mercy and kindness which throbs
through all the earth, and through all
the heavens, and through all the ages.
O! He was a loving Christ. But it was
not effeminacy, or insipidity of char
acter; it was accompanied with majesty,
infinite and omnipotent. Lost tho
world should not realize His earnest
ness, this Christ mounts the cross. You
say: “If Christ has to die, why not let
Him take some deadly portion and lie
on a couch in some bright and beautiful
home? If He must die, let Him expire
amid all kindly attentions.” No, the
w-orld must hear the hammers on
the head of the spikes. The world must
listen to the death rattlo of the sufferer.
The world must feel His warm blood
dropping on each cheek, while it looks
up into the face of His anguish. And so
the cross must bo lifted, and the hole is
dug on tho top of Calvary. It must ho
dug three feet deep, and then the cross
is laid on the ground, and the sufferer is
stretched upon it, and the nails are
pounded through nerve, and muscle.and
bone, through the right hand, through
tho left hand; and then they shake His
right hand to see if it is fast, and then
they heave up tho wood, half a dozen
shoulders under the weight, and they
put the end of the cross to tho mouth
of the hole, and they plunge it in.all tho
weight, of Iiis body coming down for tho
first time on tho spikes; and while some
hold tho cross upright, others throw in
the dirt and trample it down, and tram
ple it hard.
O, plant that tree well and thorough
ly, for it is to bear fruit such as no other
tree ever bore. Why (lid Christ enduro
it? lie could have taken those rocks,
and with them crushed His crucifiers.
Ho could have reached up and grasped
the swgrd of tho omnipotent God and
with one clean cut have tumblod them
into perdition. But no, lie was to die.
He must die. His life for my life. His
life tor your life. In one of tho
European cities a young man died on
the scaffold for the crime of murder.
Some timo after the mother of this
young man was dying, and the priest.
camo in, and she made confession to tho
priest that she was the murderer, and
not her son; in a moment of anger she
had struck her husband a blow that
slow him. Tho son camo suddenly into
tho room, and was washing away tho
wounds and trying to resuscitate his
father, when some ono looked through
the window and saw him, and supposed
him to be the criminal. That young
man died for his own mother. You say:
“It was wonderful that ho never ex
posed her.” But I tell you of a grander
thing. Christ, tho Son of God, died
not for His mother, not for His father,
but fbr His sworn enemies. O, such a
Christ as that—so loving, so self-sacri
ficing—can you not trust Him?
How are you to trust in Christ? Just
as you trust any ono. You trust your
partner in business with important
things. If a commercial house gives
you a note payable three months hence,
you expect tho payment of that note at
tho end of three months. You have
'perfect confidence in their word and in
their ability. You go homo to-day.
Yoti expect thero will be food on tho
table. You have confidence in that.
Now, I ask you to have the same confi
dence in tho Lord Jesus Christ. Ho
says:
‘•You believe; I take away your sins;”
and they are all taken away.
‘^What!” you say, “before I pray any
more? Before I read my Bible any
more? Before I cry over my sins auy
more?”
Yes, this momont. Believe with all
your heart and you are saved. Why,
Christ is only waiting to get from you
what you give to scores of people every
day. What is that? Confidence. If
those people whom you trust day by day
are more worthy than Christ, if they are
more faithful than Christ, if they have
done more than Christ ever did, then
give them the preference; but if you
really think that Christ is as trust
worthy as they are, then deal with Him
as fairly.
“Oh, says some one in a light way.
“I believe that Christ was born in
Bethlehem, and I believe that He died
on the cross.”
Do you believe it with your head or
your heart? I will illustrate the differ
ence. You are in your own house. In
tho morning you open a newspaper, and
you read how Captain Braveheart on
the sea risked his life for the salvation
of his passengers. You say: "What a
grand fellow he must have been! His
family deserves very well of the coun
try.” You fold the newspaper and sit
down at the table, and perhaps do not
think of that incident again. That is
historical faith. But now you are on
the sea, and it is night, and you are
asleep, and are awakened by the shriek
of
“Fire!”
You rush out on deck. You hear,
amid the wringing of the hands and the
fainting, the cries:
“No hope! We are lost! we are lost!”
The sail puts out its wings of fire, the
ropes make a burning ladder in the
night heavens, the spirit of wreck hisses
in the waves, and on the hurricane deck
shakes out its banner of smoke and dark
ness.
“Down with the life-boats!” crios the
captain. “Down with the life-boaUl”
People rush into them. The boats arc
about full. Room only for ono more
man. You are standing on the deck be
side the captain. Who shall it be? You
or tho captain? Tho captain says:
“You.”
You jump and are saved. He stands
there and dies. Now, you believe that
Captain Braveheart sacrificed himself
for his passengers, but you believo it
with love, with tears, with hot and
long-continued exclamations, with griof
at his loss and joy at your deliverance.
That is saving faith. In other words,
what you believo witli all the hoart,
and believo in regard to yourself. On j
this bingo turns my sermon; aye, the
salvation of your immortal soul.
Yon often go across a bridge yon know
i nothing about. You do not know who
built the bridge, you do not know what
material it is made of; but you come to
it, and walk over it. and ask no ques
tions. And here is an arched bridge,
blasted from tho “Rock of Ages,” and J
built by the Architect of tho whole j
universe, spanning the dark gulf be
tween sin ami righteousness, a oil all
God asks you is to walk across it; and
you gc a little way on and you stop, and
you fall back and you experiment. You
say:
“How do I know that bridge will hold i
me?”
Instead of marching os with firm
step, asking no questions, ^ut feeling
that the strength of the eternal God is
under you. O, was there ever a prize
offered so cheap ns pardon and Heaven
are offered to you? For how much? A
million dollars? It is certainly worth ,
more than that. But cheaper than that j
you can have it. Ten thoilsand dol* j
lars? Less than that. Ono dollar? j
Less than that. One farthing? Less
than that. “Without money and with
out price.” No money to pay. No jour
ney to tune. iso penance to saner*
Only just one decisive action of the
soul!
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, au;l thot
shult be saved.
Shall I try to tell you what it is to be
saved? I can not tell you. No tnan, no
angel can tell you. Ilut I can bint at it.
For my text brings mo up to this point!
“Thou slialt be saved.” It means a hap
py life here, anil a peaceful death and a
blissful eternity. It is a grand thing to
go to sleep at niglit. and to get up in
the morning, and to do business all day
feeling that all is right between iny
heart and God. No accident, no sick
ness, no persecution, no peril, no sword
can do me any permanent damage. I
am a forgiven child of God, and He i.'i
lioiind to see mo through. The mount
ains may depart, tho earth may burn,
the light of the stars may bo blown out
by tho blast of the judgment hurricane;
but life and death, things present and
thipgs to come, are mino. Yea. further
than that—it means a poacoful death.
Ah, do not point down to tho hole in
tho ground, tho grave, und call it a
beautiful place; unless there be some
supernatural illumination, I shuddot
back from it. Hut now this glorious
lamp is lifted abovo tho grave, and ali
the darkness is gone, and the way ic
clear. I look into it now without a sin
gle shudder. Now my anxiety is not
about death; my anxiety is that I may
live aright, for I know that my life is
consistent when I come to tho last
hour, and this voice is silent, and
these eyes are closed, and these hands
with which I beg for your eternal sal
vation to-day are folded over the still
heart, that then I shall only begin to
live. What power is there in any thing
to chill me in tho last hour if Christ
wraps around me tho skirt of his own
garment? What darkness can fall upon
my eyelids then, amid tho Heavenly
daybreak? O death, I will not fear thee
thou. Hack to the ?*avcrn of darkness,
thou robber of all on earth. Fly, thou
despoiler of families. With this battle
axe I how thoe in twain from helmet to
sandal, the voice of Christ sounding
all over earth, and through the heavens:
“() death, 1 will be thy plague. Ograve,
I will bo thy destruction.”
To be saved is to wake up in the pres
ence of Christ. You know when Jesus
was upon-earth bow happy He made
every hous»Ho went into, and when He
brings us up to His house how great our
glee. His voice lias more music in it
than is to bo heard in all the oratorios
of eternity. Talk not about banks
dashed with efflorescence. Jesus is the
chief bloom of Heaven. We shall see
the very face that beamed sympathy in
Hcthany, and tako the very hand that
dropped its blood from tho short beam of
the cross. O, I want to stand in eternity
with Him. Toward the harbor I steer. To
ward that goal 1 run. I shall bo satis
fied when I awako in His likeness. Oh,
broken-hqarted men and women, how
sweet it will be in that good land to pom
all your hardships, and bereavements,
and losses into the loving ear of Christ,
and thon have Him explain why it was
best for you to bo widowed, and why it
was best for you to bo tried, and have
Him point to an elevation proportionate
to your disquietude here, saying: “You
suffered with mo on earth, come up now
and be glorified with me in Heaven.”
Some went into a house where there
had been a good deal of trouble and said
to the woman there:
“You seem to be lonely.”
“Yes,” she said, “I am lonely.”
“How many in the famliy?”
“Only myself.”
“Have you had any children?”
“I had seven children.”
“Where are they?”
' “Gone.”
“All gone?”
“AH.” Then she breathed a lonj
nigh into the loneliness, and said: “O,
sir, I have been a good mother to the
grave.”
And so there are hearts here that are
utterly broken down by the bereave
ments of life. I point you to-day to the
eternal balm of lloaven. Are there anj
here that I am missing this morning?
O, you poor waiting maid! your heart's
sorrow poured in no human ear, lonely
and sad! how glad you will be when
Christ shall disband all your sor
rows and crown you Queen unto God
and the Lamb forever! O, aged men
and women, fed by HjsAove and warmed
by His grace for throe score years and
top! will not your decrepitude change
for the leap of a hart w hen you come to
look face to face upon Him whom, hav
ing not seen, you love? O, that wil,
be the Good Shepherd, not oul
in the night and watching td
keep off the wolves, but with
the lambs reclining on the sun-lit hilL
That will be the Captain of our salva
tion, not amid the roar, and crash, and
boom of battle, but amid His disbanded
troops keeping victorious festivity
That will be the Bridegoom of th*
Church coming from afar, the Bride
leaning upon His arm while He looks
down into her face and says: “Behold
thou art fair, my love! Behold, thou art
fair!” _

Ar» Beautiful Women BapplaatT
In my life 1 have known many women
well. Among them is a fair majority of
what the truly appreciative would call
bappy, for which fact I thank God, as it
has helped me to take on the whole a
hopeful view of life, as w’eil as of
human nature. Now, are these women,
blessed as many of them ave with de
voted husbands, cheerful homes, cul
tivated society, and leisure for the ex
ercise of any special talent they may
possess, beautiful women? With one
or two exceptions, no. Indeed, more
than a few of them $ro positively plain,
if feature only is considered, while
from tho rest I can single out but two
or three whose faces nnd figures con
form to any of the recognized standards
of physical perfection. But they are
honored, they are loved, they are de
ferred to. While not eliciting the ad
miration of every passer-by, they have
acquired through the force, the swei t
ness or originality of their character
the appreciation of those whose appreci
ation confers honor and happiness, and
consequently their days pass in an at
mosphere of peace and good will which
is as far above the delirious admiration
accorded to the simply beautiful as tho
placid shining of the sunbeam is to the
phenomenal blaze of an evanescent
flame. —Anna Katharine Green, in

“GET WELL AND STAY WELL.”
Get. well and stay well. But how shall we do it 1
Listen, my friend, and the secret I’ll tell,
Though, for that matter, there’s no secret to it,
As many a man understands very well.
If you're low-spirited, gloomy, depressed,
If nothing tastes good and your nights bring no rest,
If your stomach is foul and your mouth seems much foulor,
And so cross you become that they call you a “ growler,”
Be sure that the trouble is due to your liver,
And the blood is as sluggish as sometimes a river
Becomes when it’s filled with all manner of stuff;
Clear it out and the current runs smoothly enough.
Go to the drug store and get a bottle of
Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, the
great Blood-purifier and Liver Invigorator.
It is a sure cure for tho low spirits and
f:eneral depression a man feels when his
iver is inactive ami his blood impure. It’s
the only blood-purifier and liver invigorator
guaranteed to benefit, or cure, or money
will bo promptly refunded. It cures Indiges
tion, or Dyspepsia, and from its wonderful
blood-purifying properties, conquers all Skin
and Scalp Diseases, Salt-rheum, Tetter, Ec
zema anti kindred ailments. All blood
poisons, no matter of what name or nature,
vield to its remedial influences. Scrofulous
Fiores and Swellings, Fever-sores and Hip
joint Disease, nro among the grave maladies
that have yielded to its marvelous curative
properties.

H1' ’*■»* the proprietors of DR. SAGE’S CATARRH REMEDY.
SYMPTOMS OF FATAUBn.-Headache, obstruction of nose, discharges
falling into throat, sometimes profuse, watery, amt acrid, at others, thick,
tenacious, mucous, purulent, bloody and putrid; eyes weak, ringing m cars,
deafness, difficulty of clearing throat, expectoration of offensive matter;
breath offensive; smell and taste impaired, and general debility. Only a
few of these symptoms likely to be present at once. Thousands of cases
result in consumption, and end in the grave. t
Hy its mild, soothing, antiseptic, cleansing, and healing properties, T)r. Pages Remedy
cures the worst caw-8. This Infallible remedy does not, like the poisonous irritating snuffs,
"erennis” and strong caustic solutions with which the public have long been humbujwred,
simply filiate for a short time, or drive the disease to the lunge, as then' is danger of doing
in the use of such nostrums, but it produces perfect and permanent cures of »ne
worst caM'8 of Chronic Catarrh, ns thousands eaw testify. “Cold in the Head
is cured with a few applications. Catarrhal Headache is relieved and cured as if t»T
xnagie. It removes offensive breath, loss or impairment of the sense of taste, smell or ncar
ing, watering or weak eyes, and impaired memory, when caused by the violence of latarrn,
as they all frequently are. Ily druggists, 60 cents.
