you by the memory of those good old
times when you knelt at your

ness when she watched all nUht and
gave you the medicines at Just the
right time nnd turned the pillow when
It was hot. and with hand long nRC
turned to dust soothed your pains and
with that voice you will never heat
again unless you loin her In the bet

would b better by and by, and by
that dying touch where sh talked so
tlowly, catching her breath between
tho word by all those memories I
ask you to come and take the tame re

It ia good enough for you.
Aye, I make a better pV.v Hy th

of tlod, who approaches you in Infinite
love with torn brow and lacerated
hands and whipped back, crying.
Come unto me, all ye that labor and
are heavy laden, and I will glvo you
rest!"
Other pr neons apologize for net en
tering the ChrljUan Kfc because of
tho Incorrigibility of their tempera
ment Now, we admit it li harder for
some people to become Christiana
than for others, but the grace of tlod
never camo to a mountain that It
could not climb or to an abyss that It
could not fathom or to a bondage that
It could not break. And the wllde.it.
tho haughtiest, the most unRovernable
man ever created by the grace of Ood
may be subduf-d and sent out on min
istry of kindnebs. as God Fend. an
Ai:giiht thundcrHorm to water the
wild flowers down In tho grass.
Klch harvest of grace may grow on
the Hummit of the jagged b'eep. and
llocka of Christian grace may hnl
patura?oln I'.clds of bramb!e and
rock. Though your disposition may
le all u-brlftle with fretfulne.s.;. thorn; t
ou hao a temper a-g!.ni with
quick lightnings, though your avarice
be like that of tho horse le, eh, crylntf.
"Give!" tliough damnab!c Impurities
have wrapped you In all consuming
tire. God can drive that devil out of
your Houl, and over the chaos anl
the darUncnj he can say. "Let there bo
light."
Converting grace has lifted the
drunkard from the ditch and matched
the knife from the hand of the assas
sin and th false keys from the burg
lar, nnd In the pestiferous lanes of
tho ilty met the daughter of sin un
der tho dim lamplight and scattered
her j-orrow nnd her guilt with the
word., "Thy Fins are forgiven; go,
ami fin ro mote." Tor hiarlet tin
hcarlet atonement.
Other persons apologize for nnt en
tering the ChrlftUn life because of the
iiwotnistenclrs of thoe who p rot ess
religion. Now. I say it Irf illogical. Poor
lawyna ;,io nothing against jurispru
lierxe; (.or phyilclai.a are r.otliin.T
ai-iinst medicine; poor farmer. are
:u.r.i!!:g against Agriculture, and mean,
uuiteii pttVc professors of relUlon are
nothing ag:!lnt our glorious Chrla
tlue.ity. S.iiuetimes you hare brea riding
a!or.g o: a rummer night by u nw.imp
and you have seen lights that kindled
over decayed vt getation lights wlilrlj
are calU-J Ja k-o-lantern or wll!-o'-lhe-wlp;.
These lights aro merely pol
s.finous mlaamnta. My friends, on your
way to heaven you will want a bitter
light than the wlll-o'-thc- l;s which
lance ( n tho rotten character of mori
bund Christians. Exudations from
poisouous tree, in our neighbor's gar
den will make a very poor balm lor
our wounds.
Sickness will funic, and wo will t:n
pushed out toward the Kcd fea which
divides this world from the next, and
not the Inconsistency of Christians, but
the rod of faith, will wave back the
watent as a commander wheels his
ho.it. The Judgment will come, with
I'.s thunder shod solemnities. Oh. then
we will not rtop and say. "There wa a
mean Christian; thero waa a cowardly
Chilstlan; there was an impure Chris
tian." In that day as now, "If thou be
wise, thou shall Imj wise for thyelf.
hut if thou pcorncst thou alono hall
lear It."
Why, my brother, the Inconsistency
of Christians, ho far from being an
argument to keep you nwny from tlod.
ought to be an argument to drive you
to Him. The Inst placo for a skillful
doctor Is In a neighborhood where
there are all poor doctors, the best
place for nn cnterprlsng merchant to
open his store Is In a placo where the
ha? gain makers do not understand
their business and tho best placo for
you who want to become the Illustri
ous and complete Christian, the best
p';;e for you is to come rir.ht down
a mom; us who are so incompetent and
no inconsistent Hometlmc. Shaw lit
how. Give us an example.
Other persons rpo!oglze for not be
coming Christians because they Im
time, an though religion muddled the
brain of the accountant or tripped tho
pen of the author or th.hkcr.cd the
tongue of the oratsr or weakened the
arm of the- mechanic or scattered the
briefs of the lawyer or Interrupted the
sales of the menhanL They bolt thetr
More doors against It nnd light it back
with trowels and with yardsticks r.nd
cry, "An ay with your religion from
our rtoie. our olVo, our factory!"
They do imt nnderrtand that religion
In thl workday world will help yoti to
do anything you ought to do. It can
lay u keel; it (an sail a ship; It can
tnjy a cargo; it ran work ft pulley; It
can pave n street; It can fit a wrist
band; it can write a constitution; It
an material a hot. It ij as oppro-
j trlate to the astronomer as hlf tele
scope, to the chemist as his labors
tory. to the mason as bis plumb line,
to tho carpenter as his plane, to th
child as hi. marbles.
No ttmo to bo religious here! You
have no time not to bo religious. You
might as well have no clerks In your
ttore. no books In your library, no
compass on your ship, ro rifle In the
battle, no hat for your head, no coat
for your back, no shoes for your feet.
Iletter travel ou toward eternity bare
headed and barefooted and houseless
and homeless and friendless than to go
through life without religion.
Vhy. my friends, religion Is the best
fccurlty lu ever bargain; It is the
sweetcMt note la every s-ong; it Is the
brighter gem in every coronet. No
tlmo to bo religious? Why. you will
have to take tlmo to bo tick, to be
troubled, to die. Our world is only the
wharf from which wo ore to embark
for heaven. No tlmo to secure tho
filendahlp of Christ? No time to buy a
lamp and trim It for that walk through
the darkness which otherwlso will bu
illumined only by the whiteness of tho
tombstones? No time to educate tho
ye for heavenly splendors or the hand
for choral harps or the ear for ever
lasting bongs or tho toul for honor,
glory and Immortality? One would
think we had time for nothing else.
Other persons apologlzo for not en
tering the Christian life because it is
time enough yet. That Is very like
those persons who pend regrets and
ay, "I will come In perhaps at 11 or 1
o 'clock; I will not bo thero at the open
ing of the banquet, but I will be thero
at the close." Not yet! Not yet!.
Now, I do not glvo any doleful view
of this life. There U nothing In ray
nature, nothing In the graeo of God.
that tends toward ft doleful view of
human life. I have not much sympa
thy with Addison's description of the
"Vision of Mlrza." where he represents
human life ns bring a bridge of a hun
dred arches and both cudj of the
bridge covered with clouds, and the
raco coming on. the most of them fall
ing down through the llrH pan and
all eif them falling down through the
la.st span. It b a very dismal picture.
I have net much sympathy with the
Spanish proverb which aaya. "The sky
is good and the earth is good; that
which li bad Is between the earth and
the sky." Hut whtlo we as Christian
men are bound to tako a cheerful view
of life, we niu-st also confess that life
s a great uncertainty, and that man
who rays "I ean't become a Christian
yet" is running a risk infinite. You do
not perhaps realize tho fact that this
descending grade of sin gets Pteepcr
and steeper and that you are gathering
up a rush and velocity which after
a while, may not answer to the brakes.
Ho not among those who give their
whole life to the world and then give
their corpse to God. It does not teem
fair that whllo our pulses arc In full
play of health we serve ourselves and
serve the world and then make God at
la.st the present of a eothn. It does not
seem right tint wc run mr h!p from !
coast to oiart carrying eargoos for
ourselves and then, when the chip Is
!u.-.he, in the rorks, give to God the
shivered timbeis. It is a great tiling
for n man on his dying pillow to re

l;;t how n.u h btter. how much more
generous it wo'i'.i have been If he had
r, pented lifty years before! My friends.

tlnatlo:.
We h.ivo rtarted on a march from
which there is no retreat. The shad
ow eif eternity gather on our path
way. How Insignificant Is time com
pared with the vast eternity! As I
was thinking of this emc day while
coming down over tho Alleghany
mountain. at r.oon. by that wonderful
purs whleh you all have heard de
scribed as the Horse.hee a depression
In the bide of the mountain where the
train almost turns back again upon
Itself, and you tee how approprlato is
the name of the Horseshoe and think- t
Ing on this very theme and preparing
this very sermon. It peemed to me as If
the great courser of eternity speeding
along had just itruck the mountain
with one hoof and gone em Into Illimit
able bp.uo. t-'o nhort Is tlm. bo Insig
nificant 13 earth, compared with the
vast eternity! This moment voices
roll -down the sky and all the worlds of

ence of the King ragged with bin when
you may havo thlj robe of righteous
ness. Hash not your feet to pieces

Throw not your crown of llfo off tho

Equally Dtvtd,
When Henry M. Flagler, "the wizard
of the Hast Coast." began operations
that turnd a palmetto and "scrub
oak" tanglo Into a tropical fairyland,
and gave to the world Its greatest and
moit delightful winter resort. Palm
Heach. thero were many small Invest
ors who followed him thero.
Ono of them was C. O. Livingston of
Jacksonville. Fla.. who had built ft
brick block near Flagler's Investments
In St. Augustine, nnd had remarked
that ho would follow him "blam" to
Cape Sable and around on the gulf If
Flakier should keep on going.
Mr. Livingston had an ambition to
hav tho first plate-glasa front In the
Kvcrg'ades. So when hi brltk block
In We st Palm Hcach was nearlng com
pletion he made a special trip down
and personally superintended the plac
ing of tho po'.hhod plates In the framcB.
They were of large size and reached
nearly to the level of the sidewalk. He
was standing outside with his chest In
tho air, swelled with gratified nrabl
tlon, admiring the crystal sheets, when
along came Tiger-Tall, big chief of the
emce powerful but now fast disappear
ing Semlnoles.
When his foot treads Ms native
heath Tiger-Tall scorns to hide his no
ble form with any of tho habiliments
affected by his civilized brethren, but
he has a white shirt hung up In his
wigwam, which was given him by a
commercial drummer In the early '70s
and which he waa wont to don when he
made hi monthly pilgrimage to Palm
Heach for "fire water," "fire powder,"
nnd lead. He was thtw attired when
he walked up to Mr. Llinc,.-ton and
exchanged "Hows."
Tl.la was a good opportunity for the
proud builder to Impress the ravage
red man with the march of civiliza
tion, so he pointed out the building to
Tiger-Tall, calling his particular atten
tion to the plate glass front.
Tiger-Tall looked at the poMhcd
surfaces, but his unpractlced eye eould
see nothing except openings In the
front windows.
He walked up close, and thinking to
get a closer view, he trbd to step
through the window inside. His Ito
man nose came In contact with the
lass. which surprised him very much.
He rubbed his nose, gave a grunt and
looked hard at th window, nnd still,
not reelng any reason why he could
not btep inside, made a fei-ond essay.
He bumped his nose harder this time,
whlrh caused Mr. Livingston to laugh
long and loud.
Now the Indian is essentially a man
of action am! without emotions. Wlth-r,-.!t
th lea-t sign of nnger visible In
his face, Tlgir-Tall backed nway to
the -,lge of tho sidewalk, picked up a
reantllng and went for thnt plate-glass
frot t the fir. t In the Hvergladea -and
before th owner eculd protect there
wasn't a pbco U.'t big enough for a
paper w i?!,t.
Mr. LSvlnpMem stormed and curse. I
but the. big thief, adjusting lis idilrt.
and explaining the whole matter by ut
tering th'j bingle word "Huh!'' con
tinued hi search lor more mysteiles
to unravel.
In telling t U.i experience while on a
vlr-lt to Ilo.ton, raya the New York
Mall an I Express, oro of Mr. Living
bton's frUnds aked him why he did
not sue tho Indian.
"What." he cxc'.almed, "Rue Tiger
Tall? Sue a man who ain't got noth
ing but a bhlit? What would I get?
The shirt?"
THIS COLORED MAN WAS WISE.

hats went suddenly off the head and
traveled a block or two before they
alighted, and then rolled or bounded
threo or four blocks- more, like low

watched a young fcHw dl aprcar down

Derbies were tucked under each arm;
he held a muddy tall bat In one hand
and a white felt crush tat In tho other
other, and on top of nls own derby

He wore a smile from ear to esr.
"What are you doing with all those

"Well, IVe takln all dat am

"Why don't you give them back to
the men that lost tuera?" he was
asked.
"Well, you see." said he, "they was

couldn't wait,"
Then he went on up Uroadway,

Tho following clipped from the eor-rcspondt-nce
columns of tho Eau Claire
(Wisconsin) Leader Is but one of many
letters of a similar character that
might be published concerning West
ern Canada, the land of No. t bard
wheat and tho test cattlo on tbej con
tinent. It Is a simple matter t reach
the lands spokeu of, the Canadian Gov
ernment having agenrlcs established
at KL Paul and Duluth. Minnesota;

much lower than will exist in a few
tnonthi. Hut read what the oorre
rjKuiilent referred to has to say one
particular district.
"To the Editor of the Leader The
rush of ti e land seekers will bo to tho
rralrle provinces of the Dominion of
Canada. Tho allurements of a soil that
yield -10 bushels cf whtat to the acre
are too great to be resisted and an
Immense migration from this country
may be confidently predicted. People
here laughed nt first at the Idea of
any one leaving the I'nlted State-s for
Canada, but the Dominion authorities
knew they had a good thing and they
Muck to It. Their ofT.eiali evidently
knew the value of printers' Ink. They
spared no expense in letting the people
of this country know that theee lands
were there and that they were exaetly
as represented. They did more. They
rent out specimens of the crops raised
and samples of the gralu. We have
had them here nt four conxoawtlve
street fairs, presided over by etie of
their ablest In migration oncers. Tills
ke-ntlen-.ar. spared no pains. He ex
plained the value cf the lands and the
richness of the soil from morning to
ulgl.t to all comers.
"All this told In the Ion? ma. Sev

pur.i.eh. end Jo-dma. the son of Nun.
brought lark a good report, and now
some ten families will leave here In a
few wee k for Saskatoon to cettle upon
farm there, and others are preparing
to follow. Of course many will sppear
shocked at the Idea of any cne leaving
the nars am1 stripes for the Union
