THE BUSINESS MAN'S fiUBDKN.
- . .. Klrat There are a' great many men who
have business burdens. When we see - a
' man harried and perplexed and annoyed in
"business life we are apt to say, "He ought
no to have attempted to carry so much."
-Ah. that man may uot be to blame at all!
When a man plants a business he does not
know what will be its outgrowths, what
-will be its roots, what will be its branches.
, ( ( .There is many a man with keen foresight
. , and large business faculty who has been

stances springing upon him from ambush-.

business men until tbe hair is silvered
and deep wrinkles are plowed in the cheek,
and the stocks go up by the mountains and
go down by the valleys, and they are at
their wits' ends and stagger like drunken

' " There never has been a time when there
"nave been such rivalries in business as
uow. It is hardware against hardware,
booka1 against ! books, chandlery . against

such advantage of light, never such vari

Yon hear that it is varice which drives

I do not believe a word of it. ' V "
The vast multitude of theso business

"":--THE-jbORD SUSTAINED HIM.
' A young accountant in New York city
got his, accounts entangled. He knew he
waahopestaBdyel) he could hot make, bis.
accounts come oijit Tight, find he toiled at
them day and night until 'he 'was nearly
frenzied. It seemed by those books that '
something had. been , misappropriated, and
he knew before God he was holiest.' The last
day. cani& -He knew if he could not that
day make bis accounts come out right he
.would, go into, disgrace and, go into banish
ment fropijt he business establishment. He
went over there very early, before there'
was anybody in the place,' "and he knelt
down at tbe desk and said:. , "Oh, Lord,
thou knowestl have tried' to be honest, but
I cannot make these things come oat rigbtl
Help me today help me this morning!"
The young man arose and hardly know
ing why he did do' opened a book that lay.
on the desk, and- there was a leaf contain
ing a line of figures which explained every
thing. , lu other words, he cast his burden
upon the . Lord-and he'i'iord sustained
him.'-. Young man.'do you hear that? Oh,
yes; God .has a sympathy with anybody
that is in any kind of toil! He knows
bow heavy is the hod of bricks that tbe
.workman carries up the ladder of the wall;'
he hears the pickax of the miner down in
the-coaL shaft; be .knows Jio.st,ronf the
tern pest strikes hesailor at masthead r he
seesthe factorygirl among the spindles
and knows .how her arms ache; he sees the
sewing woman in the fourth story and.
knows how few pence she gets for making
a garment; and louder' than all' the din and
roar of the city ! comes the voice of a sym
pathetic God,, "Castthy burden upon the
Lord.' and he shall sustain thee."
. Second There are a great many who
have a weight .of persecution and abuse
upon' them. , Sometimes, society gets a
grudge' against ' a man.' ' All ' his motives
are misinterpreted, and his good deeds are
djroreciafed.; ith.mor virtue $han some.
ef the honored .and-. .applauded, he runs

a uuuurai uauua w Dwp -miB J in- loe pre

Joseph in the pit, and Daniel in the den,
and - Shad rach-in'Xhe fire, and aent John
' the ilEvangelirt foj desolate Patmos, and
Calvin to the castle of persecution, and
John, Husa to the. stake, and Korah .'after
Moses, and .Saul, after David, and 'Herod

to do for church or state, and you attempt
it with all- your soul, the lightning will
strike you. , ,.j 7
INTEGRITY ALWAYS BBXNGB ABOBE. " :
The. iworjd , always has had a cross between)-
two thieves, for the one who cornea
to save it. High and holy enterprise has
Always been followed by abase. Tbe most
'sublime tragedy 'of self sacrifice .has come
to burlesque. The graceful gait of t virtue
is al ways followed by grf mace and travesty .
The sweetest strain of poetry ever written
has tome to ridiculous parody, and as long
as there are virtue and righteousness in the
world, there will be something for iniquity
to grin at. All along tbe line of the ages,
and in : all .lands, the cry has been: "Not
tbia. man, but Barabbas. Now, Barabbaa
was a robber." , -::
And what makes the persecutions tft life
worse is that they come from people whom
you have helngg, from those to whom you
have loaned, money or have started in busi
ness, or whom you rescued in some great
crisis. I think it has been the history of
all our lives the most acrimonious assault
has come X rom those whom we have bene
fited;' whom we " have, helped, and that
makes it all the harder to bear. A man is
in danger of becoming cynical.' . '
A clergyman of the Universalist church :
went into a neighborhood for the establish
ment of a church of his denomination,
and he was anxious to find some one - of
that denomination, find he was pointed to
a certain house and ' went' there. He said
.to tbe man of the house, "I understand
you are a Universalist; I want yon to help
me in the enterprise." "Well,"atd the
man, "1 am a Universalist, bnt I have a
peculiar. . kind of ; Universalism.".r-f'.What.
la tbatr" asked the minister. VWell," re
plied the other,'"I have' been outrln
world, and I have been cheated and slan
dered and outraged and abused until I ben
ueve In "universal damnation!" ; arj
The great danger is that men be
come cynical and given to belie ve. as . Da
vid was tempted to say, that all men are
liars.. Oh, my friendsdo. not let that be
the effecfr upon "you sou Is I ...If you cannot
endure a little persecution how 'do you

tells us of Egmont the martyr, who, con

Third Tbere are others who carry great'
burdens of physical ailments. When sud
den sickness has come, and fierca choleras
and malignant fevers take the castles of
life by storm, we appeal to God; but in
these chronic ailments which wear out the
strength day. after day, and week-after
week, and year after year, how little re
sorting to God for solace! Then people de
pend upon their tonics and their plasters
and their cordials rather than upon heav
enly stimulants. Oh, how few people
there are completely well! Some of you, by
dint of perseverance and care, have kept
living to this time; but how you have had
to war against physical ailments! Ante
diluvians, without medical college and in
firmary and apothecary shop, multiplied
their years by hundreds; but he who has
gone through the gantlet of disease in our
time, and has come to seventy years of age,
is a hero worthy of a palm.
THE BURDEN OF ILLNESS.
' The world seems to be a great hospital,
and you run against r heumatisms and con
sumptions, and scrofulas and neuralgias
and scores of old diseases baptized by new
nomenclature. Oh, how heavy a burden
sickness is! It takes the color out of the
sky, and the sparkle out of the wave, and
the sweetness out of the fruit and the lus
ter out of the night. When the limbs ache,
when the respiration is painful,' when the
mouth is hot, when the ear roars with un
healthy obstructions, how hard it is to be
patient and cheerful and assiduous! "Cast
thy .burden, upon the Lord. Does your
head acbef : His wore the thorn.' "i Do your
feet hurtf ' His were crushed of the spikes.
Is your side painfull1 His . was. struck by
tbe spear. Do you feel like giving way un
der tbe burden f His-weakness gave way
under across. ... . ..
- .While you are in every possible way to
try to restore your' physical vigor, yoa are
to remember that more-' soothing than any
anodyne,and more vitalizing than any stim
ulant, and - more strengthening than any
tonic is the prescription of the text: "Cast
tby burden upon the Lord, and he shall
sustain ' thee." - We hear , a great deal of
talk now about faith cure, and some people
say it cannot be done and it is a failure.! rj
do not know but that tbe chief advance of
the church is to be in that direction. Mar
velous things come to me day by day
which make me think that if the age of
miracles is past it is because the faith of
miracles is past. .. ;
.' . A prominent merchant of , 'New York
said to a member of my family, "My moth
er wants her case mentioned to Mr. Tal
mage, " .-This was the case. f He said: "My
mother bad a dreadf ul abscess, from which
she bad suffered untold agonies, and all
surgery had been exhausted upon her,, and
worse and worse she grew until we called :
in a few Christian friends and proceeded
to pray about tt. We commended her case
to God, and "the abscess began immediately
to be cured.' She is entirely well now, and
without knife and without any surgery."
So that case has come to me, and tbere are
a score "of other cases coming to oar ears
from ' all' parts of' tbe earth! Oh, ye who
are sick; go to Christ! . Oh, ye who are
worn out with agonies of body, "Cast thy
burden upon the Lord,, and he shall sus
tain thee!",, -
THS'6iTBtSs'0V BiraEiVElfBNT.
Another bu rden ' some have to carry Js
the burden of bereavement.' ' Ah! these are
the troubles that wear us out. ' If we lose our
property; by 'additional industry perhaps
we may bring' back the .''estranged' fortune;
if-.Jwe; , lose; -oar -good .name, .perhaps by
reformation of -,rnorals ,we" may achieve
again reputation for integrity; but who will
bring back the dear departed f ,Alas me!
f or the etobt-f 'cr&dles and these trunks
of childish rtys that will -never be used
again. "-Alas me I' for the empty: chair and
-the silence in the halls that will never echo
again' tor; those: familiar .footsteps. .Alas)
for the cry of widowhood and orphanage.

Now. the grave is brighter than the an
cient tomb where the lights were perpetu
