fDfL TALMAGE'S SERMON ON THE
MEETHWS OF BOAZ AND RUTH..
A Dimiina Especially Appropriate to the
' t !! of the Harvest Time It Includes
mm strfcertetlnrt to All Regarding the
Doty Me. '
tiLfcKwooD, Colo., Aug. A sermon,
redolent with the breath of the vast har
vest fields of the west, indicates that Dr.
Talmae has found in the scenes through
which $ baa been traveling and in his
present surroundings, suggestions of Gos-
pel leseons. His text is taken from - Ruth
- fi, 3: "And she went and came and gleaned
.in the field after the reapers; and her hap
was to lighten a part of the field belong
ing onto Boas, who was of the kindred of
. Climelech." '
Within a few weeks i hare been in North
.Carolina, Virginia, Pennsylvania, New
"York, Ohio, Michigan, Canada, Indiana,
'Illinois, Kentucky, Missouri, and they are
one great harvest field, and no season can
be more enchanting in any country, than
the season of harvest.
The time that Ruth and Naomi arrive
at Bethlehem is harvest time. It was the
old custom when a -sheaf fell from a
"load in the harvest field for the reapers
to refuse to gather it np; that was to be
left for the poor who might happen to
come that way. If there were handfuls of
grain scattered across the field after the
main harvest, had been reaped, instead of
raking it, as farmers do now, it was, by
the custom of the land, left in its place, so
that the poor coming along that way
might glean it and get their bread. But,
you say, "What is the use of all these
harvest fields to Ruth and Naomi T Naomi
is too old and feeble to go out and toil in
the sun; and can you expect that Ruth,
the young and the beautiful, should tan
her cheeks and blister her hands in the
harvest field f'L-. y
Hoax owns a large farm, and he goes out
to .see toe reapers gatner In the grain.
Coming there, right behind the swarthy,
Hun browned reapers, he beholds a beauti
ful woman gleaning a woman more lit to
bend to a harp or sit upon a throne than to
stoop among the sheaves. Ah, that was
an eventful dayt
1. LOVK AT FIRST SIGHT.
It was love at first sight. Boaz forms an
attachment for the womanly gleaner an
attachment full of undying interest to the
Church of God in all ages; while Ruth,
with an ephab, or nearly a bushel of bar
ley, goes home to Naomi to tell her the
successes and adventures of the day. That
Ruth, who left her native land of Moab in
darkness, and journeyed through an un
dying affection for her mother-in-law, is in
the harvest field of. Boaz, is affianced to
one of the best families in Judah, and be
comes in after time the ancestress of Jesus
Christ, the Lord of Glory 1 Out of so dark
a night did there ever dawn so bright a
morning?
I learn in the first place from this sub
ject how trouble develops character. It
. raa bereavement, poverty and exile that
ileveloped. Illustrated and announced to
all ages the sublimity of Ruth's character.
That is a very unfortunate man who has
no trouble. It was sorrow that made John
Banyan the better dreamer, and Dr. Young
the better poet, and O'Connell the better
orator, and Bishop Hall the better preach
er, and Havelock the better soldier, and
Kitto the better encyclopedist, and Ruth
THE VALUE OF TROUBLE.
1 once asked an aged man in regard to
his pastor, who was a very brilliant man,
"Why is it that your pastor, so very bril
liant, seems to have so little tenderness in
his sermons!"' "Well," he replied, "the
reason is our pastor has never had any
. trouble. When misfortune comes upon him
his style will be different." After awhile
the Lord took a child out of that pastor's
house, and though the preacher was just
as brilliant as he was before, oh, the
warmth, the tenderness of his discourses!
The fact is that trouble is a great edu
"cator. You see sometimes a musician sit
down at an instrument, and his execution
is cold and formal and' unfeeling. The
reason is tbut all his life he has been pros
pered. But let misfortune or bereavement
come to that man, and he sits down at the
instrument, and you discover the pathos
in the first sweep of the keys. Misfortune
and trials are great educators.
A young doctor conies into a sickroom
where there is a dying child. Perhaps he
is very rough in his prescription, and very
rough iu his manner, and rough in the
feeling of the pulse, and rough iu his an
swer to the mother's anxious question, but
the years roll on and there has been one
dead iu his own house, and now he comes
into the sickroom, and with tearful eye he
looks at the dying child and be says, "Oh,
how this- reminds me of m Charlie!"
Trouble, the great educator! Sorrow I
see its touch in the grandest painting;
hear its tremor in the sweetest song; I feel
its power in the mightiest argument.
Grecian mythology said that the foun
tain of Hippocrene was struck out by the
foot of the winged horse, Pegasus. I have
often noticed in life that the brightest and
most beautiful fountains of Christian com
. fort and spiritual life have been strnck out
by the irou shod hoof of disaster and ca
lamity. I see Daniel's courage best by the
flash of Nebuchadnezzar's furnace, I'see
Paul's prowess best when I find him on
- the foundering ship under the glare of t he
lightniug iu the breakers of Melita. God
crowns his children amid the howling of
wild beasts and the chopping of blood
splashed guillotine and the crackling fires
of martyrdom.
It took the persecutions of Marcus Aure
lius to develop Polycarp and Justin Mar
tyr. It took the pope's bull, and the cardi
nal's curse, and the world's anathema to
develop Martin Luther. It took all the
hostilities against the Scotch Covenanters
and the fury of Lord Claverhouse to de
velop James Renwick, and Andrew Mel
ville, and Hugh McKail, the glorious mar
tyrs of Scotch history. It took tfca stormy
sea, and the December blast, and the deso
late New England coast, and the war
whoop of savages to show forth the prowess
of the Pilgrim fathers
When amid the storms they sang.
And the stars heard, and the sea:
. And the sounding aisles of tbdim wood
Rang to the anthems of the tree.
It took all our past uational distresses,
and it takes all our present national sor
rows, to lift up our nation on that high
career where it will march along after the
foreign despotisms that have mocked and
the tyrannies that have jeered shall be
swept down under the omnipotent wrath
of God, who bates oppression, and who, by
the strength of his own red right arm, will
make all men free. And so" it is individu
ally, and in the family, and in the church,
and in the world, that through darkness
and storm and trouble men, women
churches, nations, nro developed. .
TIIK BEAUTY OF FRIENDSHIP. -"
Again, I see in my text the beauty of un
faltering friendship. 1 suppose there were
plenty of friends for Naomi while she was
in prosperity. But pf all her acquaint
ances, how many were willing to trudge
off with her toward Judea, when she had
to make that lonely journey? One the
heroine of my. text. One absolutely one.
I suppose when Naomi's husband was liv
ing, and they had plenty of money , and all
things -went well, they had a great many
callers.' ; But I suppose that after her hus
band died, and her property went, and she
got old and poor, she was" not troubled
very much with callers. All the birds that
sang in the bower while the sun shone
have gone to their nests, now the night has
fallen.
Oh, these beautiful sunflowers that
spread out their color in the morning hour!
But they are always asleep when the sun
goes down! Job had plenty of friends
when he was the richest man in Uz; but
when his property -went and the trials
came, then there were none so much that
pestered as Kliphaz the Temanite, and
Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naam
athite. Life often . seems to be a mere game,
where the successful player pulls down all
the other men into his own lap. Let sus
picions arise about a man's character, and
he becomes like a bank in. a panic, and all
the imputations rush on him and break
sll ges, alt generations, have an interest
in the fact that she was to become an an
cestress of the Lord "Jesus Christ, and all
nations and kingdoms must look at that
one tittle incident with a thrill of unspeak
able and eternal satisfaction.. So it! is in
your history and in mine: events that you
thought of no importance at all have been
of very great moment. - That casual con
versation, that accidental meeting-r-you
did not think of it again for a long while;
but how it changed all the current of your
life! . . ..'".. - , I : .
It seemed to be of no importance that
Jubal invented rnde instruments of music,
calling them barp and -organ, but they
were the introduction of all the world's
minstrelsy. And as you hear the vibra
tion of a stringed, instrument, even after
the fingers have been taken away from it,
so all music now of lute and drum and
cornet is only the long continued strains of
Jubal's harp and Jubal's organ. It seemed
to be a matter of very little importance
that Tubal Cain learned the uses of copper
and iron, but that rude foundry of ancient
diiys has its echo in the rattle of Birming
ham machiuery and the roar and bang of
factories on the Merrimac,
BEAUTY" OF FEMALE J3TDUSTRT. ' .
Again,-1 see In my subject an illustration
1 of the beauty of female industry. Behold
down in a day that character which in due I Ruth toiling, in the harvest field under the
time would have had strength to defend
itself. There are reputations that have
been half a century in building which go
down under some moral exposure, as a
vast temple is consumed by the touch of a
sulphurous match. ' A hog can uproot a
century plant. ,
In this world, so full of heartlessnessand
hypocrisy, how thrilling it is to find some
friend as faithful in days of adversity as in
days of prosperity 1 David had such a
friend in Hushai; the- Jews had such a
friend in Mordecai, who never forgot their
cause; Paul had such a friend in Onesiph
orus, who visited him in jail; Christ had
such in the Marys, who adhered to him on
the cross; Naomi had such a one in Ruth,
who cried out, "Entreat me not to leave
thee, or to return from following after
thee; for whither thou goest, I will go; and
where thou lodgest I will lodge; thy peo
ple shall be my people, and thy God my
God; where thou diest will I die, and there
will I be buried: the Lord do so to me and
more also, if aught but death part thee
and me," - .
FROM DAK KK ESS TO DAT.
Again, I learn from this subject that
paths which open in hardship and darkness
often come out in places of joy. When
Ruth started from Moab toward Jerusalem,
to go along with her mother-in-law, I sup
pose the people said: Oh, what a foolish
creature to go away from her father's
house, to go off with a poor old woman
toward the land of Judea! They won't
live to get across the desert. They will be
drowned in the sea! or the jackals of the
wilderness will destroy them." It was a
very dark morning when Ruth started off
with Naomi; but behold her in my text in
the harvest field of Boaz, to be affianced to
one of the lords of the land, and become
one of the grandmothers of Jesus Christ,
the Lord of glory. And so it often is that
a path which starts very darkly ends very
brightly.
When you started out for heaven, oh!
how dark was the hour of conviction how
Sinai thundered and devils tormented and
the darkness thickened! All the sins of
your life pounced upon you, and it was the
darkest hour you ever saw when you first
found, out your sins. After awhile you
went into the harvest field of God's mercy;
you began to glean in the fields of divine
promise, and you had more sheaves than
you could carry as the-voice of God ad
dressed you, saying, "Blessed is the man
whose transgressions are forgiven and
whose sins are covered." A very dark;
starting in conviction, a very bright end
ing in the pardon and the hope .and the
triumph of the Gospel! .
So, very often in our worldly business oi
in our spiritual career we start off on a
very dark path. We must go. The flesh
may shrink - back, but there is a voice
within, or a voice from above, saying,
"You must go," and we have to drink the
gall, and we have to carry the cross, and
we have to traverse the desert, and we are
pounded and flailed of misrepresentation
and abuse, and we have to edge our way
through ten thousand obstacles that have
to be slain by our own right arm. We
have to ford the river, we have to climb
the mountain, we have to storm the castle,
but, blessed be God, the day of rest and re
ward will come. . On the tiptop of the
captured battlemeDts we will shout the
victory; if not in this world, then in that
world where there is no gall to drink, no
burdens to carry, no battles to fight. How
do I kno7 it? Knew itt I know it because
God says so "They shall hunger no more,
neither thirst any more, neither shall the
sun light on them, nor any heat, for the
Lamb which is in the midst of the throne
shall lead them to living fountains of
water, and God shall wipe all tears from-
their eyes."
It was very hard .for Noah to endure the
scoffing of the people in bis day, while he
was trying to build the ark, and was every
morning quizzed about his old boat that
would never be of any practical use. But
when the deluge came, and the tops of the
mountains disappeared like the backs of
sea monsters, and the elements, lashed np
in fury, clapped their hands over a drowned
world, then Noali in the ark rejoiced in his
own safety and in the safety of his family,
and looked out on the wreck of a ruined
earth.
THE SUFFERINGS OF JESCS.
Christ, hounded of persecutors, denied a
pillow, worse maltreated than the thieves
on either side of the cross, human hate
smacking its lips in satisfaction after it
bad been draining his last drop of blood.
the sheeted dead bursting from the sepul
chers at his crucifixion. Tell me, O Geth
semane and Golgotha! were there ever
darker times than those? Like the boom
ing of the midnight sea against the took,
the surges of Christ's anguish beat against
the gates of eternity, to be echoed back by
all the thrones of heaven and all the dun
geons of helL
But the day of reward comes for Christ;
all the pomp and dominion of this world
are to be bung on his throne, uncrowned
heads are to bow before him on whose head
are many -crowns, and all the celestial
worship is to come- up at bis feet like the
humming of the forest, like the rushing of
the waters, like the thundering of the seas,
while all heaven, rising on their thrones,
beat time with their scepters: "Hallelujah,
'for the Lord God omnipotent reignethl
Hallelujah, the kingdoms of this world
have become the kingdoms of our Lord
Jesus Christ!"

The golden spired Apocalypse.
Again, I learn from my subject that
events which seem to be most insignifi
cant may be momentous. Can you imag
ine anything more unimportant than the
coming of a poor woman from Moab to
Judea? Can you Imagine anything more
trivial than the fact that this Ruth just
happened to alight as they say just hap
pened to alight on that field of Boaz? Yet
hot sun, or at noon taking plain bread with
the reapers, or eating the parched' corn
which Boaz banded to her. The customs
of society of course have changed, .and
without the hardships and exposure to
which Ruth was subjected, every intelli
gent woman will find something to do. I
know there is a sickly sentimentality on
this subject. " In some- families there are
persons of no practical service to the house
hold or community, and though there are
so many woes all around about them in
t&e world they spend their time languish
ing over a new. pattern or bursting into
tears at midnight over the story of some
lover who shot himself! They would not
deign to look at Ruth carrying back the
barley .on her way home to her mother-in-law,
Naomi. ' . : .
All this fastidiousness may seem to do
very well while they are under the shelter
of their father's house; but when the sharp
winter of misfortune comes, what of these
butterflies? . Persons under indulgent par
entage may get upon themselves habits of
indolence, but when they come out into
practical life their soul will recoil with dis
gust and chagrin. -.They will feel in their
hearts what the pqet so severely satirized
when he said; . -
Folks are so awkward, things so impolite.
They're elegantly pained from morn till night.
Through, that gate of indolence how
many men and women have -marched, use
less .on . earth,, to . a . destroyed eternity!
Spinola said to Sir Horace Vere: "Of what
did your brother die?" "Of having nothing
to . do," was the answer. - "Ahl" said
Spinola, "that's enough to kill any gen
eral of us." Oh, can it be possible in this
world, where there is so much suffering to
be alleviated, so much darkness to be en
lightened, and so many burdens to be car
ried, that there is any person who cannot
find anything to do?". .
' THE BOAST OF MADAME DE BTAEL.
Madame de Stael did a world of work in
her time; and one day, while she was
seated amid instruments- of music, all of
which she had mastered, and amid manu
script books which she had written some.
one said to her, "How do you find time to
attend to all of these things?" "Oh," she
replied, "these are not the things I am
proud of. My chief boost is in the fact that
I have seventeen trades, by any one of
which I could make a livelihood if neces
sary." And if in secular spheres there is
so much to be done, in spiritual work how
vast the field! How many dying all around
about us without one word of comfort!
We want more Abigails, more Hannahs,
more Rebeccas, more Marys, more Deb

- Once more I learn from my subject the
Value of gleaning. Ruth going into that
harvest field might have said: "There is a
straw and there is a straw, but what is a
straw? I can-'t get any barley for myself
or my mother-in-law out of these separate
straws.". Not so said beautiful Ruth. She'
gathered two straws and she put them to
gether, and more straws until she got
enough to make a sheaf. Putting that
down she went and gathered more straws
until she had another sheaf, and another
and another and another, and then she
brought them all together and she threshed
them out, and she had an ephab of barley.

carry off all the hours, and there is only
here and there a fragment left that is not
worth gleaning. Ah, my friends, you
could go into the busiest day and busiest

- Hardening Cast Iron.
Some Chicagoans have lately been con
ducting satisfactory experiments in hard
ening cast iron by a new chemical process.
Briefly described, the mode of procedure is
as follows: The . iron i3 put in a furnace
and heated to the$. proper temperature,
when the chemicaNs put on tbe upper side
and goes right throngh it. so that when
cool the under side is as bard as the upper
side, and when broken the iron is as hard
inside as outside.'" . ' , '
Ko trouble is experienced in going
through six inches, and the chemical can
probably go through any reasonable thick
ness. In Chicago it is being used for hard
ening brick dies made of cast iron, where
as heretofore brick dies were necessarily
made of steel. ' This is a great saving, both
in material and work. Another use is for
shoes on. grips of cable cars. Jfew York
