"T0 Hare Sold Toondrfi for Naughti unci Ve Shall I nilaniiMl Without I Mony"A Hh1 Ilarsaln Which ChrUt'a Itlnod Alone Will Right. TOPKKA, Kim., Aug. J). Dr. Tnl ningu rwiclictl this city yesterday In tho courso of hts western trip. Ho was warmly welcomed by the citlzeiwi. who came hi large numbers to hear tho fa jnoiw Brooklyn divine. The wibject of the Kunuon for tills week is. "A Poor Investment." "d tho text, Isaiah lii, 3, "Ye have sold yourselves for naught; and ye shall be redeemed without money.". The Lord's people- had gono head Jong Into sin. and as a punishment thoy luul been carried captive to Uaoylon. They found that Iniquity did not pay Cyrus seized Babylon, and felt so sorry ior these poor captives that, without a dollar of compensation, he let them go homo. 80 that, literally, my text was fulfilled. "Yo ha vo sold yourselves lor uaught; ntid yo shall bo redeemed witliout money." There Is enough Gospel in this text for fifty sermons. Thero are persons hero who have, llko the people of the text, sold out. You do not seem to bo long either to yourselves or to God. The tltlo deeds Iiavo beon passed over to "tho world, the flesh, and tho dovll,'' hut tho purchaser never paid up. "Ye have sold yourselves for naught." TIIK WOULD MtVKIt TATB ITS DKBTS. When a man passes himself over to tho world ho expects to got somo ade quate compensation. He has heard tho groat tilings that tho world does for a man, and ho bollovcs It Ho wants two hundred and llfty thousand dollars. That will bo horses and houses, and a snmmor resort, and Jolly companion ship. To get It ho parts with his phys ical health by overwork. Ho parts with his conscience. Ho parts with much domcstlo enjoyment. Ho parts with opportunities for literary oulturo. Ho parts with his soul. And bo ho makes over his en tiro naturo to tho world. Ho does It in four Installments. IIo pays down tho first installment, and ono-fourth of his naturo is gono. IIo pays dowu tho second installment, and one-half of his naturo is gono. He pays down the third installment, and three quarters of his naturo aro gono; and after many years havo gono by ho pays down tho fourth Installment, and lot his entiro naturo Is gono. Then ho comes up to tho world nnd says: "Good morning. I havo delivered to you tho goods. I havo passed over to you my body, my mind and my soul, and I havo como now to collect the two hundred and llfty thousand dol lars." "Two hundred and fifty thou sand dollars!" says tho world. "What do you mean!" "Well," you say, "I como to colloot tho monoy you owo mo, and I expect you to fulfill your part of the contract" "But," says tho world, "I havo failed. I am bankrupt I cannot possibly pay that dobt. I havo not for a long whllo expected to pay It" "Well," you thon say, "glvo mo back tho goods." "Oh, no," says tho world, "thoy aro all gono. lean not give them back to you." And Uiero you stand on tho confines of eternity, your spiritual character gono, 6tagger Ing'undor tho consideration that "you havo sold yourself for naught" I tell you tho world Is a liar; It does not keep Its promises. It Is a cheat, and it neon's everything It can put its hands 011. It Is a bogus world. It Is a slx'thousand-year-old swindle. Evon If It pays the two hundred and fifty thou sand dollars for whloh you contracted, It pays theni (n bonds that will not bo worth anything In a little whllo. Just as & man may pay dowu ten thousand dotlam in hard cash and get for It worth less scrip o tho world passes over to yoa the two hundred and llfty thou sand dollars in that shape which will not bo worth a farthing to you a thou eandth part of a second after you are dead. "Oh," you tay, "it will help to bury mo anyhow '" Oh, my brothorl you need not worry about that Tho world will bury you boon enough from sanitary considerations. VRALTII WILL :OT PASS TIIK flUAVK. Post mortem emoluments aro of no uso to you. Tho treasures of this world will not jvus current In tho future world; and tf all tho wealth of tho 3)auk of Eugland were put In tho pocket of your khroud, nnd you In tho midst of tho Jordan of death wore asked to pay three cents for your ferriage, you could not do It Thero comes a moment In your existence beyond which all earthly values fall, and many a man has wakened up In such a time to (lnd that ho has iold out for eternity tutd lias nothing to show for It I should us boon think of going to Chatham treet to buy silk pocket handkerchiefs -with no cotton In them as to go to this world expecting to tlud any permanent happiness.

I occupied tho Persian empire. I was king over Asia. Bo grudgo mo not this monument" But tho world In after years plowed up his sepulcher. HArrr! no! Tho world clapped Its hands and stamped Its feet In honor of Charles Lamb, but what does ho say! "I walk up and down, thinking I am happy, but feeling I am not" Call tho roll, and bo quick about It Samuel John son, tho learned I Happy! "No. lam afraid I shall somo day get crazy." William Haxlltt, tho great essayist I Happy! "No. 1 havo been for two hours and a half going up nnd down Paternoster row with a volcano in my breast" Smoilet, tho witty author! Happy! "No. I am sick of pralso and blamo, and I wish to God that I had such circumstances around mo that 1 could throw my pen Into oblivion." Buchanan, tho world renowned writ er, exiled from his own country, ap pealing to Honry VIII for protection! Happy! "No. Over mountains cov ered with snow and through valloys Hooded with rain I como a fugitive." Jfoliero, tho popular dramatic author! Happy! "No. That wretch of an actor just now recited four of my lines witli out tho proper aceont and gesture. To havo tho children of my brain so hung, drawn and quartered tortures me liko a condemned spirit" I went to seo a worldling dlo. As 1 went Into tho hall 1 saw Its floor was tessellated, and its wall was a plcturo gallery, I found his death chamber adorned with tapestry until it seemed as If tho clouds of tho setting sun had settled In tho room. Tho man had given forty years to tho world his wit, his timo, his genius, his talent, Ms soul. Did tho world como in to stand by ills deathbed, and clearing off tho vials of bitter nledlclno, put down any com pensation! Oh, no I Tho world does not llko sick and dying people, and loaves them In tho lurch. It ruined tills man, and then loft him. IIo had a magnificent funeral. All tho ministers wore scarfs, and thero wero forty-threo carriages in a row; but tho departed man appreciated not tho obsequies. . A VKRY TOOK LYVKSTMKNT. 1 want to persuado my audience that this world Is a poor Investment; that it docs not pay ninety per cont. of satis faction, nor eighty por cent, uor twen ty per cent, nor two per cent, nor one; that it gives no solaco when a dead babo lies on your lap; that It gives no peaco whon consclcnco rings its alarm; that It glvo3 no explanation In tho day of dlro trouble, and at tho timo of your deccaso it takes hold of tho pillow caso and shakes out tho feathers, and then Jolts down in tho placo thereof sighs and groans nnd ox ocrations, nnd then makes you put your head on it. Oh, yo who havo tried this world, is It a satisfactory portion! Would you advlio your friends to innko tho Invest ment! No. "Yo havo sold yourselves for naught" Your conscience went Your hopo went Your Blblo went Your hoaveu went Your God went. When a sheriff under a writ from tho court Mils a man out, tho olllccr gen erally loaves a few chairs and a bed, and a few cups ami knives; but In this awful vendue In which you have been engaged tho auctioneer's mallet has como dowu upon body, mind and soul. Golugl Gonol "Yo havo sold your selves for uaught,' How could yon do sol Did you think that your soul was amero trinket which for a fow pennies you could buy In a toy shop! Did you think that your soul, If oneo lost, might bo found ngoln If you went out with torches and Ian- torus! Did you think that your soul was short lived, and that, panting, it would soon He down for extinction! Or had you no Idea what your soul was worth! Did you over" put your fore lingers on Us eternal pulses! Havo you over felt tho quiver of Its peerless wing! llavo you not known that, after leav ing the body, tho tlrst step of your soul reaohos to tho stars, and tlionoxtstopto tho farthest outposts of God's universe, and that it will not dlo until tho day when tho everlasting Jehovah expires Oh, my brother, what possessed you that you should part with your soul so 0) leapt "Yo havo sold yourselves for naught" CAllltY TIIK CASK TO HKAVRX's 111011 COURT. But 1 havo t-omo good uows to tell you. I want to engage In a litigation for tho recovery of that soul of yours. I want to show that you havo been chwvtod out of It I want to prove, as I will, that ou were crazy on that sub ject and that tho world, uudtf. tmah alp oumitnuuos, had no right to take tho title deed from you, and If you will Join me I thall get a decree from tho high uhaneory court of heaven rein stating you Into tho po&wvttslon of your tout. "Oh," you say, "l am afraid of lawsuits, thoy aro io expensive, and 1 cannot pay tho cost" Then havo you forgotten the hist half of my toxtf "Yo have Mild ytmoelf for uaught ; and yo thall lie rwWmed without money " Money I good for a great many thing, but It vatinot do anything In this iimtUr of tho soul. You ounuut buy your way through. Dollar ami kiuiui iriiii iiiwm uouuug in tuo gate of uieivy. If ywi oould buy your ah-tttlou, Iiuyhi uld l a great pjtiliulon, an oitviulou f Wnll irvet. . Ua4 iqeu would kj up nnd buy out th rl- place, and Icavo us to shift for our- snlvoa. Hut as money is not a lawiui tender, what Is! I will answer, Blood I Whoso! Aro wo to go through tho slaughter! Oh, no; it wants richer blood than ours. It wants a king's blood. It must bo poured from royal arteries. It must bo a sinless torront But where Is the king! I seo a great many thrones and a great many occu pants, yet nono seem to bo coming down to tho rcsouc. But after awhile tho clock of night In Bethlehem strikes twelvoL and tho silver pendulum of a star swings across Hie sky, and I seo tho king of heaven rising tip, and ho de scends, and steps down from star to star, and from cloud to cloud, lower and lower, until he touches tho sheep covered hilk and then on to nnother hill, this last skull shaped, and there, at tho sharp stroke of persecution, a rill Incarnadine trickles down, and wo who could not bo redeemed by monoy are redeemed by prccions and Imperial blood. NO BLQOD, SO ATOXKMKOT. We havo in this day professed Chris tians who aro so rarefied and ethereal Ized that thoy do not want n religion of blood. What do you want! You seem to wnnt a religion of brains. Tho Blblo says, "In tho blood Is tho llfo." No ntonoment without blood. Ought not tho npostlo to know! What did he say! "Yo aro redeemed not with cor ruptible things, such as silver and gold, but by tho precious blood of Christ" You nut 'our lancet Into tho arm of our holy religion nnd withdraw tho blood, nnd you lenvo It n mero corpse, fit only for tho grave. Why did God command tho priests of old to striko tho knife Into tho kid, and the goat, and tho pigeon, and tho bnllock, nnd tho Iamb! It was so that when tho blood rushed out from these animals on tho floor of tho ancient tabernaclo tho peoplo should bo compelled to think of tho coming carnago of tho Son of God. No blood, no atonement I think that Gqd Intended to impress us with a vividness of that color. Tho green of tho grass, tho bluoof tho sky, would not havo startled and aroused us llko this deep crimson. It is as if God had said: "Now, sinner, wako up and seo what the Saviour endured for you. This Is not water. This Is not wlno. It Is blood. It is tho blood of my own Son. It is tho blood of tho Immnculato. It is tho blood of God." Witliout tho shed ding of blood is no remission. Thero has boon many a man who In courts of law has pleaded "not guilty," who nevertheless has been condemned bo causo thero was blood found on his hands, or blood found In his room. And what shall wo do in tho last day If It bo found that wo havo recrucifled tho Lord of Glory and havo never re pented of It! You must bellovo In tho blood or dlo. No escape. Unless you lot tho sacrifice of Jesus go In your stead you yourself must suffer. It Is either Christ's blood or your blood. "Oh," says somo ono, "thought of blood sickens mo." Good. God in tended it to sicken you with your sin. Do not act as though you had nothing to do with that Calvarlan massacre. You had. Your sins wero tho Imple ments of torturo. Thoso Implements were not uindo of steel and Iron nnd wood, so much as out of your sins. Guilty of this homicide, and this regi cide, nnd this deicido, confess your guilt today. Ten thousand voices of heaven bring In tho verdict against you of guilty, guilty. Preparo to dio, or bollevo In that blood. Stretch your self out for tho sacrifice, or accept tho Saviour's sacrllleo. Do not fling away your one chanco. It seems to mo as If all heaven wero trying to bid In your soul. Tho first bid It makes Is the tears of Christ at tho tomb of Iizarus; but that is not a high enough prleo. Tho noxt bid heaven makes Is tho sweat of Goth somnno; but It Is too cheap a prico. Tho next bid heaven makes seems to bo tho whlppod back of Pilato's hall ; but It Is not a high enough prleo. Can It bo possible that hen von cannot buy you In! Heaven tries oneo moro. It says: "I bid this timo for that man's soul tho tortures of Christ's martyrdom, tho blood on his temple, tho blood on his oheek, tho blood on his chin, tho blood on his hand, the blood on his side, tho blood on his knee, tho blood on his foot tho blood In drops,' tho blood In rills, tho blood In wols coagulated be neath tho cros; tho blood that wet the tips of tho soldlors tpoars, the blood that phushed warm In the faces of his onomles." Glory to Owl, that bid wins It! Tho hlghust prleo that was over paid for anything was paid for your toitl. Noth ing could buy it but blood. Tho es tranged proiwrty Is bought back. Tako It. "Yo havo sold yourselves for naught ; and yo Until bo redeemed without money." O atoning blood, cleansing blood, llfo giving blood, snnotlfylng blood, glorifying blood of Josusl Why not burt Into tears at the thought that for theo ho shod it for theo tho hard heart ed, for theo the lost! HIS BLOOI) UU OS U3. "No," says somo ono; "1 will havo nothing to do with It exoept that, llko tho enemies of ChrUt, I put both my hand Into that carnage and scoop up both palms full, and throw It on my head and cry, 'Ills blood bo on us and on our children P" Can you do suah a hoaklug thing tut that! Jut rub your handkerchief noroM your brow and look at It. It U tho blood of tho Son of God whom you havo do.xpll and driven back all thetouare. Oh, do not do that any longer I Como out boldly and frankly and honestly, and tell ChrUt you are Kirry. You cannot afford to so roughly treat him upon whom everything depends, U&fiti&Sff iW0U. Stat WW from this subject You sf that you are sold out, and that Christ wants to buy you back. Thero aro three pe"" sons who como after you today God tho Father, God the Son. and God tho Holy Ghost They uuito their three omnipotences in one movement for your salvation. You will not tako up arms against tho triuno God. will you! Is there enough musclo in your arm for such a combat! By tho highest throno in heaven, nnd by tho deepest chasm In hell, I beg you look out. Unless you allow Christ to carry away your sins, they will carry you away Unless you allow Christ to lift you up. thoy will drag you down. Thero Is only ono hopo for you, nnd that Is tho blood. Christ tho sin offering, bearing your transgressions. Christ the surety, pay ing your dobts. Christ the divine Cy rus, loosening your Babylonish enptiv tty. DO TOO WANT TO DE KllKB! Would vou not like to bo freo! Here Is tho prico of your liberation not money, but blood. I tremble from head to foot not because I fear your presence, but becauso I fear that you will mis3 your chnnco for immortal res cue. This Is tho nlternntivo divinely put "He that bolievoth on tho Son shall have everlasting life; and ho thnt belicvctli not on tho Son shall not seo life, but tho wrath of God abideth on him." In the last day, If you now reject Christ, oveiy drop of that sacrillcial blood, Instead of pleading for your re leaso as it would have pleaded if you iiad repented, will plead against you. O Lord God of tho Judgmont dnyl avert that calamity! Let us seo tho quick flash of thoscimotor that slays tho sin but saves tho sinner. Strike, om nipotent God, for tho soul's deliver ancol Beat, 0 eternal sea, with all thy waves against tho barren beach of that rocky soul and mako it tremble. Oh, tho oppressiveness of tho hour, tho minute, the second, on which the soul's destiny quivers; and this is that hour, that minuto, that second! Somo years ago thero catno down a fierco storm on the seacoast, and a ves sel got in tho breakers and was going to pieces. Thoy throw up somo signal of i distress, and the peoplo on shore saw them. They put out In a lifeboat Thoy camo on, and thoy saw tho poor sailors, almost exhausted, clinging to a raft; and so afraid wero tho boatmen that tho men would glvo up beforo they got to them they gave them three rounds of cheers, and cried: "Hold on, there I holdout We'll savo you I" After awhilo tho boat camo up. Ono man was saved by having tho boathook put In tho collar of his coat, and somo in ono way and somo in another, but thoy all got Into tho boat "Now," says tho captain, "for tho shore Pull away now, pull 1" Tho peoplo on the land wore afraid tho lifeboat had gono down. They said: "How long tho boat stays. Why, It must havo been swamped, and thoy havo all perished together." And thero wero men and women on tho pier heads and on tho beach wringing their hands, and while thoy waited and watched they saw something looming up through the mist, and it turned out to bo tho life boat As soon as It came within speaking distnnco tho peoplo on tho shoro cried eut: "Did you savo any of them! Did you save any ot tlieim" Anil as tho boat swept through tho boiling surf and camo to tho pier head tho captain waved his hand over tho exhausted sailors that lay flat on tho bottom of tho boat and cried : "All saved I Thank God I All saved 1" So may It bo to day. Tho waves of your sin run high, tho storm Is on you, but I cheer you with this Gospel hopo. God grant that within tho next ten minutes wo may row with you into tho harbor of God's mercy. And when theo Christian men gather around to seo tho result ol this sorvice, nnu tho glorified gathering on tho pier heads of heaven to watch and to llston, may wo bo ablo to roport all saved I Young and old, good nnd bad! All saved! Savod for thno. Saved for eternity. "And so It camo to pass that thoy nil escaped safo to land." reraonal Safety In a Thumlerttorni.
