Usage preached liero today to an
oormous audience. Ho expects to
rib absent from homo about ton days,
during: which period ho spooks in as
Bijyiy cibes. Tho subject of hisser
jmorf was "Hoavonly Congratula

A Jost sheep I Nothing can bo more
thoroughly lost. I look through the
window of a shophord's houso at
night. Tho candles aro lighted. The
shepherd hasi just placed his staff
Against the mantel. Ho has taken
off his coat, shaken out of it the dust
asd hung it up. I boo by tho candlo

Tho shepherd, fagged out with the
long tramp, site down on a bench,
and tho wifo and children and the
neighbors say to him, "Como, now,
fell us how you found tho poor
thing." MWoll," ho says, "this morn
ing I went out to the yard to look at
tho flock. No sooner had I looked
over tho fence than I Baw something
wrong. Tho fact was that they did
cot count right. Ninoty-flvo, ninety

only ninoty-nino. McDon

tho fields ond across tho bridges, and
I tracked tho moors, and I leaped tho

thing did I hoar, I sold to inysolf,
'Tho lamb must havo falloit into n

mountains must havo torn it to

could not give it up. You soo it was

Somo cathedrals have ono lower.
Somo cathedrals havo two, throo,
four towors. Did you over hear
them all ring at once? I am told
that tho bell in tho cathedral of ftt
Paid rings only on raro occasiona
f or instance, at tho death or tho birtb
of a king. Havo you soon a cathe
dral with four towcrst And havo
you heard them all striko into ono
groat chimo of gladness? Hero is a
man who is moral. Ho is an exam
plo to a groat many professors of re
ligion in some things. Ho never did
a mean thing in his lifo; ho pays all
hia debts and is a good citizen and a
good neighbor, but ho Bays ho is not
a Christian.
Somo day tho Holy Spirit comoa
into his heart and ho sees that ho
cannot depend upon Ids morality for
salvation. He says: "0 Lord God,
I havo boon depending upon my
good works, I find I am a sinner and
I want thy salvation. Lord, for
Jesus' sako, havo mercy on mo.''
And God pardons him, and immedi
ately ono of tho towors of heaven
utrikes a silvery chimo, for thoro aro
four towers to tho heavenly temple.
Hero is a man who is bad; ho knows
ho is bad, and everybody else knows
ho is bad, but ho is not on outcast,
far from being an outcast, Ho moves
in respectable circles.
Dut ono day, by tho power of tho
Holy Ghost, ho rousos up to boo his
sinfulness and ho says: "O Lord,
havo mercy, I am a wanderer, and
without thco I iwrish. Havo mercy."
God hoars him, and immediately two
of tho towers of heaven striko a
sil very chimo. But hero is an out
cast, Ho was pickod tip last night
out of tho gutter and carried to tho
police station. Ho has been in tho
penitentiary throo times. Ho is cov
ered and soaked with loathesomonoss
and abomination. Arousing from his
debauch ho crios out, "O God, havo
m-jrey on mo. Thou who didst par
don tho pouitont thief, hoar mo cry
for inorcy."
TItU LOUD UBTKNS AND PARDONS.
And tho Lord listens and pardons,
and no sooner is tho poor wretch
portioned than threo of tho great
to .vers of heaven striko up a silvery
chimo. But hero is a waif of tho
strcot. Sho passes under tho gps

My subject impresses you, I thiuk,
with tho thought tliat it is possible
for us to augmont tho happiness of
heaven. People think that souls bo
foi o tho throno aro as happy as thoy
can bo. I deny It. Look at that
mother before tho throno of God.
When who died Bho loft hor boh in
this world a vagabond. Tliat Bon ro

God. Tho report of that salvation
lias reached heavon. Do you toll mo
Unit mother boforo tho throno of
God has not hor joy richly aug
mented?
Thero is many a man in this houso
today who could go out with a torch
and kindle a now bonfiro of victory
on tho hills of heavon. If you would
this day roiwnt and como to God
tho uowB of your (solvation would
roach heaven, and thou hark I to
tho Bhout of tho ransomed. Your
UtUo child wont away from you into
tho good land. Whilo hIjo was hero

Sometimes you camo homo nt night

uight key into tho latch than Hho be

havo you brought mol" Sho Is now
boforo tho throno of Gal. Can you
bring her a gift today? You may.

I wai reading f a .ung wao, after
raining a gr'iat victory, eaid to hip
army, "27o. no sh'-fngj lot ovsry

if this hour your eo.t. ohould come to
God nothing could cp tho nhouting

throne: for "thsv h joy in heaven

In mme fRLiilies thoy keep a vacant
"hair and a vacaufc plate for tho do
partcd, but if in eomo of your houso-
holds you kept a vacant chau and a
vac.mt pU!A lvI thoai who havo gone
away from you into tho next world,
tho vacant chairs and vacant plates
ivoulu outnumber thos3 which ore
occupied. I onco raid to you there
ire no vacant chairs in heaven, but J
recall tliat. Uight berrfdo your loved
ono in that good land there is a va
cant chair, not made vacant by death,
for death nover enters there; it is
a vacant chair for you. Will you
take it?
HEAVEN AKD EAT.Tn IS CT08B HTjrPATIIT
My subject also improfases mo with
tho idea that heaven nnd earth are
in close sympathy. People talk of
heavon as though it woro a great way
off. Thoy say it is hundreds of tho u
sands of miles beforo you reach the
first star, and then you go hundreds
of thousands of miles Ixjfore you got
to tno second star, and then it is nul
lions of miles boforo you reach heav
en. Thoy say heaven is tho center
of tho universe and wo aro on the
rim of tho universe. That is not the
idea of my text. I think tho heart
of heaven beats very closn to our
world. Wo measure distai.ccd by
tho time taken to traverse tho3o dis
tances. It used to bo a long distanco to San
Francisco, Many weeks and months
were passed beforo you could reach
that city. Now it is six or seven
days. It used to bo six weoks befoie
you could voyago from hero to Liv
erpool. Now you can go tliat dis
tanco in six or bovcu days. And bo I
measure tho distance between eailh
and heaven and I find it is only a
flash. It is ono instant horo, and an
other instant thero. It is very near
today. Do you not feel tho breath
of heavon on your faco? Christ says
ui ono place it Is not twenty-four
hours' distanco, whon ho Bay3 to tho
penitent thiof, "This day, this day,
shalt tliou bo with mo in Paradise,"
It is not a day, it is not an hour, it is
not a minute, it is not a second.
Oh, how near heaven if to earth.
By oceanic cable you send a message.
Ad it is expensive to send a mcs&ago,
you compress a great deal of meauing
in a fow words. Sometimes in two
words you can put vast meaning.
And it seems to mo that tho angols of
God who carry news from earth to
heaven, need to take up tins hour, in
regard to your soul, only two words
iu order to lundlo with gladnoas all
tho redeemed boforo tho throno, only
two words, "Father saved," "mothor
saved," son saved," "daughter saved."
And "thoro is joy in heaven among
tho angols of God ovor ono siunoi
that ropontoth."
TIIK SALVATION OF THE 800L.
My Bubjoct also impim mo with
tho fact that tho salvation of tho sold
is of vast importanco. U you should
make $200,000 this year, do yoa sup
pose that nowH would bo carried to
heavon? It would not bo of enough
importanco or significance to bo car
ried heavonward. If at tho next
quadrennial election you nro mado
prcsidont of the United States, do you
supposo tliat nows would bo carriod
to heavon? Do you aupposo that tho
news of a revolution in Franco or
Spain would bo carried to hoavon?
Thooo things aro not of enough im
portanco; but there is ono item tliat
is sure to ho earned. It is tho balvn
tion of your bouI ; it is your repont
anco beforo God.
Tho Hying hoofs of God's couriora
clash through tho gates and tho uows
goes from gate to mansion and from
mansion to tomplo and from tomplo
to throno, ond "tliere Is jov in
heavon" among tho angols of God
ovor ono sinnor forgiven. It must bo
of vast importance to bo of any mo
ment in hoavon, your salvation in
that land whore gladnesses are tho
overyday occurroneo in that land
where tho common Btonea of tho field
aro josporand omondd iuhI chryso
prasuH and carbuncle and wirdonyx.
And yot tho news of your salvation
makcfl joy before tho throno of God.
You remombor years ago a slngo

Tho supremo court of tlu United

Do you wonder that so many of
these Christian pooplo havo toiled
night and day in this work of soul
saving, if it in of such vast impor
tance? Do you wonder that Ntttlo
ton and Finloy and Bishop Asbury
and John Wcsloy and George WiUto
fiold and Paul and angels and Christ
und God stripped themselves f or the
work? Around that one soul circles
tlio mist, tho firo. the darkness thn
joy. tho anthem, tho wailing, tho
hallelujah and tlio woo of God's' uni
verse. If tho soul is Baved, than Up
cuuius ro trumpoiana lingers to liarp
and hammer to bell and "thero is
joy among tho angttlsof God over
that one bouI forgiven." For such a
soul I plead.
RELIGION A COMFORT AND A JOV.
Having found in my own experi
ence that this religion is a comfort
and a joy, Island here to commend
it to y ju. La tho days of my infancy
j. v.as carnea Dy unnsuan pareiics to
tho houso of God, and consecrated in
baptwm to the Father, and the Son,
nnd tno Holy Ghost; but tliat did
not Bavo mo. In after timo I was
taught to knee; ut tho Christian
family altar w.ui father and mother
and brothors and sisters, the most of
tnem now m glory; but that did not
6avo mo.
In after timo I read Doddridge's
"Rise and Progress" and Baxter's
"Call to tho Unconverted," and all
tho religious books around my fa
ther's household, but that did not
savo mo. But ono day tho voico of
Christ camo into my heart, saying,
"Kopont, repont; beliovo, believe,"
and I accepted tho offer of mercy,
and though no doubt thoro wits more
joy in heaven ovor the conversion of
other souls becauso of their far reach
ing influenco, I verily beliovo when I
gavo my heart to God thero were
some spirits in heaven tlio gladder
for tho deed. "Thero is joy in heaven
among the angels of God ovor one
sinnor that repentoth."
Turn this day to tho Lord who
bought you. Lot this wholo audi
onco surrender themselves to Jesus
Christ. If for ten, twenty, fifty
years you havo not prayed, begin
now to pray. "Oh," you Bay, "I can't
pray." Can you not say, "God, bo
merciful to mo, a sinner ?' "No,"
you say, "I can't say that." Then
can you not look to tho throno of
mercy? "No," you say, "I can't
look up."
Can you not then givo somo signal
like that which was givon by tho lad
in the hospital? Ho was sick and
sufforing and dying, aud wanted
speedily to go away from all suffering
and pain, and ho said to his comrades
in tho hespital: "It is strange to mo
that Jesus doesn't Bee mo whon ho
goes through here nights and takes
others to himself. Ho coe3 through
hero, and lip doosn't see mo. I must
bo asleep, and ho doesn't know I
want to go.
"Now, I toll you how I'll arrango
it. I'll go to sloop with my hand up,
and tlion whon Jesus come3 through
tho hospital by night ho will soe my
hand lifted, and ho will know by that
I want to go with him." So it was
done. For that night Jebus went
through tho hospital and took tho
sufforing lad, and tho not morning
the uurso paining through tho wards
of tho hospital b.v.vudoud hand lifted
braced on ono sido ajjainst tho pillow,
nnd tho loft hand holding tlio elbow
of tho right mm. Jehus had seen
tlio signal and uusworcd it. O sick
soul, wounded eoul, dying boul, canst
thou nt givo somo signal ? Wilt thou
not lift one hand or ono prayer? God
grant that this day there may be joy

Here is an incident from the South
Mississippi, written in April, 1890,
just after the Grippe had visited that
country. "lam a farmer, one of
those who have to rise early and
work late. At the beginning of last
Winter I was on a trip to the City
of Vicksburg, Miss.,where I gotwell
drenched in a shower of rain. I
went home and was soon after seized
with a dry, hacking cough. This
grew worse every day, until I had
to seek relief. I consulted Dr. Dixon
who has since died, and he told me
to get a bottle of Boschee's German
Syrup. Meantime my cough grew
worseand worse and then the Grippe
came along and I caught that also
very severely. My condition then
compelled me to do something. I
got two bottles of German Syrup. I
began using them, and before taking
much of the second bottle, I wa3
entirely clear of the Cough that had
hung to me so long, the Grippe, and
all its bad. ehects. I lelt tip-top and
have felt that way ever since."

The T.lmlls of tho modern Drama.
Tlio debate at tho London Play
goers' club on Tuesday evening was
remarkably interesting, llr. R. Jepo
Slade's paper on "Conventionality in
Art" was an excellent plea for good,
sound, old fashioned notions, as op
posed to tho fads of the hour. Mr.
David Chrifatio Murray, tlio chair
man, delivered an oration which con
tained not a few well dealt blows at
the "naturalistic young gentleman."
Well said and to bo remembered was
the following admirable sentence:
"Thero are," said he, "phases of lifo
and thought with which tho drama
tist should havo nothing to do. Any
thing which wo could not possibly
discuss beforo a mixed company in
private ought not to bo dramatized
before a mixed company in public."
