BbOOELYX, April 10. This clay is rcc
ognlzed as Palm Sunday throughout tin
world, and that fact gavo direction U
Dr. Talmage'B senaon. Among Uh
hymns sung was the hymn ,
Clad In raiment pore and white,
Victor palms In every band.

him.-
How wis that possible? flow could
palm branches be cast in the way of
Christ as ho approached Jerusalem;
There nnj scarcely any palm trees in
central Palestine. Even tho one that
was carefully guarded for many year
at Jericho has gone. 1 went over the
very road by which Christ approached
Jerusalem, and there are plenty of olive
trees and fig trees, but no. palm trcc
that I could see. You must rcinembo
that tho climate lias changed. The palm
tree likes water, but by tho cutting down
of the forests, which are leafy prayer -for
rain, the land has become unfriend;
to tho palm tree. Jericho onco stood in
botch mile3 of palm grovo. Olivet vx
crowned with palms. The Dead sea ha
on its banks the trunks of palm tree:
that floated down from eoino old tiuu
p-ibn grove, and are preserved from de-cs-y
ly me fi.;lt which they received from
- the De .d sea. Let woodmen fcpare th(
trees of America, if they would not ruin
oudy chango tho climate and bring to

Arb-ir Day, which plants trees, trying to
nimn. f .- tho ruthlessness which lias de
Blroytdthem. Yes, my text is in har
mony with tho condition of that country
oa the morning of Palm Sunday. About
throe million people have come to Jern
Btsioin to ftttcud tho religious festivities.
Great nowsl "Jesus will enter Jerusalem
tc lay. Tho sky is red with tho morn
ing, and tho people nro flocking out to
tho foot of Olivet, and up and on over
tho southern ehoulder of tho mountain,
and tho procession coming out from the
city meets the procession escorting Christ
as ho comes toward tho city. There is n
turn irt tho road, whero Jerusalem sud
denly bursts upon the vision.
Wo had ridden that day all the way
from Jericho and had visited tho ruins
of tho house of Mary and Martha and
Lazarus, and were somewhat weary of
Bight seeing, when there suddenly arose
beforo our vision Jerusalem, tho reli
gious capital of all Christian ages. That
yraa the point of observation where my
test comes in. Alexander rodo Buceph
alus, Duko Elio rode his famous Marche
gay, Sir Henry Lawrence rodo tho high
mottled Conrad, Wellington rodo his
proud Copenhagen, but tho conqueror
of earth and heaven rides a colt, ono
that had been tied at tho roadside. It
was unbroken, and 1 have no doubt
fractious at tho vociferation of tho popu
lace An extemporized saddlo made out
of tho garments of tho people was put
on tho beast. Whilo somo peoplo
gripped tho bridle of tho colt, othera
reverently waited upon Christ at tho
mounting. Tho two processions of peo
plo now become ono thoso who came
out of tho city and thoso who came over
tho hill. Tho orientals nro more de
monstrative than wo of tho western
world, their voices louder, their gesticu
lations more violent, and the symbols
by which they express their emotions
more significant. Tho peoplo who left
Phocea in tho far east, wishing to mako
impressive that they would never re
turn, took a red hot ball of iron and
threw it into tho sea and said they
would nover return to Phocea until that
ball rose and floated on tho surface. Do
not surprised, therefore, at tho demon
stration in tho text. As the colt with
its rider descends tho slope of Olivet,
the palm trees lining tho road aro called
upon to render their contribution to tho
eceno of welcomo and rejoicing. Tho
branches of theso trees nro high up, and
somo must needs climb tho trees and tear
off tho leaves and tlirow them down,
and others mako of theso leaves an em
erald pavemont for tho colt to tread on.
, TUB PALM TYPICAL OF TMOMPU.
Long beforo that morning tho palm
tree had been typical of triumph. Herod
otus and Strabo had thus described it.
Layard finds tho palm leaf cut in tho
walls of Nineveh with tho same signifi
cance. In the Greek athletio games tho
victors carried palms, 1 nm very glnd
that our Lord, who five days after had
thorns upon his brow, for u littlo while,
at least, had palms BtTOwn under his feet
Oh, the glorious palml Amarasinga, tho
Hindoo scholar, calls it "tho king among
tho grasses." Linumus calls it "tho
prineo of vegetation." Among nil tho
trees that ever cast a shadow or yielded
fruit or lifted tholr arms toward heaven,
it has no equal for multitudinous uses.
Do you want flowers? Ono ilui tree
will put forth a hanging garden of them

taining 07,000 blooms. Do you want
food? It is tho chief diet of whole na

gallons of honey, In Polynesia it is tho
ehief food of tho inhabitants. In India

says, "Bear fruit and put it within reach
of all the people." But to the palm two
he says, "Be garden and storehouse and
wardrobe and ropewalk and cliandlery
and bread and banquet and manufac
tory, and then be type of what I meant
when I inspired David, my servant, to
ay, 'The righteous shall flourish like a

when they aro asked for aseistanco by

Most of tho mysteries that bother others
do not bother mo becauBO I adjourn
them, but tho mystery that really both

ple who amount to nothing bo fur an the
world's betterment is concerned. Thoy
stand in tho way. They object. Ihcy
discuss hindrances. Thoy suggest pos
sibilities of failure. Over the road of
life instead of pulling in tho traces they

ble trees: thoy aro willows ah. ays
mourning, or wild cherry trees yicluing
only tho bitter, or crab applo trees pro
ducing only tho sour, while God would
havo us all llonrih liko tho palm tree.
Planted in tho Bible that tree always
means usefulness. But, how little any
of us or all of us accomplish in that di
rection. Ve take twenty or thirty
years to got fully ready for Christian
work, and in the after part of life we
tako ten or twenty years for the gradual
closing of aclivo work, and that leaves
only so littlo time between opening and
stopping work that all we accomplish is
so little an angel of God needs to exert
himself to see it at alL

that ever rolled through the churches

of tho composers, who wore their Uvea
out in writing tho harmony. American
independence waa triumphant, but it
moved on over the lifelecs forms of tens
of thousands of men who fell at Bunker

tho nation. Tho kingdom of God ad

over tho lives of missionaries who die of
malaria in the jungles or Christian
workers who preach and pray and toil
and die in the ecrvico. The Saviour tri
umphs in all directions but beauty and
strength must bo torn down from tho
palm trees of Christian heroism and con
secration and thrown in his pathway.
To what better uso could thoso palm
trees on the southern shoulder of Mount
Olivet and clear du-.rn into the Valley of
Gothscniano put their branches than to
surrender them for tho making of
Christ's journey toward Jerusalem tho
more picturesque, the more memorable

better use could wo put onr lives than
into the sacrifice forChrwt and hiscuu?o
and the happiness of our fellow crea

torn down that righteousness shall have
triumphant way? Christ was torn down
for us. Can we not afford to be torn
down for him? If Christ could suffer so
much for us, can wo not suffer a little
for Christ? If ho can afford on Palm
Sunday to travel to Jerusalem to carry
a cross, can wo not afford a few leaves
from our branches to make emerald his

A FEW LEAVES FROM OCR BRANCHES.
Tho process is going on every moment
in all directions. What makes that
father have such hard work to find tho
hymn today? He puts on bis spectacles
and holds tho book close up. aad then
holds it far off, and fa not quite snra
whether the number of the hymn is 130
or 130. and the fingers with wMch he
turns the leaves are very clumsy. He
stoops a good deal, althoogb. once fee- wxa

have cultivated the habit of forgetting
the tmpleafinnt tkingsof lif e, and I chiefly
remember the smooth things, ami as far
as I remember now my life has for the
most rart moved on over a road soft
with green leaves. They were torn off
two palm trees that stood at the start of
the road. The pTayers, the Christian ex
ample, the good advice.'tho bard work
of my father and mother. How they
toiled! Their fingers were knotted with
hard work. Their foreheads were wrin-'
kled with many cares. Their backs!
stooped from carrying our burdens. j
They long ago went into slumber
among their kindred and friends on the I
banks of the Raritan, but the influences j
they threw in the way of their children I
are yet green as leaves the moment they j
are plucked trom a palm tree, ana we
feel them on our brow and under our
feet and they will strew all the way
until we lio down in the same slumber.
Self eacrificel What a thrilling word!
Glad am I that our world has so many
specimens of it. The sailor boy on ship
board was derided because he would not
fight or gamble, and they called him a
coward. But when a child fell over
board and no one ilse was ready to help,
the derided sailor leaped into theea,
and, though the waves were rough, the
sailor swimming with ouo arm carried !
tho child on the other arm till rescued
and rescuer were lifted into safety, and
the cry of coward ceased and all huz
zaed at the sctue of daring and self
sacrifice.
When, recently, Captain Burton, the
great author, died, he left a scientific
book in manuscript, which ho expected
would be his wife's fortune. He often
told her so. He said, "This will make
you independent and affluent after 1 am
gone. He suddenly used, and it was
expected that the wife would publish
the book. One publisher told her he
could himself mako out of it $100,000.
Bet it was a book which, though written
srith pure scientific design, she felt would
do immeasurable damage to public
morals. With tho two large volumes,

A LAWFUL ROBBERY.
Notice tliat it was a beautiful and
lawful robbory of the palm tree that
helped mako up Christ's triumph on tho
road to Jerusalem that Palm Sunday,
Tho long, broad, gmm loaves that were
strewn undor tho feet of tho colt, and in
tho way of Christ wore torn off from tho
trees. What a pity, somo ouo might
say, that thoso stately and graceful trees
should bo despoiled. Tho sap cosed out

1 livelihood, her home, her chief worldly
resources under the best moral and re
ligious interests of the world,
now much are we wnxixo to give up?
How much are we willing to sacrifice
for others? Christ is again on the march,
not from Bethpage to Jerusalem, but for
tho conquest of the world. He will sure
ly take it, but who will furnish the palm
branches for the triumphant way? Self
sacrifice is the word. There is more
"money paid to destroy the world than to
save it. There aro more buildings put
up to ruin tho race than churches to
evangelize it. There is more depruved
literature to blast men than good litera
ture to elevate them. Oh, for a power
to descend upon us all like that which
whelmed Charles G. Finney with mercy,
when, kneeling in his law office, and be
foro ho entered upon his apostolic career
of evangelization, ho said: "The Holy
Ghost descended on me in a manner
that seemed to go through me, body and
soul. I could feel tho impression liko a
wave of electricity going through and
through me. Indeed it ceeined to como
in waves and waves of liquid love. It
Eecined like the breath of God. I can
recollect distinctly that it teemed to fan
mo liko iminen&o wing3. I wept aloud
with joy and lovo. Theto waves came
over me and over me ono after another,
and, until, I recollect, I ciied out, '1
shall dio if these waves continue to pass
over me.' I Baid, 'Lord, I cannot bear
any more.'" And, when a gentleman
came into tho office and iaid, "Mr. Fin
ney, you are in pain?" he replied, "No,
but so happy that I cannot live."
My hearers, tho time will como when
upon tho whole church of God will de
scend such an avalanche of blcsiiing, and
then tho bringing of tho world to God
will be a matter of a few years, perhaps
a few days or a few hours. Bide on, O
Christ! for tho ev.ingelizatiou of all
nations. Thou Christ who didst rido on
tho unbroken colt down tho aides of
Olivet, on tho white horse of eternal
victory rido through all untions, and
may wo, by our prayers and our self
sacrifices and our contributions and our
consecration, throw palm branches in
tho way. 1 clap my hands at tho coming
victory. I feel this morning as did tho
Israelites whon on their march from
Canaan; they came not under the shadow
of ono palm tree but of seventy palm
trees, standing in an oasis among a
dozen gushing fountains, or as the Book
puts it, "Twelve wells of water and three
score and ten palm trees."
Surely there aro more than seventy
such great and glorious souls present
today. Indeed it is a mighty grovo of
palm trees, and I feel something of tho
raptures which I shall feel when, our
last battle fought, and our la3t burden
carried, and our last tear wept, we shall
become ouo of the multitudes St. John
describes "clothed in white robes and
palms in their hands." Hail thou bright,
thou swift advancing, thou everlasting
Palm Sunday of tho skies! Victors over
sin and sorrow and death and um, from
tho hills and valloys of tho heavenly
Palestine, they have plucked tho long,
broad, green leaves, and all the ransomed
somo in gates of pearl, and some on
battlements of amethyst, and some on
streets of gold, and somo on seas of
sapphire, they shall stand in numbers
liko tho stars, in splendor liko tho mora,
waving their palms!
