Long before the Now Testament made reference to tho ame thyst in the wall of heaven the Tertians thought that cups made out of amethyst would hinder Any kind of liquor con felnedthereitf from becoming intoxicat ing. Tint 6f all the amothystlno cups 'from which tho ancients drank not one had any sueh result of prevention. For thousands of years tho world has been looking bi rain for such a prevent ive amethystine cnp. Staggering Noah could nofflnd it. Convivial Ahosucms driving Vashtl from tho gates could not find it, TJabal breaking tho heart of beautiful Abigail could not find it. Bd shazzar, tho kingly rovoler, on the night tliat tho Chaldeans took Babylon conld not find Jt. Not ono of tho millions of inebriates whoso skulls pave the conti nents and pavo the deptlis of tho sea could find it. There is no such cup. Strong drink from hollowed nmothyst imbrutcs tho satno as strong drink from pewter mug. It Is not tho stylo of cup wo drink out df, but that which tho cup contains, which decides tho helpful or damning result of tho bovcrago. All around tho world last night nnd today, out of cups costlier than nmo thyBt,rnon nnd women havo been drink ing their own doom nnd tho doom of their chlldron for this Ufo and tho next. All, it is tho amothystino cupq that do tho wildest and worst slaughterl Tho smash of tho filthy goblots of tho rum merics would long ago havo taken place by law, but tho amethystine chalices prevent tho chalices out of which leg islatures and congresses drink boforonnd after thoy mako tho laws, Amethys tlno chalices havo been tho friends of in toxication instead of its foes. Ovor tho fiery lips of tho nraethystlno chalices is thrust tho tongiio of that which biteth llko a serpent and stingeth llko an adder. Drunkcnuoss is a combination of apo plexy and domontla. Tho 400,000,000 victims of oplnm corao out to meet tho 100,000,000 victlmB of alcohol, and tho two agents tako tho contract for tum bling tho human raco into perdition, but whether thoy will succcod in fulfilling tho contract depoudd on tho action of tho amethystine cups, tho amethystino demijohns, tho amethystino alo pitchers, tho amothystino flagons, tho amothystino wino collars. Oh, Persians! Oh, Assyr ians! Oh, Greeks! Oh, Egyptians! you were wrong in thinking tliat n cup of amethyst would prevent inobriation. TIIK IIKIIREW BUraiOTmON. But standing on tho top of this ame thystino layer of tho foundation of tho wall of heaven I bothink myself of tho mlutako that many of tho ancient no brows mado when they thought that the amethyst was a producer of pleasant dreams, Just wear a plcco of amethyst over your heart or put it under your pillow, nnd you would hnvo your dreams filled with everything beautiful nnd en trancing. No, no. Tho stylo of pillow will not decido tho churacter of tho dream. Tho only recipo for pleasant dreams is to do right and think right when you nro wldo awake. Conditions of phys ical disease mny give a good man night mare, but iv man physically well, if he behnvo himself aright, will not bo trou bled with bad dreams. Nobuchadnezzar, with eaglo's down under his head and Tyrian purplo over it, struggled with a bad dream that made Win shriek out for tho soothsayers and astrologers to como and interpret it. Pharaoh, amid tho marblo palaces of Memphis, was confoundod by a dream in which lean cows nto up tho fat cows and tho small ears of corn dovoured the Bovcn largo ears, and awful famino was prefigured. Pilate's wife, amid clouds of richest upholstery, had n startling dream, beeauso of which sho sent a mes sage in hot hasto to a courtroom to keep her husband rrom enacting a judicial outrage. Unt Jacob, at Bethel, with a pillow of mountain rock, had a blissful dream of tho ladder angel blossoming. Bunynn, with his head on a hard plank of Bedford jail, saw tho gates of tho celestial city. St. John, on tho bar renest island of tho JCgcnu sea, in his dream heard trumpets and saw cavalry men on whlto horses and a now heaven and n new earth. No amount of rough pillow can disturb tho night vMon of n saint, and no amount of amethystino charm can deleetato tho dream of n mis creant. But, somo ono will say, why havo you brought us to this amethyst, tho top row of tho foundation of tho heavenly wall, if you nro not nblo to accept tho theory of tho ancient Greeks, who said that tho amolhyst wns a charm against intoxica tion, or If you nro not willing to accept tho theory of tho Ancient Hebrews that the amethytt wus a producer of pleasant dreams? My answer is, I havo brought you to tho top row, tho twelfth layer of tho foundation of tho heavenly wall of 1,800 miles of circling amethyst, to put you in a position w hero yon can get a now idea of heaven; to let you eo that after yon havo climbed up twelve strata of glory yon tire only at tho Iumj of the eternal grandeurs; to let you, with en chantment of soul, look fur down and look far up. nnd to force upon you tho conclusion that ir alt our climbing lias only shown us tho foundations of the wall, whttt must tho wall itself bo; nnd if this is tho outside of heaven, whnt must tho Insldo bo; and if all this is fig urative, what mutt tho reality be? mmc d wmmimimmmmmmmmmmn 1 - r -- - .

Five of them woro pre sented by Cortex to his biide, ono of thorn cut Into tho nhapo of a roso, anoth er Into tho shape of a trumiet, another into tho shapo of n boll, with tongue of pearl, nnd this presentation aroused tho jeulousy of tho throno and caused the consequent downfall of Corte.

Oh, my soul! If my text shows ua only tho outside, what must tho insido be? Whllo riding last summer through tho emperor's park, near St. Petersburg, 1 was captivated with the groves, trans planted from all zones, and tho flower bods miles this way and miles tliat way incarnadined with beauty, and the fountains bounding in such revel with tho sunlight as nowhere clso is seen, I said: "This is beautiful. I novcr saw anything liko thia before." But when I entered tho palacoand saw the pictured walls, and tho long lino of statuary, and aquariums afloat with all bright scale1?, nnd aviaries a-cliant with bird voices, and tho inner doora of tho palaco wero swung bark by the cham berlain, and I saw tho emperor and em press nnd princes and princesses, and they greeted me with a cordiality of old acquaintanceship, I forget all tho groves and floral bowitchment I had seen ont sido beforo entrance. And now I ask, if tho outsido of heaven attracts our soula today, how much moro will bo tho up lifting when wo get insido nndseo the King in hia beauty nnd all tho princes and princesses of tho palaces of ame thyst? Aro you not glad that wo did not stop in our ascent this morning until we got to tho top round of tho foundation wall of heaven, tho twelfth row, tlio ame thyst? Perhaps the ancient Hebrews wero not, after all, so far out of tho way when they thought that tho touch of tho amethyst gavo pleasant dreams, for tho touch of it this hour gives me a very pleasant dream.

Yonder is tho playground of tho children. Children do not wanta throno. A throno would not fit a child. Thoro thoy aro on tho playgrounds of heaven tho children. Out of tho sick cradlo of earth thoy camo into this romping mirth of tho eternal play grounds. I clap my hands to cheer them in tho gleo. Yonder aro tho palaces of tho martyrs, and beforo their doorway tho flowers, crimson as tho bloody mar tyrdoms through which they waded up into glory. Yonder is Apostolic row, and tho highest turret is over tho homo of Paul. Hero is Evangelist place. Yon der nro tho concert halls in which tho musicians of eartli nnd heaven nro tak ing part Handel with organ, and David with harp, nnd Gabriel with trumpet, and four and twenty ciders with voices. And nn angel of God says: "Whero shall I tako yon? On what street of heaven would you llko to live? What cclestiul habitation would you liko to occupy?" And I answer: "Now that 1 havo got insido tho wall mado up of all manner of precious stones I do not caro whoro you put 1110. Just show mo whero my departed loved ones nro.
