There has teen a tendency1 in nil lands
and ages to-set apart certain days, plates
and occasions for dSpecintreligicras serv
ice, and to think that thd formed ihe
realm InVhicli religfon Was chiefly to
act. Nov, while holy-days and holy
places hayo their nsethey can never be
a snosutute for continuous exercise of
faith and prayer,
Ink)ther'words,-a -man cannot bo so
good a Christian on Sabbath that ho can
afford to bo a-worldling all tho, week. If
a Btearaer start for Southampton and
sail ono day in that direction and the
other six days sail in other directions,
how long before tho steamer Will get to
Southampton? Just as soon as the man
will get to heaven who sails on tho Sab
bath day toward hat which is good, and
the other six days of tho week sails to
ward tho world, tho flesh and tho devil.
You cannot eat so much at the Sabbath
banquet that you can afford religious
abstinence all the rest of the week.
GENUINE UELIOION NOT SPASMODIC.
Genuine religion is not spasmodic,
does not go by fits and starts, is not an'
attack of chills and fever now cold un
til your teeth chatter, now hot until
your bones ache. Genuine religion
marches on steadily, up steep hills and
along dangerous declivities, its eye over
on tho overlasting hills crowned with
the castles of tho blessed.
I propose, so far as God may help me,
to show you how wo may bring our re
ligion into ordinary lifo and practico it
in common things yesterday, today,
tomorrow.
And, in the first place, I remark, we
ought to bring-religion into our ordinary
conversation. A dam breaks, and two
or three villages aro submerged, a South
American earthquake swallows a city,
and peoplo begin to talk about the un
certainty of human life, and in that con
versation think they aro engaging in re
ligious servico when there may bo no re
ligion at all. I have noticed that in pro
portion as Christian experience is shal
low men talk about about funerals and
deathbeds and hearses nnd tombstones
and epitaphs.
If a man havo the religion of the gos
pel in its full power in his soul, ho will
talk chiefly about this world and the
eternal world and very little compara
tively about the insignificant pass be
tween this and that. Yet how Beldom
it is that tho religion of Christ is a wel
come theme! If a man full of the gospel
Jf Christ goes into a religious circle and
begins to talk about sacred things, all
tho conversation is hushed, and things
become exceedingly awkward. As on a
summer day, the forests full of song and
chirp and carol, mighty chorus of bird
harmonies, every branch an orchestra,
if a hawk appears in tho sky, all the
voices are hushed, so I have sometimes
seen a social circle that professed to be
Christian silenced by the appearance of
the great themo of God and Teligion.
Now, my friends, if we have the reli
gion of Christ in our soul, wo will talk
about it in nn exhilarant mood. It is
more refreshing than tho waters.it is
brighter than the sunshine, it gives a
mait joy hero and prepares him for ever
lasting happiness before the throne of
God. And yet, If tho theme of religion
be introduced into a circle, everything
la silenced silenced unless perhaps an
aged Christian man in the corner of tho
room, feeling that something ought to bo
said, puts ono foot over tho other and
sighs-heavily and says, "Oh, yes: that's
sol"
My friends, tho religion of Jesus Christ
is not something to bo groaned about,
but something to 'talk, about and sing
ubqut, your faco irradiated. The trouble
is that men professing tho faith of the
gospel aro often so inconsistent that
they are afraid their conversation will
not harmonize witli their life. Wo' can
not talk the gospel Unless we live the
gospel. You will often find a man whoso
entire lifo is full of Inconsistencies fill
ing his conversation with such expres
sions as, "We are miserable sinners,"
"The Lord help us," "The Lord bless
you," interlardinjj their conversation
with such phrases, which are mere cant
ing, and canting is the worst kind of
hypocrisy.
If a man havo tho grace of God in his
heart dominant, ho can talk religion, and
it will seem natural, and men, instead
of being repulsed by It, wtTf be attracted
by it. Do you not know that when two
Christian people talk as they ought about
the things of Christ and heaven Gotf
gives special attention, and ho writes It
all down. Malachi ill. 16, "Then they
that feared the Lord talked One toHhe
other, and the Lord hearkened and heard,
and a book of remembrance was writ
ten." UELIOION IN KVEKYDAY AFFAIRS.
But I remark again, wo ought to bring
tha religion of Jesus Christ into our or
dinary employments. "Oh," you say,
"that's a very good theory for a man who
mauagea a largo business, whohaa .great
traffic, who holds a great estate it Is a
grand thing for bankers and for ship
persbut In my thread and needle store,
in my trimming establishment, in my in
significant work of life, you cannot ap
ply those grand gospel principles.' Who
Do you not know wai a
cant thing ill your lifo is of enough im
portance to nttradl the attention of the
Lord GorttAlinighty?
My brother, yott cannot bo called to
do anything so insignificant but God
will help you in it. If you are a fisher
man, Christ will stand by you as ho did
by Simon when he dragged Geunesaret.
Are you a drawer of water? He will
te with you as at the well curb when
talking with the Samaritan woman.
Aro you a custom house officer? Christ
will call you as he did Matthew at the
receipt of custom. The man who has
wily a day's wages in his pocket as cer
tainly needs religion us he who rattles
the keys of a bank and could abscond
with a hundred thousand hard dollars.
And yet there are men who profess the
religion of Jesus Christ who do not bring
the religion of the gospel into their ordi
nary occupations and employments.
There are in tho churches of this day
men who seem very devout on the Sab
bath who arr far from that durinir the
week. A country merchant arrives in
this city, and he goes into tho store to
buy goods of a man who professes reli
gion, but has no grace in his heart. The
country merchant is swindled. He is too
exhausted to go home that week; he tar
ries in town. On Sabbath he goes to
some church for consolation, and what
is his amazeineht to find that the man
who carries around the poor box is tho
very ono who swindled him. But never
mind. Tho deacon has his black coat on
now and looks solemn and goes home
talking about that blessed sermon! Chris
tians on Sunday. Worldings during the
weeic.
OOD SEES SMALL SINS.
That man does not realize that God
knows every dishonest dollar ho has in
his pockot, that God is looking right
through tho iron wall of his money safe,
and that the day of judgment is coming,
and that "as the partridge sitteth on
eggs and hatcheth them not, so he that
getteth riches iflnd. not' by right shall
leave them in the midst of his days, and
at his end shallebe a fool." But how
many there are who do not bring the
religion of Chust into their everyday
occupation. They think religion is for
Sundays.
Suppose you were to go out to fight
for your country in some great contest,
would you go to do the battling at Troy
or at Springfield? No, you would go
there to got your swords and muskets.
Then you would go out in tho face of the
enemy anu contend for your country.
Now, I take the Sabbath day and the
church to be only the armory where we
are to get equipped for the groat battle
of life, and that battlefield is Monday,
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Fri
day and Saturday. "Antioch," and "St.
Martin's" and "Old Hundred" are not
"worth much if wo do not sing all the
week. A sermon is of little account if
we cannot carry it behind tho counter
and behind the plow. The Sabbath day
is of no value if it last only 24 hours.
"Oh," says some one, "if I had a great
sphere, I would do that. If I could have
lived in the time of Martin Luther, if I
could havo been Paul's traveling com
panion, if I had some great and resound
ing work to do, then I should put into
application all that you say." I must
admit that tho romanco and knight er
rantry havo gone out of life. Thero is
but very little of it left in tho world.
The temples of Rouen havo been changed
into smithies. The classic mansion at
Ashland has been cut up into walking
sticks. The muses have retreated be
fore tho emigrant's ax and tho trapperV
gun, and a Vermonter might go over the
Alleghany and the Rocky mountains and
see neither an Oread nor a Sylph.
The groves whero tho gods used to
dwell have been cut up for firewood, and
the man who is looking for great spheres
and great scenes for action will not find
them. And yet there are Alps to scale,
and there are Hellespont to swim, and
they are in common life. It is absurd
for you to say that you would serve God
if you had a great sphere. If yon do not
serve him on a small scale, you would
not on a large scale. If you cannot
stand tho bite of a midge, how could you
endure the breath of a basilisk?
A TARIFF ON ANNOYANCES.
Our national government does not
thing it belittliug to put a tax on pins
and a tax on buckles and a tax on shoes.
Tho individual taxes do not amount to
much, but in the aggregate to millions
and millions of dollars. And I would
have you, oh, Christian man, put a high
tariff on every annoyance and vexation
that cornea through .your soul. This
might not amount to much in single
coses, but in the aggregate u wouiu ue a
great revenue of spiritual strength and
satisfaction.
A bee can suck honey even out of a
nettle, and if you havo the grace of God
in your heart you can get sweetness out
of that which would otherwise irritate
and annoy. A returned missionary told
mo that a company ot adventurers row
ing up tho Ganges were stung to death
by flies that infest that region at certain
seasons. I have seen the earth strewn
with tho carcasses of men slain by insect
annoyances. The ouly way to get pre
pared for the great troubles of life is to
conquer these small troubles.
. Suppose a soldier should say, "Tills Is
only a skirmish, and there aro only a
few enemies I won't load my gun; wait
until I get into some great general en
gagement," That man is a coward and
would be a coward in any sphere. If a
man does not serve his country in a
skirmish, he will not in a Waterloo. And
if you aro not faithful going out against
the single handed misfortunes of this
life you would not" be faithful when
great disasters with their thundering ar
tillery caraa rolling down over the soul.
This brings me to another point Wo
ought to bring the religion of Jesus
Christ into all our trials. If we have a
bereavement, if we lose our fortune, If
some irreat trouble blast nice me tew
anxieties, you havo your vexations.
"Oh," you say, "they don't Bhapo my
character. Sinco I lost my child, since
I havo lost my property, I havo been n
very different man from what I was."
My brother, it is tho little annoyances
of your life that aro souring your dis
position, clipping your moral character
and making you less and less of a man.
you go into an artist's studio. You
see him making a iricco of scuinturo.
You say, "Why don't vou strike hard
er?" With his mallet and his chiel he
goes click, click, click! aud you can
hardly see from stroke to Btroko that
there is any impression made upon tho
ftone, and yet tho work is going on.
You say, "Why don't you strike harder?"
"Oh!" he replies, "that would shatter
the statuo. I must make it in this way,
stroko by stroke." And ho continues on
by week and month until after awhilo
every man that enters tho studio is fas
cinated. Well, I find God dealing with some
man. He is shaping him for timo and
shaping him for eternity. I say, "0
Lord, why not with ono tremendous blow
of calamity shapo that man for tho next
world?" God says, "That's not the way
I deal with this man; it is stroke after
stroke, annoyance after annoyance, ir
ritation after irritation, and after awhilo
ho will be done and a glad spectacle for
angels and men."
THE DAY OF SMALL TIUNGS.
Not by one great stroke, but by ten
thousand little strokes of misfortune aro
men fitted for heaven. You know that
largo fortunes can soon bo scattered by
being paid out in small Bums of money,
and the largest estate of Christian -character
is sometimes entirely lost by these
small depletions.
Wo must bring the religion of Jesus
Christ to help us in theso little aunoy
ances. Do not say that anything is too
insignificant to affect your character.

match may destroy a temple. A queen
got her death by smelling of a poisoned
rose. The scratch of a sixpenny nail
may give you tho lockjaw. Columbus,
by asking for a piece of bread and n
drink of water at a Franciscan convent,
came to the discovery of a new world.
And thero is a great connection between
trifles and immensities, between noth
ings and every things.
Do you not supposo that God cares for
your insignificant sorrows? Why, my
friends, there is nothing insignificant in
your life. How daro you tako tho re
sponsibility of saying that thero is? Do
you not know that the whole universe is
not ashamed to tako care of one violet? I
say: "What are you doing down thero
in the grass, poor little violet? Nobody
knows you aro here. Aro you not afraid
nights? You will dio with thirst. No
body cares for you. You will suffer; you
will perish." "No," says a star, "I'll
watch over it tonight." "No," says the
cloud, "I'll give it drink." "No," says
tho sun, "I'll wnrm it in my bosom."
And then the wind rises and comes
bending down tho grain and sounding
its psalm through tho forest, and I say,
"Whither away, O wind, on such swift
wing?" and it answers, "I am going to
cool tho check of that violet." And then
I see pulleys at work in tho sky, and tho
clouds are drawing water, and I say,
"What are you doing thero, O clouds?"
They Bay, "Wo nre drawing water for
that violet." And then I look down into
tho grass, and I say, "Can it bo that God
takes enre of a poor thing liko you?" and
tho answer comes up, "Yes, yes; God
clothes tho grass of tho field, and he lia?
never forgotten me, a roor violet." Oh,
my friends, if tho heavens bend down to
such insignificant ministry as that, I tell
you God is willing to bend down to your
case, sinco ho is just as careful about
the construction of a spider's cyo as he
is in the conformation of flaming gal
axies. Plato had a fablo which I havo now
nearly forgotten, but it ran something
liko this: He 6aid spirits of the other
world came back to this world to find a
body and find u sphero of work. One
spirit came and took the body of a king
and did his work. Another spirit came
and took the body of a poet and did his
work. After awhile Ulysses came, and
he said: "Why, all tho fino bodies are
taken, and all tho grand work is taken
There is nothing left for me." And some
one replied, "Ah, tho best one has been
left for you." Ulysses said, "What's
that?" And tho reply was, "The body
of a common man, doing a common
work and for a common reward," A
good fable for the world and just as
good fable for the church.
But, I remark again, we ought to
bring the religion of Jesus Christ into
our ordinary blesaiugs. Every autumn
tho president of the United States and
the governors make proclamation, and
wo uro called together In our churches
to givo thanks to God for his goodness.
But every day ought to bo a thanksgiv
ing day. We tako most of the blessings
of life as a matter of course. Wo have
had ten thousand blessings this morning
for which we havo not thanked God,
Before the night comes wewillhaven
thousand more blessings you will never
think of mentioning before God.
HOW TO AITBECJATK OUK BLESSINGS.
We must see a blind man led along by
his dog beforo we learn what a grand
thing it Is t have one's eyesight. We
must see a man with St. Vitus' dance be
fore we learn what a grand thing it is
to have the use of our physical energies?
We must ceo some soldier crippled, limp
ing along on his cruteh or his empty
coatsleeve pinned up, before wa learn
what a grand thing it is to have-the use
of all our physical faculties. In other
words, we are so stupid that nothing but
the misfortunes of others can wako ns
up to an appreciation of our common
blessings.
We get on board a train and start for
Boston and come to Norwalk bridge,
and the "draw" is off and crash! goes tho
train. Fifty lifts dahed out We es
cape. We come home in great excite
ment and call our friends around us, and
they congratnlata us. and wo all kueel
down aud thank God for our escape
whilo so many perished. Bt tomorrow
morning you get on a train of cars for
iv-tin. Yon cross that bridge at Nor-
all the oiuer pnajesj
youtet tn Boston m eaieiy. luenyou
return home. Not'an accident, not an
alarm. No thanks.
In other words, you seem to bo moro
grateful when 50 people lose their lives
and you 'get off than you aro grateful to
God when you all got off and yon havo
no alarm at all. Now, you ought to lie
thankful when you escapo from accident,
but moro thankful whon they all escape.
Inthoonocaso your gratltudo i3 some
what selfish; in tho other it is more like
what It ouuht to be.
Oh, thepo common mercies, thesu
common blessings, how little wo appre
ciate them and how soon wo forgot
thcini Liko tho ox grazing, with tho
clover up to its eyes, liko tho bird pick'
ing the worm out of the furrow never
thinking to thank God, who makes tho
grass grow and who gives lifo to every
living thing from tho aninialculro in tho
sod to tho seraph on tho throno. Thauks
giving on tho 27th of November, in tho
autumn of tho yrar, but blessings hour
by hour ana uay Dy uay and no thanks
at all.
I compared our indifference to tho
brute, but porhaps I wronged tho brute. 1
J. ilo not know but that among its other
mstlnctait may have an instinct by which
it recognizes the divine hand that feeds
it. I do not know but that God la
through it holding communication with
what wo call "irrational creation.'' Tho
cow that stands under the willow by tho
water course chowing its cud looks very
thankful, nnd who can tell how much a
bird means by its song? Tho aroma of
the flowers smells liko inconse, and tho
miBt arising from tho river looks liko tho
smoke of a morning sacrifice. Oh, that
wo wero as responsive!
If you wero thirsty and asked mo for
drink and I gavo you this glass of water,
your common instinct would reply,
"Thank you." And yet, how many
chalices of mercy we get hour by hour
from tho hand of the Lord, our Father
and onr King, nnd wo do not oven think
to say, "Thank you." Mord just to men
than wo aro just to God.
INGRATITUDE.
Who thinks of thanking God for tho
water gushing up in tho well, foaming
in tho cascade, laughing over the rocks,
pattering in tho shower, clapping its
hands n the sea? Who thinks to thank
God for thaff Who thinks to thank
God for tho air, tho fountain of life, the
bridgo of sunbeams, the path of sound,
tho great fan on a hot summer day?
Who thinks to thank God for this won
derful physical organism, this sweep of
vision, thia chime of harmony struck
into tho car, this crimson tide rolling
through artorios and veins, this drum
ming of tho heart on tho march of im
mortality? I convictmyself, and I convict every
ono of you whilo I say theso tilings, that
we nre unappreciativo of the common
mercies of life. And yet if they were
withdrawn; the heavens would withhold
i heir rain, and the earth would crack
open uuder our feet, and famino nnd
desolation and sickness and woe would
stalk across tho earth, and tho wholo
eurth would become n plaao of skullB.
Oh, my friends, let us wako up to an
appreciation ot tho common mercies of
life. Let every day bo n Sabbath, every
meal a sacrament, evory room a holy of
hollos. Wo all have burdens to bear; let
us cheerfully bear them. Wo all haye
battles to fight; let ua courageonsly fight
them.
If we want to dio right, wo must livo
right. You go homo and attend to your
littlo Bphero of duties. I will go homo
and attend to my littlo sphere of duties.
You cannot do my work; I cannot do
your work. Negligenco nnd indolence
will win the hiss of overlasting scorn,
while faithfulness will gather its gar
lands and wave its scepter and sit upon
its throno long after tho world has put
on ashes and eternal ages havo begun
their march.

The white tietnla of tho flowers stretch

There has lately been organized a rent
guarantee company, tho business of
which is to iusure landlords against loss
by bad tenants.

makes a business of keeping Informed as
to the standing of tenants, and for aeon
ti'icratiou landlords are supplied with
lufunnatiou which often enables them to
keep nndecirable tenants out of their
houses.

two or three companies way be neces
sary before rates can be correctly estab
lished and the business placed on a pear
