WA him,ton, April 17.—1 n this dis
cotiroe Dr. Talmage sets forth the goodness
and wisdom of God in the construction of
tie humali ear arid extols music and en
conragi s prayer; text. Psalms xciv, 9, “lie
that planted the ear, shall ho hot hear?"
Architorture is one of tho most fascinat
ing arts, and the study of Egyptian, Grc
n, Etni.-ican, Roman, Byzantine, Moor
ish Renaissance styles of building has
Is-en to many a man a sublime life work.
Lincoln and York cathedrals, St. Paul’s
and St. Peter’s and arch of Titus nnd
1 hoban temple and Alhambra nnd Par
thenon are the monuments to the genius
these who built them. But more won
derful than any arch they- ever lifted or
any tran-.ept window they ever illumined
nr .my Corinthian column they ever crown
ed or any Gothic cloister they ever elafi
orated is the human ear.
’Among tho most skillful and assiduous
physiologists of our time have Ixien those

ti' ii of the ear ami study of its arches,

its galleri<>s, its intricacies, its convolu
tions. irs divine machinery, and yot it
will take another thousand years before
tho world comes to auy adequate apprecia
tion of what God did wh< n ho planned and
<iiit. <1 tho infinite and overmastering
architecture of tho human oar. The most
of it is invisible, and thomicroscope breaks
down in the attempt at exploration. The
cartihigo which wo call tho ear is only tho
storm door ut the great temple, clear down
out of sight, next door to the immortal
Such scientists as Helmholtz and Conte
and Do Blalnviile and Rank and Buck
have attempted to walk tho Appian way
of t h ■ human oar, but the mysterious path
way has never boon fully trodden but by
two I et—tho foot of sound and the foot
of God. Three ears on each side the head
—t li<! external ear, tho middle ear, the in
terna] ea r—but all connected by most won
derful telegraphy.
A Rock of Strength.
Tho external ear in all ages adorned by
pn i.ioUH wtotie. or precious metals. Tho
temple of ,h i ii. alom partly built by tho
contribution of earrings, and Homer in the
"Iliad” ; i al;s of Hora, "the three bright
drops, her glittering gems suspended from
the tar," and many of tho adornmonts of
modern times wore only copies of her ear
jewels found in Pompeiian musoujn and
El rtiscan vase. But while the outer ear
may bo adorned by human art, the middle
nnd the internal ear are adorned and gar
nished only by tho hand of the Lord Al
mighty. Tho stroke of a key of yonder
organ sots tho air vibrating, and the ex
ternal ear catches tho undulating sound
and passes it on through tho bonelets of
the middle ear to the internal car, and tho
3,000 idlers of tho human brain take up
the vibration and roll the sound on into
tho soul. Tho hidden machinery of the
ear by physiologists called by the names
if things familiar to us, like the hammer,
something to strike; like tho anvil, some
thing tube smitten; like the stirrup of
the saddle with which wo mount tho
teed; like the drum, beaten in tho march;
ilke t he harpstrings, to bo swept with mu
sic. Colled like a "snail shell," by which
>no of tho innermost passages of tho ear
is actually called; like a stairway, tho
sound to ascend; like a bent tube of a
heating apparatus, taking that which en
ters round and round; like a labyrinth
■with wonderful passages into which tho
thought enters only to bo lost in bewilder
ment. ' A muscle contracting when tho
noise is too loud, just as tho pupil of the
eye contracts when the light is too glar
ing. The external oar is defended by wax
which with its bitterness discourages in
sect He invasion. The internal ear imbed
ded in by what is far tho hardest bone of
the human system, a very rock of strength
and defiance.
Thq oar sostrango a contrivance that by
ibo estimate of one scientist, it can catch
tho sound of 73,700 vibrations in a second.
Tho outer oar taking in all kinds of sound,
whether the crash of an avalanche or tho
‘num of a bee. Tho sound passing to tho
inner door of tho outside ear halts until
mother mechanism, divine mechanism,
passes it on by th® bonelots of tho middle
ear, nnd, coining to the inner door of that
ivond ear, tho sound has no power to
eomo farther until another divine mechan
ism p.i....es it on through into tho inner
car, and then tho sound comes to the rail
track of the brain branchlot and rolls on
ind on until it comes to sensation, and
there tho curtain drops, and a hundred
:.stes shut, and tho voice of God seems to
•:ay to all human inspection, "Thus far
and no farther."
Vestibule of the Soul.
In this vestibule of the palace of tho
soul hovv many kings of thought, of med
icine, of physiology, have done penance of
lifelong study and got no farther than the
vestibule! M;.■.-.terious homo of reverbera
tion and echo. Grand Central depot of
mind. Headquarters to which there come
i’.iick dispatches, part the way by carti
lages, part tho way by air, part the way
by bone, part the way by nerve—the slow
e<t dispatch plunging into (ho ear at tho
-peed of 1,090 a second. Small in
vi uniont of music on which is played all
;he music you over beard, from tho gran
lours of an August thunderstorm to tho
softest breathings of a flute. Small in
strument. of music, only a quarter of an
inch of surface and tho thinness of one
.* wo hundred and fiftieth part of an inch
and that thinness divided into three lay
ers. In that ear musical staff, lines,
spaces, bar anil rest. A bridge loading
from the outside natural world to the in
side spiritual world; we seeing the abut
ment at this end the bridge, but the fog
of an unlilted mystery hiding the abut
ment on the other end the bridge. Whis
pering gallery of tho soul. The human
voice is God’s eulogy tho ear. That voice
capable of producing 17,502,186,044,415
sounds, and all that, variety made, not for
the regalement of beast or bird, but for
ihe human ear.
About duycars ago, in Venice, lay down
In death one whom many considered the
greatest musical composer of tho century.
Struggling on up from 6 years of age, when
he was left fatherloss, Wagner rose through
the obloquy of tho world, and ofttimes all
nations seemingly against him, until ho
gained tho favor of a king and won the
enthusiasm of the opera houses of Europe
and America. Struggling all.the way on
to 70 years of age to conquer tho world’s
ear. In that same attempt to master the
human ear and gain supremacy over this
gate of the immortal soul, great battles
vi-ro fought by Mozart; Gluck and Weber,
::id by Beethoven ami Meyerbeer, by Ros
sini and by all the roll of Gorman and
ftalian and French composers, some of
hem in the battle leaving their blood on
ho keynotes and tho musical scores.
Treat battle fowght for the ear—fought
with baton, with organ pipe, with trum
pet, with corm t-a-piston. with all ivory
mil brazen and silver and golden weapons
f the orchestra; royal theater and cathe
dral and academy cf music tho fortresses
or the contest for the ear. Eiigland and
rg. pt fought for the supicmacy of the
-: iu z canal, and tho Spartans and the Par
ians fought for the defile at TbermopyLv,
• e.t the musicians of all ag«s have fought
or the mastery of the auditory canal and
.ho defile of the immortal soul and the
ihcrmopylm of struggling cadences.
Rapture* of Music.
For the conquest of the ear Haydn strug
gled on up from tho garret where he had
irtther fire nor food, on and on until tin
ier the too grvat nervous strain of hearing
sis own orat.uio of the "Creatiqn" per
ormed he was carried out to die, but
caving as bis legacy to tho world 118
-ymphonies, 163 pioc<is for tho baritone,
5 mo.“ses, 5 oratorios, 4:1 German and
Italian songs, 39 canons. 365 English and
Scotch songs with accompaniment and
1,536 pages of libretti. All that to cap
uro the gate c( the body that swings in
from tho tympanum to the "snail shell”
lying on the beach of tho ocean of the im
mortal soul. _ _____
To conquer th" ear Handel struggled on
from the time when bis father would not
let him go to school lest ho learn the gamut
and becomo a musician, and from the
time when he was allowed in the organ
loft just to play after the audience had left
to the time when he left to all nations his
uniiaralloled oratorios of “Esther,” “Deb
orah,” “Samson,” “Jephthah,” “Judas
Maccahaeus, ’’ "Israel In Egypt” nnd the
“Messiah,” tho soul of the great German
composer still weeping in the dead inarch
of our gn at obsequies and triumphing in
the raptures of every Easter morn.
To conquer the car and take this gate of
the immortal soul Schubert composed his
groat “Serenade,” writing tho staves of
the music on the bill of fare in a restau
rant. and went on until he could leave as
a legacy to the world over a thousand mag
nificent compositions in music. To con
quer the ear and take this gate of the
soul’s castle Mozart struggled on through
poverty until ho camo to a pauper’s grave,
and one chilly, wet afternoon the body of
him who gave to the world the "Requiem”
and the “G Minor Symphony” was
crunched in on tho top of two other pau
pers into a grave which to this day is
epitaphless.
God's Handiwork.
For tho oar everything mellifluous, from
the birth hour when our earth was wrap
ped in swaddling clothes of light and sere
naded by other worlds, from tho time
when Jubal thrummed tho first harp
and pressed a key of the first organ
down to tho music of this Sabbath day.
Yea, for the oar the coming overtures of
heaven, for whatever other part of the
body may be loft in the dust, the ear, we
know, is to como to celestial life; other
wise, why the " harpers harping with their
harps?” For the ear carol of lark and
whistle of quail and chirp of cricket and
dash of cascade and roar*of tides oceanic
and doxology of worshipful assembly and
minstrelsy, cherubic, seraphic and arch
angolic. For the ear all Pandean pipes,
all flutes, all clarinets, all hautboys, all
bassoons, all bells and all organs—Luzerno
and Westminster abbey and Freiburg and
Berlin and al! the organ pipes sst across
Christendom, the great Giant’s Causeway
for the monarchs of music to pass over.
For tho ear all chimes, all tickings of
clironomctors, all anthems, all dirges, all
glees, all choruses, all lullabies, all orches
tration. Oh, the ear, the God honored
ear, grooved with divine sculpture and
poised with divine gracefulness and up
holstered with curtains of divine embroid
ery and corridored by divine carpentry and
pillared with divine architecture and chis
eled in bone of divine masonry and con
quered by processions of divine marshal
ing. Thenar! A perpetual point of in
terrogation, asking How? A perpetual
point of apostrophe appealing to God.
None but God could plan it. None but
God could build it. None but God could
work it.. None but God could keep it.
None luit God could understand it. None
but God could explain it.. Oh, tho won
ders of the human ear!
By Galilee’s Waves.
How surpassingly sacred the human ear!
You had l etter he careful huw you lot the
sound of blasphemy or uneleanuess step
into that holy of hulios. Tho Bible says
Hiat in the ancient temple tho priest was
sot apart by tho putting of the blood of a
lain on the tip of tho ear, the right ear of
the priest. But, my friends, we need all
of us to have tho sacred touch of ordina
tion on tho hanging lobo of both ears, and
on the arches of the ears, on the eustachi
an tube of tho ear, on the mastoid cells of
tho oar, on the tympanic cavity of the ear,
and on everything from tho outside rim of
the outside ehr clear in to the point where
sound steps off the auditory nerve and
rolls on down into the unfathomable
depths of the immortal soul. The Bible
speaks of "dull ears," and of "uncircum
cised oars," and of "itching ears," and of
"rebellious ears,” and of "open ears,”
and of those who have all the organs of
hearing and yet who seem to be deaf, for
it cries to them, "Ho that hath ears to
hear, let. him near."
To show how much Christ thought of
the human ear, he one day met a man
who was deaf, came up to him and put a
finger of the right hand into the Orifice of
tho left oar of the patient and put a finger
of the left hand into the orifice of the
right ear of the patient, anil agitated the
tympanum, nnd startled the bonelets, and
with a voice that rang clear through into
the man’s soul cried, “Ephthatha!” and
the polyphoid growths gavo way, and tho
inflamed auricle cooled oft', and that man
who had not heard a sound for many
years that night heard tho wash of tho
waves of Galileo against tho limestone
shelving. To show how much Christ
thought, of tho human oar, when tho apos
tle Peter got mail and with emo slash of
his sword dropped tho car of Malehus into
tho dust Christ created a new external
ear for Malehus corresponding with tho
middle ear and tho internal oar that no
sword could clip away.
And to show what God thinks of tho
wo are informed of tho fact that in tho
milennial June which shall rosoato all
tho earth tho ears of the deaf will'he un
stopped, all tho vascular growths gone, all
deformation of tho listening organ cured,
corrected, changed. Every being on earth
will have a hearing apparatus as perfect
as God knows how to make it, and all tho
ears will be ready for that great symphony
in which al! tho musical instruments of
the earth shall v.lay tho accompaniment,
nations of earth and empires of heaven
mingling their voices, together with tho
deep bass of tho sell and the alto of the
woods, and the tenor of winds, and tho
baritone of tho thunder, “Ralicluiahl”
surging up mooting tho "Halleluiah!” do
scending.
Where to Look For God.
Oh, yes, my friends, wo have Leon look
ing f< ? God too far away instead of look
ing for him close by and in our own or
ganism! Wo go up into tho observatory
and lock through the telescope and see
God in Jupiter and (foil in Saturn and
God in Mars, but wo could see more of
him through tho microscope of an aurist.
No king is satisfied with only one resi
dence, and in France it has boon St. Cloud
and Versailles and tho Tuileries, and in
Great Britain it has been Windsor and
Balmoral and Osborne. A ruler does not
always prefer the larger. Tho King of
earth and heaven may have larger castles
and greater palaces, but I do not think
there is any one more curiously wrought
than the human ear. The heaven of heav
ens cannot contain him, and yet ho says
he finds room to dwell in a contrite heart,
and, I think, in a Christian ear.
We have been looking for God in tho in
finite— let us look for him in tho infinitesi
mal. God walking the corridor of the
ear, God sitting in the gallery of tho hu
man oar, God speaking along the auditory
nerve of tho ear, God dwelling in tho car
to hear that which conies from the outside,
and so near the brain and tho soul he can
hen/ all that trauspires there. Tho Lord
of hosts encamping under tho curtains of
membrane. Palaeo of the Almighty in
tho human ear. Thai-ider on-the white
horse of tho Apocalypse thrusting his foot
into tho loop of bone which the physiolo
gist has boon pleased to call tho stirrup pf •
the ear.
Are you ready now for tho question of
my text? Have you tho endurance to bear
its overwhelming suggestivencss? Will
you take hold of some pillar and balance
yourself under th? semiemijipotent stroke?
“Ho that- planted tho ear, shall he not
hear?” Shall tho God who gives ug the
apparatus with which we hear the sounds
of the world him.-oli nut be able to catch
up song and groan and blasphemy and
worship? Ikr.s he give us a faculty which
he has nut himself? Drs. Wild and Gruber
and Toynbee invented the acoumeter and
other instruments by which to measure
and examine the car, and do those instru
ments know more than tho doctors who
made them? "He that planted thoear,
shall ho not hear?" Jupiter ot Credo was
always ropiescntod hi statuary and point
ing as v, ithout cars, suggesting the idea
that ho did not want to be bothered with
the affairs of the world. But our dod has
ears, ‘‘Jits cats are open to their cry.”
The Bible intimates that two workmen
on Saturday night do not get their wages.
Their complaint instantly strikes tho ear
of God, "Thu cry of those that reaped hath
ehtered tho cars of tho Gird of Sabaoth.”
Did God hear that poor girl lasi night as
she threw herself on the'prison bunk in
the city dungeon and cried in the mid
night, “God have mercy?” Do you really
think God could hear her? Yes, just as
easily as when 15 years ago she was sick
MABON NEWS MONDAY EVENING, APRIL 18 1898.
with scarlet fever, and her mother beard
her when at midnight she asked for a
drink of water. “He that planted the
ear, shall be not hear?”
God's Wonderful Power.
When a soul prays, God doos not sit bolt
upright until the prayer travels Immensity •
and climbs to his car. The Bible says he ;
bends clear over. In more than one place i
Isaiah said ho bowed down his ear. In i
more than one place the psalmist said be |
inclined his ear, by which I come to be- |
lievo that God puts bis ear so closely down
to your lips that he can hear your faintest
whi.'-.per. It is not God away off up yon
der; it is God away down here, close up,
so close up that when you pray to him it
is not more a whisper than a kiss. Ah,
yes, Lu hears the captive’s sigh and tho
plash of the orphan’s tear, and the dying
Syllables of the shipwrecked sailor driven
on the skerries, and the infant’s "Now I
lay me down to sleep” as distinctly as be
hears the fortissimo of brazen bands In
the Dusseldorf festival, us easily as he
hears the salvo of nriHlcry when the 13
squares of English troops open all their
batteries at once at Waterloo. Hu that
planted the car can Lear.
Just as sometimes an entrancing-strain
of music will linger in your ears fur days
after you have heard it, and just as a sharp
cry of pain I onee heard while passing
through Bellevue hospital elung to my car
for weeks, and just as a horrid blasphemy
in the street sometimes haunts one’s ears
for days, so God not only hears, but holds
the songs, the prayers, the groans, the
« worship, the blasphemy. How vve haye
all wondered at the phonograph, which
holds not only the words you utter, but
the very tones of your voice, so'that 10(1
years from now, that instrument turned,
the very words you now utter and the very
tone of your voice will ba reproduced.
Amazing phonograph! But more won
derful is God’s power to hold, to retain.
Ah, what delightful encouragement for
our prayets! What an awful fright for
our hard speeches! What assurance of
warm hearted sympathy for all our griefs!
“He that planted the ear, shall he nut
hear?”
Better take that organ away from all
sin. Better put it under the beSt sound.
Better take it away from all gossip, from
all slander, from al! innuendo, from all
bad inlluence of evil association. Better
put it to school, to church, to philhar
monic. Better put that ear under the
blessed touch of Christian bynmology.
Better consecrate it for tinic and eternity
to him who planted tho ear. Rousseau,
the infidel, fell asleep amid his skeptical
manuscripts lying ail around the room,
and in bis dream he entered heaven and
heard the song of tho worshipers, and it
was so sweet he asked an angel what it
meant. Tho angel said, "This is the par
adise of God, and tho song you hear is the
anthem of the redeemed. ” Under another
roll of the celestial music Rousseau wak
ened and got up in the midnight and, as
well as he could, wrote down the strains
of the iqusic that ho had heard in the
wonderful tune called "The Songs of the
Redeemed.” God grant that it may not
be to you mid to me an infidel dream, but
a glorious reality. When wo como to the
night of death and we lie down to our last
sleep, may our ears really be wakened by
tho canticles of the heavenly temple, and
the songs and the anthems and the Carols
and the doxologies that shall dim!) tho
musical ladder of that heavenly gamut.

THE NUMBER 13.
The Bad Luck Theory Em
phatically Dis
proven.
When thirteen young ladies from other ■
cities and states recognize the superior
advantages of the Georgia Business Col
lege and enter in one week it means bad
luck neither to the college nor to the city.
Thirteen is the exact number of new
names enrolled on the College register this
week,, and it was preceded by eight new
entries,the previous week.
New desks have been purchased and
added to the college every month for the
past seven months.
The beat time to advertise I* all the
