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 v.lu have giv<-n I hep tlmo to tbooxamina ti' ii of the ear ami study of its arches, ; ?:> wails, its floor, its canals, it aqueducts, 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.
