I’eople Who Are Hlind to the Tlright Light In the Clouds F-arthly Bereove meot* Fmeiititd to Heavenly Welcome. Glory Succeed. Gloom. {Copyright, ISSB, by American Press Asso ciation. ] Washington. April 24.—This sermon of Dr. 'i -<lmago will have a tendency to take the gloom out of many Jives and stir up a spirit of healthful anticipation; text. Job xxxvii, 21, “And now men nee not the Bright light which is in the clouds.’’ Wind east. Barometer falling. Storm elgnnls out. Ship reefing inaintopsail. Awnings taken in. Prophecies of foul weather everywhere. The clouds congre gate around the sun, proposing to abolish him. But after awhile be assails the flanks of the clouds with flying artillery of light, and here and then) is a sign of clearing weather. Many do not observe it. Many do not realize it. “And now men see not the bright light which is in the clouds.” In other words, there are 100 men looking for storm where there is one man looking for sunshine. My object Will he to get you and myself into the delightful habit of making the best of everything. You may have wondered at the statistics that In India in the year 1875 there were over 19,000 people slain by wild beasts, and that in the year 1870 there were in India over 20,000 people destroyed by wild animals. But there is a monster in our own land which is yenr by year destroying lucre than that. It is the old bear of mel ancholy, and with gospel weapons I pro pose to chase it back to its midnight cav erns. I mean to do two sums—a sum in subtraction and a sum in addit ion—a sub traction from your days of depression and an addition to your days of joy. If God will help me, I will compel you to see the bright light that there is in the clouds and compel you to make the best of every thing. In the first place, you ought to make the very best of all your financial misfor tunes. During the panic a few years ago you all lost money. Sonic of you lost it in most unaccountable ways. For the question, “How many thousands of dol lars shall I put aside this year?” you sub titutid the question, “How shall I pay my butcher and baker mid clotbier and landlord?” You bad the honsation of row ing hard with two oars and yet all the time going down stream. You did not say much aho.ut it because it was not politic to speak much of finan cial embarrassment, but your wife knew. Loss variety of wardrobe, more economy nt the table, self denial in art and tapes try. Compression, retrenchment. Who did not feel the necessity of it? My friend, did you make the best of this? Are you aware of how narrow an escape you made? Suppose you had reached the fortune to ward which you were rapidly going? What then? You would have been -as proud us Lucifer. What Is Success? How few mon have succeeded largely in a financial sense and yet maintained their simplicity and religious consecration! Not one man out of 1(10. There uro glorious exceptions, but tho general rule is that in proportion as a man gets well off for tins world he gets poorly off for tho next. He loses his sense of dependence on God. Ho gets a distaste for prayer meetings. With plenty of bank stocks and plenty of gov ernment securities, what does that man know iff the prayer, “Give me this day my daily bread?” How few men largely suc cessful in this world are bringing souls to Christ oi' showing self denial for others or are eminent for piety? You ean count them all upon your eight lingers and two thumbs. Ono of tho old covetous souls, when he was sick and sick unto death, used to have a basin brought in, a basin filled with gold, and his only amusement and tho only relief he got for his inflamed hands was running them down through the gold and turning it up in tho basin. Oh, what infatuation and what destroying power money has for many a man! Now, you were sailing at HO knots the hour toward these vortices of worldliness—what a mercy it was, that honest defalcation! The same divine hand that crushed your store house, your bank, your oilice, your insur ance company, lifted you out of destruc lion. The day’ you honestly suspended in business made your fortune for eternity. “Oil,” you say, “I could get along very well myself, but I am so disappointed that I cannot leave a competence for my chil dren!” My brother, the same financial misfortune that is going to save your soul will save your children. With the antici pation of largo fortune, how much indus try would your children have, without which habit of industry there is no safety? The young man would say, “Well, there's no need of my working. My father will soon step out, and then I’ll have just what 1 want.” You cannot b.ide from him how much you are worth. You think you are hiding it. Ho knows all about it. He can tell you almost to a dollar. Perhaps he has been to the county office and searched the records of deeds and mortgages, and ho has added it all up, and bo has made an estimate of how long you will probably stay in this world, and is not as much worried about your rheumatism and short ness of breath tts you are. The only for tune worth anything that you can give your child is the fortune you put in his head and heart. Os all the young men who started life with $40,000 capital, how many turned out well? 1 do not know half a dozen. Inspiring Inheritance. The best inheritance a young roan can have is the feeling that he has to fight bis own battle, and that life is a struggle into which ho must throw body, mind and soul or be disgracefully worsted. Where are the burial places es the men who started life with a fortune? Some of them in the potter's field, some in the suicide’s grave. But few of these men reached 35 years of age. They drank, they smoked, thay gam bled. In then) the beast destroyed the man. Seine of there lived long enough to get their fortunes and went through them. The vast majority of them did not live to get their inheritance. From the ginshop or house of infamy they were brought home to their father’s house and in de lirium began to pick off loathsome reptiles from the embroidered pillow and to fight back imaginary devils. And then they wore laid out in highly upholstered parlor, the casket covered with flowers by indul gent parents, flowers suggestive of a resur rection with no hope. As you sat this morning at your break fast table and looked into the faces of your children perhaps you said within your self: “Poor things! How I wish I could start them in life with a competence! How I have been disappointed in all noy expectations of .what I would do for them!” Upon that scene of pathos I break with a pirnn of congratulation, that by your financial losses your own prospects for heaven and the prospect for the heaven of your children are mightily improved. You may have lost a toy, but you have won a palace. “How hardly shsll they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!” “It is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye than for a rich man to enter the king dom of heaven.” What does that mean? It means that the grandest- blessing God vver licstoweil upon you was to take your money away from you. Let me here say, in passing, do not put much stress on the treasures of this world. You cannot take them along with you. At any rate, you cannot take them more than two or three miles. Y'ou will have to leave them at the cemetery. Attila had three coffins. So fond was he of this life that he decreed that first he should be buried in a coffin of gold, and that then that should be inclosed in a coffin of silver, and that should be in closed in a coffin 4>f iron, and then a large amount of treasure should be thrown in over his body. And so he was buried, and the men who buried him were slain so that no one might know where he was buried and no eno might there interfere with his treasures. O men of the world who want to take your money with you, better have three coffins! Profit by Bereavements. Again, I remark you ought to make the very best of your bereavements. The whole tendency is to brood over these sep- and to give much Jimo to the handling of mementos of the dcpartid, and to make long visitations to the ceme tery, and to say: “’Oh, I can never look up again ! My hoj-e is gone. My courage is gone. My religion is gone. My faith in God is gone. Oh, the wear and tear and exhaustion of this ioneliness!” The mo.-t, frvqu< nt !a*re>i\oinent is the loss of children II jour <i< parted child had lived as long as you have lived, do you not sup post- that would have had about the same amount of tumble and trial that you i.uvo had? If you could make u choice for your child l<etw« n 10 years of annoyance, loss, vexatii n. exasperation and bereave ments and 4'i years in heaven, would you take the resj>onsil 'lity of choosing the former? Would yon snuU h away the cap of eternal bliss and put into that child’s hands the cup of many is reavements? In stead of the complete safety into which that child has been lilted, would you like to hold it down to the risks of this mortal state? Would you like to keep it out on a sea in which there, have been more ship wrecks than safe voyages? Is it not a comfort to you to know that that child, Instead of Luing In sidled and Hung into the mire of sin, is swung clear into the skies? Are not those children to be con gratulated that the point of celestial bliss which yon expect to reach by a pilgrimage of 50 or 60 or 70 years they reached at a flash? If the last 10,000 children who had entered heaven had gone through the av erage of human life on earth, are you sure all those 10,000 uhikin n would have final ly reached the biisstui terminus? Besides that, my friends, you are to look at this matter as a self denial on your part for their benefit. If your children want to go off in a May day party, if your children want to go on a flowery and musical ex cursion, you consent. You might prefer to ha\e them w itb you, but theif jubilant absence satisfies you. Well, your departed children have only gone out in a May day party, amid flowery and musical entertain went, amid joys and hilarities forever. That ought to quell some of your grief, tho thought of their glee. Glorious Welcomes. So it ought to be thut you could make the best of all bereavements. The fact that you have so many friends in heaven will make your own departure very cheerful. When you are going on a voyage, every thing depends upon where your friends an—if they are on the wharf that you leave or on the wharf toward which you are going to sail. In other words, the more friends you have in heaven the easier it will be to got away from this world. The more friends here the more bitter goodbys. The more friends there tho more glorious welcomes. Sonic of you have so many brothers, sisters,children, friends, in heaven that 1 do not know hardly how you are going to crowd through. When the vessel camo from foreign lands and brought a prince to our harbor, tho ships were covered with bunting, and you re member how the mon-of-war thundered broadsides, but there was no joy there compared with the joy which shall bo demonstrated when you sail up the broad bay of heavenly salutation. Tho more friends you have there the easier your own transit. What is death to a mother whose children are in'heaven? Why, there is no more grief in it than there is in her going into a nursery amid the romp and laugh ter of her household. Though all around may be dark, see you not the bright light in the clouds, that light the irradiated luces of your glorified kindred? So also, my friends, I would have you make the best of your sicknesses. When you see one inovo off with elastic step and in full physical vigor, sometimes you be come impatient with your lame foot. When a man describes an object a mile off and you cannot see it at all, you become impatient of your dim eye. When you hear of a well man making a groat achieve ment, you become impatient with your de pressed nervous system or your dilapidat ed health. I will tell you how you can make the worst of it. Brood over it— brood over all these illnesses—and your nerves will become more twitchy, and your dyspepsia more aggravated, and your weakness more appalling. But that is the devil’s work to tell you how to make the worst of it. It is my work to show you a bright light in tho clouds. Which of the Bible men most attract your attention? You say, Moses, Job, David, Jeremiah, Paul. Why, what a strange thing it is that you have chosen those who were physically disordered! Moses—l know he was nervous from the clip he gave the Egyptian. Job—his blood was vitiated and diseased and his skin distressfully eruptive. David—ho Lad a running sore, which ho speaks of when ho says, “My sore ran in the night and ceased not.” Jeremiah had enlargement of tho spleen. Who can doubt it who reads Lam entations? Paul—he had a lifetime sick ness which tho commentators have been guessing about for years, not knowing'ex actly what tho apostle meant by “a thorn in the flesh.” I do not know either, but it was something sharp, something that stuck him. I gather from all this that physical disorder may bo the means of grace to the soul. You say you have so many temptations from bodily ailments, and if yon wi 10 only well you think you could be a good Christian. While your temptations may be different, they are no more than those of the man who has an appetite three times a day and sleeps eight hours every night. No More Pain. From my observation, I judge that in valids have a more rapturous view of the next world than well people and will have higher renown in heaven. The best view of the delectable mountains is through the lattice of the sickroom. There are trains running every hour between pillow and throne, between hospital and mansion, between bandages and robes, between crutch and palm branch. Oh, I wish some of you people who are compelled to cry: "My head, my head! My foot, my foot! My back, niy back!” would try some of the Lord’s medicine. You are gokig to be well anyhow before long. Heaven is an old city, but has never yet reported one caso of sickness or one bill of mortality. No ophthalmia for tho eye. No pneu monia for the lungs. No pleurisy for the side. No neuralgia for the nerves. No rheumatism for the muscles. '‘The in habitants shall never say, I am sick.” “There shall be no more pain.” Again, you ought to make the best of life’s finality. Now, you think I have a very tough subject. You do not see hew I am to strike a spark of light out of the flint of the tombstone. There are many people who have an idea that death is the submergence of everything pleasant by everything doleful, if my subject could close in the upsetting of all such precon ceived notions, it would close well. Who ean judge best of the features of a man— those who are close by him or those who are afar off? “Oh,” you say, “those can judge best of the features of a man who are close by him!” Now, my friends, who shall judge of the features of death—whether they are lovely or whether they arc repulsive? Y’ou? You are too far off. If 1 want to get a judgment as to what really the features of death are, 1 will not ask you. I will ask those who have been within a month of death, or a week of death, or an hour of death, or a minute of death. They stand so near the features, they can tell. They give unanimous testimony, if they are Christian people, that death, instead of being demoniac, is cherubic. Os all the thousands of Christians who have been carried through the gates of the cemetery, gather up their dying experiences, and you will find they nearly all a jubilate. How often you have seen a dy- Yng man join in the psalm being sung around his bedside, the middle of the verse opening to let his ransomed spirit free, long after the lips could not speak look ing and pointing upward. Some of you talk as though God had ex hausted himself in biulding this world, and that all the rich curtains ho ever made he hung around this planet, and all the flowers he ever grew he has woven into tho carpet of our daisied meadows. No. This world is not the best thing God can do. This world is not the best thing that God has done. Season of Blossoms. One week of the year is called blossom week—called so all through the land be cause there are more blossoms in that week than in any other week of the year. Blossom week! And that is what the fu ture world is to which the Christian is in vited—blossom week forever. It is as far ahead of this world as paradise is ahead of Dry Tortugas, and yet here we stand shivering and tearing to go out, and we MACON NEWS MONDAY EVENING,’APRIL 25 1898. want to stay on the dry sand and auiid the stormy petrels when we are invited to arliors of jasmine and birds of paradise. Ono season I had tno springtimes. I went to New Orleans in April, and 1 marked the difference between going to- 1 ward New Orleans and then coming back. As I went on down toward New Orleans the verdure, the foliage, became thicker and more beautiful. When 1 came back, the farther I came toward home the less tho foliage and less and less it became un til there was hardly any. Now, it all de pends upon the direction in which you travel. If a spirit from heaven should come toward our world, ho is traveling from June toward December, from radiance to wanl darkness, from hanging gardens to ward icebergs. And one would not be very much surprised if a spirit of God sent forth from heaven toward our world sbould be slow to come. But bow strange it is that we dread going out toward that world when going is from liecember to ward Juno, train the snow of earthly s.tonu to the slow of Edenic blossom, iroui the arctics oi trouble toward the tropics of eternal joy! Gh, what an ado about dying! We get so attached to the malarial marsh in which we live that we are afraid to go up and live on the hilltop. We are alarmed be cause vacation is coming. Eternal sun light and best program mo of celestial min strels and halleluiah, no inducement. Let us stay here and keep cold and ignorant and weak. lib not introduce us to Elijah and John Milton arid Bourdaloue. Keep our feet on tiie sharp cobblestones of earth instead of planting them on tho bank if amaranth in heaven. Give us this small island of a leprous world instead of the immensities of splendor and d light. Keep our hands full of nettles and our shouluer under ihe burden and our neck in the yoke and hopples on our ankles and handcuffs on our wrists. “Dear Lord,” wo seem to say,“keep us down here where we have to suffer instead of letting us up where wo might live and reign and re joice.” Amazing Infatuation. 1 am amazed at inyeelf and at yourself for this infatuation under which wo all rest. Men you would suppose would get frightened at having to stay in this world instead of getting frightened at having to go toward heaven. 1 congratulate any body who has a right to die. By that 1 mean through sickness you cannot avert or through accident you cannot avoid— your work consummated. “Where did they bury Lily?” said one little child to another. “Ob,” she replied, “they buried her In the ground.” “What! In the cold ground?” “Oh, no, no; not in the cold ground, but in the warm ground, where ugly seeds become beautiful flowers!” “But,” says some one, “it pains me so much to think that I must lose the body with which iny soul has so long compan ioned.” You do not lose it. You no more lose your body by death than you lose your watch when you send it to have it re paired, or your jewel when you send it to have it reset, or the faded picture when you send it to have it touched up, or tho photograph of a friend when you have it put in a now locket. You do not Jose your body. Paul will go to Romo to get his, Payson will go to Portland to get hie, President Edwards will go to Princeton to got his, George Cookman will go to tho bottom of tho Atlantic to get his, and we will go to tho village churchyards and tho city cemeteries to got ours, and when wo have our perfect spirit rejoined to our per fect body then wo will be the kind of men and women that tho resurrection morning will make possible. So you see you have not made out any doleful story yet. W hat have you proved about death? What is the case you have made out? You have made out just this— that death allows us to have a perfect body, free of all aches, united forever with a perfect soul, free from all sin. Correct your theology. What does it all mean? Why, it means that moving day is coming and that you are going to quit cramped apartments and bo mansioned forever. Tho horse that stands at tho gate will not be tho one lathered and bespattered, carry ing bad news, but it will lie the horse that St. John saw in Apocalyptic vision—the white horse on which the King comes to the banquet. The ground around the pal ace will quake with tho tires and hoofs of celestial equipage, and those Christians who in this world lost their friends and lost their property and lost their health and lost their life will find out that God was always kind, and that all things worked together for their good, and that those were tho wisest people on earth who made the best of everything.

M uch to tho amaze- Luent of tho other occupants of the room, ho proceeded to elevate his feet until they rested on the chimneypiece in “real American” fashion. No expos tulations on the part of hie friends re specting the inelegance of the position were of the slightest avail. Suddenly a brilliant inspiration seized one of them. Going close to Lord Tennyson, he whis pered in his car, “Take ycur feet down or they’ll mistake you for Longfellow. ” In an instant the poet’s boots were on the floor, and he assumed the ordinary position of an Englishman.—San Fran cisco Argonaut.
