DR.TALMAGE’S SERMON The Eminent Divine’s Sunday Disoourse. Snb|ect: "Tlin Grandmother."—The Influ ence of Heredity—A Klcli Legncy left Ue by a Glorious llace of Godly Wom- en—Value of Tlielr ICxeiuple. Text: “The mifel K ned fnltli that Is In thee, which dwelt first In thy grandmother IiOls.”—II Tim. I., 5. In this pastoral letter which Paul, the old mlnlstur, Is writing to Timothy, the young minister, the family record Is brought out. Paul practically snys: ''Tim othy, what a good grandmother you hadl You ought lo ho better than most folks, be- enuso not only was your mother good, but your grandmother was good also. Two preceding generations ot pioty ought to give you a mighty push iu tho right direc tion.” The fact was thnt Timothy needed encouragement, llo was In poui : hb" u h. Jiavlug a weak stomn:!i, «t!l was a dys- peptic, and Paul prescribed for hlai a tollle, “a little wine for thy stomach's mH.0”—not much wluc| but a little wlao Tend only as a modlolne, And if the wine then bud beon as rauoh adulterated with logwood and rtrychnlao as our modern wines, ho would not havo prescribed any. Bat Timothy, not strong pliysloully, Is encouraged spiritually by the recital of grandmotherly excellence, Paul him lag to him, as I hlut this day to you, that Hod somotlmos gathers up us In a reservoir, away back of tho active generations of to day, a godly Influence, and then in re sponse to prayer lets down tho power upon children and grandchildren anil great grandchildren. Tho world is woefully In want o! a table of statistics In regard to what Is tho protruetodnoss and Immensity of inlluuneo or one good woman In the church and world. IVe have accounts ot how much evil has boon wrought by a woman who lived noariy a hundred years ago, nud of how many criminals her de scendants furnlshuil lor tile penitentiary and tho gallows, atnl how many hundreds of thousands ol dollars they cost ourcoiin- try in their arraignment and prison sup port, ns well ns 111 the property they bur glarised and destroyed. But will not some one come out with brain comprehensive enough, anil heart warm enough, and pen keen enough to give us tho fuels In regard to some good woman ot a hundred years ago, and let us know how muuy Christian men nud womou and reformers nud useful . people have boon found among her de scendants, nud how many asyiums and colleges and’Ohurohes they built, and how many millions of dollars thoy contributed for lmmarltnrlan and Christian purposes? The good women wnosu tombstones wore planted lu the eighteenth century are more alive for good In tho nineteenth ooulury than they were before, as tho good women oltbe nineteenth century wlllbe more alive for good in the twentieth century than now. Mark yon, l have no Idea that the grandmothers were any better than their granddaughters. You cannot get very old peoplo to talk much about how tilings wore when they were boys and girls. They have n reticence anil a non I’ominlUiilisin which makes mo think that they feel themselves to bo tho custodlnuB of the reputation of their early ooiivwtdee. While -our dear old folks are rehearsing the follies of tbo present, if wo put thorn ou witness-stand and cross-examino them us to how things weroHovonty years ago tho silence becomes oppressive. The celebrated Fronchmon,Volnoy,visited | this country »in 171HJ, and ho says of worn- nn’rf diet in those times: “If a premium was oiYerod for a regimen most destructive to health, none could bo devised more elll- cucIoub lor those ends than that in use among these people.’’ That eclipses our lob ster salad at midnight. Everybody talks about the dissipation of modern society and how wo'nmuly health goes down under it, but it was worse a hundred years ago, for the cbnphia of a French regiment in our Itevolutionury War wrote in. J782, in ills “Book of American Women,” saying: “They are tall and well-proportioned, their fea tures are generally regular, their complex ions are generally fair and without color. At twenty years of age the women have no longer the freshness of youth. At thirty or forty they are decrepit.” In 1812 a foreign consul wrote a book entitled, “A Sketch of the United States at the Commencement of the Present Century,” ami he says of the women of those times: “At the age of thir ty ull their charms have disappeared.” Ono glance at the portrhits of the women a hun dred years ago and their stylo of dress makes us wonder how thoy ever got their breath. All this makes me think that the express rail #raia is no more an improve ment ou the ola canal boat, orthotolegraph no more an improvement on tho old-tiipe saddle-bags, than the women of our day nro an improvement on the women of the lust century. But still, notwithstanding that thoso times were so much worse thau ours, there wus a glorious race of godly women, sev enty and a hundred years ago, who held the world back from sin and lifted it to ward virtue, and without their exulted and sanctified inilueuco before this the Inst good influence would havo perished from tho earth. Indeed, ail over this lund thore nro seated to-day—not so much in churches, lor many of them are too feeble to come—a great mimv aged grandmothers. They sometimes leol that the world bus gone past them, and they havo an idea that they nro of little account. Their bead some times gets aching from the racket of tho grandchildren down-stairs or in the noxt room. They steady themselves by the banisters ns they go up and down. When they get a cold it hangs on them longer than it used to. They cannot bear to have the grandchildren punished even when they deserve it, nnd have so relaxed their ideas oT family discipline that thoy would spoil all the youngsters of the house hold by too great leniency. These old folks aro tbo resort when great troubles come, and there is a calming and soothing power iu tho touch of an aged hand that is almost supernatural. They feel thoy are almost through with the journey of life and read the old Book more than they used to, linrdly knowing which most they enjoy, the Old Testament or tho New, and often; stop and dwell tearfully over the family record half-way between. Wo hail them to-day, whether iu the house of God or at tho homestead* Blessed is that household that bns in it a grandmother Lois* Where sho is, angels aro hovering round. Is it not time that you and I do two things—swing open a picturo-gfillery of tho wrinkled faces and stooped shoulders of the past, and call down from their heavenly thrones the godly grandmothers lo give thorn our thanks, and tLen to persuade tho mothers of to-day that they are living for nil time, and that against tho sides of jvery cradlo iu which u child is rocked beat the two eternities? Here wo havo an untried, UDdiscussed and unexplored subject. You often hoar about your inilueuco upon your own chil dren; 1 am not talking about that. Wiiat about your inilueuco oa the twentieth cen tury, upon tho thirtieth century, upon the fortieth century, upon the year two thou sand; upon the year four thousand, if the world lasts so long? The world stood four tliousnnd years before Christ came; it Is not unreasonable to suppose that it may stand four thousand yeais after His arrival. Four thousand years the world swung oft iu sin, four thousand years it may be swinging back into righteousness. By the ordinary rate of multiplication of the world's population in a century, your descendants will bo over three hundred, nnd by two centuries over fifty thousand, and upon every one of them, you, the mother of to-day, will havo an influence for good or evil. A nd if in lour centuries your descendants shall have with their names filled a scroll of hundreds of thousands, will some angel from heaven, to whom Is given tho capacity to calculate tho num ber of tho stars of heaven and the sands of the seashore, stop down au<l tell us how many descendants you will have in tho foue thousandth year of tho world’s pos sible continuance? Do not let the grand mothers any longer think that they r.re re tired, and sit clear back out of sight from the world, feeling that they have no re lation to it. The mothers of the lost century am to-day in the person of their de scendants, in the 8euates, tho Parlia ments, the palaces, the pulpits, tho banking houses, the professional chairs, the prisons, the almshouses, tho company of midnight brigands, the cellars, the ditches ot this century. You havo been thinking about the importance of having the right in fluence upon one nursery. You lmvo been thinking of tho Importance of getting thoso two llttlo feet on tho right until. You lmvo been thinking of your child’s destiny for the next eighty years, if it should pass on to be an octogonnrlnu. Thnt is well, but my subject swoops a thousand yonrs. a million years, a quadrillion of years. I canuot stop at ono cradle, I iun looking at tho cradles that roach all around tho world and across all time. I am not talk ing of mother Eunice. I am talking of grandmother L?’*. Good or bad Influence mny skip ono gen- ratlou or two generations, but it will bo sure to land in tho third or fourth genera tion, just as tho Ten Commandments, speaking of tho visitation of God on fam ilies, says nothing about tho second gen eration, but entirely sklpg the second?, nnd spoakij of tho third nud fourth generation: “Visiting the iniquities of tho fathers upon tho third and fourth generation of them that hate me.” Parental influence, right fthd wrong, may jump over a genoratlou, but It .will come down further on as sure as you sit tlioro and 1 stnnd here. This ex plains what wo often seo— somo limn or woman dlstluguishod for honovoleneo when the father and mother were distinguished for penuriousnoss, or you see some yonug man of woman with a bad father and a hard mother come out gloriously for Christ, ami make the Church sob and shout nnd sing under their exhortations. \y« stand in corners of tho vestry and whisper over tho matter, and say, “IIow Is this, such groat plot? In sons and daughters of such parental worhllinoss and sin?” I will ex plain ft to you if you will fotch mo tho old family Bible containing tho full record. Lot somo septuagenarian look with mo clear upon tho page of births and mar riages, nnd toll me who that woman was wltti tho ffid fashioned name of Jemima or Betsy or Mohitabel. Ah, there she is, tho old grandmother, or groat-grund- mother, who lmd enough religion to sat urate a century. Tliero she is, tho dear old soul, Grnnd- mothor Lois. In beautiful Greenwood Cemetery thoro Is tho resting place of Goorgo W. Bethuno, once a minister of Brooklyn Heights, his name never spoken among intelligent Ainerloans without sug gesting two thlngs--eloquoneo and evan gelism. In the same tomb sleeps his grand mother, Isabella Graham, who was the ohlel inspiration of his ministry. You are uot surprised at the poetry and pathos and pulpit powor of the grandson when you read of the faith and devotion of his won derful ancestress. When you read this let ter, in which sho poured out her widowed soul In longings for a son’s snlvntion, you will not wonder that succeeding genera tions havo boon blessed: New Yoiik, May 20, 1791. This day my only son loft me iu bitter wringing* oT heart: ho is again launched on the o?ean—God’s ocean. The Lofd saved him from shlpwroek, brought him to my home, and allowed mo ouoo moro to In dulge my affection over him. Ho has been with tno but a short time, nud 111 have I improved it; he is gone from my sight, and my heart bursts with tumultuous grief. Lord, have mercy Ou the widow’s son, “tho only son of his mother.” I ask nothing In tills world for him; I re peat my petition, Save his soul alive, give him salvation from sin. It Is not dnugerof the seas that distresses me; it is not tho hardships ho must undergo; it is not the dread of never seeing him more in this world; It is beoause l cannot discern tho fulfilment of the promise in lilra. I oannot discern the new birth nor Its fruit but every symptom of captivity to sutnii, tho world, nud self-will. Tills, this is what distresses mo; nnd in connection with this his being shut out from ordinances at a distance from Christians; shut up with thoso who forgot God, profnue His name, and break His Sabbaths; men who often live and die like boasts, yet are accountable creatures, who musi answer for every moment of time nnd every word, thought and action. O Lord, ninny wonders hast thou shown me; Thy ways of deuling with me and mine have not been common ones; ndd this wonder to tho rest. Call, couvert, regenerate and es tablish a sailor in tho faith. Lord, all things are possible with Thee; glorify Thy Hon nnd extend His kingdom by sea and laud; take tho prey from tho strong. I roll him over upon Thee. Many friends try to comfort me; miserable comforters aro they all. Thou art the God of consolation; only oonflrtn to me Thy precious word, on which Thou causedst me to hope in tho day when Thou saidst to me, “Leave thy fatherless ebild!*n, I will preserve them nlivo.” Only lot this life bo a spiritual life, and I put a blank in Thy liana ns to all temporal things. , I wait for Thy saltation. Amen. With such a grandmother, would you not have a right to expect a George W. Bethuno? And all tho thousands converted through ids ministry may date tho saving powor back to Isabella Graham. God 1111 tho eartli and the heavens with such grandmothers; wo must somo day go up nnd thank these dear old souls. Surely God will lot us go up and tell thorn of the results of their influence. Among our first questions in Heaven will bo, “Wliero Is grandmother?” They will point her out, for we would hardly know her, even if wo .had soeu her on earth, so bent over with years once and thoro so straight, so dim of eye through tho blinding of earthly tears ami now her eye ns clear in Heaven, so full or ashes and pains ouco and now so agile with celestial health, tho wrinkles blooming Into -carnation roses, ami her step like the roe on the mountains. Yes, I must seo hoc, my grandmother on my father’s side, Mary McCoy, descendant of the Scotch. When! llrst spoke to tin audi ence in Glasgow, Scotland, nnd felt some what dlflldeiit, .being a stranger, I began by telling them my grandmother was a Scotchwoman, ami then thore wont up a shout of welcome that made me foil as easy as.I do here. I must see her. Make it as easy for the old folks as you can. When they are‘sick, got for them the best doctors. Find the place for thorn In tho hymn book. Never bo ashamed if they prefer styles ot apparel winch are a little antiquated. Never say anything that im plies that tli'-y are in the way. Make tho road for the last mile as smooth ns you can. Oli, my! how you will miss her when she is gone! How much would I give to see mv mother! I havo so mauv things I would like to tell her, tilings Unit have happenod in the thirty years since she went away. Morning, noon nud night let us thank God for the good influences that have come down from good mothers all tlie way back. Timothy, dou’t forget your mother, Eunice, and don’t forget your grandmother Lois. Mothers,consecrate yourselves to God and you will help consecrate all tHo ages fol lowing! Do not dwell so mueli on your hardships that you miss your chance of wielding an influence that shall look down upon you from the towers of nu endless future. I know Martin Luther was right whoa he consoled ills wife over the dentil of their daughter by saying: “Don’t take on so, wife; remember that this is a bard world for girls.” Yes, I go further and say, It is a bard world for women. Ay, I go further and say, It is a hard world for men. But for ml women and men who 'vast their bodie.s and souls iu tho hand of Christ tho shining gates will soon swing ojien. Don’t you see the sickly pallor on the sky? That is the pallor on the cold cheek of the dying night. Don’t ^’ou see the brightening of the clouds?

GERSTLE’S Female Panacea Cures All Diseases of Women. ANY womep are under the imnr^Hsion that the diseases peculiar to their sex nre natural nnd incurable because so many suffer constantly from them. This is a mistake. Few women are so badly diseased that they cannot be cured. It is true, that had they taken a remedy that was efficient when the first symptomsof dis ease appeared, u more rapid cure would have been the result. No woman should neglect herself. When the monthly pe riod becomes too frequent, painful, pro fuse. obstructed, or irregular In any way, or if she suffers from falling of the womb, whites, or any (fiber female trouble,she should at once resort to the use of Gerstle’s Female Panacea T "* #B (Gr. It 3 , )»**«. Which is absolutely the best female remedy ever offered her. Even if she has been negligent and allowed disease to fasten itself upon her she should not de spair ot being cured. This medicine is a purely vegetable tonic, containing those ingredients intended by nature as a remedy for suffering women. It mat ters not if other remedies have been tried and proven failures—Gerstle's Fe male Panacea will not fall.
