DR. TALMAGE GIVES ADVICE TO
THOSE WHO WOULD BE USEFUL.
Srene In a Summer House—At Ilelalmt-
rar's Feast—When the Day of Sorrow Ia
(ioue—Tho Light That Follows tho Dark-
nesa.
Brooklyn, June 4.—The sermon se
lected by Rev. Dr. Talmage for this fore
noon is founded on tho text Judges
iii, 15, "But when tho children of Israel
cried unto 1 he Lord tho Lord raised
them up a deliverer, Ehud, tho son of
Gera, a Benjamite, a man left handed.”
Ehud was a ruler In Israel. He was
left handed, nnd what was peculiar
about the tribe of Benjamin, to which
ho belonged, tlioro were in it TOO left
handed men, and yet so dexterous had
they all become in tho use of the left
hand that tlio Biblo says they could sling
stones at a hair’s breadth and not miss.
Well, there wns a king of the name of
Eglon who was nn oppressor of Israel.
He imposed upon them a most outrifife-
ous tax. Ehud, the mun of whom I first
spoko, had a divine commission to de
stroy that oppressor. Ho came, pretend
ing that lie was going to pay the tux.
and asked to see King Eglon. He was
told ho was in tho summer house, the
place to which the king retired when it
was too hot to sit in I lie palace. This
summer house was a place surrounded
by (lowers and treosnnd springing foun
tains and warbling birds.
Ehud entered tho summer house and
said to King Eglon that, be had « secret
errand with him. Immediately all the
attendants were waved out of tho royal
presonco. King Eglon rises up to re
ceive tho messenger. Ehud, tho left
handed man, puts Ids left hand to bis
right side, pulls out n dagger nnd thrusts
Eglon through until tho haft went in
after tlio blade. Eglon falls. Ehud
conies forth to blow a trumpet of re
emit amid the mountains of Ephraim,
nnd a great host is marshaled, nml proud
Moah submits to tho conqueror, nnd
Israel is free. So, O Lord, let ull thy
enemies perish! So, O Lord. let. nli thy
friends triumph!
i.kft luxnrn men.
I learn first from this subject the pow
er of left handed men. There arc some
men who by physical organization have
us much strength in their left hand as in
their right hand, hut there is something
in tlio writing of this text which implies
that Ehud had some defect in his right
hand which compelled him to uso the
left. Oil, the power of left handed men!
Genius is often self observant, careful of
itself, not given to much toil, burning
incense to its own aggrandizement,
while many a man with no natural en
dowments, actually defective in physical
and mental organization, lias an earnest
ness for the right, a patient industry,
an all consuming perseverance which
achieve marvels for the kingdom of
Christ. Though left handed as Ehud,
they can strike down a sin as great and
imperial as Eglon.
I have seen men of wealth gathering
about them all their treasures, snuffing
at tho cause of a world lying in wicked
ness, roughly ordering Lazarus off their
doorstep, sending their dogs, not to lick
his sores, hut to h'ound him off their
premises, catching all tho pure rain of
God's blessing into the stagnant, ropy,
frog inhabited i>ool of their own selfish
ness—right handed men, worse than use
less—while many a man with large
heart and little pulse lias out of his lim
ited means made poverty leap for joy
and started nn influence that overspans
tho grave and will swing round and
round the throne of God, world with
out end, amen.
Ah, mo, it is high timo that you left
handed men who have been longing for
this gift nnd that eloquence and the
other man’s wealth should take your left
hand out of your pocket. Who made
all these railroads? Who set up all these
cities? Who started all these churches
nnd schools nnd asylums? Who bus done
tho tugging and running and pulling?
Men of no wonderful endowments, thou
sands of them acknowledging themselves
to ho left handed, and yet they were ear
nest, and yet they were determined, and
yot they were triumphant.
But 1 do not suppose that Ehud the
first timo lie took a sling in his hand
could throw a stone a hair's breadth and
not miss. I suppose it was practice that
gave him tho wonderful dexterity. Go
forth to your spheres of duty and he not
discouraged if in your first nttempts you
miss tho mark. Ehud missed it. Take
another stono, put it carefully into the
sling, swing it around your head, take
better aim, and the next time you will
strike the center. Tho first time a ma
son rings his trowel upon the brick he
does not expect to put up a perfect wall.
Tho first time a carpenter sends a plane
over a board or drives a hit through a
beam lie does not expect to make perfect
execution. Tho first timo a hoy attempts
a rhymo ho does not expect to chime a
"Lalla Rookh" ora “Lady of the Lake.”
Do not be surprised if in your first ef
forts at doing good you are not very
largely successful. Understand that use
fulness is an art, a science, a trado.
There was an oculist performing a
very difficult operation on the human
eye. A young doctor stood by and said:
"How easily you do that. It doesn’t
seem to cause you any trouble at all."
"Ah,” said the old oculist, "it is very
easy now, but I spoiled a hatful of eyes
to learn that.” Be not surprised if it
takes soruo practice before we can help
men to moral eyesight and bring them
to a vision of the cross. Left handed
men to the workl Tako the gospel for a
sling and faith and repentance for tho
smooth stono from tho brook, take sure
aim, God direct tlio weapon, and great
Goliaths will tumble before you.
When Garibaldi was going out to bat

DANGER OP WORLDLY ELEVATION.
I learn also from this subject tho dan
ger of worldly elevation. This Eglon
was what tho world called a great man
There were hundreds of peoplo who
would have considered it the greatest
honor of their lifo just to have him speak
to them. Yet although lie is so higli up
in worldly position lie is not beyond the
reach of Ehud's dagger. 1 see a great
many peoplo trying to climbup in social
position, having an idea that thcro is a
safe place somewhere far above, not
knowing that tho mountain of fame has
a top like Mont Blanc, covered with per
petual snow.
We laugh at tho children of Shinar
for trying to build a tower that could
teach to the heavens, hut 1 think if our
eyesight were only good enough we
could see n Babe) in many a doorynrd.
Oil, the struggle is tiercel It is store
against store, house against house, street
against stroet, nation against nation
The goal for which men are running is
chnirs aud chandeliers nnd mirrors and
houses nnd lands and presidential
equipments. It they get what they an
ticlpato, what have they got? Men are
not safe from calumny while they live,
and. worse than that, they are not safe
after they are dead, lor 1 have seen
twine root up graveyards.
One day a man goes up into publicity,
nnd tho world does him honor, and jieo-
pie climb up into sycamore trees to
watch him ns lie passes, and as lie goe
ulotig on tho shoulders of the people
there is a waving of hats and a wild
huzza. Tomorrow the same man it
caught between the jnws of tho print
ing press and mangled and bruised, and
the very same persons who applauded
hire heforo cry “Down with the traitor!
Down with hirr.I”
Belshazzar sits at. the feast, the
mighty men of Babylon sitting nil
around him. Wit sparkles like thewim
and the wine liko the wit. Music rolls
up among Iho chandeliers, tho clinndc
tiers Hash down on tho decanters Tht
breath of hanging gardens floats in on
tho night air; tho voice of revelry float
out. Amid wreaths nnd tapestry nnd
folded banners a finger writes. The
march of a host is hoard on the stairs
Laughter catches in the throat. A lliou
sand hearts stop beating. The blow is
struck. Tho blood on tho floor is ricliot
hued than tlio wine on tho table. The
kingdom has departed.
Belshazzar was no worse perhaps than
hundreds of peoplo in Babylon, hut his
position slew him. Oh, he content with
just such a position us God has placed
you ini It nmy not bo said of us, "He
was u great general," or "Ho was an
honored chieftain," or "He was might)

may bo said of you and me, "He was i

friend of Jesus," And that in tho last
day will ho tlio highest of ull oulogiuuis
EYES AND SEE NOT.
I learn further from this subject that
death comes to tho summer house. Eg
Ion did not expect to die in that fine
place. Amid all tho flower leuves that
drifted liko summer snow into the win :
(low; in the tinkle and dash of the foun
tains; in the sound of a thousand leaves
fluttering on one treo branch; in tlio cool
breeze that came up to shako feverish
trouble out of the king’s locks, there
was nothing that spake of death, but
tliero ho died! In tlio winter, when the
snow is a shroud, nnd when the wind is
a dirge, it is easy to think of our mortal
ity, hut when tho weather is pleasant
and ull our surroundings are agreeable
how difficult it is for us to appreciate
the truth that wo aro mortal! And yet
my text teaches that death does some
times come to tlio summer house.
Ho is blind nnd cannot see the leaves.
He is denf and cannot hear the foun
tains. Oh, if death would ask us for
victims, wo could point him to hundreds
of people who would rejoico to have
him come. Push hack the door of that
hovel. Look at (hut little child—cold
nnd sick and hungry. It lias never heard
tho name of God hut in blasphemy. Par*
ents intoxicated staggering around its
straw bed. Oh, death, there is a mark
for thee! Up with it into the light! Be
fore these little feet stumble on life’s
pathway give them rest.
Hero is un aged man. Ho has done
his work. Ho lias done it gloriously.
The companions of his youth are all
gone, his children dead. lie longs to he
at rest, and wearily the days and the
nights pass. Ho says, "Come, Lord Jo
bus, come quickly." Oh, death, there b
a mark for tlioel Take from him the
6taff and give him the scepter! Up with
him into the light, where eyes never
grow dim, and the air whitens not
through the loug years of eternity Ah
death will not do that. Death turns
back from tho straw bed and from the
aged man ready for tho skies and comes
to the summer house.
What doest thou here, thou bony,
ghastly monster, amid this waving grass
and under this sunlight sifting through
the tree branches? Children are at play
How quickly their feet go and their
Jocks toss in the wind I Father and
mother stand at the side of the room
looking on, enjoying their glee. It does
not seem possible that tho wolf should
over break into that fold and carry off a

ger conies he does not stop to look at the
architecture of the house before ho comes
in, nor entering does he wait to examine
the pictures we have gathered on the
wall, or bending over your pillow he
does not stop to see whether there is a
color in tlio cheek, or gentleness lu the
eye, or intelligence in the brow. But
what of that? Must we stand forever
mourning among the graves of our dead.
Not Nol The people in Bengal bring
cages of birds to the graves of their dead

Tho ancients usod to think tlint the
straits entering the Red sea were very
dangerous places, and they supiioseil
that every ship that went through those
straits would be destroyed, and they
were in the habit of putting on weeds of
mourning for those who had gone on
that voyage, as though they were Actu
ally dead. Do you know what they called
those Btraits? They call them tho “Gate
of Tears." Oh, I stand today at the gate
of tears through which many of your
loved ones have gone, and 1 want to tell
you that all are not shipwrecked that
liuve goue through those straits into the
great ocean stretching out beyond.
Tho sound that comes from thai ether
shore on still nights when wo ure wrap
ped in prayer makes me think that the
departed aro not dead. Wo aro tlio dead
—we who toil, wo who weep, we who
sin—we ure the dead. How my heart
aches for human sorrow! This sound of
breaking hearts that 1 hear all about me!
This lust look of faces that will never
brighten again 1 This last kiss of lips
that never will speak again! This widow
hood and orphanage 1 Oh, when will the
day of sorrow bo gone?
AN INCIDENT.
After tho sharpest winter the spring
dismounts from the shoulder of a south
ern gale aud puts its warm hand upon
the earth, and in its pulin there conies
the grass, and there come tho flowers,
nnd God reads over the poetry of bird
and brook and bloom and pronounces it
very good. What, my frionds, if every
winter had uut its spring, and every
night its day, und every gloom it s glow,
nnd every bittor now its sweet hereafter?
If you have been on tho sea, you know
ns the ship passes in tho night, thero is a
phosphorescent track left behind it, ami
as the waters roll up they toss with un
imaginable splendor. Well, across this
groat ocean of human trouble Jesus
walks. Oh, that iu tho phosphorescent
track of his foot wo might all follow and
he illumined!
Thero was a gentleman in the rail car
who saw in that same car three passen
gers of very different circumstances.
Tho first was a maniac. Ha was care
fully guarded by his attendants: his
mind, like a ship dismasted, was boat
ing against a dark, desolate coast, from
which no help could come. The train
stopped, and the man was taken out into
the asylum to waste away perhaps
through years of gloom. The second
passenger wns a culprit. Tho outraged
law had seized on him. As tho cars
jolted the clmins rattled. On his face
were crime, depravity and despair. The
train halted, and he was taken out to the
penitentiary, to which he had been con
demned. 1 here was the third passen
ger under far different circumstances.
She was n bride. Every hour was gay
as a marriage bell. Life glittered and
beckonod. Her companion was taking
her to his father’s house. The train
halted. The old man was thero to wel
come her tc her new home, and his
white locks snowed down upon her us
he sealed his word with a father’s kiss.
Quickly we fly toward eternity. We
will soon be there. Some leave this life
condemned culprits. They refused a pur-
don; they carry their chains. Oh, may
it be with us that, leaving this fleeting
life for the next, we may find our Father
ready to greet us to our new home with
him forever. That will be a marriaga
banquet! Father’s welcome! Father’s
bosom! Father's kiss! Heaven! Heaven!

“Seeing is Believing.”
And a good lamp
must be simple; when it is not simple it is
not good. Simple, Beautiful, Good—these
words mean much, but to see " The Rochester ’’
will impress the trutli more forcibly. All metal,
tough and seamless, and made in three pieces only,
it is absolutely safe and unbreakable. Like Aladdin’s
ofc d, it is indeed a “wonderful lamp,” for its mar-
velcus light is purer and brighter than gas light, _
softer than electric light and more cheerful than either.
