Like ■> Deer at Bay,
From the Evening Creecent, Appleton, Wit.
The story of a remarkable cure from a
disease whioh has generally wrecked the
lives of children, and left them in a condi
tion to which death itself would be preferred
has attracted a great amount of attention
among the resident# of the west end of Apple-
ton, Wisconsin.
The case is that of little Willnrd Creech,
son of ltichard D. Creech, a well known
employe of one of the large paper mills in
the Fox River Valley. The lad was attaoked
by spinal disease and bis parents had given
up all hope of his ever being well again
wnen, as by a miracle, he was healed and is
now in school, as happy as any of his mates.
Mr. Creech, the muter of the boy, who
resides at 1062 Second Street, Appleton, Wis
consin, told the following story:
" Our boy had just become old enough tc
begin school when he began to act rather
queer and finally we called a doctor who said
tne trouble was indigestion. The lad grew
wore#, however, and another doctor was sum
moned who at ohee pronounced the trou
ble epinal disease and put the bov on a
stretcher. Other doctors were called in and
there was a consultation. They all called it
S inai disease end for a year one of them
v« the boy treatment.
"He grew worse instead of better and
was absolutely helpless. His lower limbs
were paralysed, and when we used elec
tricity he could not feel it below hie hips, imo uemviliui ruhuu anm III tow w«y rniwring
Finally we let the doctor go as be did not, the entire system. That is the reason why
■eem to help onr son and we nearly gave Dr. Williams’Pink Pills for Pale People cure
up hope.* Finally my mother who lives in so many discuses, why doctors prescribe them,
Canada wrote advising the us# of Dr. Wil- why druggirts recommend them and why they
llarne’ Pink Pills for Pals People and I; are so universally used.
bought some though I had no hope ef
where the doctors had utterly failed.
“This was when onr hoy had been on the
stretcher fcor an entire year and helpless fee
nine months. In six week* after taking
the pills we noted signs of vitality in his
legs, and in four months from the time we
began the use of this medicine the boy was
able to go to school. We kept him at home,
however fearing a relapse if he returned to
school too early and for a year we gave hii
the nills regularly.
“ It is two years since he took the first of
the pills, and he is now nine years old. He
is at school now and just as happy and well as
any of the other children. * r it was nothing
else in the world that saved the boy than
Dr.Williatns’ Pink Pills for Pale People.”
All of Mr. Creech’s neighbors were cogni
sant of the work done by Dr. Williams' Fink
Pills, and many of them are using ths pills in
their families.
The blood is ths vital element in our live*
consequently it must l>e kept pure, rich and
red in order to have perfect health. The
cause of little Willard Creech’s sickness was
disordered blood. He had skilled medical
treatment but derived no benefit until Dr.
Williams’ Pink Pills for Pate People were
used and theee cured him.
This proves that this remedy is the heel
means of imparting those elements that purify,
vitalize and enrich the blood, thus aiding
bodily functions and arousing every organ
into healthful action and in this way reetonng

ou the doctors who failed to effeot a
care, or yon charge on tbo carelessness
of the railroad oompany through which
the aocident occurred, or you are ft
ohronio invalid, and you fret and wor
ry and scold and wonder why you can
not be well liko other people, and you
angrily blame the neuralgia, or the lar

(uatead of running to the waters of di

away into the mighty deeps of God’s
love you are fighting a whole kennel of
harriers.
' I saw in the Adirondacks a dog lying
across the road, and he seemed unable
to got up, and I said to some hunters
near by, “What is the matter with
that dog?” They answered, “A deer
hurt him. ” And I saw he had a groat
swollen paw and a battered head, show
ing where the antlers struck him. And
the probability is that some of you
might give a mighty clip to yottt pur
suers, you might damago their bdsjness,
you might worry them into ill health,
you might hurt them as muoh as they
have hurt you, but after all it is not
worth while. You only have hurt a
hound. Better be off for the upper Sar
anac, into whioh the monntains of God’s
eternal strength look down and moor
their shadows. As for yourphysioal dis
orders, the worst strychnine you oan
take is fretfnlness, and the besjt medi
cine is religion.
1 know people who were only S little
disordered, yet have fretted themselves
into complete valetudinarianism, while
others put their trust in God and come
np from the very shadow of death and
have livod comfortably 36 years with
only one lung. A map with ony lung,
but God with him, is better off than a
godless man with two lungs. Some of
you have been for a Jopg time sailing
around Gape Fear when you ought tQ
have been sailing around Capa Good
Hope. Do not turn back, but gq ahead.
The deer will aooomplish more with its
swift feet than with its horns.
Waters of Comfort.
I saw whole chains of lakes ip thy
Adirondacks, and from one height you
can seo 30, and there are said to be over
800 in the great wilderness of New
York. So near are they to eaoh other
that your mountain guide picks up and
carries the boat from lake to lake, the
small distsnoe between them fob that
reason called a “carry." And the realm
of God’s word is one long chain of
bright, refreshing lakes, each promise a
take, a very Bhort carry between them!
and though for ages the pursued have
been drinking out of them they are full
up to the top of the green banks, and
the same David describes them, and
they seem so near together that in three
different places he speaks of them as a
continuous river, saying, "There is
river the streams whereof shall make
glad the city of God:” “Thou shalt
make them drink of the rivers of thy
pleasures;” “Thou greatly enriohest it
with the river of God, whioh is full of
water. ’
But many of you have turned your
back on tljat supply and confront your
trouble, aud you aro soured with your
circumstances, and you are fighting bo-
clety, and you are fighting a pursuing
world, and troubles, iusteed of driving
you into the cool take of heavenly com
fort, have made you stop aud turn
around and lower your head, and it is
simply antler against tooth. I do not
blame you. Probably under the same
circumstances I would have done worse.
But you are all wroug. You need to do
as the reindeer does in February and
March—it sheds its horns. The rabbin
ieal writers allude to this resignation of
antlers by the stag when they say of
man who ventures his money in risky en
terprises, "He has hang it on the stag*
horns," and a proverb in the far east
tells a man who has foolishly lost his
fortnne to go and find where the deer
sheds her horns. My brother, quit the
antagonism of your circumstances, quit
misanthrophy, quit complaint, quit
pitohing into your pursuers, be as wise
as next spring will be all the deer of
the Adirondacks. Shed your horns.
The Redeemer’s Reward.
But very many of you who are
wronged of the world—and if in any
assembly between here aud Golden
Gate, Sau Francisco, it were asked that
all those that had been sometimes badly
treated should raise both their hands
and full response should be made, there
would be twice as many hands lifted as
persons present—I say many of you
would declare, “We have always done
the best wo could and tried to be usefnl,
and why we should become the victims
of maligument or invalidism or mishap,
is inscrutable. ” Why, do you know

usefulness. You will be assailed in pro
portion to your grent achievements. The
best aud the mightiest being the world
ever saw bad set after him all the
hounds, terrestrial and diabolic, and
they tapped hta blood after the Onlvn-
rean massacre. Tho world paid nothing
to its fiedeomer but a bramble, four
spikes and a cross. Many who have done
their best to make tho world better have
bad such a rough time of it that nil their
pleasure is iu anticipation of the next
world, and thoy could expross their own
feelings in tho words of tho Baroness of
Nairn at tho close of her long life, when
asked if she Would like to live her life
over again:
Would you be young again?
So would not I;
One tear ot memory given,
Onward I'll hie;
JLlfe’s dark wave forded o'er,
All but at rest on Bhore,
Say. would you plunge once more,
With homo so nigh?
If you might, would you now
Retrace your way?
Wander through stormy wilds,
Faint and astray?
Night's gloomy watches fled,
Morning all beaming red.
Hope’s smile around us shed,
Heavenward, away!
Master of the Honnds.
Yn foF some people in this world
there seems no let up. They are pursued
from youth to manhood and from man
hood into old age. Very distinguished
are Lord Stafford’s hounds, the Enrl of
Yarborough’s hounds and the Duko of
Rutland’s hounds, and Qneen Victoria
pays $8,600 a year to her master of
buckhonnds. But all of them put togeth
er do not equal In number or speed or
[lower to hunt down the groat kennel of
rounds of whioh sin and tronble ore
ovrpep and master.
But what is a relief for oil this pur
■nit of trouble and annoyance and pain
and bereavement? My text gives it to
ou in a word of three letters, but eaoh
etter |sn chariot if yon would triumph
or a throne if you want to be crowned
or a lake if you would slake yonr thirst
yes, a chain of throe takes—G-O-D,
theone for whom David longed, nnd the
one whom David found. You might as
well meet n stag which nfter its sixth
mile of running at tiie topmost speed
through thicket and gorge, aud with the
breath of the dogs on ilsheols, has come
in full eight of Scroou lake, and try to
cool its projecting aud blistored tongue
with a drop of dew from o blade of
grass as to attempt to satisfy an immor
tal soul wheu flying from trouble nnd
sin with anything less deep and high
and broad aud immeneo and infinite and
eternal than God. His oomfort—why, it
embosoms all distress. His arm,
wrenches off all bondage. His hand, it
wipes away all tears. His Ghristly
atonement, it makos us all right with
the past and all right with the future,
all right with God nnd all right with
man and all right forever. Lamartine
tells us that King Nimrod said to his
three sons: “Hero are three vases,
and one is of clay, another of arnbor and
another of gold. Choose now whioh you
will have.” The eldest sou, having first
choice, chose tho vase of gold, on which
was written tho word “Empire, ” aud
when opened it wus found to contain
human blood. The second son, making
the uext cboioo, chose the vase of nm
her, inscribed with tho word “Glory,
aud when oponed it contained the nshos
of those who were onoe called groat,
The third son took the vase of clay, uud,
opening it, found it empty, but ou the
bottom of it was inscribed the name of
God. King Nimrod asked his courtiers
whioh yase they thought weighed the
most. The avaricious men of his court
said the vase of gold. The poets said the
one of amber, but the wisest men said
the empty vase, because one letter of the
name of God outweighed a universe.
Clod’s PtpuiUe.
For him I thirst, for his grace I beg,
on his promise I build my all. Without
him I cannot bo happy. I have tried the
world, and it doos well enough as far
as it goes, but it is too uncertain
world, too evanescent a world. I am
not a prejudiced witness. I have noth
ing against this world. I have been one
of the most fortunate, or, to use a more
Christian word, ouo of the most blessed
of men—blessed in my parents, blessed
in the placo of my nativity, blessed in
my health, blessed in my field of work,
blessed in my natural temperament,
blessed iu my family, blessed in my op
portunities, blessed in a comfortable
livelihood, blessed iu the hope that my
soul will go to heaven through the par
doning mercy of God, and my body, un
less it be lost at sea or cremated in some
conflagration, will lie down in the gar
dens of Greenwood among my kindred
and friends, some already gone and oth
era to come after me. Life to many has
been a disappointment, but tu mo it has
been a pleasant surprise, uud yot I de
clare that if I did not feel that God was
now my friend nnd ever present help I
should be wretched nnd terror stricken.
But I waut more of him. I have thought
over this text and pleached this sermon
to myself until with all tbo arousod
energies of my body, mind nnd soul I
can cry out, “As the hart panteth aftor
the water brooks, so panteth my soul
aftor thee, O God.”
Through Jesus Christ make this God
your God, and you can withstand any
thing nnd everything, nnd that wliioli
nffrights others will inspiro y6u. As iu
timo of an enrtbquako wheu an old
Christinn woman was asked whether
sho was soared, answorod, “No, I am
glad that I have a God who onn shake
tho world,” or, as in a financial panic,
when a Christinn inorchnnt was asked
if he did not fear ho would break, un-
swered: “Yes, I shall break when the
Fiftieth Psalm breaks in tho fiftoonth
verso, ‘Call upon mo in tho day of trou
ble; I will delivor tlioo nnd thou shalt
glorify me. ’ ” Oh, Christian mon and
omen, pursued of nnunyauoes aud ex
asperations, remember that this hunt,
whethor a still hunt or a hunt in full
ory, will soon bo over. If over a whelp
looks ashamed and rondy to slink out of
sight, it is when in tho Adirondacks a
deer by one tremendous plunge into Big
Tnpper inko gets away from bim. Tho
disappointed canine swims iu a little
way, bnt, dofeatod, swims out again
and cringes with humiliated yawn ut
tho foot of hismnstor. And how abashed
and ashamed will all your earthly trou
bles bo when you havo dashed into tbo
river from under the throne of God, nnd
tbo heights nnd depths of lionven aro
between you nnd yonr pursuers.

Wo nvo told iu Revelation xxii, 16,
Without are dogs," by whioh I con
clude there is a whole kennel of bounds
outside the gate of heaven, oi', as wheu
mnstor goes in through a door his dog
lies on the steps waiting for him to
come out, so tho troubles of this life may
follow us to the shining door, but they
cannot get iu. “Without aro dogs I” I
have seen dogs and owned dogs that I
would not be chagrined to see in the
heavenly city. Somo of tho grand old
watchdogs who nro tho constabulary of
the homes iu solitary places nnd for
years lmvo boon tho only protection for
wifo and child, somo of the shepherd
dogs that drive back tho wolves and
bark away tho flocks from going too
near the preoipiuo, and some of tbo dogs
whose necks and paws Lnndseer, tho
painter, has made immortal, would not
find me shutting them out from theguto
of shining pearl. Somo of those old St
Boruard dogs that have lifted perishing
travelers out of tho Alpine snow, tho
dog that John Brown, the Scotch essay
ist, saw ready to spring at tbo surgeon
lest in removing the cauoer ho too muoh
hurt the pooy woman whom tho dog felt
bound to protect, and dogs that wo ca
ressed iu our childhood days or that in
later time laydown on tho rug in seem
ing sympathy when our homos were
desolated. I sny, if somo soul entoriug
heaven should happen to leavo tho gate
njar and these faithful creatures should
quietly walk in it would not ut nil dis
turb my heaven. But all those human
or brutal hounds that have chased nnd
torn and lacerated tho world—yea, all
that now bito or worry or tear to pieces
.shall bo prohibited. “Without are
dogs I” No plueo there for harsh critics
or backbiters or despoilorsof tho reputa
tions of othors. Down with you to the
kennels of darkuosa and despair 1 Tho
hart has reached the eternal water
brooks, and the panting of the long
chase is quieted in still pastures and
"there shall nothing hurt or destroy in
all God’s holy mountain.”
Oh, when somo of you got there, it
will be like wlmt a hunter tolls of when
pushing his onuoe far up north ir. tho
winter uud amid tho ice floes and 100
miles, ns he thought, from any other
humnn beings! Ho was startled ouo day
as bo heard a stopping on the ioe, and
he cooked tho ritlo, ready to meet any
thing that came near. Ho found a man,
barefooted and insane from long expo
sure, approaching him. Taking him into
his oanoo and kindling lives to warm
him, ho restored him and found out
where he had lived and took him to his
home and found ull the village in great
excitement. A hundred men were
searching for this lost man, und his
family und friends rushed out to moet
him, and, as had boon agreod at his
first uppearnneo, bolls were rung and
guns were fired and banquets sproad
aud tbe resoner loaded with presents.
Well, when some of you step out of this
wilderness, where yon have been chillod
and torn nnd sometimes lost nmid the
ioebergs, into tho warm groutings of all
the villages of tho glorified aud your
friends rush out to give you welcoming
kiss, tho news tliut tbere is another soul
fotever saved will call the caterers of
heuvon to spread tho banquet and the
bellmen to lay bold of the rope in the
tower, aud whilo the chnlices click at
the feast and tho bells clnng from the
turrets it will be a scone so uplifting I
pray God I may be there to take part
iu tbe celestial morrimeut. “Until the
day break and the shadows fleo away
be thou like u roe or a young hart upon
the mountains of Bother.”
