REV. DR. TALMAGE. THE BROOKLYN DIVINE’S SUN¬ DAY SERMON. Subject: “The Saving Look.” Text: "Looking unto Jesus.”— Hebrews xfi.,a In the Christian life we must not go slip¬ shod.

When it has como to the tip end of the branch the tree is dead. Its seed fall to the ground and start other plants just as murderous. And so it is with sin. 11 is a poisonous plant while thnt and was planted in winding our soul about a long the ago, it comes body aud t he mind and tho soul, poisoning, poisoning, it poisoning—killing, Now, there would killing, bo killing ns goes. no need of my discoursing upon that this if there were 110 inconsiderate way of plucking thing out for mo plant. to como It is to a most a man who is in financial trouble and enlarge upon his trouble if I have no alleviation to offer.

Not ns a result of auy toil or trouble on oui port, but ouly as u result of “Looking unto Jesus.” “But what do you mean by ‘Look¬ ing faith. uuto Jesus? ” some ono inquires. I mean “What do you mean by faith?’ 1 mean believing?’ believing. "What do you mean bv I mean this: If you promise to do a certain thing for me, and I have con¬ fidence in your veracity—if you say you will give much, me such a thing and I need it very I come in confidence that you are an bouest man nnd will ilo what you say. Now, the Lord Jesus Christ says: “You arc in need of pardon and life anil heaven, you can have them if you couie and get mem.” You say: "I can’t como and ask find. I nm afraid You won’t give it to me.” Then you uro unbelieving. But you say: “1 will come nnd ask. I know, l-ord Jesus, Thou art in earnest about this matter. I come ised asking give for pardon. Thou Tlmu hast prom¬ to it to mo, wilt give it to me, T’ioi hast given it to mo.” That is faith. Do vou see it yet? “Oh,” says some one. “I can’t understand it.” No man ever did, without divine help. Faith is tho gift of God. You say: “That throws the responsi¬ bility gift of off God,' my shoulders.” No. Faith is the but it comes in answer to prayer.

So if a man in literary coin position resolves that ho will imitate the smoothness of Addison, or tho rugged vigor of Carlyle, or the weiredness of Spenser, or the epigramatic style of Ralph Waldo Emer pon, be will not succeed as well w mat man who cultures his own mi tural style. What is true in this respect is true in respect to ehar acter. There were men who were fascinated with Lord Byron. He was lame and wore a very large collar. Then there were tens of thousands of men who resolved that they would be just like Lord Byron, and they limped and wore of his large ius. collars, but they did not have any gen You cannot suc¬ cessfully copy a man whether he is bad or good. You may take the very best man that ever lived and try and live like him, and you wlH make a failure. There never was a better man than Edward Payson. Many have read his biography, not understanding they that be was growing a sick man, in and because they thought they were grace spirit. were growing There like him In depression of were men to copy Cowper, the poet, a glorious man, but sometimes afflicted with melancholy almost to insanity. The copyists got Cowper’s faults but none of his Virtues. There never was but one Being fit to copy. A few centuries ago He came out through humble surroundings,and with a gait and man¬ ner and behavior different from anything the world had seen. Among all classes of people He was a perfect, model. Among fishermen. Ho showed how fishermen should act. Among taxgatherers, He showed how taxgntherer: should act. Among lawyers, Ho showed how lawyers Ho showed should act. Among farmers how furmers should act. should Among rulers, He showed how rulers act. Critics tried to find in His conversation or sermons some thing they unwise found or unkind it. They or inaceulate: but never watched Him. -h how they watched Him! Hq never went into a house but they knew it, and they knew and how whether long He stayed, and when He came out, He had wine for dinner. Slander twisted her whips and wagged her poisoned tongue and set her traps, but could not catch Him. Little children rushed out to get from Him a kiss, and old men tottered out to the street corner to see Him pass. Do you want an illustration of devotion, behold Him whole nights in prayer. Do you want an example of suffering, see His path across Palestine tracked with blood. Do you and want an example giving of patience, sharp see Him abused never ono retort. Do you want an idle example of industry, see Him with¬ out one moment. Do you want a speci¬ men of sacrifice, look at His life of self de¬ nial, His death of ignominy, His sepulcher of humiliation. Oh what an example! His feel wounded, yet He submitted to the journey. His back lacerated, and yet He carried the :ross. Struck, He never struck back again. Condemned, His yet he rose higher than in His calumniators, and with wounds i hand and wounds in His feet and wounds on His brow and wounds in His side, Ho ejaculated: “Father forgive them, brethren, they know not the what they do.” Ah, my that is pole by which to set your compass, that is the headland by which to steer, that is tho light by which to kindle ought your lamps, all follow. that is the How example it that we to would smooth iut tho roughness in our disposition, and the world would bo impressed by the trans¬ formation and would say: “I know what is tho matter with that man, he has been with Jesus aiul has learned of Him.” Alexander was going along with his army in Persia and the snow and ico were so great that the army halted and said: “Wo can’t march any further.” Then Alexander dis¬ mounted trom his horse, took a pickax, went ahead of his army and struck into the ice and snow. The soldiers said: “If ho can do that, we can do it,” and thoy took their picks and soon the way was cleared and the army marched on. So our Lord dismounted from His glory, and through all icy obstacles hews a path for Himself and a path for us, saying: “Follow Me! I do not ask you to go through any do suffering, lead or fight Foliow any battles whero I not the way!

On the morning ot the day on which the by foregoing Dr. Talmage, sermon was to have been delivered his church, the Brooklyn Tabernacle, was completely destroyed bj fire. Dr. Talmage has issued the following appeal Christendom: for aid to all his friends throughout To the People: By a sudden calamity wo are without a church. The building associated with so much that is dear to us is in ashes. In be¬ half of my stricken congregation I make ap¬ peal for its help, as our church has never con¬ fined work to this locality. Our church has never been sufficient either in size or appointments for tho people who come. We want to build something worthy of our city aud worthy of the cause of God. We want $100,000, build what which, is needed. added to I the insurance, will make appeal to all our friends throughout Christendom, to all denominations, creed to all creeds and those of no at all, to come to our assistance. I ask all readers of my sermons in the world over to contribute os far as their means will allow. What wo do os a Church depends upon the immediate response made to this call. I was on the eve of my departure for a brief visit to tho Holy Land, that I might be better prepared for my work here, but that visit must be postponed. I cannot leave until something is done to decide our future. May the God who has our destiny as individuals and churches in His hand appear for our de¬ liverance. be Response to this appeal to the people may sent to me. “Brooklyn, N.Y.” aud I'wii), with my own hands, acknowledge the receipt thereof.

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE. SELECTING TABLE OIL. In selecting your table oil never mind the label or brand. S«e that it is clear, limpid, a bright straw color, with the laintest tinge of green, and perfectly free from the least rancidity. Keep the bottle or “betty” in a cool dark place when not in use, as nothing causes it to become rancid so quietly as bright light By the way, this reminds ■ me. Do you ever have trouble with your ‘■canned fruits” spoiling? Especially canned tomatoes? I mean the good home made kind put up in glass jars, Just try this,—when you put them away wrap each jar in dark blue paper (you can get it from the drug store— tucy use it for Seidlitz powders). Then put the j irs away in a dark place. This is a good thing to rememfier and put in practice when you want to keep any¬ thing from spoiling from action of the light.— Ladiis’ Hums Jjurnal. now TO LAUNDRY COLORED CLOTIIES. Before putting colored clothes into water, says a lady in the Detroit Free Press, it is best to look them carefully over, and if thero are any grease spots, they should be washed out first, as thoy cannot be seen after tho articles are wet. Do not wash iu very hot water. Warm water does as good work and is not as trying on colors; that is, it will not ex¬ tract the color so much. Rub immedi ately, not allowing them to soak long. Soft soap should never hi used for any colored ciothes except for the various shades of yoliow calicoes, for which it is preferred. It nse such garments al¬ ways in soft water, while for the other colors hard water is preferable, and rinse them out as soon as they are washed; hang in tho shade. A little salt iu tho rinsing water serves to brighten aud set the colors of black, green aud blue calicoes. Alum dis¬ solved in the rinsing water is excellent for gi eon colors, while vinegar added to the rinse will brighten red and pink cottons as if wero new. For several days before the general wash-day, save up the water iu wuic potatoes have been boiled, and use this for black calicoes, dark lawns, and linens. It can be heated to the right temperature, using no soap. The goods will need no other starching, as tho po¬ tato water will stiffen them and also preseove the color. Never siarca black cotton with wheat flour. Another method much used by my grandmother for garments inclined to fade, was to wash them with lukewarm water, adding a beef’s gall in proportions of one half¬ pint to tnroo or four gallons of wa;er, rinsing in hard water. Do not use soap unless absolutely neces-ary. Most women make flour starch by mixing up tho flour with water until the mixture is free from lumps, and then pouring boiling water over it until it is of the proper consis ence. I think a better way is to pour tho prepared flour-water, free from lumps, slowly into a pot of boiling water, stirring it until it has cooled four or five minutes. S ra n it through a bag made of two thicknesses of dairy cloth, and then thin it with cold water. If the starch is made in this wav the clothes will have a better look. Do not iron calicoes with irons too hot, as the hot irons will change the colors very materially, es¬ pecially those that are' Ted. Garments that havo been starched should not be put away for several weeks or months where the air cannot circulate freely, as starch has a tendency to make the fiber tender when the goods are not exposed to air. RECIPES. Spiced Beef.—Four pounds of round beef, chopped fine; talco from it all the fat, add three dozjn small crackers, rolled fine, four eggs, one cup of milk, one tablespoonful ground mace, two tablespoonfuls melted butter; mix well, and put into nny tin pan that will hold it; baste with butter and water, and bake two hours in a slow oven. Rice Pudding.—Boil one-fourth of a cup of rice in one cup of milk until thi'k; add one one-lialf cups of milk and boii two minutes; add one table¬ spoonfuls of butter, and let it cool; add two tablespoon fuls of sugar, one-fourth of a teaspoon of cinnamon, the beaten yolks of four eggs and the whites of two; bake in buttered cups three-quar¬ ters of an hour. Green Peas with New Turnips.—Pee! a dozen now turnips of medium size, boil them until tender in suited boiling water; meantime .smoothly m:x in a saucepan a tablespoonful each of butter and flour and gradually stir in a pint of milk. Open a can of peas, drain them, run cold water through .them, draining again, aud heat them in the sauce, sea¬ soning pa.atably with salt and white pepper. When the turnips are tender scoop a hollow in tho center of each, fill it with peas, and arrange them upon the rest of the peas on a hot shallow dish. ▲boat Honey Bee*, I b»?e seen, writes G. W.

The honey bee is a “smith.” She draws out her work, us¬ ing her mand.bies in p ace of the smith’s hammer. I would be a simple impossi¬ of bility to build a wall as tli n as that the honeycomb by any other process. Beeswax is the result of disgested the honey, just as taliow results from diges ion of the food of the ox. But the beeswax, instead of of adhering animals, to the flesh, as in the case fat passes out of the body of the bee, through under one of the six faise pockets on the s de of the abdomen, in the form of thin sea es or pehets, and while seize they them are w arm and pliable the bees with their mandib es and weld them to the rims of the ceils, and cont nue to draw out the combs untill the primer depth of the cells are reached.

We began giving her Hood's Sarsaparilla. A marked improvement was noticed after she had taken only one bottle, and by a continued use of it her recovery was complete. And she is now, being seven years old, strong and healthy. The other members of my family have been greatly benefited by Hood's Sarsaparilla."— H. O. Jones, Aina, Lincoln Co^ He.
