CLUB HOLMES. BY HEWITT TAI.MAGE, D. I). I have buen told by a pio nincnt gentle man in club-life that three-fourths of the members of the great clubs of these cities are married men. That wife soon loses her influence over her husband who ner vously and foolishly looks upon all even ing absence as an assault on domesticity. How are the great enterprises of art and literature and beneficence and public weal to be carried on if every man is to have his world bounded on one side by his front-door step and oti the other by his back window, knowing nothing high er than his own attic or nothing lower than bis Own cellar? That wife who be comes jealous of her husband’s attention to art or literature, or religion or charity, is breaking her own scepter ot conjugal power. I know in this church an in stance where a wife thought that her husband was giving too many nights to Christian service, to prayer-meetings and to religious convocation. She systemat ically decoyed him away, until now he attends neither this nor any other church, and is or. a rapid way to destruction —his morals gone, and. 1 fear, his soul gone. Let any Christian wife rejoice when her husband consecrates evenings to the ser vice of God, or to charity, or to art, or to anything elevated; but let not men sac rifice home life to club life. I have the rolls of the members of a great many of the prominent clubs of these cities, and I can point out to you a great many names of men who are guilty of this sacrilege. They are as genial as angels at the club house and as ugly as sin at home. They are generous on all subjects of wine sup pers, yachts and fast horses, but they are stingy about the wife’s dress and the children’s shoes. That man has made that which might be a healthful recrea tion a usurper of his affections, and he lias married it, and lie is guilty of moral bigamy. 1 aider this process the wife, whatever her features, becomes uninter esting and homely. lie becomes critical of her, does not like the dresses, does not like the way she arranges her hair, is amazed that he ever was so unromantic as to off er her his hand and heart. She is always wanting money, money, money, when she ought to be discussing Dexter and Derby Day, and English drags with six horses, all answering the pull of one “ribbon.” I tell you there are thousands of houses in Brooklyn and New York being clubbed to death ! There are club-houses in these cities where membership always involves domestic shipwreck. Tell me that a man has joined a certain club; tell me noth ing more about him for fen years, and I will write his history if he is still alive. The man is a wine-guzzler, his wife broken-hearted or prematurely old, his fortune gone or reduced, and his home a mer3*hjftue in the directory. Hero are six secular Bights in the week. “What shall I do wjth them?” says the father and the husband. “I will give four of those nights 60the improvement and en tertainment of my family either at home or in good neighborhood; I will devote one to charitable institutions; I will de vote one to the club.” 1 congratulate you. Here is a man w]i3~ saysT "“IT fail! make a division of the six nights. T w ill take three for the club Hifti three for other purposes.” I trem ble. Here is a man who says: “Out of the six secular nights of the week I will devote live to the club-house and one to the home, which night I will spend in scowling like a March squall, wishing I was out spending it as I had spent the other five.” That man's obituary is written. Not one out of ten thousand that ever gets so lar on the wrong road ever stops. Gradually his health will fail through late hours and through too much stimulus. He will be first-rate prey for erysipelas and rheumatism of the heart. The doctor coming in will at a glance see it is not only present disease lie must fight, but years of fast living. The clergyman, for the sake of the feel ings of the family on the funeral day, w ill only talk in religious generalities. The men who got his yacht in the eter nal rapids will not be at the obsequies. They will have pressing engagements that day. They will send flowers to the eotlin and send their wives to utter words of sympathy, but they will have engage ments elsewhere. They neyer come. Bring me mallet and chisel and 1 will cut on the tombstone that man's epitaph : “Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord.” “No,” you say, “that would not he appropriate.” “Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his.” “No,” you say, “that would not be appropriate.” Then give me the mallet and chisel, and 1 will cut an honest epitaph : “Here lies the victim of a dissipating club-house.” I think that damage is often done by the scions of some aristocratic family, who belong to one of these dissipating club-houses. People coming up from humble classes feel it an honor to belong to the same club, forgetting the fact that many ot the sons and grandsons of the large commer cial establishments of the last generation are now, as to mind, imbecile; as to body, diseased ; as to morals rotten. If the club has advantaged you in an honorable calling it is a legitimate club. But has your credit failed? Are bargain makers more cautious how they trust you with a bill of goods? llaye the men whose names were down in the commer cial agency A1 before they entered the club been going down since in commer cial standing? Then lookout. You and 1 every day know of commercial estab lishments going to ruin through the so cial excesses of one or two members. Their fortunes beaten to death with ball player’s bat, or cut amidships by the front prow of the regatta, or going down under the swift hoofs of the last horses, or drowned in large potations of cognac or Monongahela. What is the club’s effect on your sense of moral and religious obligation ? Now, it I should take the names of all the peo ple in this audience this morning and put them on a roll, and then I should lay that roll back of the organ, and a hun dred years from now some one should take that roll and call it from A to Z there would not be one of you answer. I say that any association that makes me forget that fact is a bad association. When I go to Chicago I am sometimes perplexed at Buffalo, as I suppose many travelers are, as to whether it is better to take the Lake Shore route or the Michi gan Central, equally expeditious and equally safe, getting at the destination at the same time. But suppose that I hear that on one route the track is torn up, and tlie bridges are torn down, and the switches are unlocked? It will not take me a great while to decide which road to take. Now here are two roads in the fu ture, the Christian and the unchristian, the safe and unsafe. I had prayers before I joined the club. Did I have them after ? I attended the house of God before I connected myself with the club. Since that union with the club do I absent myself from religious influences? Which would you rather have in your hand when you come to die, a pack of cards or a Bible ? Wtawk would you rather have pressed to you? lips in tiie closing moment, the cup of Belshazzarean wassail or the chalice of Christian communion? Who would you rather have for your pall-hearers, the elders of a Christian church, or the com panions whose conversation was full of slang and innuendos? Who would you rather have tor you eternal companions, those men who spend their evenings bet ting, gambling, swearing, carousing and telling vile stories, or your little child, that bright girl whom the Lord took? Oh, you would not have been away so much nights, would you, if you had known she was going away so soon? Dear me, your house has never been the same since. Your wife has never bright ened up. She has not got over it; she never will get over it. How long the evenings are with no one to put to bed and no one to tell the beautiful Bible story ! What a pity it is that you can not spend more evenings at home in trying to help her bear that sorrow! You can never drown that grief in the wine-cup. You can never break away from the little arms that used to be flung around your neck when she used to say: “Papa, do stay home to-night; do stay home to night !” You will never be able to wipe from you lips the dying words of your little girl. The fascination of a dissipa ting club-house is so great that sometimes a man has turned his back on his home when his child was dying of scarlet fever. He went away. Before ho got back at midnight the eyes had been closed, the undertaker had done his work, and the wife, worn out with three weeks’ watch ing, lay unconscious in the next room. Then the returned father comes upstairs and sees the cradle gone and the windows up, and says: “What is the matter?” In the judgment day ho will find out what was the matter. Oh, man astray, God help you! Not so kind to wife as you used to be, not so patient with your children, your consience is not so much at rest. You laugh more now and sing louder than once, but are not half so happy. It is not the public drinking sa loon that Staking you down, but ix sim ply and your club-room. You do not make yourself as agreea ble in your family as once. You go home at 12 o’clock with an unnatural flush upon your cheek and a strange color in your eye that you got at the club. You merely acknowledge that you feel queer. Champagne may not, like whis ky, throw a man under the table; but if through anything you drink you gain an unnatural fluency of speech and glow of teeling, you are simply drunk, If those imperilled were heartless young men stingy young men—l would not be so sorry as l am; but there are many of them generous to a fault, frank, honest, cheerful, talented. I begrudge the devil such a prize. After awhile these per sons will lose all the frankness and honor for which they are now distin guished. Their countenances will get haggard, and, instead of looking one in the eye when they talk, they will look down. After awhile when the mother kindly asks “What kept you out so late?” they will make no answer, or will say: “That is my business!” They will come cross and befogged to the store and bank, and ever and anon neglect some duty, and after awhile will be dismissed; and then, with nothing to do, will rise in the morning at ten o’clock, cursing the servant because the breakfast is cold, aud then go down town and stand on the steps of a fashionable hotel and criticise the passers-by. While the young man who was a clerk in the cellar has come up to be the first clerk, and he who few years ago ran errands for the bank has got to be a cashier, and thousands of other young men of the city have gone up to higher and more responsible posi tions, he has been going down, until there he passes through the street with bloated lips and bloodshot eye and stag gering step, and hat mud-spattered and set sideways on a shock of greasy hair, the ashes of his cigar dashed upon his cravat. Here he goes! Look at him, all ye pure-hearted young men and see the work of the dissipating club-room. I knew one such who, after the contamina tions of the club-house, leaped out of the th ini-story window to put an end to his wretchedness. O, men who are victims of dissipating associations, your sins will follow you! I describe the history of thousands of thousands of households when I say that tho tea is rapidly taken and while yet the family linger the father shoves back his chair, has “an engagement,” lights his cigar and starts out, not returning uutil after midnight. That is the histo ry of three hundred and sixty-five days in the year, except when he is sick and cannot go out. How about home duties ? Have you fulfilled all your rows? Would your wife ever have married you with such a prospect ? Wait until your sons get to be sixteen or seventeen years of age and they, too, will shove back from the tea-table, have “au engage ment,” light their cigars and go over to their club houses, their night-key rat ling in your door after midnight—the efieet of your example. And as your son’s constitution may not be as yours, and the liquor he drinks more terribly drugged, he will catch up with you on the road to death, although you got the start of him. And so you will both go to hell together. BKWAKB. A revolving Drummond light on the front of a locomotive casts its gleam through the darkness as it is turned around. So I catch up the lamp of God’s trutii aud turn it round until its tremendous glare flashes into all the club-houses of our cities. Flee the pres ence of dissipating club-houses. “Paid your money.” Sacrifice that rather than your soul. “Good fellows,” are they? They cannot stay what they are under such Influences. But good character and a useful life thrive amid club-room associations never. The best way to make a wild beast cower is to look him in the eye, but the best way to treat the temptations I have described is to turn your back and fly!! Oh, my heart aches! I see men struggling to get out of the serfdom of bad habits, aud I vvant jto help them. 1 have knelt with them anc? .heard their cry for help. I have had then? rut ore hand on each of my shoulders and look me in the eye with an agony of earnestness that the judgement shall have no power to make me forget, and from their lips, scorched with the fires ol ruin, have heard them cry, “God help me!” There is no rescue for such save in the Lord Almighty.

This invaluable preparation is truly a triumph of scien tific skill, and no more ines timable benefit was ever be stowed on the mothers of the world. StagT It not only shortens thetime of labor and lessens the intensity of pain, hut, (letter than all, it greatly di minishes the danger to life to both mother and child, and leaves the mother in a condition highly favorable to speedy.recovery, and far less liable to flooding, convul sions, anil other alarming symptoms incident to linger ing and painful labor. Its truly wonderful eflicaoy in this respect entitles the Mother’s Friend to be ranked as one of the life saving appliances given to the world by the discoveries of modern science. From the nature of the ease, it will of course be un derstood that we cannot publish certificates concern ing this Remedy without wounding the delicacy of the writers. Yet we have hun dreds of such testimonials on file, and no mother who lies once used it wijl ever again he without it in her time of trouble. No More Terror! No More Pain ! No More Danger ! —to — Hotter or Child THE OREAD OF Motherhood Transformed to HOPE AND JOY I | Safety and Ease TO Sufiering Woman. A prominent physician lately remarked to the proprietor that, if it were adinissable to make public the letters we receive, the Mother’s Friend would outsell anything on the market. I most earnestly entreat every female expect ing to be confined to use Mother's Friend, Coupled with this entreaty I will add that during a long obstetrical practice (forty-four years) I have never known i* to fail to produce a safe aud quick delivery.
