Discourse.
Subject: Tbe Water Brooks—The Gospel
of Kef re aliment Shows How We May
Elude the Hounds of Trouble and
Safely Keacli the Lake of Divine Solace.
[Copyright, Louis Klopsch, 1899.1
Washisqton, D. C.—The Gospel as a
great refreshment is here set forth by Dr.
Talmage, under a figure which will be
found particularly graphic by those who
have gone out as hunters to iind game in
the mountains; test, Psalm xlii., 1, “As the
hart panteth after the water brooks.” 0
David, who must some time have seen a
deer hunt, points us hero to a hunted stag
making for the water. The fascinating ani
mal, called in my text the hart, is the same
animal that in sacred and profane litera
ture is called the stag, the roebuck, the
hind, the gazelle, the reindeer. In central
Syria in Bible times there were whole pas
ture fields of thorn, as Solomon suggests
when he says, ‘‘l charge you by the hinds
of the Held.” Their antlers jutted from
the long grass as they lay down. No hunter
who has been long in “John Brown’s tract”
will wonder that In the Bible they were
classed among clean animals, for the dews,
the showers, the lakes, washed them as
clean as the sky. When Isaac, the patri
arch, longed for venison, Esau shot and
brought home a roebuck. Isaiah compares
the sprigbtliness of the restored cripple of
millennial times to the long and quick
jump of the stag, saying, “The lame shall
leap as the hart.” Solomon expressed his
disgust at a hunter who, having shot a
deer, is too lazy to cook it, saying, “The
slothful man roasteth not that which he
took in hunting.”
But one day David, whilo far from the
home from which he had been driven and
sitting near the mouth of a lonely cave
where he had lodged and on the banks of
a pond or river, hears a pack of hounds in
swift pursuit. Because of the previous
silence of the forest the clangor startles
him, and he says to himself, “I wonder
what those dogs are after.” Then there is
a crackling in the brushwood and the loud
breathing of some rushing wonder of the
woods, and the antlers of a deer rend the
leaves of the thicket, and by an instinct
which all hunters recognize it plunges iuto
a pond or lake or river to cool its thirst
and at the same time, by its capacity for
swifter and longer-swimming, to get away
from the foaming harriers.
David says to himself: “Aha! That is
myself! Saui after me, Absalom after me,
enemies without number after me. lam
chased, their bloody muzzles at my heels,
barking at my good name, barking after
my body, barking after my soul. Oh, the
hounds, the hounds! But look there!”
says David, “That hunted deer has splashed
into the water. It puts its hot lips and
nostrils into the cool wave that washes the
lathered flanks, and it swims away from
the fiery canines, and it is free at last.
Oh, that I might And In the deep, wide
lake of God’s mercy and consolation es
cape from my pursuers! Oil, for the
waters of life and rescue! As the hart
panteth after the water brooks, so panteth
my soul after thee, O God!”
Home of you have just come from the
Adiroudacks, and the breath of the balsam
and spruce and piue is still on you. The
Adiroudacks are now populous with
hunters, and the deer are being slain by
the score. Once while there talking with a
hunter I thought I would like to see
whether my text was accurate in its allu
sion, and as X heard the dogs baying a lit
tle way off and supposed they were on the
track of a deer I said to the huntorin rough
corduroy, “Do the deer alwuys make for
the water when they are pursued?” He
said: “Oh, yes, mister! You see, they are
a hot and thirsty animal, and they know
where the water is, and when they hoar
danger in the distance they lift their ant
lers and snuff the breeze and start for Rac
quet or Loon or Saranac, and we get into
our cedar shell boat or standby the runway
with rifle loaded ready to blaze away.”
My friends, that is one reason why X like
the Bible so much. Its allusions are so
true to nature. Its partridges are real part
ridges, its ostriches real ostriches and its
reindeer real reindeer. Ido not won
der that this antlered glory of the text
makes the hunter’s eye sparkle and his
cheek glow and his respiration quicken, to
say nothing of its usefulness, although it is
the most useful of all game, its flesh deli
cious, its skin turned into human apparel,
its sinews fashioned into bow strings, its
antlers putting handles on cutlery and
the shavings of its horns used as a restora
tive, its name taken from the hart and
called hartshorn. By putting aside its
usefulness this enchanting creature seems
made out of gracefulness and elasticity.
What an eye, with a liquid brightness as if
gathered up from a hundred lake3 at sun
set! The horns a coronal branching into
every possible curve, and, after it seems
done, ascending into other projections of
exquisiteness, a tree of polished bone, up
lifted iu pride or swung down for awful
combat! It is velocity embodied, timidity
impersonated, the enchantment of the
woods, eye lustrous iu life and pathetic in
death,, the splendid animal a complete
rhythm of muscle and bone and color and
attitude and locomotion, whether couched
in the grass among the shadows or a living
bolt shot through the forest or turning at
bay to attack the hounds or rearing for its
last fail under the buckshot of the trapper.
It is a splendid appearance, that the
paiuter’s pencil fails to sketch, and only a
hunter’s dream on a pillow of hemlocks at
tho foot of St. Eegis is able to picture.
When twenty miles from any settlement,
it eomes down at eventide to the lake’s
edge to drink among the lilypads, and,
with Us sharp-edged hoof, shatters tho
crystal of I.ong lake, it is very picturesque.
But only when after miles of,pursuit, with
heaving sides and boiling tongue and eyes
swimming in death, the stag leaps from
clill to cliff into Upper Saranac can you re
alize how much David had suffered from
his troubles and bow much he wanted God
when he expressed himself in the words,
“As tho hart pauteth after the water
brooks, so panteth my soul after Thee, 0
God.”
Well, now, let all those who have coming
after them the lean hounds of poverty or
the black hounds of persecution or the
spotted hounds of vicissitude or the pale
hounds of death or who are in any wise
pursued run to the wide, deep glorious
lake ef divine solace and rescue. The
most of the men and women whom I hap
pen to know, at different times, if not now,
have had trouble after them, shnrp
muzzled troubles, swift troubles, all de
vouring troubles. Many of you have
made the mistake of trying to fight them.
Somebody meanly attacked yon, and you
attacked them. They depreciated you, and
you depreciated them, or they overreached
you in a bargain, and you tried, in WitU
street parlance, to get a corner on them.
Or you have had a bereavement, and in
stead ot being submissive you are fighting
that bereavement. You charge on the doe
tors who have failed to effect a cure, or
you charge on the carelessness of the rail
read company tfirough which the accident
occurred. Or you are a*ehronic invalid,
and you fret and worry and scold and won
der why you cannot be well like other peo
ple, and you angrily charge on the neu
ralgia or the laryngitis or tha ague or the
side headache. The fact is yon are a deer
at bay. Instead of running to the waters
ef divine consolation and sinking your
thirst and cooling your body and soul in
the good eheer of the gospel and swim
ming away into the mighty deeps of God’s
love, you are lighting a whole kennel ef
barriers.
Some time ago I saw in the Aifrondacks
a dog lying across the road, and he seemed
arable to get up, and I said to some hunt
. ep.„ “What is the matter with that dog?”
'tf’jiev answered. "A deer hurt bba,” and I
he bad a great swollen paw auvl a hat-

horns. 'mfiV
There arc whole chai'j Bf lakes in the
Adirondaeks, and fromS O JB height you can
see thirty lakes, and th\ “are said to be
over 800 in the great wii--Aness. So near
are they to each other t jat your mountain
guide picks up and capses the boat from
iake to lake, the smgil distance between
them for that reason called a “carry.”
And the realm of God’s word is one long
chain of bright, refreshing lakes, each
promise a lake, and a very short carry be
tween them, and, though for ages the
pursued have been drinking out of them,
they are full up to the top of the groan
banks, and the same David describes them,
and they seem so uear together that in
three different places he speaks of them
as a continuous river, saying, “There is a
river the streams whereof shall make glad
the city of God.” “Thou Shalt make them
drink of the rivers of thy pleasures;”
“Thou greatly enrichest it w th the river
of God, which is full of water.” .
But many of you have turned your back
on that supply and confronted your troub
le, and you are soured with your circum
stances, and you are fighting society, and
you are fighting a pursuing world, and
troubles, instead of driving you into the
cool lake of heavenly comfort, have made
you stop and turn round and lower your
head, and it is simply antler against tooth.
Ido not blame you. Probably under the
same circumstances I would have done
worse. Bat you arc all wrong. You need
to do as the reindeer does in February and
March—it sheds its horns. The Bubbinieal
writers allude to this resignation of antlers
by the stag when they say of a man wh
ventures his money in risky enterprises he
has hung it on the stag’s horns, and a pro
verb in the far east tells a man who has
foolishly lost his fortune to go and find
where the deer has shed his horns. My
brother, quit the antagonism of your cir
cumstances, quit misanthropy, quit com
plaint, quit pitching into your pursuer. Be
as wise as next spring will be tho deer of
the Adirondaeks. Shod your horns.
But very many of you who are wronged
of tho world—and if in any assembly be
tween the Atlantic and I’aciflo oceans it
wore asked that nil who had been badly
treated should raise both their hands, and
full response should he made, there would
be twice as many hands lifted as persons
present—l say many of you would declare,
“We have always done the best we could
and tried to be useful, and why we became
the victims of realignment or invalidism or
mishap is inscrutable.” Why, do you not
know that the finer a deer and the more
elegant its proportions and the more
beautiful its bearing the more anxious the
hunters and the hounds are to capture it?
Had that roebuck a ragged fur and
broken hoofs and an obliterated eye and a
limping gait the hunters would have said:
“Pshaw! Don’t let us waste our ammuni
tion on a sick door.” And the bounds
n ould have given a few sniffs of the tracks
and then darted off in another direction
for better game. But when they see a deer
with antlers lifted in mighty challenge to
earth and sky, and the sleek hide looks as
if it had been smoothed by invisible hands,
and the fat sides inclose the richest past
ure that could be nibbled from tho bank of
rills so clear they seem to have dropped
out of heaven, and the stamp of its foot de
fies the jack shooting lantern and the rifle,
the horn and the hound, that deer they will
have if they must needs break their neck
in the rapids. So if there wore no noble
stuff in your make up, if you were a bi
furcated nothing, if you were a for
lorn failure, you would be allowed to
go undisturbed, but the fact that the
whole pack is in full cry after you is proof
positivo that you are splendid game and
worth capturing. Therefore sarcasm
draws on you its “finest bead;” therefore
the world goes gunning for you with its
best Winchester breechloader. Htghost
comptiment is it to your talent or your
virtue or your usefulness. You wilt be as
sailed in proportion to your great achieve
ments. The best and the mightiest Being
the world ever saw had set after him all
the hounds, terrestrial and diabolio, and
they lapped his blood after the Calvarean
massacre. The world paid nothing to its
Redeemer but a bramble, four spikes and a
cross.
But what is a relief for all thoso pursued
of trouble and annoyance and pain and be
reavement? My text gives it to you in a
word of three letters, but each letter is a
chariot if you would triumph, ora throne
If you want to be crowned, or a lake if you
would slake your thirst—yea, a chain of
three lakes—G-o-d, the one for whom
David longed and the one whom David
found. You might as well meet a stag
which, after its sixth mile of running at
the topmost sjseed through thicket and
gorge and with the breath of the dogs
on his heels, has come in full sight of
Schroon lake and try to cool its projecting
and blistered tonguo with a drop of dew
from a blade of gra:ss as to attempt to
satisfy an immortal soul, when flying from
trouble nnd sin, with anything less deep
and high and broad and immense and in
finite and eternal than God. His comfort
—why, it embosoms all distress. His arm
—it wrenches off all bonduge. His hand—
it wipes away all tears. His Chrtstly
atonement—it makes us all right with the
past, and all right with the future, and all
right with God, and all right with man; and
all right forever.
Oh, when some of you get there it will be
like what a hunter tells of when he was
pushing his eauoe far up north in the win
ter and amid the iee floes and a hundred
miles, as he thought, from any other
human beings. He was startled one day
as he heard a stepping on the ice, and he
cocked the rifle, ready to meet anything
that came near. He found a man, bare
footed and insane from long exposure,
approaching him. Taking him into hie
canoe and kindling fires to warm him,
he restored him, found out where he
had lived and took him to his home
and found all the village in great excite
ment. A hundred men were searching for
this lost man, and his family and friends
rushed out to meet him, and, as had been
agreed at his first appearance, bells were
rung and guns were discharged and ban
quets spread and the rescuer loaded with
presents. Well, when some of you step
out of this wilderness, where you have been
chilled and torn and sometimes lost amid
the icebergs, into the warm greetings of
i all the villages of the glorified, and your
friends rush out to give you welcoming
! kiss, the news that there is an
! other soul forever saved will call
; the eaterers of heaven to spread the
banquet and the bellmen to lay hold of the
i rope in the tower, and while the ahalices
| click at the feast and the bells elang from
| the turrets it will be a scene so uplifting I
| pray God I may be there to take part in
the eelestial merriment. And now do you
' not think the prayer in Solomon’s Song
where ho compared Christ to a reindeer in
the night would make an exquisitely ap
! nropriate peroration to my sermon, "Until
the day break and the shadows flee away
j be thou like a roe or a veung hart wpoa
the mountains ef Bather?”

Two Big Vessels Compared.
The new White Star liuer tho
Oceanic, is the largest boat ever con
ttructed. Up to the present day the
Great Eastern held that distinction. It
will be, therefore, Interesting to give
some particulars of the older ship for
the purpose of comparison. Her
length on the upper deck was 692 feet,
whilst between perpendiculars it was
680 feet; she was, there, 13% feet
shorter than the Oceanic. In regard to
breadth the Great Eastern far exceed
ed the new White Star boat, being 83
feet on the beam, and, therefore, 15
feet the wider of the two. The depth
of the Great Eastern was 58 feet, but
that measurement was from her keel
to her highest deck, whilst above the
upper deck of the White Star ship
there are a promenade deck and a boat
deck. It was said that the weight of
the Great Eastern and her engines at
the time of launching was 12,000 tons;
the weight of iron in the hull was put
down at 8,000 tons, nnd the capacity
for coal and cargo was stated to be
18,000 tons. If the weight of ship and
engines are added to the latter figure
a displacement of 30,000 tons Is ob
tained, which is somewhat greater
than that of the Oceanic.
Prof. Walter Wilson,
Of the f-'avannah High School, says:
“I feel it my duty to testify to the won

A late Invention in the electrical
world possesses Interest for young
girls who are “keeping steady com
pany.” Heretofore It has been ' im
possible to “turn down" an Incandes
cent light It was all the light or
nothing. The new invention consists
of a double carbon, each attached to a
wire, so that when both are burning
the regular sixteen-candle power Is
given to those who are In the room.
But a simple twist at the burner cuts
off half and gives but eight-candle
light. But the inventor lias not gone
far enough. He should have made
four filaments in his lamp, each of
four-candle power. Then when the
light is dimmed it would have been
possible to have had a four-candle
light, and this is about the amount de
manded by those engaged in tho com
mendable business of sparking. Even
a four-candle light may be looked up
on with disfavor by those who are well
advanced In love, but the average bliss
hunters would be satisfied. In all
probability there will be another Im
provement patented la due time which
wll make a perfect substitute for the
old-fashioned lamp, which Is always
ready upon proper occasions to give
twenty-five-candle power or one-candle'
power, depending upon the circum
