“REV. T>*R. TALM^m The Eminent Divine’s SundaJl 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- Ijikn head, showing where the antlers isii mr 2r ■m ■■ | • >s? - ' mo Jb' -ssaifc i -1 .yBL-MI Bn lu; 1 , pW - - ■ - ' ''""M \ .me Abut tl" 1 with him.

'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?” [Mm Dizzy?

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 derful curative properties of Tetteriue. It has cured in a few days my son, whose feet had been very badly afflict ed with some stubborn skin trouble, after having used a number of reme dies without any benefit.” 50e. at druggists or by mail from J.

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 stances whether papa was reading or lurelia entertninlng herwlllie boy.
