[C ipynght IHtW. I
Washington. D. C. —This discourse of
Dr. Talmage is u full length portrait of a
virtue which all admire, and the lessons
taught</fre very helpful; text Hebrews x,
have need of patience.”
s, we are in awful need of it. Some
us have a little of it, and some of us
•'have rone af all. There is less of this
grace in the world than of almost any
other. .Faith, hope and charity are all
abloor’/in hundreds of souls where you
find ' < /jf specimen of patience. Paul, the
aut/or of the text, on a conspicuous occa
sion lost his patience with a coworker,
iV.id from the way he urges this virtue
upon the Hebrews, upon the Corinthians,
upon the Thessalonians, upon the Ro
mans, upon the Colossians, upon the
young theological student, Timothy, I
conclude he was speaking out of his own
need of more of this excellence. And I
•only wonder that Paul had any nerves left.
Imprisonment, flagellation, Mediterranean
cyclone, arrest for treason and conspir
acy, the wear and tear of preaching to
angry mobs, those at the door of a thea
tre and those on the rocks of Mars hill,
left him emaciated and invalid and with a
broken voice and sore eyes and nerves a
jangle. He gives us a snap shot of him
self when he describes his appearance and
his sermonic delivery by saying, “In bodily
presence weak and in speech contempti
ble,” and refers to his inflamed eyelids
when, speaking of the ardent friendship of
the Galatians, he says, “If it had been
possible., ye would have plucked out your
own eyes and have given them to me.”
We all admire most that which eve have
least of. Those of us with unimpressive
visage most admire beauty; those of us
with discordant voice most extol musical
cadence; those of us with stammering
speech most wonder at eloquence; those
of us who get provoked at trifles and are
naturally irascible appreciate in others the
equopoise and the calm endurance of pa
tience. So Paul, with hands tremulous
with the agitations of a lifetime, writes of
the “God of patience” and of “ministers
■of God in much patience” and of “patience
of hope” and tells them to “follow after
patience,” and wants them to “run with
patience,” and speaks of those “strength
ened with all might to all patience,” and
looks us all full in the face as he makes
the startling charge, “Ye have need of
patience.”
The recording apgel, making a pen out
of some plume of a bird of paradise, is not
..getting ready to write opposite yout name
•anything applaudatory. All your sublime
equilibrium of temperament is the result
•of worldly success. But suppose things
mightily change with you, as they some
times do change. You begin to go down
hill,, und it is amazing how many there are
to down when you begin to go in ■
that (. ejection. A great investment fails.
The silver mine ceases to yield.
You get land poor; your mills, that yield
ed marvels of wealth, are eclipsed by
mills with newly invented machinery; you
get under the feet of the bears of Wall
street. For the first time in your life you
need to borrow' money, and no one is will
ing to lend. Under the harrowing worri
ment you get a distressful feeling at the
base of your brain, insomnia and nervous
dyspepsia lay hold of you. Your health
goes down with your fortune; your circle
of acquaintances narrows, and where once
you were oppressed by the fact that you
had not time enough to return one-half of
the social calls made upon you now the
card basket in your hallway is empty, and
your chief callers are your creditors and
the family physician, who comes to learn
the effect of the last, prescription. Now
you understand how people can become
pessimistic and cynical and despairful.
You have reached that stage yourself.
Now you need something that you have
not. But I know of a re-enforcement that
you can have if you will accept it. Yon
der comes up the road or the sidewalk a
messenger of God. Her attire is unpre
tending. She has no wings, for she is not
an angel, but there is something in her
countenance that implies rescue and deliv
erance. She comes up the steps that once
were populous with the affluent and into
the hallway where the tapestry is getting
faded and frayed, the place now all empty
of worldly admirers. I will tell you her
name if you would like to know it. Paul
baptized her and gave her the right name.
She ia not brilliant, but strong. There is
a deep quiethood in her manner and a
firmness in her tread, and in her hand is a
scroll rereading her mission. She comes
from heaven*. Sfc; was born in the throne
room of the King" This is Patience. “Ye
have need of patience.’’
First, patience with the faults of others.
No one keeps the Ten Commandments
equally well. One’s temperament decides
which commandments he shall come near
est to keeping. If we break some of the
commandments ourselves, why be so hard
on those who break others of the ten? If
you and I run against one verse of the
twentieth chapter of Exodus, why should
we so severely excoriate those who run
against another verse of the same chap
ter? Until we are perfect ourselves we
ought to be lenient with our neighbor’s
imperfections. Yet it is often the case
that the man most vulnerable is the most
hypercritical. Perhaps he is profane and
yet has no tolerance for theft, when pro
fanity is worse than theft, for, while the
latter is robbery of a man, the former is
robbery of God. Perhaps he is given to
defamation and detraction and yet feels
himself better than some one who is
guilty of manslaughter, not realizing that
the assassination of character is the worst
kind of assassination. The laver for wash
ing in the ancient tabernacle was at its
side burnished like a looking glass, so that
those that approached that laver might
see their need of washing, and if by the
gospel looking glass we discovered our own
need of moral cleansing we would be more
economic of denunciation. The most of
those who go wrong are the victims of cur
eumstanees, and if you and I had been
rocked in the same iniquitous cradle, and
been all our lives surrounded by the same
baleful influences we would probably have
done just as badly, perhaps worse.
We also have need of patience with slow
results of Christian work. We want to
see our attempts to do good immediately
successful. The world is improving, but
improving at so deliberate a rate; why not
more rapidity and momentum? Other
wheels turn so swiftly; why not the gos
pel chariot take electric speed? I do not
know. I only know that it is God’s way.
We whose cradle and grave are so near to
gether have to hurry up, but God. who
manages this world and the universe, is
from everlasting to everlasting. He takes
500 years to do that which He could do in
five minutes. His clock strikes once in a
thousand years. While God took only a
week to fit up the world for human resi
dence, geogolgy reveals that the founda
tions of the world were eons in being laid,
and God watched the glaciers, and the fire,
and the earthquakes, and the volcanoes as
through centuries and millenniums they
were shaping the world before that last
week that put on the arborescence. A
few days ago my friend was talking with a
geologist. As they stood near a pile of
rocks my friend said to the scientist, “I
suppose these rocks were hundreds of
thousands of years in construction?” And
the geologist replied, “Yes, and you might
say millions of years, for ho one knows
but the Lord, and He won’t tell.”
If it took so long to make this world at
the start, be not surprised if it takes a
long while to make it over again now that
it has been ruined.
The Architect has promised to recon
struct it, and the plans are all made, and
at just the right time it will be so com
plete that it will be fit for heaven to move
in, if, according to the belief of some of
my friends, this world is to be made the
eternal abode of Unrighteous.
The wall of is going up, and
my only anxiety is to have the one brick
that I am trying for that wall
turn out to be the ngfyiliiipe and smooth
on all sides, so that the blaster Mason will
not reject it, or have much work with the
trowel to get it into place. 1 am respon
sible for only that one brick, though you
may be responsible for a panel of the door
or a carved pillar or a glittering dome.
So we are God’s workmen, and all we
have to do is to manage our own hammer
or ax or trowel until the night conies in
which no man can work, and when the
work is all completed we will have a right
to say rejoicingly: “Thank God, I was
privileged to help in the rearing of that
temple! I had a part in the work of the
world’s redemption.”
Again, we have need of patience under
wrong inflicted, and who escapes it in
some form? It comes to all people in pro
fessional life in the shape of being misun
derstood. Because of this, how many peo
ple fly to newspapers for an explanation.
You see their card signed by their own
name declaring they did not say this or
did not do that. They fluster and worry,
not realizing that every man comes to be
taken for what he is worth, and you can
not, by any newspaper puff, be taken for
more than you are worth nor by any news
paper depreciation be put down. There
is a spirit of fairness abroad in the world,
and if you are a public man you are classi
fied among the friends or foes of society.
If. you are a friend of society, you will find
plenty of adherents, Mid if you are the
foe of society you cannot escape reprehen
sion. Paul, you were right when you said,
not more to the Hebrews than to us, “Ye
have need of patience.” I adopted a rule
years ago which has been of great service
to me, and it may be of some service to
you: Cheerfully consent to be misunder
stood. God knows whether we are right
or wrong, whether we are trying to serve
Him or damage His cause. When you can
cheerfully consent to be misunderstood,
many of the annoyances and vexations of
life will quit your heart, and you will come
into calmer seas thap you have ever sailed
on. The most misunderstood being that
ever trod the earth was the glorious Christ.
The world misunderstood His pradle and
concluded that one so poorly horn could
never be of much importance. They
charged Him with inebriety and called
Him a winebibber. The sanhedrin misun
derstood Him, and when. It was put to
the vote whether He was guilty or not of
treason He got but one vote, while all the
others voted “Aye, aye.” They misun
derstood His cross, and concluded that if
He had divine power He would effect His
own rescue. They misunderstood His
grave,’ and declared that His body had
been stolen by infamous resurrectionists.
He so fuliy consented to be misunder
stood that, harried and slapped and sub
merged with scorn, He answered not a
word. You cannot come up to that, but
you can imitate in some small degree the
patience of Christ. •
There are enough present woes in the
world without the perpetual commemora
tion of nast miseries. If you sing in your
horrie or your church, do not always choose
tunes in long meter. Far better to have
your patience augmented by the considera
tion that the misfortunes of this life must
soon terminate.
This last summer I stood on Sparrow
hill, four miles from Moscow. It was the
place where Napoleon stood and looked
upon the city which he was about to cap
ture. His army had been in long marches
and awful fights and fearful exhaustions,
and when they eame to Sparrow hill the
shout went up from tens of thousands of
voices, “Moscow, Moscow!” I do not
wonder at the transport. A ridge of hills
sweeps round the city. A river semicir
cles it with brilliance. It is a spectacle
that you place in your memory as one of
three or four most beautiful scenes in all
the earth. Napoleon’s army marched on
it in four divisions, four overwhelming tor
rents of valor and pomp, down Sparrow
hill and through the beautiful valley and
across the bridges and into the palaces,
whidh surrendered without one shot cf
resistance because the avalanche of troops
was irresistible. There is the room in
which Napoleon slept, and his pillow,
which must have been very uneasy, for,
oh, how short his stay! Fires kindled in
all pkrts of the city simultaneously drove
out that army into the snowstorms under
which 95,000 men perished. How soon did
triumphal march turn into horrible demo
lition!
To-day while I speak we come on a high
hill, a glorious hill of Christian anticipa
tion. These hosts of God have had a long
march and fearful battles and defeats have
again and again mingled with the victor
ies, but to-day ws come in sight of the
great city, the capital of the universe, the
residence of the King and the home of
those who are to reign with Him for ever
and ever. Look at the towers and hear
them ring with eternal jubilee.
Look at the house of many mansions,
where many of our loved ones are. Be
hold the streets of burnished gold and
hear the rumble of the chariots of those
who are more than conqueiors. So far
from being driven back, all the twelve
gates are wide open for our entrance. We
are marching on and marching on, and our
every step brings us nearer to the city.
At what h 0... we shall enter we have no
power to foretell, but once enlisted amid
the blood washed host our entrance is cer
tain. It may be in the bright noonday or
the dark midnight. It may be when the
air is iaijen with springtime fragrance or
chilled with falling snows. But enter we
must and enter we will through the grace
offered us as the chief of sinners. Higher
hills than any I have spoken of will guard
that city. More radiant waters than I
saw in the Russian valley will pour through
that great metropolis. No raging confla
gration shall drive us forth, for the only
Jires kindled in that city will be the fires
of a splendor that shall ever hoist and
never die. Reaching that shining gate,
there will be a parting, but no tears at the
parting. There will be an eternal farewell,
but no sadness in the utterance. Then
and there we will part with one of the
best friends we ever had. No place for
her in heaven, for she needs no heaven.
While love and joy and other graces enter
heaven, she will stay out. Ratience, beau
tiful Patience, long-suffering Patience, will
at that gate say: “Good'bye. I helped you
in the battle of life, but now that you have
gained the triumph you need me tio more.
I bound up your wounds, but now they
are all healed. I soothed vour bereave
ments, but you pass now into the reun
ions of heaven. I can do no more for you,
and there is nothing for me to do in a city
where there are no burdens to carry.
Good-bye. I go back into the worll from
which you came up to resume my tour
among the hospitals and sick rooms and
bereft households and almshouses. The
cry of the world’3 sorrow reaches my ears,
and I must descend. Up and down that
poor suffering world I will go to assuage
and comfort and sustain until the world
itself expires and on all its mountains and
in all its valleys and on all its plains there
is not one soul left that has need of pa
tience.”

ON THE CULTURE OF FERNS.
Two Varieties That Mav be Raised Sue
cessfully-The Best Kind of Soil.
In a recent lecture Dr. McFarlane,
of the University of Pennsylvania,
gave the following facts regarding the
culture of ferns; The two types of
ferns that can be raised successfully
are the hardy and the hothouse varie
ties. The former are the more difficult
on account of the hot, dry atmosphere
of most houses. Ferns need an occa
sional freezing, and do best when
grown under the shade of trees or
bushes. Much moisture must be al
lowed them if they are kept In a warm
room.
All fern growers should first consid
er the natural conditions under which
the plants grow, and try to reproduce
the same In transplanting them; In
the cases of those ferns that live in
the rocks, etc., of course this is im
possible.
Of the hothouse ferns the following
types are best adapted to indoor con
ditions: Asplenlum (spleenwort), Adl
antum (maidenhair), Pteris (broeken)
and Nephrolepls (Boston fern).
The lecturer stated that, with the
exception of the maidenhair, which re
quires a heavier, richer lcam, the soil
in which ferns are planted should be
a mixture of one-tliird sand, one
quarter fibrous peat, one-half of brok
en manure sod and one-quarter to
one-sixth of leaf mould. The latter
should be taken from the woods, and
its principal ingredient should be the
decay of leaves. If sifted before It
is used Its value will be Increased.
Peat, which Is scarce In many places,
may be replaced with particles from
sandstone blocks or micaceous rocks.
These will keep the soil open at the
roots. Always place a large piece of
broken pot, curved side up, over the
hole in the bottom of the pot In order
to allow free drainage. Over this put
broken bits about an inch deep, then
fill in with prepared soil. The wide,
flat pot Is the best for the purpose, as
it allows room for the roots to spread
and also for creeping stems.
To overcome the dryness of air In
the average house, place water baths
near the heaters. The resulting moist
ure will be beneficial to human be
ings as well as to the plants. If sub
jected to a dry atmosphere, water the
ferns well every day and occasionally
plunge the pot in water up to the
leaves. Once in a while sprinkle with
a watering pot—New York Tribune.

AN APT ANSWER.
The dangers associated with the j
fishing industry on the Newfoundland j
banks are many and grave. Foremost j
among them Is that the dories may be !
upsot while fishing, which involves
the almost inevitable loss of their oc- j
eupants. Callous captains, secure
themselves from the necessity of
going, frequently order their men out
when the weather does not warrant
it, and disasters nre the result. One
of these brutal skippers was aptly
answered last year by a bankman, of
whose courage or capacity there was
no question.
“Out with you,” shouted the Cap
tain. “Hurry up there. It's a line fish
ing day.”
"Oh, no, skipper,” replied the dory
man. “It’s too stormy to-day for a
boat to fish.”
“Nonsense, man,” replied the skip
per. “If my old grandmother from
Provlneetown was hero to-day she’d
get her dory out.”
“Then, skipper,” said the man, “if
her grandson will come out "viSth me
now I’ll haul my trawl.”
It is needless to say no dories were
launched from that schooner on that
date.—Philadelphia 1 .edger.

Rev. Henry Langford entirely cured ef Nervous Pros*
tratlon by Dr. Greene’s Hervura Blood
and Nerve Remedy.
BEV. HENRY LANGFORD.
Rev. Henry Langford, the eminent, Baptist divine, of Weston, W. Va., has just es
caped utter nervous and physical prostration. He is pastor of four churches. “For ton
years,” he said, “I have been nervous and growing worse all these yoars. During tho hut
four or five years I became so nervous I eoulil scarcely sign my name so it ooula bp read.
I was so nervous that I could not read my own sermon notes after they had been laid aside
awhile.
“I was unable to hold my head steady In the pulpit, nor could I hold or handle my
books and papors without embarrassment, owing to the trembling and weakness of my
hands and arms. I was so nervous that I could scarcely feed myself. In fact, my nervous
system was wrecked.
“ I tried many remedies recommended by physicians, hut found no permanent relief.
“One day I was in the store of R. B. Ogden, at Sardis, W. Va., arid he said to me:
* You take two bottles Of I)r. Greene’s Norvura blood and nerve remedy, and If you say it
don’t help you, you need not pay for it.’
“ I took two bottles of this medicine and found so much relief that I bought two more
bottles, and now lam wonderfully improved in health and in strength. Dr. Greene’s Nar
vura blood and nerve remedy dia it. I cun heartily and truthfully recommend it to the
eick. Too much cannot ho said in praise of this splendid medicine. I say this for the good
of other sufferers from nervous ami prostrating diseases who can bo cured by this remedy.
For myself, I am thankful to God that I found Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and norv*
remedy, and for what it lias done for mo.”
