Washinoton, D. C.— Dr. Talmage, in this
sermon, discusses a most attractive depart
ment of religious worship—the service of
song. His Idea wilt be received with in
terest by all who lovo to lift their voices in
praise In the Lord’s house. The text is
Nehsmith vll -> c7 > “And they had two hun
drod forty and five singing men and sing
ing women.”
Tho best music 1ms been rendered under
trouble. Tho first duet that I kuow any
thing of was given by Paul and Silas when
they sang praises to God and the prisoners
heard them. The Scotch Covenanters,
hounded by tbe dogs of persecution, sang
the psalms of David with more spirit than
they have ever since been rendered. The
captives in tho text had music left iu them,
and I declare that if they could find amid
all their trials two hundred and forty and
five singing men and singing women then
in tills day of gospel suultght aud free from
all persecution tnere ought to be a great
multitude of men and women willing to
sing the praises of God. All our churches
need arousal on this subject. Those who
can sing must throw their souls iuto the
exercise, aud those who cannot sipg must
learn how, and it shall he heart to heart,
voice to voice, hymn to shall hymn, sitell anthem jubilant to
anthem, and the music
with thanksgiving and tremulous with
pardon. Have noticed the construction
you ever
of tbe human throat as indicative of what
God means us to do with it? lu only an
ordinary throat and lungs there are four
teen direct muscles and thirty indirect
muscles that cau produce does a very great
variety of sounds. What that mean?
It means that vou should sing! Do you
suppose that God, who gives us such a
musical instrument as that, intends us to
keep it shut? Suppose some great tyrant
should get possession of tile musical in
struments of the world and should and lock tTib up
the organ ot Westminster abbey,
organ of Lucerne, and tho organ at Haar
lem, and the organ at Freiburg, and all the
other great musical instruments of the
world. You would call such a man as that
a monster, and yet you arc more wicked if,
with the human voice, a musical instru
ment of more wonderful adaptation than
all the musical instruments that man ever
created, you shut It against the praise of
God.
Let those refuse to sing
Who never knew our God,
But children of the heavenly King
Should speak their joys abroad.
Music seems to have been born in the
soul of tlie natural world. Tho omnipo
tent voice with which God commanded tho
world into being seems to liDger yet with
its majesty and sweetness, and vou hear it
in the gralnlleld, in the swoop of the wind
amid the mountain fastnesses, in the
canary’s warble and tho thunder shock, in
the brook’s tinkle and the ocean’s paean.
There are soft cadences in nature, and
loud uotes, some of which we cannot hear
at all, and others that are so terrific that
we cannot animalculte appreciate have them. their music, and
The
the spicula of hay and the globule of water of
are as certainly resonant with the voice
God as the highest heavens in which the
armies of the redeemed celebrate their
victories. When the breath ot the flower
strikes tho air and the wing of the firefly
cleaves it, there is sound and there is mel
ody. And, as to those utterances of nature
which seem harsh and overwhelming, it is
as when you stand in the midst of a great
orchestra and the sound almost rends your
ear because you are too near to catch the
blending of the music. So, my friends, we
stand too near the desolating storm and
the frightful whirlwind to catch the blend
ing of the music; but when that music
rises to where God is, and the invisible
being who float above us, then I suppose
tbe harmony is as sweet as it is tremen
dous. In the judgment day, that day
of tumult and terror, there will be no
dissonance to those who can appreciate
the music. It will be as when some
times a < great organist, in executing
some great piece, breaks down the in
strument upon which lie is playing the
music. So when the great march of the
judgment day is played under the hand of
earthquake and storm and conflagration
the world itself will break down with the
music that is played on it. Tho fact is, we
are uU deaf, or we should understand that
the whole universe is but one harmony—
the stars of the night only tho ivory keys
of a great instrument on which God’s lin
gers play the music of tlie spheres.
Music seems dependent on the law of
acoustics and mathematics, and yet where
these laws are understood at alt the art is
practiced. There are to-day 500 musical
journals in China. Two thousand years be
fore Christ the Egyptians practiced the art.
Pythagoras learned it. Lusus of Hermotne
wrote essays on it. Plato and Aristotle in
troduced it into their schools. But I have
not much interest in that. My chief inter
est is in tlie music of the Bible.
The Bible, like a great harp with inpu
merahle strings, swept by the lingers of in
spiration, trembles with it. So far back as
the fourtli chapter of Genesis you And the
first organist and harper—Jubal. So far
back as the thirty-first chapter of Genesis
vou find the first choir. All up and down
the Bible you find saerod music—at wed
dings, at inaugurations, at the understood treading of
tho wine press. The Hebrews
how to make musical signs above tho mus
ical text. When the Jews came from their
distant homes to the great festivals at
and Jerusalem, they brought harp and timbrel
Judaean trumpet and poured along the great
til in highways a river of the harmony wealth un- of
and around the temple
a nation’s song and gladness had accumu
lated. In our day we have a division of
labor iu music, and we have ono man to
make the hymn, another man to make tlie
tune, and another man to play it on the piano
another muu to sing it. Not so in
Bible times. Miriam, tlie sister of Moses.

Uue> Gregory tho Charlemagne gave

the best musical genius ts throwing itself
on the altars of God! Handel and Mozart
nnd 'laeh nnd Durante nnd Wolf and
scores of other men and women have given
the best part of their genius to church
music. A truth in words Is not half so
mighty ns n truth in song. Luther’s ser
mons have been forgotten, but tho “Judg
ment Hymn” he composed is resounding
yet through all Christendom.
I congratulate the world and the church
on the advancement made in this art—the
Edinburgh- societies for tho improvement
ot music, tho Swiss singing societies, the
Exeter hall concerts, the triennial musical
convocation at Dusscldorf, Germany, nnd
Birmingham, England, the conservatories
of music at Munich nnd Lelpsic, the
Handel and Haydn and Harmonic nnd
Mozart societies of this country, the
academies of music in Now York, Brooklyn,
Boston. Charleston, New Orleans, Chicago
and every city which has any enterprise.
Now, my friends, how are iv# to decide
what is appropriate, especially for church
music ? There may be a great many differ
ences of opinion. In some of the churches
they prefer a trained choir; In others, the
old style precentor. In some places they
prefer the melodeon, the harp, the cornet,
the organ. In other places they think these
things are the invention of the devil. Some
would have a musical instrument played
so loud you cannot stand it, and others
would have it played so soft you cannot
hear it. Some think a musical instrument
ought to be played only in the interstices
of worship ami then with indescribable
softness, while others are not satisfied un
less there be startling contrasts and stac
cato passages tiiat make the audience jump,
with great eyes and hair on end, as from a
vision of the witch of Endor. But, while
thoro may be great varieties of opinion in
regard to music, it seems to me that the
general spirit of the Word of God indicates
what ought to be the great characteristics
of church mus(c.
And I remark, in tho first place, a
prominent characteristic ought to
adaptiveness be appropriate to devotion. for Music liali, that'inay the
a concert or
opera bouse, or the church. drawing'room, may be
ballads inappropriate in Glees, madrigals,
may be as innocent as psalms in
their places. But church music has only
one design, and that is devotion, nnd that
which comes with the toss, the swing and
the display of an opera house is a hin
drance to the worship. From such per
formances we go away saying: “What
splendid execution! Did you ever hear
such a soprano? Which of those solos did
you like the better?” When, if we had
been rightlv wrought upon, we would have
gone away saying: “Oh, how my soul was
lifted up in the presence of God while they
were singing that first hymu! I never had
such rapturous views of Josus Christ as
my Saviour ns when they were singing
that last doxology.”
I remark also that correctness ought to
be a characteristic of shureh music. While
wc all ought to take part In this service,
with perhaps a few exceptions, we ought
at the same time to cultivate ourselves in
this sacred art. God loves harmony, and
we ought to love it. There is no devotion
in a howl or a yelp. In this day, when
there are so many opportunities of high
culture in this art, I declare that those
parents are guilty of neglect who let their
sons and daughters grow up knowing
nothing about music. In some of the Eu
ropean cathedrals the choir assemble
every morning and afternoon of every day
the whole year to perfect themseives in
this art, and shall we begrudge the half
hour we spend Friday nights in the re
hearsal of sacred gong for the Sabbath?
Another characteristic must be spirit
and life. Music ought to rush from the
audience like the water from a rock—clear,
bright, sparkling. If all the other part of
the church service is dull, do not have the
music dull. With so many thrilling things
stfupidity. to sing about, away with all drawiing and
There is nothing that makes
me so nervous as to sit in a pulpit and
look off on an audience with their eyes
three-fourtlis closed and their Jips almost
shut, mumbling the praises of God. Dur
iug one of my journeys I preached to an
audience of 2000 or 3000 people, and all the
music they made together did not equal
ono skylark! People do not sleep at a cor
onation, ao not let us sleep when we come
to a Saviour’s crowning.
Again, I remark church music must be
congregational. This opportunity must
be brought down within the range of the
whole audience. A song that the wor
shipers cannot sing is of no more use to
them than n sermon in Choctaw. What an
easy kind of church it must be where the
minister does all the preaching, and the
ciders all the praying, and the choir all
the singing! There are but very few
churches where there are “two hundred
and forty and five singing men nndsingiag
womon.”
In some churches it is almost considered
a disturbance if a man lot out his voice to
full compass, and tho people get up ou tip
toe and look over between the spring hats
and wonder what that man is making all
that noise about. In Syracuse in a Presby
terian church there was one member who
came to me when I was the pastor of an
other church in that city, and told me his
troubie—how that ns lie persisted in sing
ing on the Sabbath day a committee, made
up of the session and tho choir, had come
to ask him if he would not just please to
keep still! You have no right to sing.

days for singing. Let us wake up to this

BEETLES AS UNDERTAKERS.
When They Find a Dead Animal It Is Bur
ied for Future Use.
People often wonder what becomes
of the dead mice and dead birds, for,
though birds and mice are constantly
dying in large numbers, hardly one is
ever to be seen. The fact is that they
are burled by beetles, according to Our
Animal Friends. Buchner gives a brief
account of them as follows.
‘‘Several of them unite together to
bury under the ground, as food and
shelter for their young, some dead ani
mal. such as a mouse, a toad, a mole, a
bird, etc. The burial is performed be
cause the corpse, if left above ground,
would either dry up or grow rotten, or
be eaten by other animals. In all these
cases the young would perish, whereas
the dead body lying in the earth and
withdrawn from the otcr air lasts very
well. The burying beetles go to work
in a very well-considered fashion, for
they scrape away the earth lying under
the body, so that it sinks itself deeper
nnd deeper. When it is deep enough
down it is covered over from above.
If the situation is stony the beetles,
with united forces and great efforts,
<1 * ra ? the corpse to some place more
suitable for burying. They work so
diligently that a mouse, for instance,
is buried within three hours. But they
often work on for days, so as to bury
the body as deeply as possible. From
large carcasses, such as those of
horses, sheep, etc., they only bury
pieces as largo as they can manage.”
There can be no doubt of the intelli
gence of these strange insects, as a
gentleman discovered in a rather curi
ous way. eH desired to dry a dead

An Iowa Woman’s Convincing Statement,
“I tried three doctors, and the last
one said nothing but an operation
would help me. My trouble was pro
fuse flowing; sometimes I would think
I would flow to death. I was so weak
that the least work would tire me.
Reading of so many being cured by
your medicine, I made np my mind to
write to you for advice, nnd I am so
glad that I did. I took Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound and Liver
Pills and followed your directions, and
am now well and strong. I shall recom
mend your medicine to all, for it saved
my life.”—Miss A. P., Box 21 Abbott,
