Washington, I). C.—This discourse of
Pr. Tulmage will interest young men, while
it is full of advice and encouragementato
parents who are trying to bring up their
children aright; text, Proverbs x., 1, “A
wise son inarketb (i glad father, but a fool
ish son is the heaviness of his mother."
In this graphic way good Solomon sets forth
the idea that the or evil behavior of
children blesses or blights tlie parental
heart. I know there are persons who seoui
to have no children. especial iutorest in the welfare
of their The father says: “My
boy must take the risks I took in life, if
lie turns out well, all right. If lie turns
out ill, lie will have to bear,the conse
quences. He has the same clianoo that I
had. He must take care of himself.” A
shepherd might ju3t as well thrust u lamb
into a den of Hons and any, “Little lamb,
take care or yourse!r.’’ brute
Nearly all the creation are kind
enough to look alter their young. I was
going through a woods, and I heard a
shrill cry In a nest. I climbed up to the
bird’s nest, and I found that the old
bird had left the brood to starve. But that
is a very rare occurrence. Generally n bird
will pick your eyes out rather than aurren
-der her young to your keeping or your
touch. A lion will rend you if you come
too near the whelps. Even the burnynrd

Christ comes ,, through , all , our households , , ,
to-day, and He says: “You take care of
the bodies of vour cliildieu aud the mluds
of your children. Wlmt 1 are read you doing for
tbeir immortal souls' 1 ” of a ship
that fouudered. A life-boat was launched.
Many of the passengers were iu the waters.
A mother, with one hand beating tbe wave
and the other baud holding her little child
out toward the lifeboat, cried out, “Save
my child!” And that impassioned cry is
tbe one that liuds an echo in overy paren
tal heart in this land to-day. "Save my
child!” That man out tliore says: “I have
fought my own way through life, I have got
along tolerably well, the world lias buffeted
me, and I have h id many a bard struggle.
It don’t make much difference what hap
pens to me, but save my child!” You see
I have a subject of stupendous import, and
I am going, as God may help mo, to show
the cause of parental solicitude aud then
the alleviations of that solicitude.
The ilrst cause of parental solicitude, I
think, arises from the imperfection of
parents on their own purt. We all some
now want our children to avoid our faults,
We hope that if we have any excellences
they will copy them. But the probability
is they will copy our faults and omit our
excellences. Children arc very apt to be
echoes of the parental life. Some one
meets a lad In the back street, liuds him
smoking and says: “Why, lam astonished
at youl What would your father say if he
knew this? Where did you get that cigar?”
“Oh, I picked it up on the street.” “What
would your father say and your mother say
if they knew this?” “Oh,” he replies,“thut’s
nothing. My father smokes!” There is
not one ot us to-day who would like to
have our children copy all our examples.
Aud that is ,.the cause of the solicitude on
the part of all of us. We have so many
faults we do not want them copied and
stereotyped in the lives and characters ol
those who come after us.
The solicitude arises from our conscious
insufficiency and unwisdom of discipline.
Out of twenty parents there may be one
parent who understands how thoroughly
and skillfully to discipline; perhaps not
more than one out of twenty. We, nearly
all of us, err on one side or on .the other.
Here is a father who says, “I am going to
bring up ray children right; my sons shall
know nothing but religion; shall seenoth
iug but religion, and hear nothing but re
ligion.” They are routed out at 6 o’clock
in the morning to recite the Tten Com
mandments. They are awakened up from
the sofa on Sunday night to recite the
Westminster Catechism. Their bedroom
walls are covered with religious pictures
and quotations of Scripture, and when the
boy looks for the day of the month he
loots for it In a religious almanac. If a
minister comes to tlio house, lie is re
quested to take the boy aside and tell him
what a great sinner he Is. It is religion
morning, noon and night.
Time passes on, and the parents are wait
ing for the return of the son nt night. It
is 9 o’clock, it is 10 o’loek, it is 11 o’clock,
it is 12 o’clock, it is half-past 12 o’clock.
Then they hear a rattling of the night key,
and George comes in and hastens upstairs
lest be be accosted. His father says,
“Georgo, where have you been?” He says,
“I have been out.” Yes, be has been started out,
and be has been down, and be has
on the broadroad to ruin for this life and
ruin for the life to come, and the father
says to his wife, “Mother, the Ten Com
mandments are a failure; no use of West
minster Catechism; I huve done my very
best for that boy; just see how be has
turned out.” Ah, my friend, you stuffed
that boy with religion; you hud no sym
pathey with innocent hilarities; you had
no common sense. A man at midlife said
to me, “I haven’t much desire for religion;
my father was as good a man as ever lived,
but be jammed religion down my throat
when I was a boy until I got disgusted
with it, and I haven’t wanted any of It
since.” That father erred on one side.
Then the discipline is an entire failure
in many households because the father
pulls one way and the mother nulls the
other way. The father says, “My son, I
told you if lever found you guilty aud of false- I
hood again I would chastise you, am
going to keep my . promise.” The mother
says: “Don’t! Let him off this time.”
A father says. “I have seen so mauy that
make mistake by too great severity in the
rearing of their children. Now, I wilt let
my boy do as be pleases. He shall have
full swing. Here, my son, are tickets to
the theatre and opera. If you want to play
cards, do so; If you t don’t want to play Go
cards, you need not to play back them. when
when you want and come you
want to. Have a good time. Go it!” Give
a boy plenty of money aud ask him not
what he does with it, and you pay his way
straight to perdition. But after awhile
the la.d thinks be ought to have a still
larger supply. He has been treated, and
he must treat. He must have wine sup
pers. There are larger and larger ex
penses. from
Afteir awhile one day a messenger in and
the bank over tbe way calls says to
the father of the household of which I am
speakjng, “The officers of the bank would
like to have you step over a minute.” The
father steps over, and the bank officer
says, i“Is that your check?” "No,” lie
says; |‘tkat is not my check, I never made
an‘H’in that way; I never put a curl to
the •%’ in that wav: That is not my
writing. counterfeit. That is hot "ray signature. the police.” That

“Stopi.” says the bank officer. ‘Gfour sou
wrote, that.” waiting
Now the father and mother are
for the son to ccme home at night. It is
12 o’clock, it is half-past 12 o’clock, it is 1
o’clock. The son comes through the hall
way. ' The father says: “My son, what
does nill this mean? I gave you every op
portunity. I gave you all the money you
wanted, and here in my old dnys I find that
you have become a spendthrift, a libertine
and a sot.” The son says: “Now, father,
what Is the use of your talking that way?
You told me to go it, and 1 just took vour
suggestion.” And so to strike the medium
betwean severity aud too great leniency,
to strike the happy medium between the
two and train ©ur childreu for God and
tor heaven, (s the anxiety for ovory .intel
ligent parent.
But for the most part the ohildren that
live sometime.-* get cross and plot up bad
words iu the street or are disposed to quar
r«l with brother or sister and show chat
they are wicked. You see them In the gab
bath-school class. They •are so sunshiny
and bright you would think they were al
ways bo, but the mother looking over at
them remembers what an awful time she
had to get them ready. Time passes on.
They get considerably older, aud t lie sou
comes In from the street from a pugilistic
encounter bearing on his appearance the
mark3 of defeat, or the daughter practices
some little deception In the household.
The mother says, “I can’t always be scold
ing and fretting nud lluding fault, but tills
must ho stopped.” go la many a house
hold there is the sign of sin, the sign of the
truthfulness of what the Bible says when
It declares, “They go astray us soon as
they be born, speaking lies.” "
Some go to work and try fto correct all
this, and the boy Is picked at and picked
at and picked at. That always is ruinous.
There is more help in one good thunder
storm than In live days of cold drizzle.
Bettor the old fashioned style of‘chastise
ment, if that bo neoossary, than the fret
ting and the scolding which have de
stroyed so many.
There is also a cause of great solicitude
sometimes because our young people are
surrouuded by so many temptations. A
castle may not bo taken by a straightfor
ward siege, but suppose there bo inside the
eastle an enemy, and in the night he
shoves back the bolt and swings open the
door. Our young folks have roes without,
and they have foes within. Who does not
understand it? Who is the man hero who
is not aware of tlie fact that the youug
people of this day have tremendous temp
tations?
Do yov ‘ s,) PP°se that a man who went dear
to the depths plunge? of dissipation Oh.no! went down in
one great At ilrst it was
a I'ushionuhle hotel. Marble floor. No uu
clean pictures behind the counter. No
druuken hiccough while they drluk, but
the click of cut glass to the elegant seutl
ment. You ask that young man now to go
into some low restaurant and get u drink,
nud lie would say, "Do you moan to insult
me?” But the fashionable and the elegant
hotel is not always close by, and now the
young man is on tbe down grade. Farther
and farther down until lie ini9 about struck
the bottom of tbe depths of ruin. Now he
is in the low restaurant. The cards ss
greasy you can hardly tell who has the
best hand. Gambling lor landlord drinks. Shuffle
away, shuffle away- The stands
in liis short sleeves, with his hands on his
hips, waiting for an order to fillup the
glasses.
The clock strikes twelvo—the tolling of
the funeral bell of a soul. The breath of
eternal woe flushes in that youug man’s
cheeks. In tbe jets of the gaslight the
fiery tonguo of tlie worm that never dies.
Two o’clock in the morning, undjsuow they
ure sound asleep in^ their chairs. Land
lord comes around and says "Wake up,
wake up! Time to shut “Time up!” shut “What!”
says the young man. to up?”
Push them all out into the night air. Now
they are going home. Going home! Let
the wife crouch iu the corner uud the chil
dren hide under the bed. What wlis the
history of that young man? He began his
dissipations in the barroom of a Fifth ave
nue hotel and completed his damnation in
the lowest grogshop.
Sometimes sin does not halt in that way.
Sometimes sin even comes to tbe drawing
room. There are leprous hearts some
times admitted in the highest circles of
society. He is so elegant, he is so bewitch
ing in his rnauner, he is so rellned, he is so
educated, no one suspects the sinful de
sign, but after a while the talous of death
come forth. What is the matter with that
house? The front windows have not been
open ior six mouths or a year. A shadow
has come down on that domestic hearth, a
shadow thicker than one woven of mid
night and hurricane. The agony of that
parent makes him say, “Oh, I wish I hud
buried my children when they were smalll”
Los3 ot property? No. Death in the
lain, family? kid No. gloved Madness? aud diamonded, No. Some lifted yll
that cup of domestic bliss until the sun
light struck it, and all' the rainbows
played around tbe rim and then dashed it
Iff 1 daBcne 3 s'°chippLr°thidr* uttered hands loud anTall “Ha,
the voices ot the pit a
ha!”
The statistic has never been made up in
these great cities of bow many have been
destroyed and how many beautiful homes
have been overthrown. It the statistic
could be presented, it would freeze your
blood in a solid cake at your beurt. Our
great cities are full of temptations, and to
vast multitudes of parents these tempta
tions become a matter of great solicitude.
Begin early with your children. You
stand on the banks of a river and you try
to change its course. It inis been rolling
now for 100 miles. • You cannot chunge it.
But just go to the source of that river, go
to where the water just drips down on the
rock. Then with your knife make n chan
nel this way and a channel that way. and
it will take it. Come out and stand on the
banks ot your oblld’s life when it is thirty
or forty years of age, or even twenty, and
try to change the course of that life.
It is too Intel It is too late! Go fur
ther up at the source of lire and near
est to the mother’s heart, where the
character starts, find try to take It in
the right direction. But, oh, my friend,
be careful to make a line, a distinct
line between innocent hilarity on the one
hand and vicious hilarity on the other. Do
not think your children are going to ruin
because they make a racket. All healthy
childreu make a racket, But do not laugh
at your child’s sin because it is smart. If
you do, you will cry after awhile because
it is malicious. Kemember it is what you
do mo.re than what you say that is going
to affect your children. Do you suppose
Noah would have got his family to go into
the ark if lie staid out? No. His sons
would have said, “I am not going into the
boat; there’s something wrong; father
won’t go iu; if father stays out, I’ll stay
out.”
Are ail your children safe? I know it is a
stupendous question to ask, but I must
ask it. Are- all your children safe? A
mother, when the house was on Are, got
out the household goods, many articles of
beautiful furniture, but forgot to ask till
too late, “Are the children snfe?” When
the elements are melting with fervent heat
and God shall burn the world up and the
cry ot “Fire! Fire!” shall resound amid
the mountains and the valleys, will your
children be safe? chord In
I wonder if U)e subject strikes had a Christian
the heart of any man who
parentage, but has not livod as be ought?
God brought you here this morning to
have your memory revived. Did you have
a Christian ancestry? “Oh, yes!” good says one
man. “If there ever was a woman,
my mother was good.” How she watched
you when you were sickl Others wearied.
If she got weary, she nevertheless was
wakeful, and the medicine was given at the
right time, und when the pillow was hot
she turned ft. And,, oh, then, when yon
began to go astray, what u grief it was to
her heart!
Ail tbe scene comes back. Yon remem
ber tbe cbnirs, you remember the table,
you remember the doorsiil where you
played, you remember the toues of her
voice. She seems calling you now, not by
the formal title with which we address you,
saying, “Mr.” this or “Mr.” that, or "Hon
orable” this or “Honorable” that. It is
just the ilrst name, your first name, she
calls you by this morning. She bids you to a
better life. She says: “Forget not all the
counsel I gave you, my wandering boy.
Turn into paths of righteousness. I am
waiting for you at the gate.” Oh, yes, God
brought you here this morning to have
tbat memory revived, and I shout upward
the tidings. Angels of God send forward
the news. Bingl King! The dead is uiive
again, aud the lost is found!

Famous Old Convict Ship.
One of the curiosities in England n;
present Is the old Convict ship Success,
which lias recently been converted Into
a museum, or Into what a foreign Jour
nnllst styles “a. chamber of horrors.”
it was built 110 years ogo, and its first
years were spent in cruising between
the East Indies and England. In 1829
the British Admiralty bought and sta
tioned it in the waters of Westerji
Australia. Captain Stirling was then
in command, and from his Scottish
birthplace the town of Perth in Aus
tralia takes its name. From 1847 to
18.11 the Success plied between I.on
don and Port Adelaide. The Success
was next used to transport criminals
of the deepest dye to Van Diemen’s
Land, ns Tasmania was then called,
arid it also served as a floating* prison
for especially dangerous criminals. Old
records show that some awful scenes
took place on it. The prisoners’ cells
were in two tiers under the deck and
were so small that the inmattes could
hardly move iu them. Moreover, they
were so fashioned that they could be
made light or dark, and the most in
subordinate prisoners were always
placed in the latter. These curious
cells, many of the old Instruments of
torture, aud a number of wax figures,
representing famous criminals, arc
now being exhibited on the Success,
and are attracting a crowd of sight
seers. The old ship Is at present in
Leith harbor, in Scotland.
Strange Predicament of a Bird.
A writer in Bird Lore says: “Several
years ago, when In a Western town, 1
was taken to a neighbor’s to see his
birds. Four cages swung in the sheltei
of a commodious porch. One contained
a red-winged blackbird that had been
taken from its nest when very young
and brought up by hand. Hip associ
ates were a canary, a bluejay and an
oriole. The canary had been pur
chased at a bird store, aud had been
taken from neighboring nests, and had,
no doubt, picked up the characteristic
notes of their species from the many
other members of their kind that in
hibited the vicinity, but it was many
miles to th g nearest swamp or lowland
where one might find a red-winged
blackbird. The red-wing had learned
perfectly the notes of his caged com
panions, and had picked up some notes
of other birds in the neighborhood, but
not one note of the red-winged black
bird did he know.”
