Washington, April 16.—1 n his sermon
t Dr. Talmage lodges a protest, against
• parental heodleesness ami worldly am
bition which are threatening the sacrifice
of many American children; text, Judges
xi, 30, "My father, If thou hast opened
thy mouth unto the Lord, do to me accord
ing to that which hath proceeded out of
thy mouth. ”
Jephthah was a freebooter. Early turned
nut from a home where he ought to have
been eared for, ho consorted with rough
men and went, forth to earn his living as
best he could. In those times it was con
sidered right for a man to go out on inde
pendent military expeditions. Jephthah
was a good man according to the light of
his dark age, but through a wandering
and predatory life ho became reckless and
precipitate. The grace of God changes a
man’s heart, but never i - his nat
ural temperament. The Israelites wanted
the Ammonites driven out of their coun
try, so they sent a delegation to Jephthah,
asking him to become commander in chief
of all the forces. lie might have said,
■ You drove mo out when you had no use.
fur me and, now you are in trouble, you
wunt me back,” but he did not say that,
lie takes command of the army, sends
messengers to the Ammonites to tell them
to vacate the country and, getting no fa
vorable response, marshals his troops for
battle.
Before going out to the war Jephthah
makes a very solemn vow that if the Lord
will give him the victory, then, on his re
turn home, whatsoever first comes out of
his doorway he will offer in sacrifice as a
burnt offering The battle opens. It was
no skirmishing on the edges of danger, no
unlimbering of batteries two miles away,
but the hurling of men on the points of
swords and spears until the ground could
no more drink the blood, and the horses
reared to leap over the pile of bodies of the
slain. In those old times opposing forces
would fight until their swords were bro
ken, and then each one would throttle his
man until they both fell, teeth to teeth,
grip to grip, death stare to death stare,
until the plain was one tumbled mass of
corpses from which tlie last trace of man
hood had been dashed out.
.leplitlinli’a Daughter.
Jephthah wins the day. Twenty cities
lay capt ured at his feet. Sound the vic-,
Tory all through the mountains of Gilead.
Let the trumpeters call up the survivors.
Homeward to your wives and children.
Homeward with your glittering treasures.
Homeward to have the applause of an ad
miring nation. Build triumphal arches,
swing out Hags all over Mizpah, open all
your doors to receive the captured treas
ures, through every hall spread the ban
quet, pile up the viands, fill high the
tankards. The nation is redeemed, the
invaders are routed and the national honor
is vindicated.
Huzza for Jephthah. the conqueror!
Jephthah, seated on a prancing steed, ad
vances amid the acclaiming multitudes,
but his eye is not on the excited populace.
Remembering that he had made a solemn
vow that, returning from victorious bat
tle. whatsoever first came out of tlie door
way of his home, that should bo sacrificed
as a burnt offering, ho has his anxious
! <.k upon the door. I wonder what spot
less lamb, what brace of doves will be
thrown upon the fires of the burnt offer
ing.
oh. horrors! Paleness of death blanches
his cheek. Despair seizes his heart. His
daughter, his only child, rushes out the
doorway to throw herself in her father's
arms and shower upon him more kisses
than there were wounds on his breast or
dents on his shield. All the triumphal
splendor vanishes. Holding back this child
from his heaving breast and pushing the
locks back from the fair brow and looking
into the eyes of inextinguishable affection
with choked utterance he says: "Would
God I lay stark on the bloody plain. My
daughter, my only child, joy of my home,
life of my life, thou art the sacrifice!”
The whole matter was explained to her.
This was no whining, hollow hearted girl
into whose eyes the father looked. All the
glory of sword and shield vanished in the
presence of the valor of that girl. There
may have lieen a tremor of the lip, as a
rijseJeaf trembles in the sough of the south
wind; there may have been tho starting
of a tear like a rain drop shaken from the
anther of n water lily. But with a self
sacrifice that man may not reach and only
woman’s heart, can compass she surrenders
herself to fire and to death. She cries out
in the words of my text, "My father, if
thou hast opened thy mouth unto the Lord
do unto me whatsoever hath proceeded
from thy mouth.”
Innocence Sacrificed.
She bows to the knife, and the blood,
which so often at the father’s voice had
rushed to the crimson cheek, smokes in
the fires of the burnt offering. No one
can tell us her name. There is no need
that we know her name. The garlands
that Mizpah twisted for Jephthah, the war
rior, have gone into the dust, but all ages
are twisting this girl's chaplet. It is well
that her name came not to us, for no one
can wear it. They may take the name of
Deborah or Abigail or Miriam, but no one
in all the ages shall have the title of this
daughter of sacrifico.
Os course this offering was not pleasing
•" the Lord, especially as a provision was
imide in the law for such a contingency,
and Jephthah ipight have redeemed his
■laughter by the payment of 30 shekels of
rilver, but liefore you hurl your denuncia-
L ti- at Jephthah s cruelty remember that
111 olden times when vows were made
1 'ti thought they must execute them, per
-ITm ihem, whether they were wicked or
k"od. There were two wrong things
ll »ut Jephthah’s vow. First, he ought
never to have made it. Next, having
niade it, it were better broken than kept,
but d.. Ilo t take on pretentious airsand

'"'w I make very practical use of this
ion w hen I tell you that the sacrifice
i'hthah’s daughter was a type of the
'■al. mental and spiritual sacrifice of
children in tills day. There are

While I sp( o. the whole nation, without,
emotion and without shame, looks upon
the st .tpendous rifle...
< hi Id i-.-n <> vert n xed.
In the first place I remark that much
of the system of education in our day is a
I system of aaerifi.-e. When children spend
| six or seven hours in school and then must
spend two or three hours in preparation
for school the next day. will you tell me
how much time they will have for sun
shine atid fresh air and the obtaining of
that exuberance which is necessary for the
duties of coming life? No one can feel
more thankful than I do fi r the advance
ment of common school education. The
printing of books appropriate for schools,
the multiplication of philosophical ap
paratus, the establishment of normal
schools, which provide for our children
teachers of largest caliber, are themes on
which every philanthropist ought to be
congratulated. But this herding of great
multitudes of children in ill ventilated
schoolrooms and poorly equipped halls of
instruction is making many of the places
of knowledge in this country a huge holo
caust. Politics in many of the cities gets
into educational affairs, and while the two
political parties are scrabbling for the
honors Jephthah’s daughter perishes. It
is so much so that there are many schools
in the country today which are preparing
tens of thousands of invalid men and wo
men for the future; so that, in many
places, by the time the child’s education
is finished the child is finished! In many
places, in many cities of the country,
there are large appropriations for every
thing else, and cheerful appropriations, but
as soon as the appropriation is to be made
for the educational or moral interests of
the city we are struck through with an
economy that is well nigh the death of us.
In connection with this I mention what
I might call the cramming system of tho
common schools and many of tho acad
emies; children of delicate brain compelled
to tasks that might appall a mature intel
lect; children going down to school with
a strap of books half as high as themselves.
The fact is in some of the cities parents do
not allow their children to graduate for
the simple reason, they say, ”We cannot
afford to allow our children s health to lie
destroyed in order that they may gather
the honors of an institution.” Tens of
thousands of children educated into imbe
cility, so that connected with many such
literary establishments there ought to be
asylums for the wrecked. It is push and
crowd and cram and stuff and jam until
the child's intellect is bewildered, and tho
memory is ruined, and the health is gone.
There are children who once were full of
romping and laughter and had cheeks
crimson with health who are now’ turned
out in the afternoon pale faced, irritated,
asthmatic, old before their time. It is
one of the saddest sights on earth, an old
mannish boy or an old womanish girl.
Girls 10 years of ago studying algebra!
Boys 12 years of age racking their brain
over trigonometry' Children unacquaint
ed with their mother tongue crying over
their Latin, French and German lessons!
All the vivacity of their nature Ixiaten out
of them by the heavy beetle of a Greek
lexicon! And you doctor them for this,
and you give them a little medicine for
that, and you wonder what is the matter
of them. I will tell you what is the mat
ter of them. They are finishing their ed
ucation !
Body and Brain Weakened.
In my parish in Philadelphia a little
child was so pushed at school that she was
thrown into a fever, and in her dying de
lirium all night long she was trying to re
cite the multiplication table. In my boy
hood I remember that in our class at school
there was one lad who knew more than all
of us put together. If we were fast in our
arithmetic, lie extricated us. When we
stood up for the spelling class, ho was al
most always the head of the class. Visit
ors came to his father’s house, and ho was
always brought in as a prodigy. At 18
years of age he was an idiot. He lived ten
years an idiot and died an idiot, not know
ing his right hand from his left or day’
from night. The parentsand thoteachers
made, him an idiot.
You may flatter your pride by forcing
your child to know more than any other
children, but you arc making a sacrifice
of that child if by the additions to its in
telligence you are making a subtraction
from its future. The child will go away
from such maltreatment with no exuber
ance t i fight the battle of life. Such chil
dren i: y get along very well while you
take care of them, but when you are old
or dead alas for them if, through the
wrong system of education which you
adopted, they’ have no swarthiness or force
of character th take care of themselves.
Be careful how you make the child’s head
ache or its heart flutter. I hear a great
deal about black man's rights, and China
man’s rights, and Indian’s rights, and
woman’s rights. Would God that some
body would rise to plead for children’s
rights. The Carthaginians used to sacri
fice their children by putting them into
the arms of an idol which thrust forth its
hand. The child was put into the arms of
tho idol and no sooner touched the arms
than it dropped into the fire. But it was
the art of (be mothers to keep the children
smiling and laughing until the moment
they died. There may be a fascination
ami a hilarity about the styles of educa
tion of which I am speaking, but it is only
laughter at the moment of sacrifice.
Would God there were only one J ephthah a
daughter
Discipline of the Young.
Again, there are many parents who are
sacrificing their children with wrong sys
tem of discipline—too great rigor or too
great leniency. There are children in
families who rule tho household. The
high chair in which the infant sits is the
throne, and the rattle is tho scepter, and
the other children make up the parliament
where father and mother have no vote!
Such children come up to bo miscreants.
There is no chance in this world for a
child that has never learned to mini.
Such people become the botheration of the
church of God and the pest of the w orld.
Children that do not learn to obey human
authority are unwilling to learn to obey
divine authority. Children will not re
spect parents whose authority they do not
respect. Who are these young men that
swagger through the street with their
thumbs in their vest talking about their
father as "the old man,” the governor
“the squire,” “the old chap,” or their
mother as "the old woman!-" They are
those who in youth, in childhood, never
learned to respect authority. F.li, having
heard that his sons had died in their
wickedness, fell over backward and broke
his neck and died. Weil he might. What
is life to a father whose sons are de
bauched? The dust of tho valley is pleas
ant to his taste, and the driving rains that
drip through the roof of the sepulcher are
sweeter than the winos of Helbon.
There must be harmony between the fa
ther’s government and the mother's gov
ernment. The father w ill bo tent pted to
too great rigor. The mother will l>e
tempted to t>igreat leniency. Her tender
ness will overcome her Her voice is a lit-

hour. If the el. d triumphs in that hour,
then he will some day make you crouch.
It is a horrible scene. I hate w itne-sed it.

But, on (!*■ oth< r hand, too great rigor
must, be avoided. It is a sad tiling when
domestic government becomes cold mili
tary despotism. 1 rapiH-rs on the prairie
fight, fire with lire, but y -u cannot sue
cessfully fight your child's bad temper
with your own bad temper. We must not
be too minute in our inspection. We can
not expect our children to be perfect. We
must imt see everything. Since we have
two or three faults of our own. we ought
not to be too rough when we discover t hat
our children have as many. If tradition
be true, when we were children we were
not all little Samuels and our parents were
not fearful lest tiny could not raise us be
cause of our premature goodness. You
cannot scold or pound your children into
nobility of character. The bloom of a
child's heart can never be seen' under a
cold drizzle. Above all, avoid fretting and
scolding in the household. Better than
ten years of fretting at. your children is
one good, round, old fashioned application
of the slipper! That minister of the gos
pel of whom we read in the newspapers
that he whipped his child to death because
he would not say his prayers will never
come to canonization. Ihe arithmetics
cannot calculate how many thousands of
children have been ruined forever either
through too great rigor or too great lenien
cy. The heavens and the earth are tilled
with’tho groan of the sacrificed. In this
important matter seek divine direction. ()

Some one asked the mother of Lord
Chief Justice Mansfield if she was not
proud to have three such eminent sons and
all of them so good. "No,” she said, "it
is nothing to co proud of, but something
for which to b-3 very grateful.”
Again, there are many who are sacrific
ing their children to a spirit of worldli
ness. Some one asked a mother whoso
children had turned out very well what
was the secret by which she prepared them
for usefulness and for the Christian life,
and she said : " This was the secret When
in the morning I washed my children, I
prayed that they might be washed in the
fountain of a Faviour's mercy. When I
put on their garments, I prayed that they
might be arrayed in the robe of a Saviour's
righteousness. When I. gave them food, I
prayed that they might bo fed with manna
from heaven. When I started them on
the road to school, I prayed that their path
might bo as the shining light, brighter
and brighter to the perfect (lay. When I

"Oh.” you say, "that was very old fash
ioned.” It was quite old fashioned. But
do you suppose that a child under such
nurture as that ever turned out bad?
In our day most boys start out with no
idea higher than the al) encompassing dol
lar, They start in an ago which boasts it
can scratch the Lord's Prayer on a 10 cent
piece and the Ten Commandments on a 10
cent piece. Children are taught to reduce
morals and religion, time and eternity, to
vulgar fractions. It. seems to be their
chief attainment that 10 cents make a
dime and ten dimes make a dollar. How
to get money is only equaled by the other
art, how to keep it. Tell me, ye who
know, what chance there is for those who
start out in life with such perverted senti
ments.
The money market resounds again and
again with the downfall of such people.
If I had a drop of blood on the tip of a
pen, I would tell you by what awful trag
edy many of the youth of this country are
ruined.
Fashion h Hollowness.
Further on thousands and tens of thou
sands of tho daughters of America are sac
rificed to worldliness. They are taught to
be in sympathy with all the artificialties
of society. They are inducted into all the
hollowness of what is called fashionable
life. They are taught to believe that his
tory is dry. but that .’>o cent stories of ad
venturous love are delicious With ca
pacity that might; have rivaled a Florence
Nightingale in heavenly ministries or
made tho father’s house glad with lilial
and sisterly demeanor their life isa waste,
their beauty a curse, their eternity a dem

In the siege of Charleston, during our
civil war, a lieutenant, of the army stood
on the floor beside the daughter of the ex
governor of the state of South Carolina
They were taking the vows of marriage.
A bombshell struck the roof, dropped into
the group, and nine were wounded and
slain, among the wounded to death the
bride. While the bridegroom knelt on the
carpet trying to stanch tho wounds the
bride demanded that thecercmony be. com
pleted that she might take the vows I .
fore her departure, and when the minister
said, "Wilt thou lie faithful unto death,
with her dying lips she said, ‘ I will.”
and in two hours sin- had departed. That
was the slaughter and the sai rifle, of the
body, but at thousands of marriage altars
there are daughter-: slain for time and
slain for eternity. It is not a marriage

ENEMIES OF RATTLERS.
HoU*! and Black Snnken Kill the \en
omoun JicptilcM With Imp unity.
The two greatest enemies of the rat
tlesnake are the black snake and tho
hog. The rattlesnake is slow and slug I
gish in movement, while the black snake |
is intensely’ rapid. The latter will cir- j
cle around his foe and with a sudden
dart grasp the venomous reptile by the
neck, so that it has no chance to use
its poisonous fangs, and quickly squeeze
it to death. A hog, especially if fat,
suffers no danger from the rattlesnake.
Ho will march boldly up to the coiled
reptile, allow himself to be struck in
his jowls once, twice or three times, as
the case may 1»‘, and will then calmly
proceed to sw’allow the reptile without
concern. The reason for the hog’s im
munity is due to the fact that the blood
vessels are so minute and infrequent on
his cheeks, where fat is predominant,
that they fail to take up the poison and
carry it through the porcine system, j
Hogs have been used in droves to clear
some of the islands of the southern seas
of poisonous reptiles and have proved
successful.
By remembering two simple facts any
one can distinguish a poisonsous serpent
from a harmless one. The venomous
reptile invariably possesses a triangular
ly shaped head and a blunt nose, while
his tail is correspondingly blunt and
stubby. Any snake that tapers smooth
ly from the middle of its body to the tip
of its nose and to the tip of its tail as :
well, growing slender in a gradual and
regular manner, is absolutely devoid of j
venom.—New York Press.
