LIFE’S BRIGHT SIDE. PR. TALMAGE BSEB SUNSHINE ON ENffRV CLOUD. God'x Sce«>taar Affliction. on Ue Are I.lM.cea For GooA—Grandcnr el Character la Aehleretl by Coa<«w In* Evil. . [Copyrtaht, im WASHINGTON, Dec. 4. —ln thia dteeouA Dr. Talmage takes an optimist io view of many things that an usually accounted as Inexplicable in human experience and shows us that even trouble and affliction may not be wholly, without their brighter side; text, JJsataa «!*, 4, "I will open my dttrk sg» Ing-upon the harp.” . The world Is full of the inexplicable, the impassable, the unfathomable, the insur mountable. We cannot go three steps In any direction without coming up against a hard wall of xaystery, riddles, paradoxes, profundities, labyrinths, problems that we cannot solve, hieroglyphics that we cannot decipher, anagrams we eannot spell out, sphinxes that will nob-speak. For that reason Da-rid in my text proposed to take up some of these somber and dark things and try to act them to sweet music. “J will open my dark sayings on sharp.” So I look off upon society and find people in unhappy conjunction of circumstances,' and they do not know what it means, and they have a right to ask: Why is thief Why is that? And I think I will be, doing a good work by trying to explain some of these strange things and make you more content with your lot, and I shall only.be answering questions that have often been asked mo or that we have all asked our selves while I try to set these mysteries to music and open my dark sayings on a harp. Why Are the Useful Taken f Interrogation the first: Why does God take out of this world those who are-use ful and whom we cannot spare and leave alive and in good health so many who are only a nuisance to the world? I thought I would begin with the very toughest of all the seeming inscrutables. Manyoftthe most useful men and women die at 8Q or 40 years of age, while you often find use lees people alive at 60 and 70 and 80. John Careless wrote to (Bradford, who wax soon to be put to death, saying, “Why doth God suffer me and such other caterpillars to live that can do nothing but consume the alms of the church and take away so many worthy workmen in the Lord's vineyard?” Similar questions are often asked. Here are two men. The one is a noble character and a Christian man. He chooses for a lifetime companion one who has been ten derly reared, and she is worthy of him and he is worthy of her. As merchant or farm er or professional man or mechanic or ar tist he toils to educate and rear his chil dren. He is succeeding, but he has not yet established for his family a full com petency.. He seems indispensable to that household, but one day, before he has paid off the mortgage on his house, he is com ing home strong northeast wind, and a chill strikes through him, and four days of pneumonia end his earthly career, and the wife and children go Into a strug gle lor shelter and food. His next dour neighbor is nman who, though strong and well, lets hlsiWife support him. He is around at the grapery store or some gen eral-loafing place in the evenings, while his wife sews. His boys are imitating his example and lounge and swagger and swear. All the use that man is in that house is to rave because the coffee is cold when he comes to a late breakfast or to say cutting things about his wife’s looks, when be furnishes nothing for her ward robe. The best thing that could happen to that family would be that man’s funeral, but be declines to die, He lives on and on and on. So we have all noticed that many of the useful are early cut off, while the parasites have great vital tenacity. I take up this dark saying on my harp and give three or four thrums on the string in the way of surmising and hopeful guess. Perhaps the useful man was token out of the world because be and his family were so constructed that they could not have endured some great prosperity that might have been just ahead, and they all together might have gone down in the vortex of worldliness which every year swallows up 10,000 households. And so he went while he was humble and conse crated, and they were by the severities of life kept close to Christ and fitted for use fulness here and high seats in beaVPn,and when they meet at last before the throne they will acknowledge that, though the furnace was hot, it purified them and pre pared them for an eternal career of glory and reward for which no other kind of life could have fitted them. On the other hand, the useless man lived on to 60 or 60 or 70 yean because ail ths ease he ever can have he must-have in this world, and you ought not therefore begrudge him his earthly longevity. In all the ages there has not a single loafer ever entered heaven. There is no place for him there to hang around. Not even la the temples, for they are full of vigorous, alert and raptur ous worship. If the good and useful go early, rejoice for them that they have so soon got through with human ttfa, which at best is a struggle. And if the useless and the bad stay rejoice that they may be out in the world's fresh air a good many yean before their final incarceration. * . Treaties of the Interrogation the second: Why do good people have so much trouble, sickness, bankruptcy, persecution, the three black vultures sometimes putting their fierce beaks into one set of jangled nerves? I think now of a good friend. I once had. He was a consecrated Christian man, an elder in the church, and as polished a Christian gentleman as ever walked Broadway. First his general health gave out, and be hobbled around on a cane, an old man at 40. After awhile paralysis struck him. Haring by poor health been compelled suddenly to quit business, he lost what property he had. Then his beau tiful daughter died; then a son became hopelessly demented. Another sou, splen did of mind and commanding of presence, resolved that he would take care of his fa ther's household, but under the swoop of yellow fever at Fernandina, Fla., be sud denly expired. So you know good men and women who have bad enough troubles, you think, to crush 60 people. No world ly philosophy could take such a trouble and set it to music or play it on violin or flute, but I dare to open that dark saying on a gospel harp. You wonder that very consecrated peo ple have trouble? Did you ever know any very consecrated man or woman who had not had great trouble? Noverl U was through their troubles sanctified that they were made very good. If you find any where In this city a man who has nowand always has had perfect health and never lost a child, and has always been popular, and never had business struggle or mis fortune, who is distinguished for good ness, puff your wire for a telegraph mes senger boy and send meword, and I will drop everything and go right away to lock at him. There never has been a man like that and never will be. Who are those ar rogant, self conceited creatures who mows aboutrntthout sympathy for others and wlurthink mors of niil Bernard dog. or an Alderney cow, or a Southdown sheep, or a Berkshire pig than of a man? They never had any trouble, or the trouble was never Luactified. Who are those men who listen with moist eye as you tell them at suffering, and who have a pathos in their tnloe, and a kindness in their manner, anfi M an alleviation for those gons j »nt ray? They are the men who have grad uated nt thg Royal Academy of Trouble, aid they have the diplctna written in wrin kles on their own countenances. My 1 my! What heartaches they had I What tears they hi«vs weptfc Wpnt injustice they have •uffemd I The mightiest influence for purification and salvation Is trouble. No diamond fit for a crown until it is cut. No wheat fit for bread till it is ground. There are only three things that can break off a charts—a hammer, • file or afire— and trouble is all; three of .them. The greatest writers, orators and reformers get much of their force frofo trouble. What gave to Washington Irving that exquisite tenderness, and pathos Which will make his books favorites While the English lan guage continues to be WTittan and spoken? An early heartbreak that Jm nevroonoe mentioned, and When, 80 years after the death of Matilda Hoffman, who was to have been bls bride, her father picked up s plece of embroidery and said, "That Isa piece tot poor Matilda's .workmanship,” Washington irring ssnk from hilarity in to silence and walked away. Out of that lifetime, grief the great author dipped his pen’s- mightiest re-onfomemeut. Calvin's "Institutes of Religion, ’’ than which a more wonderful u book. Was never Written by human-hand, vytaa.. begun by. tbe.au th or at 36 years of age because of the persecu tion by Frauds, king of France. Faraday •toiled fQr *liyiineou.«aalary of £BO a year and. candles. As every brick of the wall of Babytotowaa stamped with the letter N, standing for Nebuchadnezzar, so every part of the temple, of. Christian achleve -ment is stamped with toe letter T. stand ingfor trouble. AU Ia Fer Aka ffret. When in England a.mgn 1b honored with knii*bti>ood,.he is struck with titaflat of the sword. But those who. have come to knighthood in the kingdom of God were first struck, nov with the fiat of the sword, but with the keen edge ~ef the scimeter. To build his magnificence of character, Paul could not Aave sparod eno lash, one prison, one one poisonous viper from, the hand, onctahip wreck. What is trim eftadfvMuals is true of nations. The horrors ot tip American Revolution gave; this country thisride of the Mississippi river to todepradeuce, and the conflict between England, France gave the most of , this country west of the Mississippi to tte United States. I France owned it, but Napoleon, fearing that Eng land would take it, practically made a present to the United States, for he receiv ed only 116,000,000 for Louisiana, Mis souri, Arkansas, Kansas, Nebraska, lowa, Minnesota, Colorado, Dakota, Montana, Wyoming and the Indian Territory. Out of the fire of the American Revolution came this country east of, > the Mississippi, out of the European that west of the Mississippi river. j iThe British em pire rose to its present oisegtowering gran deur through gunpowder plot, smd Guy Fawkes* conspiracy, and Northampton in surrection, and Walter Raleigh’s behead ing, and Bacon’s bribery, and Cromwell’s dissolution of parliament, and the battles of Edge Hill, and the vicissitudes of cen turies. So the earth itself, before it could become an appropriate and beautiful resi dence for the human family, had, accord • ing to geology, to be washed by universal deluge and scorched and made incandes cent by universal fires, and pounded by sledge hammer of icebergs, and wrenched by earthquakes that split continents, and shaken by volcanoes that tossed mountains and passed through the catastrophes of thousands of years before Paradise became possible, and the groves could shake out their green banners, and the first garden pour its carnage of. color between the Gthon and the Hiddekel. Trouble a good thing for the rocks, a good thing for na tions as well as a good thing for individ uals. So when you push against me with a sharp interrogation point, Why do the good suffer? I open the dark saying on a harp and, though I can neither play an organ or cornet or- hautboy or bugle or clarinet, I have taken some lessons In the gospel harp, and if you would like to hear me I will play you theee: “All things work together for good to those who love God." “Now no chastening for the- gyiWlfi [Sawneth to be joyous, but grievous nevertheless after ward it yleldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exer cised thereby.” “Weeping may endure for anight, but joy comatb lathe morn ing.” What a sweet thing is a harp, and I wonder not that in Wales, the country of my ancestors, the harp has bsistne the national instrument, aDd- jthat tbey have f<«ti vtaba whara Arrant nriTAa in the competition between harp and harp, or that weird Sebastian Eread was much of his time, bent over this okorded and vibrat ing triangle and wae net satisfied until he had given it a-aompsm of six octaves, from E to E with all the semitones, or that when King BaaLwas dmnrotMltha son of Josssoeme before hlmand, PO**in« bls fiaaero among the charmed strings of the monarch, or that in heaven there shall be harpera harping with their harps. So you will not Name ,nw for opening the dark saying on the gospel harp: ¥<mr haips, y» tesmbUag srints, Down from the willows take; Loud to the praise of love divine Bid every string awake! Cowquarln* Stall. Interrogation third: Why did the good God let sin Or trouble come into the world when he might have kept them out? My reply is, He had a good reason. He had reasons that he has never given us. He had reasons which he could no more make us undentend in our finite state than the father, starting out on some great and elaborate enterprise, could make the S y ear-old child in its armed ehate compre hend Ik One was to demonstrate what grandeur of character may be achieved on earth by conquering evil. * Had there been no evil to conquer and no trouble to con sole, thr>n this universe would never have known an Abraham or a Moses, or a Joshua, or an Ezekiel, or a Paul, or a Chirwt, or a Washington, or a John Mil ton, or a John Howard, and 1,000,000 vic tories which have been gained by the con secrated spirits ofi all ages would never have been gained. Had there been no bat tle there would have been no victory. Nine-tenths of the anthems of heaven would never have been sung. Heaven could never have been a thousandth part of the heaven that it is. I will not say that I am glad that ria and sorrow did enter, but I do say, that lam glad that after God has given all his reasons to an assembled universe he will be more honor- ed than if sin and sorrow had. never enter ed, and that the unfailcn celestials will bo outdone and will put down their trumpets to listen, and it will be in heaven, when i those who hare oouqivred sin and sorrow ' shall enter, as it would lie in a small sing ing school on earth it Tbalberg and Gott schalk and Wagner and Beethoven and Rheiabeiger and Schumann should all at oace enter. The Immortals that have been ‘chanting 10,000 years before the i throne will say as they does their librettos, “Oh, if ws could only ring like that!” i But God will ssy to those who have never frilen and consequently have not been re deemed : "You must be silent now. Yem have not the qualification for thia aa ititemz’ 6o they ait with closed lips and folded hands, and sinners saved by grace take up the harmony, for the Bible says “no man could learn that song but the hundred and fjjjty and four thousand which were teUemed from the earth." A great prima donna, who can now do (anything with her voice, told me that when she first started in music her teacher In Berlin told her she could be a good singer, but a certain note she could never reach. “And then," she said, “I went to work and studied and practiced for yeans until I did reach it." But the song of the singer redeemed, the Bible says, the exalt ed harmonists who have never sinned could not reach and never will reach. Would you like to hear me in a very poor way playa snatch of that tune? I can give you only one bar of the music on this gos pel harp, “Unto him that hath loved us and washed us from our sins In his own blood and hath made us kings and priests unto God and the Lamb, to him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.” But before leaving this interrogatory, Why God let sin come into the world? let me say that great battles seem to be noth ing but suffering and outrage at the time iof their occurrence, yet after they have been a long while past we can see that it was better for them to have been fought— namely, Salamis, Inkerman, Toulouse, Arbela, Agincourt, Trafalgar, Blenheim, Lexington, Sedan. So now that the great battles against sin and suffering are going on we can see mostly that which Is de plorable But 20,000 years from now, standing in glory, we shall appreciate that , heaven is better off than if the battle of this world’s sin and suffering had never been projected. Favorites Disciplined. But now I come nearer home and put a dark saying op,the gospel harp, a style of question that is asked a million times ev ery year. Interrogation the fourth: Why do I have It so hard while others have it so easy ?- Or, Why do I have so much diffi culty in getting a livelihood while others go around with a full portempnnaie? Or, Why must I wear these plain clothes while others have to push hard to get their ward robes closed, so crowded are they with brilliant attire? Or, Why should I have to ; work so hard while others have 366 holi days every year? They are all practically one question. I answer them by saying it is because the Lord has his favorites, and he puts extra discipline upon you and ex tra trial because he has for you extra glory, extra enthroneneenMnd extra felicities. That is no guess of mine, but a divine says so: "Whom the Lord loveth he chas teneth.” “Well,"sayssome one, “Iwould rather have a little less in heaven and a little more here. Discount my heavenly robe 10 per cent and let me now put It on ;a fur lined overcoat; put me in a less gor geous room of the house of many mansions and let me have a house here in a better neighborhood." No, no; God is not going to rob heaven, which Is to- be your resl denoe for nine hundred quadrillion of years, to fix up your earthly abode, which you will occupy at most for less than a century, and where you may perhaps stay only ten years longer, or only one year, or perhaps a month more. Now, you had bet ter cheerfully let God have hie way, for, you see, he has been taking care of folks for near 6,000 years and knows how to do It and can see what is best for you better than you can yourself. Don't think yon are too insignificant to be divinely cared for. It was said that Diana, the goddess, could not be present to keep her temple at Ephesus from burning because sbe was at tending upon the birth of him who was to be Alexander the Great. But I tell you that your God and my God is so great in small things as well as large things, that he could attend the cradle of a babe and at time the burning of a world. And God will make it all right with you, and there is one song that you will sing every hour your first ten years in heaven, and the refrain of that song will be, “I am so glad God did not let me have It my own way!” Your case will be all fixed up in heaven, and there will be such a reversal of conditions that we can hard ly find each other for some time. Some of us who have lived In first rate houses here and in first rate neighborhoods will be found, because of our lukewarmness of earthly service, living on one ot the back streets of the celestial city, and clear down at the end of it at No. 808 or 909 or 1606, while some who had unattractive earthly abodes, and a cramped one at that, will in the heavenly city be In a house fronting the royal plaza, right by the imperial fountain or on the heights overlooking the river of life, the chariots of salvation halting at your door, while those visit you who are more than conquerors, and those who are kings and queens unto God for ever. You, my brother, and you, my sister, who have it so hard hen, will have it so fine and grand there that you will hardly know yourself and will feel disposed to dispute your own identity, and the first time I see you there I will cry out, “Didn't I tell you so when you sat down there in ;the pew and looked incredulous because you thought it too good to bo true?" And you will answer, “You were right; the halt was not told me!" So I open your dark saying of despondency and complaint on my gospel harp and give you just one bar of music, for I do not pretend to be much of a player. “The lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall lead them to liv ing fountains of water, and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.” But, I must confess, I am a little perplexed how some of you good Christians are going to get through the gate, because there will be so many there to greet you, and they will all want to shake bands at once and will all want the first kiss. They wIU have heard that you are coming, and they will ail press around to welcome you and will want you to say whether you know them after being so long parted. Adjourned to Eternity. Amid the tussle and romp of reunion I tell you whose hand of welcome yon had better first (clasp and whose cheek is en titled to tbel flrsjt kiss. It !s the hand and the cheek of him without whom you would never gowbere at all, the Lord Jesus, the darßhg oj the skies, as he cries out, loy&rt thee with an everlasting loWTanirthe fires oonld not burn it, and the floods could not drown it.” Then yon, my deer people, having no more use for my poor harp on which I used to open your dark sayings- and whose chords somo fefliiiii ww ~ xsir-Ljjy.'ACk ’ ' timra mapped, dsNteUing the symphony, ' you wiU take down jo..?taWthWefrom I the wUlows that grow by Tf.o eternal water • qoureesand play together those celestial ifWs, someef the names of whieb are en titled "The King In His Beauty, ,7 “Tbe Land That Was Far Off." And as ths I last dark ourtaln of mystery is forevsr fUt i ed it will be as though all the oratorios > that were ever heard had been rolled Into > one, and “Israel la Egypt," and “Jeph ; thah's Daughter," and Beethoven’s “Over tore In C," and Ritter’s first “Sonata In • D Minor,” and the "Creation," and the • “Messiah” had boo.i Ulawn from the lips 1 <of one trumpet or been invoked by the •sweep of one bow or had dropped from the I vibrating chords of one harp. But here 1 must slow up lest tn trying • to solve mysteries I add to the mystery • that we have already wondered at—name- I ly, why preachers should keep on after all the hearers are tired. So I gather up into 1 one great armful oil thewhys andhov* 1 and wherefores of your life and mine ! which wo have not hnd time or the ability I to answer and writ oct them the words, ? “Adjourned to Et rnlty." I rejoice that • we do not undfrctaml all things now, for 1 if we did what would wo learn in heaven? ' If we knew it all'down l.cre in the fresh man and sophomore class, what would bo I the use of our going up to stand amid the juniors and the renlors? If we could put down one leg of the compass and with the • other sweep a circle clear around all the • inscrutables, if we oonld lift our little ' steelyards and weigh the throne of the 1 Omnipotent, if we could with our ot’en 1 day clock measure eternity, what would ’ be left for heavenly revelation? So I move that we cheerfully adjourn what is now beyond our comprehension, and as, aooord -1 Ing to Rollin, the historian, Alexander the Great, having obtained the gold casket • in which Darius had kept his rare per- • fume, used that aromatic casket thereafter l to keep his favorite copy of Homer In and called the book therefore the "Edition of the Casket, " and at night put the casket and his sword under his pillow, so I put ' this day into the perfumed casket of your richest affections and hopes this promise, worth more than anything Homer ever wrote or sword ever conquered, ' 'What I ; do thou knowest not now, but thou shalb know hereafter," and that I call the “Edl ' tion Celestial.” Ordinary's Advertisements, ORDINARY’S OFFICE, Spalding County, Ga.
