An Abominable Legacy.
A tendency to rheumatism is undoubtedly in-
Merited. Unlike many other legacies, it re¬
mains in the family. The most effectual means
of checking this tendency, or of removing in¬
cipient rheumatism, whether pro-existent in tho
bloou or not, is to resort to Hostetter’s Stomach

felt. and Nullifying fatigue, the influences of cold, expo¬

Text: “As an ox to tho slaughter.”—
Proverbs vii., 22.
There is nothing in the voice or manner
of the butcher to indicate to the ox that
there !s death ahead. The ox thinks he is
going on to a rich pasture field of clover
where all day long he will revel iu the herb¬
aceous luxuriance, but after awhile the
men and the boys close in noon him with
sticks and stones and shouting and drive
him through bars and into a doorway, where
he is fastened, and with well aimed stroke
the ax fells him, and so tho anticipation of
the redolent pasture field Is completely dis¬
appointed. So many a young man has been
driven on by temptation to what bethought
would be paradisiacal enjoyment, but after
awbile influences with darker hue and
swarthier arm close in upon him, and lie
flnds that instead of making an excursion
into a garden he has been driven “as an ox
to the slaughter.”
We are apt to blame young men lor be¬
ing destroyed when we ought to blame the
influences' that destroy them. Society
slaughters a great many young men by tho
behest: “You must keep up appearances.
Whatever be your salary, you must dress
as well as others, you must give wine and
smoke' brandy to as many friends, yon must
as costly cigars, you must give as
expensive entertainments and you must
live in as fashionable a boarding house. If
you haven’t the money, borrow. If you
can’t borrow, make a false entry or sub¬
tract here and there a bill from a bundle of
bank bills. You will only have to make
the deception a little while. In a few
months or in a year or two you can make
it all right. Nobody will be hurt by it, no¬
body will be the wiser. You yourself will
not be damaged.” By that awful process
100,000 men have been slaughtered for time
and slaughtered for eternity.
Suppose you borrow. There is nothing
wrong about borrowing money. Thoro is
hardiya man who has not sometimes bor¬
rowed money. Vast estates have been built
on a borrowed dollar. But there are two
kinds of borrowed money, money borrowed
for the purpose of starting or keeping up
legitimate enterprise arid expense and
money borrowed to get that which you can
do without. The first is right, the other is
■wrong. If you have money enough of your
own borrow to buy a coat, however dandy’s plain, outfit, and then
you money for a you
have taken the first revolution of the wheel
down grade. Borrow for necessities; that
may be well. Borrow for the luxuries; that
tips your prospects over in the wrong di¬
rection.
The Bible distinctly says the borrower is
servant of tho lender. It is a bad state of
things when you have to go down some
other street to escape meeting some one
whom you owe. If young men knew whnt
is the despotism of being in debt, more of
th9m would keep out of it. What did debt
do for Lord Bacon, witli a mind towering
above the centuries? It induced him to
take bribes and convict himself as a crim¬
inal before ail ages. Wliat did debt do for
Walter Scott, broken hearted at Abbots¬
ford 11 Kept him writing until his hand
gave out in paralysis to keep the sheriff
away from his pictures and statuary. Bet¬
ter for him if he had minded the maxim
which he bad chiseled over the fireplace at
Abbotsford. “Waste not. want not.”
The trouble is. my friends, that people do
not understand the ethics of going in debt,
and that if you purchase goods with no ex¬
pectation debts which of paying for them, meet, or go steal into
you cannot you "a
just so much I money. If I nnd go into coffees grocer’s and
store and buy sugars
meats witli no capacity to pay for them,
and no intention of paying for them, I am
more dishonest than if I go into the store,
and when the grocer’s face is turned the
other way I fill my pockets with the arti¬
cles of merchandise and carry off a ham.
In the one ease I take the merchant’s time,
and I take the time, of his messenger to
transfer tho goods to my house, while in
the other case I take none of the time of the
merchant, and I wait upon myself, and I
transfer the goods without sneak any thief trouble to
him. In other words, a is not
so bad as a man wiio contracts debts lie
never expects to pay.
Yet in all our cities there are families
who move every May day to get into prox¬
imity to other They grocers and everybody meatshops nnd
apothecaries. where owe live,and within
half a mile of they now next
Muy they will move into a distant part of
the city, finding a new lot of victims.
Meanwhile you, the honest family in tho
new house, are bothered day by day by the
knocking at the door of disappointed bakers
and butchers and dry goods dealers and
newspaper carriers, and you are asked
where your predecessor is. You should do not
know. It was arranged predecessor you not
know. Meanwhile your has
gone to some distant part of the city, and
tho peojAe who have anything stopped to sell have
sent tlieir wagons and there to so¬
neighbor, licit the “valuable” he, custom tiie of neighbor, the new
and new
with great complacency finest steaks and an air the of high¬ afflu¬
ence, orders tho and
est priced sugars and tho best of the canned
fruits and perhaps all the newspapers. And
the debts will keep on accumulating until
begets his goods on the 30th of next April
in the furniture cart.
No wonder that so many of our mer¬
chants failin business. They are swindled
into bankruptcy by these wandering Arabs,
these nomads of city life. They cheat the
grocer out of the green apples which make
them sick, the physician who the attends them
during tlieir distress anil undertaker
who fits them out for departure from the
neighborhood where they owe everybody
when they pay the debt ol nature, the only
debt they" ever do pay. coming
Now our young men are up in
this depraved state of commercial ethics,
and I am solicitous ubout them. I want to
warn them against being slaughtered on
the sharp edges of debt. Yon want many
things; you have not, my young friends.
You shall have them if you have patience
and honesty anil industry. Certain lines of
conduct always lead out to certain successes.
There is a law which controls even tho3o
things that seem haphazard. I have been
told by those who have observed that it is
possible to calculate just how many letters
will be sent to the dead letter office every
year through misdirection; just that it is possi-
ble to calculate how many letters will
be detained for lack of postage stamps
through the forgetfulness of the senders,
and that it is possible to tell just how many
people will fall in the streets by slipping on
an orange peel. In other words, there are
no accidents. The of most insignificant link between event

eternity of the future. way,

they are watchful to see whether there are
any unnecessary expenses at the obsequies, handle
to see whether there is any useless

surplus plait on the shroud, to see whether
tho hoarse is costly or cheap, to see

which he died. Cursed be debt! For
sake of your own happiness, for tho sake
of good morals, for the sake of your im¬
mortal sou!, for God's sake, young man, as
far as possible keep out of itl
But I think more young men are
slaughtered through irreligion. Takeaway make
a young man’s religion and you
him tho prey of evil. Wo all know that
the Bible is the only perfect svstem of
morals. Now, if you want to destroy a
young man’s morals, take his Bible away.
How will you do that? Well, you will cari¬
cature his reverence all for incidents the Scriptures, of the
Bibjto you will take those
which can he made mirth of - Jonah's
whale, Sampson’s foxes, Adam’s rib. Then
you will caricature eccentric Christians or
inconsistent Christians. Then you will
pass off as your own all those hackneyed
arguments against Christianity which are
as old as Tom Paine, as old as Voltaire,
as old as sin. Now have* you have captured his
Bible, and you taken his strongest
fortress. The way is comparatively clear,
and all the gates of his soul are set open
in invitation to the sins of earth and the
sorrows of death, that they may come in
and drive tho stake for their encampment. witli
A steamer 1500 miles from shore,
broken rudder and lost compass, and hulk
leaking fifty gallons the hour, is better off
than a young man when you have robbed
him of ills Bible. Have you ever noticed
how despicably mean it is to take away the
world’s Bible without proposing a substi¬
tute? It is meaner than corning to ft sick
man and steal his medicine, meaner than
to come to a cripple and steal his crutch,
meaner than to come to a pauper and steal
his crust, meaner than to come to a poor
man and burn bis house down. It is the
worst of all larcenies to steal the Bible
which has been crutch and medicine and
food and ofernal home to so many. Wliat
a generous and magnanimous into—this business in¬
fidelity has gone splitting up of
lifeboats and taking away of fire escapes
and extinguishing of lighthouses! ‘‘What I come
out and I say to such people, are
you doing all this for?” “Oh,” they say,
“just for fun.” It is such fun to see Chris¬
tians try to hold on to their Bibles! Many ha-ve
of them have lost loved ones and
been told that there is a resurrection, and
it is such fun to tell them there will be no
resurrection! Many of them have believed
that Christ came to carry the burdens and
to heal the wounds of the world, and it is
such fun to tell them they will have to be
their own savior! Think of the meanest
thing you ever heard of, then go down 1000
feet underneath it, and you will find your¬
self at the top of a stairs 100 miles long; go
to the bottom of the stairs, and you will
find a ladder 1000 miles long; then go to
the foot of the ladder and look off a preci¬
pice half as far as from here to China, and
you will find the headquarters of the mean¬
ness that would rob this world of its only
comfort in life, its only peace in death and
its only hope for immortality. Slaught is era
young man’s faith in God, and there not
much more left to slaughter. slaugh¬
Now what has become of the
tered? Well, some of them are in down tlieir
father's or mother’s house, broken
in health, waiting to die; others are in tho
hospital, others are in the cemetery, or,
rather, their bodies are, for their souls
have gone on to retribution. Not much

be stopped? There is not a person who is
not interested in that question. The ob¬
ject each of iny sermon hands is to put a weapon in
of your for your own defense.
Wait not for Young Men’s Christian Asso¬
ciations to protect you or churches to pro¬
tect you. Appealing to God for help, take
care of yourself.
First, have a room somewhere that you "the
can call your own. Whether it pc
back parlor of a fashionable boarding
house or a room in the fourth story of a
chGiip lodging I care not. Only have that
one room your fortress. Let not the dissi-
pater or unclean step over the threshold.
If they come up the long flight of stairs and
knock at tho door, meet them face to face
and ktndlv yet firmly refuse them admit¬
tance. Have a few family portraits on the
wall, if you brought them with you from
your country homo. Have a Bible on the
stand. If you can afford it and can play
on one, have an instrument of music—harp
or flute or cornet or melodeon or violin or
piano. Every morning before you leave
that room pray. Every night after you
come homo in that room pray. Make that
room your Gibraltar, your Sevastopol,
your Mount Ziou. Let no bad book or
newspaper come into that room any more
than you would allow a cobra to coil on
your table.
Take care of yourself. help Nobody else will
take care of you. Your will not come
up two or three or four flights of stairs;
your help will come through the roof, down
from heaven, from that God who in the
6000 years of the world’s history never be¬
trayed a young man who tried to be good
and a Christian. Let me say in regard to
your adverse worldly circumstances,in level those pass-

There is no class of persons that so stir
my sympathies as young salary men in great
cities. Not quite enough to live on,
and all the temptations that come from
that deficit. Invited on all hands to drink,
and tlieir exhausted nervous system seem¬
ing to demand stimulus. Their religion

I never shall forget a prayer I heard a
young man make some fifteen but" years ago.
It was a very short prayer it was* a
tremendous prayer: “0 Lord, help usl Wo
find it so very easy to do wrong and so
hard to do right! Lord, help usl” That
prayer, I warrant you, reached the ear of
God and reached His heart. And there are
100 men who have found out—1000 young
cnon, perhaps, who have found out—that
very thing. It is so very easy to do wrong
and so hard to do right. only
I got a letter one day, one para¬
graph, which I shall road: I
“Having moved around somewhat,
run across many young men of intel¬
ligence, ardent Btrivers after that will-o’-
the-wisp—fortune—and of one of these I
would speak. He was a young Englishman
of twenty-three or twenty-four years, who
came to" Now York, where he had no ac¬
quaintances, with barely sufficient to keep
him a couple of weeks. He had been ten¬
derly reared, perhaps I should say too ten¬
derly, and was not used to earning his
living and found It extremely difficult to
got any position that he was capable of fill¬
ing. After many vain efforts in this direction
he found himself on a Sunday evening in
Brooklyn, near your church, with about 33
left of his small capital. Providence seemed
to lead him to vour door, and ho determined
to go in and hoar you. Ho told mo his
going to hear you that night was undoubt¬
edly the turning point in Ids life, for when
lie went into your church he felt desper¬
ate, but while listening to your discourse
his better nature got the mastery. I truly
believe from wliat this young man told me
that your sounding the. depths of his heart
that night clone brought him back to his
God whom he was so near leaving.”
That is tho echo of multitudes. I am
not preaching an abstraction, but a great
reality. O friendless young man, O
prodigal young man, O broken hearted
young man, discouraged young man,
wounded young man, I commend to you
Christ this day, the best friend a man ever
had. Ho meets you this morning. De¬
spise not that emotion rising in your soul;
it is divinely lifted. Look into the face of
Christ. Lift one prayer to your father’s
God, to your mother’s God, and this morn¬
ing get tho pardoning blessing. Now,
while I speak, you are at the forks of the
road, and this is tho right'road, and that is
the wrong road, and I see you start on the
right road. morning at the close of the

renowned and deeply lamented violinist,
Ole Bull. You remember he died in Ids
island home off the coast of Norway. That
gold watch he had kept wound up day
after day through his last illness, and then
he said to his companion. “Now, I want to
wind this watch as long as I can, and then
when I am gone I want you to keep it
wound up until it goes to my friend. Dr.
Doremus, in New York, and then he will

SUFFERING WOMEN.
How Many of Them Have Quietly
Obtained Advice That Made
Them Well.
My sister, if yon find that in spite of
following faithfully your family doc¬
tor’s advice, you are not getting well,
why do you not try another course?
Many and many a woman has quietly
written to Mrs. Pinkham, of Lynn,
Mass., stating her symptoms plainly
and clearly, and taken her advice, which
was promptly received. The follow¬
I ing letter is a
a pretty strong
8 confirmation of
S our claims:
f | “I had been
1 i 9 sick for six
V- months;
^9 one doctor
II I.jIB told me I
in! would have
> Ok to go to a
I \ \ hospital
\ before 1
would get well. I had female troubles
in their worst form, suffered untold
agonies every month ; my womb tipped
back to my backbone, had headache,
hysteria, fainting spells, itching, leu-
corrhoea.
“ My feet and hands were cold all
the time, my limbs were so weak that
I could hardly walk around the house;
was troubled with numb spells. 1
have taken four bottles of Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, one
bottle of her Blood Purifier, one pack-
age of her Sanative Wash, and am
entirely cured. I have not had one
of those numb spells since. Can you
wonder that I sing the praises of a
medicine that has cured me of all these
ills ?”■— Mrs. Louisa Place, 650 Bel-
mont St., Brockton, Mass. '
