Tkvi: "Tho Lord Is my shepherd."—
Psalms xxlil., 1.
What with post and rail fences and our
pride in Southdown, Astrakhan nnd Finn-
|!<!i varieties of sheep, there Is no use now
( ,f the old-time shepherd. Huoh n one had
abundance of opportunity of becoming
a poet, being out of doors twelve hours a
day and ofttlmes waking up In the night
on the hills. If the stars ortho torrents or
t|)0 „ u „ „ r (|| „ ( |,, w ,. rM )„»d anything to
my, he was very apt to hear it. The F.t-
trick Shepherd of Scotland, who afterward
took his Boat in the brilliant circle of Wil¬
son and Lock hurt, got his wonderful which noetic
Inspiration In tho ten years In he
v,-as watching the flocks of Mr, Lnldlaw.
There Is often a sweet poetry fri the rugged
prose of the Scotch shepherd. One of
these Scotch shepherds lost Ids only son,

horn of which you have heard much, “the
Lamb of Hod, which tnketli away the sin
of the world." David, the shepherd hoy,
was beautiful, brave, musical tho and poetic.
I tldak lie Often forgot sheep In Ills
reveries. There In the solitude he struck
the harp string that is thrilling through all
ages. David tho boy was gathering the
material for David the poet and David the
man. Dike other boys, David was fond of
using bail noticed Ids knlfeomong the exuding the of saplings, the juice end of the lm
tree, and wlmn lie hoeamo a man he said,
"The trees of the Lord are fall of Http.”
David the boy, like other hoys, Imd been
fond of hunting tho birds’ nests, and lm
had driven the old stork off Urn nest to find
Imw many eggs were limb r her, and when
lm became a man lie sold, “As fur the stork,
the Ur trees are her house." In boyhood
lie had heard the terrific thunderstorm
that frightened the rod deer Into prema¬
ture sickness, and when ho became a man
ho salil, "The voice of the Lord rnakelh

lain upon Ills hack looking up at tho stars

Imagination tho sky seonim! like a piece of

lug la the threads of light lied the beads of
stars, and he lieeairm a man and wrote,
"Wlmn I consider thy heavens, the work
of thv lingers." Wlmn lie became an old
man, thinking of tlm goodness of Hod, lie
seemed to hear the bleating of tits father’s
sheep a Toss many years and to think of
tho time when lie tended thorn on the lietli-
i'diom hills, mid he cries nut III the text,
“The Lord Is my shepherd.”
if Hod will help me, J will talk to you of

Ttu» sclssois uud needle Imd done nOtlitng

nin*k nnd two for tbo arms. Although the
gamblers quarreled iivcr It. tlmt Is no evi¬
dence of Its value. 1 have seen two rag-
pickers quarrel over tlm refuse of all itdi

left the sandals of light, the girdles of
beauty, the robes of power and put oil tho
besolled and lattered raiment of our lm-
niHntty. Sometimes ho did not oven wear
tho seamless robe. What Is tlmt Imaging
about tho waist of Christ? Is It abnilgo of
authority? is It a royal coat of arms? filthy No,
it is a towel, Tho disciples’foot nro

Ilf to bo pul upon the sofas on which they
arc to reellnn at tho incut, and so Jesus
washes their feet and gathers thorn up in
tho towel to dry thorn. The work of saving
t tils World ivas rough ivork, rugged work,
hard work, and Jesus put oil tho raiment,
the plain raiment, of c>ur flesh.
Next 1 mention tho shepherd’s crook,
This was a rod with a curve at llm end,
which, when a slump was g.dng astray, was

when tho slump wore out of tho way the

Immediately ijulet. Who ts the last man
that comes? It Is tho shepherd. All, my
friends, ho not afraid of the shepherd’s
crook. It U never used on you savo in
mercy to pull you back, Tho bard, cold
Iceberg of trouble will melt In the warm
gulf stream of divine sympathy.
J here is one pas-utge f think you mtsm-
terpret, "The l.rtiI.....I reed He will not
break." l)o you know that the shepherd
lo olden tlnr-s played easily upon bruised, thc.se rends?
They were bruised very hut when
they were they were never mended.
Thu shuplierd could so easily make imother
one, lie would tump the old one and throw
lt away and get another. The Bible says
it Is not so with our Hhephord. When the
music Is gone out of u man’s soul, Ood does
not snap him In twain arid throw him away,
Ho mends and restores, "Tho bruised
reed Ho will not break.”
Noxt I speak of the shepherds’ dogs. They
watch the straying sheep and drive thorn
hack again. Every shepherd the has his dog,
from tho nomads of Bible times down
to the Scotch herdsman watching Ids (locks
on the Grampian hills. Our shepherd om-
ploys the criticisms and persecutions of the
world as bis dogs. There are those, you
know, whose whole work It Is to wateli the
Inconsistencies of Christians and bark at
them. It one of God’s sheep g.da astray,
the world howls. With more avidity than
a shepherd’s flanks dog ever lugged caught a stray the sheep
by the or the Christian It by ears It
worldlings seize astray.
ought to do us good to know that we are
thus watched, it ought to put us on our
guard. They cannot bite us If we stay near
the Shepherd, only The sharp the vines knife until of worldly -they
assauit will trim
produce better grapes. The moro you
pound marjoram and rosemary the sweeter
they smell. The moro dogs take after you
the auleker vou will get to the gate.
You have noticed that different (locks of
sheep have different marks upon them—
sometimes a red mark, sometimes a blue
mark, sometimes a straight mark and some-
times a crooked mark. The Lord our Shep¬
herd lias a mark for Ills sheep. It Is a red
mark, the mark of the cross. '‘Blessed are
they that are persecuted for righteousness’
sake, for theirs Is tho kingdom of heaven.”
Furthermore, consider the shepherds’
pasture grounds. Tho old shepherds used
to take the sheep upon the mountains in
the summer and dwell In the valleys In the
winter. The sheep being out of doors per¬
petually, their wool was better than if they
had boon kept In the hot atmosphere of the
sheep cot. W'-lls were dug for the sheep
and covered with large stones in order that
the hot weather might not s; ill the water.
Ami then the shepherd Nobody led disputed his flock bis right. wher¬
ever lie would.
Ko the Lord our Shepherd has a large pas¬
ture ground. He takes us In the summer
to the mountains and in the winter to the
valleys. Warm days of prosperity and come,
and we stand on sun gilt Sabbaths on
hills of t nyusilguration, and we are so high
up wo can catch a glimpse of the pinnacles
of tho heavenly city. Then col 1 wintry
days of trouble eorne, and we go down Into
the valley of sickness, want and bereave-
moot, and wesay, “Is there any sorrow like
unto my sorrow?” Hut, blessed In God,
tho Lord s sheep caii Had pasture any-
wlie.ro, Jietweon two rocks of trouble a
tuft of succulent promises, green pastures be*
in\si«lo ntill waturn, long swt?ut tfruss
tween bitter graves, You havo noticed tho
structure of tho sheep’s mouth? It is so
sharp that it can take up a blade of grass
or e|ovor top from the very narrowest spot.
And so (bid’s sheep can pick up comfort
where of hers can gather none, '"The secret
of the Lord Is with them that fear him,”
Lastly, consider the shepherd's fold.
The time of sheep shearing was a very glad
time. The neighbors gathered together,
and they poured wine and danced for joy.
The sheep were put in a plnco inclosed
by a wall, where It was very easy lo count
them and know whether any of them had
been taken by the jackals or dogs. Tho
inelosurowas called thosheepfold. Hood
news I have to tell a’sheepfold, you, In that our Lord
the Shepherd lias and those
who are gathered in It shall never bo
struck by the storm, shall never be touched
by tho jackals of temptation and trouble.
It has a high wall so high that no
troubles cau get in—SO high that tho joys
cannot got out, IIow glad tho old sheep
will bo to flint tho iambs that left thom a
good many years ago. Millions of children
lit heaven. Oh, what a merry heaven tt
will make! Not many long meter psalms
thero. They will bo In tho majority and
will run away with our song, cnrrylifg It
up to a still higher point of ecstasy. Oh,
there iv’II bo shouting, If chihlron on
earth clapped their bands and danced for
joy, what will they do when to tho glad¬
ness of childhood oil earth Is added tho
gladness of childhood In heaven?
It is time \vo got over those morbid ideas
of how W<* shall got out of this world,
You make your religion r.u undertaker

In June, 1815, there was a very noble
party gathered in a house in Ht. James’
square, London. Tho prince regent was
present, and the occasion was made fas¬
cinating by music and banqueting and by
jewels, While a all quadrille people was rushed being

Eating Hefore Going to Bed.
A writer in Italia . r.s Terinale , quoted by
tho National Druggist, is not much in
favor of the theory that late suppers

saye tho lattor peeper, that many pel -
sons who remain thin and weanly, in
spite of all precautions iu regard to
diet, etc., owe the fact largely to ha¬
bitual abstemiousness at night, He
says, very truly, that physiology teach¬
es us that, in sleeping as in waking,
there is a perpetual waste going on in
the tissues of the body, and it .seems
but logical that nourishment should, be
continuous as well. The digestion of
foo; j ul g cn at t he dinner time, or in the
early evening, is finished, as a usual
thing, heforo or by bedtime, yet the
activity of processes of assimilation,
eU'., progress for hours afterward, and
when one retires with an empty stom-
ach, the result of this activity is sleep-
lessness, and an undue wasting of the
si'dtnt. , . , . All other , creatuies, ___, . says the ..
writer, ’outside of man, are governed
by a natural instinct, which leads those
having a stomach to cat before lying
down for the night.”

In every large city, and this one hap-
pened In New York. George Erb had
some trouble In his brain. The dell-
cate machinery got out of order, a cog
in some Internal wheel broke, in the
"harp of a thousand strings,'’ one
string snapped, and the man was lm-
mediately thrown off his mental bal-
ance. Sometimes when this occurs the
sufferer has horrid visions, Is chased
by bloodhounds and lives In terror of
being caught. Hut Erb had better for-
tune, for he thought he was an angel,
that his wings were fully grown, and
that he could fly straight to heaven.
So ho leaped from tho third-story
window of his boarding house. He ex-
pected to go upward, hut the law of
