DR.TALMAGE’S SERMON The Eminent Divine’s Bu.nday Disoourse. Snbjjoet: “Bundles of Lifo“—Inspiration { ! ivrawn From a Homely I'ln-ase—Life, j Spiritual an<l Physical, i% Divinely Pro- 11 untiles Which Arc Blessings. ! , Te*t: “The soul of my Lord shall bo bound In the bundle of life with tho Lord thy d-od.”—I Samuel xxv., 29. Beautiful Abigail, in her rhythmic plea for tide rescue of her inebriate husband, who died within ten days, addresses David, the warrior, in the words of the text. She suggests’ that his life, pliysionily and in- tslIectuaUy and spiritually, is a valuable package or bundle divinely bound up and to be div inelv orotected The phrase “bundle of life”I hoard many times in my father’s family prayers. Fnm- ily prayers you know, day have frequent repetl- tlons, because by day they aoknowl- edg * about the same blessings and deplore about the same frailties and sympathize with about the same misfortunes, and I do not kno w why those who lead at household devotioT.s should seek variety ot compost- tion. That familiar prayer becomes tho household liturgy. I would not give one of my old father’s prayers for fifty eloou- tionary the^norning supplications. Again and again, in and evening prayer, I heard the request that we might all ,be hound up in tho bundle ot life, but I did not know until a few days ago that the phrase was a Bible phrase. the last spell of cold weather During there were bundles that attracted tho at¬ tention and the plaudits of the high heav¬ ens, bundles of clothing on the way from comfortable homes to tho door of the mission room, and Christ stood in the snowbanks and said as the bundles passed: “Naked, and ye clothed me. Inasmuch as ye have clone it unto one of the least of those my brethren ye have done jt unto me.“ Those bundles are mnitibly- ing. Blessings• on thoso who pack them, Blessings on those who distribute them, Blesslngs on those who receive them. With what beautiful aptitude did Abigail In mv text speak of the bundle of lifel Oh, what a precious bundle is life! Bundle of memories, bundle of hopes, bundle of ambitions, bundle of destinies! Once in awhile a man writes his autobiography, and it is of thrilling interest. The story of his birthplace, the story of his struggles, the storv of his sufferings, the story of his triumphs! But if the autobiography of the most eventful life were well written it would make many chapters of adventure, of tragedy, of comedy, and there would not be an uninteresting or step from cradle to grave. Bundle of memories are you! Boyhood memories, with all its injustices from play- mates, with all its game with ball and bat * svs Manhood memories, stacles, opposition, accidents, misfortunes, ory of the first advent in your home, mem- ory of roseate cheek faded and of blue eyes closed in the last sleep, memory great of anthem and of dir^e, memory of pain and of slow alf convalescence, memory of times when things were against you, memory of prosperities that came in like the full tide of the sea, memories of a life- time. What a bundle! Bundle of hopes and ambitions also is al- most every man and woman, especially at the starting. What gains he will harvest, or what reputation , he will achieve, or what bliss he will reach, or what love he will win. What makes college commence- ment day so entrancing to all of us as we see the students receive their diplomas and take .up the garland3 thrown to their feet? They will be Faradays in science; they Willard will be Tennysons in.poesy; they will be Parkers in surgery; they will be Alexander Hamiltons in national finance; they will be Horaee Greeleys in editorial chair; they Will be Websters in the Senate. Or she ■will bo a Mary Lyon in educational realms, or a Frances Willard on reforma- tory platform, or a Helen Gould in military hospitals. Or she will make home life radiant with helpfulness womanhood. and self-sacrifice and magnificent Oh, what a bundle of hopes and ambftions! It is a bundle dt garlands and scepters frpm which I would not take one sprig of mignonette nor extinguish one spark of brilliance. They who start life without bright hopes and inspiring ambitions might as well not start at ali, for every step will be a failure. Rather would I add to the bundle, and if I open it now it will be because I wish to take anything from it, but that I may put into it more coronets and hosannas. Bundle of faculties in every man and everv woman! Power to think—to think of the past and through all the future, to think upward ami higher than the highest pinnacle of heaven, or to think downward until there is no lower abysm to fathom, Power to think right, power to think wrong, power to think forever, for, once having begun to think, there shall be no terminus for that exercise, and eternity itself shall have no power to bid it halt. Faculties to love—filial leva, conjugal love, paternal love, maternal love, love of country, love of God. Fifculty of judgment, mighty with they scales so delicate and yet so can weigh arguments, weigh emotions, weigh worlds, weigh heaven and hell. Faculty oi Will that can climb mountains or tunnel them, eteriiai wade seas or bridge them, accepting enthronement or choosing ever- lasting exile. Oli, what U is to be a man! Oh what it is to be a woman! Sublime and • infinite bundle of faculties! The thought of it staggers me, swamps me, stuns me, bewilders'me, overwhelms Abigail of me, text Oh, what abuadle of life my saw in David and which we ought to see in every human yet immortal being! Know, also, that this bundle of life is properly directed. Many a bundle has missed its way and disappeared because the address has dropped, what and no one town can find by examination for city AU or or neighborhood it was intended, great carrying companies have so many misdi- rected. packages that they appoint intelligent days of vendue to dispose of them. All people know the importance of having ft • valuable package plainly directed, the name of tho one to whom It is to go plainly written. Baggage master and expressman ought to know at the first glance to whom to talre it Tha bundle of life that Abigail In my . text speaks of is plainly directed addressed. heaven- By divine penmanship ’However it is wnrd. lODg may be the earthly distance it travels Its destination is the eternal city of God on high. Every mile it goes away from that direction is by some human or infernal fraud practiced against it. There are those who put it on some other track, who misplace it in some wrong conveyance, who send it off or send it hack by some diabolic miscarriage. The value of that bundle is so, well known all up and down the universe that there are 1,000,000 dishonest hands whioh are trying to detain or divert it or to forever stop its progress in the right direction.

Th# While Men Who Live There o! Their Own Choice. It seems strange that with freedom to come and go civilized men should choose to dwell in a region so terribly bleak and sterile as Labrador. Yet of the 8,700 inhabitants of that great peninsular, 3,000 are of the white or mixed race. They mainly are descen¬ dants of English sailors, some of whom were shipwrecked and move of whom \ probably left their ships without leave. Finding themselves stranded on Shis lonely shore, they made the best of their lot, marrying Eskimo wives and living after the manner of the country. ! in later times some Newfoundlanders ! chose rather to settle in Labrador I than make the uncomfortable trips to I and fro yearly from St. .John’s for the j annual shores. codftshing These brought off the their wives and children with them and intro- duced a new strain of civilized life. All of these people live in little set¬ tlements strung along the coast, on Islands or in fiords, from Battle Har¬ bor south to the Gulf of St. Law¬ rence. They dwell, in houses of stone or logs. In winter they wear hooded fur garments like the Eskimos: in summer the ordinary garb of New¬ foundland fishermen, Tho women dress in gray or blue woollen stuff, with a gaudy gown for best. On their heads they wear a knit hood or a bright-colored handkerchief, and, it may be, at out-of-door work or abroad on the water, a man’s sou'wester. Against tho walls in their houses are pasted such pictures ns they have been able to clip from the few news¬ papers 'that fall in their way. adver¬ tising lithographs that have come with goods to the trading stores, and pic¬ tures of thes ort issued by tract so¬ cieties. On the table or shelf in the living room is always a Bible, reli¬ giously read on Sunday when the cod are not biting or a fare of fisli to be dressed and flaked. It is a devout and sober-minded community, that of the whites along the coast of Labra¬ dor. Their religious ministrations are provided by the Moravians, who have several missions in Labrador; their temperance is assured by stringent laws forbidding the landing of any liquors in Labrador, and these are made effective by a thorough patrol by the Dominion revenue steamships, which deal inexorably with smugglers of strong water. American Exhibits at Paris. Hundreds of American horseless car¬ riages and vehicles of all kinds will be seen on the streets of Paris during the great universal exposition of 1000. Contracts have recently been let in various eities in the United States, notably Chicago, for the building and equipping of about 5,000 electrical car¬ riages. American railroads are pre¬ paring to make extensive exhibits at the Paris Exposition, and some of them will be full of novel and striking ideas. One plan, which has already received the approval of a number of tho leading railroad companies, pro¬ vides for the construction of an enor¬ mous upright relief or profile map of the United States, on which every line of railroad in the country will be marked by electrical devices.—New York Journal of Commerce.
