TALMAGFS ___ The „ Kmir.ent *7 r; Divines i , ,, Sunday . Discourse. Subject: The Glories of Heaven—Christ'» Attraetlvenen* Painted In uinwlng Col- ore—From Ivory Palncos to the Agony of the Crucifixion, (Copyright, Louts Klopscli. 18D9.1 WAsnmoTON, P. C.—Iu this discourse Dr. Tnlmage sets forth the glories of the world to come and the attractiveness of the Christ, who opens the way; text. Psalms, xlv., 8, “All Thy garments smell of myrrh and aloes and oassia out of the tvory pal- aces.” Among the grand adornments of the olty of Purls is the Olmrch of Notre Dame, with great towers niul elaborate rose windows and sculpturing of the last judgment, with the trumpeting angels and rising doad; its battlements of (juatro foil; Its sacristy, with ribbed cuillugs and statues of saints, But there was nothing in all that build- ing which more vividly appealed to my plain republican tastes than the costly vestments which lay In oaken prqssos —robes that had beon embroidered with gold and great been occasions, worn by Popes and archbishops on There was a robe that had been worn by Pius VII. at the crowning of the first Napoleon. There was also n vestment that had boen worn at the baptism of Napoleon II. As our guide opened the oakon presses aad brought out these vestmonts of fabulous oost and lifted them up the fragrance of the pungent aro- matics in whioh they had been preserved filled the place with a sweetness that wns almost oppressive. Nothing that had been done in stone more vividly Impressed me than these tbingB that had been done In cloth and embroidery and perfume. But to-day I open the drawer of this text, and I look upon the kingly robes of Christ, and as I lift them, flashing with eternal jewels, the whole house is filled with the aroma of these aloes garments, and whioh “smell of myrrh aDd cassia out of the ivory pal- aoos.” In my text the King steps forth. His robes rustle and blaze as He advances. His pomp and power and glory overmaster the spectator. More brilliant is He than Queen Vashti moving amid the Persian princes; than Marie Antoinette on the day when Louis XVI. put upon her the ueoklaco of 800 diamonds; than Anne Boleyn the day when Henry VIII. welcomed her to his palace—all stand beauty and all pomp forgotten while we in the presenco of this Im- perial glory, King of Zion, King of the earth, King of heaven, King forever! Her garments not worn out, not dust be- dolent. draggled, It but radiant and they jeweled and re- seems as If must have been pressed 100 years amid the flowers of heaven. The wardrobes from which they kave been taken must have been sweet wlth clusters of camphor and frankin- cense and all manner of precious wood, Do you not inhale the odors? Aye, aye. “They smell of myrrh and aloes and cassia •out,of the ivory palaces.” Your first curiosity Is to know why the robes of Christ are odorous with myrrh, This was a bright leafed Abyssinian plant. It was trifoliated. The Greeks. Egyptians, Homans and Jews bought and sold it at a high price. The first present that was over given to Christ was a sprig of myrrh thrown on His infantile bed in Bethlehem, and the last gift that Christ ever had was myrrh pressed The natives into the would cup take of (His cruoi- flxion. a stone and bruise the tree, and then it would exude & gum that would saturate all the ground beneath. This gum was used for the purposes of merchandise. One piece of St no larger than a chestnut would whelm a whole room with odors. It was put In closets, in ohests, in drawers, in rooms, and its perfume adhered almost in- terminably to anything that was anywhere near it. So when in my text I read that Christ’s garments smell of myrrh I frame- diately conclude the exquisite sweetness of Jesus. Would that you all knew His sweetness! How soon you would turn from all other attractions! If the philosopher leaped out of his oatli in a frenzy of joy and clapped hIs hands and rushed through the streets because he had found the solution, of a leaping mathematical from the prohlenj, fountain how of will Saviour’s you feel a tnercy and pardon, washed clean and made white as snow ; when th6 question has been solved, “How can my soul be saved?” Naked, frostbitten, storm-lashed soul, let Jesus this hour throw around thee the “garments that smell of myrrh and aloes and cassia out of the ivory palaoe.” know Your second curiosity is to why the robes of Jesus are odorous with aloe#, There is some difference of opinion about where these aloes grow, what is the color of the flower, What is- the Suffloe particular ap- pearance of the herb. it for you and me tojknow that aloes mean bitterness the world over, and when Christ comes with garments bearing that particular odor they suggest to me the bitterness of a Saviour’s sufferings. Were there ever such nights as Jesus lived through—nights on the mountains, nights on the sea, nights in the desert? Who eyer had such a hard re- ceptlon as Jesus had? A hostelry the first, an unjust trial In oyer and terminer an- ota er, a foul mouthed, yelling mob the last. Was there a spuce on Ills hack as wide as your two Augers where He was not whipped? Was there a space on His brow an inch square where He was not cut of the briers? When the spike struck at the instep, did it not go cl-ar through to the hollow of the foot? Oh, long, deep, bitter pilgrimagel Aloes] Aloesl John leaned his head Five on Christ, thousand but who did Christ lean on? men fed by the Saviour; who fed Jesus? The sympathy of a Saviour’s heart going out to the leper and the adultress; but who soothed Christ? He had a fit place neither to be born nor to die. A poor babe! A poor lad! A poor young uianl Not so tnuoh as a taper to cheer His dying hours, Even the enndie of the sun snuffed out. Was it not all aloes? Our sins, sorrows, bereavements, losses and all the agonies of earth and hell picked up as in one cluster find squeezed into one cup, and that pressed to Hisiips until the aerjd, nanseat- ing, hitter draft was swallowed with a dis- torted countenance and a shudder from head to foot and a gurgling strangulation, Aloes, aloes! Nothing but aloes. AH this for Himself? All this to get the fame in the world of being a martyr? All this in a spirit of stubbornness, because He did not like Ctesar? No, nol All this because He ’ wanted to pluck me and you from hell. Because He wanted to raise me and you to heaven. Because we were lost and He wanted us found. Beoause we Beoause were blind, and He wanted us to see. we were serfs, and He wanted us manumitted, Ob, ye In whose cup of life the sacobarin has predominated: oh, ye who have had bright and toward sparkling Him who beverages, in how stead do you feel disenthrallment, your and to purchase the your aloes, the took the aloes, unsavory bitter aloes? know Your third curiosity is to why these cassia? garments of Christ are odorous with . This was a plant which grew in India, and the adjoining islands. You do not care to hear what kind of a flower ft had or what kind of a stalk. It Is enough for me to tell you that it was used tnedioinaily. In that land and in that age, vri: ere they knew but little about pharmacy, of cassia was used to arrest many forms disease. So when in roy text we flnd Christ coming with garments that smell of cassia, | it suggests to me the God. healing f, Oh,” and curative power of the Son of you say, “now you have a superfluous ideal We are not sick Why do we want cassia? We u.« athletic. Our respiration ts per- feet. Our limbs are lithe, and on bright cool days we feel we could bound like a roe.” 1 beg to differ, my brother, from ih you. None of you can be better physical health than l am, and yet I must say we are all sick. I have taken the diagnosis of your case and have examined all the best authorities on the subjeot, and X have to toll you that you aro “full of wounds and bruises and putrefying sores whioh have not been bound up or mollified with ointment.” The marasmus of sin Is onus—the palsy, the dropsy, the leprosy.

All the leaves of this Bible are only so ninny prescriptions from the Divine Physician, written, not in Latin, like the prescriptions of earthly physicians, hut written in plain fool, English, so that a “man, though a need not err therein.” Thank God that the Saviour's smell of cassial Suppose a man were siok, and there was a phial on his mautelpleoe with medlolM he knew would cure him, and lie refused to take It, what would you say of him? He is a suicide. And what do you say of that man who, sick in sin, lias the healing medicine of God’s grace offered him and refuses to take it? If ho dies, he is a sui- aide. People talk as though God took a man and led him out to darkness and dentil, ns though He brought him up to the cliffs and then pushed him because off. Oh, God no! When a man is lost, it is not pushes him off; it is because he jumps off. In clden times a suicide was buried at the crossroads, aad the people wereacous- tomed to throw stones upon his grave, So it seems to me there may be at this time a man who is angels destroying God his soul, and as though the of wore here to bury him nt the point where the roads of life and death cross each other, throwing upon the grave the broken law and a great pile of mi.-Jmproved privileges, so that those going by may look at the fearful mound and learn what a suicide it is when an immortal soul, for whioh Jesus died, put itself out of the way. According to my text, He oomes “out of the ivory palaces.” You know, or if you do not know I will tell you now, that some of the palaces of olden time were adorned with ivory. Ahab and Solomon had their homes furnished with It. The tusks of African and Asiatic shapes, elephants and were there twisted into all manner of were stairs of ivory, and chairs of ivory, and tables of Ivory, and floors of Ivory, and pillars -of Ivory, and windows of Ivory, and fountains that dropped into basins of ivory, and rooms that had ceilings of ivory. Oh, white and overmastering beau- ty! Green tree branches sweeping the white curbs. Tapestry trailing the snowy floors. Brackets of light flashing on the lustrous surroundings. Silvery music rlp- pling on the beach of the arches. The mere thought of it almost stuns my brain, and you say: “Oh, if I could only have walked over snch floors! If I could have thrown myself In such a chair! If X could have beard the drip and dash of those fountains!” You shall have something bet- ter than that if you only let Christ lntro- duoe you. From that place He came, and to that place He proposes of to myrrh transport and aloes you. for His “garments smell and oassia out of the ivory palaces.” What a place heaven must bel The Tuileries of the Frenoh, the Windsor Castle of the Eng- lish, the Spanish Alhambra, the Russian Kremlin, are mere dungeons compared with it! Not so many castles ou either side the Rhine as on both sides of the river of God —the ivory palacesl One for the augels, insufferably bright, winged, tire eyed, tern- pest charioted; one for the martyrs, with blood red robes from under the altar; one for the King, the steps of His palace the orown of the church militant; one for the singers, who lead the 144,000; one for you, ransomed from sin; one for me, plucked from the burning. Ob, the ivory the palacesl To-day it seems to me as if windows of those palaces were illumined for some great victory, and I look and see, climbing the stairs of ivory and walking on floors of ivory, some whom we knew and loved on earth. Yes, I know them. There are father and mother, not eighty-two years and seventy-nine years, as when they left us, but blithe and young as when on their marriage day. And there are brothers and sisters, merrier than when we used to romp across the meadows together. The cough gone. The cancer cared. The erysipelas healed. The heart break over, Oh, how fair they iittle are in the ivory palaces! And your dear children that went out from you—Christ did not let one of them drop as He lifted them. He did not wrenoh one of them from you. No they went as from one they loved well to one whom they loved better. If I should take your little child and press its soft face against my rough cheek, I might keep it a little while, hut when you, the mother, oame along, it would struggle to go with you. And so you stood holding your dying child when Jesus passed by in the room, and the little one sprang out to greet Him. That is all. Your Christian dead did not go down Into the dust and the gravel and funeral the mud. Though it rained ail that day, and the water came up to the wheel’s hub as yon drove out to the cemetery, it made no difference to them, for they stepped from the home here to the home there, right into the All Ivory palaces. All is well with them. Is well. It Is npt a dead weight that you lift when you carry a Christian out. Jesus makes the bed up soft with her down velvet here promises, gently. and He says: “Pat very Put that head whioh will never ache again on this pillow of hallelujahs. Send up word that the procession is coming. Bing the bells. BIngl Open your loved gates, ye lvqry palacesl” And so your ones are there. They are Just ns oertainly there, having died In Christ, as that you are here. There is only one thing thing more they want. Indeed, there is one in heaven they it? have not got. They want it. What is Your company. But, oh, my brother, un¬ less you ohange your tack you cannot reach that harbor. You might as well take the Southern Paciflo Railroad, expecting in that direction to reach Toronto, as to and go on In the way some of you are going, yet expect to reach thi ivory palaces. Your loved ones are looking out of the windows of heaven now, and yet you seem to turn your back upon them, When entering I think of feel that place and I think feel of my it, I awkward. as sometimes when I have been exposed to the weather, and my shoes have been be- mired, and my coat Is soiled, and my hair is disheveled, and I stop fn front of some flue residence jvkere I have an errand. I feel not fit to go in as I am and sit among the guests. So some of ns feel about heaven. We need to be washed; we need to be rehabilitated before we go into the Ivory places. Eternal God, let the surges of Thy pardoning mercy roll over us. I want not only to wash my hands and my f»et; but, like some skilled diver, standing on the pier head, who leaps into the wave and comes up at a far distant point down, from where he went in, so I want to go and so I want to come up. O Jesus, wash mejin the waves of Thy salvationl And here I ask you to solve a mystery that has been oppressing me for thirty years. I have been asking it of doctors of divinity who have been studying theology half a century, and they have given me no satisfactory answer. I have turned over all the books In my library, but got nd solution to the question, and to-day I oome and ask you Christ for Induced an explanation. exchange By what logic palaces was of heaven for to the cruci- the ivory flxion agonies of earth?

Prof. Waterhouse F«nn Calling This Country “ ” Hereafter. The St. Louis Republic publishes with favorable editorial comment, an j article furnished by Professor Water- ; bouse of Washington University, on the subject of a proper caiye for this country, the chief points of which are herewith given: j “At present there is no proper name that distinctively describes this coun- try. Columbia and America apply to the whole western hemisphere. The 1 people of Cunada and Mexico, of Cen- trai and South America are all Ameri- cans and might Justly resent the pre- tension which claims that title exclu- sivaly for the inhabitants of the United States of North America. “ ‘The United States’ is an awkward expression. It is plural in form and singular in sense. It does not afford personal or adjective derivatives. United Statesmen and United States- ian are inadmlsslbly harsh. ‘United States of Nbrth America’ is an exact designation of this country. The first letters of these k’ords form the word ‘Usona.’ This term is agreeable to the ear, singular in number and precise in definition. Its introduction would sub¬ stitute for the incomplete United States an address so full and exact that no foreigner could misunderstand it. "Formerly the press indicated that its general information was gathered from the four quarters of the globe by placing at the heads of its columns ‘North, East, West, South.’ From the initials of these words some assert that the term 'news’ was derived. “It is facetiously said that United States stands for ‘Uncle Sam,’ and this burlesque personification has found a permanent place in our language. The baptismal names df Generals Grant and Jackson have been supplanted by the universally used names which ac¬ cident or valor gave. Physicists have invested the utterly inexpressive watt, volt, ohm and ampere with technical meanings and have introduced them Into the terminology of electrical sci¬ ence. “In fine, use can create and Qppu- larize new terms. Do pot the words ‘Usona’ and ‘Usonian’ so fully sub¬ serve the needs of exact address and grammatical convenience as to deserve a place in our language? The press can, if it will, effect the adoption of these new words.” Beauty Is Blood Deep. Clean Mood means a clean skin, No beauty without it.
