It is n strong vroy of putting the truth that n woman w ho seeks in worldly advantage, her chief enjoyment will come to disappointment and death. My friends, you ail want to be happy. You have had a great many recipes by which it is proposed togivo you satisfac tion???colid satisfaction. At limes you fed a thorough unrests You know as \v??-Il ns older jtcople what it is to l??c d-pressed. As dark shadows sometimes full upon the geography of the school girl as on the pngo of the spec tacled phihdopher. I have seen ns cloudy days in May as in November. Thero arc no deeper sighs breathed by the grandmother, than by the grandsughter. I correct the popular impression that people arc happier in childhood aud youth than they ever will bo figoin. If we live aright, the older the hap pier. The happiest woman that I over knew, was a Chiistian octogenarian; her hair white as w hite could be; the sunlight of heaven late In the afternoon gilding the peaks of snow. 1 have to say to a great many ol the young peo ple of this church that the most miserable timeyru are ever to hove is just now. you advance hi life, as you come out into Hie world and have your head and heart full of grad, honest, practical, Christian work, then you will know what it is to begin to be happy. There arc thole who would Imvo us believe that life is chasing thistle-down and grasping bubbler. We have not fotiud it so. To many it has been discovering diamonds larger .i . - i i i. <!...??? ..... than the Kohinoor and 1 think that ??? , will (Mitinuc to Increase until nothing short of the everlasting Jubilee of heaven will bo aide to < xprer* it. Ilorntio Grecnougli, at the close of the hardest life a man ever lives???the life of an American artist???wrote: ???I don't want to leave this world until I give some sign that, born by the grace of Hod in this land, 1 have found life to be a very cheerful thing, and not the dark and bitter tiling with whieli my early prospects were clouucd." Albert Haines, the good Christimi, known the world over, Mood in his pulpit in Philadelphia at seventy or eighty years of age and said: ???This world is so very attractive to me, I am t cry tetty I shall have to leave it." 1 know that Holomou said souio very dolor ous things about this world and throe times dteland: ???Vanity of vanities, all is vanity." I supp?? tc it was a reference to those times in bis cantr when his Ton wives n!nunt pestered the life (Utofliiml Hut I would rather turn to the description he has given of religion win ii l;c says in another place: ???Her ways lire ways efpieasautm rs, nudall her paths aro peace." It is reasonable to expect it will bo ho. # The longer the fruit hangs on the tree, the ripcr#hd more mellow it ought to grow. You plant one grain of corn and it will send Up a stalk with two curs, each having Vit) * groins, so that one grain planted will produce I,V00 grains. Aud ought not the Iniplnistu lien ot ii grain of Christian principle in i youthful soul develop into a large crop of uledimson earth and to a harvest of eternal Joy in lien veil ? Hear mo then while I dis count) upon some oftlio mistakes which young jtcuple make in regard to happiness, and p tint nut to the young women of this church what 1 consider to bo tho sources of complete satis faction. And in the first place I mlvbo you not to build your happiness upon more social p >si- lion, Persona at your ago, looking off up>m life arc spt to thinjc Unit if, by some stroke of whrt is called food luck, you could arrive iu mi elevated aud affluent |*o??itioii a little higher than that in which ti.ui has culled you to Five, you would bo completely happy. Iutlnito mistakes. Tho polaco tloor of Ahiistieriis is rid with the blood of Vashti's broken heart There have Iwen no inoro sealdiug tears wop than those which coursed tho cheeks of Joie phinc. If the sob of unhappy womanhood in the great cities could break through the tapes tried wall, thnt soh wpuld come along your rtrccts like tho simoou of tho desert. Borne- times I have heard in the rustling of the robes vu the city |??av*ineiit the.hiss of the adders that followed in the wake. You hnvo eonie out from your home nml you have looked up ut tho great house und covet a life under those arches, when perhaps ot that very tin until within that house there umy have boon tho wringing of hands, tho start of borrow aud the wry uginy of hell. 1 knew such ii one. Her father's home was plain, most of the people who collie there were plain; hut by a ohaugo in fortune, such as souicliincs comes, ii hand bad been ??-tiered tbnt led her Into t brilliant sphere. All the neighbors congrntulntcd her upm licr grand pros|wets; Imt what an ex- Orange! tin her side it was a heart lull of f icix-rmis impulse and affection, tin his side t was a soul dry ami withered ns the stubble of the field, tin her side it was n fathers lu??me * here God was honored nml the S ??h!> uli light I'irdtd the room* with the vory mirth of hijiwn. t>u his side it was a gorguous resi dence, and the coming < f mighty men to be entertain*d there; tut udhin it were revelry and godlessncss. Hardly hod tha orange bl *???- solus of the marriage fen. t lost their (Vagran.'* than the night of discontent began to cast lo ro Mid there its shadow.

TheBible sets before us the portraits oftiarah and Ilehecca, and Mi-Lug, Absalom's sister, and Jobs datigh tira, and rays: ???They wero fair to loot upcii." By outdoor exercise and by skillful arrangement of apparel, let women make the inrelves attractive. The sloven has oul;* one minion and thnt to excite our huthir and disgust. But alua, for those who depend tifcn personal charms for their happiness. Beauty is such a subtle thing ibdocs uot seem to depend upon facial proportions, or upon the snorkle of the eye, or upon the Hush of the cheek. You sometimes find it among irragib lnr feature*. It is the soul shining through the fa< e that make* olio beautiful. But nlus, for these who deiieud upon more person (harms. They will come to disappomlme and to n great fret. Thire ore so many dill** cicut opinions about what arc personal charms; and thvn sickness and trouble age do make such ravages. The poorest Oo< that o woman ever worships is her own face. The saddest sight in all the world is a woman who has built everything on good looks, whan the chat lus begin to vanish, oil, how they try to cover the wrinkles and hide tho rovagejof time, ^licn time with iron shod fcolstop3 on a face the hoof marks remain, and y< cm i.?? t hide them, i It is silly to try to hi tlnm. i think the most repulsive fool iu nil the v.erld Jr uu old fool. \V hy, rny friends, should you bo aslininc> to he getting old? It is a sign???it is prima facie evidence that you have behaved tolerably well'or you would not have lived to this time. The grandest thing, 1 think, is eternity, nml lin t is made up of countless years. When the Bilde wouhi sot forth tho attractiveness Jims Christ, it says: ???His linir was whi an snow." But when tho color goes from Bio cheek and the lustre from tho cyo and tiio spring from tho step and the gracefulness from the gait, alas lor those who have built their time and their oternity ujm>u good looks. But all the passago ot ycurs cannot take out of ono'a face benignity and kindness and patsiou and faith. Culture your heart and you culture your face. Tho brightest plory halls id bar ??? ??bvtrh)|*vi t ourselvsw, to despise or all ???. -^uty in others. Wh?? a God gives it ???LSSl.L?

In tiio last w wcuuded soldiers como to I???hiladelpliii night and coino unheralded and they had to ext( inpi-rino a hospital for them aud tho Chris tian women of my church and of other churches went out thnt night to tnko care of tho poor wounded follows. That night I saw a Christian woman go through tho wards of tho hospital, her hIccvcs rolled up, ready tor haid work, her hair dishevelled in the excite ment of tho hour. Her fnco was plain, very plain, hut after the wounds wero washed an'* the new blindage.-! put round the splinter.-; Blubs and the exhausted hoy foil off???into bis first pleiiKiml sleep, sho imt tier hand blow, and he started nml said in his dream ???Oh, I thought an nngoi touched me," There may have been no classic olcgauco in tli? Icntiiros of Mrs. Harris, who cumo into tho hospital after the ???seven days??? awful fight before Bicbmoml, us sho nut down by founded drummer boy und heard him soli quixe: ???A ball through my body and my i*cor mother will never again see her b-*y, What u pity it is."

But 1 would liko to Imvo you tell her h- much l suffered???yes, 1 would liko you to do that, for sho would foci so for mv. Hold my hand while 1 die." Thero limy have been no claiftic elrguuco in her features, but all tho hospitals of Harrison's Landing and Fortress Monroe would have agreed Unit she was beau tilul, and if any rough man in oil that war* luid insulted her, sumo wounded soldier would Imvo lcajied from his couch on hi* best foot, and struck him dead with a crutch. Again, I advise you not to dopoud fur y< happiness upon the Batteries of men. it is a poor compliment to your sex that amnfcny men leel obliged in your itrcscuce to oiler uiiunau- ing compliment*. Men cnpablo of elegant and daborato conversation elsewhere some times feel called * unon at the door of a draw ing non) to drop their common souse and t< iftlc out sick* ii ing llnttcrh's. They say things about your dress ami about your afipcaranca that you know, and they know are false. They ??av you are an angel, you know you are net. Determined to toll the truth iu office and store and shop, thev consider it honora ble to lie to a woman. Tho same thing that they (old you ou this sido of the drawing roam time miuutcs ago they said to some one on the other side of tho drawing room. Oh, let no one trample on your self-respect. Th meanest thing oil which a woman cau build her happiness is tho Batteries of men. Again I clinrge you not to depend for Imp pines* Upon (he disci pie* hip of fashion, pome men ff 0 J ,,9t os proud or being out of the fashion as others lira of being in it. I have seen men as vain of their old-fashioned ???ut and tludr eccentric Imt as your brainless fop is proud of bis dangling fooleries. Fash ion sometimes makes a reasonable demand of , and then we ought to yield to it. The dairies of the field Imvu their fashion of color nd leaf; the honeysuckles have their fashion f ear-drop, and the siiosvffnkes Bung out of the winter heaven* have their fashion of ox- iiuisitcucss. Alter the summer shower the sky weds tho earth with ring of raiubow. And I do not think wo have a right to despiso all the elegancies and fashions of this world, especially it they make reasonable demand* upon us; but the disci pics hip and worship of fashion is death to the body ami death to the ???? ul. 1 am glud the world if improving, book nt the fufliiou platen of the 17lh and Pith ecu- turii* and you will find that tho worhl is not so extravagant and extraordinary now a* it was then. All the inui vollmi* thing* that thn grandaughter will do will tiovtr equal that done by the einmlmothcr. Go still farther hack to the Bible times and you liml'llmt in th*-o times fashion wielded a more terrible sceptre. Y*.u have only to turn to the third chapter of lsnii h to i cu??l ???Because tho daugh- lets rf Zion ere hearty amt walk with stretched forth neck* and wanton eyes, walk- ire and mincing ns they go, und making a tinkling with their loct; m that day tho Lord will lake away the bravery of their tinkling ornament* ub-nt their foot and their cauls and their n-nnd tires liko the nmon, the cluius and the bracelets nml the mufflers, the bon nets and the ornament* of the legs, aud tho htadlnmlc, ai d the tablets, and. tho earrings, the ritifc* and the unse-jewal*. the changeable mils ol apparel und the mantles and tho wim* pit* and the crisping pins, the glasses aud tho fine linen, the hoods and tho' veils." Only think **f a woman having all that ou? I aim glad that the world is getting better, aud that latlikm which has dominated iu tho world so luinmtsly in ether days has for a little time, for a little degree at eny rate, relaxed it* en ergies. Oh, tin danger of the disoiploshin of faohiout All the ???Mendor* and the extrava- cimzn of this world dyed iuto your robe and tlui g over your shcufdcr canuot wrap peace an und jour heart for a single moment.

Tl-c home may be very humble, the hat may be very plain, the frock may be very coarse, but the halo of heaveu settles in the jo tu when aho weers it, and the faintest touch of tho resurrection angel will change thet garment into raiment exceeding white, to : * i o Biller on earth Cwuld whiten it. 1 ot n o to><u, young women, to soy that this w?? rid eschot make you happy. 1 know it is u Bright world, with a glorious sunshiu* ai d i?? rivers, and fire-worked sunset, and bird orchestra, and the darkest cave ha?? its cmlaU end the wmthiest wave iu fium- ???wionth, Rfid tba coldest midnight its llimio; aurora.

But there s a pearl of price untold Which never can be bought with gold, Ob, that's the pearl for rne.???*- Thc snow was very deep and It was still falling rnjddljpwhen in the first year of my Christian ministry, I hastened to boo a young woman die. It was a very humble home. 8bo was an orphan; her father bad been ship wrecked on the banks of Newfoundland; she had corned her own living. As I entered tho room I saw nothing attractive???no picture*, no topcitrr, not even a cushioned chair. The snow on tne window cnai than the check of that d >rgc majesty of soul and faith in God had /given h<r a matchless beauty, nud the sculptor who could hnvc caught the outlines of thoao feat ures and frozen them into stone would have made himself immortal; with her large, brown eyes she looked calmly into the great eternity. 1 sat down by her bedside and said: ???Now, tell me nil your troubles nud sorrows and struggles and doubts." She replied: ???I have no doubts or struggles. It is all plain t-> inc. Je*us has smoothed tho way for hiy feet. I wish when you go to your pulpit next Sun- iluy, you would tell tho young peoplo that re ligion will make them happy. <0, death, where is thy Ming.??? Mr. Tannage, I wonder f this i.* not the bliss of dying." I said, ???Yes, I think it must be." I lingerod around the ucb. The tun was setting and her sister lighted a candle. Hhe lighted tho candle for me. The dying girl, the duwu. of heaven in her face, needed no candle.* I rose to go, and she said: ???I thank you for coming. .Good night! When wo meet again it will be iu heaven???in heaven. Goodnight! Goodnight!" For her it wus good night to toars, good night to poverty, good night to death; but when tho sun rose again it was good morning. The light of another da/ had burst iu upon her soul. Good morning I The angola were sing ing her welcome home, and tho baud of Christ was putting upon her brow a garlaud. Good morning! Her sun rising. Her palm waving. Her spirit exulting before the throne of God. Good morning! Good morning! Tho white lily of poor Margaret's chock had blu*Iied into the rose of health immortal, and tho snows through which wo carried her to tho country graveyard wero symbols of that robe vhieb she wears so white that no fuller on artli could whiten it.
