LAST SUNDAY'S SUBJECT. olden Texts "I Will Arise and Go to " 1117 Father and Will gay to illmn , I Father I Ilavo Sinned Agalnet IIcavcn. " _ i h HERE IS NOTHing - ing like hunger to take the energy out of a man. A hungry - gry , 'man ' can toll neither with pen nor hand nor foot There has been many an army defeated - feated , not so much for lack of ammuni- tion as for lack of Ibread. It was that fact that took the flrc out of this young man of the text. Storm and exposure will wear out any Znan's life in time , but hunger makes quick work. The most awful cry ever heard on earth is the cry for bread. A o traveler tells us that in Asia Minor there are trees which bear fruit looking - ing very much like the long bean of our : time. It : s called the carob. Once in a ! while the people , reduced to destitution - tion , would eat these carobs , but generally - erally the carobs , the beans spoken of , R 1 sere in the text , were thrown only to the swine , and they crunched them a 'with ' great avidity. But this young r ; loran of my text could not even get , # them without stealing them. So one V day , amid the swine troughs , he begins 'i to soliloquize. He says : "These are no clothes for a rich man's son to wear ; J this is no kind of business for a Jew to be engaged in , feeding swine ; I'll go home ; I'll go home ; I will arise and go to my father. " I know there are a great many people who try to throw a fascination - nation ; a romance , a halo about sin ; but notwithstanding all that Lord Byroa and George Sand have said in regard to it , it is a mean , low , contemptible - temptible business , and putting food and fodder into the troughs of a herd of iniquities that root and wallow in the soul of man is a very poor business' for men and women intended to be sons and daughters of the Lord Almighty , and when this young man resolved to go home it was a very wise thing for him to do , and the only question is , iwhether we will follow him. Satan 1 promises large wages if we will serve him ; but he clothes his victims with bags , and he pinches them with hunger , end when they start out to do better he sets after them all the bloodhounds of hell. Satan comes to us to-day and he promises all luxuries and emoluments - ments if we will only serve him. Liar , down with thee to the pit ! "The wages of sin is death. " Oh ! the young man of the text was wise when he uttered the resolution , "I will arise and go to imy father. " In the time of Mary , the persecutor , a persecutor came to a Christian woman who had hidden in her house for the Lord's sake one of . Christ's servants , and the persecutor Bald : "Where is that heretic ? " The Christian woman said : "You open that trunk and you will see the heretic. " Fhe persecutor opened the trunk , and on the top of the linen of the trunk he saw a glass. He said : "There is no heretic here. " "Ah ! " she said , "you look in the glass and you will see the ieretic. " ! As I take up the mirror of God's Word 1 to-day , I would that , instead of seeing the prodigal of the text we might see ourselvesourwantourwan - iering , our sin , our lost condition , so that we might be as wise as this young man was and say , "I will arise and go to my father. " The resolution of this text was formed in a disgust at his present circumstances. If this young . ; Sian had been by his employer set to culturing flowers , or training vines ever an arbor , or keeping an account of the pork market , or.overseeing other laborers , he would not have thought of doing home. If he had had his pockets full of money , it he had been able to say , "I have a thousand dollars now of y own , what's the use of my going back to apologize to the old man ? why , he would put me on the limits ; he ( would not have going on around the old place such conduct as I have been engaged in ; I won't go home ; there is ao reason why I should go home ; I have plenty of money , plenty of pleasant - ant surroundings ; why should I go home ? " Ah ! it was his pauperism , it ryas his beggary. He had to go home. Some man comes and says to me : "Why do you talk about the ruined state of the human soul ? Why don't you speak about the progress of the nineteenth century , and talk of something more exhilarating ? " It is for this reason : ! A man never wllhts the Gospel until Ole realizes he is in a famine-struck state. Suppose I should come to you :1 : ! n your home , and you are in good , and I should begin sound , robust health , - gin to talk about medicines , and about how much better this medicine is than that , and some other medicine than 1 some other medicine , and talk about this physician and that physician. After - ter awhile you would get tired , ani you would say : "I don't want to hear about medicines. Why do you talk to me of physicians ? I never have a doctor. " $ ut suppose I come into your house and I find you severely sick , agd I know the medicines that will cure you , and I know the physician that is skillful enough to meet your case. You say : "Bring on that medicine , bring on that ! physician. I am terribly sick , and I . want help. " If I come to you and you 1 feel you are all right in body , and all right in mind , and all right in soul , x you have need of nothing , but suppose I have persuaded you that the leprosy 1 of sin is upon you , the worst of all sickness : Oh ! then you say , "Bring me that balm of the Gospel , bring me that divine medicament , bring me Jesus Christ. " "But , " pays some one.in . the T ' , ( M _ 4 audience , "how do you know that 'o are in a ruined condltlon.by sin ? " Well , I can prove it in two ways , and you may have your choice. I can prove it either by the statements of men or by the statement of God. Which shall it be ? You say , "Let us have the statement - ment of God. " Well , he says in one place , "The heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked , " He says In another place , "What is a man that he should be clean ? and he which is born of woman , that he should be righteous ? " He says in another place. "There is none that doeth good-no , not one. " He says in another place , "As by one man sin entered into the world , and death by sin , and so death passed upon all men , for that all had sinned" "Well , " you say , "I am willing - ing to acknowledge that , but why should I take the particular rescue that you propose ? " This is the reason : "Ex- cept a man be born again he cannot see the kingdom of God. " This is the reason - son : "There is one name given under heaven among men whereby they may be saved. " Then there are a thousand voices here ready to say : "Well , I am ready to accept this help of the Gospel ; I would like to have this divine cure ; how shall I go to work ? " Let me say that a mere whim , an undefined longing - ing amounts to nothing. You must have a stout , a tremendous resolution like this young man of the text when he said , "i : will arise and go to my father. " "Oh , says some man , "how do I know my father wants me ? how do I know , if I go back , I would be received ? " "Oh , says some man , "you don't know where I have been ; you don't know how far I have wandered ; you wouldn't talk that way to me if you knew all the iniquities I have com- mitted. " What is that flutter among the angels of God ? What is that horseman running with quick dispatch ? It is news , it is news ! Christ has found the lost. Nor angels can their joy contain , But kindle with new fire. The sinner lost is found , they sing , And strike the sounding lyre. When Napoleon talked of going into Italy , they said , "You can't get there. If you know what the Alps were you wouldn't talk about it or think about it. You can't get your ammunition wagons over the Alps. " Then Napoleon rose in his stirrups , and , waving his hand toward the mountains , he said , "There shall be no Alps ! " That wonderful - derful pass was laid out which has been the wonderment of all the years since -the wonderment of all engineers. And you tell me there are such mountains - tains of sin between your soul and God , there is no mercy. Then I 'see ' Christ waving his hand toward the mountains. I hear him say , "I will come over the mountains of thy sin and the hills of thine iniquity. " There shall be no Pyrenees ; there shall bo no Alps. Again : I notice that this resolution of the young man of my text ° was founded - ed in sorrow at his misbehavior. It was not mere physical plight. It was grief that he had so maltreated his father. It is a sad thing after a father has done everything for a child to have that child ungrateful. How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is , To have a thankless child. That Is Shakespeare. "A foolish son is the. heaviness of his mother. " That is the Bible. Well , my friends , have not some of us been cruel prodigals ? Have we not maltreated our Father ? And such a Father ! Three times a day has he fed thee. He has poured sunlight - light into thy day and at night kindled up all the street-lamps of heaven. With what varieties of apparel he hath clothed- thee for the seasons. Whose eye watches thee ? Whose hand defends thee ? Whose heart sympathizes with thee ? Who gave you your children ? Who is guarding your loved ones departed - parted ? Such -father ! So loving , so kind. If' he had been a stranger ; if he had forsaken us ; if he had flagellated us ; if he had pounded us and turned us out of doors on the commons , it would not have been so wonderful- our treatement of him ; but' he is a Father , so loving , so kind , and yet how many of us for our wanderings have never apologized' If we say anything that hurts our friend's feelings , if we do anything that hurts feelings of those in 'whom we are interested , how quickly - ly we apologize ! We can scarcely wait until we get pen and paper to write a letter of apology. How easy it is for any one who is intelligent , right-heart- ed , to write an apology , or make an 1 apology ! We apologize for wrongs done to our fellows , but some of us per- haps'have committed ten thousand I times ten thousand wrongs against God and never apologized. I remark still further , that this resolution - lution of the text was founded in a feeling - ing of home-sickness. I do not know ! how long this young man , how many months , how many years he had been 1 away from his father's house , but there Is something about the reading of my text that makes me think he was home- sick. Some of you know what that feel- lug is. Far away from home sometimes - times , surrounded by everything bright and pleasant-plenty of friends-you have said : "el would give the world to be home to-night" Well , this young man was homesick for his father's house. I have no doubt when he thought of his father's house he said : "Now , perhaps father may not be living. " We read nothing in this story-this parable life-we read -founded on every-day nothing about the mother. It says nothing about going home to her. I think she was dead. I think she had died of a broken heart at his wanderings - ings , or , perhaps he had gone into dissipation - sipation from the fact that he could not remember a loving = and sympathetic mother. A man never gets over having lost his mother. Nothing said about her , but he is homesick for his father'si i house. He thought he would just like -to go and walk around the old place. . He thought ho would just like to go and see if things were as they used to bs Many a man after having been offf e long while has gone home and knocked at the door , and a stranger has come. It is the old homestead , but a stranger comes to the door. He finds out that father Is gone , and mother is gone , and brothers and sisters all gone. I think this young man of the text said to himself - self , "Perhaps father may be dead. " Still , he starts to find out. He is homesick. Are there any here to-day homesick for God , homesick for heaven - en ? A sailor , after having been long on the sea , returned to his father's house , and his mother tried to persuade him not to go away again. She said , "Now , you had better stay at home. Don't go away. We don't want you to go. You will have it a great deal better - ter here. " But it made him angry. The night before he went away again to sea , he heard his mother praying in the next room , and that made him more angry. He went far out on the sea , and a storm came up and he was ordered to very perilous duty , and he ran up the ratlines , and amid the shroucis of the ship he heard the voice that he had heard in the next room. He tried to whistle it off , he tried to rally his courage - age ; but he could not silence the voice he had heard in the next room , and i there in the storml and darkness ho said , " 0 Lord ! what a wretch I have been ? What a wretch I am ! Help me just now , Lord God. " And I thought in this assemblage to-day there may be some who may have the memory of a father's petition , or a mother's prayer pressing mightily upon the soul , and that this hour they may make the same , resolution I find in my text , saying - ing : " 1 will arise and go to my father" A lad at Liverpool went out to bathe ; went out into the sea , went out too far , got beyond his depth and he floated far away. A ship bound for Dublin came along and took. him on hoard. Sailors are generally very generous fellows , and one gave him a cap , and another gave him a jacket , and another gave him shoes. A gentleman passing along on the beach at Liverpool found the lad's clothes and took them home , and the father was heartbroken , the mother was heartbroken , at the loss of their child. They had heard nothing from him day after day , and they ordered the usual mourning for the sad event. But the lad took ship from Dublin and arrived in Liverpool the very day the mourning arrived. He knocked at the door , the father was overjoyed and the mother was overjoyed at the return of their lost son. Oh , my friends , have you waded out too deep ? Have you waded down into sin ? Have you waded from the shore ? Will you come back ? When you come back will you come in the rags of your sin , or will you come robed in the Savior's righteousness ? I believe the latter. Go home to your God i today. He is waiting for you. Go home ! But I remark the characteristic of this resolution was , it was immediately put into execution. The context says "he arose and came to his father. " The trouble in nine hundred and ninety- nine times out of a thousand is that our resolutions amount to nothing , because we make them for some distant time. If I resolve to become a Christian next year , that amounts to nothing at all. If I resolve to become a Christian tomorrow - morrow , that amounts to nothing at all. If I resolve at the service .this day to become a Christian , that amounts to nothing at all. If I resolve after I go home to-day to yield my heart to God , that amounts to nothing at all. The only kind of resolution that amounts to anything is the resolution that is immediately put into execution. There is a man who had the typhoid fever , he said : "Oh ! if I could get over this terrible - rible disease ; if this fever should depart - part ; if I could be restored to health , I would all the rest of my life serve God. " The fever departed. He got well enough to walk around the block. He got well enough to go over to business. He is well to-day-as well as he ever was. Where is the broken vow ? Not Far Out of the Way. A young woman from out of town went to a tea among the literary set last week , says the Washington Post. She was introduced to a whole'rcom- ful of people , and afterwards she went about trying to call everybody by his right name. She remembered an amazing - ing number of names. but when she came to one distinguished looking man she paused in despair. "I know everybody else's name , she said , "but when I try to remember yours I am completely at sea. " "Then you're not far wrong , " said the distinguished looking man , "my name is Atwater. " !

REPORTS OF OURS INCREASED DEMAND. , Tire New York National lconomnlst Ceta Democratic fl mros lreforo the 1 Rays of Truth-How Bennett Captured the Markets of the World. r' . , f11 s. . t q = a A l J r % , ate. , , 1 : , r Free tradhrs have been very joyful over an increase in our exports of American manufactured goods. As long as this is not brought about by the sacrifice of our home market it is , indeed - deed , an encouraging sign. Last year , 7595 , we sold in foreign countries $23.- 35i,802 more of our manufactures than in 1594. This includes an increase of 1$14,249,971 in our exports of mineral oil , refined or manufactured , leaving only $9,101,831 of increase for all other - er manufactures exported. But the larger value of our mineral oil exports has been of no value to American labor because it represented shipments of 42- [ 14,075 gallons less oil in 1895 than in 1514 The refining or manufacturing of 42,000,000 gallons less oil for export has deprived labor of work. The increase b : value merely represents an increase in the profits of the oil combine , which advanced the price of oil so sharply last year. It did no good to American labor. Our labor suffered through having - ing less oil to refine or manufacture , anti our labor also suffered through having to pay more money for oil when earning lower wages. Excepting the oil exports , we have $9,101,831 worth more of American manufactures shipped abroad last year than in 1894. Against this we must set the increase in our imports of foreign manufactures , thus leaving the follow- lug exhibit : Exports of Manufactures : Total increase , 1895 over 1894 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $23,351,802 Mineral oil , refined or manufactured - factured , decrease in quantity - tity , gal..42,114,075 Increase in value. . . . . . . 14,249,971 Increase in all other manufactured - factured exports. . . . . . . . . . $ 9,101,831 Increase in all manufactured imports . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 92,613,090 Net loss to the United States . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $83,511,59 If it is advantageous to us to increase - crease our exports by $9,101,531 , it must be correspondingly more advantageous - tageous to the foreign countries that increased their exports by $92,613,090. Deducting our small gain from their greater gain leaves a net loss of $ S3 ; 511,259 to our manufacturers through the capture of our markets by foreigners - ers , over and above the amount of their markets that we captured. It should be noted that our manufactured - factured exports do not include such a product as flour , which is certainly equally as much a "manufacture" as oil. In 1894 we exported flour worth $58,924,706 , but in 1595 only $50,292 , 8S6 , a decrease of $8,631,820. Had this manufactured product been included in the demccratic treasury statement , our total excess of exports last year would have dwindled down to $470,011 , as compared with increased imports of manufactures worth $92,613,090. It is just as well to be more thoroughly ex- pianatory than the free traders are. Senator Pritchard for Protection.

During the last year of the McKinley law the imports of the same farm products were of the value of $51,414,844.
