Out of so dark a night did thcro over dawn
so bright n morning!
I learn in the ilrst place from this subject
how tioublu develops character. It was be
reavement, poverty nnd oxilo thnt developed,
Illustrated and nnnouueed to all nges the
mbllmity of Ruth's chnrncter. Thnt Is n
very unfortunate mini who has no troublo.
It wns sorrow that made John Utinynn tho
letter dreamer, and Dr. Young tho better
oet, nnd O'Connell tho better orator, nnd
Bishop Hntl tho liettcr preacher, nnd Ilnviv
lock tho hotter soldier, nnd Kitto tho better
Micyclopaxllst, and Hutb tho bettor daughter-in-law
1 ouco askod nn aged man in regard to his
pastor, who wns a very brilliant mom
"Why Is it that your pastor, so very bril
liant, seems to have so llttlo heart and ten
derness In his sermons!" "Well," ho re
plied, "the reason is our pastor has novor
had any trouble. When misfortune coma
upon him, his stylo will bo different" After
awhllo tho Lord took n child out of that
pastor's hotiso, und though tho preacher was
just as brilliant ns ho wns before, oh, tho
warmth, tho tenderness of his discourse.
j Tho fact is that trouble Is a great educator.
I You seo sometimes it musician sit down at nn
instrument, nnd his execution is cold aild
formal und unfeeling. Tho reason Is that all
his lifo ho has lcen prospered, itut let mls-
J fortuno or Iwroavemcnt coiuo to that man,
1 and ho sits down nt an instrument, and you
j discover tho pathos in tho ilrst sweep of tho
koys.
Misfortune nnd trials nro groat educators.
A young dot-tor comes Into a sick room
where thero is u dying chlliL Perhaps ho is
very rough in his prescription, and very
rough in his manner, and very rough in
tho fooling of tho pulse, nnd rough

question, but years roll on, nnd thcro ha
been ono dead In his own house; nnd now h
comes Into tho sick room, nnd with tearful
oyo ho looks at tho dying child, and ho says:
"Oh, how this reminds mo of my Charllol"
Trouble, tho great educator. Sorrow, I seo
its touch in tho grandest pulntfng, 1 hear Its
tremor In tho sweettwt song; 1 feel its power
in tho mightiest argument.

Due- -nlisouitely one. 1 suppose when Naomi's

money and all things wont well, they had
many cnls-i. nut I tupjioso tlmt after her

III. Again: 1 loam from this subject thnt
paths which oien In hardship nnd darkness
ofteu como out in places of Joy When Huth
stnrtttl from Monb townrd Jerusalem to go
nlong with her mother-in-lnw, 1 suppose tho
txmplosnld: "Uh, what a foolish croattiro to
go nwny from her father's house, to go off
with n oor old woman toward the land of
Judah I Thoy won't II vo to get across thn
desert They will be drowned In tho n, or
tho Jackals of tho wilderness will destroy
them." It was 11 very dark morning when
Huth started off with Naomi, but liehold iior
in my text in tho harvest Hold of Donz, to ho
tilllaucod to ono of tho lords of tho laud nnd
become ono of tho grandmothers of Jesus
Christ, tho Ird of glory And so It often
is thnt n path which starts very darkly ends
very brightly
When you started out for heaven, oh, how
dark was tho hour of conviction how Blnnl
thundered, and devils tormented, nnd tho
darkness thlckeuedl All tho slus of your
llfo pounced upon you, nnd it wns tho dark
est hour you ever saw when you first found
out your sins. After awhllo you went Into
the harvest Held of God's mercy; you liegnn
to glean In tho fluids of divine promise, und
you hnd moro sheaves than you could carry
as the voice of God addressed you, saying
Messed Is tho mnn whoso transgressions
nro forgiven nnd whose sins nro covered." A
very dark starting in conviction, a very
bright ending In tho pardon mid tho hopo
and the triumph of tho Gosiel.
80, very often in our worldly business or
hi our spiritual career, wo start off 011 it very
dark pntli. Wo must go. Tho flesh may
shrink back, but tlioro is a voice within, or n
volco from above, saying: "You must go;"
and wo have to drink tho gall, and wo have
to carry tho cross, and wo havo to trnvcrso
tho desert, and wo aro pounded and flailed
of misrepresentation and abuse, and wo havo
to urgo our way through ten thousand ob
stacles that must bo slain by our own right
arm. Wo havo to ford tho river, wo havo to
climb tho mountain, we have to storm tho
castlo; but, blessed In God, tho day of root
and roward will como. On tho tip top of tho
captured battlements wo will shout tho vic
tory, if not in this world, then In that world
wncro thcro is no gall to drink, no burdens to
carry, no battles to fight. How do 1 know it!
Know itl I know it bocnuso God says so.
"Thoy shall hunger no more, neither thirst
any more, neither shall tho sun lighton them,
nor nny heat, for tlio luml which Is In tho
midst of tho throuo shall load them to living
fountains of water, and God shall wipo all
tears from their eyes."
It was very hard for Noah to enduro tho
hcofllng of tho people in IiIh day, whllo ho
was trying to build tho nrk, and was every
morning quizzed nliout his old boat thnt
would never Ikj of any practical uso, but
when the deluge came, and tho tops of tho
mountains disappcurod liko tho backs of sen
monsters, ami tho elements, lashed up in
fury, clapped their hands over n drowned
world, then Noah in the nrk rejoiced in lib
own safety anil In tho safety of his family,
nnd looked nut on the w rock of n ruined earth.
Christ, hounded of iorsecutor8, denied n
pillow, wdrse maltreated than tho thieves
on either sidoof the cross, human huto smack
ing its lips in satisfaction after it hud been
draining his last drop of blood, the sheeted
dead bursting from tho sepulchers nt his
crucifixion. Tell 1110, 0 Uetlisemnno nnd
Golgotha I wero thero ever darker times than
tliOMji Liko tlio booming of tho midnight
sea ngaiiixt tho rock, tho surges of Christ's
anguish boat against tho gates of eternity, to
bo echoed back by all tho thrones of heaven
nnd nil tho dungeons of hell. Hut thn day of
reward coma for Christ- all the Mmp and
dominion of this world nro to bo hung on his
throne, uncrowuiMl heads nro to bow tieforo
him on whoso heud nro many crowns, and all
tho celestial worship is to como up at his
foot, like tho humming of tho forest, liko tho
rushing of tho waters, liko tho thundering of
tho sens, while all heaven, rising on tliolr
thrones, beat tlmo with their scepters. "Hallo
lujoh, fortno Lord God omnipotent relgnethl
Hallelujah, tho kingdoms of this world havo
become tho kingdoms of our lrd Jusus
Christl"
That song of love, now low and far,
Kro long shall swell from star to star;
That light, tho breaking day which tips
Tho golden spired Aiiocnlypso.
IV Again 1 learn from my subject thnt
events which seem to bo most insignificant
may lo momentous. Can you imagine any
thing moro unlmKrtant thiui tho coming of
n poor woman from Moab to Judah! Can
you Imagine anything more trivial than tho
fact that this Huth just happened to alight
as they say Just hnpjiened to alight on that
field of iloaz' Yet all nges, all generations,
huvo nn interest in the fact that sho was to
U'conio an ancestor of the Lord Josus Christ,
and all nations nnd kingdoms must look at
that one little Incident with a thrill of tin
speiikatilo and eternul satisfaction. Ko It is
in your history and mliio, events that you
thought of no nnportanco at all havo been of
very great moment. That casual couvcita
tion, that accidental meotlug you did not
think of it again lor a long while, but how it
chuuged all the pluuo of your lifol
It seemed to to of no imH)rtanco that
Jiitinl Invented nnio instruments of inusia,
calling them narp ami organ, but thoy wero
tho Introduction of all the wurld siuuutrolsy;
and a you Invar the vibration of a stringed
Instrument, evtu After the lingers havo been
taken away fiom it, soul) music now of Into
nnd drum mid cornet is only tlio long con
tinued strains of Jutuil's tuirp and Jtibal's
orgnn. It seemed to Imj a mutter of very lit
tle importance that Tubal Cain learned tho
uao of oppor and iron, but that rude
foundry of uuclent du)s has Its echo In the
rattle of lllruilngliani machinery, nnd tho
roar nnd bang of factories on tho Mcrrimno.
It soumed to t a mutter of uo iinortuucn
that Luther foutid a Ulblo In a mowutory;
but ns he oenetl thnt (tibia, nnd the
hrnss bound lid fell hack, thoy Jarred every
thing from Him Vntlenn to tho furthest
convent In Ocrnmny, nnd tlio nulling of tlio
wormed lenve was tho sound of Hit wing of
tho nngcl of the deformation. It seemed to
bo n mnttei of no liiiportaueo thnt n woman,
whoso name has been forgotten, dropped n
trnct In tho wny of n very bnd mnn by tho
linmo of Richard itnxter lie picked up tho
trnct nnd rend It, nnd it was tho moans of his
salvation.
In nfter days that man wrote n hook called
"Tho Call to the Unconverted," that wns the
moan of bringing n multitude lo Clod, among
others Philip Doddridge. I'hlllp Doddridge
wrote n txiok ealletl "Tho I lino and Prognw
of Religion,'' which lias brought thoitsnuds
nnd lens of thousands Into tho kingdom of
Ood, nmiing others tho great Wlllierform

moans of brt nglng n great mull it udo to Christ,
ntiiong others Ix-gh Hlehuiouil legh llk'li

to bo most momentous The fact thnt you

1 know there Is 11 sickly sentimentality 011
this subject. In some families there nro T
sons of 110 practical service to the household
1 or community, and though there are so
many woes all around about them In tho
world thoy siond their tlmo languishing
over u now pattern, ot bursting Into tears at
midnight ovur tho story of somo lovor who
shot himself I Thoy would not deign to look
nt Huth carrying back the barloy on hoi
way homo to her mother-iu-lnw, Nnoml. All
1 this fastidiousness may stvin to do very well
whllo thoy aru under the shelter of their
father's house, but when the sharp winter of
' misfortune comes what of those butterflies!
1 Persons under indulgent uirentago tuny got
j tlion tlioinsolvo habits of Indolence, but
when thoy como out Into practical llfo their
soul will recoil with disgust nnd chagrin.
They will fool In their hearts what tho oet
to severely satirized when hoanldi
Folks nro so awkward, tilings no Impolite,
They're elegantly (wined from morning until
night
Through that gate of Indolence how many
men nnd women havo marched, useless on
earth, to a destroy od eternity I Hpinola said
to Hlr Uoraco Vcro "Of what did your
brother die!" "Of having nothing to do,"
was the answer "Ah," said Bplnola, "that's
enough to kill nny general of ua." Oil, can It
bo possihlo in this world, where thero Is so
much suffering to bo allovlatod, so much
dnrkhcH lo bo enlightened, and so tnauy
burden lo bocurriod, that then is any person
who cannot llud anything to do!
Mma do Huuil did a world of work In her
tlmo, nml one day, while sho was Boated
amid instruments of iimsio, nil of which sho
had mastered, and amid manuscript books
which site had written, some one said to hen
"How do you Hnd time to attend to all these
things!" "Oh," sho replied, "those nro not
tho things I nin proud ot My chief boast is
in the fact thai 1 havo seventeen trades, by
nuy one of which 1 could mako n livelihood
if necessary " And if in secular spheres there
Is so much to be done. In spiritual work how
vast the Heidi Wu want moro Abigails, moro
Hannahs, more Itoheccas, moro Marys, moro
Deborahs, consecrated -liody, mind, soul to
tho 1ord who bought them.
VL Once moro I learn from my subject
tho value of gleaning
Huth going luto that hnrvctt flold might
havo said "There is it straw, and tlioro is n
straw, but what Is a straw I can't get nny
barloy for myself or my mother In-law out
of these sopurnto straws." Not so said beau
tiful Huth BI10 gathered two straws and
sho put them together, and more straws, 1111
til sho got enough to make a sheaf, and
another, and another, nnd another, und then
she brought them all together, and sho
. threshed them out, and sho hud at) ephiih of

in this day who say they are so busy thoy
