Sty kouI, bo on tliy guard) Ton thousand foe arlm And Jiotta of uln aro prcmlng hard To draw ttico from tho title. Hi subject was "A Poisoned Dinner," and Jhlt text II Kings Iv, 40: "Bo thoy poured out Tor tho men to cat. And It enmo to pan, at thoy wero eating of tho pottngo, that thoy cried out, and said, 0 thou man of Ood, thcro la death in tho pot. And they could not oat thereof." Ellsha had gono down to locturo to the ttudonta In tho theological seminary at 011 feaL Ho found tho students very hungry, as students aro apt to Us. It is very seldom tho world makes largo provision for thco who givo themselves to Intellectual tolL In order that theso students may bo prepared to hear what Ellshn says, ho first feeds their hunger. Ho know very well It Is useless to talk, to preach, to locturo, to arguo with hungry men. Bo ElUha, recognizing this common sonso principle, which every Christian ought to recognize, sends sorvants out to got food for theso hungry students. Thoy pick upnotno good,- healthful herbs, but thoy happen to pick up also tamo coloqulntldn, n bitter, poi sonous, dcathful herb. Thoy bring nil theso herbs, they put them Into tho boiling pot, they stir them up, and then n jvortlon of this food Is brought to tho students and their pro fessors. Seated at tho tnblo, ono of tho hun gry students begins immediately to eat, and ho happens to get hold of somo of tho colo (luiutida. Ho know it by tho taste. Ho cries out: "Poison, polsonl O thou man of Ood, thero is death In tho pot I" Consternation Is thrown over tho wholo group. What n for tunate thing it was that this student so early found tho coloqulntldn in tho mixture nt tho tnblo 1 You will by refcrenco find tho story is precisely as I havo mentioned It, CALDUONS OP BIN AND DEATH. Well, in our day thcro tiro great caldrons of sin and dcatlu Coloqulntida of mighty temptation is pressed into It. Botno dip it out, and tnsto, nud reject it and live. Others dip it out, tnsto it, keep on nud die. And it is tho business of every minister of religion and every man who wishes well to tho human raeo, and who wants to keep tho world back from its follies and its sufferings, to cry out: "Bownrol poison, polsonl Look out for this caldron! Stand back I Dowarol" Bin has dono an awful work In our world. It has gono out through all tho uges, It has mixed up n great caldron of troublo and suf fering nnd pain, and tho wholo raco is poi soned jwlsonod in body, poisoned in mind, poisoned hi soul. But blessed bo Ood that tho Gospel of Jesus Christ is tho antidote, and whero thcro was sin thcro shall bo iir don, nnd whero thero was suffering thcro fchall bo comfort, nnd whero thcro was death thcro shall bo Ufa Somo titno ago, you will remember, I per suaded you of tho importanco of being char itablo In judgment of others. At tho snmo time I said to you briefly what this morning I wish to say with great emphasis, that whllo wo sympathlzo with tho slnucr wo must do neuueo tho sin, that whllo wo pity tho unfor tunate wo must bo vehement ngalnst trans gression. Sin Is a jagged tiling thnt needs to be roughly handled. You have no right to garland it with flno phrases or lustrous rhet oric. You cannot catch a buffalo with a silken lasso. A group of emigrants scttlo in a wild re gion. Tho next day n wild beast comes down from tho mountain and carries off ono of tho children. Tho next day a wild beast comes down from tho mountain and carries off an other child. Forthwith all tho neighbors band together, nnd they go out with torch In ono hand and gun In tho other to hunt theso monsters down, to And their hiding place, to light up and ransack tho caverns, nud to de stroy tho Invaders of their houses. So wo wont now not merely to talk about tho sins and tho follies of tho world; wo want to go behind them, back of them. Down Into tho caverns whero they hldo wo need to go with tho torch of God's Word in ono hand nnd tho sword of God's eternal Spirit in tho other to bunt out and slay theso iniquities in their hiding places. Or, to como back to tho flguro suggested by my text, wo want to find what are tho caldrons of sin and death from which tho iniquities of society aro dipped out UNDISCIPLINED HOMES. I. In tho first place, I remark: that un happy and undisciplined homes aro tho cal drons of great Inlquity.PnrcuU harsh and cruel on tho ono hand, or on thuftthci- hand looso In their government wickedly looso in their government aro raising up n genera tion of vipers. A home whero scolding nnd fretfuluess aro domluant is blood relation to tho gallows and tho jienltcutiary I Petulance is a serpent that crawls up into tho family nursery sometimes nud crushes everything. Why. thcro aro iurents who oven ninko re ligion disgusting to their children. They scold them for not loving Christ Thoy havo nn oxasKTating way of doing their duty. Tho houso Is full of tho warwhoop of conten tion, and from such a placo husband and sons go out to die. Oh, Is thero a Hagar leading away Ishmael Into tho desert to lo smitten of the thirst nnd parched of tho sand I In tho solemn birth hour a voico fell to theo from tho throno of God, saying: "Tnko this child and nurso it for mo, and I will givo theo thy wages."- At ovcntlmo when tho angels of Ood hover over that homo, do thoy hear tho children lisping tho nnmo of Jesus I O traveler for eternity, your llttlo ones gathered under your robes, nro you leading them on tho right road, or aro you taking them out on tho dangerous winding bridlo path off which their Inoxperienced foet may slip, nnd up which comes tho howl ing of tho wolf and tho sound of loosened ledgo nnd tumbling avalanche! Blessed Is tho family altar at which tho children kneel Illessed is tho cradlo in which tho Christian mother rocks tho Christian child. Illessed is the song tho llttlo ones sing at nightfall when sleep Is closing tho eyes nnd loosening tho hand from tho toy on tho pillow. Illessed is thnt mother whoso overy heart throb is a prayer for her children's welfare, Tho world grows old, nud tho stars will cooso to illuminate It, and tho wnters to re fresh It, and ' tho mountains to guard it, and tho heavens to ovcrspan it, and its long story of sin and limine- nnd glory and triumph will soon turn to iishess but Influences that started in tho early homo roll on nud roll up through all eternity bloomlug In all tho Joy, waving In all tho triumph, exulting In nil tho song, or shrinking back into all tho darkness. Father, mother, which way aro you leading your children f A FATAL rOIiaETKULNESS. A houso took flro and tho owner was very careful to get all his furniture out Ho got all his books out, and ho got all his pictures put, and ho got all his valuable tmww mil. but ho forgot to nk, until It was loo Into, "Aro my children snfol" Oh, when tho corth shall melt with fervent heat, and tho moun tains shall blaze, and tho sons shall blare, nnd tho earth shall blatc, will your children bo snfol Will your children. Iw safe? Unhappy and undisciplined hpaica nro tho sottrco of much of tho wrctCMb'neja nnd sin of tho world. I know thero nro exceptions to It sometimes. From a bright nnd beautiful Christian homo n husband or son will go out to die. Oh, how long you had that boy In your prayers. Ha docs not know how many weepies nights you havo spent over him. Ho doe not under stand how mnny tears you havo shod for his way warduoss. Oh, It is hard, after you hnvo tolled for a child, nnd given hltn every nd vnntago nnd overy klndniM, to havo him pay you back In Ingratitude, As ono Bnbliath morning n father camo to tho foot of Uio pul pit as 1 stepjn-d out of It and Midi "Oh, my son, my sou, my unit" Thero Is many a young man proud of his mother, who would strlko Into tho dust any man who would In sult her, who Is nt this moment himself, by his evil doing nnd his bad habits, nhnrpcnlng a dagger to plungo through that mother's heart A telegram brought him from nfnr. Ho wont bloated and scarred Into tho room nnd stood by tho lifelew form of his mother. Hcrhnlrgrayi It hud turned grny In sor row. Thoso eyes had wept floods of tears over his wnndcrlng. That still white hand bad dono him many a kindness and had writ ten him many n loving Invention nnd good counsel. Ho had broken her old heart Ho camo Into tho room and throw himself on tho casket and ho sobbed outright: "Mother, mother!" Uut thoso lips that had kissed him In Infancy and uttered so mnny kind words spako not; thoy wero sealed. Ilather than hnvo such a memory como on my soul I would prefer to havo roll over on mo tho Alps nnd tho Himalayas. Ilut whllo sometimes thcro aro sons vLo turn out very badly coming from good homes, I want to tell you for your encourage ment Itlsagrent exception. Yet an unhnppy and undisciplined homo is tho jiolsonous cal dron from which a vast multitude drink their death. II. I remark that another caldron of in iquity is an indolent life. All tho rail trains down tho Hudson river yesterday, all tho rail trains on tho Penusylvnnla route, nil tho trains on tho Long Island road brought to theso cities young men to begin com mercial life. Bomo of them nro hero this morning, I doubt not Do you know what ono of your great temptations is going to hoi It Is tho cxnmplo of In dolent jieoplo In our cities. They nro In nil our cities. Thoy dress lietter than somo who nro industrious. Thoy havo access to nil places of amusement plenty of money, and yet ldlo. They hang around our great hotels tho Fifth Avenuo, tho Windsor, tho Ilriins wlck, tho Btuyvoant, tho Gilsoy houso all our beautiful hotels, you find them nrouud thcro any day men who do nothing, novor enru anything, yet well dressed, having plenty. Why should I walk? Why should you work! Why drudge mid toil in bank nnd shop nnd olllco, or on tho scaffolding, or by tho anvil, when theso men get along so well and do not work I Somo of them hang around tho city hnllsof our great cities, toothpick In their mouth, waiting for somo crumb to fall from tho of flco holder's table, Somo of tliem hang around tho city hnll for tho city van bring ing criminals from tho station houses. Thoy stand thero nud gloat over it really enjoy tho dlsgraco and suffering of thoso jioor crea tures as they get out of tho city van and go Into tho courts. THE K0UII WAYS Of MO.VEV aETTINO. Whero "do they get their moueyl That is what you ask. That Is what I ask. Only four ways of getting money only four: By Inherltanco, by earning it, by begging it, by stealing it; nud thcro aro a vast multitudo among us who get their living not by inher ltanco, nor by earning It, nor by lioggiug It I do not llko to tako tho responsibility of say ing bow thoy get it Now, theso men nro a constot temptation. Why should I toil and wear myself out in tho bank, or tho office, or tho store, or tho shop or tho factoryl Theso men hnvo noth ing to do. Thoy get along n great deal bet ter. And that is tho temptation under which a great many young men fall. They begin to consort with thoso men, theso idlers, and thoy go down tho snmo awful steejw. Tho number of men In our cities who nro trying to get their living by their wits nnd by sleight of hand is nil tho timo increasing. A Now York merchant saw a young man, ono of his clerks, in half disguise, going into a very low placo of amusement. Tho mer chant said to himself: "I must look out for that clerk; ho Is going in bad company and going in IkuI places; I must look out for Him." A few months passed on, nnd ono morning tho merchant entered his store, and this clerk of whom I havo boon speaking camo up In assumed consternation and said: "Oh, sir, tho store has been on flro; I havo put out tho Are, but thero aro a great many goods lost; wo havo had n great crowd of peoplo coming nnd going." Then tho mer chant took tho clerk by tho collar and said: "I havo had enough of this; you rnmiot do celvo mo; whero aro thoso goods that you stolof' Tho young man iustantly confessed his villainy. O, tho numbers of peoplo in theso great cities who nro trying to get their living not honestly! And thoy (iron mighty temptation o f I io Industrious young man. who cannot understand it Whllo theso others havo It o easy, they havo It so hard. Horatius of olden tlmowas told that lyicould havo just as much ground as ho could plow around with n yoko of oxen in ono day. Ho booked up tho oxen to tho plow nnd ho cut a -very largo clrclo, nnd plowed until ho came to tho samo point wlicro ho started, nnd all that property was his. Uut I havo to tell you today that Just so much financial, just so much moral, just so much spiritual possession you will havo as you compute with your own Industries, and just so much ns from tho morning of your life to tho evening of your Ufa you enn plow around with your own hard work. "Go to tho ant, thou sluggard; consider her wnj'B and bo wise" Ono of tho most nwful cald rons of death todny is au indolent life. Thank God thnt you havo to work. THE AWFUL HALOON. III. Oncomoro 1 remark i that tho dram shop is a great caldron of iniquity in our time. Anachnrsls said that the vino bore three grnK-s! tho first was Pleasure, tho next was Drunkenness, aud tho next Misery. Every saloon nbovo ground or under ground is n fountain of Iniquity. It may haven license, and it may go ulong quite respectably for n while, but after a whilo tho cover will fnll off and tho color ot tho Iniquity will bo dis played. "Oh," says some one, "you ought to Iks ea sier on such a trnfllo when It wiys such n largo revenue to tho government, and heljis iupjwt your schools nnd your great Institu tions of mercy." And then 1 think of what Willlnm E. Gladstone said I think It was tho first tlmo ho was chancellor of tho ex chequerwhen men engaged In tho ruinous trnfllo enmo to him and snld their business ought to have more consideration from tho fact that it paid such a large revenue to tho English government Mr. GlatUtouo said: "Gentlemen, don't worry yourselves about tho revenue; givo mo thirty millions of sober people, nud we'll have revenue enough aud a surplus." Wo might In this country this traffic per ished havo loss rovemto, but vo would hove mora happy homes, nnd wo would havo mora ponce, and wo would havo fewer pooplo In tho penitentiary, nnd thero would be tent of thousands of men who aro now on tho road to hell who would start on tho road to heaven. But tho financial ruin is a very small part of It This Iniquity of which 1 speak takes everything that Is sacred out of tho family, everything thnt is holy In religion, very thing thnt is Infinite In tho soul and tramples It under foot Tho mnrrlago day has como. Tho twnlti nro nt tho altar. Lights flash. Muslo sounds. Gay feet go up nud down tho drawing room. Did over a vessel launch on such n bright nud Itoautlful seal Tho sceno changes. Dirty garret No flro. On a broken chnlr n sorrowful wife. Ijist hope gone. Poor, forsaken, trodden under foot, ho knows nil tho sorrows of being n drunk ard's wife. "Oh," she says, "ho was tho kindest man that over lived, ho wa so noble, ho was o good I God novor mado a grander mnn than ho was, but tho drink did it, tho drink did it!" Bomo day sho will press her hands ngnlust her temples and cry, "Oh, my brnln, my brnlnl" Or sho will go out on the abutment of tho brldgo somo moonlight night nnd look down on tho glassy surfaco, nnd wonder If under that glassy surfaco thcro is not some rest for n broken heart A young man, through tho intercession of motroX)lltaii friends, guts a place In a bank or store Hols going to leave his country homo. Thnt morning thoy nro up early In tho old homestead. Tho trunk Is on tho wagon. Mother says: "My sou, 1 put n Blblo in tho trunk, I hojio you will rend It often." Sho wijes tho team uwnywlth hcrnpron. "Oh," ho says, "come, don't you bo worried, I know how to tnko caro of myself, Don't lio worried about me," Tho father snyst "My son, lw n good Iwy nud write homo often, your mother will bo suxlotu to hear from you," Crackl goes tho -v it I n. and over tho hills goes tho wngon. l'irt years hnvo passed on, nnd a dissipated lo has dono its work for that young niurx Thero is a hoarso coming up in front of tho old homestead. Tho young men of tho nclghliorhood who hnvo stayed on tho farn como In nud say i "Is it posslblol Why, he doesn't look nntural, docs hoi Is that t'.o fair brow wo used to know! Is that tl'j healthy cheek wo used to know It can't 'jopo&slblo thnt Is him." Tho parentH stand looking at tho gash in tho fore head from which tho life oozed out, nnd they lift their 'jands anil snyi "O, my son Absa lom, my son, my sou Absalom; would God I had died for theo, O Absalom, my son, my soul'' nilUNKENNlMS AN EXPENSIVE DIIAUOHT. Lorenzo do Medici was very sick, aud somo of his superstitious friends thought If thoy could dlssolvo n certain numltcr of jienrls In n cup nnd then ho would drink them, It would euro him of tho dlsenso. So they w entaroimd oud thoy gathered up all tho beautiful jx-'urls thoy could find, nnd they dissolved them in a cup, and tho sick man ilrunk them. Oh, it was nn expensive draught But I tell you of n more expensive draught than that Drunk enness puts Into Its cup tho jioarl of physical health, tho earl of domestic, happiness, tho pearl of respectability, tho jienrl of Christian hopo, tho peurl of an everlasting heaven, and presses it to tho hot lips. I tell you tho dram shop Is tho gate of hell, Tho troublo is they do not put up tho right kind of a sign. Thoy havo n great many dif ferent kinds of signs now on places whero strong drink is sold. Ono is called tho "res taurant," and another Is called tho "saloon," and another Is called tho"hotel,"nndnnother is called tho "wiuo collar," and another Is called tho "sample room." What a nnmo to givo ono of thoso places! A "sntnplo room!" I saw n man ou tho steps of ouo of thoso "samplo rooms" tho other day, dead drunk. I said to myself: "I supposothat isn sample!" I tell you It Is tho gate of hell. "Oh," says somo man, "I am kind, I am Indulgent to my family, I nm right In many respects, I am very generous, and 1 hnvo too grand and generous n moral nnturo to bo overthrown In that way." Let mo say that tho jKirsons who aro in tho most jierll havo tho largest hearts, tho best education, tho brightest prosiwcts. This sin chooses tho fat test lambs for Its sacrifice, Tho brightest garlands nro by this carbuncled hand of drunkenness torn off tho brow of tliooetnnd tho orator. Charles Lamb, answer I Thomas Hood, answer! Sheridan, tho English orator, answer! Edgnr A. Poo, auswer! Junius Brutus Booth, answer! BE UABTKH OK YOUll APPETITE. Ob, como nnd look over Into It whllo I draw off tho cover hang over It and look down into it, and seo tho seething, boiling, loath some, smoking, agonizing, blaspheming hell of tho drunkard. Young man, lie master of your appetites and passions. Thero nro hun dredsmight I not say thousands! of young men In this houso this morning young men of fair prospects. Put your trust in tho Lord and nil is well. But you will bo tempt ed. PerhajH you may this moment bo ad dressed on tho first Sabbath of your coming to tho great city, and 1 givo you this broth rrly counsel. 1 speak not In a jierfunctory way. 1 sjieak as an older brother talks to n younger brother. 1 put my hand ou your shoulder this day and commend you to Jesus Christ, who himself was a young man, and died whllo yet n young man, nud has sympa thy for all young men. Oh, lo muster, by tho grnco of God, of your npjietltes and pas sions! I closp with a perorntlon. Ministers and speakers aro very apt to closo with a x;rora tlon, and thoy generally roll up somo grand Imagery to oxpress what thoy have to say. I closo with a peroration mightier than was over uttered by mero human lips. Two quo tations. The first is this: "Who hath woe! who hath babbling! who hath wounds with out causof Thoy that tarry long at tho wino, thoy that go to sock mixed wine. Look not upon tho wino when it is red, when It inovoth itself aright in tho cup, for at tho lust it biteth llko a berpent nnd stlngeth llko an ad der." This Is tho other quotation. Mnko up your mind as to which Is tho inoro Impressive. I think tho last Is tho mightier: "Itejoico, O young man, In thy youth, nnd let thy heart cheer theo In tho days of thy youth, and walk thou in tho sight of thluo own eyes; but know thou that for nil theso things God will bring thee Into Judgment" Klllllll-r llonl.
