BitooKLVX, Mny 4. After tho Ixmgmeter
Doxology mill appropriate hymn Imil boon
Bung by tliu coiigrcgntlon In tlia Acmlcmy
of Music, imil prnyer luul been offered, Dr.
Tnlmogo preached on "Narrow Bscupcs,"
taking tut IiIh text Job jilx, SO, "I am escaped
with tho skin of my teeth," Following Is
his sermon In full)
Job hml It Intnl. Whnt with boils and bo
rcnvomontM and bankruptcy, nnd it fool of n
wlfo, ho wished ho wax dead, and I do not
blamo him. Ills flesh was gone, anil his
bones wero dry. Ills teeth wasted away tint II
nothing but tho enamel seemed left. Uo
cries out, "I am escaped with tho skin of
my teeth." Thoro has been somo ililTer
enco of opinion about this pussago. St.
Jcromo and Schttltcns, and Drs. Good and
I'oolo and Dames have all tried their for
ceps on Job's teeth. You deny my Inter
pretation and Bay, "What did Job know
about tho enamel of tho teeth V He
know everything about It. Dental surgery
Is nlmost as old as tho enrth. Tho mum
mies of Egypt, thousands of years old,
nro found today with gold filling In their
teeth. Ovid and Horace and Solomon and
Moses wroto about theso important factors
of tho body. To other provoking com
plaints, Job, I think, has added an exasper
ating toothache, nnd putting his hand
against tho Inflamed face, ho says, "I am
escaped with tho skin of my teeth."
A very narrow escape, you say, for Job's
body and soul; but thcro arc thousands of
men who make just as narrow cscapo for
their soul. Thcro was a time when tho
partition between them and ruin wns no
thicker than a tooth's enamel; but ns Job
finally escaped, so have they. Thank God I
thank Godl
Paul expresses tho samo Idea by a differ
cnt flguro when ho says that somo people
nro "saved ns by llro." A vessel at sea Is
In flames. You go to tho stern of tho ves
sel. Tho boats novo shoved off. Tho flamee
advance; you can endttro tho heat no longer
on your face. You slido down on tho side
of tho vessel, and hold on with your fingers,
until tho forked tongue of the llro beghn
to lick tho back of your hand, and you feel
that you must fall, when ono of tho life
boats comes back, nnd tho passengers say
thoy think they have room for ono more.
Tho boat swings under you you drop into
It you nro saved. So somo men nro pur
sued by temptation until they nro partially
consumed, but, after nil, get off "saved as
by fire." nut I Uko tho flguro of Job n
llttlo better than that of Paul, becauso the
pulpit has not worn it out; and I want to
show you, if God will help, that somo men
inako narrow cscapo for their souls, and
aro saved as "with tho slcin of their teeth."
TWO PICTUItKS.
It is as easy for some people to look to
tho cross ns for you to lcok to this pulpit.
Mild, gentle, tractable, loving, you expect
them to becomo Christians. You go over
to tho store nud say: "Grandou Joined tho
church yesterday." YourbuslucsscomrudcR
say: "That Is just what might have been
expected; ho always was of that turn of
mind." In youth this person whom I de
scribe was always good. Ho never broko
things. Ho never laughed whon it wns
improper to laugh. At seven, ho could sit
an hour in church, perfectly quiet, looking
neither to tho right hand nor to tho left,
but straight into tho eyes of tho minister,
as though ho understood tho whole discus
sion about tho eternal decrees. Ho never
upset things nor lost them. Ho floated
into tho kingdom of God so gradually that
it is uncertain just whon tho mnttor was
decided.
Hero Is another one, who started in life
with an uucontrollnblo spirit. Ho kept tho
nursery in an uproar. His mother found
him walking on tho edgo of tho houto roof
to seo if ho could bulanco himself. Thcro
was no horse that ho dared not ride no
tree ho could not climb. His boyhood
was a long scries of predicaments; his man
hood was reckless; Ids midlife very way
ward. But now ho Is converted, and you
go over to tho storo und say, "Arkwright
joined tho church yesterday." Your friends
say, "It is not possible! You must bo jok
ing." You say: "No; I toll you tho truth.
Ho joined tho church." Then they reply,
"Thero Is hope for nny of us If old Ark
wright has becomo a Christian!" In other
words, wo will admit that it is more diffi
cult for somo men to accept tho Gospel than
for others.
I may bo preaching to somo who have cut
looso from churches and Bibles nnd Sun
days, and who have coino in hero with no
intention of becoming Christians them
selves, but just to sco what Is going on;
and yet you may find yourself escaping, bo
foro you lea vo this house, as "with tho skiu
of your teeth." I do not expect to wasto
this hour. I have seen boats go oil from
Capo May or Long Branch nnd drop their
nets, nnd nftcr awliilo como ashore, pulling
in tho nets, without having caught a single
fish. It was not n good day, or thoy had
not tho right kind of a net. But wo oxpect
no such excursion today. Tho water is full
of fish, tho wind Is in tho right direction,
tho Gospel net is strong. Oh, thou who
tlidst help Simon and Androw to fish,
show us today how to cast tho net on tho
right side of tho ship!
THE IIEAIIT'S DOOlt,
Somo of you, in coming to God, will havo
to run against skeptical notions. It is use
less for people to say sharp and cutting
things to thosowho reject the Christian
religion. I cannot say such things. By
whnt process of temptation or trial or bo
trayal you havo como to your present state
I know not.i Thero aro two guU-s to your
nature tho gate of tho head and tho gato
of the heart. Tho gato of your head is
locked with holts and bars that an arch
angel could not break, but tho gato of your
heart swings easily on its hinges. If I as
saulted your body with weapons you would
meet me with weapons, nnd It would be
sword stroke for sword stroke, nnd wound
for wound, and blood for blood; but If I
coma and knock nt tho door of your house
you open It, and give mo tho best seat la
your parlor, It I should como at yo. now
with an argument you would answer mo
with an argument; if with sarcasm, you
would answer mo with sarcasm; blow for
blow, stroke for stroke; but when 1 como
nnd knock at tho door of your heart you
open it untl say, "Como in, my brother, and
tell mo all you know about Christ nnd
heuvon."
Listen to two orthreoquchiioust Aro you
as happy as you used to bo when you be
Moved In tho truth of tho Christian religion?
Would you like to havo your children tru vol
on in tho toad In which you aro now travel
lngf You had a rclativo who professed to
bo a Christian, und was thoroughly con
sistent, living and dying in the faith of tho
Gospel. Would you not Uko to Uvo tho
it mo unlit I tie. and die tho same peaceful
diuthf I have a let tor, sent mo by ono who
tins rejected tho Christina religion. It saynt
"I am old enough to know that the Joys
and pleasures of life lire evanescent, and to
rcnllzo the fact that It must Ikj comfortable
In old age to believe In something relative
to tho future, nnd to havo u faith In somo
system that proposes to save. I am free to
confess that I would bo happier if I could
exercise the simple nnd beautiful faith that
Is possessed by many whom I know. I am
not willingly out of tho church or out of
tho faith. My state of uncertainty Is ono
of unrest. Sometimes 1 doubt my Immor
tality, and looli upon tho death bed as the
closing scene, nftcr which them is nothing.
What shall 1 do that I havo not donor"
Ah! skepticism is n dr.tk nnd doleful land.
Let mo say that this Bible Is either true or
false. If it be false, wo nro as well oil as
you; If it bo true, then which of us I safer?
Let mo also ask whether your trouble, has
not been that you confounded Christianity
with tho Inconsistent character of somo
who profess it. You nro n lawyer. In your
profession thero nro mrnn and 'dishonest
men. ItUhntntiythlngngaliiHttholawf You
nro a doctor. Thero aro unskilled and con
temptible, men In your profession. Is that
anything ngnlnst medicine? You nro a mer
chant. There aro thieves and defrnuders
In your business. Is that anything against
merchandiser Behold, then, the unfair
ties of charging upon Christianity tho
wickedness of ItsdlsclpU. Wo admit some
of tho churgesagalusttlioso who profess re
ligion. Some of tho most gigantic swindles
of tho present day havo been carried on by
members of tho church. Thcro aro men
standing in tho front rank in the churches
who would not bo trusted for live dollars
without good collateral security. They
leave their business dishonesties in tho
vestibule of the church ns they go In nnd
sit at tho communion. Having concluded
tho sacrament, they get up, wipe tho wine
from their lips, go out, nnd tuku up their
sins where they left off. To servo tho devil
Is their regular work; to servo God, a sort
of play spell. With a Sunday sponge they
expect to wipe oil from their business slntc
nil the" past week's Inconsistencies. 'You
havo no more right to take such n man's
life ns u specimen of religion than you have
to Uike tho twisted irons und split timbers
that lie on the bench at Coney Island ns a
cpecimen of an American ship. It Is time
that we draw a line between religion and
tho frailties of those who profess It.
Tin: nmi.i;.
Do you not feel that tho Bible, tnko it
all in nil, Is about the best book Unit the
world has over seen? Do you know any
book that hits its much in it? Do you not
think, upon the whole, that Its Influence
has been Ixmcflcont? I como to you with
Irath hnnds extended townrd you. In ono
hand I have the Bible, nnd in tho other I
have nothing. This l'lblc In ono hand I
will surrender forever just as soon as In
my other hand you' can put a hook that Is
letter. Today I Invite you back Into tho
good old fashioned religion of your fathers
to tho God whom they worshiped, to tho
Bihlo they read, to the promises on which
they leaned, to the cross on which they
hung their eternal expectations. You havo
not tccn happy a day since you swung off;
you will not be happy a mlnuto until you
swing back.
Again: There may 1k somo of you who,
in the attempt ufter u Christian life, will
have to run against powerful passions and
appetites. Perhaps It is a disposition to
nngertuat you navo to contend against;
and perhaps, whllo in n very serious mood,
you hear of something that makes you feel
that you must swear or dlo. I Know u
Christian man who was once so oxasicrntcd
that ho said to a mean customer: "I can
not swear at you myself, for I am n mom
ler of the church; but If you will go down
stairs my partner in business will swear at
you." All your good resolutions hereto
fore have been torn to tatters by explosion
of temper. Now thero is no barm in get
ting mud if you only get mad at sin. You
need to bridle and saddle those hot breathed
passions, ami with them rido down injus
tice and wrong. Thero aro u thousand
things in the world that wo ought to bo
mad at. There is no harm in getting red
lint if you only bring to tho foro that
which needs hammering. A mnu who has
uo power of righteous Indignation Is nn
imbecile. Hut bo sure It is a righteous In
dignation, und not a petulaucy that blurs
and unravels and depletes tho soul.
There Is a largo class of persons In mid
life who linvo still in them apatites that
wero aroused in early manhood, at u time
when they prided themselves on being n
"little fast," "high livers," "free und easy,"
"hall fellows well met." Thoy nro now
pitying, in compound Interest, for troubles
they collected twenty years ago. Somu of
you nro trying to escnpo, nnd you will yet
very narrowly, "as witli tho skin of your
teeth." God and your own soul only know
what tho strugglo Is. Omnipotent grace
has pulled out many a soul that was deeper
In tho mire tlinu you are. Thoy lino the
beach of heaven tho multitude whom God
has rescued from tho thrall of suicidal
habits. If you this day turn your back on
tho wrong and start nnow, God will help
you. Oh, the weakness of human help!
Men will sympathize for a while, and then
turn you oil. If you r.sk for their pardon,
they will glvo it, und sny they will try you
again; but, falling away ngaln under the
power of temptation, they cast you off
forever. But God forgives seventy times
seven; yea, soven hundred times; yen,
though this l)o the ten-thousandth time,
lie is more earnest, more sympathetic,
more helpful, this Inst time than when you
took your first misstep.
A IIAltl) BTIIUGGLK.
If, with nil tho influences favorablo for a
right life, men make so many mistakes,
how much harder it is when, for instance,
some appetite thrusts Its iron grapple Into
tho roots of tho tongue, anil pulls a man
down with hands of destruction! If, under
such circumstances, he break away, there
will bo no sport in tho undertaking, no hol
iday enjoyment, but u struggle lu which
tho wrestlers move from side to side, nnd
bend und twist, nnd watch for an opportu
nity to get in a heavier stroke, until with
one final effort, in which tho muscles are
dlst ended, und tho veins stand out, und the
blood starts, tho swarthy habit fulls under
the knee of the victor escaped at last as
"with the skin of Ids teeth."
The ship Bmmn, bound from Gotteuburg
to Harwich, was sailing on, when tho man
on the lookout saw something that ho pro
nounced n vessel bottom up. Thero wns
something on it that looked likonbcn gull,
but wns ufterwurd found to bo n waving
handkerchief, la tho smnll boat tho crew
pushed out to tho wreck, and found that it
was n capsized vessel, and that three meu
had been digging their way out through
the bottom of tho ship. When the vessel
capsized they had no means of escape. The
captain took his penknife and dug away
through tho planks until his knife broke.
Then an old nail was found, with which
they attempted to scrape their way out of
tho darkness, each one working until his
hand was well nigh paralyzed and he sank
back faint nnd sick. Afterlougaud tedious
work the light broke through the bottom
of the ship. A handkerchief was hoisted
Help came. They were taken on board the
vessel and saved, Did ever men come so
near a watery grnvo without dropping Into
It? How narrowly they cscoodl escnxl
only "with tho skin of their teeth."
Thero nro men who havo Iteen cnpslrcdof
rvll pmslons, and capsized mid-ocenn, and
thoy mil n thousand miles away from any
shore of help. They havo for years been
trying to dig their way out. They havo
been digging away and digging nwny, but
they can never bo delivered unless thoy will
hoist somo signal of dlittress. However
weak and fccblu It tuny lie, Christ will sco
It, and bear down upon tho helpless craft,
and take them on board, and It will bo
known lu earth and la heaven how nar
rowly they escaped "cseaed as with the
skin of their teeth."

Thero nro others who la attempting to
como to God must run tatwoon u great
many business perplexities, If a mna go

how shall you II nd time for religious con

til Saturday night, you aro dodging bills
that you cannot meet? You walk day by
day la uncertainties that huvu kept, your
brain on llro for tho past three years, Somo
with less huslncaH troubles than you havo
gone crazy. Tho clerk has heard a aolso lu
tho back counting room, nnd gotio In, und
found tho chief man of tho Arm a raving
maniac; or tho wife has heard tho bang of
a pistol In tho hack parlor, and gone lu,
stumbling over tho dead body of her hus
band n stilcldo. Thero aro In this house
today three hundred men pursued, har
turned, trodden down and scalped, of busi
ness perplexities, und which way to turn
next they do not know. Now God will aot
Ir) hard oa you. Hu knows what obstacles

mid your first elTort ia tho right direction
ho will crown with success. Do not let
Satan, with cotton bales and kegs and hogs

goods, block up your way to heaven. Gather
up id! your energies. Tighten tho girdle
about your loins. Tnko uu agonizing look
Into tho face of God, and then say, ''Hero
goes ono grand effort for llfo ctcrnall" and
then bound away for heaven, escaping as
"with tho skin of your twtlt."
Ia tho last day It will bo found that Hugh
Latimer and John Knox nad Httss and
Ridley were nut tho greatest martyrs, but
Christian men who went up Incorrupt
from tho contaminations und perplexities
of Wall street, Wider street. Pearl street,
11 road street, Statu street nnd Third stit-ct.
Oa enrth they wero called brokers, or stock
jobbers, or retailers, or lniKrtors; but In

CIIKATIU) OUT OP THEIIt FAITH.
I find lu tho community n lnrgu class of
men who have been so cheated, so Hod
ubout, so outrageously wronged, that thoy
havo lost their faith ia everything, la n
world where overythlng seems so topsy
turvy they do not sco how thero can bo
any God. They ure confounded and fren
zied nnd misanthropic. Elaborate argu
ments to tirovo to them tho truth of Chris
tianity, or tho truth of anything else, touch
them nowhere. Hear me, all such meu. I
preach to you uo rounded periods, uo orna
mental discourse; but put my hand on
your shoulder, und Invito you into tho
peace of tho Gospel. Heru Is n rock on which
you mny stand firm, though tho waves
dash against it harder than tho Atlantic
pitching its surf clear abovo Kddystono
llghthouso. Do not charge upon God all
these troubles of tho world. As long as the
world stuck to God, God stuck to tho
world; but tho earth s"ccded from his gov
ernment, und henco nil theso outrage l and
all theso woes. God is good. For many
hundreds of years ho has been coaxing tho
world to como back to him; but tho more
ho hits coaxed tho more violent havo men
been lu their resistance, nnd they huvu
stepped buck und stepped back until they
havo dropped into ruin.
Try this God.yu who havo had tho blood
hounds nftcr you, and who havo thought
that God had forgotten you. Try him,
und see if ho will not help. Try him, und
seo If ho will not pardon. Try him, and
sco If ho will not save. Tho flowers of
spring havo no bloom so sweet as tho
flowering of Christ's affections. Tho sun
hnth uo warmth compared with the glow
of his heart. Tho waters havo no refresh
ment Uko tho fountain that will slake tho
thirst of thy soul. At tho moment the
reindeer standi with his Up and nostril
thrust in tho cool mountain torrent tho
hunter may bo coming through tho thicket.
Without crackling a stick under his foot,
he comes close by tho stag, aims his gun,
draws tho trigger, und tho poor thing rears
in Its death agony and falls backward, Its
antlers crashing on tho rocks; but tho punt
ing hart that drinks from tho water brooks
of God's promise shall never bo fatally
wounded and shall never die.

This world is a poor portion for your
soul, oh business muni An eastern king
had graven on his tomb two lingers, repro
presented as sounding upon each other
with a snap, and under them tho motto:
"All Is not worth that." Aplcltts Cudius
hanged himself because his steward In
formed him that ho had only eighty thou
sand pounds sterling left. All of this
world's riches mako but a small inherit
ance for a soul. Robespierre attempted to
win tho applause of tho world; but when
ho was dying, n woman came rushing
through the crowd, crying to him: "Mur
dsrer of ray kindred, descend to hell, cov

Oh, find your penco In GoX Mnko ono

on shipboard when everything must bo

"Cut uway tho mast!" Somo of you huvo

I shall go homo today feeling that somo
