Hie man or uz lial a en-eat many
trials tholtJBSbf hu family, the loos of
liia probity, tho loss of hi health; but
tho most exasperating thing that camo
upon him was tho tantalizing talk of
thoHo who ought to have sympathized
with him. Looking around upo.-i them.
and weighing what they had eaid, ho
Utters tho words of my text.
Why did God let Bin corao into the
world? It is a question I often hear dis
cussed, but never satisfactorily answered,
Clod made tho world fair and beautiful
nJtho start. If our first parents had not
tinned in Eden, they might have gone
out of that garden and found fifty ara-
dises all around tho earth Europe, At'.a,
Africa, North and South America so
many flower gardens, or orchards of
fruit, redolent and luscious. I suppose
that when God poured out the Gilion and
tho Hiddckel, ho poured out, at the same
time, tho Hudson and tho busquehanna;
tho whole earth was very fair and beau
tiful to look upon. Why did it not stay
so? God had tho power to keep back sin
and woe. Why did ho not keep them
back? Why not every cloud roseate.
and every etep a joy, and every sound
music, and all the agon a long jubileo of
sinless men and sinless women? God
can make a rose as easily as he can make
a thorn. Why, then, the predominance
of thorns? Ho can make good, fair,
ripo fruit as well as gnarled ami sour
fruit. Whv so much, then, that is
gnarled and sour? Jlo can make men
robust in health. "Why, then, are there
so many invalids? Why not have for
our whole raco jerp6tual leisure, instead
of this tug and tod and tussle for a Jive
lihood? I will tell you why God let sin
come into tho world when I get on the
other fi Jo of tho Kivcr of Death, That
is the place where such questions will be
answered ami such mysteries 6oIved.
Ho who this side of that river attempts
to answer the question only illustrates
his own ignorance ami incompetency,
AH I know is one great fact, and that f?
that a herd of woes have come in upon
lis, trampling down everything fair and
leautiful. A sword at the gate of Eden,
and a sword at every gate. More peoplo
under tho ground than on it. The grave
yards in vast majority. Tho sjx (io;san
winters have made more scars than the
six thousand summers can cover up.
TroubJo has' taken the tender heart of
this world fn its yo rough liauds and
pinched it until the nations wail with (he
agony. If all the mounds of graveyards
that have been lifted were put side by
side, you might; step on them and on
nothing else, going all around the worjd,
mid around again, and around again.
These are the foots. And now I have to
est occupation is that of giving condo

comfort to the troubled wo. ought all of
us to study. There are many of you
who could look around upon some of
your very best friends wllo wish you.
wall and are very intelligent, and ye be
able truthfully to say to them in your
days of trouble, ''Miserable ponifprter?
are ye all. '
I remark, in the first place, that very
voluble poople are incompetent for the
.work of giving comfort, Bildad and
Eliphag had the gift of language, and
with their wofds ajmost. bothered Job's
life out. Alas for these voluble people
that go among the houses of the afflicted
and talk, and talk, and talk, and talk!
They rehearse their own coj-rpws, and
then they tell the poor sufferers that they
feel badly uoty, but they will feel worse
lifter awhile. Silence! Do you expect,
with a thin court plaster of words, to heal
n wound deep as the soul? Step very
fntly around about a broken heart.
Talk very 6oft!y around those whom God
has bereft. Then go ypur way. Deep
pympathy has not much, to say. A firui
grasp of the hand, a compassionate look,
just one word that means as much as a
whole dictionary, and you have given,
perhaps, all the comfort that a soul
needs. A man lias a terrible wound in
lus arm. The surgeon conies and binds
it up. "Now," he says, 'carry that arm
in a sling, and be very careful
of it. Let no one touch it," Put
the neighbors have heard of the accident,
and they ccmo in, and they say, "Let us
see it." And the bandago is pulled off,
and this one and that one must feel it,
and see how much it is swollen; and
there is irritation, and inflammation, and
exasperation, where there ought tq be
healing: and cooling! The surgeon comes
in, and says, "What does all this mean?
You havo no business to touch those
bandages. That wound will pever heal
unless you let it alone." So there are
jpouls broken down in sorrow. What
they most want is rest, or very careful

tearing off the bandages here, and pull
ing them off there, leaving a ghastly
wound that the balm of God's grace hail
already begun to heal. Oh, let no loqua

Again I remark, that all those persons
r incompetent to give any kind ol
comfort who act merely as worldly phil
osophers. They come in and say:
"Why, this is what you ought to have
expected. The laws of nature must have
their way;" and then they get eloquent
over comet hing they have seen in post
mortem examinations. Now, away
with all human philosophy at such a
time! What difference does it make to
that father and mother what disease
their eon died of? He is dead, and it
mekea no difference whether the trouble

ought to c JL your feelings. You
tnuMt not cry to. You must cultivate a
cooler temperament. You mubt have
self reliance, self government, self con
trol ; an iceberg reproving a hyacinth
for having a drop of dew in its eye. A
violinist has his instrument, and he
sweeps his fingers across the 6trings, now
evokuig strains or joy, ana now
strains of sadness. He can not
play all the tunes on ono t-trii:
1 lie human soul is tin instrument or a
thousand strings, and all sorts of emotions
were mado to play on it. Now an
anthem, now a dirge. It is no evidence
of weakneti when one is overcome of
sorrow. Edmund Durko wan found in
tho KiMure field with lus arms around a
horse's neck, caressing him, ami some
ono said, "Why, the great man has lost
his mind!" No; that horse l-lorged to
his son who had recently died, and his
great heart broke over the grief. It is
no sign of weakness that men arc over
come of their sorrows. Thank God for
the relief of tears. Have you never been
in trouble when you could not weep, and
you would have given anything for a
good cry? David did well when he
mourned for Absalom, Abraham did well
when ho licinoaned Sarah, Christ did well
when he wept for Lazarus; and the last
man I want to see come anywhere near
me when I have any kind of trouble is a
worldly philosopher.
Agua I remark, tliat those persons are
incompetent for the work of comfort
bearing who have nothing but cant to
offer. Thero aro those who have the idea
that you must groan over the distressed
and afflicted. Thero aro times in grief
when ono cheerful face dawnlpg upon a
man's soul is worth a thousand dollars to
him. Do not whine over the afflicted.
Take tho promises of tho Gospel, and
utter them in a manly tone. Do net be
afraid to smile if you feel like it. Do
not drive any more, hearses through that
poor soul. Do not tell lu'm the trouble
was foreordained ; it will not be any com
fort to know it was a million years com
ing. If you want to find splints for a
broken bone do not take cast iron. Do
not tell them it is God's justice that
weighs out grief. They want now to
hear of pods tenPF ulPFPy In other
words, do not givo them aqua fortis
when they need valerian.
Again I remark that those persons are
fioor comforters who jiave never had any
rouble themselves. A larkspur cannot
lecture on tho nature of a snowflake it
neves' saw a snowflakoj and those people
who have always lived in tho summer of
prosperity cannot talk to those who are
frozen in disaster. God keeps aged jeo
plo in the world, I think, for this very
work of sympathy. TJtfy have been
through all these trials. They know all
that which irritates and all that which
soothes. If there are men and women
hero who have old people in tho house,
or near at hand so they can easily reach
them, I congratulate, tem,. fconVP of its
have had trials in life, and although wo
have had many friends around about us,
we have wished that father and mother
were still alive, that we might go
and tell them, perhaps, they ppuld
not say much, but it would have
leen such a comfort to have them around.
These aged ones who have boen r.U
through tho trials of life know how to
give condolence. Cherish them; let them
lean pn your arm rthese aged people. If,
when you fpep.k ta them, ihoy cannot
hear just what you say the first time, and
you have to 6ay it a second time, when
you say it the second time, do not say it
sharply. If you do, you will be sorry for
it on the day when you take the las$ lpok
and brush pack the silvery locks frorq' the
wrinkled brow just before ilicy screw tho
lid on. Blessed be pod for the pld peo
ple ! They may not have sq much strength
to go around, but they are God's ap
pointed ministers of comfort to a broken
heart,
People who have not had trial them
selves cannot give comfort to others.
They may talk very beauti fully, and
they may give you a great deal of poetio
sentiment; but while poetry is perfume
that smells sweet, it makes a very poor
salve. If you have a crave in vour path
way, and somebody comes and covers it
all over with dowers, it is a grave yef.
Those who have not had grief them
selves know not the mystery of a broken
heart. Ihey know not the meaning of
childlessness, and the having of no one
to put to bed at night, or the standing in
a rooiri where every book, and pjpture and,
door is full of memories the door mat
where she sat, the pup out of which she
drank the place where she stood at the
door and clapped her hands the odd fig
ures that sho scribbled the blocks she
built into a house. Ah no, you must have
trouble yourself before you can comfort
trouble in others, put pome, all ye who,
have been bereft and ye who have been
comforted in your sorrows, pnd stand
around these afflicted souls, and say to
them, "I had that very sorrow myself.
God comforted me, and he will comfort
you;7 pnd thap wuj go righp g the spot,
In other words, tq comfort others, we
must have faith in Pod, practical ex
perience, and good, sound common sense.
But there are three or four considera
tions that I will bring this morning to
those who are sorrowful and distressed,
and that we c?m always bring $o then,
knowing that they will effect a cure.
And the first consideration is that God
sends our troubles in love, I often hear
people in their troubles say, "Why, I
wonder what God has against me t
They seem tq think Pod has eome grudge
against them because trouble and mis
fortune have come. Oh, no. Do you
not remember that passage of Scripture,
"Whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth; 1
A child comes in with a very bad splinter
in its hand and you try to extract it. It
is a very painful operation. The child
draws back from you, but you persist.
You are going to take that splinter out,
so you take the child with a gentle but
firm grasp, for, although there may be
pain in it; the splinter must come out.
A ml it is love that dictates it, and makes
j-ou persist. Juy menus, l really
think that nearly all cur sorrows in this
world are only the hand of our Father
extracting some thorn. If all these sor
rows were sent by enemies, I would say.
arm yourselves against them'; and, "as in
tropical clinics, when a tiger comes down
from the mountains and carries off a
child from the village, the neighbors
band together and go into, the forest and

Father eo kind, to loving,, so gentle, that
the prop! let, speaking of his tenderness
and mercy, drops the idea of a father,
and says, "As ono whom his mother
comfortcth, no will I comfort you."
Again I remark, thero is comfort In
tho thought tliat God, by all this process,
is going to make you useful. Do you
know that those who accomplish the
most for God and heaven have all been
tinder the harrow? Show me a man that
has done anything for Christ in this day
in a public or private place, who has had
no trouble and whoso path has been
smooth. Ah, no.
I onco went through an ax factory,
and I saw them take tho bars of iron and
thrust them into tho terrible furnaces.
Then besweated workmen with long
longs . stirred tho blaze. Then they
brought out a bar of iron and put it into
a crushing machine, and tlittfthey put
it. ut'uvmi jaws mat on ll in iwuiii.
Then they put it on an anvil, and there
were great liammers swung by ma
chinery eacn one a hair ton in
weight that went thump! thump!
thump! If that iron could have
spoken it would havo said, "Why
all this beating? Why must I be
pounded any more than any other iron?
Iho workmen would have said: "Wo
want to make axes out of vou, keen,
sharp axes axes with which to hew
down the forest, and build the ship, and
erect houses, and cairy on a thousand
enterprises of civilization. That's the
reason we pound you." Now, God puts
a soul into iho furnace of trial, and then
it is brought out and run through the
crushing machine, and then it comes
down on the anvil, and upon it blow
after blow, blow after blow, an! the soul
cries out, "O Lord, what dots all this
mean?" God says, "I want to

Christian friends, wo want more tools in

split with; we have enough of these, Not
more bores with which to drill I we have
too many bpr-es, What we really want
is keen, sharp, well tempered axes, and
if there be any other way of making them
than in the hot furnace, and on the hard
anvil, and under the heyy hammer, I
do not kflpw- what ;t js, Remember that
if God brings any kind of chastisement
upon you, it is only to make you useful.
Do not sit down discouraged, and say,
"I have no more reason for livinjr.'l

was so much reason for your living as
now 1 By thia ordeal ypu liayo leen con
secrated A PViest of tho Motit High God.
Go out and do your whole work for the
.Master.
Again, there is comfort in the thought
that all our troubles are a revelation.
Have ypa eyf? thought of it in that con
nection'? The man who has never been
through chastisement is ignorant about a
thousand things in his soul he ought to
know. For instance, here is a man who
prides himself on his chaerfuhiess of
character.. Jld has no patience with any
body who is depressed u fcpinta. Oh. it
is easy for hjui t,q bo cheerful, with his
fine house, his filled wardrobe and well
strung instruments of music and tapes

bank waiting fov- somo permanent In
vestment, it is easy for liim to bo cheer

pieces and his house goes down under
the sheriff's hammer and the banks will
not have anything tq dq vith hu paiwr.
SuppffSrt thpse, peoplo. who. vi-ere' once
elegantly entertained at his table get so
short sighted htx 'cannot

then? Is it so easy to be cheerful?
It is easy to be cheerful "in the heme.

and the' childish voice that asked so
many questions will ask no more. Then
is it so easy? When a man wakes up
and finds that his resources are all gone,
he begins to yebel, and lie sa vs, 'bd i3
hud, God is outrageous. He had no
business to do this to me." My friends,
those of us who have been through
trouble know what a sinful and re
bellious heart we have, and haw unieh
God has to put up Vfitu ftftw much
we need pardon. It is only m the hffht
of a flannug furnace that we pan learn
our own weakness and our own lack of
moral resource.
There is also a great deal of comfort in
the fact that there will bo a family re
construction in a better place. Fivn
Scotland, pr England, pr- Ireland a child
emigrates to this country. It is very
hard parting, but he comes, after a while
writing home as to what a pood land it
is. Another brother comes, a sister
comes, and another, aud after a while
the mother comes, and. after fi while thP
father comes, and npw they ave all here,
and they have a time of great congratu
lation and a very pleasant reunion.
Well, it is just so with our families ; they
aro emigrating to a better land. Now,
one goes out. Oh, how hard it is tqpcu;t
with him! Another cpes- Oh, how
hard t is io part" witu her! Anil an
other, and another, and we ourselves
will after a while go over, and then we
will bo tocether. Oh. what a. reunion !
Do you believe that? "Yes," ypu. py,'
You do not You do not believe it as
you believe other things. If you
did, and with the same emphasis,
why, it would take nine-tenths of your
trouble off your heart. The "fact
is, heaven to many of us is a ST6 $S
It is away off somewhere, filled with an
uncei-tam and indefinite population. That
is the kind of heaven that many of us
dream about; but it is the most tremen
dous fact in all the universe xi heaven
of the Gospel, pup departed friends are
not afloat. The residence in which you
live is not so real as the residence in
winch they 6tay. You are afloat, you
who do not know in the morning what
will happen before' night. They are
housed and safe forever. Do not, there
fore, pity your departed friends who have
died in Christ. They do not need any of
your pity. Yrou might as well send a
letter of condolence to Queen Victoria; on
her obscurity, " or. to "the Itothschilds
on their poverty, as to pity those
who have ' voh' the palm. " Do. not
say of those who are departed,
"Foot child J' Poor father!" "Poor

Will it not bo pleasant when you can bo

tho place where wo go to dress for the
glorious resurrection, and wo will como

from tho mountains back of Atnoy,
China; and another will como up from
tho seaofr Cape Ilatteras; and thirty will
come up from Greenwood; and I "shall
know them lietterthan lever knew them
here. And your friends they may be
across the sea, but the trumpet that
rounds hero will sound there. You will
come up on just tho same day. Soino
morning you havo overslept" yourself,
and you open your eyes, and seo"tlit tho
sun is high in the heavens, and you say,
I have overslept, and I must bo up and
off." So you will open your eyes on the
morning or the resurrection, in !' full
blaze of God's light, and you will .say,
"I must be up and away." Oh yes, you
will come up, and there will bo a reunion,
a reconstruction of your family. I like

Mr. Halburton -said in hi3 last moments,
"I thank God that I ever lived, and that
I havo a father in heaven, and a mother

C;st-lar's Expulsion from Homo)
Senor Castelar gives a dramatic picture
of his expulsion t'rom Rome, in the dav
before v lotov Emanuel entered that capi
tal. The landlord of lus hotel, having
received a domiciliary visit from tho
police, went to his guest and asked him
in a terrmed manner, "W hv did vou
conceal ycoi? rank from me?" "M-
rank? I havo none to conceal." '-Your
importance?" am not of any conse
quence. "You are a distinguished pev
son." "I distinguished?" said Senor
Castelar; "bah J you are mocking me."
"I hayp kept tho police from cominjr to
your chambers by 6aylng that I would
communicate to vou their orders."
What orders?" "The orders to leave
Rome immediatelv. " Senor Castelar
had written books that were on the "In
dex Expurgatorius," and besides he was
told that he was ft friend of Garibaldi
and Iilazziiii, a democrat and revolution
ist, and that if he did not leave Rome by
the first train in the moraine: he would
bo imprisoned, and might even be
hanged. It was then 9:30; the next
train left at 10, and Emilia Castelar left
in it. New York Tribune
A Prediction Concerning Gladstone.
The golden wedding of Mr. and Mr3.
Gladstone, which was celebrated recently,
recalls a reminiscence of the day, noT
more than half a century- distant, when
Mrs. Gladstone grst saw her future hus
band. It was at a dinner party in Lon
don, where the younger Miss Glynne's
attention was directed by an eminent
statesman who was by her side to a tall,
iandsome young member of mrliament
wlQ fat opposite. "Do you see that
young man?" said he. ''note him well
and mark my words. If his life is spared
he will one day be prime minister." Misa
Glynne naturally took keen noie of Mr.
Gladstone, but they did not speak, nor
was it until some time afterward that
6he made his acquaintance in Italy. The
prediction, however, has been thrice ful
filled, and Mrs. Gladstone will probably
have the gratification of seeing it fulfilled
the fourth time before long. Home
