Iu bin sorr.on last Sunday Dr. Talmage chus- a subject of uuivermil interest, viz., "Buhhick Trouble," the text selected he log Kzckie) xxvii., 24, "Thcne were thy merchant in ml sorts of things."

Some of the best meu ill the hind have faltered, n.cii whose heartH :ire enlisted in every good work and whose hand have blest (I every great charity. The htiroh of God f-nn afford to extend to them her sym pathies and plead before heiiv mi with ail availing prayer. The schools such men have established, the churches they have built, the asylums and tieiielit in ut it u tiong they have fostered, will be their eu logy long after their banking institution re forgotten. Such men can never fail. They have their troasires in Itimkx that never break and will be millionaire fur ever, lint 1 thought it wo.ild be appro priate today, nnd useful, for me to talk bout the trial and temptation of our business men and try to offer some cura tive prescriptions. Limited Capital. In the Crst place, I have to remark that gr-at many of our busbies men feel ruinous trials and temptations, coming to them from small and limited capital in business. It is everywhere understood that it takes now three or four times as much to do business well as once it did. Once a few hundred dollars were turned Into goods the men-hunt would be his own store sweejier, bis own salesman, his own bookkeeper; be would manage all the affairs himself, and everything would be net profit. Wonderful changes have come; costly apparatus, extensive adver tising, exorbitant store rents, heavy tax ation, expensive agencies, are only parts of the demand made ,ion our i-ommercial men, and when they have found them elves In such circumstances with mall capital they have sometime been tempt ed to run against the rock of moral and financial destruction. This terrmtation of limited capital has mined men In two ways. Sometimes they have shrank down onder the temptation. They have.jieldod the battle liefore the first shot was fired. At the first bard dun they surrendered. Their knees knocked together at the fall of the auctioneer's hammer. They blanch ed at the financial peril. They did not un derstand that there is such a thing as heroism in merchandise, and that there are Waterloo of the counter, and that a man can ripht no brarer battle with the word than he can with be yardstick. Their souls melted in them because su gars were up when they wanted to buy nd down when they wanted to sell, bihI unsalable goods were on the shelf and bad debts in their ledger. The Kioom of their countenances: overshadowed een their dry goods and groceries. Despond ency, coming from limited capital, blasted them, tubers have felt it in a different way. They have said: "Here 1 have been trudging along. I have I n tryi.ig t. be honest ull these years. I find it is of no use. Now it is innke or break." The small craft that could have stood the si team is put but beyond the lighthouse, on the great sea of speculation, lie borrows a few thousand dollars from friends who dare not refuse him, and be goes barter ing on a large scale. He reasons in this way; "Perhaps 1 may succeed, and if 1 don't I will be no worse off than I am now, for ? 1iM).fM taken from nothing nothing remain.' Slock are the dice with which he gamble. lie bought for'u few dollar van! trails of Western land. Some man .it the F.nst. living on a fat homestead, n ts 'his gambler of fortune and is per-onded to trade off his estate for lots in Western city with large avenue, and .ostly pal aces, and Inl.e steamers smoking (it the wharves, and rail trains coini.ig down with lightning rpeod front every direc tion. There it is nil on paper. The city has never been built., nor the riilroa.l constructed, but everything .ints that way, and the thing will be done is sun as joil live. Well, the man goes on. stop ping at no fraud or outrage. In his splen did equipage be dashes past, while the honest laborer looks up and wipes the sweat from bis brow and ay, "1 wonder where that man got nil his money." After while the bubble bursls. Creditor nisli In. The law ciutche. but find nothing in its grasp The men who Acre swindled ay, "I don't know how I could have ever been decelvid by that man," and the pic torials in handsome wood cut et forth the hero who in ten year had geiiin enough to fail for ll'si.tsMl. And that i the process by which many have been tempted through liinit.itloii of capital to rush into labyrinth from which they could Hot be extricated. I would not want to chnin honest enterprise. I would not want to block up any of the avenue for honest accumulation that oien before young men. On the contrary, 1 would like to cheer I hem on and rejoice whim they reach the goal, but when there me such multitude of men going to miu for Ibis life and the life that i to come, through wrong notion of what are lawful ihere of enterprise, It i the duty of the church of God, and the minister of religion, and the friend of all young men, to itter a plain, emphatic, unmistakable protest. These are the Influence that drown men Id destruction and perdition. Oversasletr. Again, a great many of our bullosa men are' tempted to over unttetjr nd car. Yon know that Marly all commercial busineses are overdone in Thi day. Smit ten with the love of oulck rain, our cities are crowded with men resolved to be rich at all hazard. They do not care now moiiev comes, if It onlv come. Our best merchant are thrown into ompetltion with men of more mean and e con science, and If an opportunity of accumu lation be neglected one hour some one else pick it up. From January to Decem ber the struggle goes on. Night give no quiet to limb tossing in restlessness nor in . I, pain thut will not atoll thinking. The dre.im are harrowed by imaginary loss and Hushed by Imaginary gains, r.veu ll,.. Kul.l.otli .unnot Hum hack the tide of anxiety: for this wave of worldlines dashes clear over the diuretic and leaves its foam on Bible and prayer hooks. Men who are living on salaries or tiy me culti vation of the soil cannot underst md the wear and tear of the body ami mind to M-litftt nttr merchitiit m re stibiected. when tl.r.v ,1.. not krw.sr hut that their liveli hood and their business bon-.r are dep-nd ent upon the uncertainties ot tne nexi lionr This excitement of the bruin, this corroding care of the heart, this strain of effort that exhaust the spirit, semis a ,.r,.ot , t of our best men. in middle life, into the grave, their life dashed out against money safes. I Icy go 'vnu loeir store on their backs. They trudge like camels, sweating, from AlepjHj lo Da mascus. They make their life a cruci fixion. Standing behind .lenk and coun ters, banished from the fresh :iir, weighed down by carking cares, they are w many suicide. Oh, 1 wish 1 could to-day rub out some of these lines of care; that 1 could lift some of the burdens from the heart; that I could give relaxation to some of these worn muscles. It is tune for you to begin to take It a little easier. Do your best, nd then trust (lod for the rest! Do pot fret. Cod manages all the affair of your life, and he manages them for the best. Consider the lilies they" always have robe. Behold the fowls of the uir-tbey always have nests. Take a long breath. Bethink hetime that Cod did not make you for a park horse. Dig yourself nut from among the hogshead and the shelves and In the light of the holy Sabbath day resolve that you will give to the winds your fear and your fretfulness and your distresses. You brought nothing into the world, and it Is very certain you can carry nothing out. Having food and raiment, be therewith content. The merchant cam home from the store. There had been a great disaster there. He opened the front door and said in the midst of his family circle: "I am mine.!. Everything ed.". His wife said: "I am left" And the little child threw up Its hand and said: "rap. I ajn here, l ne aged grandmother, seated in the room, said: "Then you have all'the promises ot tiA k.;,!. John." And he burst into tear, and said: "God forgive me that I have been o ungrateful. I nd I have a great many thing left God forgive me. Neglect of Home Iutle. Again I remark that many of our busl- . mD ro temnted to neglect their home dutiea. How often It t that the .nd the hnme eem to clash, hut there ought not to be any collision. It is often the case that the father is the mere treasurer of the family, a sort of agent to see that they have dry good and gro ceries. The work of family government he does not touch. Once or twice in a year he call the children up on a Sabbath afternoon when he ha a half hour he does not exactly know what to do witn. ami in v,if htiiF hn iliscinlines the children .1 nl,M.,a tham n Ttfl mrroctn their fault and gives them a great deal of good ad vice, and then wonders all tne rest oi me. iV,ot his children do not do better when they have the wonderful advantage of rliat semiannual castigatlon. 11... fn,;if lohle which ought to be the place for pleasant discussion and cheerful ness, often becomes the place oi perilous expedition.

ValM of tk Soak Again 1 remark that a great many of or bnalnesa men are tempted to put the ttainnMSt of aunaj above the value of the oul. It Is a grand thing to have plenty of money. The more you get of It the better, If it come honestly and go usefully. For the lack of it Bicknea die without medicine, and hunger find Its coffin In the empty bread tray, and naked nes ahiver for lack of clothe and fare. When I hear a man In canting tirade guint money a Christian man as though it had no possible use on earth and he had no interest in it at all, I corns almost to think that the heaven that would be appropriate for him would be an everlasting isjortiouse. While, my friends, we do admit there ia such a thing a the lawful use of money a profitable use of money- let u recognize also the fact that money cannot satisfy a man' soul; that it cannot glitter in the dark val- ey; that it cannot pay our fare aero the Jordan of death; that It cannot unlock the gate of heaven. There are men In all occupations who seem to act a though they thought that a pack of bond and mortgugi could he traded off for a title to heaven, and as though gold would be a lawful tender in that place where it i so common thnt they make pavements out of it. Salvation by Christ is the only salva tion. Treasures in heaven are the only Incorrupt il!e treasures. Have you ever ciphered out in the rule of loss and gain the sum, "What shall It profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soulV" However fine your apparel, the winds of death will flutter it like rags. Homespun and a threadbare coat have sometimes been the shadow of co.ning robe made in the blood of the I.amb. The pearl of great prii-e is worth more than any gem you can bring from the ocean, than Australian or Brazilian mines strung in one cananet. Swk after Cod, find his righteousness. nnd all shall be well here; all shall he well hereafter. Hhlpwreck, Some of you remember the ship wreck of the Central America. That noble steamer had, I think, about !VK) passengers alsiurd. Suddenly the storm came, and the surges trampled the decks and swung into ths hatches, ami there went up a hundred voiced dealh shriek. The foam on the jaw of the wave. The pitching of the steamer a though it were leaping a mountain. The dismal flare of the signal rockets. The long cough of the steam pipe. The hi of extinguished furnaces. The walking of God on the wave! The steamer went not down without a Strug-, gle. A the passenger stationed them selves In rows to hale out tlie vessel, hark to the thump of the buckets, as men un used to toil, with blistered hands and strained muscle, tug for their lives. There i a sail seen against the sky. the flash of the distress gun is noticed; its voice hoard not, for it is choked in the louder booming of the sen. A few passengers es caped, but the steumor gave one great lurch and waa gone! So there are aorne men who sail on prosperously in life. All's well; all's well. But at last some financial disaster cornea a euroclydon. Down they go! The Isittom of the commercial sea is strewn with shattered hulks. But be cause your prois rty got1 do not let your soul go. Though all else perish, save that; for I have to tell yon of a more stupendous shipwreck than that which I just men tioned. Cisl launched this world 0,1X10 years ago. It bus bi-en going on under freight of mountains and immortals, but one day it will stagger at the cry of fire. The timbers of rock will burn, the moun tains flame like masts and the clouds like sails in the judgmeut hurricane. Then Cod shall take the passengers off the deck, and from the !rtha those who have long been asleep in Jesus, and he will set them far beyond the reach of storm and peril. But how many shall go down will never he known until it shall be an nounced one day in heaven; the shipwreck of a world! So many millions saved! So many millions drowned! Oh, my dear bearers, whatever you lose, though your houses go, though your lands go, though all your earthly possessions perish, may God Almighty.' through the bhsid of the everlasting covenant, save all your souls. "The Scarlet Letter"' Druniati.cd. our recent plays are mainly taken from French sources, and an attempt Is often. If vainly, iiitule to retain their dramatic effect, nnd yet to exclude that treatment which makes the essence of a French work written for French audi ences. I'lnvs socio often lo be vamped up for a long run and fur a short life in the higher koiiso of dramatic life. We also froitieniIy adapt novels, mostly of a melodramatic character, for the stage, tine pregnant instance may Kililleo--the "Scarlet Letter" lias been preM'tiicd with ii "happy ondiir,'." O shade of Injured Hawthorne! A very fine narrative, which depends Uhiii psy chological analysis, cannot well be made Into a good drama. Ac tion Is so much coarser than thought, that the morbid pathology of a story of passion, guilt and sorrow, with every motive dis sected nnd every character analyzed, becomes ft mere cotnmonpbiee adultery and a very ordinary melodrama. Hawthorne Is to be rend, not seen. His power consists In analytical study, anil bis line essence escapes the real ism of the stage. That which Is left for noting Is the more residuum, the vile body, of his delicate, almost supor subtlc conception. He Is a grout au thor, but tint mi essentially dramatic one. Ills method escapes the acting drama. A playwright who would deal with the "Scarlet Letter" should not attempt to ilramntl'.e the novel, but should treat It as Shakespeare used the chronicles of linker or of Hollnshed. The work should merely auggest to the dramatist certain Incident and charac ters. The Gentleman's Magazine. Vast Damage, It will coat a million drachmas to put the Parthenon, the Temple of Thesua, and the other monumeuta In Athens damaged by laat year's earthquake In a safe condition. . An appeal for kelp will be tent out to all countries. GOWNS AND GOWNING. WOMEN GIVE MUCH ATTENTION TO WHAT THEY WEAR. Brief Glances st Fancies Feminine, Frlvo loaa.

Pule green satin merveilleux is the main fabric, the skirt being plain, and the bodice fronts draped as Indi cated. All sorts of delicacies are being turn ed out for the neck. They Include "sets," Implying collars and cuffs, fichus, meaning almost any complica tion by way of neck finish; ruffles and ruches, bows to which are attached all sorts of elaborations, and "front" that really mean almost a whole bodice In some cases. The word rosette, too, Is accepted as a distinguishing term for a dissertation In tabs and tinkering of which the rosettes form only a small part. With bows that are so simple as to be readily recognizable as such, a trick Is In favor that consists of stick lng them all over a dress In a regular pattern, the rule being that the smaller the bows, the more It takes to mark the diagram. In the size that adorns pic tured dress No. 4, five Is enough to di vide a woman's front Into stylish plots. The general elaboration of neck "fix lu's" and the smallness of fashionable capes makes It difficult at times to tell the difference between collar and cape.
