BRINGING SOULS TO THE SHORE
OF SAFETY.
.t Formon from Jonah 1 : xiii , xiv : r"Tluo
Men Itowod bard to Bring It to file
Land , but Could Not , Wherefore Tstey
Crled Unto the Lord. "
IlriilohrxN , Oct. 14.-Rev. Dr. Tal-
mage , who is still absent on his round-
the-world tour , has selected as the subject -
ject of to-day's sermon , through the
press : "The Oarsmen Defeated. "
Navigation in the Mediterranean sea
always was perilous , especially so in
early times. Vessels were propelled
partly by sail and partly by oar.
When , by reason of great stress of
weather , it was necessary to reef the
canvas or haul it ln , then time vessel
was entirely dependent upon the oars ,
sometimes twenty or thirty of them
on either side the vessel. You woutld
not venture outside your harbor with
such a craft as my text finds Jonali
sailing in ; but he had not much choice
of vessels. lie was running away roi
the Lord ; and when a man is running
away from the Lord , lie has to run
very fast.
God had told Jonah to go to Nineveh -
veh to preach about the destruction of
that city. Jonah disobeyed. That always -
ways makes rough water , whether in
the Mediterranean or , the Atlantic ,
or , the Pacific , or the Caspian sea. It is
a very hard thing to scare sailors. I
have seen them , when the brow of the
vessel was almost under water , and
they were walking the deck knee deep
in the surf , and the small boats by the
side of the vessel had been crushed as
small as kindling wood , whistling as
though nothing had happened ; but the
Bible says that these mariners of
whom I speak were frightened. That
which sailors call "a hump of a sea"
had become a blinding , deafening ,
swamping fury. low mad the wind
can get at the water , and the water
can get at the wind , you do not know
unless you have been spectators. I
have in my house a piece of a sail of a
ship , no larger than the palm of my
hand. That piece of canvas was all
that was left of the largest sail of the
ship Greece that went into the storm
" 00 miles off Newfoundland. Oh , what
a night o that was ! I suppose it was in
some such storm as this that Jonah was
caught.
He knew that the tempestwas on his
account , and he asked time sailors to
throw him overboard. Sailors are a
generous hearted race , and they resolved -
solved to make their escape , if possible ,
without resorting to such extreme
measures. The sails are of no use , and
so they lay hold on their oars. I see
the long bank of shining blades on
either side of the vessel. Oh ! how they
did pull , the bronzed seamen , as they
laid back into the oars. But rowing on
the sea ms very different from rowing
upon a river ; and as the vessel hoists ,
the oars skip the wave and miss the
stroke , and the tempest laughsto scorn
the flying paddles. It is of no use , no
use. There comes a wave that crashes
the lnst mast , and sweeps the oarsmen
from their places , and tumbles everything -
thing in the confusion of impending
shipwreck , or , as my text has it , "The
men rowed hard to bringit to the land ;
but they could not ; wherefore they
cried unto the Lord. "
This scene is very suggestive to me ,
and I pray God I may have grace and
strength enough.to represent it intelligently -
gently to you. Years ago I preaehed.a
sermon on another phase of this very
subject , and I got a letter from bus-
ton , Texas , the writer saying that the
reading of that sermon in London had
led him to God. And I received another
letter from South Australia , saying that
the reading of that sermon in Australia
had brought several souls to Christ.
And then , I thought , why not take
another phase of the same subject , for
perhaps that God who can raise in
power that which is sown in weakness
may now , through another phase of the
same subject , bring salvation to the
people who shall hear and salvation to
the people who shall read. Men and
women , who know how to pray , lay
hold of the Lord God Almighty and
wrestle for the blessing.
Bishop Latimer would stop sometimes -
times in the midst of his argumentand
say , 'Now , I will tell you a fable ; "
and to-day I would like to bring the
scene of the text as an illustration of a
most important religious truth. As
those Mediterranean oarsmen trying to
bring Jonah ashore , were discomfited ,
I have to tell you that they were not
the only men who have broken down
on their paddles , and have been
obliged to call on the Lord for help. I
want to say that the unavailing efforts
of those Mediterranean oarsmen have
a counterpart in the efforts we are
making to bring souls to tire' shore of
safety and set their feet on the Rock
of Ages. You have a father , or
mother , or husband , or wife , or child ,
or near friend , who is not a Christian.
There have been times when you have
been in agony about their salvation. A
minister of Christ , whose wife was dying -
ing without any hope in Jesus , walked
the floor , wrung his hands , cried bitterly -
terly , and said , "I believe I shall go
insane , for I know she is not prepared
to meet God. " And there may have
baen days of sickness in your household -
hold , when you feared it would be a
fatal sickness ; and how closely you
examined the face of the doctor as he
came in and scrutinized the patient ,
and left the pulse , and you followed
him into the next loom , and said ,
' There isn t any danger , is there ,
doctor ? " And the hesitation and the
uncertainty of the reply made two
eternities flash before your vision. And
then you went and talked to the sick
.one about the great future. Oh , there
are those here who have tried to bring
their friends to God. They have been
unable to bring'them to the shore of
safety. ; They are no nearer that
point than they were twenty years
. r
i
ago. You think youhave got them almost -
most to the shore , when you are swept
back again. What shall you do ? Put
down the oar ? Oh , no ! I do not advise
that ; but I do advise that you appeal to
that God to whom the Mediteranean
oarsmen appealed-the God who could
silence the.tempest and bring the ship
In safety to the port. I tell you , my
friends. that there has got to be a good
deal of praying before our families are
brought to Christ. Ah ! it is an awful
thing to have half g hourehold on cue
side the line , and the oUle : part the
household on the other sideof the line !
Two vessels part on the ocean of
eternity , one- going to the right and
the other to the left-farther apart ,
and mfrsher ; apart-until the signals
cease to be recognized , and . there are
only two specks on the horizon , and
then they are lost to sight forever !
I have to tell you that the unavailing -
ing efforts of these lrediterranean oarsmen -
men have a counterpart in the efforts
some of us are making to bring our
children to the shore of safety. There
never.were so many temptations foi
young people as there are row : The
literary and the social influence seem
-o be atrainst their spiritual interests
Christ seems to be driven almost entirely -
tirely from the school and the pleasurable -
able concourse , yet God knows 110w
anxious we are of our children. We
can not think of going into heaven
without them. We do not want to
leave this life while they are tossing on
the waves of temptation and away
from God. From which of them could
we consent to be eternally separated ?
Would it be the son ? Would it be the
daughter ? Would it be the eldest ?
Would it be the youngest ? Would it
be the one that is well and stout , or
the one that is sick ? Oh , I
Bear some parent saying to-night ,
"I have tried my best to bring
my children to Christ , I Have
laid hold of the oars until they bent in
my grasp , and I have braced myself
against the ribs of the boat , and I have
pulled for their eternal rescue ; but I
can't bet them to Christ. " Then I ask
you to imitate the men of the text , and
cry mightily unto God. We want more
importune praying for children , such
as the father indulged in when he had
tried to bring his sit sons to Christ ,
and they had wanderea off into dissi-
pation. Then lie got down in his prayers -
ers , and said , "O , God ! take away my
life , if through that means my sons
may repent and be brought to Christ ; "
and the Lord startlingly answered the
prayer , and in a few weeks the fattier
was taken away , and through the
solemnity the six sons fled unto God.
Oil , that father could afford to die for.
the eternal welfare of his children ! He
rowed hard to bring them to the hand ,
but could not , and then he cried unto
the Lord.
I wish I could put before my un-
pardoned readers , their own helpless-
ness. No human arm was ever strong
enough to unlock the door of heaven.
No foot was ever mighty enough to
break the shackles of. sin. No oarsman
swarthy enough to row himself into
God's harbor. The wind is against
you. The tide is against you. The
law is against you. Ten thousand corrupting -
rupting influences are against you.
Helpless and undone. Not so helpless
a sailor on his plank , mid-Atlantic.
Not so helpless a traveler girded by
twenty miles of prairie on fire. Prove
it you say. I will prove it. John VI :
44 : "No man can come to me , except
the Father wtich hatji sent ins draw
teem. "
But while I have shown your helplessness -
lessness , Iwant to put by the side of it
the power and willingness of Christ to
save you. I think it was in 1656 a vessel -
sel was bound for Portugal , but it was
driven to pieces on an unfriendly coast.
The captain had his son with limn , and
with the crew they wandered up the
beach , and started on the long journey
to find relief.
After awhile the son
fainted by reason of hunger and the
length of the way. The captain said to
the crew , "Carry my boy for me on
your shoulders. " They carried him on ;
but the journey was long , that after
awhile the crew fainted from hunger
and from weariness , and could carry
him no longer. Then time father rallied -
lied his almost wasted energy , and
took up his own boy , and put
him on his shoulder , and carried him
on mile after mile , mile after mile , until -
til , overcome himself by hunger and
weariness , he too fainted by the way.
The boy lay down and died , and the
father , just at time tune rescue came to
him , also perished , living only long
enough to tell the story-sad story ,
indeed ! But glory be to God that
Jesus Christ is able to take us up out
of our shipwrecked and dying condition -
tion , and put us on the shoulder of his
strength , and by the omnipotence of
his gospel bear us on through all the
journey of this life , and at last through
the opening gates of heaven ! Ile is
mighty to save. Though your sin be
long and black , and inexcusable -
ble , and outrageous , the very
moment you believe I will proclaim -
claim pardon-quick , full , grand , unconditional -
conditional , uncompromising , illimitable -
able , infinite. Oh , the grace of God ! I
am overwhelmed when I come to think
of it. Give me a thousand ladders ,
lashed fast to each other , that I may
scale the height. Let the line run' out
with the anchor until all the cables of
the earth are exhausted , that we may
touch the depth. Let the arcangel fly
in circuit of eternal ages , in trying to
sweep around this theme. Oh , the
grace of God ! It is so high. It is so
uroad. It is so deep. Glory be to my
God , that where man's oar- gives out ,
God's arm begins ! Why will ye carry
your sins and your sorrows any longer
when Christ offers to take them ? 11'ny
will you wrestle down your fears when
this moment you might give up and be
saved. Do you not know that everything -
thing is ready ?
Plenty of room at the feast. Jesus
has the ring of his love all ready to put
upon your hand. Come now . and sit
down , ye hungry ones , at the banquet.
Ye who are in rays of sins ta ] e the

robe of Christ. Ye who are swamped
by the breakers around you , cry to
Christ to pilot you into smooth , steel
waters. On account of the peculiar
phase of the subject , I have drawn my
present illustrations , you see , chiefly ;
from the water. I remember that a
vessel went to pieces on the Berlnudas
a great many years ago. It had a vast
treasure on board. But the vessel being -
ing sunk , no effort was made to raise
it. After many years had passed , a
company of adventurers went out from
England , and after a long voyage they
reached the place where the vessel was
said to have sunk. They got into a
small boat and hovered over the place.
Then the divers went down ,
and they broke through what looked
like a limestone covering , I and
the treasures rolled out-what was
found afterward to be , in American
money , worth 81,500,000 , and the
foundation of a great business house.
At that time the whole world rejoiced
over what was called the luck of these
adventurers. Oh , ye who have been
rowing toward the shore , and have not
been able to reach it , I want to tell
you to-night that your boat hovers
over infinite treasure ! All the riches
of God are at your feet. Treasures
that never fail , and crowns that never
grow dim. Who will go down now
and seek them ? Who will dive for the
pearl of great price ? Who will be prepared -
pared for life , for death , for judgment ,
for the long eternity ? See two hands
of blood stretched out toward thy soul ,
as Jesus says , "Come unto me , all ye
that labor and are heavy laden , and I
will give you rest. "
Cold Snaps ,
"We're Lavin' some pretty wintrish
weather , " said old Daddy Wotherspoon
to Uncle Sammy Honniwell , as the two
gentlemen met near the City Hall.
"Right for'ard weather for the season. "
"Jilt so ; jist so , " conceded Uncle
Sammy. "Reminds me of the fall of
1831. It commenced 'long the fore part
of November , and froze stilt till March.
Good , smart weather , too. I remember
that it was so cold in Brooklyn that
November that bilin' water froze over a
hot fire. "
Daddy Wotherspoon looked at him
and braced himself. "Yes , yes , " said
he , "I mind it well. That's the fall the
milk , froze in the cows. But the cold
season was in 1827. It commenced m
the middle of October and ran through
to April. All the oil froze in the lamps ,
and eve didn't have a light until spring
sct'in. "
"Ay , ay , " responded Uncle Sammy ,
growing rigid. " It's just like yesterday
to me. I walked 140 miles due east
from Sandy Hook , on the ice , and slid
back , owing to the convexity of the
earth , you know. It was down hill
comin' this way. But that wasn t as
cold as the winter of 1821. That season
commenced in September , and the mercury -
cury didn't rise a degree till May. Don't
you remember now we used to breathe
hard , let it freeze , cut a hole in it ,
and crawl in for shelter ? You haven't
forgotten that ? "
"Not I , " said Daddy Wotherspoon ,
after a short pause , "That's the winter -
ter we used to give the horses melted
lead to drink , and keen a hot fire under
'em so it wouldn't harden till they got it
down. But that was nothin' to the spell
of 1817. We begun to feel it in the latter -
ter part of August , and she boomed
stiddy till the 30th of June. I got
through the whole spell by living in an
ice-house. It was too cold to go out
doors , and I jist camped in an ice-
house. You remember that season of
1817. That's the winter we wore undershirts -
dershirts of sand-paper to keep up a
ir ction. "
"Well , I should say I did , " retorted
Uncle Sammy. "What ! remember
1817 ? 'Deer : I do. That was the spell
when it took a steam grindstone four
days to light a match. Ay , ay ! But
tlo you know I was uncomfortably warm
that winter ? "
"How so ? " demanded Daddy Woth-
erspoon , breathing hard.
"Runnin' around yonr ice-house to
fmd out where you got in. It was an
awful spell , though. How long did it
last ? From August till the 30th of
June ? I guess you're right. But you
mind time snap of 1813 , don't you ? It
commenced on the 1st of July , and went
around and lapped over a week. That
year the smoke frozs in the chimneys
: lad we had to blast it out with dyna-
mite. 1 think that was the worst we
ever had. All the clocks froze up so we
didn't know the time for a year , and
when men used to set fire to their build-
in's so's to raise the rent. Yes , indeed ,
I got $3,000 a month for four burnin'
buildin's. There was a heap of suffer-in'
that winter , because we lived on alcohol -
hol and phosphorus , till the alcohol
froze , and then we eat the brimstone
ends of matches and jumped around till
they caught fire. Say , you- "
But Daddy Wotherspoon had fled.
The statistics were too much for him.-

The Esitimo and the Walrus.
To the Eskimo the walrus is the some
all-in-all that the buffalo was to the
Indian , that the camel is to the Arab ,
and the reindeer to the Iiorak. Its
flesh feeds him ; its tough hide covers
his boats. his shell-like kayak , and his
big , clumsy bidarrah , and cut into
strips it makes his harpoon lines and
dog-harness ; its oil furnishes him light
and fire , its ivory tusks are legal tender -
der for all sorts of civilized luxuries ,
such as iron and steel for spear-heads ,
knives , and even guns ; certain tissues
make good mackintoshes for Mr. and
Mrs. Innuit , and the flipper-bottoms of
the walrus make good sole-leather for
the hunter also.-St. Nicholas.
The Safrano Bose.
Of the roses grown for cut flowers in
the open air on the Riviera nine out of
ten are safranos , although this variety
is rarely grown under glass
The capital merits of the safrano is
that it will bloom and develop buds at
a temperature which is too low for any
other tea rose. We have seen old plants
of this rose grown out of doors in the
latitude of New York which have passed -
ed through several of our severe winters -
ters unharmed , with no protection beyond -
yond a thin covering of straw bound
about them.-Garden and forest.
An Ample Fund of Pleasure and health
May be derived from an ocean voyage and foreign -
eign travel But before one gets one's "sea-
legs" on , as the sailor says , the abominable
qualms , begotten of sea sickness , have usually
to be gotten over. Delicate people suffer , of
course , more than the robust from this ailment ,
but few sea travelers escape it. Against the
frightful nausea it produces , Hostetter's Stomach -
ach Bitters is a reliable defense , and is so
esteemed by tourists , commercial travelers ,
yachtsmen and mariners. An ailment akin to
sea sickness often afflicts land travelers with
weak stomachs. This is often brought on by
the jarring of a railway train. Disquietude in
the gastric region from this cause is always
remedied by the Bitters , which also prevents
and cures chills and fever , rheumatism , nervous -
ous and kidney trouble , constipation and bil-
iousness.
Grand Army Statistics.
At the rate at which tile Grand Army
lost members last year , it would take
only about ten years to disband the or-
ganization. The gross loss in membership -
ship was 67,801 , which is reduced by
accessions of 30,6G1 to a net loss of 28-
150. There were practically as many
members dismissed on delinquent reports -
ports as were mustered in , and more
than twice as many suspended as were
reinstated. Taking suspensions , delin-
quincies and discharges , honorable and
dishonorable , together , and nearly 53-
coo out of the 67,000 lost members are
accounted for. Only 7,283 , or less than
w per cent of the total membership , died
during the last year. The total membership -
bership is now only 310,683 , as against
397,223 ayear ago. This is the smallest
membership reported for many years ,
but it is quite likely to be as large as
it will ever be again. In the nature of
things the death rate willincrease , and
the causes which have led to so many
delinquincies and suspensions are very
probably permanent.-Springfield Re-

whose customers are mainly stock
brokers and other money men , sacs
he does not sell half as many high-
pricetl cigars this year as he has I
sold in former years. Until recent
times he had never kept five-cent
cigars in his place , but now they are
smoked by hundreds of people , who
often ask if they can get six for a
quarter. Several other cigar dealers
in that part of the city tell stories
of the same kind.

I'artlal Insomnia.
It has been noted that sleep is at first '
heavy and gradually becomes lighter
as the usual hour of waking is ap-
proaches. Now in some cases of insomnia -
somnia refreshing sleep is obtainer for
a brief period , which is followed by
most wearisome wakefulness. This '
condition may sometimes be overcome
by taking a light meal after the first
sleep , the blood supply being drawn
from the brain to the stomach , and at
the same time the blood is replenished
by substances formed in the process of
digestion which have a sporilie effect.
That this is probably the case is jllus-
trated by the ease with which animals
and human beings fall asleep after a
heavy meal.National Review.
