J / Octave Thanet says that men use a

* * fe * % * , hnp3 it is because there is a gaudy tri-
\ i % * umph about " chafing dish processes
B % which there is not in other cooking ex-
& ploits. Men never like to work behind
% | a screen. They enjoy the tumult and
ff V I * he crowd and the cheering when they
Wi jL W strike a telling blow. A woman is
I ' w iL nervous to see a dozen eyes on hex. Her
m % cars tingle at the good-natured com-
L \ merits. She is frightened , she loses
H \ confidence in herself. She looks fur-
V % j * lively across the table at the man for
H ' jt whom she cares for more than

A % ners that he must send his wife over
W Jf to her for a series of lessons and it is
Bk jjp all over for the poor creature at the

FESTIVITY THE SUBJECT OF
SUNDAY'S DISCOURSE.
From the Text : Bring Hither the Tat
ted Calf and Kill It Lnhe 15:2a
TVhen Sin and Sorrow Shall Be No
More Gattt. of Paradise.
all ages of the
world it has been
customary to celebrate
brate- joyful events
by festivity. The
fN
signing of treaties ,
the proclamation
cf peace , the inaug
uration of Presi
dents , the corona
te v tion of lungs , the
Christmas , the mar
riage. However much on other days of
the year our table may have stinted
Eupply , on Thanksgiving Day there
must be something bounteous. And all
the comfortable homes of Christendom
have at some time celebrated joyful
events by banquet and festivity. Some
thing has happened on the old home
stead greater than anything that has
ever happened before. A favorite son
whom the world supposed would be
come a vagabond and outlaw forever
has got tired of sight-seeing and has re
turned to his father's house. The
world said he would never come baclc.
The old man always said his son would
come back. He has been looking for
him day after day and year after year.
He knew he would come back. Now
having returned to his father's house
the father proclaims celebration. There
is in the paddock a calf that has been
kept up and fed to utmost capacity , seas
as to be ready for some occasion of joy
that might come along. Ah ! there nev
er would be a grander day on the old
homestead than this day. Let the
butchers o their work , and the house
keepers bring to the table the smoking
meat. The musicians will take their
places , and the gay groups will move up
and down the floor. All the friends and
neighbors are gathered in and an extra
supply is sent out to the table of the
servants. The father presides at the
table and says grace , and thanks God
that his long-absent boy is home again.
Oh ! how they have missed him , how
glad they are to have him back.
One brother stands pointing at the
back door and says , "This is a great ado
about nothing ; this bad boy should
have been chastised instead of greeted ;
veal is too good for him ! " But the
father says , "Nothing is too good , noth
ing is good eaough. " There sits the
young man , glad at the hearty recep
tion , but a shadow of sorrow flitting
across his brow at the remembrance oi
the trouble he had seen. All ready
now. Let the covers lift. Music. He
was dead and he is alive agaia ! He
was lost and he is found ! By such bold
imagery does the Bible set forth the
merry-making when a soul comes home
to God.
First of all , there is the new con
vert's joy. It is no tame thing to be
come 1 a Christian. The most tremendous
deus , moment in a man's life is when he
surrenders himself to God. The grand
est time on the father's homestead is
when the boy comes back. Among the
great i throng who in the parlors of our
church ' professed Christ one night was
a ' ' young man who nest morning rang
my doorbell and said : "Sir , I cannot
contain myself with the joy I feel ; 1
came here this morning to express it ;
I have found move joy in five minutes
in serving God than in all the years of
;
my prodigalitv , and I came to say so. "
You have seen , perhaps , a man run
ning for his temporal liberty and the
officers of the law after him , and you
saw . him escape , or afterward you heai
the judge had pardoned him , and how
great was the glee of that rescued man ;
but it is a very tame thing that com
pared with the running for one's ever
lasting life , the terrors of the law after
him , t.nd Christ coming in to pardon
and bless and rescue and save.
Tou remember John Bunyan in his
great story tells how the pilgrim put
his fingers to his ears , and ran , cry
ing : "Life , life , eternal life ! " A poor
car [ driver some time ago , after years
having had to struggle to support his
family , suddenly was informed that a
large inheritance was his , and there
was a joy amounting to bewilderment ;
but that is a small thing compared
with the experience of one when he
has put in his hands the title deed to
the joys , the raptures , the splendors ol
heaven , and he can truly say , "Its man
sions ; are mine , its temples are mine ,
its songs are mine , its God is mine ! "
Oh 1 , it is no tame thing to become a
Christian. , It is a merry-making. It
is > the killing of the fatted calf. It is a
;
jubilee. You know the Bible never
compares it to a funeral , but always
compares it to something delightful. It
is more apt to be compared to a ban
quet 1 than anything else. It is com
pared in the Bible to water , bright ,
flashing water , to the morning , roseate ,
Creworked , mountain transfigured
morning. I wish I could today take all
the Bible expressions about pardon ,
peace 1 , and life , and comfort , and hope ,
and heaven , and twist them into one
garland and put it on the brow of the
humblest child of God in this assem
blage , and cry : "Wear it , wear it now ,
wear it forever ; son of God , daughter of
the Lord God Almighty. " Oh , the joy
of the new convert. Oh , the gladness
of ' the Christian service. You have
seen sometimes a man in a religious
assembly get up and give his experi
ence. Well , Paul gave his experience.
He arose in the presence of two
churches , the church on earth and the
church in heaven , and he said : "Now
this r ? my experience : sorrowful , yet
always rejoicing poor , yet making
many rich having nothing , yet pos
sessing all things. " If the people in
this house knew the joys of the Chris-
tion religion they would all pass over
into the kingdom of God the next mo-

ment When Daniel Sandeman was dy
ing of cholera , his attendant said ,
"Have you much pain ? " "Oh , " he replied -
plied , "since 1 found the Lord I have
never had any pain except sin. " Then
they said to him , "Would you like to
send a message to your friends ? " "Ye" ,
I would ; tell them that only last night
the love of Jesus came rushing into my
soul like the surges of the sea , and I
had to cry out , 'Stop , Lord , it is
enough ; stop , Lord , enough ! ' " Oh , the
joys of this Christian religion. Just
pass over front those tame joys in
#
which you are indulging , joys of this
world , into the raptures of the gospel.
The world cannot satisfy you ; you have
found that out. Alexander , longing for
other worlds to conquer , and yet
drowned in his own bottle ; Byron
whipped by disquietudes around the
world ; Voltaire cursing 'his own soul
while all the streets of Paris were ap
plauding him ; Henry VIII. consuming
with hatred against poor Thomas a
Becket all illustrations of the fact
that this world cannot make a man
happy. The very man who poisoned
the pommel of the saddle on which
Queen Elizabeth rode shouted in the
street , "God save the Queen ! " One mo
ment the world applauds , and the next
moment the world anathematizes. Oh ,
come over into this greater joy , this
sublime solace , this magnificent beati
tude. The night after the battle of
Shiloh , and there were thousands of
wounded on the field , and the ambu
lances had not come , one Christian sol
dier lying there a-dying under the
starlight , bejan to sing :
"There is a land of pure delight , "
And when he came to the next line
there were scores of voices singing :
"Where saints immortal reign. "
The song was caught up all through
the field among the wounded until it
was said there were at least 10,000
wounded men uniting their * voices as
they came to the verse :
"There everlasting Spring abides
And never-withering flowers ;
'Tis but a narrow stream divides
This heavenly land from ours. "
At the opening of the Exposition irf
New Orleans I saw a Mexican flutist ,
and he played the solo , and then after
ward the eight or ten bands of music ,
accompanied by the great organ , came
in ; but the sound of that one flute as
compared with all the orchestras was
greater than all the combined joy of
the universe when compared with the
resounding heart o : Almighty God. For
ten years a father went three times a
day to the depot. His son went off in
aggravating circumstnees , but the
father said : "He will come
back. " The strain was too much
and his mind parted , and three times a
day the father went. In the early
morning he watched the train , its arri
val , the stepping out of the passengers ,
and then the departure of the train.
At noon he was there again watching
the advance of the train , watching the
departure. At night he was there
again , watching the coming , watching
the going , for ten years. He was sure
his sen would come back. God has
been watching and waiting for some of
you , my brothers , ten years , twenty
years , thirty years , forty years , perhaps -
haps fifty years , waiting , waiting ,
watching , watching , and if now the
prodigal should come home , what a
scene of gladness and festivity , and
how the great Father ' s heart would rejoice -
joice at your coming home. You will
come , seme of you , will you not ? You
will , ycu will.
I notice , also , that when a prodigal
come. home there is the joy of the
ministers of religion. Oh , it is a grand
thing to preach this gospel. I know
there has been a great deal said about
the trials and the hardships of the
Christian ministry. I wish somebody
would write a good , rousing book about
the joys of the Christian ministry.
Since I entered the profession , I have
seen more of the goodness of God than
I will be able to celebrate in all eter-
nity. I know some boast about their
equilibrium , and they do not rise into
enthusiasm , and they do not break
down with emotion ; but I confess to
you plainly that when I see a man
coming to God and giving up his sin
I feel in body , mind and soul a trans
port When I see a man bound hand
and foot in evil habit emancipated , I
rejoice over it as though it were my
own emancipation.
When in one communion service such
throngs of young and old stood up and
in the presence of heaven and earth
and hell attested their allegiance to
Jesus Christ , 1 felt a joy something akin
to that which the apostle describes
when he says : "Whether in the body
I cannot tell ; God knoweth. " Oh , have
not ministers a right to rejoice when a
prodigal comes home ? They blew the
trumpet , and ought they not be glad
of the gathering of the host ? They
pointed to the full supply , and ought
they not to rejoice when thirsty souls
plunge as the hart for the water
brooks ? Thay came forth , saying :
"All things are now ready" ought
they not to rejoice when the prodigal
sits down at the banquet ? Life insurance -
surance men will tell you that ministers -
ters of religion , as a class , live longer
than any other. It is the statistics
1
of all those who calculate upon human
longevity that ministers of religion , -
as a ciass , live longer than any other. \
Why is it ? There is more draft upon ,
the nervous system than in any other ]
profession , and their toil is most ex- '
hausting. I have seen ministers kept '
on miserable stipends by parsimonious
congregations who wondered at the !
dullness of the sermon when the men '
of God were perplexed almost to death
by questions of livelihood and had not
enough nutritious food to keep any fire
in their temperament. No fuel , no fire.
I have sometimes seen the inside of the
life of many of the American clergymen -
men , never accepting their hospitality
because they cannot afford it ; but I ]
have seen them struggle on with salaries - 1
aries of five or six hundred dollars a •
year the average less than that their
Btruggle well depicted by the western
missionary , who says in a letter *
"Thank you for the last remittance ;
until it came we had not any meat In
our house for one year , and all last
winter , although it was a severe win
ter , our children wore their summer
clothes. " And there men of God I find
in different parts of the land struggling
against annoyance and exasperations
innumerable : Some of them week
after week entertaining agents who
have maps or lightning rods to sell ,
and submitting themselves to all styles
cf annoyance , and yet without com
plaint and cheerful of soul. How do
you account for the fact that these life
insurance men tell us that ministers , as
a class , live longer than any other ? It
is because of the joy of their work ; the
joy of the harvest field , the joy of
greeting prodigals home to their Fath
er's house. Oh , we are in sympathy
with all innocent hilarities. We can
enjoy a hearty song and we can be mer
ry with the merriest ; but thosp of us
who have toiled in the service are
ready to testify that all these joys are
tame compared with the satisfaction of
seeing men enter the kingdom of God.
The great eras of every ministry are
the outpourings of the Holy Ghost , and
I thank God I have seen sixteen of
them. Thank God. thank God !
Look , look ! There is Christ. Cuyp
painted him for earthly galleries , and
Correggio and Tintoretto and Benjamin
West and Dore painted him for earthly
galleries , but ill those pictures are
eclipsed by this masterpiece of heaven.
Christ ! Christ ! There is Paul , the hereof
of the Sanhedrim , and of Agrippa's
court room , and of Mar3 Hill , and of
Nero's infamy , shaking his chained fist
in the very face of teeth-chattering
royalty. Here is Joshua , the fighter of
Bethoron and Gideon , the man that
postponed sundown. And here is Vash-
ti , the profligacy of the Persian court
unable to remove her veil of modesty
or rend it , or lift it. And along the
corridors of this picture gallery I find
other great heroes and heroines David
with his harp , and Miriam with the
cymbals , and Zechariah with the scroll ,
and St. John with the seven vials , and
the resurrection angel with the trum
pet. On further in the corridors , see
the faces of our loved ones , the cough
gone ; from the throat , the wanness gone
from the cheek , the weariness gone
from the limbs , the languor gone from
the eye. Let us go up and greet them.
Let us go up and embrace them. Let
us go up and live with them. We will !
we will !
Once more I remarK , that when the
prodigal gets back the Inhabitants of
heaven keep festal. I am very certain
of it. If you have never seen a tele
graph chart you have no idea how many
cities -connected together , and how
many lands. Nearly all the neighbor
hoods of the earth seem reticulated ,
and news flies from city to city , and
from continent to continent. But more
rapidly go the tidings from earth to
heaven , and when a prodigal returns
it is announced before the throne of
God. And If these souls now present
should enter the kingdom there would
:
be some one in the heavenly kingdom
to say , "That's my father , " "That's my
mother , " "That's my son , " "That's the
one I used to pray for , " "That's the
one for whom I wept so many tears , "
and one soul would say , "Hosanna ! "
and another would say , "Hallelujah ! "
Pleased with the news , the saints be
low
In songs their tongues employ ;
Beyond the skiis the tidings go ,
And heaven is filled with joy.
Nor angels can their joy contain ,
But kindle with new fire ;
The , sinner lost is found , they sing ,
And strike the sounding lyre.
From this hilltop I catch a glimpse
of these hilltops where all sorrow and
sighing shall be done away. Oh , that
\ God would ma ' ie that world to us a
reality. Faith in that world helped old
Dr. Tyng when he stood by the casket
of his dead son whose arm had been
\
torn off in the threshing machine ,
death ensuing , and Dr. Tyng , with in
finite composure , preached the funeral
sermon of his own beloved son. Faith
in that world helped Martin Luther
without ; one tear to put away in death
his favorite chiid. Faith in tha :
world helped the dying woman to see
en the sky the letter "W , " and they
asked ; her what she supposed that let
\ ter "W" en the sky meant. "Oh , " she
said ; , "don't yu know ? 'W * stands for
'Welcome. ' " Oh , heaven swing open
thy \ gates. Oh , heaven , roll upon us
some , of the sunshine anthems. Oh ,
heaven \ , flash upon us the vision of thy
luster. \ An old writer tells us of a 3hip
coming ( from India to France. The crew
was made up cf French sailors who had
been ] long from home , and as the ship
came , a' .ong the coast of France , the
men : skipped the deck with glee , and
they \ pointed to the spires of the
churches , where they once worshiped
and to the hills where they had played
] in boyhood. But when the ship came
into j port , and these sailors saw father
and } mother and wife and loved ones on
the , wharf , they sprang ashore and
rushed up the banks into the city , and
the captain had to get another crew to
bring the ship to her moorings. So
heaven , will after a while come so fully
in sight we can see its towers , its man
sions , its hills , and as we go into port
and our loved ones shall call from that
shining shore and speak our names we
will spring to the beach , leaving this
old ship of a world to be managed by
another crew , our rough voyaging oi
the seas ended forever.

meut to a reporter on August Hist , 1SD0 : (
"For about three years I have suffered in-
tcnselv from rheumatism , aud during" that j

Last spring Lev. J. BVilcs advised me to

Wiles' enthusiastic praise of Pink Pills that
1 decided to try a box , and the result is all
that the most exacting could wish , for be
fore 1 had taken two boxes of the pills I was
completely cured , and I feel better now
than 1 have for several yeirs.
