THE GOSPEL OF HEALTHL D. TALIAGE'S SUNDAY SERMON, A Few Timely Words in Regard to Spiritual Health. SE XT: "Till a dart strike throU9h his liter.' -Proverbs, vii., 2. There is a fashion in srnieoics. A com paratirely small part of the ltibie is called or for texts. Most of the pasages of Scripture, when announced at the op' nmg of sermons, immediately divide the ns .lvs it.) old dis cussions that we have heard from bovhood. and the et'ect on us is soporitic. The auditor guesses at the start just what the preacher will say. There are very important ch:pters and verses that have never been preached from. Much of mr lifetime 1 amit devoiting to unlocking thes- gel.I che-is and blasting open these quarries. We talk about the heart, and sing about the heart, but if you refer to the physical organ t hat we call the heart, it has not half so tuch to do with spiritual health or disrase, moral exaltation or spiritual depretsion. as th' organ to the consideration o; which X0l:non calls us in the text. when :!' lcs-rih- s sin 1roxgressing "till a dart strike thr uzh his liver. Soiomon's an:atomtical a:id physiological discoveries wi re so very great that he was nearly 3,000 years aheaC or the scientists of his day. lie. more than 1,o years before Christ, seemed to know about the circulation of the bloo)d, which Harvey discovere.l 1.ll years after Christ. for when Soloion in tcelesiastes, describin; the human body. speaks of the pitcher at the fou-tain, he evi dently means the three canal: leading from the heart that receive tie bood like pitchers. When he speaks in Eccl siastes of thesilver cord of life, he evidently i -ais the spina; marrow, about which in sir day Drs. MIaye and Carpenter, and Dalton, and Flint, and Brown-Sequard have experimented. And Solomon recorded in the Bible thousands of years before scientists discovered it, that in his time the spinal cord relaxed in old age. producing the tremors of hand and head: "Or if the silver cord l, looend." In the text he reveals the fact that he had studied that largest glan..' of the human sys tem, the liver, not by the eectric light of the modern dissecting room, but by the dim light of a comparatively dark age, and yet had seen its important funt-tion in the God-built castle of the human body, its selecting and secreting power, its curious cells, its elon gated, branching tubes. a divine workman ship in central, an:l right, and left lobe, and the hepatic artery through which God con ducts the crimson tiies. )h. this vital organ is like the eye of God in that it n-ver sleeps. Solomon knew of it and had noticed either in vivisection or post mortent -what awful at tacks sin and lissipation make upon it, until with the 'iat of Almighty God it bids the body and soul separatt, and the one it cont rmands to the grave and the other it sends to judgment-a javelin of retribution, not glancing off or making a slight woun.l, but piercing it from side to side "till the dart strike through the liver." Galen and Hippo crates ascribe to the liver the mot of the world's moral depre-ssion, and the word melancholy means black bile. I preach to you this morning ,he gospel of health. In taking diagnosis of the d:seases of the soul you must also take the diagnoses of the diseases of the body. As if to -ecog -nize this, one whole book of the New Testa ment was written by a physician. Luke was a doctor, and he discources mouch of physical effects, and he tells of the good Samaritan's medication of the wounds by pouring in oi: and wine, and recognzes hunger as a hin drance to hearing the Gospel, so that the 5.00 were fed: and records the sr-are diet of the prodigal away from home. anI the extin guished eyesight of th- beggar by the way side, and lets us know of the heniorrhage of the wounds of the dying Christ and the miraculous post-mortem resuscitation. And any estimate of the spiritual condition that does not ineude a'so an estima:o of the ph 'cal condition is incomplete. Frst, let Christian people avoid the mis take that they are all wrong with God be cause they suffer from depression of spirits. Many a consecrated man has found his spir itual sky befoged'. and his hose and heaven blotted out, ana himself plunged chin deep in the Slough of Despond. and hss said: " Iv heart is not right with God,and I think I must have made a mistake, and insteadl of being a child of light I am a child of darkness. No one can feel as gloomy as I feel and be a Christian." And he has gone to his initst'r for consolation, and he has collected Filavei's books, and Cecil's books, and lBaxter's books. and read and read and read, and praye I and prayed and prayed, and wept and wteet an-I wept, and groaned and groaned and groaned. My brother, your trouble is not with the heart; it is a gastrie disorder or a re bellion of the liver. Youi rod a phiys: cian more than you do a clergyman. It is not sin that blots out your hop of hewsent, but bile. It not only vellows your eveball. and furs your tongue, and mak'ies voui' heatd ache, but swoops uplon your soul in dleie'-tions and forebodings. Thie dev il tis after vou.

Another practical use of tmis suoject is for the young. The theory is abroad that they must first sow their wild oats, and afterward Michigan wheat. Let me brtak the delusion. Wild oats are getnerally sown in th~e liver, and they can never be pulled upt. They so procpy that organ that there is ino room m-r the impnantation of a righteous ct-op. You see aged men about us at SO erect, agile, splendid. grand old men. How much wild oats did they sow between 1S years and e0: -None, absoluto none. God does not very often honor with old age those who have in early life sacrificed swine on the altar of the bodily temple. Remember, 0, young man, that while in after life and after years of dissipation you may perhaps have 'our heart changed, religion does not change the liver. Trembling and stag gering along the e streets to-day are men, all bent and decayed and pre maturely old for the reason that they are paying for liens they put upon their physical estate before they were .;0. By early dissip: tion they put on their body a first mortgage, and a second mortgage, and a third mort gage to the devil, and these mortgages are now being foreclosed, and all that remains cf their earthly estate the undertaker will soon put out of sight. Many years ago. in fulfillment of my text, a dart struck through their liver, and it is there yet. God forgives, but outraged physical law never, never, never. That has a Sinai, but no Cal vary. Solomon in my text knew what he wai talking about. He had in early life b-en a profligate, and he rises up on his throne of worldly splendor to shriek out a warning to all the centuries. David, bad in early life, but good in later life, cries out with an agony of earnestness: "Remember not the sins of iy youth." St -phen A. D'tiglas gave the name of squatter sovereignty to those who went out W est and took possession of lands and held them by right of preoccupation. Let a floek of sins settle on your heart before you get to , 'ears of age. and they will in all l1q.hability keep possession of it by an in forimal squatter sovereignty. "1 prom ise to pay at the bank $50) six months from date," says the promissory note. "I nromise to pay my life thirty years from late at the lank of the grave." says every infraction of the laws of your physica! being. What ' Will a mans boly never com pletely recover from an early dissipation in this world; Never. How about the world to come' Perhaps God will fix it up in the resurrection body s) that it will not have to go limping through all eternity, but get the liver thoroughly damaged and it will stay damnaged. 'hysicians call it cancer of the liver, or hardening of the liver, or cirrhosis of the liver, or intlamnation of the liver, or fatty degeneration of the liver, but : olomon puts 11these pangs into one figure and says: Till the dart strikethrough his liver." That young man smoking cgarettes and smoking cigars has no idea thi. he is getting for himself a smoked liver. That young man has no idea that lie has by early dissipation so depleted his energies that he will go into the battle only half armed. Napoleon lost Waterloo days before it w as fought' Had he atta'ked the English arnmy before it vas re enforced, and taken it division by division. he might have won the day, but he waited until he had only 100.000 men against 20 ,000. And here is a young man who, if lie put all his forces against the regiment of youthful temptations in the strength of God he might dr ive them back, but he is allowing "ern to be reinforced by the whole army of r.::d'ife temptations, and when all these combiried forces are massed against him and no Grouchy com.:s to help him, and Bluneher has come to h; lp his foes, what but immortal defeat can await him Some vears ago a scientific lecturer went throu;h the country exhibiting on great canvas different parts of the human bo-ly ""her healthy and different parts when dis ease:1. And what the world wants now is same eloquent scientist to go through the country showing to our young people on blazing canvas the drunkards liver. the idler's liver, the libertine's liver, the gani bier's liver.. Perhaps th.- sl>etacle might stop some young man before he comes to the same catastropdhe, and the dart strike through his on n1 liver. My hearer, this is the first sermon you have heard on the gospel of health, and it may be the last von will ever hear on that subject: and I charge you. in the name of God and Christ, and usefulness and eternal destiny, take bet ter care of your health. When some of you die. if your friends put on your tombstone a truthful epitaph, it will read: "Here lies the victim of late suppers," or it will b-: "Be hold what chicken salad at midnight will do for a man:" or it will be: "'Ten cigars a day closed m' earthly existence:" or i' will b:": "rat down in a cold draught and this is this result:" or it will be: "I died of thin shoes last winter;'? or it will be: "'Wenit out ithout an oveoat andr took this last chill;' or it will be: "Thought 1 coul do at 7o what 1 did at :!0. and I am here;" or it will b': "Here is the conse quence of sittine a half day with wet feet:' or it will b s: 'his is wh-xre I have stacked my harve';t of wild oat';:" or, instead of wordLs the stone cutter will chisel for an epitaph on the tombstone t wo figures, name lv, a dlart anid a liver. There iea kind of sickness that is beautiful when it comes froam ove'nwork for Godi, or ones cou:.try, our one's own family. I have sen w:-unds that weore gLorious.

While Poonthic's parents were looking at her, they wer-e the richest cotuple alive; but when they wer'e oliged to look into their closet or pantry they wvondered how~ any other coupleC could be poorer. They had married solely on love, and their caitadl had inici e::sed lar-gely by natural accumulation. but 'twa' not the sort of thing~ with which one would try to buy breaid aind bu:ter, or pay a milkman's bill.

Their plan had been to liv e on the proceeds of -ruch songs as Fraink might comtpose -ad -ell, for had he not once sold two in a single week. and got fifty dollars for them? But the mnusic publishers had no soul for really exqui-ite songs. Annie stid, so for several years tihe little family sub sted on w.hat Frank could earn by play ing the violin in the orchestra (so-called) of a little theatre ia a little city, where there wecre perforniances two or three times a we ek. There always was enoughi food for P oonthie, and the parents did not starve, but sometimes, when th'ey pretended they were not very hungry they could not help thinking how dread ful stairvaition must be when a mere ap prahto it was so shockingly discom P oonthie had no such troubles, 'how ever heric nearest approach to themwa when, one day, she diverted her atten tion for or~e instant from buttered toast. poached egg and a mug of milk, and lispe:i: "When I getth to be big folkth will I: like water instead of milk, an' not eat any butter on my bweady?' 11er patrents, after choking a little, and wringing eac-h other's hands under thle table, told her they hoped not, b~ut Poonthie was thoughtful for at leat two minutes. Thea she senmed to recall something, and exclaimed: "Tha-v, do you knowv watth comin' pittv soon ?1I d: its Fankg ivin' Day. " es," sighed Frank with a pitying look ait his- wife. "Thanksgiving ce tainly is coming, but what do you know about it, Poonthie "Oh, lotth an' lotth. A little gyle down thtairth told me all 'bout it. Itth the day when nobody don't eat nofiin' but turkey." "Turkev :" echoed Frank in tragieal tones. "Turkey :" echoed Annie plaintively. "Yetlt," said Poonthie, "you'll bwing a big turkey home an' we'll jus eat, an' cat, ain' eat till we can t eat no more." Then Poonthie attacked her egg and toast and milk again. and her parents looked at her until something in their eves made them see double and then kept them from seeing at all. "If only we could have a turkey on Thanksgiving I)ay : said Annie that night, after Poonthie had fallen asleep. "I'm ashamed of myself for the way my mind has run on the subject ever since that bkssed darling mentioned it." "I've a weakness that way myself," Frank admitted, "but et en the smallest turkey on Thanksgiving )ay would mean a row with the landlord on the first of the month." "Don't let us think any more about it," said Annie. --We'll feast royally on an Irish stew that won't cost twenty. five cents; it'll ta-te as ,ood as turkey-if we look at Poonthie while we eat it." But the thought of Turkey would not disappear. for 'oonth ie forbade. When ever her father came into the rom she would look up expectantly and shout: "Did you hwing the turkey?" The excuse that it was not time for the turkey answered fairly for several days, but both parents soon became mor bid on the subject. Frank tried again and again, to find so:nething in the room which could be spared and sold for the price of a small turkey, and Annie spent a wretched day in wonder ing whether she could muster ip courage enough to sneak into the one p:twn-broker's shop in the city, and pledge a tiny gold pin-Poonthie's own-for money enough to buy a turkey for Poontlie's sake. Bnt both were unsucces-ful, and when, the very after noon before Thanksgiving. Poonthie greeted her father with the usual shout. Frank took her in his arm= and said: "It's too bad for anything, little darling. but Papa couldn't find a turkey any where." t Wly," :aid Poonthie, with a wonder ing gaze, '"ith that the way folkth get turkeys ?-uss find 'em ?" ".e," tid Frank, "that's the first thmng to do" ti.\y,'' drawled the child, as her father dropped her so as to put his arm around his wife, who see:ned to need his rtten tion just then. A tall for Poonthie to go play with the "little gyle down thtairth," gave Frank an opportunity to use all sorts of severe language regarding his luck, and his foolishness in dragging a sweet woman dcwa to poverty, and his wicke.lness in bring up an angel child like a beggar's brat. It also gave Annie a chance to tell her hus band what a manly, brave. unc:mplain ing fellow he was, a d ho w Heaven would appreciate him, all in good time, even if music pubis!.ers didn't; in the end they both felt a great deal happier than if they had been rich enough to buy a whole mat ket fuil of turkeys. Indeed they were so absorbed in each other that hours might have passed tin lteded had not the couple been dis turbed by some vigorous kicks at the door. Frank turned the knob and in staggered Poonthie, bearing in her arms a turkey apparently as large na herself. "Youthe a thi:ly old papa,"she panted, after carefully seating the turkey in her little rocking chair as if it were a bab. -You c'ouldn't Iind a turkey an' I could. [ juss athked the little gyle down thwairth w'.here /owr papa found a turkey, an' she thauid diown to the nahlke-t at the cornner: Tho I wev(nt there and thure er~oughi there wath lotth of 4' cm."

"'No," said Poonthie, .scornfully ; ''he only thaid 'watth you goin' to (10 wif that turkey E' an' I thai.l Ithe only goin' to take it to at; papa.

"A nice spectacle for a child of honest parents to I e making,'' said Frank, snatching his hat in one~ hand attd Poon thie wth the otiher.

The pen is mightier than the sword and the blue pencil, as ever', newspapr writer krnows, can knock the conaeit out "DOCTORING OLD TI!E." A Striking Picture-A Itvival of Old Timzo Simplicities. In one of Harper's issues is given a very fine illustration of Roberts's celebrated paint ing, known as "Do:-toring 01( Time." It represents a typical old-timer, with his bel lows, blowing the dust from an ancient clock, with its cords and weights carefully secured. One of those clocks in this generation is ap preciated only as a rare relic. The suggestive name, Doctoring Old Time," brings to our mini another version of the title, used for another purpose-'Uld Time Doctoring." We learn, through a reliable source. that one of the most enterprising proprietary medlicine firms of the country, hats been for years investigating the formulas arud medical preparations usel in the beginning of this century, and even before, with a view of as certainiig why people in our great-grand fathers' time enjoyed a health an-I physical vigor so seldom found in the present genera ton. They now think they have secured the secret or secrets. They lind that the prevail ing opinion that then existel. that "Nature has a remedy for every existing disorder, was true, and acting under this belief, our grandparents used the common herbs anl plants. Continual trespass upon the forest domain has made these herbs less abundant, and has driven them further from civiliza tion, until they have been rlisc-ardetd as reme dial agents bcauso of the dilliculty of ol taining them. H. H. Wllarner, propriptor of Warner's safe cure, an 1 founder of the Warner ob servatory. Rochester, N. Y., has been pr.ss ing investigations in this direction, into the annals of old family historis, until he has secured some very valuable formulas, from which his firm is now preparing medicines, to be sold by all druggists. They will, we learn. be known under the general title of "Warner's Log Cabin Reme dies." Among these medic-ines will be a "Sarsaparilla." for the blood and liver "Log Cabin Hops and Buchu Remedy," for the stomach, etc., "Lon Cabin Cough and Con snmption Remedy,'' a remedy calle:l "Scalp ine," for the hair, "L.og Cabin Extract," for internal and external us -. and an old valu able discovery for Catarrh, called "Log Cabin Rose Cream." Among the list is aNo a "Log Cabin FPsster," and a "Log Cabin Liver Pill." From tne number of remedies, it will be seen that they do not propose to cure all diseases with one preparation. It is believed by many that with these remedies a new era is to draw upon suffering humanity, and that the close of the nineteenth century will sea these roots and herbs, as compounded under the title of Warner's Log Cabin Remedies, as popular as they were at its beginning. Al though they come in the form of plroprietary medicine, yet they will be none the less wel come, for suffering humanity has become tired of moden doctoring and the public has great confidence in any remedies put up by the fin of which H. H. Warner is the head. The people have become suspicious of the effects of doctoring with poisonous drugs. Few realize the injurious effects following the prescriptions of many modern plhysireians. These effects of poisonous drugs, already prominent, will become more pronounced in coining generations. Therefore. we can cor dially wish the eld-fashioned niv remedies the best of success. Overwork is a waste of capital. Years Teach :hore Than Book-.

" - There is great intensity of the physical condition sometimes, td there are facts which we cannot go behind. In illustra tion further of facts which settle the points of a prompt and permanent cure, the fol lowing cases are cited: In 18. 1 Mrs. Mary K. Sliced suffered terribly with chronic neuralgia. She writes from 1110 Maryland Avenue, Washington, D. C. In the first in stance she states: "I suffered terribly with neuralgia in the face: very severe attack extending to back and shoulders; suffered intensely. Tried St. Jacobs Oil; had parts well rubbed at night; in the morning all pain gone, magica'lly." June 10, 1887, she writes from 224 Eleventh Street, S. W., as follows: "Four years ago I sent you a vol untary certificate setting iorth the fact that I hail been a great sufrerer with neuralgia in my face, neck and shoulders. I obtained a bottle of St. Jacobs Oil. and after three ap pliations I was entirely relieved from all ain, and from that time to the present I have never had a return. The effect was miraculous." Again, Feb. 6, 1887, Mr. R. G. Troll, St. Louis, Mo., writes: "In March ISM, I suffered terribly with neuralgia ; had suffered nearly three years. Applied St. Jacobs Oil at 8.1.5 A. M.; at 8.40 took the rag off; at 9 A. M. went to work. In less than live minutes after that the pain was gone. The one application cured me. Have not had return ot it since." Mr. E. W. S angler, York, Pa., June 17, 1887, writes: "Y ears ago had neuralgia; am not subject to it now. The cure by the use of St. Jacobs Oil was permanent. There has been no re currence of the painful affliction." Chas. W. Law, Jr., Pottstown, Pa., April 19, 1887, writes: "Was troubled for vears with neu raigia in neck and head. Tried St. Jacobs Oil; had tried different kinds of remedies without effect. One bottle of the former did the business. No return of pain and aches." In almost every instance the reports are the same. P N U747 HAT AILS YOU? Do you feel dull, languid, low-spirited, life less, and indescribably miserable, both physi cally and mentally; experience a sense of fullness or bloating after eating, or of "gone ness," or emptiness of stomach in the morn ing, tongue coated, bitter or bad taste in mouth, irregular appetite, dizziness, frequent headaches, blurred eyesight, "floating specks" before the eyes, nervous prostration or ex haustion, irritability of temper. hot flushes, alternating with chilly sensations, sharp, biting, transient pains here and there, cold feet, drowsiness after meals, wakefulness, or disturbed and unrefreshing sleep. constant, indescribable feeling of dread, or of impend s ing calamity? If you have all, or any considerable number of these symptoms, you are suffering from that most common of American maladies lilious Dyspepsia, or Torpid Liver, associated with Dyspepsia, or Indigestion.

From its mar velous power over this terribly fatal disease, when lirst offering this now world-famed rem cdv to the public, 1r. Pierce thought seriously of' calling It his " CoYSUCiPTON CURE," but abandone that name as too restrictive for a medicine which, from its wonderful coin ~inationi of tonic, or strengthening, alterative, or bood-clcansing, aant-bilious, pectoral, and nutritive prperties, is unequaled, not ol as a remed for Consumption, but for ni Chronic isecases of the Liver, Blood, and Lungs.
