mmn ?? ???? 'TO! V i I The Pui/o/t !| T(D\ \A ripNDF!?PN^HfiS85W* h v-? t - - ,w Theme: A Nation's Warning. / Brooklyn, N. V.?Preaching- at the Irving Square Presbyterian Church, Hamburg avenue and Weirfield street, on the above theme, the Rev. Ira Wemmell Henderson, pastor, took as his text Daniel 5:5: "In the same hour came forth fingers of a man's hand, and wrote over against the candlestick upon the plaster of the wall of the king's palace; and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote." He said: This is a weird story- The incijdent is gruesome. The circumstances give pause for thought. The picture is terrific. Belshazzar, the wicked king, in the midst of revelry and vice, surrounded by his retinue and the parasites of a degraded court, flauntj v <1\a vfivr r\f tlia ll!?j Ills V llJaia.T i** HIV ***** iwv-v v*. wav* living God, finds that God is not mocked, much less is He dead. The animated hand points the tight end of a long rope. It emphasizes a clear warning of Jehovah. And it terrifies the king. Belshazzar had cause to fear. It is no wonder that his knees knocked and that his limbs shook, that he had a fit, so as to say, of the ague. Well he might. For Nebuchadnezzar the king, his father before him, had had an exhibition of the power and the presence of God within the world. He had harbored wickedness in his heart and within his dominions and God had humbled him. Belshazzar therefore might have learned from ancestral experience what would be likely to be the sure result of his many and perverse sins. Simple reasoning might have led him to refrain to try the patience of Jehovah to his own undoing. But he would not be taught. He would not even be warned. And the same night Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans was slain. This weird tale is as useful as it is gruesome and as illustrative as it is terrific. It is admonitory, it should be exemplary. It certainly affords food for sober and continued thought. It epitomizes a lesson that bo many men and nations in the past have failed or refused to grasp. The lesson that a man cannot fool with laws of morality and righteousness and with the principles enunciated by Almighty God and be safe or live for long. How often it has happened in history that men and nations have waited until the noose has tightened. How many have flaunted their wilfulness in the face of Jehovah with a seeming calm superiority to the inevitable. How many have refused to heed even aner me ua.uu nets, tis it ?uc, mmcu over against the wall of their own lives. Louis presumed to defy God and man and to exalt his whims above the right. Aud his fatuousness prepared the way for freedom's France. George the Third moved to thwart the plans of Providence in the new world. Eut the political idiocy of George the Third simply hastened the ascendancy of George Washington. America tried to demonstrate the holiness of an unholy slavery and to compromise principle. But God wrote large upon the page of our national history His ultimatum concerning the rights of man with the red blood of the flower of our manhood. The lesson of Belshazzar is apropos. It is pertinent. And it is nowhere more needed than within the confines of most Christian and civilized America. To mention no others, it is of practical value in our commercial and governmental and ecclesiastical affairs. For commerce has been made the creature of the whims and fan cies of unscruplous financiers. ine Government has been, and is now being, made the opportunity for thieves and malefactors of every conceivable political stripe. The church has been dormant. In many quarters she has been, so it would seem, dead. We have been remiss in much. We have been fast and loose in more. We have deified wealth and permitted godlessness to strut with little let or hindrance upon the king's highway. God knows we have been warned. Let us trust that we shall heed the hand. Let us not emulate Belshazzar. No man may deny that we have drifted fast toward the rocks of national dishonor and disgrace in our commercial affairs. The financial anu commercial situation is a disgrace to a free people, not to say of a Christian nation. And bad as is the story that comes directly to our ears it is .not half of what may be told and but lan adumbration of the catastrophe that will follow as surely as that Cod lives if we do not mend our ways. The spectacle of a panic in the midst of the most legitimate prosperity that V* xt'nrlrJ Vi o c* ntror bnr?n*r-? to {n I + e? c. 1 f a far greater condemnation of our methods and our career than any sermon. Words cannot picture the sinfulness of the situation so well r.s can the fact with which we are face to face. Any sane man can perceive the outcome. None but a fool or a knave would deny the sin. Shall we shut our eyes to the writing hand? Fast as we have drifted toward commercial-and financial disaster we have none the less swiftly progre-sed in many quarters, and even now are moving, toward political degeneracy. The administration of our cities is a by-word and a joke among the nations of the world. As we contemplate them ourselves we seem almost to take delight to say that they are as badly managed as they are. Certainly many of us openly despair of reformation and pronounce popular self-government upon that point to be and utter and a shameful failure. The efforts of those who sit behind the scenes and null the wires in our national affairs are to accomplish the discrediting and overthrow o? any man or measure that is squared to the unflinching application of the rule of righteousness regardless of the consequences or the cost. We may well thank God that here and there, especially in the South and West, the citizenship of America is bo keen to hear the breaking waves and to steer the ship of our national existence off impending shores. For we must change our course, or we will perish as the grass. Similarly the church has been remiss. The prevalent and profound antagonism toward and distrust of j the church upon the part of too large a proportion of the working men and careful thinkers of this land is a warning that we would do well to heed. We have exchanged leadership for applause and conviction for ease. We have become flabby. Multitudes of men regard us as the protectors and special pleaders, ior consideration, of the privileged classes. We are regarded as too prominently the preservers of the status quo, the brake upon a healthy progress. And it is not strange. For the church has T not, nation wide, locked arms great, moral reform openly a gressively in forty years. W spent our fighting strength heresy trials and game that worth our energy, in New "! would seem, judging by the r that tho sure way to defeat a date is to secure for him th and avowed support of the n of the church.

It is the urg< poverty, the prostration of hi the fervency of penitencc, th< dence of trust. It is not eloi but earnestness; not the defini helplessness, but the feeling not the figures of speech, bu ; punction of soul. It is the save me, I perish," of dr Peter, the cry of faith to the Mercy. Prayer is desire; it a mere conception of the mir an effort of the intellect, not of the memory, but an eleva the soul toward its Maker. i Herald. Keep in Line.

An antique waist bag in rich flowered silk, with a hook and mounting in gold, inlaid with real emeralds, has just been modernized and renovated by its owner, a skilled crochet worker, who took a delight in partly veiling the faded silk with shamrocks and harps worked in silk Irish crochet, to agree with the precious emeralds, to remind one of verdant Erin.

This season will be a strong white season, but there is a large and growing demand for the slip of color, and the soft batiste is preferred to the silk.
