J
Washington, Doc. J j.?Taking the
exciting story of Samson's fall as a suggestion.
Dr. Take.age in this discourse
shows how giants in bonv and mind or |
soul ought to bo const orated to good
and great purposes. His te\r is Judges
xiv, 1. "And rsmison went down to'finiuath."
There are two sides to the character
of Samson. The one phase of His life, if
followed iuto the particulars, would administer
to the grotesque and mirthful,
but there is u phase of his character
fraught with lessens of solemn and eternal
import. To these graver lcss"us we
devote or.r sermon. This giant no doubt u
in early life gave t vi deuces of what he
was to be. Jr is almost always so. There
were two Napoleons?the h?.v Napoleon
and .the man Nap<riren?but both
alike; two Howards?the bey Howard
and the man Howard?but both alike:
two damsons?the bo.- Samson and tinman
Samson?but 1 <jih alike. I'll i>giaut
was no doubt the hero of the playground,
and nothing could stattd before
his exhibitions of youthful prowess. At
JS years of age ho was betrothed to the
daughter of a Philistine, (bringdown
toward Timnath, a lion came upon him.
and, although this young giant wa*weaponhs'R.
he seized the monster by
the long mane and shook him as a nungiy
hound shakes a March hare and
juado his bones crack and left hint by
the wayside l>b ?djng under tlse smiting
of his list and the grinding heft of his
heel.
Tin-re he stands, looming up above
other men, a mountain of tlcsb. his arms
bunched with muscle that can lift the
gate of a city, taking an attitude defiant
of everything. I lis hair had never been '
cut, and ic rolled down in seven great
plaits over his shoulders, adding to his
bulk ficrcem ss and terror The Philistines
want to compter him. and therefore
they must find out win. re the s? er?lt
of his strength lit s.
The Treacherous Delilah.
There is ;i ciis-olute woman living in
the valley cf Horck <st" the mum- of J)elilah.
They appoint }i? r the agent in the
case. The Philistines are secret ?-il in the
same building. and then Delilah goes to
work ami coax* > t-amson t<> tell what is
the secret cf his strength. "Well," he
says, "if you should take sev* n green
withes, such as they fasten wild la-asts
with, ami put them areuml me I should
be perfectly powerless." So she binds
him with the seven gm n withes. Tie n
she claps her hands ami says, "They
come?the Philistines!" And he walks
out as though they w* re n?> impedum nr. j
the coaxes him again ami s;?\s. "New |
tell me the secret cf 1 hi.* ;;r? at sir* ngih." !
Ami ho replies, "It' yen should take!
some repes that have m-v* r 1-mh used i
ami tie mo v* iili them. 1 should he just- [
like other men." Sim tit s him wit It the
repes, claps lur bauds ami shouts,
"They come ? the Philistines!" lie
walks out :;s easily as he did 1>< fore? ;
net a single obstruct i* n. t-he coaxes
hint again, ami l:e says, "New. if you
should taktf these seven h ng plaits of
hair and by this house )e?.?m w?a\e them
into a web, I could net get away. " >'o
the house loom is rolled up. ami the j
shuttle flies 1 ackward and forward. ami }
the long plaits cf hair are woven into a !
web. Tin n she claps her hands and says. '
"They come ? the Philistims!" lie |
walks out. as easily as he did before, (
dragging a part *-f the loom with him.
But after awhile site j < rstaub <1 him J
to tell the truth, lie says, "if voti j
should take a razor or shears ami cut off j
this long liair, 1 should i ? pew*: less ami '
in the hands of my eti-mies." Samson j
sleeps, and that &he may not wake him j
up during the process of shearing help ;
is called in. V* n know that the barbel's |
of the cast have such a skillful way of
manipulating the head to this very day i
that instead of waking up a sleeping j
man they will put a man wide awake j
sound asleep. 1 hear the t hah > < f the !
shears grinding against each other. ihI j
I see the long locks fallmg "IT. The ;
shears or razor accoinidishes what given I
withes and itew n;p< s and '!???!??- lo?mi i
could ii?it do. Suddenly >hc claps licr ;
hands ami says, "The Philistines he j
upon thee, Samson!"' He rou>es up with :

TIjcv were coming it) over < no r>f
t'i" suburban eltetiic 1 ii;es wlieii she
turned suddenly tow.ud hi in wiih
hashing eye.-:
"Jim Flumley, where -.lid you get
that necktie
"15 >u-lit it "
"Xj, you didn't "bought it." I < it:
tell a stoic necktie as far as I can see
it. That's Laud stitcln d, and that '
Cupid on one end and them forget- j
me uots 011 the other end are woiked
in with silk. Nice things to be putting
on a young man's necktie, and
you never got it over any counter,
either."
'Didn't say I bought it over a
counter. One of them fakirs sold to
me at the cir?."
Kere Jim woi ked ni> an artificial
cough and looked out across a waver
iug cornfield.
"Abo, Jim FlumleC Went to the
civus, did you.' And you toll no
how mad you was be<auseyou had o
work and couldn't take me and rue be
lieviu' you woiked all tiietiimv X >w,
sir, who went wi'h you to that. shn;\
Jim s<piirrued, looked sneaking and
tried to explain. 'Til just till you
how it was. Xid'. Me and Jennie
eat a philopena and she caught mo
and asked me to take her to the eir
cus. How could a filler get out of
it.'
' Well, she has check, I iau-t say.
Why here's Jen now," and the ear
stopped to take on a buxom gir! who
greeted the ether two cheerily.
"Hello, Jim," she sni 1 as soon as i:i
her jcat: "I see you're wearing i?."
Jim tried to look unconscious and
cover the necktie, but X. 11 was aleit
and said "He told me he bought it."
' I like that, now,' declared Jennie
sharply. "We ate a philopena, he
caught, me. I made him the tie and
then he coaxed me to go the circus."
Jim. red and perspiring, saw that
he was being surrounded by two
angry women, and hastily beat a
retreat to ti e back seat. After a few
vigorous puff 11ccessaiy to light his
pipe, he pulled his bat over his eyes,
humped up despondently in the
corner and was heard to mutter
uuctuoush: "Darn a woman, any

Nervous
People often wonder why their nerves are
so weak: why they get tired so easily;
why they start at every slight 1 ut
sudden sound; why they do not sleep |
naturally; why they have frequent
headaches, indigestion and nervous
Dyspepsia
The explanation is simple. It is found in
that impure blood which is continually
feeding the nerves upon refuse
instead of the elements of strength and
vigor. In such condition opiate and
nerve compounds simply deaden and
do not cure. Hood's Sarsaparilla feeds
the nerves pure, rich, red blood: gives
natural sleep, perfect digestion, is the
true remedy for all nervous troubles.
