DOWN BY THE SUNLIT SEI A. Oh, it was merry, inery, Down by the sunlit sea! I beard the old shore scoldirg the waves For they can never agree., Said the shore: "You make me weary, Oh waves, with your endless song; You are singing, sighing and laughing; You are at it all day long." Thus did I bear her scold them, And sae might have scolded more. But the little white waves came run ning up And kissed the brown old shore. Then, with a sound like laughter, They tumbled back to the sea; And the shore took tbat for the kiss of peace Ftr never a word said she! Oh, it is merry, merry, To watch them at tbeir play I For the brown old shore and the little white waves Have the same game every day! VICTORY OVER PAIN 3Ew. Dr. Talmase WrItes o0 the Heavenly city. BROOKLYN, Nov, 4 -RCv. Dr. Tal mage who is now nebring the close of his globe crcling tour and will shortly reach Amercan sha.res, has selected as the subject of today's eermon thrcuub the press -Victory Over Pain," the text chosen being Revelation xxi, 4, "Neither sball there te any more pala." The first question that ycu ask wben about to chance your iresidence to any city Is: "Wbat is the health of the place? Is it shaken of terrible disorders? What are the bills of mortalitl? What is the death rate? How high rises the thermometer?" And amil not reason able in askmg, Wirat are the sanitary conditions of the heavenly city into which we all hope to move? My text answers it by saying, "Neither shal there be any more pain." First, I remark, that there will be un pain of disappointment in heaven. If I could put the picture of what you an ticipated of life when you began it beslda the picture of what you have realazed I would fnd a great diffeaence. You have stumbled upon great disappoint ments. Perhaps you expected riches, and you have worked hard enough to gain them. You have planned and worried and persisted until your hands were worn and your brain was racked and your heart fainted, and at the end of this long stife with misfortune you find that it you have not been positively de. feated it has been a drawn battle. It is still tug and tussle, this year losing what you gained last, financial uncer tainties pullmg down faster than you can build. For perhaps 20 or 30 years you have Deen runng your craft straight into the teeth of the wind. Perhaps yom have had domestic disap pointineat. Your children, upon whose education you lavished your hard earued dollars, have not turned out as expect ed. Notwithstanding all your counsels and prayers and painstaking tey will not do right. Many a good father has had a bad boy. Absalom trod er D.zv id's heart. That m'ther never imagined all this as 20 or 30 years ago she sat by that child's cradle. Your ife has been a chapter of disap pointments, but come with me, and I will show you a difierent scene. By God's gracd. entering the other city you will never again have a blasted hope. The most jubbdant of expectations willi Dot reach the realz tion. Coming to the top ef ona hill orjoy, there will be other heights rising upon the vision. This song of transuort will but litt you to higher anthems, the sweetest choral but a prelude to more tremendous har mony, all things better than you had an ticipated-the robe richer, the crown brighter, the temple grander, the throng mightier. Further, I remark, there will be no pain of weariness. It may be many hours since you quit work but many of you are unrested, some from overwork, and some from dullness of trade, the latter more exhausting than the former.1 Your anklies aChe; your spirits flag; you want rest. Are these wheels always to turn, these shuttles to fy, these axes to hew, mess shovels to delve, these pens to fly, these books to be posted, these goods to be sold?* Ah, the great holiday apgioaches! No more curse of taskmnakers; no more stooping until the back aches; no more calculation until the brain is bewildered; DO more pain; Do more carpentry, for the mansions are all built; no more ma sonry for the walls are all reared; no more diamond cutting, for the gems are alset; no more gold beating, for the crowns are all completed; no more agrn culture, for the harvests are spontane ons. Further, there will be no more pain or poverty. It is ahard thing to be really poor, to have your coat wear out and no money to get another, to have your Sour barrel empty and nothing to buy bread with for your children, to live in an unhealthy row and no means to change your habitation, to have your child sick with some myste rious disease and not be able to secure eminent medical ability, to have son or daughter begin the world and you not have anything to help them in starting. with a mind capable of research and high contemplation to be perpetually flxed on questions of mere livelihood. Posts try to throw a romance about the poor man's cot, but there is no ro mance about it. Poverty is hard, cruel, unrelenting. But Lazarus waked up without his rags and his diseases, and so all of Christ's poor wake up at last without any of their disadvantages-no alumshouses, for they are all princes; no] rent to pay, for the residence is gratni tone; no garments to buy for the robes1 are divinely fashioned; no seats in church for poor folks, but equality among temple worshippers; no hovels; DO hard crusts; no insufibient apparel. "Theiy shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more, neither shall the sun light on :ser.n nor any heat." No more pain. Further, there will be no pain of part ing. All these associations must some time break up. We clasp hands and walk together and talk and laugh and weep together, but we must after awhilei separate. Your grave wiil be in one place, mine in another. We look each other foil in the face for the last time. We will be sitting together some even ing or waiking together some day, and nothing will be unusual in our appear ance or our conversation, but God knows that it is the last time, and messengers from eternity on their errand to take us away know it is the last time. and in heaven, where they make ready for our departing spirits, they know it is the last time. -Oh, the long agony of earthly separa tion! It is awfal to stand in your nursery fighting death back from the couch of your child and try to hold fast the little one ad see all the timiethat he is getting weaker and the breath is shorter, and make outcry to God to help us and to the doctors to save him and see it is of no avail, and then to know that his spirit is gone, and that iou have nothing left but the casket that held the jewel, and that in two or three days you must even put that away and walk around about the house and find it desolate, sometimes feeling rebellious, and then to resolve to feel differently, and to resolve on self control, and just as you have come to what you think is perfect self control to suddenly come upon some little coat or picture or shoe hafwonp nt. andnow ali the floods of he !:Tl h's rn oro w ild wri i t.zD ):, ; G d, . w tibrI it 1s to .art, to 1ose the op 0tat never can look merry it our coming, to kies the hand that will iever neain do us a kinde ess!

Oar natures are irflnitely suecepti )le to suffering. The es., the foot, tbe iand, with immense capac*ty of anguish. The little child meets at the entrance of life manifold diseases. You hear the rill cry of infancy as the lancet strikes nto the swollen 2um. You see its head oss in consuming fevers that take more ban half of them into the dust. Old Lge passes, d;za7 and weak and short areathed and dim eighted. On every iortheast wind co)me down plenrisie md pneumonias. War lifts its sword Lad backs away the life of whole genera ions. The hospitals of the earth groaw nto the ear of God their complaint. .siatic choleras and ship fevers and ypoid and L->ndon plagues make the I vorld's knees ancck together. i Pain bas gone through every street J md up every ladder and down every ,aft.

Aye, the world has writhed in 8.000 years of suffering. Why doubt the poe ibilty of a future world of suffering when we see the tortures that have been oicted in this? A deserter from Sevasto pol coming over to the army of the allies pointed back to the fortress and saM, "Th'at place is a perfect hell." Our lexicographers, aware of the im niense necessity of having plenty of wor ds to express the different shades of touble, have strewn over their pages inch words as "annoyance," "distress," grief," "bitterness," "heartache," misery," "t wing," "pang," "torture," 'aficton," sagis, "tribulation," wretchednes," "woe." But I have a rad sound far every hospital, for everyt mckroom, for every lifelong invalid, for, ivery broken heart. "There shall be 1 1 more pain." Thank God! Thank I lod! No malarias lc'at in the air. No 4 yrnised foot treads that street. No< aintl respiration. No hcctic flusb. 4 Ko one can drink of that healthy foun 1 an and keep faint hearted or faint head- I ad. He whose foot touches that pave nent becometh an athlete. The first tiss of that summer air will take the wrinkles from the old muan's cheek'. Amid the multitude of songsters not one liseased throat.
