"Sleeplessness,'* Witli an Appropriate Text of Comprehensive Meaning. Brooklyn, X. V.?At the Second Presbyterian Church Sunday morning the pasr tor, the Rev. T. A. Nelson, D. D., preached $\on the subject. "Sleeplessness." He took ^ , for his text, Daniel ii, part of first verse. W*- ''His spirit was troubled and sleep went r from hira," and saidf That line of the poet Young. "Sleep, naff ^ ture's sweet restorer," like every other true I # poet's saving, was inspired. "Blessings I v kght on him who first invented sleep," p $ says Sancho Panra, in "Don Quixote," and % Coleridge exclaims, in the "Ancient Mari* ner," "0, sleep, it is a gentle thing!" Ten?# nyson speaks of "the mystery of golden deep." and what a mystery indeed it is. It is the most interesting and the most perplexing of all physical and metaphysical mysteries. The mother bends lovingly over her infant in the cradle and wonders what it means?this harmless, painless, * lapsing of all life into unbroken tranquillity. Those little hands, now so quiet, but so busy most of the time, bow beautiful nd still they are now. Those limbs composed in attitudes of such unconscious [ grace, lying on the pillow: how hard it generally is to keep them m order during wakeful hours. And how unspeakably solemn .it is to think how far the child is now i beyond our reach. Who is it, when the face of the mother fades from the vision, that takes its scul in charge? But when a man sleeps the spectacle is more suggestive. Think of Caesar on his couch, his vigilant eyes closed, his voice silent.,his brain unworking and still. Think of Alexander in the night, looking as he finally looked in the coffin, dead. Imagine v how David felt when he saw. Saul entering J thecave.- Think of Cicero fast asleep. Think of the sleeping Christ lying asleep in the midst of the tempest, as it He were resting in the heart of Cod. When Christ turns away from us vrith closed eyes there is alwavs afforded opportunity for the storm. ?? . . I "I- TT ^ < we are oniy at peace wnne ne is w&Keiuujr I- * -with us. Wbile He sleeps not only is the light withdrawn, but the darkness is felt to the utmost: life's ship is tossed with the etorm and we are threatened with mortal danger. A sleeper Christ will do me no good. A painted Chris: will not be of the vaguest service in my life. A wooden crucifix or ivory cross will not help me. It most be a wakeful Christ with every energy astir; power in -every 'look and movement; an actual, positive, real and personal Christ. We are mocked by His figure; we are saved by His personality. It is Christ, not in the temporary paralysis of unconscious sleep, but Christ alert in watchful omnipotence that I need. Unless ; -W we nightly sink into sleep we are not pre* pared to live, and anything over which we nave control which prevents out sleeping in proportion to our need should be esteemed guilt before God. Since the strength of- our life belongs to Kim we are not at liberty to waste it. Nevertheless, in our day we live in such fashion that, like the eastern monarch, our spirits are troubled and our sleep departs. This has come about sometimes from the baste to get rich. People rise early and sit .up late in their eager pursuit of wealth, M when jading day is done at last V& and they lay their neads upon their pillows, sleep may fly from them and they may seek it in vain. Now this is not a light matter. There are few things more dispiriting and truly exhausting than the loss of natural sleep; to count hour after hour in feverish Wakefulness, seeking for^ getfulness which will not come. 7 Now what is the root of all this disA rr., * -It 1..A1) _ tressr me pnysician win uououuss uiagnose it as owing to unhealthy excitement of brain and undue sensitiveness of the nervous system. But in its last analysis you will find as a general rule the great x cause of this weary wakefulness, anxiety apcbmisery is simply want of faith in God. $ It is because we are not able, as we ought to trust ourselves and all that concerns us to a sure providence, and many of you know^tba? it is mental anxiety that breaks your rest. It is because you are trying to bear the burden and build the house yourk ^ selves, to keep the city yourselves, that you have the anxious hours. It is because^ yx>u will plan too far ahead instead of letKing each d^v bear its own burden; because you will ask what is to become of you and your children if such and such an event takes place; because you will take ? fee future into your own hands .instead leaving it to Jesus. But why should we not have faith in God? If we had, many of us, would not we sleep? If, once for all, you have intrusted your soul to His keeping you are sure that all things will go well; that noth^ ing can go amiss; that God will keep- you, * ansrels will guide your footsteps and the Holy Spirit will dwell within you from hour to hour. You will then lay your head dawn upon your pillow and rise again, with the morning light, refreshed. After trying to explain away our weary / hours of sleeplessness on the basis of phvi sical infirmity, we have to confess that tli'e ~ ' real source is found in the things that prey on our minds by day and break our rest at night, and mixed with those anxious thoughts there are the thoughts that null intrude themselves of a more serious character. In the still, wakeful hours, even the most heedless one is forced occasionally to think of Him before whom we must turely appear and give account of ourselves. It is in possible, then, quite to suppress a question as to where the soul will ^ be when the body shall be down in its lit* tie bed, when all earthly things have faded from us. But if you can truly trust that it is well with you, that amid your deep unworthiness you are simply believing on your Saviour and are striving to grow like. Him; that ycur task is appointed you of . God, however humble your sphere, it is large enough to achieve -character; if you ? can always feel that Christ is near and ready to help: that you and those near to you are provided for by Him and that you shall never want; if you have once for all learned whether awake or asleep that you ^are the Lord's and that you shall live toTTV .1 > joiner wun mm, men sureiy you may siiik into untroubled rest and sleep a refreshing and peaceful sleep. But let me coir.e closer still to the experience of some perhaps among professing Christians. You know that healthful sleep is our most peaceful state. You see human nature in that state in which it is most thoroughly free from all annoyance and > trouble, and that is a symbol of the province. "Thou wilt keep him in perfect i peace whose mind ^ is stayed on Thee." That is a wonderful promise, bat there is no blinking the fact that comparatively few even among those who claim to be true followers, ever experience it in its ful^ ness. As a rule it is far from being perfect. One of the ancient schoolman wrote in summing up the chief characteristics of life: "I entered this world in loneliness; I have lived in anxiety; I shall leave it in fear." That about expresses the situation ci many of you. Look at the faces on the street. Almost every one is careworn and * anxious. There is no doubc that care sits heavily 0:1 mankind. What is wrong? Simply this: That while (.lod has promised peace and is ready to give it it mast be received by faith. It goes without saying that the amount o? peace and quiet we 3 shall experience will be in proportion to our trust in God. If we were realiy able to trust God with everything instead of doing, as most Christians do. never trusting God and more than they can help and never feeling quite sure as to what He ? may do; if we would cast our cores upon Him instead of bearing them ourselves > 4wbat unspeakable peace r*i ihould enjoy. I ~ y? r.-<But we have not quite got at the real root of the difKcultv yet. Doubtless some of you are thinking that if some particular thing which vexes you were out of the way you would be all right and your peace would flow as a river. No, that is not the j trouble. It is not some petty vexation 1 that constitutes the bitterness in your cup. j If you probe your hearts deeper you will i discover that the real reason is that you ' are not right with God. You have not truly and heartily believed in" Jesus. You ! have thought a good deal about religion, J but you have never clearly taken the peaceful step, and until you do you will never | experience a true and abiding peace. Un- j tjl you do this fully in obedience and deyo- ? tion to Jesus Christ: not until you are able j t.o say. very humbly, yet with sincerity: "I know whom I have believed." Not til! then can you be at peace. I am not called upon to explain the mystery of Christ by which we are able to arrive at this blessed conviction of faith. It would be a difficult thine to follow bv a logical process. There are many things in the working out of your deepest conscience which are beyond our logic. Nevertheless, i I say there is no escape into the realm of j rest save by faith in the atoning grace of Jesus Christ. The thing that is at the hot- j torn of the fear is the latent conviction that i you are not right with God. It is that j which kept you vaguelv unsatisfied. It is eating the heart out of your eujovment of j life. Get that right- oDce and you will re- j ceive the "peace of God which passeth un- ; derstanding." Perhaps I may not have j been sufficiently personal, direct and pun- ! gent, end. if so, I pray God's forgiveness ; and yours. It will not heal a deeply poisoned wound to skin it over. I pray } you. probe your hearts to the uttermost. I If you feel you have been wrong until now j begin to be right from this hour. Get the I central stay made firm and strong. Get fast j hold of God. The great step is to be really persuaded that God is your Tather To ! be persuaded that He loved you. unworthy j as you are: that He reckons you among the number of those to whom He gives j eternal life. The unrest comes from the | fear that you have not got on the solid J ground: that you are still worse, risking ; the losing of your soul. At any moment j the Master may rise and close the door. Your soul may suddenly look back unon the probation period forever and look forward toward heaven for everlasting. O. ' trv. I beseech vou. for the hope set forth j 1T1 ft, a f*Acr>o] T-Tnv^ it nnt with God. once I lift Vftiv ?V.?'/W?? - ? - -7 # . for all. Get on terras of peace with Him I before the day-.may close. Cast yourself i in the everlasting arras. I have spoken of two things. First, the j consuming care; second, the latent convic- i tion. There is one other experience that j may break our sleep. I pray God that nonp i of you may have it. It is the experience j of one who has committed spiritual suicide, i In one of Victor Hugo's books there is a : character who. after a long series of exper- j icnces. at last arrived at a great crisis; he wavers, hesitates, and then commits a co- j lossal sin. Conscience is insulted beyond j forgiveness. Then suddenly he hears, as it ; were, an internal burst of laughter?laugh- ; ter of the soul?and the soul rarely hears j this innermost laughter more than once j without hearing it forever. This character ; afterward falls asleep .and dreams. He en- ; ters the town; he comes upon many men standing in various postures, silent and im- j movable, as if dead. In unspeakable terror j he tries to flee out of the lifeless city, 1 when, looking back, he is appalled to see j the inhabitants coming after him. Thev i overtake him and hold him and cry: "Do I you know that yon have been dead for a : long while?" Now and then, in polite so- ; cietv, in select communities, even in this j fellowship, unknown to us. but not un- i known to God, one comes upon one of these dead men. who have heard the internal hurst of laughter, who mocks and defies God and insults divine mercy. There is such a thing as spiritual suicide. Men sometimes by their action or non-action take the life of the soul; thev arc dead to repentance and to hope, and at last they j are dead to God. Thus men drive sleep j forever from their eyelids, like Macbeth. I When once the conviction seizes upon the | soul then farewell to slumber and peace. j God forgive trie if I have spoken too ! plainly, if I have misrepresented the spirit i of truth, but if I have been true to the wnrd of God then let him that hath ears i hear what the spirit says: "To-day. if yon ! will hear His voice, harden not your ! hearts/' Lay hold upon eternal life. Then ! you may lay down in sleep; since when von } awake you shall still be with Him; and ' whether you wake or not, ycu will be the > Lord's and His forever. i God's Overture to Us. Jehovah is the unchanging God. To-day He answer* our longing desire*, saying. : "There is a place beside Me." He would not keep us at a distance, but always woos { us to nearrfess. That place is the place of j understanding. You must see the picture j at its right angle if you would know its j meaning. So it is in life. History and or- j perienee have their dark problems. The stained glass window is a mystery when | seen from within by artificial light. But ! when the sunlight streams through and transfigures it, we read its meaning, So God would let His light fall upon our'past experiences, and reveal His purposes working through their ever-changing vicissitudes. It is also the place of llfs presence. Jacob is much slower to leave Bethel than ! he was to run into it. The thought of | Esau filled him with fear. But he saw f "the place beside God," and said, "The Lord is in this place." The experiences of life may not alter, but they are vastlV different when^we are conscious of God's presence amid them. It is? the place of j transfiguration. The unbroken calm of j God's peace, and 'the assurance of eternal security and success take possession of the . soul and the outer life responds to this iD- I ner possession. This reserved place and waiting blessing is God's overture to us at the threshold of another year. May His Spirit help us to stand beside llim and accept this unspeakable gift. Keep Moral Ideas Clear. j We need, above ail thiDgs, to keep our mora! ideal clear and high. "Woe unio him that puts light for darkness and darkness for light, sweet for bitter." etc. That is, woe unto him that confounds moral distinctions. Not our patriotism or our partisanship must biind us to truth. Neither for ourselves nor our country nor our party may we condone sin or falsehood or meanness. If a prophetess, a chosen messenger of God, could go wrong, how easily may we.

Zoloshetz, of Brooklyn, lived 24 hours with the heart and other organs of the thorax entirely exposed, there being no chest wall formed. John M. Murphy, of Omaha, Neb., was found to have a sliding heart that shifted from si-de to side. John Morris, of No. 215 Park avenue, Hoboken, lived six years with his heart exposed through a hole in his side. William Wittma'n of New York had a heart that grew so large that it finally failed to perform its functions. William King of New Bedford, Mass., was found to have two hearts, two sets of ribs and a double breast V?nr?o rvno hoar* W9C /in thp left side and the other on the right side. Martin Welge of Brooklyn was hit by a trolley car and had his heart displaced. It was suspended by a small strip of tissue and vibrated like a pendulum. W. R.
