A SCHOLARLY SUNDAY SERMON B>
'OR. CHARLES EDWARD LOCKE.
w 1so-l>jec(? Tlte Sin-of IrreTere&c*. ,
Brooklyn, K. Y.?Dr. Charles Edwa
Locke, in tlie Hanson Place M. Bi Church
Sunday, preached on ^'Popular
Desecration of Sacred Vessels; or, The
.Sin of Irreverence." The text was
from II Samuel *4:6-7.: "Czzah put
forth his hand to the ark of -God and
took hold of It; and God smote him
there for his error*" Dr. Locke said in
/ the course of his sermon:
There is danger that out .greatest
national sin shall be the sin of irreverence.
The ancient story of Uzzah's
act of desecration in placing his hand
upon the holy ark of God is full of
serious and important lessons which
appiy with solemn significance to our
.age. and our country* .and our individual
citizenship.
God hud given commendment to
Moses to construct a -sacred chest to
;be overla-id within aiad without with
pure gold. It was te be surmounted
, with two cherubim of beaten gold.
This casket was to be a receptacle for
the Tables <of .Stone which Moses fead
received on the top of Mount Sinai, and
t Is beautiful :ark was to he an altar <of:
prayer which was .to he kept in the
midst of the people, far <5od had said.
"There wiE 1 meet with, thee." God
explicitly commanded that no hand
-should touch the ark save the priests*
mid rings and poles were provided -by
, which this sacred vessel was to he
carried. a i
The Philistines came up against!
Israel and captured the ark and held it i
jbl captive for sixty .years, when David;
conquered Pliilistia and builded a suit-!
able place for the .aTk, and, with 30.000j
warriors, went down to the borders of;
the enemy's country and secured possession
of the precious treasure. In
the excitement and joyousness of this :
*. Jong looked for victory, Uzzah's mortal
sin of irreverence was committed, |
which cost him his life.
Id the days of prosperity, Irreverence ]
arrows cost insidiously. When men
feel secure in their own successes they
are prone to forget the commands of
' Ood. We do not depend so helplessly
on our Heavenly Father when our
achievements have given us great confidence
in ourselves. National and individual
prosperity are at once our
greatest danger and greatest security.
In the frenzy of victory, as did Uzzah,
so do we often commit acts of irrever
?? - enee. , j
Sometimes it is fashionable to be ir- ;
+ -reverent. The Philistines, in transporting
the ark. had placed it upon an
ox eart and when the Israelites captured
the ark they followed the error j
-of the Philistines and were returning
with the ark drawn by oxen, instead 1
of carried by the staves and rings, as
God had peremptorily commanded. ;
One act of irreverence leads to another.
And when the ark shook as
the cart went over Xaclion's threshing
floor, Uzzah heedlessly committed his (
serious offense. When the church allows
the world to set its fashions, sac- 1
rileges, disastrous and deplorable, *
speedily follow.
Two other fruitful causes of irrever- *
-ence are forgetfulness and familiarity.
The ark had been in Uzzah's hoyse
since'his boyhood and he dared to take !
privileges with the sacred furniture.
Familiarity sometimes breeds con- 1
tempt. It is not discoverable that 1
Uzzah was either malicious or willful, 1
but be was heedless, and even so ap- 5
o hnrmlace cin nc? Viooilloccriacc 1
brought upon him the awful penalty
tor his disobedience. The influence of
sacred things depends upon their saeredness
being preserved. God could
not control Israel without their respect
and obedience, hence the suffering of
TJzzah. No sin is more treacherous
than irreverence. It decoys its victims.
It is like dry rot in the ship's timbers.
Irreverence slyly gains admittance
where grosser evils would be easily repulsed.
Satan is constantly busy trying
to transform the sons of Levi, who
serve at holy altars, into the sons of*
Eli. Beware of the deceptive tenden>
cies of familiarity; when delicate respect
for holy things is lost then defilement
and sacrilege easily enter.
.When reverence departs character cannot
be retained, for character depends
upon faith and in obedience to sacred
things. ?
At Belshazzar's feast, in the supposed
impregnable city of Babylon, it
was the towering crime of irreverence
in defiling the sacred vessels of the
temple worship at Jerusalem that
/ ' brought disaster and death to the dissolute
young monarch. What are some
of the holy things to-day which must
be honored and preserved?
The church is a sacred vessel. Dedicated
to the service of God, it should
not be diverted into secular uses. Jesus
drove the merchants out of the courts
of . the temple, and, as yet, there has
been no permission granted for their
/ return. The sons of Aaron were devoured
by the strange fire which they L
undertook to offer at the altars of the *
Lord. And similar results occur to- e
day in the consuming of holy instincts e
and respectful inclinations, when the r
church of God is made a place of E
amusement and merchandizing. In *3
chapels and parish houses many things *
are proper which in the sanctuary lead t
unmistakably to irreverence. *
The Bible is a most sacred vessel. ^
There is not much danger of bibliola- 13
try, but we need to be much on our c
guard lest^the very availability of our *
J Greek Book shall cause it to be less f
appreciated. Things are often valued s
by use in proportion to the sacrifice
which has been suffered for them. F
A genetleman placed a copy of the p
Gospel of St. John on my desk the 0
other day, and said it cost only two I
cents. It was in excellent type and t
neatly bound. During the days ot *
the persecution of Diocletian, many a

and the sacred utensils of worship, 8
* 4 and in consequence lost their faith. *
When the Bible goes out of our lives, *
our Christian character loses its chief
support. A man once, in the presence
of his family, picked up a Bible,
. turned its pages carelessly for a few
moments, and petulantly threw it
* down upon the table, saying. "Pshaw!
give me Shakespeare!" Perhaps he
never knew that the Bible was the
acknowleged inspiration of the marvelous
lines of Avon's greatest bard;
It is certain no man ever prefers
*
: ny other book who lias discovered
tin- Vxtr:iordinary beauty and power
of tne Bible.
We must valiantly defend the Bible
against irreverence. It is the bulwark
of our civilization?the foundation
c.f liberty, the cornerstone of
truth. 3 submit whether we do not
commit a serious offense against the
sacrediross of the Rook when we indulge
in constant jokes and puns based
upon the Scriptures. It cannot be
anything less than sinful sacrilege to
weave the holy personages and incidents
of Bible history iuto ridiculous
story. The Bible (fells with most
serious questions which involve the
life and death and weal and woe of

sacred Tights when we mate it the
basis of our fun and laughter? This
is a popular desecration, .which, like
Uzzaii's -sin. lias been committed so
long that it has not occurred to many
people that they are unintentionally
undermining the very book which
tliey desire most to defend.
The Sabbath is a sacred vesseL A
divinely instituted day, for rest and
worship and home. We cannot spare
the Sabbath, but we cannot keep it
if it is steadily allowed to become more
and more a social and a business day.
All vices and enemies of our nation
thrive best wheTe the first day of
the week is decreasingly reverenced.
Dinner parties and hilarious outings
arranged for the Sabbath are direct
attacks upon the security of our republic.
The perpetuity of * nation
depends upon the reverence -of the
people. When the temples are empty,
the walls of the citadel crumble.
When the altars of worship are neglected,
virtue and purity are dethroned,
a nation's protectors lose their
courage and spirit of sacrifice and
there is speedily decline and fall. <3od
has put Himself on record as ready
to cause those nations to "ride upon
the high places of the earth" which
keep His Sabbaths. History fulfils
5n .every century the curses of the
Almighty which have rested upon
those people who have destroyed Hi?
holy day. Why do we argue the
question when he who runs may read?
The human body is a sacred vessel.
What a marvelous gift Is the voice.,
with its capabilities of music and
speech. Alas, that ever its powers are i
profaned! Consider, too. the tastes i
and appetites and muscular possibili- j
ties and vital forces. What exquisite
joys God has invested in the human
body! But, desecrated and disre-.
garded, how this body may become a
bundle of clashing nerves, a prisonpen
full of cruel and warring enemies.
God's great apostle wrote, "If any;
man defile the temple of God," as the
body is called, "him shall God destroy:
for the temple of God is holy,
which temple ye are."
The human mind?soul?is a sacred
vessel. A man is not with "all diii-.
gence, for out of it are the issues of:
life." Man is the upward looking
animal. Kis mind has been created
with powers of concentration and'
analysis, that he ifciglit find out God.
When man uses his faculties against
bis Creator, he has desecrated a sacred
vessel. Man's logical faculty and powers
of invention are often diverted to;
the injury instead of the elevation of
men. A prostituted printing press is
Soing much in "vampire literature" to
violate the human mind. A bad book
or an immodest picture is a poisoned
arrow driven into the mind, from
which an absolute recovery is not possible.
Each must revere his own
mind, and shield himself from the
ten thousand inimical influences that
ire intended to thrive on the spoliation
of pure natures. How empty
would be the playhouses and how
bankrupt many of the publishers if
the American people would suddenly
refuse to be any longer the receptacles
for the filth and corruption of
many of the popular books and most*
3f the popular dramas!
.Tosephus says that in the closing
scenes of Jerusalem, such were the ir*everent
and sacrilegeous practices of
the people, that if the Romans hadj
not destroyed the city, some dreadful
judgment like that which befell Sodom
tvould have come upon that city. Thus.'
ndeed. have nations and cities and
ndividuals disappeared under the disntegrating
processes of irreverence.
As the bold and wicked Belshazzar
ivas, in revelry and drunkenness, do*
iling the sacred vessels of the Lord,
i white hand came out of the black
sleeve of the night, and wrote, in
etters of fire. "Thou art weighed in
he balances and art found wanting!";
ind that night the irreverent young
iing was found dead in his palace,
rhe inexorable penalty of irreverence
s death!
But they who bear reverently the
Lrk of God, who obediently follow the
."ommands of God, who daily honor
n thought and deed the Son of God,
vho hold in highest esteem the privleges
of the sons of God. shall enjoy
jeace and joy forever more, for the
eward of reverence is life?here and
lereafter!
Drawn Toward the Unseen Country*
We have secured a property right in
he unseen country because dear ones
lave migrated thither, and it now exTts
a more immediate and vital hiflunce
upon us. An old lady who had
nade full acquaintance with bereavenent
was asked if she ever received
atimation of the presence of those who
tad Darted from her, and she replied
hat she sometimes felt "a drawing."
)aniel Webster, in lines of tribute to
tis angel child, touchiugly says that
te had expected to become the teacher
if the boy, but that now, instead, the
oy has become the ancestor, the
ather and the guide; and the great
tatesman humbly beseeches the saint-':
:d one to lead him on in the earthly
>ath. Surely, all who have experinced
a genuine sorrow by the entrance
f death into the cherished circle, says
lev. H. P. De^cy, are constrained, if
hey have held to the Christian faith,
o feel that Heaven has oecome nearer
md dearer, that life has become more
acred and duty mcrre commanding,
md that the gracious ministry of the
oved ones has been continued, though
he veil has hidden them from sight.
The Prayer Which Araili,
Six characteristics of the prayer
rhich avails may be named as follows:
1. It presents a need.
2. It is importunate.
3. It is according to the will of God.
4. It is faith.
5. It is in Christ's name.
. It is for the glory of Go4. ^

Springtime? after the weather ha* ;
tecome well settled?is painting time. ;
There is 110 dust flying, no insects are ;
in the air at that time ready to commit
suicide hy suffocation in the coat of
fresh paint. The atmospheric condition*
are also favorable at that season
for proper drying and increased life of j
the painr. j
It should be a habit with every prop- J
eriy owner every spring to look over j
his buildings, etc.. and see if they need |
repainting, not merely to see if they |
"will go another year." but whether the j
time Las not come for putting in the j
proverbial "siitch in time" which shall
eventually "save mue. rur uu<r,vv?*v ,
of paint applied just a little before it is i
actually needed will often save most of ]
tne paint on the building by preventing j
it from letting go and causing endless
trouble au<l expense.
Taint lets go because linseed oil,
which is the "eeroent" that holds all
good paint together, gradually decays
or oxidizes, just as iron exposed to air
and dampness will slowly decay or oxi- j
<Tize. The water and oxygen in the air j
are the cause of the trouble in both
cases, and the only reason, ontside of
its beautifying effect, that we apply
paint to wood or iron Is because we
want to keep water and air away from
them. Live paint, that is. paint in
which the linseed oil is still oily, does
this very effectually, but dead paint,
that is. paint in which the oil is no
longer oily, is no more impervious to
air ami water than a single thickness
f cheesecloth wonld be.- If then we
apply a fresh coat of oily paint before
the old paint is dead, the oil from the
new coat will penetrate the old coat,
and the whole coating will once more
become alive, and this method of renovation
may go on indefinitely.
This explains why it is better economy
to repaint a little before it becomes
absolutely necessary than a little after.
When the paint is once dead the fresh
coat will pull flie whole coating off.
In the days when repjHutmg meant a
general turning of ihingg upside down, |
a two-weeks' "cluttering up" of the
place with kegs, cans and pails, a Jot
of inflammable and ill-smelling mater-:
;als standiug around, etc.. the dread of
painting time was natural. So was the I
dread of soap-iuaking time, of shirtmaking
time, of candle-moulding time
and the like. But we live in an age
when soap comes from the store better
and cheaper than we can make it
when shirts are soid ready made for
^ less than we can buy the materials,
when we can burn coal oil or gas
cheaper than we can make tallow-candles,
and when all we have to do when
we want to repaint is to pick out our
colors from the card at the store and
pay the painter for putting oa the
paint.
When It conies to picking out the
j paint it is not necessary that one
[ should be a paint chemist any more
than one should be an oil chemist when
buying kerosene, or a department store
buyer when selecting shirts, or a soap
chemist when buying soap. All that
Is necessary to insure a fair show is
some knowledge of the character of
; our paint dealer and the reputation
and stauding of the maker of the paint
offered. Nor must cue expect to buy
a pure linseed oil paint for the price
of linseed oil alone. It can be taken
for granted when any one offers to
sell dollar bills at a discount, he is baiting
a hook for "suckers." So it can
be :aken for granted when any one?
whether mail order house, paint man
ufacturer or dealer?offers paint too
cheap, he is bidding for. the trade of
' suckers," no matter what his promises.
But naints sold in responsible stores
under the brands of reputable manufacturers
are all good products, differing
from one another in the less important
matter of the solid pigments contained.
but practically alike in having
their liquid portions composed essentially
of pure linseed oil. ? The competition
of the better class of paints
has driven inferior goods practically
out of the market, and 110 manufacturer
of standiug now puts ont a poor
paint, under his own name at least.
As to guarantees on paint, they can
be taken for what they are worth.
Any reputable manufacturer will make
good any defect actually traceable to
the paint itself and not to improper
use or treatment of it. The really important
guarantee which the paint
buyer should exact from his dealer is
that the paiut is made by a manufacturer
that knows liis business and
that the paint itself has a record. If
lie secures this guarantee he can affnv/7

"Cnticnra is a Blessing."
"At all times and to all people I am
willing to testify to the merits of Cuticura.
It saved me from worse cnan the
torture of hades, about the year 1900, with
itching on my scalp and temples, and afterwards
it commenced to break out on
my hands. Then it broke out on ray limbs.
I then went to a surgeon, whose treatment
did me no good, but rather aggravated
the disease.' 1 then told him I
would go and see a physician in Erie. The
reply was that I could go anywhere, but
a case of eczema like mine could not be
cured; that I was too old (80). I went to
an eminent doctor in the city of Erie and
treated with him for six months, with
like results. I had read of the Cuticura
Remedies, and so I sent for the Cuticura
Soap, Ointment and Resolvent, and continued
taking the Resolvent until i had

INTELLI6ENTW0MEN PREPARE
Dangers and Pain of This Critical Period
voided by the Use of Lydia E. Pink,
ham's Vegetable Compound.
ngBmnj How many women
realize that
the most critical
I period in a woa
man's existence
9 ^ \wM: *8 the change of
I 9 ^ Hfe, and that the
(1 anxiety felt by
women as this
ll time draws near
^AfrtAEGJ/yland 1J is not without
u 1 11 reason ?
If her system is in a deranged condition,
or she is predisposed to apoplery
or congestion of any organ, it is at this
time likely to become active and, with
a host of nervous irritations, make life
a burden. .
At this time, also, cancers and tumors
are more liable to begin their destructive
work. Such warning symptoms as
a sense of suffocation, hot flashes, dizziness,
headache, dread of impending
evil, sounds in the ears, timidity, palpitation
of the heart, sparks before the
eyes, irregularities, constipation, variable
appetite, weakness and inquietude
are promptly heeded by, intelligent
women who are approaching the period
of life when woman's great change
may be expected.
We believe Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is the world's great- i
est remedy for women at this trying
period.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
invigorates and strengthens the
female organism, and builds up the
weakened nervous system as no other
medicine can.

Dear Mrs. Pinkbam:?
" I bad been suffering with a displacement

with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound as you directed, and I am happy
to say that all those distressing symptoms left
me, and I have passed safely through the
change of life a well woman."
For special advice regarding this important
period women are invited to

She is daughter-in-law of Lydia ?.
Pinkham and for twenty-five years has

^INSPIRATION CAME IN FROLIC,
Chopin's Funeral March Composed Under
Strange Circumstances. y
Many people have heard the
"Marche Funebre" of Chopin, but few
are aware that it had its origin in a
rather ghastly after-dinner frolic.
The painter Ziem, still living in hale
old age, relates how, some fifty-six
years ago, he had given a little Bohemian

of the shellfish that are brought to

upon because the selling price has
been so low that it has scarcely paid
to bring the catches to market.
