while hunting in an old drawer, found
omiong sorao^old flailing tackle tho
manuscript of his immortal book,
I "Waverley," welch; ho had put away
; thero as' of no .worth, and who knows
\but that to-day wo may find somo un
known wpa.lth of thought while look
ing atthe fishing- tuoklo in tho text.
(lt is not a good dny for fish lug, and
three ineu aro in tho boat repairing
too broken fishing nots. If you aro
fhyhing with a hook and line, and the
. Ciah will not bite, it ia a good timo to
put the angler's .app.aratus^nto bettor
couditloh, Perhaps tho last fish you
hauled in was so lar-go that something
snapped, or, if you were fishing with a
not, thero Was ? mighty floundering
of tho scales or an exposed nuil on the
?Ide ofelia boat which broke somo of
thc .throat's- and let part or all of tho
captivos of. tho deep, onenpe into thotr
salural, slsxaent. And hardly nny
tbing ls moro provoking than to nearly
land.a sooro or a hundred trophies
" 'ivom tho deop, niid when you are in tho
full gleo of hauling in tho spotted
treasures, through somo imperfection
of tho not thoy splash hack into the
? wave. That is too much of a trixi of
jpationoe for most flshernion to endure,
and many a roan ordinarily correct of
apoeob in such circumstances comes to
ton . atensity of utterance unjustifiable.
Therefor? no good fisherman conoid- .
.n-s tho timo wasted that is spent in
mending hiB not?. Kow, Ibo Bible again
and again represents Christian work
ara as fishers pl mun, arid we aro all
?weeping through Hie eon of humanity
como kind of a not. Indeed there have
been enough nets out and enough fish
orinen busy to have landed thc whole
human raco in the kingdom of God
tong beforo this. What ls the matter?
The .Gospel is all right, and it has been
ft good time for oatohlngsoulsforthou
. tanda of years. Why, then, the fail
ures? Tho trouble is with tho nets,
and most of thom need tobe mended. I
proposo to show you what is the mat
ter with most of the nets and how to
mend them. In tho text old Zebedee
?nd his two'boys, Jamba and John,
were doing/a good thipg whoa they sat
In tho boat mending their nets.
L.f?onblo with many of our nots
^'^'Vi'^at ^ho mesh?? aro too large. Jf
?. floh can got his gills and half his
body through tho network, he teurn
and ronda and works his way out, and
leaves the plaoe through whick he
aoulrnied a tangle of broken threads.
Sn our desire to make, everything so
easy wo relax, wo loosen, wo widen'.
{We 1st roon after they ore one? iu
tho Gospel not escape into tho world,
. and go into indulgences and swim all
around Galilee, from north side to
tfoutb oide? n?'d from east sido to weRt
'aldo, expeoting that they will come
back again. Wc ought to make it easy
for thom to get into tho Kingdom of
God, and, os far as wo can, make lt
Impossible for them to get out. Tho
poor advice nowadays 1o many is:
"Go and do just as you did before yon
wore oapturod for God and Heaven.
Tho net was not intended to bo any
restraint or any hindrance. What you
did before you woro a Christian do
now. Go to all styles of amuscmont,
read ujl tho styles of books, engage
tn all styles of behavior as boforo 3'ou
were converted." And so, through
these meshes of permission and laxity,
they Wiggle out through this open
ing and that opening, tearing tho not
aa they go, and soon all the sonia that
wo expeoted to land in Heaven, bo
tore we know it, ore back in the deep
?ta of tho world. Oh, when wo go
a-Gospol fishing, let ua make it os easy
a? possible for soul? to got in and aa
hard-as possible to got out.
Ia tho Bible language en unmeaning
verbiage when It talk? about solf-de
?la), and hooping the body under and
about walking tho narrow way and
?utering tho strait gato nnd about
? marrying tho cross? Is thera to bo no
woy of telling whether a man is a

communion chalioe on sacramental
day? May a man be as reckless about
hila thoughts, about his words, about
lita tompor, about his amusements

avorda of Christ are so little heeded
when Ho aoid: "Whosoever doth not
tbear his oroso and come nitor me can
not bo my disciple." Tho church ls

now going" on au awful ripping und
rending and tearing of fishing nets.
Indeed 0.11 over Christendom nt this
timo thero is a gerat war going on
between fishermen, ministers against
intuistors.
Now, I have noticed a man oanuot
fish and fight at tho sumo time. Ho
either neglects his net or his musket.
lt is amazing how muoh timo somo of
tho fishermen have to look after other
fishermen. lt is mara than T oau do
to tako caro of my own not. You see
tho wind is just right, and it is such ?
good time for fishing, and the fish aro
coming in no rapidly that I havo to
keop my oyos and hand busy. Thero
aro about 200,000,000 souls wanting to
Cet into tho kingdom of God, and it will
require all the net? nud all the fisher
men of Christendom to safely land
them. Oh, brethren of tho ministry,
let us spend our time j? fishing in
stead of fighting. But if I angrily jerk
my net ocrosa your net, and you jerk
your not angrily across mine, wo will
ituou havo two broken nets and no fish.
Tho French revolution nearly destroyed
tho French fisheries, and cc'olesiaqtioal
war is the worst thing poawlble while
hauling souls inlo tho kingdom. My
friends, I notice in the text th at.Tames,
til? son of Zebedee, and John, his
brother, were busy at mending some
body else's net?, and I rather think that
wo who are engaged in Christian work
In this opening century will require
tall our spare time te mond our own
nets. God help ue in Die important
duty I
In this work of repair we need to
put into the nets more Uhr ead s of com
mon sense. "When we cnn present reli
gion as a great practicality wo will
catch a hundred souls where now we
catch one. Present religion as nn in
tellectuality ?nd we ?iii f ail. Out in the
fisheries there ura set across the wa-'
ter? what arc called gill nets, and tho
fish put their heads through tho meshes
and then cannot withdraw them bc
onuso they ure oaught by the gill?.
?ut gill nets cannot be of any serviooin
roligious work. Men aro never oaught
for the truth by their heads; it is by
tho -heart or not ut all. Ko argument
ever saved a man ond no keen analysis
ever brought a mau into the kingdom
of God. Heart work, not head work.
Away with your gill nets! Sympathy,
helpfulness, consolation, love, aro the
names of some of tho threads that wo
need to weavo in our gospel uets when
we are mending them. *
"When you aro mending your net for
tim wide, deep sea of humanity, take
out that wiro thread of criticism and
j that horsehair thread of harshness
and put in a soft silken throad-of Chris
tian sympathy. Yea, when you . aro
mending your nets tear out those old
threads of gruffness and weavo in a
few threads of politeness and geniality.
In tho house of God let all Christian
faces beam with a look that means
welcome. Say "good morning" to the
stranger as he enters your pew and at
the olosc shake hands with him and
say: "How did you Uko the music?"
Why, you would bc to that man a panel
of tho door of'Heaven; you Wjjuld be to
him a noto ol' tho doxology that ser
aphs Bing when n now soul enters Heav
en. I havo in other days entored
a pew in church, and tho woman
at thc other end of tho pow looked at
me as much as to say: "How daroyou?
This is my pew, and I pay the rent for
it!" Well, 1 crouched in thc other cor
ner and made myself as small as pos
sible and felt as though 1 had been
stealing something. So there ar? peo
ple who have a sharp edge to their re
ligion, and they act as though they
thought most people had been eleoted
to bb damned and they wore glad of it.
Oh, let na brighten up our manner and
appear in gentlemanliness or lady
hood.
Again, in mending our nets we need
also to put in the threads of faith and
toar out all tho tangled meshes of un
belief. Our work is successful accord
ing to our faith. Tho man who be
lieves in only half a Biblo or tho Bible
in spots, th? man who thinks ho can
not porBuade others, tho man who
halts, doubting about ,this and doubt
ing about that, will bo a failure in
Christian work. Show me the man who
rather thinks that tho garden of Eden
mny have had an allegory and is not
quite certain but that thore may bo
another ohaiioe after do-ith and does
not know whether or not thc Bible is
inspired, and I tell you that mun for
soul saving is a poor stick. Faith in
God and in Jesus ChriBt and the Holy
Ghost and the absolute necessity of a
regenerated heart in order to see God
lu peace is one thread you must have
in your mended not, or you will never
be a successful fisher for men. Why,
how can you doubt? The rottenest
thread to tear o\it of your net is unbe
lief, and the most important thread
that you aro to put in it is faith-faith
in God, triumphant faith, everlasting
faith.
Oh, this important work of mending
our netsl If wo could get our net?
right, we would accomplish more in
soul aaving in tho next year than wo
have lu tho last 20. Bu whore shall wc

their religion cannot help you a bit.
These dear brethren of all denomi
nations, afflicted with theological fidg
ets, had better go to mending Hots in
stead of breaking them, Bcfora they
brenk up tho old religion and try to
foist on us a new religion let them go
through some great sacrifice, for God
that will prove tjicm worthy for such
a work, taking thc advice of Tallyrand
to a man, who wanted to upset the re
ligion of Jesus Christ and start a new
ono when ho nuki: "Go and be cruel
fled and thon raice yourself from tho
gravo tho third- dayl" Those who
propose to mend tholr nets by secu
lar and skeptical boolcB aro llko tho
mon who has just one week for fish
, ing, and six of tho days be spends in
rending Izaak \,Valtou's "Completo
Angler" and Wheatley's "Bod and

Wators," and Pullman's "Vado Mccum
of Fly Fishing for Trout.'' and thon
on Saturday morning, I1I9 last day out,
goes to tho river to ply bis nrt. tint
that day tko fish will not bite, and
lato on Saturday night ho goes to his
homo with empty bnsket. Alas, alas!
If when tho Saturday night of our
lifo drops ou \is lt Bb all bo found that
we have spent our timo iii tho libraries
of worldly philosophy, trying to mend
our nota, and wc have only a few souls
to report as brought to God through
our instrumentality, while BOIUO hum

a Bible aud an almanac, eli all come

trophies all the souls within 15 miles

Tn tko time of great disturbance in
Naples in 10-19 Massanlello, a barefoot
ed Ashing boy, dropped bis fishing rod
and by strange magnetism took 'com?
. marni of that city ?.?f G00.OOO souls. Be
took off bis fishing jacket nnd put on a
robe of gold in thc presence of howling
mobs. Bo put his. hand on bis lip us
a signal, and they were silent. Bo
waved his hand away from bim, and
they retired to their homes. Armies
passed in review before bim. Bo be
oamc the nation's Idol. Tho rapid rise
?nd complete supremacy of that young
fisherman, Massaniello, has no parallel
in all history.. But something equal to
that and better than that is an every
day poourrenoo In Heaven. God takes
some of those who in this world were
fishers of men and who toiled very
humbly, but because o"f tho way they
mended their uetB and employed their
net? after they wero mended Be sud
denly hoists them and robes them und
soeptors them and crowns them and
makes them rulers over many cities,
and He marobee armies of saved ones
before thom in review.
But do not spend your time fishing
with hook and line. Why did not
James, the son of Zebedee, tit on the
wharf at Cann, his feet hanging over
the lake, and with a long pole and a
worm on the hook dipped into the wayo
wait for some mullet to swim up and
bo caught? Why did ri ot Zebedee
spend his afternoon trying to catch ono
eel? No, that work was too Blow.
These men wero not mending a hook
and lino; tliey wero mending their
nets. So lot tho oh uren of God not be
content with having hero one soul and.
next month anothor soul brought into
thq kingdom. Swoop all the seas with
nets-scoop nots, seino nets, dragnets,
all 'encompassing nets, and take tho
treasures in by hundreds and thou
sands and millions, and nations will be
born in n day and the hemispheres
quake with the tread of a ransoming
God. Bo you know what will be tho
two most tremeiulous hours in our
Heavenly existence? Among the'quad:.,
rillionu of ages which shall roll on
what two occasions will bo to us tho
greatest? The day of our arrival thero
will be to us one of tho two greatest.
Tho second' greatest, I think, will be
the day when 'we shall hare'put iu
