TO SHINE AS STARS.
HOW THE CHRISTIAN WORKERS WILL
' BE REWARDED ABOVE.

I.ord'H Vim-yard — Christian CoiiHtella-
tlons That Will Roam on Fore"er.
Washington, Sept. 19.—This tlis-
Tourse Hashes a bright light into the life
of Christian workers and offers a sub
lime hope for all those who are discour
aged in their attempts to do good. Dr.
Talmage’s text is Daniel xii, 3, "They
that turn many to righteousness shall
shine as tho stars forever and ever. ”
Every man has a thousand roots and
a thousand branches. His roots reach
down throngh all the earth. His branch
es spread through all the heavens. He
speaks with voice, with eye, with hand, j
with foot. His silence often is loud as
thunde r and his life is a dirge or a dox-
ology. There is no such thing as nega
tive influenco. We are all positive in
the place we occupy, making the world
better or making it worse, on the Lord’s
side or on the devil’s, making up rea
sons for our blessedness or banishment,
and we have already done work in peo
pling heaven or boll. I hear people tell
of what they are going to do. A man
who has bnrned down a city might as
well talk of some evil that he expects to
do, or a man who lias saved an empire
might as well tall: of some good that he
expects to do. By tho force of your evil
influence you have already consumed
infinite values, or you have by the pow
er of a right influence won whole king
doms for (lod.
It would be absurd for mo, by elabo
rate argument, to prove that the world
is off tho tmek. You might as well
stand at the foot of an embankment,
amid the wreck of a capsized rail train,
proving by elaborate argument tliat
some tiling is out of order. Adam tum
bled over tho embankment 60 centuries
ago, and the whole race, in one long
train, has gone on tumbling in tho same
direction. Crash! Crash! The only ques
tion now is. By what leverage can tho
crushed thing lie lifted? By wlmt ham
mer may the fragments be reconstruct
ed? I want to show you how wo may
turn many to righteousness and what
will bo our future pay for so doing.
Charm of » Right Rxamplt.
First, we may turn them by the
charm of a right example. A child com
ing from a filthy homo was taught at
school to wash its face. It went home
so much improved in appearance that
its mother washed her face, and when
the father cf the household came homo
and saw the improvement in domestic
appearance lie washed his face. The
ncighb rs, happening in, saw the change
and tried the kuiio experiment, until
all that street was purified, and the next
street copied its example, and the whole
city felt the result of one schetolboy
washing his face. That is a fable by
which we set forth tliat the best way to
«(t the world washed of its sius and
pollution is to have our own heart and
life cleansed and purified. A man with
grace in his heart and Christian cheer
fulness in his face and holy consistency
in his behavior is a perpetual sermon,
and th ■ sermon differs from others in
that it has but emo head and the longer
it runs the better.
Tin to are honest men who walk down
Wall s' lvi't mailing the teeth of iniqui
ty chatter There are happy men who
go into a sickroom and by a look hell)
the broken bone to knit and the excited
nerves drop to a <
■ihn heating.
are pure men whose presence silences
the tongue of uncleanuess. The might
iest agent of good on earth is a consist
ent Christian. I like the Bible folded
between lids of cloth or calfskin or
morocco, but I like it better when, in
the shape of a man, it out into t!
world a IMHo illnstr.it d. Com.ore is
beautiful to read about, but ratlv r
would 1 s o a nu ll with sfll the world
against him confid'. nt as though all tho
world were for him. i'utiiuco i> beau
tiful to read about, but rather would I
see a buffeted soul calmly waiting fur
village and reach the seaport in time to
gain the ship that sails on the morrow, j
hut a mother’s prayer will bo on the
dock to meet him, and in the hammock 1
before he swings into it. and at the cap- I
Stan 1>: fore ho winds tho rope around, {
and on the sea, against tho sky. as the j
vessel plows on toward it. There is a
mightiness in prayer. George Muller 1
prayed a company of poor boys to- !
gether, and then ho prayed up an asy- I
lum in which they might be sheltered.
He turned his face toward Edinburgh I
and prayed and there came £1,000. He |
turned his face toward London and |
prayed and there came £1,000. Ho I
turned his face toward Dublin and
prayed and there came £1,000. The |
breath of Elijah’s prayer blew all tho
clouds off the sky, and it was dry !
weather. The breath of Elijah’s prayer !
blow all the clouds together, and it was 1
wet weather. Prayer, in Daniel’s time,
walked tho cave as a lion tamer. It j
reached up and took the sun by its gold
en bit and stopped it and tho moon by
its silver bit and stopped it.
Wo have all yet to try the full power
of prayer. The time will come when
the American church will pray with its
face toward the west, and all the prai
ries and inland cities will surrender to
God and will pray with face toward the
sea, and all the islands and ships will
btwome Christian. Parents who have
wayward sons will get down on their
knees and say, "Lord, send my Ixiy
home,” and tho boy in Canton will get
right up from the gaming table and go
down to find out which ship starts first
for America.
None Knows How to Pray.
Not one of us yet knows howto pray
All wo have done as yet has only been
pottering. A boy gets hold of his fa
ther’s saw and hammer and tries to
make something, but it is a poor affair
that ho makes. The father comes and
takes the same saw and hammer and
builds tho house or the ship. In tho
childhood of our Christian faith wo
make but poor work with these weapons
of prayer, but when we come to the
stature of men in Christ Jesus then, un
der these implements, tho temple of
God will ruse and the world’s redemp
tion will bo launched. God cares not
for tho length of our prayers, or the
number of our prayers, or the beauty of
our prayers, or the place of our prayers,
but it is tho faith in them that tells
Believing prayer soars higher than the
lark ever’ sang, plunges deeper than div
ing hell ever sank, darts quicker than
lightning ever flashed. Though we have
used only tho back of this weapon in-
; stead of tho edge, what marvels have
1 been wrought! If saved, wo are all the
1 captives of some earnest prayer. Would
I God tliat, in desire for tho rescue of
| souls, we might in prayer lay hold of
the resources of the Lord Omnipotent!
Wo may turn many to righteousness;
by Christian admonition. Do not wait
until you can make a formal speech.
Address the one next to you. You will
not go home alone today. Between this!
and your place of stopping you may de
cide the eternal destiny of an immortal
spirit. Just one sentence may do the
work, just one question, just one look
Tho formal talk that begins with a sigh
and ends with a canting snuffle is not
what is wanted, hut the heart throb of
a man in dead earnest. There is not a
soul on earth that you may not bring to
(lod if you rigidly go at it. They : aid
Gibraltar could not be taken. It is a
rook 1,600 feet high and 3 milo?. long,
hut the English and Dutch did take it.
Artillery and sappers and miners ar d
fleets pouring out volleys of death and
thousands of me n reckless of.danger can
do anything. The stoutest heart of sin,
though it be rock and surrounded by an
ocean < f transgression, under Christian
bombardment may hoist the flag of re
demption.
But is all this admonition and pray r
and ( hristian work for nothing? My
text pronii.- s to all the faithful et r al
luster. "Ti’ey that turn many to r-ht-
brated. as if in all the space, from gate
to gate and from bill to hill, he were
tho only inhabitant—no mixing up. no
mob, no indiscriminate rush, each
Christian worker standing out illustri
ous, all the story of earthly achieve
ment adhering to each one, his self de
nials and pains and services and vic
tories published.
Before men went out to the last war
the orators told them that they would
all U> remembered by their country and
their names be commemorated in poetry
and in song. But go to tho graveyard in
Richmond, and }*ou will find there
6,000 grave's, over each of which is tho
Inscription, “Unknown. ” The world
does not remember its heroes, but there
will be no unrecognized Christian
worker in heaven. Each one known by
all—grandly known, known by accla
mation, all the past story of work for
God gleaming in cheek and brow and
foot and palm. They shall shine with
distinct light as the stars forever and
ever.
Family Clrclps of Star*.
Again, Christian workers shall shine
like the stars in clusters. In looking up
you find tho worlds in family circles.
Brothers and sisters, they take hold ( f
each other’s hands and dance in groups
Orion in a group. The Pleiades in a
group. The solar system is only a com
pany of children, with bright faces,
gathered around one groat fireplace
Tho worlds do not straggle off. They
go in squadrons and fleets, sailing
through immensity. So Christian work
ers in heaven will dwell in neighbor
hoods and clusters.
I am sure that some people I will
like in heaven a great deal Ik tter than
others. Yonder is a constellation of
stately Christiana They lived on earth
by rigid rule. They never laughed
They walked every hour, anxious lest
they should lose their dignity But they
loved God, and yonder they shino in
brilliant constellation. Yet 1 shall not
long to got into that particular group.
Yonder is a constellation of small heart-
! ed Christians—asteroids in tho eternal
| astronomy. While some souls go up
I from Christian battle and blaze like
Mars these asteroids dart a feeble ray
like Vesta. Yonder is a constellation cf
martyrs, of apostles, of patriarchs. Our
souls as they go up to heaven will seek
uut the most congenial society.
Yonder is a constellation almost
merry with the play of light. On earth
they were full of sympathies and songs
and tears and raptures and congratula
tions. When they prayed, their words
took fire; when they sang, the tune
could not hold them; when they wept
over a world’s woes, they sobbed as if
heartbroken; when they worked for
Christ, they flamed with enthusiasm.
Yonder they are—circle of light, con
stellation of joy, galaxy of lire. Oh,
that yon and I, by that grace which can
transform the worst into the best, might
at last sail in the wake of that fleet and
wheel in that glorious group as the
stars forever and ever!
Again, Christian workers will shine
like tho shirs in swiftness of motion
I The worlds do not stop to shine. There
are no fixed stars, eavo as to relative
position. The star apparently most thor
oughly fixed flies thousands of miles a
minute. The astronomer, using his tele
scope for an alpenstock, leaps from
world crag to world crag and finds no
star standing still. The chamois lump r
has to lly to catch his prey, bat not >
swift is his game as that which th • sci
entist tries to shoot through the tower
of observatory. Like ]x-trels midatlan-
tie, thul seem to come from no shore,
and be bound to no landing place, fly
ing, flying, so these great flocks of
worlds rest not as they go, wing and
wing, ago after age, forever and ever
Tho ('agio hastes to its prey, but wo

as though he saw every- Christian workers, standing around tho
thing. Oh, how many souls have been
turned to God by the charm of a bright
example!
When, in the Mexican war, the
troops were wavering, a general rose in
his stirrups and dashed into the enemy’s
lines, shouting, "Men, follow mo!"
They, seeing his conrago and disposi
tion, dashed on after him and gained |
tho victory. What men want to rally
them for God is an example to lead
them. All your commands to others to
advance amount to nothing as long as
yon stay behind. To affect them aright
yon need to start for heaven yourself,
looking back only to give the stirring
cry of "Men, follow!”
The Fewer of Prayer.
Again, wo may turn many to right-
eousnoss by prayer. There is no such
detective as prayer, for no ono can hide
away from it. It puts its hand on tho
shoulder of a man 10,000 miles off. It
alights on a ship midatlantic. Tho
little child cannot under: land the law
of electricity or how tho telegraph oikt-
ator, by touching the instrument here,
may dart a message under the sea to
another continent, nor can we, with
our small intellect, understand how tho
touch of a Christian’s prayer shall in
stantly strike a soul on tho other sido
of the earth. You take shin and go to
some ' tl or country and get there at 11
o’clock in tho morning. You telegraph
to America and the message gets hero
et 6 o'clock the same morning. In other
words, it seems to arrive hero five hours
before it started. Like tliat is prayer.
God says, "Before they call 1 will
hear. " To overtake a loved ono on the
road you may spur up a lathered steed |
until ho shall outraco the ono that
.brought the news to Ghent, but a pray
er shall catch it ut ono gallop. A boy
munitig away from homo may take
the midnight train from the country
throne, Vv'ill .• kifto in the light borrowed
from the Sun of Righteousness—Jesus
in their faces, Jesus in their songs, Je
sus in their triumph.
To Si.iuo on Forevrr.
Christ loft heaven once for a tour of
redemption on earth, yet the glorified
ones knew ho would come back again.
But let him alxlicate his throne and go
away to stay forever, the music would
stop, the congregation would disperse,
the temples of God bo darkened, tho
rivers of life stagnate, and over chariot
would become a hearse, and every bell
would toll, and there would not be
room on tho hillsides to bury tho dead
of the great metropolis, for there would
be pestilence in heaven. But Jesus lives,
and so all the redeemed livo with him.
He shall recognize them as his comrades
in earthly toil and rememlier what they
did for the honor of his name and for
the spread of his kingdom. All their
prayers and tears and work will rise be
fore him as he looks into their faces,
and ho will divide his kingdom with
them—his pence, their peace; his holi
ness, their holiness; his joy, their joy.
The glory of the central throne reflected
from the surrounding thrones, tho ho t
spot of sin struck from tho Christian
orb, and the entire nature a-treiuble
and a-flash with light, they shall shin*'
as the stars forever and ever.
Again, Christian workers shall ho
like the star.- in the fact tliat they have
a light independent of each other Lo< k
up at the night and use each world
show its distinct glory. It is not like
the conflagration, in which you cannot
tell where one flame stops and another
begins. Neptune, Herscht 1 and Mercury
are ns distinct ns if each one of them
were the only star So our individual-
ism will not l>o lost in heaven. A great
multitude—yet each one as observable,
us distinctly recognized, as greatly cehv
and as ho passes the
the earth m such quial:
:s take tho Kiiao vihra-
-o tilings are not swift
of wh;”h
1 spiak. The moon movi s fH.noo i.iihs
in a day. Yonder Neptune fl.e xes on
11,000 miles in an hour. Yonder Mer
cury goes 109,000 mih s in un hour, i-m
like the stars the Christian shall shine
in swiftness of motion.
With the Spreil of a Star.
You hear now of father or mother or
child sick 1,000 miles away, and it
takes you two days to get to them. You
hear of some case of suffering tliat de
mands your immediate attention, but it
takes you an hour to get there. Oh, the
joy when you shall, in fulfillment of
the text, take starry speed and be equal
to 100,000 miles an hour! Having on
earth got used to Christian work, yon
will not quit when death strikes you
You will only take on more velocity.
There is a dying child in London, and
its spirit must be taken up to God. You
are there in an instant to do it. There
is a young man in New York to be ar
rested from going into tliat gate of sin.
You are there in an instant to arrest
him. Whether with spring of foot, or
stroke of wing, or by tho force of some
new law that shall hurl you to the spot
where you would go, 1 know not, but
my text suggests velocity. All space
open before you, with nothing to hin
der you in mission of light and love
mid joy, you shall shine in swiftness of
motion as tho stars forever and ever.
Again, Christian workers, like tho
stars, shino in magnitude. The most il
literate man knows that these things in
tho sky, looking like gilt buttons, arc
great masses of mutter. To weigh
them one would think that it would re
quire scales with a pillar hundreds of
thousands of miles high and chains hun
dreds of thousands of miles long, and
at tho bottom of the chains basins on
either side hundreds of thousands of
miles wide, and that then Omnipotence
alone could put the mountains into the
scales and the hills into tho balance,
but puny man has been equal to the un
dertaking and has set a littlo balance
on his geometry urd weighed world
against world. Yea, he lias pulled out
his measuring line and announced that
Herschel is 36,000 miles in diameter,
Saturn 79,000 miles in diameter and
Jupiter 89,000 miles in diametirand
that the smallest pearl on the beach of
heaven is immense beyond all imagina
tion. So all they who have toiled for
Christ on earth shall rise un to a mag
nitude of privilege, and a magnitude of
strength, and a magmtmte of holiness,
and a magnitude of joy, and tho weak
est saint in glory become greater than
all that we can imagine of an archangel
Brethren, "It doth not yet appear
what wo shall be.” Wisdom that shall
know everything, wealth that shall pos
sess everything, strength tl at shall do
everything, glory that shall circum
scribe everything! We shall not be like
a taper set in a sick man's window, or j
a bundle of sticks kindled on the bwh (
to warm a shivering crew, but you must j
take the diameter and the circumfer
ence of a world if you would get any '
idea of the greatness of our estate when '
wo shall shine as the stars forever and |
ever.
The Rclgrn Without End.
Lastly—and coming to this point my !
mind almost breaks down under the ;
contemplation—like the stars, all Chris
tian workers shall shine in duration
The same stars that look down upon ns
looked down upon tho Chaldean shep
herds The meteor that I saw flashing
across the sky the other night I won
der if it was not tho same one that
pointed down to where Josns lay in the'
manger, and if, having pointed ont his
birthplace, it has ever since been wan
dering through the heavens, watching
to p**o how the world would treat him!
When Adam awoke in the garden in
the cool of the day. he saw coming out
through the dusk of the evening th“
same worlds that greeted us last night
in Indc|>e.udeuce hall is an old cracked
Ixdl that sounded the signature of the
Declaration of Independence. Yon can
not ring it now, but this great chime of
silver bells tliat strike in the dome of
night ring out as sweet a tone as when
God swnug them at the creation. Look
up at night and know that the white
lilies that bloom in all the hanging
gardens of our King arc century plants’
—not blooming ouco in 100 years, but
throngh all the centuries. The star at
which tho mariner looks tonight wax
the light by which tho ships of Tarshish
were guided across the Mediterranean
and the Venetian flotilla found its way
into Lepauto. Their armor is as bright
tonight as when, in ancient battle, tho
stars in their courses fought against
Siscra.
To the ancients the stars were sym
bols of eternity. But here the figure of
my text breaks down—not in defeat,
but in tho majesties of the judgment
The stars shall not shine forever. The
Bible says they shall fall like autumnal
leaves. As when the connecting factory
hand slips at, nightfall from tho main
wheel all the smaller wheels slacken
their iqx'‘'d and with slower and slower
motion they turn until they come to a
full stop, so this great machinery of tho
universe, wheel within wheel, making
revolution of appalling speed, shall, by
tho touch of (bid’s hand, slip the hand
of present law and slacken and stop.
That is what will be the matter with
the mountains. Tho chariots in which
they ride shall halt so suddenly that
tho kings shall be thrown out. Star
after star shall, be carried out to burial
nr*.id funeral torch sof burning worlds.
Constellations shall throw ashes on
their heads, and all up and down th<
highways of space there shall he mourn
ing, mourning, mourning, because t!><
worlds are dead. But the Christian
worke rs shall never quit their throne-
—they shall reign forever and ever.
Tlio I.41.H& Hug]<* Call.
The St. Louis Globe-Democrat ha
discovered that the last summons to
battle in the civil war was a bugle call
to charge given by Nathaniel Sisson
on the field i f Appomattox.
Mr. Sisson enlisted when the war
broke out and at its close was a bngl< i
nmier Custer His regiment was in t)u
saddle Leforo day on (lie eventful 8th
day of Apiil and began to skivini !)
with tho enemy. An hoar later tluy
r. al lied the position from which the
memorable call to charge was blown.
Tin' next moment two of Genera!
Gordon’s aids rode out in advance of the
column. One of them carried a tow> 1
* fastened to a musket. General Gordon
stated afterward that the towel was
soiled and ragged; but, old and torn as
it was, it carried u message of peace to
the whole country.
General Custer, seeing this flag nf
truce, halted his charging column and
rode alone to the tent of the Confeder
ate general. When he came out, he said
to General Kapehnrt, uncovering his
head, "General Lee is treating for ea-
pitulatiou. ”
The war was over.
Tho men nearest to him canght tho
quiet words and burst into a frenzied
cheer. They were men who had fought
bravely, but who thanked God now
that the war was ended. The chec r
swept down tho valley, and tho hills
shook with tho shout which meant
peace.
Let us hope that Nathaniel Sisson’s
bugle call to battle on tliat April morn
ing was the last that shall ever summon
brother to charge against brother in
this land of ours.
