Trajan and Antoninus. Christ in the vision broke the second seal and unrolled again, and there was a picture of a red horse, and that meant bloodshed, mid so it really came to pass, and the next bo years were red with assassinations and w: rs. Then , Christ broke the third seal and unroll- ; ed it. and there was a picture of a , black horse, which In all literature j I means famine, oppression and taxa tion; and so it really came to pass, j Christ went < n urilil lie broke all tin* ! J seven seals and opened all the scroll, j I Well, the future of all of us is a sealed I scroll, and I am glad that no one but i Christ can open it. Do not let us join 1 that class of Christians in our day, | i who are trying to break the seven seals i of the future. They are trying to peep into things they have no business with. Do not go to some necromancer or * * spiritualist or soothsayer or fortune teller to find out what is going to hap 1 n to yours-if or your family or your friends. Wait till Christ breaks the i seal to find out whether in your own per-imal life or the life of the tuition | | or tlie life of the world it is going to be the white horse of prosperity or the red j horse of war or the black horse of lam j ine. Y'ou will soon enough see him paw j ami hear him neigh. Take care of the • present, and the future will take care I of itself. If a man live 70 years, his i biography is in a scroll having at least seven seals, and let him not during the first ten years of Ids life try to look In to the twenties, nor the twenties Into the thirties, nor the thirties Into the forties, nor the forties Into the fifties, nor tiie* fifties into the sixties, nor the* sixties into tiie* seventies. From the* way the years have got the habit of racing along. 1 guess you will not have to wait a great while* before all the seals of the future are broken.

Suppose some one could breal tlx* next seal in tlx* scroll of your per sonal history and should tell you that on the next -Hh of July.

Dear me! I wish no one* had told me so long before*. I wish that ne cromancer had not broken thcseal of the future.” And meeting some under taker, you would say; "1 hope you will keep yourself fax* for an engagement the 4th of July.

There is another mighty seven of the Bible—viz. the seven thunders. What those thunders meant we are not told, mid there has been much guessing about them; hut they are to come, we are told, before the end of all things, ami the world cannot get along with out them. Thunder is the speech of lightning. There are evils in our world which must he thundered down and which will rei|tilre at least seven vol leys to prostrate them. We are all do ing idee, delicate, soft handed work in churches and reformatory institu tions against the evils of the world, and inueli of It amounts to a teaspoon dipping out flit* Atlantic ocean, or a rlsun shell digging a way at a moun tain. or a tack hammer smiting the Gibraltar. What is needed is thunder bolts, 11 ixl at least seven of them. There Is the long line of fraudulent commer cial establishments, every stone in the foundation, and evt ry brick in the wall, and every nail in the rafter made out vf dir-liotic. ty; HkelctoiiK of poorly paid sowing girls' arms iu every beam of that establishment; human nerves worked into every figure of tl.at em broidery; blood in the deep dye of that refulgent uphol tery; billions of dollars of accumulated fraud Intrenched In massive storehouse*, and stock compa nies manipulated by unscrupulous men. until the monopoly is defiant of all earth and heaven. ’ ii* w shall the evil • »* overcome? By treatises on the maxim: “Honesty Is the best policyV" Or by soft repetition of the golden rule tint we must “do to others ns we 1 would have linn do to us7” No; It will not be done that way. What Is ! needed and will ecme Is the seven > thunders. Tliere Is drunkenness backed up by a ; capital mightier than iu any other bus)- i ness.

The Seventh Chrysolite. Oh, men and women, disheartened at the bad way things often go. hear you not a rumbling down the sky of licavy s artillery, coining iu on our side, the seven thunders ot the Almighty? Do not let us try to w ield them ourselves; they are too heavy and too fiery for us to handle; but Go J can, and God will; and wheu all mercy lias failed and all milder means are exhausted, then judgment will begin. Thundcrboh : Depend upon it that what is not done under the Hash of the seven candl- sticks will he done by the trampling of the seven thunders. But 1 leave tills imperial and mulllpolcnt m aie ..1 seven, where the Bible leaves it, i: bedded in the finest wall that wiMever built or will lie constructed, the v; ! of heaven. It is the seven strata < r precious stones that make up that wall. After naming six of the precx ;:s stones In that wall the Bible ori.s o :t. “the seventh chrysolite!" The chryso lite is an exquisite green, and in that seventh layer of the heavenly wall shall bo preserved forever the domi nant color of the earth we once inhab ited. 1 have sometimes been saddened at the thought that this world, accord ing to science and revelation, Is to be blotted out of existence, for it is such a beautiful world. But here Is this layer of the heavenly wall, where the numeral seven is to be embedded, this stinta of green Is to be photographed and embalmed and perpetuated, the color of the grass that covers thecart’i, the color of the foliage that tills tlx? forest, the color of tiie deep sea. One glance at that green chrysolite a mil lion years after this planet has been extinguished will bring to mind j:: 1 how it looked in summer and spring and we will say to those who were born blind on earth and never saw at all in this world, after they have ob tained full eyesight iu heaven. "If you would know how the earth appeared iu June and August, look at that sev enth layer of the heavenly wall, the green of the chrysolite.” And while we stand tliere a ml talk, spirit witli spirit, that old color of the earth which had more sway than all the other colors put together, will bring hack to us our earthly experiences, and noticing that this green chrysolite is the seventh layer of crystallized mag nificence, we may bethink ourselves of (lie domination of that numeral seven over nil other numerals, and thank God that U) the dnik earth we left V* hind us we so long enjoyed the light of the seven golden candlesticks and were all of us permitted to shine among the C( ?rt singing last .-'atur lx} night under I ho eHici nt mui ngement of 1‘rof.
