Contrasts Her WuiU With I’resent !>«>■ Methods—Woman God’s Hand maiden Nn the Alleviation of Mis ery—A Keeonl of Self lleuial. Warhixoton, July 15.—Dr. Talmago, who Is still traveling In northern Eu rope, has forwarded the following re port of a serfnon In which he utters helpful words to all who are engaged In alleviating human distresses and shows how such work will be crowned at the last; text, Acts ix, 20, “And all the widows stood by Idm weeping and showing him the coats and garments which Dorcas made while e was with them.” Joppa Is a most absorbing '7 of the orient. Into her harbor once float ed the rafts of Lebanon cedar from which the temples of Jerusalem wero bullded, Solomon’s oxen drawing tho logs through the town. Here Napo leon had 500 prisoners mnssaenjd. One of the most magnificent charities of the centuries was started in this sea port by Dorcas, a woman with her nee dle embroidering her name ineffacea- bly into the beneficence of the world. 1 see her sitting in yonder home. In the doorway and around about the building and In the room where she sits are the pale faces of the poor. She listens to their plaint, she pities their woe, she makes garments for them, she adjusts the manufactured articles to suit the bent form of this invalid wom an and to the cripple that comes crawl ing on his hands and knees. She gives a coat to this one; she glvcsk sandals to that one. With the gifts she mingles prayers and tears and Christian en couragement. Then she goes out to be greeted on the street corners by those whom she has blessed, and all through the street the cry Is heard, “Dorcas is coming!” The sick look up gratefully In her face as she puts her hand on tho burning brow, and the lost and the abandoned start up with hope as they hear her gentle voice, as though an an gel had addressed them, and as she goes out the lane eyes half put out with sin think they see a halo of light about her brow and a trail of glory In her pathway. That night a half paid shipwright climbs the hill and reaches home and secs his little boy well clad and says. “Where did these clothes come from?” And they tell him, “Dor cas lias been here." In another place a woman is trimming a lamp; Dorcas bought the oil. In another place a family that had not been at table for many a week ffre gathered now, for Dorcas has brought bread. Dorcaa the Dlaclple. But there Is u sudden pause In that woman’s ministry. They say: “Where is Dorcas? Why, we haven’t seen her for many a day. Where Is Dorcas?” And one of these poor people goes up and knocks at the door and finds the mystery solved. All through tho haunts of wretchedness the news comes. “Dorcas Is sick!” No bulletin flashing from the palace gate telling the stages of a king’s disease Is more anxiously waited for than the news from tills benefactress. Alas, for Jop pa there Is walling, walling! That voice which has uttered so many cheer ful words is hushed; that hand which has made so many garments for the poor Is cold and still; the star which had poured light Into the midnight of wretchedness is dimmed by the blind ing mists that go up from tho river of death. In every forsaken place In that town, wherever there Is a sick child and no balm, wherever there is hunger and no bread, wherever there Is guilt and no commiseration, wherever there Is a broken heart and no comfort, there arc despairing looks and streaming eyes and frantic gesticulations as they cry, "Dorcas is dead!” They send for the apostle Peter, who happens to be In the suburbs of the place, stopping with a tanner of tho name of Simon. Peter urges hls way through the crowd around Jl^e door and stands in the presence of tin’ dead. Wlmt demonstration of grief all about him! Here stand some of the poor people, who show the garments which this poor woman had made for them. Their gtlef cannot be appeased. Tho apostle Peter wants to perform a mira cle. He will not do it amid the excited crowd, so he orders that the whole room be cleared. The njiostle stands now with the dead. Oh, It Is a serious moment, you know, when you are alone with a lifeless body! The apostle gets down on ids knees and prays, and then he comes to the lifeless form of tills one all ready for the sepulcher, and in the str*'* ’th of him who Is the resur rection f cries, “Tabitha, arise!” There is a stir In the fountains oi life; the heart flutters; the nerves thrill; the cheek flushes; the eye open^; she sits up! We see in this subject Dorcas the disciple, Dorcas the benefactress, Dor cas the lamented, Dorcas the^fVsur- reeled. Life's Greatest Dutr, If I had not seen that word disciple in my text, I would have known this woman was a Christian. Buch music ns that never came from a heart which is not chorded uud strung by divine grace. Before I show you the needle work of this woman I want to show you her regenerated heart, the source of a pure life and of all Christian char ities. I wish that the wives and moth ers and daughters and sisters of all the earth would Imitate Dorcas in her «lis- clpleship. Before you cross the thresh old of the hospital, before you enter upon the temptations and trials of to morrow, I charge you In the name of Hod and by the turmoil and tumult of the Judgment day, O woman, that you attend to th« first, last and greatest duty of your life—the seeking for God and being at peace with him! Wfte# the trumpet shall sound, there will b« an uproar and a wreck of mountain aud continent, and no human arm cun help you. Amid the rising of the dead and amid tUlf boiling of yonder sea and amid the live, leaping thunders of the flying heavens calm and placid will be every woman'* he^rf who hath put her trust In Christ—calm notwithstanding all the tumult, us though the tire iu the heavens were only the glidings of an autumnal sunset, as though the pea! pf the trumpet were only the harmony of su orchestra, as though the awful voices of fh* eh;- were but a group of friends bursting through U gateway at eveutlmo with laughter and shouting, “Dorcas the disciple!” Would God |hnt every Mary and every Martha would this day sit down at the feet of Jesus! Further, we see Dorcas, the benefac tress. History has told tlie story of the crown; epic poet Las sung of the sword; the pastoral poet, with hls verses full of the redolence of clover tops and a-rustle with the silk of the corn, has sung the praises of the plow. I tell you the praises of the needle. From the flg leaf robe prepared In the garden of Eden to the last stitch taken ou the garment for tlie poor the needle has wrought wonders of kindness, gen erosity and benefaction. It adorned the girdle of the high priest, It fash ioned the curtains in the ancient tab- ernacJc, It cushioned the chariots of King Solomon, it provided the robes of Queen Elizabeth, and in high places and in low places, by the fire of the pi oneer’s back log and under the flash of the chandelier—everywhere—It has clothed nakedness, It has preached the gospel, it has overcome hosts of penu ry and want with the warcry of “Stitch, stitch, stitch!” The opera tives have found a livelihood by it, and through it the mansions of the em ployer are constructed. The Needle’* Triamyhn. Amid the greatest triumphs in all ages and lands I set down the con quests ot the needle. 1 admit its crimes; 1 admit Its cruelties. It has had more martyrs than the fire; It has punctured the eye; It has pierced the side; It has struck weakness Into the lungs; It has sent madness Into the brain; it lias filled the potter’s field; It has pitched whole armies of the suffer ing Into crime and wretchedness and woe. But now that I am talking of Dorcas and her ministries to the poor I shall speak only of the charities of the needle. This woman was a repre sentative of all those who make gar ments for the destitute, who knit socks for the barefooted, who prepare band ages for the lacerated, who fix up box es of clothing for missionaries, who go into the asylums of the suffering and destitute bearing that gospel which Is sight for the blind and hearing for the deaf and which makes the lame man leap like a hart and brings the dead to life, immortal health bolhdtng In their pulses. Wlmt a contrast between the prac tise! benevolence of this woman and a great deal of the charity of this dayl This woman did not sj>end her time Idly planning how the poor of tho city of Joppa were to be relieved. £9»e took her needle and relieved *tlf£m. She was not like tliose persons who sympathize with Imaginary sorrows and go out In the street and laugh at the boy who has upset his basket of cold victuals or like that charity which makes a rousing speech on the benevo lent platform and goes out to kick the Ix'ggar from the step, crying, “Hush your miserable howling!” Sufferers of the world \^uit not so much theory as practice; not so much tears ns dollars; not so gnuch kind wishes as loaves of bread; not so much smiles ns shoes; not so much “God blest yous!” as Jack ets and frocks. I will jnit one earnest Christian man, hardworking, against 5,000 mere theorists on the subject of charity. There are a ?&Mt many who have line ideas about church architec ture who never lu their lives helped to build a church. There are men who can give you the history of Buddhism and Mohammedanism who never sent a farthing for evangelization. There are women who talk beautifully about the suffering of the world who never had the courage, like Dorcas, to taka the needle and assault It. Female Benevolence^. I am glad that there Is not a page of the world's history which Is not a rec ord of female benevolence^MJod says to all lands and people, “Come, now, and hear the widow’s mite rattle down Into tho poor box.” The Princess of Conti sold nil her Jewels that she might lK*lp tlis famine stricken. Queen Blanche, the wife of Louis VIII of France, hearing that there were some persons unjustly incarcerated In the prisons, went out amid the rabble and took a stick and struck the door as • signal that they might all strike It, and down went the prison doer, and out came the prisoners. Queen Maud, the wife of Henry I, went down amid the poor and washed their sores and ad ministered to them cordials. Mrs. lilt- son, at Matagorda, appeared on the battlefield while the missiles of death were flying around and cared for the wounded. Is there a man or woman who has ever heard of the civil war lo America w!h> lias not heard of the wo men of the sanitary and Christian commissions or the fact that before the smoke had gone up from Gettys burg and South Mountain the women of the north met tlie wonjen of the soutli on the battlefield, forgetting all their animosities while they bound up the wounded and closed the eyes of the slain ? Dorcas the benefactress, I come now to speak of Dorcas the lamented. When death struck down that good woman, oh, Lk?& much sor row there was lu the town of Joppa! 1 suppose there were women there with larger fortunes, women perhaps with handsomer faces, but there was no grief at their departure like this at the death of Dorcas. There were not more turmoil and upturning In the Mediterranean sea dashing against the wharfs at that seaport than there were surglngs to and fro of grief be cause Dorcas) was dead. There are a great many who go out of life and pro unmissed. Th**re may be a wry large funeral, there may be a great many carriages and a plumed hearse, there may be high sounding culogiurm, the bell may toll at the cemetery gate, there may be 4 very tl.ie marble fthuft reared over the resting place, but the whole tiling may be a falsehood and a sham. Notltina LonL The church of God lias lost nothing; the world lias lost nothing. It is only a nuisance abated. It is only a grum bler ceasing Jo find fault. It is ouly au Idler stopped yawning- It is oyiy a dissipated fashionable parted from his wine cellar, while ou the other hand no useful Christian leaves this world without being missed. The church of God cries out, like the prophet, “Howl, Ur tree, for the cedar lias fallen!” Widowhood comes and idiowN the sqnticRts which the depart ed had made. Orphans are lilted up to look Into tlie calm face of the sleep ing benefactress. Reclaimed vagrancy comes and kisses the cold brow of her who charmed It away from sin, and all through the streets of Joppa there mnurplug-mourning because Dorcas Is dead- Whop Jost-pulup of Franco was carried out to her grave, Jhutf irero a gredt many men and women ot pomp and pride and position that went out after her. But I uni most affected by tlie story of history that ou that day there were 10.000 of the poor of France who followed her eotlin. weep ing and walling until tlie air rang again, because when they lost Joseph ine they lost their last earthly friend. Oh, who would not rather have such obsequies than all the tears that were ever poured in the lachrymals that have been exhumed from ancient cities! There may be no mass for the dead, there may lie no costly sarcopha gus, there may he no elaborate mauso leum, but iu the damp cellars of the city and through the lonely lints of the mountain glen there will be mourning, mourning, mourning, because Dorcas Is dead. “Blessed are the dead who die In the Lord. They rest from their labors, and their works do follow them.” - I speak to you of Dorcas the resur rected. The apostle came to where she was and said, "Arise, and she sat up!” In what a short compass the great writer put that—“She sat up!” Oh, what a time there have been around that town when the apostle brought her out amoug her old friends! How tlie tears of Joy must have started! What clapping of hands there must have been! What singing! What laugh ter! Sound it all through that lane! Shout It down that dark alley! Let all Joppa hear it! Dorcas is resurrected! Good Never Die*. You and I have sum the same thing many a time; not a dead body resusci tated, but tlie deceased coming up a^aiu after death bi the good accom plished. If a man labors up to 50 years of age, serving God, and then dies, we are apt to think that bis earth ly work is done. No. His Influence on earth will continue till the world ceases. Services rendered for Christ never stop. A Christian woman toils for the upbuilding of a church t)irou#h many anxieties, through many self de nials, with prayers and tears, and then she dies. It Is 15 years since she went away. Now the Spirit of God de scends upou that church; hundreds of souls stand up and confess the faith of Christ. Has that Christian woman who went away 15 years ago nothing to do with these things? I see the flowering out of her noble heart I hear the echo of her footsteps in all the songs over sins forgiven, lu all the prosperity of the church. The good that seemed to be burled lias come up again. Dorcas is ressurected! After awhile all these womanly friends of Christ will put down their needle forever. After making gar ments for others some one will make a garment fur them; the last robe we ever wear—the robe for the grave. You will have heard the last cry of pain. You will have witnessed the last orphanage. You will have come in worn out from your last round of mercy. 1 do uot know where you will sleep nor what your epitaph will be, but there will be a lamp burning at that tomb -and an angel of God guard ing it, and through all the long night no rude foot will disturb the dust. Sleep ou, sleep on! Soft bed, pleasant shadows, undisturbed repose! Sleep on! Asleep in Jesus! Blessed sleep From which non* ever wake to weepl lie ward Ha* Cause. Then one day thare will be a sky rending and 4 whirl of wheels and the flush of a pageant, armies marching, chains chalking, banners waving, thun ders booming, and that Christian wo man will arise from tlie dust, and she will be suddenly surrounded - surround ed by the wanderers of the street whom she reclaimed, surrounded by the wounded souls to whom she had administered! Daughter of God, so strangely surrounded, what means this? It means that reward has come; that the victory is won; that the crown is ready; that the banquet is spread. Shout It through all the crumbling earth! Sing it through all the flying heavens! Dorcas is resurrected! In 1S55, when some of the soldiers came back from the Crimean war to London, the queen of England distrib uted among them beautiful medals, called Crimean medals. Galleries were erected for the two houses of parlia ment and the royal family to sR in. There was a great audience to witness the distribution of the medals. A colo nel who had lost both feet In the bat tle of Iiik'.rmanu was pulled In on a wheel chair; others came lu limping on their crutches. Then the queen of England arose before them in the name of her government and uttered words of commendation to the officers and men and distributed those meduL, Inscribed with the four great battle fields— Alma, Balaklava. lukermaim Bud Sevastopol. As the queen gave these to the wounded men and the wounded officers the bauds of musk! struck m> tlie national air, and the peo ple, with streaming eyes, Joined iu the song: God Rave our crarloua queen! Lonx live our noble queen! God save tlie queclf! And then they shouted “Huzza! Huz- *a!” Oil, it was a proud day for those returned warriors! But a brighter, bet ter and gladder day will come when Christ shall gather those who have tolled In his service- good soldiers of Jesus Christ. He shall rise before them, and lu the presence of all tiie glorified of heaven he will nay, "Well done, good and faithful servant!” And then ho will distribute the medals of eternal victory, not Inscribed with works of righteousness which we have done, but with those foiy great battle fields, dear to earth and dear to heav en—Bethlehem, Nazareth, Gcthscmuue and Calvary!
