We know of
nothing better
than coughing
to tear the lin
ing of your
throat and
ilungs. It is
(better than wet
feet to cause
bronchitis and
pneumonia.
Only keep it
up and you
will succeed in
reducing your
weight, losing
your appetite,
bringing on a
slow fever, and
making every
thing exactly
right for the
germs of consumption.
Better kill your cough
before it kills you.
kills coughs of every
kind. A 25 cent bottle
is just right for an ordi
nary cough; for the
harder coughs of bron
chitis you will need a 50
cent bottle; and for the
coughs of consumption
the one dollar size is
most economical.
“ My cough reduced me to a mere
pkelcton. I tried many remedies,
but they all failed. After using the
Cherry Pectoral 1 immediately be
gan to improve, and three bottles
restored me to health. I believe I
owe my life to it."

CHRIST’S CHARACTER
DR. TALMAGE URGES CHRISTIANS TO
EMULATE IT.
Ilia Earthly Life Replete With Beau
tiful Exampleai—Practice Self Sac
rifice and Humility and Help Dear
Durdens of Others.
Washington, Sept. 23.—In this ser
mon, which Dr. Tulmnge semis from
Paris, he analyzes the character of the
Saviour a*ml urges all Christians to ex
ercise the qualities which were con
spicuous in Christ’s earthly life. The
text Is Itouians viii, 9, ‘‘Now, if any
man has net the spirit of Christ he is
none of his.”
There is nothing more desirable than
a pleasant disposition. Without it we
cannot be happy ourselves or make
others happy. When we have lost our
temper or become impatient under
some light cross, wo suddenly awaken
to new appreciation of proper equi
poise of nature. We wish we had been
: born with self balance, we envy those
; people who bear themselves through j
| life without any perturbation, and we
j flatter ourselves that, however little
j self control we may now have, the time
will come, under the process of years,
when we will be mellowed and soften
ed and the wrong things which are in
us now will then be all right, forgetful
of the fact that an evil habit in our na
ture will grow into larger proportions
and that an iniquity not corrected will
become the grandfather of a whole gen
eral ion of iniquities. So that people
without the grace of Cod in the strug
gle and amid the annoyances and ex
asperations of life are apt to become
worse Instead of better.
Now, the trouble is that we have a
theory abroad in the world that a
man’s disposition cannot bo changed.
A man says, ‘T am irascible in temper,
and I can’t help it.” Another man says.
‘*1 am revengeful naturally, and 1
can't help it.” A man says, “I am im
pulsive, and I can't help it.” And he
tells the truth. No man can correct
his disposition. 1 never knew a man
by force of resolution to change his
temperament, but by Ids grace God
can take away that which is wrong
and put in that which is right, and I
know and you know people who, since
their conversion, are just the opposite
of what they used to be. In other
words, we may, by the spirit of God,
have the disposition of Jesus Christ
implanted in our disposition, and we
must have it done or we will never see
heaven. “If any man have not the dis-
position of Jesus Christ, he is none of
his.”
Cliriat'ii Gentle Spirit.
In the first place, the spirit of Christ
was a spirit of gentleness. Sometimes
he made wrathful utterance against
rharisees and hypocrites, but the most
of his words were kind and gentle and
loving and inoffensive and attractive.
When we consider the fact that he
was omnipotent and could have torn
to pieces his assailants, the wonder is
greater. We often bear the persecu
tion and abuse of the world because
we cannot help it. Christ endured it
when he could have helped it. Little
children who always shy off at a rough
man rushed into his presence and clam
bered on him until the people begged
the mothers to take them away. In
valids so sore with wounds that they
could not bear to have any one come
near them begged Christ just to put
his hand upon the wound and soothe it.
The mother with the sickest child
was willing to put the little one in
Christ’s arms. Self righteous people
rushed into his presence with a woman
of debased character and said. “Now,
annihilate her, blast her, kill her." Je
sus looked at her and saw she was
sorry and repentant, and he looked at
them ami he saw they were proud and
arrogant and malignant, and he said,
"Let him that Is without sin cast the
first stone at her.” A blind man sat
by the wayside making a great ado
about his lack of vision. They told
him to hush up and not bother the
Master. Christ stooped to him and
said. “What wilt thou that 1 do unto
thee'.'” Gentleness of voice, gentleness
of manner, gentleness of life.
We ail admire it whether we have
any of it or not. Just ns the rough
mountain bluff and the seanfil crag
love to look down into the calm lake at
their feet and ns the stormiest winter
loves to merge into the sunshiny spring,
so the most precipitate and impulsive
and irascible nature loves to think of
the gentleness of Christ. How little
we have of it! How little patience in
treating with enemies! We have so
little of the gentleness of Christ we are
not fit for Christian work half the time.
We do not know how to comfort the
bereft or to encourage the (PAhearteued
or to take care of the poor. Even our
voice of sympathy is on the wrong
pitch.
My sister had her arm put out of
Joint, and we were In the country, ami
the neighbors came in, and they were
all sympathetic, and they laid hold of
tiie arm and pulled and pulled might
ily until the anguish was intolerable,
but the arm did not go to its place.
Then the old country doctor was sent
for, and he came In, ami with one
touch It was ail right. He knew Just
where to put his finger and just how tq
touch the bone. We go out to our
Christian work with too rough a hand
and too unsympathetic a manner, ami
.we fail In our work, while some Chris
tian, in the gentleness of Christ, comes
along, puts his hand of sympathy on
the sore spot, and the torn ligaments
are healed, and the disturbed bones
• re rejoined. Oh, for this gentleness
of Christ!
Act Like Cbriittlar<«.
The dew of one summer night will
accomplish more good than &U Carib
bean whirlwinds. How important it is
that in going forth to serve Christ; we
have something of his gentleness! !s
that the way we bear ourselves when
tiro n‘:sn^lltcd , The rule Is an eye
for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, retort
for retort, sarcasm for sarcasm. Qiv«
him as much as he sends! After awhik
you look up into the face of Christ, am)
you see his gentleness, find you say,
“Well, now, I must do differently.”
Then your proud heart says: “Now yon
have your enemy In a corner. You will
never get him in a corner again. Chas
tise him and then let him go.” So we
postpone the gentleness of Christ.
Did you ever know any difilculty to
lie honied by neerbity or liypereriti-
C'iHtn? About a:, years ago the Presby
terian church was split into the new
school an-! fiie old school, x;.,. eh:!< i !;i
gut wider a ml wider. Tie jno.-t out-
.ttgebug’penwnalitlea wertTlmluIgenMn.
Good men on one side anathematized
good men on the other side. Wider
and wider the chasm got until after
awhile some good people tried another
tack, and they began to explain away
the difficulties and soon all the differ
ences were healed, and at Pittsburg
they shook hands ami are one now to
be one forever.
You say to a man with whom you
had a falling out, “I despise you.” Ha
says, “I can't boar the sight of you.”
Y’ou say to him, “I never want you to
come to my house again.” He says,
“If you come to my house again. I’ll
kick you out.” You say, “I’ll put you
down.” “Oh, no,” he says, “I’ll put
you down.” But some day the spirit
of Christ comes into you and ( you go
over and say: “My brother, give me
your hand; time is short and eternity
is near, and we can’t afford to quarrel.
Now let bygones be bygones and let us
act like Christ inns." It is all settled.
How? By the gentleness of Christ.
Practice Self Sacrifice.
Did you ever know a drunkard re
claimed by mimicry of his staggering
steps, his thick tongue or his hiccough?
No. Y’ou only madden his brain. But
you go to him and let him know you
appreciate what an awful struggle he
has with the evil habit and you let him
know that you have been acquainted
with people who were down in the
same depths who, by the grace of God,
have been rescued. lie hears your
voice, he responds to that sympathy,
and he is saved. Y’ou cannot scold the
world into anything better. Y'ou may
attract it into something better. The
stormiest wind comes out from its hid
ing place and says, “I will arouse this
sea,” and it blows upon the sea. Half
of the sea is aroused or a fourth of the
sea is aroused, yet not the entire At
lantic. But after awhile the moon
comes out, calm and placid. It shines
upon the sea, and the ocean begins to
lift. It embraces all the highlands,
the beach is all covered. The heart
throb of one world boating against the
heart throb of another world. The
storm could not rouse the whole At
lantic; the moon lifted It. “And I,”
said Christ, “if 1 lie lifted up will draw
all men unto me.”
Christ’s disposition was also one of
self sacrifice. No young man ever
started out with so bright a prospect
as Christ started out with if he had
been willing to follow a worldly ambi
tion. In the time that he gave to the
sick he might have gathered the vast
est fortune of his time. With his pow
er to popularize himself and magnetize
the people he could have gained any of
ficial position. No orator ever won
such plaudits as he might have won
from sanhedrin and synagogue and
vast audiences by the seaside; no phy
sician ever got such a reputation for
healing power as lie might have ob
tained if he had performed his wonder
ful cures before the Itoman aristocra
cy. I say these things to let you know
what I'aul meant when bo said, “He
pleased not himself,” ami to show
something of the wonders of his self
sacrifice. All human power together
could not have tin-own Christ into the
manger if he had not chosen tq go
there; all Satanic strength could not
have lifted Christ upon the cross if he
had not elected himself to the torture.
To save our race from sin and death
and hell he faced all the sorrows of
this world and the sorrows of eternity.
How much of that self sacrifice have
we?
Humility of JenuM,
What is self sacrifice? It Is my walk
ing a long journey to save you from fa
tigue; it is my lifting a great number
of pounds to save you from the awful
strain; it is a subtraction from my com
fort and prospeVity so that there may
be an addition to your comfort and
prosperity. How much of that have
we? Might not I rather say, “How lit
tle have we!” Two children, brother
and sister, were passing down the road.
They were both very destitute. The
lad had hardly any garments at all.
His sister had a coat that she had out
grown. It was a very cold day. Bhe
said. “Johnnie, come under this coat.”
“Oh.” lie said, “no; the coat isn’t large
enough.” “Oh.” she said, “it will
stretch.” He comes under the coat,
but the coat would not stretch. So she
took off the coat and put it on him.
Self sacrifice, pure and simple. Christ
taking off his robe to clothe our naked
ness. Self sacrifice! I have not any of
it. nor have you, compared with that.
The sacrifice of the yon of God.
Christ walked to Emmaus; Christ
walked from Capernaum to Bethany;
Christ walked from Jerusalem to Gol
gotha. How far have you and I walk
ed for Christ? Ills head ached; his
heart ached; his back ached. How
much have we ached for Christ?
The disposition of Jesus was also a
disposition of humility. The Lord of
earth and heaven in the garb of a rus
tic. He who poured all the waters of
the earth out of his right baud—the
Amazon, and the Euphrates, and the
Oregon, and the Ohio, and the Missis
sippi—bonding over a well to ask a Sa
maritan woman for a drink. IJe who
spread the canopy of the heavens and
set the earth for a footstool admitting
that he had not where to lay his head.
He whose chariot the clouds arc walk
ing with sore feet; hushing the tempest
on Uemiesarct and wiping th e spray of
the storm from his beard, then sitting
down In the cabin beside his disciples
as though he had done no more thaq
wipe the sweat from his brow in Jo
seph's carpenter shop; taking the foot
of death off the heart of Lazarus and
breaking the chain of the grave against
the marble of the tomb and then walk
ing out with Mary and Martha without
any more pretension than a plain citi
zen going out in the suburban village
to spend the evening; Jostled as though
he were a nobody; pursued as though
he were an outlaw; nieknamed; seated
with publicans and with slnners-lvlng
of heaven and earth trailing his robes
in the dust!
Spirit of Prayer.
How much of that humility have tve?
If we get a few more dollars than oth
er people or gain a little higher posi
tion, oh, how we strut! We go ground
wanting everybody to know Vjielr place
ami say, "Is not this great Babylon
that 1 have built for the honor of my
kingdom and by the might of my
strength?” Who has anything of the
humility of Christ?
The disposition of Christ was also
Hie spirit of prayer. I’rqyer on the
mountains, prayer on the sea, prayi-r
among the sick prayer everywhere.
I’rayer for little children, “Bather, I
thunk thee that thou hast hidden these
things from the wise aud prudent and
revealed them unto babes." Prayer for
bis friends, “Father, 1 will that they
be with rue where I am.” Prayer for
his enemies, “Father, forgive them;
they know not what they do.” Prayer
for all nations, "Thy kingdom come."
How little of that spirit you and I
have! How soon our knees get tired!
Where Is the vial full of odors which
are the prayers of all the saints? Which
of us can keep our mind ten minutes
on a prayer without wandering? Not
you: not I. Oli, that we might have
the spirit of prayer which was the
spirit of Christ! We want more pray
er in the family, more prayer in the
church, more prayer in the legislative
hall, more prayer among the sick, more
prayer among the aged, more prayer
among the young. The great advance
ment of the church is to be In that di
rection yet.
While-tho council of Nuremberg was
signing the edict that gave the church
its freedom Martin Luther was away
off in a room by himself praying for
that accomplishment. /Though there
was no line of communication between
the place where the council was as
sembled and the room where Martin
Luther was praying. Martin Luther
suddenly rose from his knees and said:
“It is accomplished! The church is
free! Victory, victory!” Oh, for this
direct line of communication with the
throne of God, so that it may be said
of us, as it was said of Luther, “lie
got what he asked for!” We want, like
Daniel, to pray with our face toward
the Holy City; we want, like Stephen,
to pray gazing into heaven; we want,
like the publican, to pray smiting on
the heart of conviction; we want, like
Christ, to pray—the Christ who emp
tied his heart of all its lifeblood and
then filled it with the sorrows, the
woes, the agonies of all nations.
Cold mountains and tiie midnight air
Witnessed the fervor of Ids prayer.
Shoulder Your Burden.
The spirit of Christ, I remark lastly,
was a spirit of hard work. Not one
lazy moment In all his life. Whether
he was talking to the fishermen on the
beach, or preaching to the sailors on
the dock, or administering to the rus
tics amid the mountains, or spending
an evening in Bethany, always busy
for others. With hands, heart, head,
busy for others—hewing in the Naza
reth carpenter shop, teaching the lame
how to walk without crutches, curing
the child’s fits, providing rations for the
hungry host. Busy, busy, busy! The
hardy men who pulled the net out of
the sea filled with floundering treas
ures, the shepherds who hunted up
grassy plots for their flocks to nibble
at, the shipwrights pounding away in
the dockyards, the winemakers of En-
gedi dipping the juices from the vat
and pouring them Info the goatskins,
were not more busy than Christ. Busy,
busy for others! From the moment he
went out of the caravansary of Bethle
hem to the moment when the cross
plunged into tho socket on the bloody
mount busy for others. Does that re
mind you of yourself? It does not re
mind mo of myself. If we lift a bur
den, it must he light; if we do work, it
must he popular; if we sit in the pew,
it must he soft; If we move In a sphere
of usefulness, it must be brilliant; if
we have to take hold of a load, give us
the light end of the log. In this way
to heaven fan us, rock us, sing us to
sleep. Lift us up toward heaven on
the tips of your fingers under a silken
sunshade. Stand out of the way, all
you martyrs who breasted the lire;
stand out of the way and let this col
ony of tender-footc‘1 modern Christians
come up and get their crowns!
What has your Lord done to you. O
Christian, that you should betray him?
Who gave you so much riches that you
can afford to despise tin* awards of the
faithful? At this moment, when all
the armies of heaven and earth aud
hell are plunging into the conflict, how
can you desert the standard? Oh, back
slidden Christian, is it not time f r you
to start anew for God and anew for
heaven ?
Now, I have shown you that the dis
position of Christ was a spirit of gen
tleness, a spirit of self sacrifice, a spir
it of humility, a spirit of prayer, a spir
it of hard work—live points. Will you
remember them? Are you ready now
for the tremendous announcement of
the text, “If any man has not the spirit
of Christ, he is none of his?” Are you
ready for that statement? Can we
stniid up and say, “Yes; we have tho
spirit of Christ?” Not one of us can
make that answer to the full question,
yet I am to declare to you there is uo
discouragement In this subject for
Christian people. You have the seeds
of this character pointed In your soul.
“It doth not yet appear what we shall
be.”
You might as well blame an acorn for
not being an oak of a thousand years im
to blame yourself because you are not
equal to Christ. You have the implan
tation viltbin you which will enlarge
and develop Info the grandest Chris
tian character, and there is no discour
agement ih this text for you (o try t»*
love and serve the Lord. Aim high.
jHieathc not your sword until you have
gained the last victory. Climb higher
and higher until you reach the celestial
hills. Crowns bright and radiant for
all the victors, but death fo every de
serter.

What They Say About....
Harris Lithia Water:
Mr. J. T. Harris:
Dear Sir—1 have found the um; of the water
from your Llthla Spring in South Carolina so
efficacious In tho case of a young lady pa
tient of mine, who has suffered for years with
Dialuites, with all its different attendants,
that I want to add my tcstlmonal to the
many you already have. The patient I refer
to has used the water freely at home for
scarcely a month now, witli more liencflclul
results than from months spent at different
llthla springs In different parts of the Fulled
States, besides long continued use of the
same waters at home. Other of my pat tents
and friends are now using the same with best
results. I cordially recommend it to ail suff
ering from similar diseases.
Very respectfully yours,
Thomas S. I'own.L M 1>.

"The Harris Llthla Wat* r is. In my opinion,
unexcelled for those allnr nts r< auli'in ' ihe
salts It contain*.
Ashevim.k, N\ C., April 24. 18113.-An ex

ter prompts me to the statement that J re
gard it as one of the liesi. If not the best.
LiUuu \\ a ter known to the profession. In the
condition of i’hosphattc Urine, its action is
marvelous. It* use In he Rheumatic and
Gouty diseases afford me more comfort than
