xi, ltd, ‘'Through :i window in u haHkot
was I let down by the wall."
Sermons on Taul in jail, rani on
Mars hill, Paul in the shipwreck, Paul
before tho sanhedrin, Paul before Fe
lix, are plentiful, but In my text we
have Paul in a basket.
Damascus is a city of white and
glistening architecture, sometimes call
ed ‘•the eye of the east,” sometimes
called “a pearl surrounded by emer
alds," at one time distinguished for
swords of the best material called Da
mascus blades and upholstery of rich
est fabric called damask. A horseman
>f tho name of Saul riding toward this
city had been thrown from the saddle.
The horse had dropped under a Hash
from the sky which at the same time
was so bright It blinded the rider for
many days and, I think, so perma
nently injured his eyesight that this
defect of vision became the thorn in
the llosh he afterward speaks of. lie
started for Damascus to butcher Chris
tians, but after that hard fall from his
hoi so lie was a changed man and
preached Christ in Damascus till the
city was shaken to Its foundation.
The mayor gives authority for ids ar
rest, jfnd the popular cry Is, “Kill him,
kill him!” The city Is surrounded by a
high wall, and the gates are watched
by the police lest the Cilician preacher
escape. Many of the houses are built
on the wall, and their balconies pro
jected clear over and hovered above
the gardens outside. It was customary
to lower baskets out of these balconies
and pull up fruits and flowers from the
gardens. To this day visitors at the
monastery of Mount Sinai are lifted
and let down in baskets. Detectives
prowled around from house to house
looking for Paul, but his friends hid
him now in one place, now in another.
He is no coward, as 50 incidents in
ids life demonstrate, but he feels his
work is not done yet, and so he evades
assassination. "Is that preacher here?”
the foaming mob shout at one house
door. "Is that fanatic here?” the police
shout at another house door. Some
times on the street incognito he passes
through a elowd of clinched lists, ami
sometimes he secretes himself on the
liouse top. At last the infuriate popu
lace get on sure track of him. They
have positive evidence that he is in the
house of one of the Christians, the bal
cony of w hose home reaches over the
wall. "Here he is! Here he is!” The
vociferation and blasphemy and howl
ing of the pursuers are at the front
door. They break in. "Fetch out that
gospelizer and let us hang his head on
the city gate. Where Is lie?” The
emergency was terrible. Providentially
there was a good stout basket in the
house. Paul's friends fasten a rope to
the basket. Paul steps into it. The bas
ket is lifted to the edge of the balcony
on the wall, and then while Paul holds
the‘rope with both hands his friends
lower away carefully and cautiously,
slowly hut surely, farther down and
•farther down, until the basket strikes
the earth and the apostle steps out and
afoot ami alone starts on that famous
missionary tour the story of which has
astonished earth and heaven. Appropri
ate entry In Paul's diary of travels:
“Through a window in a basket was 1
let down by the wall.”
HnnuInK l>> u Slender Hope.
I observe lirst on what a slender ten
ure great results hang. The ropemak-
cr who twisted that cord fastened to
Hint lowering basket never knew how
much would depend upon the strength
of it. How if it had been broken and
tho apostle’s life had been dashed outl
■What would have become of the Chris
tian church? All that magnificent mis
sionary work In Pamphylla, Cappado
cia, Galatia, Macedonia, would never
have been aecomplisned. All ids writ
ings that make up so indispensable
and enchanting a part of the New Tes
tament would never have been written.
The story of resurrect ion would never
have been so gloriously told as he told
it. That example of heroic and trium
phant endurance at Philippi, In the
Mediterranean Euroclydon, under flag
ellation and at bis beheading would
not have kindled the courage of 10,000
martyrdoms. Hut that rope holding
that basket, how much depended on it!
Ho again and again groat results have
hung on slender circumstances,
Did ever ship of many thousand tons
crossing the sea have such an impor
tant passenger as had once a boat of
leaves from taffruil to stern only three
or four feet, the vessel made water
proof by a coat of bitumen and floating
on the Nile with the Infant lawgiver of
the Jews on hoard? What If some croc
odile should crunch It? What if some
of the cattle wading In for a drink
should sink it? Vessels of war some
times carry 40 guns looking through
jJje portholes, ready to open battle.
Hut the tiny craft on the Nile seems to
be armed with ali the guns of thunder
that bombarded Sinai at the lawgiving.
Op how fragile a craft sailed how
;nucli of historical importance!

missionary and no Christian Influence
had landed there. Why this oasis of
light amid a desert of heathendom?
Sixty years before a ship bad met dlx
aster, and one of the sailors, unable to
save anything else, went to Ids trunk
and took out a Hlble which ids mother
had placed there and swam ashore, the
Hible held in Ids teeth. The hook was
rend on all sides until the rough and
vicious population were evangelized,
and a church was started, and an en
lightened commonwealth established,
and the world’s history hzs c.o more
brilliant page than (hat which tells of
the transformation of a nation by one
book. It did not seem of much impor
tance whether the sailor continued to
hold the book in Ids teeth or let it fall
in the breakers, but upon what small
circumstance depended what mighty
results!
Practical Inference; There are no in
significances iu life. The minutest
thing is part of a magnitude. Infinity
Is made up of infinitesimals; great
things an aggregation of small things.
Hethlchcm manger pulling on a star in
the eastern sky. One book in a drench
ed sailor’s mouth the evangelization of
a multitude. One boat of papyrus on
the Nile freighted with events for all
ages. The fate of Christendom in a
basket let down from « window on the
wall. What you do, do well. If you
make a rope, make it strong and true,
for you know not how much may de
pend on your workmanship. If you
fashion a boat, let it be waterproof, for
you know not who may sail in it. If
you put a Hlble in the trunk of your
boy as he goes from home, let it be re
membered in your prayers, for It may
have a mission as farreaching as the
hook which the sailor carried in his
teeth to the Pitcairn beach. The plain
est man's life is an island between two
eternities -eternity past ripplingagainst
his shoulders, eternity to come touch
ing ids brow. The casual, the acciden
tal, that which merely happened so, are
parts of a great plan, and the rope that
lets the fugitive apostle from the Da
mascus wall Is the cable that holds to
Its mooring the ship of the church in
the storm of the centuries.
Again, notice unrecognized and unre
corded service. Who spun that rope?
Who tied it to the basket? Who stead
ied the illustrious preacher as he step
ped into it? Who relaxed not a muscle
of the arm or dismissed an anxious
look from his face until the basket
touched the ground and discharged its
magnificent cargo? Not one of their
names has come to us, hut there was
no work done that day in Damascus or
In all earth compared with the impor
tance of their work. What if they bad
in their agitation tied a knot that could
slip? What if the sound of the mob at
the door had led them to say, “Paul
must take care of himself, and we will
take care of ourselves?” No, no! They
held the rope and iu doing so did more
for the Christian church than any thou
sand of us will ever accomplish. Hut
God knows and lias made record of
their undertaking. And they know.
(’iiuN4‘ For Kin 11 n i Ion.
How exultant they must have felt
when they read ids letters to the Ho
mans, to the Corinthians, to the Gala
tians, to the Ephesians, to the Philip-
plans, to the Crtlossians, to the Thessa-
lonians, and when they heard how he
walked out of prison, with the earth
quake unlocking the door for him, and
took command of the Alexandrian corn
ship when the sailors were nearly
scared to death and preached a sermon
that nearly shook Felix off Ids judg
ment seat! I hear the men and women
who helped him down through the
window and over the wall talking in
private over the matter and saying:
"How glad I am that we effected that
rescue! In coming times others may
get the glory of Paul’s work, but no
one shall rob us of the satisfaction of
knowing that we held the rope.”
Once for .'!(! hours we expected every
moment to go to the bottom of the
ocean. The waves struck through the
skylights and rushed down Into the
hold of the sh^> and hissed against the
boilers. It was an awful time, but by
the blessing of God and the faithful
ness of the men in charge we came out
of the cyclone, and we arrived at home.
Each one before leaving the ship
thanked Captain Andrews. I do not
think there was a man or woman that
went off that ship without thanking
Captain Andrews, and when years aft
er I heard of Ids death I was impelled
to write a letter of condolence to his
family In Liverpool. Everybody recog
nized tlie goodness, the courage, the
kindness, of Captain Andrews, but it
occurs to me now that we never thank
ed the engineer. He stood away down
in the darkness amid the hissing fur
naces, doing his whole duty. Nobody
thanked the engineer, but God recog
nized his heroism and his continuance
and his fidelity, and there will be just
As high reward for the engineer, who
worked out of sight, us for the captain,
who stood on the bridge of the ship in
the midst of tlie howling tempest.
There are said to he about 150,000
ministers qf religion In this country.
About 80,000, I warrant, came from
early homes which had to struggle for
the necessaries of life. The sons of rich
bankers and merchants generally be
come bankers and merchants. The
most of those who become ministers
are the sous of those who had terrific
struggle to get their everyday bread.
The collegiate and theological educa
tion of that son took every luxury from
th»' parental table for eight yeurs^ The

close of a Sabbath ofl^lhihl.v blessing

tlie son lighting the way niTff-ittfking
them if lie can do anything to nWhi^
them more comfortable, saying If they
want anything in (lie night Just to
knock tm the wall. And then, all alone,
father and mother talk over the gra
cious Influences of the day and say:
"Well, It was worth all we went
through to educate that boy. It was a
haul pull, but we held on till the work
was done. The world may not know it;
but, mother, we held the rope, didn't
we?” And the voice, tremulous with
joyful emotion, responds: "Yes, father,
we held the rope. I feel my work is
done. Now, Lord, lettest thou thy serv
ant depart in*peace, for mine eyes have
seen thy salvation.” "Pshaw!” says
the father. “I never felt so much like
living in my life as now. 1 want to see
what that fellow is going on to do. he
has begun so well.”
Something occurs to me quite person
al. I was the youngest of a large fami
ly of children. My parents were nei
ther rich nor poor. Pour of the sons
wanted a collegiate education, and four
obtained it, but not without great home
struggle. We never heard the old peo
ple say once that they were denying
themselves to effect this, but I remcm
ber now that my parents always looked
tired. I don’t think they ever got rested
until they lay down In the Somerville
cemetery. Mother would sit down iu
the evening and say, "Well. 1 don’t
know what makes me feel so tired!”
Father would fall immediately to sleep
seated by the evening stand, overcome
with the day’s fatigues. About .‘{.‘j
years iigo the one and about .'17 years
ago the other put down the burdens ol
this life, but they still hold the rope.
O men and women, you brag some
times how you have fought your way
In the world, but I think there have
been helpful Influences that you have
never fully acknowledged. Has there
not been some influence iu your early
or present borne that the world cannot
see? Does there not reach you from
among the New England hills, or from
western prairie, or from southern plan
tation, or from English or Scottish or
Irish home n cord of influence that luc?
kept you right when you would have
gone astray and which after you had
made a crooked track recalled you?
The rope may he as long ns .'lO years ot
500 miles long or 3,000 miles long, but
hands that went out of mortal sight
long ago still hold the rope. You want
a very swift horse, and you need Ui
rowel him with sharpest spurs and tn
let the reins He loose upon the neck and
to give a shout to the racer if you arc
going to ride out of reach of your moth
er’s prayers. Why, a ship crossing tlie
Atlantic In six days can’t sail away
from that. A sailor finds them on the
lookout as he takes Ids place and finds
them on the mast as he climbs the rat
lines to disentangle a rope in the tem
pest and finds them swinging on tlie
hammock when he turns in. Why not
be frank and acknowledge it? The
most of us would long ago have been
dashed to pieces had not gracious and
loving hands steadily and lovingly and
mightily held the rope.
An l'nree*ril(-il Service.
Hut there must come a time when .we
shall find out who these Damascenes
were who lowered Haul in* the basket
and greet them and all those who have
rendered to God and the world unrec
ognized and unrecorded services. That
is going to be one of the glad excite
ments of heaven, the hunting up and
picking out of those who did great
good on earth and got no credit for it.
Here the church lias been going ou HI
centuries, ami yet the world has not
recognized the services of tlie people
In the Damascus balcony. ChnrR's G.
Finney said to a dying Christian, "Give
my love to St. 1’aul when you meet
him." When you and 1 meet him, as
we will, 1 shall ask him to Introduce
me to those who got him out of the
Damascene peril.
We go Into long sermons to prove
that we will be aide to recognize people
In heaven when there Is one reason we
full to present, and that is better than
all—God will Introduce us. We shall
have them all pointed out. You would
not he guilty of the impoliteness of
having friends in your parlor not intro
duced, and celestial politeness will de
mand that we be made acquainted
with all the heavenly household. What
rehearsal of old times and recital of
stirring reminiscences! If others fail
to give Introduction, God will take us
through, and before our first 24 hours
In heaven—If It were calculated by
earthly timepieces—have passed we
shall meet and talk with more heaven
ly celebrities than iu our entire mortal
state we met with earthly celebrities.
Many who made great noise of useful
ness will sit on the last seat by the
front door of the heavenly temple,
'while right up within arm's reach of
the heavenly throne will he many who,
though they could not preach them
selves or do great exploits for God,
nevertheless held tho rope.
Come, let us go right up and accost
those on the circle of heavenly thrones.
Surely they must have killed In battle
a million men. Surely they must have
been burled with all the cathedrals
sounding a dirge and all the towers of
all the cities tolling the national grief.
Who art thou, mighty one of heaven?

And I sab?*. "Is that all?” And he an

voice that sounded as though It might
once have been hoarse from ntrfpy ex
posures and triumphant as though J<
might have belonged to one of the mar
tyrs, and it said, “Not many mighty, not
many noble, are called, hut God hath
chosen the weak things of the world to

and base tilings of the world am)
things which are despised hath God
chosen; yea, and things which are nof

one who had said, “Through a window

Henceforth think of nothing as in
significant. A little thing may dccldo
your all. A C'unarder put out from Eng
land for New York. It was well equip
ped, but in putting up a stove in the
pilot box a nail was driven too near the
compass. You know bow that nail
would affect the compass. The ship’s
officers, deceived by that distracted
compass, put the ship 200 miles off lu-t
right course and suddenly the man on
the lookout cried, "Land ho!” and the
ship was halted within a few yards ol
her demolition on Nantucket shoals. A
sixpenny nail came near wrecking a
Gummier. Small ropes hold mighty
destinies.
A minister seated in Boston at his ta
ble, lacking a word, puts bis hand be
hind his head and tilts back his chair
to think, and the ceiling falls and
crushes the table and would have
crushed him. A minister In Jamaica at

Robertson, the celebrated English cler
gyman, said that he entered the minis

tlie Spanish inquisition would have

blew the other way, and that dropped
the accursed institution, with 75 tons

or flung the splintered logs on tlie

Nothing unimportant in your life ot

blood in the veins is purs a beauteous
flush is on the cheek. But when the
blood is impure, moroseness, bad
temper, and a sallow complexion tell
the tale of sickness, all too plainly.
And wromen to-day know there is no
beauty without health. Wine of
Cardui crowns women with bfauty
and attractiveness by making strong
and healthy those organs which make
her a woman. Try Wine of Cardui,
and in a month your friends will
hardly know you.
