How About
Your Heart
Feel your pulse a few minutes.
Is it regular? Are you short of
breath, after slight exertion
as going up stairs, sweeping,
walking, et-;? Do you have
pain in left breast, side or
between shoulder blades, chok
ing sensations, fainting or
smothering spells, inability to
lie on left side? If you have
any of these symptoms you
certainly have a weak heart,
and should immediately take
Miles' Heart Cure
Mr. F. II. Oaks of Jamestown, N. Y.,
whose genial face appears above, says;
“Excessive use of tobacco seriously
affected my heart. I suffered severe
pains about the heart, and in the left
shoulder and side; while the palpitation
would awaken me from my sleep. I
began taking Dr. Miles’ lleart Cure
and soon found permanent relief.”

WAsirinoton. Oct. n.-tn this dis
'•otirsu hr. Talinage describes some of
the scenes to be witnessed late at uighi
in the great cities and warns the u::
wary of many perils; text, Isaiah x.\i
11. “Watchman, what of the night?”
When night came down on Babylon.
Nineveh and Jerusalem, they needtsl
careful watching, otherwise the incen
diary’s torch might have been thrust
into the very heart of the metropolitan
splendor, or enemies, marching from
the hills, might have forced the gates.
All night long, on top of the wall and
in front of the gates, might be heard
the measured step of the watchman on
his solitary beat; silence hung in air
save as some passerby raised the ques
tion, “Watchman, wha* of the night?’’
it is to me a deeply suggestive and
solemn thing to see a man standing
guard by night It thrilled through me
as at the gate of an arsenal ki Charles
ton the question once smote me. “Who
comes there?” followed by the sharp
command. “Advance and give the conn
tersign.” Every moral teacher stands
on picket or patrols the wall as watch
man. His work is to sound the alarm
and whether it bo in (1m* tirst watch
in the second watch, in the third watch
or in the fourth watch to be vigilant
until the daybreak dings Its “morning
glories” of blooming cloud across tin
trellis of the sky.
'riie ancients divided their night into
four parts—tin* lirst watch from «»to t).
the second from i) to 12. the third from
12 to 3 and the fourth from 3 to G. I
speak now of the city in the third
watch, or front 12 to 3 o’clock.
1 never weary of looking upon tin
life of the city in the first watch. That
is the hour when tin* stores are closing
The laboring men. having quitted tin
scaffolding and the shop, are on then
way home. It rejoices me to give then:
suy seat in tin* city car They have
stood and hammered away all da;.
Their feet are weary. They are ex
iiuusted with the tug of work. They
are mostly cheerful With appetites
sharpened on the swift turner’s wheel
and the carpenter’s whetstone the\
seek the evening meal. The clerks, too
have broken away from the countet
and with brain weary of the long lint
of figures and the whims of those win
go a shopping seek the face of motile
or wife and child The streets an
thronged with young men setting oui
from the great centers of bargain mak
ing. Let idlers char the street ami
give right of way to tin* besweated ar
tisans and merchants! They have earn
ed their bread and are now on tlicit
way home to get it. The lights in full
let hang over uui'ki evening repasts-
ihe parents at either end of tin* table,
the children between. Thank God
"who setteth the solitary in families!”
(OvenliiK In the City.
A f‘*w hours later and ail the places
of amusement, good and bad. are in fu!l
tide. Lovers of art. catalogue in band
stroll through the galleries and discuss
the pictures. The ballroom is resp!eu
dent with the rich apparel of those
who on either side of the white, giis
tening boards await the signal from tin
orchestra. Concert halls are lifted into
enchantment with the warble of one
songstress or swept out on a sett ot
tumultuous feeling by the blast of
brazen instruments. Drawing rooms
are tilled with all gracefulness of ap
pnrel. with all sweetness wf sound,
wilh all splendor of manner. Mirrors
are catching up and multiplying tin
scene until it seems as if in infinite
corridors there wen* garlanded troops
advancing and retreating. The outdooi
air rings with laughter and wUh th<
moving to and fro of thousands on tie-
great promenades. The dashing span
adrip with the foam of the long conn
try ride, rushes past as you halt at tie
curbstone. Mirth, revelry, beauty, fash
ion. magnificence, mingle in the grea'
metropolitan picture until the thinking
man goes home to think more serious!;
and the praying man to pray more ear
oestly A beautiful and overwhelming
thing is the city in the first and second
watches of the night.
But the clock strikes 12. and the
third watch has begun. The tlitinde:

There are honest men passing up an

’. t the city sleep.
But. my friends, be not deceived.
There will be tonight thousands who
will not sleep at :ill Go up that dark
alley, and be cautious where you tread
I lest you fall over the prostrate form of
a drunkard lying on his own doorstep
Look about you, lest you feel the gar-
roter’s hug. Look through the broken
window pane and see what you can
see. You say. “Nothing." Then listen.
What is it? "God help us!” No foot
lights. but tragedy ghastlier and might
ier than Bistori or Edwin Booth ever
enacted. No light, no tire, no bread, no
hope. Shivering in the cold, they have
had no food for twenty-four hours. You
say. “Why don’t they beg?” They do.
but they get nothing. You say. "Why
don't they deliver themselves over
to the almshouse?” Ah, you would not
ask that If you ever heard the bitter
cry of a man or a child when told he
must go to the almshouse. “Ob,” you
say. “they are vicious poor, and there
fore they do not deserve our sympa
thy!” Are they vicious? So much
more need they your pity. The Chris
tian poor, God helps them. Through
their night there twinkles the round,
rnerry star of hope, and through the
broken window they see the crystals
of heaven, but the vicious poor they
arc more to be pitied. Their last light
has gone out. You excuse yourself
from helping them by saying they are
so bad they brought this trouble on
themselves. 1 reply. Where I give ten
prayers for the innocent who are suf
fering I will give twenty for the guilty
who are suffering.
Pass («i throtigh the alley. Open the
door. “Oh.” you say. "It Is locked!”
No, It l« not locked. It has never been
locked. No burglar would be tempted
to go In there to steal anything. The
door Is never locked. Only a broken
chair stands against the door. Shove
It back. Go in. Strike a match. Now.
look. Beastliness and rags. See those
glaring eyeballs. Be careful now what
you say. Do uot utter any insult, do
not utter any suspicion. If you value
your life. What is that red mark on
the wall? It is the mark of a murder
er’s hand! Look at those two eyes ris
ing up out of the darkness and out
from the straw in the corner, coming
toward you. and as they come near you
your light goes out. Strike another
match. Ah. this is a babe, not like
those beautiful children presented In
baptism. This little one never smiled
It never will smile. A flower flung on
an awfully barren beach. O Heavenly
Shepherd, fold that little one In thy
arms! Wrap around you your shawl
or your coat tighter, for the cold wind
sweeps through.
A llapelemi Brow.
Strike another match. Ah. is It pos
sible that the scarred and bruised face
of that young woman ever was looked
into by maternal tenderness? Utter no
scorn. Utter no harsh word. No ray
of hope has dawned on that brow for
many a year No ray of hope ever will
dawn on that brow. But the light has
gone out. Do uot strike another light
It would he a mockery to kindle an
other light in such a place as that
Pass out and pass down the street.
Do you know It is in this third watch
of tbenight that crlminalsdothcirworst
work? It is the criminals' watch. At
half past 8 o’clock yon will find them
In the drinking saloon, but toward 12
o’clock they go to their garrets, they
get out their tools, then they start on
the street. Watching on either side for
the police, they go to their work of
darkness. This is a burglar, and the
false key will soon touch the store lock;
this is an incendiary, and before morn
ing there will be a light on the sky and
a cry of “Fire! Fire!” This is an as
sassin, and tomorrow morning there
will be a dead body in one of the va
cant lots. During the daytime these
villains in our cities lounge about, some
asleep and some awake, but when the
third watchof the night arrives, theireye
keen, their brain cool, their arm strong,
their foot fleet to fly or pursue, they tire
ready. Many of these poor creatures
were brought up In that way. They
were horn in a thieves’ garret. Their
childish toy was a burglar's dark lan
tern. The first thing they remember
was their mother bandaging the brow
of their father, struck by the police
club. They began by robbing boys’
pockets, and now they have conic to
dig the underground passage to the cel
lar of the bank and are preparing to
blast the gold vault. Jutt so loag as*
there are neglected children of the
street. Just long we will have these
desperadoes. Some one. wishing to
make a good Christian point and to
quote a passage of Scripture, expecting
to get a Scriptural passage in answer,
said to one of these poor lads, cast out
and wretched. “When your father and
your mother forsake you. w'vo. then,
will take you up?” And the boy said.
“The perl ice!"
The Way of Destruction.
In the third watch of the night gam
bling does its worst work. What
though the hours be slipping away and
though the wife be waiting in the cheer
less home? Stir up the fire; bring on
more drinks; put up more stakes! That
commercial bouse that only a little
while ago put out a sign of copartner
ship will this winter be wrecked on a
gambler's table. There will be many a
money till tout will spring a leak In
the third \va • h of the night pass down
the streets of these cities, and you hear
the click of the dice and the sharp,
k- en stroke of the balls on the billiaid
table At tin se places in reliant prineec
dismount, mid legislators, tired of mak
leg laws, take a respite In breaking
I
them. All classes of people are robbed
by this crime the Importer of foreign
silks and the dialer in Chatham street
pocket handkerchiefs. The clerks of
the si< e take ii hand after the shutters
are put up, ami the oillccrs of the court (
while away their time while the Jury ,
is out.
In Baden-Baden, when that city was (
the greatest of all gambling places on
earth, it was no unusual tiling the next
morning, in the woods around about
tlie city, to find the suspended bodies
of suicides. Whatever be Hie splendor
of surroundings, there is no excuse for
•his crime. The thunders of eternal
destruction roil in tin* deep rumble of [
that gamhlirg tenpin alley, and ns men 1
come out to join the long procession of
sin all the drums of death beat the
dead march of a thousand souls.
in one year in New York city there
was $7,000,000 sacrificed at the gam
ing table. Perhaps some of your
fronds have been smitten of this sin;
perhaps some of you have been smitten
by it; perhaps there may be a stranger
here from some of the hotels. Look
out for those agents of iniquity who
tarry around about the hotels and ask
you, “Would you like to see the city?"
“Yes.” “Have you ever seen that
splendid building up town?" "No.”
Then the villain will undertake to
show you what he calls the “lions” and
the "elephants.” and after a young
man. through morbid curiosity or
through badness of soul, has seen the
“lions” and the “elephants" he will be
on enchanted ground. Look out for
these men who move around the hotels
with slock hats—always sleek - hats—
and patronizing air and unaccountable
interest about your welfare and enter
tainment. You are a fool If you can
not see through It. They want your
money.
Gambling and Drnnkenneaa.
In Chestnut street. Philadelphia,
while I was living In that city, an In
cideut occurred which was familiar to
us there. In Chestnut street a young
man went into a gambling saloon, lost
all his property, then blew bis brains
out, and before the blood was washed
from the floor by the maid the com
rades were shuffling cards again. You
see. there is more mercy in the high
wayman for the belated traveler on
whose body he heaps the stones, there
Is more mercy In the frost for tin
flower that It kills, there is more mercy
in the hurricane that shivers the
steamer on the Atlantic coast than
there is mercy in the heart of a gam
bler for his victim.
In the third watch of the night also
drunkenness does its worst. The drink
ing will be respectable at 8 o’clock in
the evening, a little flushed at 'J. talk
ative and garrulous at 10. at 11 blas
phemous. at 12 the hat falls off. at 1
the man falls to the floor, asking for
more drink. Strewn through the drink
ing saloons of the city, fathers, hus
bands, sons as good as you are by na
ture, perhaps better. In the bigli circles
of society it is hushed up. A merchant
prince, if be gets noisy and uncontrol
lable, is taken by his fellow revelers,
who try to get him to bed or take him
home, where he falls- flat in the entry.
Do not wake up the children. They
have had disgrace enough. Do not let
them know it. Hush it up. But some
times it cannot be bushed up when the
rum touches the brain and the man be
comes thoroughly frenzied. Such a
one came home, having been absent
for some time, and during bis absence
bis wife died, and she lay in the next
room, prepared for tin* obsequies, and
he went in and dragged her by Hie locks
and shook tier out of her shroud and
pitched her out of the window. Oh.
when rum touches the brain you can
not hush it up!
My friends, you see all around about
you the need that something radical be
done. You do not see the worst. In
the midnight meetings in Loudon a
great multitude have been saved. We
want a few hundred Christian men mid
women to come down from the highest
circles of society to toil amid those
wandering and destitute ones and kin
dle up a light in the dark alley, even
the gladness of heaven. Do uot go
wrapped in your line furs and from
your well filled tables with the idea
that pious talk is going to stop the
gnawing of an empty stomach or to
warm stockingless feet. Take bread,
take raiment, take medicine, as well
as take prayer. There is a great deal
of common, sense in what the poor wo
man said to the city missionary when
he was telling her how she ought to
love God and serve him. “Oh." she
said, “if you Were as poor and cold as
I am and as hungry you could think of
nothing else!”
Power of • Helpful Word.
A great deal of what Is called Chris-
titiu work goes for nothing, for the sim
ple reason It is uot practical. As after
the battle of Antietam a man got out
of an ambulance with a bag of tracts,
and be went distributing the tracts,
and George Stuart, one of the best
Christian men In this country, said to
him: “What are you distributing tracts
for now? There are 3.000 men bleed
ing to death. Bind up their wounds,
aud then distribute the tracts.” We
want more common sense In Christian
work, taking the bread of this life In
one band and the bread of the n.-xt
life in the other hand. No such inapt
work as that done by the Christian
man who. during our civil war, went
Into a hospital with tracts and. com
ing to the bed of a man whose kgs had
been amputated, gave him a tract on
the sin of dancing! I rejoice before
God that never are sympathetic words
uttered, never a prayer offered, never
a Christian almsgiving indulged in but
it is blessed. There is a place in
Switzerland. I have been told, where
the utterance of one word will bring
back a score of echoes, and I have to
tell you that a sympathetic word, a
kind word, a generous word, a helpful
word, uttered in the dark places of the
town will bring back KMioo echoes
from heaven. Are there In this as
semblnge those who know by expern
enee tile tragedies In the third w Grb
ot Hie night? I am not here to thrust
you back with one hard word. Take
the bandage from your bruised se’d
aud put < n It the soothing salve of
Christ's gospel and of God’s eompas
•Ion.
I could give you the history in n
minute of one of tin best fi'.ends 1
ever had. GuUi 'eof my own family !
never had a U*tter friend. He wel
corned me to my home at the west il<
was of splendid personal appearance
but he had an ardor of soul and r
warmth of affection that made me lov»
4>:m like a brolLo r. I saw in n cumin;
out of the saloons and gam'ding In 1!
and they surrounded my friend, ano
they took him at the weak point- his
social nature-and 1 saw him going
down, aud 1 had a fair talk with him.
for I never yet saw a man you could
not talk with on the subject of bis hub
its if you talked with him in the right
way. I said to him. “Why don’t you
give up your bad habits and become a
Christian?” I remember now Just bow
be looked, leaning over bis counter, as
lit replied: “I wish I could. Oh. sir. I
should like to be a Christian, but I
have gone so far astray I can’t get
back!” So the time went on. After
awhile the day of sickness came. I
was summoned to his sickbed. 1 lias
tuned. It took me but a very few mo
uients to get there. I was surprised
as I went In. I saw him in his ordi
nary dress, fully dressed, lying on top
of the bed. I gave him my hand, aud
be seized it convulsively and said: "Oh
how glad I nm to see you! Sit down
there." I sat down, and he said: "Mr
Talmage. just where you sit now my
mother sat last night. She has been
dead twenty years. Now, 1 don’t want
you to think I am out of my mind or
that I nm superstitious, hut. sir. she
sat there last night, and she said.
‘Roswell, 1 wish you would do better.
I wish you would do better.’ I said:
‘Mother, 1 wish I could do better. I try
to do better, but I can’t. Mother, you
used to help me; why can’t you help
me now?’ And, sir. I got out of bed.
for It was a reality, and I went to her
and threw my arms around her neck,
and 1 said: ’Mother. I will do better,
but you must help. I can’t do this
alone.’ ” I knelt and prayed. That
night bis sou! went to the Lord who
made it.
A Typical Sooth African Store.
O. R Larson, of Ba> Vila, Sun
days River, Cape Colony, conducts
a store typical of Souih Africa at
winch can be purchased anything
from the proverbial ’’needle to an
anchor." This store is situated in
a valley n : ne miles from the nearest
railway station and about twenty-five
miles from the nearest town. Mr
Larson says: “I am favored with
the custom of farmers within a radius
of thirty miles, to many of whom I
have supplied Chamberlain’s reme
dies. All testify to their value in a
household where a doctor’s advice is
almost out of the question. Within
one mile of my store the population
is perhaps sixty. Of these, within
the past twelve months, no less than
fourteen have been absolutely cured
by Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
