t !>V ^3 51 UU- lil?]. •fr. , Sr. - // f.M Wasiiincton, Dec. 20.—While tliis discourse of Dr. Talnmfre rebukes ar rogance it encourages buinanity and shows how the evening of life may he brightened. The text is 1 Kings xx, 11, “Let Hot him that giideth on his harness hrast himself as he that put- teth it oil'.” Harness is the obsolete word for ar mor. It means harness for the man. not harness for the beast; harness for battle, not harness for the plow. The ancient armor consisted of helmet for the head, breastplate and shield for the heart, greaves for the feet. The text makes a comparison between a man enlisting for some war and a vet eran returning, the one putting on the armor ^td the other putting it off. BeiiLa.’ad, the king of Syria, thought O could easily overcome tin* king < f Israel. Indeed, the Syrian was so sure of the victory that ho spread an ante bellum banquet. With thirty-two kings he was celebrating what they were go ing to do. There were in nil thirty- throe kings at the carousal, and their condition is described in the Bible, not as convivial or stimulated exaltation, At the Soldiers’ home in the suburbs of this city I often admire the peaceful i and contented looks of the venerable | heroes as they sit under the trees or go In and out the tine abode that our gov ernment has appropriately provided for them. They are not longing for other Cbapultepecs. They do not want to undertake another South Mountain. Their foot does not ache to get into the stirrup of the cavalrymhn. Thev tiro not longing for the hardtack of the spldiers’ breakfast along the Chick- ahominy. They have no desire for an other ride in the ambulance to the field hospital. When the Spanish war broke out, they sometimes wondered if their rheumatic knee would allow them to keep step in a march, and if their sight was good enough to see an ad vancing foeman, and if their ear was alert enough to hear the command “Charge!” Hut for the most part they are glad that there is no more war for them. So let all of the aged in peace with God, through the blessed Christ, cultivate contentment and thank the Lord their Sedan has been fought and the war is over. “Let not him that girdeth on his harness boast himself as he that putteth it off.” There are old farmers who cannot do one more day’s work. What har vests they raised In 1870! They knew the rotation of crops as well es they knew the r tat ion of the seasons. Un der what blistering suns they swung the scythe and the cradle! Through what deep snbws they drew the logs or cut their way to the foddering of the cattle! What droughts, what fresh ets, what insectile invasions, they re member! To clothe and feed and edu- but drunk. Their gilded and bannered i cate the household they went through pavilions were surrounded by high mettled horses, neighing and champing and hitched to chariots such as kings rode in. lutthadad sends officers over to the king of Israel demanding the surrender of the city, saying, “Tin u shall deliver me thy silver and thy gold and thy wives and thy children.” and afterward sends other offb-ers. saying that the pa!ace of the king will be searched and everything Benhabad warts iie will take without aski g. Then tin* king of Israe! call d a i oun.-il word is it ms sent Ian k usonalile •a Henhad I he king < to Ih n- deu and id sends f Israel. 'ha of arrogance and brava- cf war. ha dad will he another a mess; do, praei iealiy ty.ng: “V e will no stroy you utterly. I will grind, Samaria into tin* dust, but then* will not be dust enough to h.ake a handful for each one of my troop: .” Then the king of Israel replied to Lenhadad. pi act h a by say ing: “Let me see you do what you say. You royal braggart, you might •better have p r iponeu your banquet un til after the battle instcau of spreading It before the battle. You Imzra too goon. 'Let not him that girdeth on his barners. boast himself as he that put- lb it off. ’’ Too . , !m*li nooMtinit. An avub noho of courage and right eousness. the Israelitish army came down on B nhadad and his host. It was a hand to hand fight, each Israel ite hewing down a Syrian. Benhadad. on horseback, gets away with some of the cavalry, but is only saved for a worse defeat, in which 10:1,000 Syrian infantry wen* slaughtered in one day. Now we see the sarcasm and the epi grammatic power of the message of my text s< nt by the king of Israel to Benhadad. “Let not him that girdeth on his harness boast himself us he that putteth it off.” All up and down history we see such too early boasting. Soult, the marshal of Frrineo. was so certain that ho would conquer that he had a proclama tion printed announcing himself king of Portugal and had a grand feast pre pared for 4 o'clock that afternoon, but before that hour he tied in ignominious defeat, and Wellington of the conquer ing host sat down at 4 o'clock at the very banquet the marshal <*f France had ordered for himself. Charles V. invaded France and was so sure of conquest that tm requested Paul .Ic- vius. the historian, to gather together a large amount of paper on which to write the story of his many victories, but disease and famine seized upon his troopers, and lie retreated in dis may. So Renhadad’s behavior lias been copied in ail ages of the world. It will be i; y o’ jeet. among oilier les sons, to rhow that he who puts off the armor, having finished the battle, is more to be congratulated than he who begins. First, I find encouragement In this subject for the aged who have got through the work and struggle of earthly life. My venerable friends, if you had at twenty-five years of age full appreciation of what you would hrve to go through in the thirties anil the forties and the fifties of your life time you would have been appalled. Fortunately the bereavements, the temptations, the persecute ns. the hardships, were curtained from your Bight. With more or less fortitude you passed through the crises of pain and sadness and disappointment and fa tigue and still live to recount the di vine help th;»*t sustained you. At twen ty or thirty years of your age at the tup of the drum you put on the har ness. Now. at sixty or seventy or eighty, you are peacefully putting It off. You would not want to try tin* battle of life over again. So many of Just your temperament and with as good a starting and as tine a parentage and seemingly with as much equipoise of character as you had have made complete shipwreck that you would not want again to run the risks. Though you ran look back and see many mistakes, the next time you might make worse mistakes, instead of being depressed over the fact that toils and seif sacrifices that the world know hut little about. Best, aged man! Let tin* boys do the shoveling and thrashing and cutting and sweating. You have put the harness off, and do not try to put it on again. There are old mechanics that can no more shove the plane or pound with the hummer or bore with the bit or run up tie* hoMor !■> the scaffolding. Mas ter nne* iiiirs they were or subordi nates who wrought faithfully in the v irk of I:* use or barn or ship building. You have a rinlit to quit. You have fit >,ln il your task. Be thankful that your work is done. Fiiillifel Service rteniemhered. Tliun there are aged physicians. What j tragedies of pain and accident they I have witnessed! How much suffering i they have assuaged! How many brave bailies they have fought with lancet ' and cataclysm! How many fevers they I cooled! How many broken bones they ; set! How many paroxysms theyqu'et- ed! How many anxious days they passed when they knew that human lives depended upon their skill and fidelity! They drove back death from ! many a cradle. And there are the old ministers. Once , they were foremost in general assetn- | Mies and eonfen aces ami associations. ; They have preached in IVntecosis. ; They have stood by Christian death beds and seen Klijahs go up in flaming chariots of glory. The gospel they j preached for fifty or sixty years ii- j lumines their ev ry feature, ffney have stopped preaHiing, for their breath is , short, or their nerves are a-Jangle, or i th y lose their thread of discourse or ! Do not boast of your moral strength. One of the most brilliant men of the nineteenth century, having temporarily reformed from inebriacy, stood on the platform of Broadway tabernacle. New York, and said, “Were lids great globe one crystallite uml I were offered the possession of it if I would drink one glass of brandy I would refuse with scorn, and I want no religion to help me.’’ But that same man died at I’oughkeepsie a drunken pauper. Bet ter underrate than overrate ourselves. Fninoaii Sentiment Re^nted. My subject is also a refutation of the famous sentiment that God is on the side of the heaviest artillery. From all I can read about this struggle Ben hadad spoke the truth when he said, “The gods do so unto me and more also if the dust of Samaria shall suf- j lice for handfuls for all the people that | follow me.” He was so confident that j with his superior numbers he could j defeat the king of Israel and capture 1 Samaria that he left the work for a ; short afternoon. He is nt noon In wassail with his royal associates. The j battle of Waterloo was not opened un- i til twenty-five minutes of 12 o’clock j at noon, but that was because the | ground was too wet to move the artil- j lery. Benhadad waits until afternoon because lie is overconfident. God is not on the side of the most swords or the most war chariots or the most can- j non if they be in the wrong, but on 1 the side of the right. How such a pre- | posterous sentiment as 1 have mention ed should have gained sw^v I know not when all history proc!a!®.-i the op- ! posite. Describing tin* very next bat- | tie in which Benhadad fought and was I miserably defeated, the Bible says, j “The children of Israel pitched before them like two little flocks of kids, hut I the Syrians filled the country.” How | insignificant were the unarmed Israel- ; ites, half starved and unorganized, compared with Pharaoh’s host on foot, on horseback and charioted! Rnt the waves of the Bed sea took part in the conflict, parting to lot the pursued 1 pass, hut coming together to destroy the pursuers. The Midianites and Ainalekitos were like grasshoppers for multitudes, but ff ’d men uuder Gideon came down, their only weapons pitch ers and lamps and trumpets, and as tlmy held up tin* lamps and threw down the pitchers and blew (in* trum pets the flash of tlr* lights and the bl.ire of the instruments and the crash of the crockery made their enemy fall bne’; in wild terror. Notice also that my text takes it for granted fl at you must put on the har ness, else how can you take it off? Life is a bat!le~a thirty years’, a forty years’ or a sixty years’ war. Helmet you must have, for the battleaxes e,f skepticism and agnosticism are aimed at your head. Every possible effort will lie made to make you think wrong. The young man who gets Ids head filled with ivrotig notions about God. about Christ, about tin* soul, about tla* great beyond, is air ady captured. Put on the helmet, tin* latchet well adjusted under the chin. Think right, and you will act right. Yes, hr<*asip!ate for tin* heart. That is the mest important part to 1“ defend* o. That decides what you love and what you hate, wnr.t you hope armor or ribbed armor, fashioned in ancient foundry, but no one can give you the outfit you need except God, who is master of this world and the infernal world, from which ascend the mightiest hostilities. Lay h Id of God. Nothing but the arm of Omnipotence is strong enough for the tempted. SfrenKhh In tin* Closm*! Armor. Young man. put on the entire gospel outfit. If you have come from the country to live in the city, imitate the example of a young man who arrived in New York on Saturday night, in tending the following Monday to enter his place of employment. On Sunday morning, carrying out the good advice before leaving his country home, he went to church. Standing at the door, he was abashed as the beauty and fashion and wealth swept through the doors of the sanctuary, and he dared not go in. As he was about turning to go away a gentleman said, “Have you a seat, young man?” “No, sir.” “Do you belong to the city?” "No, sir.” “Where is your home?” "In the country.” "How long have you been in the city?” "I came in last night.” “What are you going to do here?” “I hope to go into business tomorrow.” “That is right. You have begun well, young man. Never forsake the God of your fathers. Come, I will give you a sent in my pew.” The next morning the young man presented his letter in business circles. “What do you* want, young man?” said the Scotch mer chant. "I want to got credit on some leather, upper and sole.” “Have you references?” “I think I can get refer ences. My father has friends here.” “Young man, did I not see you yester day in Mr. Lenox’s pew?” “I do not know, sir. I was at church, and a kind gentleman asked me to sit in his pew.” “YVs, young man. that was Robert Lenox. I will trust any one that Mr. Lenox invites into ids pew. You need not trouble yourself about references. When these goods are gone, come and get more.” That young man became an eminent merchant and. more than that, a Chrisiian merchant, and lii* attribute d all his success to that first Sabbath in the city.

I was so bad my mind showed signs of weak lier?. I began taking Dr. Miles’ Nervine, and I know it saved uiv life.” Nervine Dr. Miles* Saved me from the insane asy lum.” Mrs. A. M.

Two mes sages had he sent to the king of Israel, both messages full of insolence and braggadocio. With brimming beaker In hand he is talking with the royal group about what he will do with the spoils of the victory he is going to achieve that afternoon. He takes it for granted that Samaria will surren der. He gives command for the cap ture of some of the inhabitants of Samaria win are approaching, saying. “Whether they be come out for peace bike them alive, or whether they he come out for war take them alive.” But behold the fugitive king in fright ened retreat before sundown! Better not tell boastingly what you are going to do. Wait until it is done. You do well to lay out your plans, but there are so many mistakes and disappoint ments lu life that you niffy not be able to carry out your plans, and there is no need of Invoking the world's de rision and caricature. Napoleon was so sure of conquering England. Scot land and Ireland that he had a medal struck celebrating the conquest, which he never made. On that qtodnl was rcpreseii'od his own crowned head. Dr. I'endlet'.M and Mr. Saunders were bilking !n the tune of persecution under Cjin ai Mary. Saunders was i eiqbllng and afraid, but iVudleton said: "What! Man. there is much i.ioie* eause for me to iY:*r than you. You are sinall. ami I have a Urge bodily frame, but you will see tin* last piece of ties tlcsh consumed to ashes befi ro I ever forsake .losus Christ and his truth, which I ha’.«• inofes.-K :1.’’ Not long aft er Saunders, the faint bearied. pave cidi s earthly happiness and eternal des tiny. HeYvnre of Hidden Foes. Young man, see that you have on a complete armor. All looks bright now, and it seems as if you could marcli right on without opposition or attack, but be not deceived. There are hidden foes ready to halt you on your way. The same cup that Benhadad drank our of just before bis defeat will be offered to effect your deft at. His Intoxicated brain saw victory when there was nothing hut rout and ruin. Y\ hat work Bcnhadad’s cup made for Benhadad’s army! What shipwrecks on the sea. what disasters on the land, caused by inflaming liquids put upon the tongue to set seething the brain! How many kings of thought and influence, with crowns brighter than the one Benhadad wore, have by strong drink been put Into flight ns base as that in which Benhadad rode! "Give them to me.” says the demon of inebriacy. “Give them to me; band them down—the brightest legislators of the land. 1 will thicken their tongue; 1 will bloat their cheek; I will stagger their step; 1 will damn their soul. Hand them down to me- tiie physician out of his labora tory. the attorney from the courtroom, the minister of the gospel from the al tars of God. Hand them down to me. the queens of the drawing room, and l will disgrace their names and biast their homes and throw them down far ther than Jezebel fill to die dogs tbat crunched her carcass.” We hold our breath in horror as once in awhile we hear of some one, either man just arrived, put yourself under good influences your first day in town. Then* ban's your helmet. Take it dow n There is your breastplate. Ad just it. There is all the harness for safely and triumph. Put it on. Also see in my subject the f lly of nuderc ffimafing the enemy. That was Bonhadad’s fatal mistake-. He 0: 1 whip them before sundown. He waul ed less than half a day to capture Sa maria and make the king < f Israel ca pitulate. But-what he thought was s i easy turned out to bo the impossible. Better overestimate than underesti mate the other side. We who are try ing to make the world what it ought to he contend not with homunculi. We | wrestle not with striplings. We have a whole army i t antagonists trying to halt the King of God and overthrow the cause of righteousness. If we se cure the victory, it will be a struggle as fierce as when Darius and Alexan- 1 <U’r grappled each other at Arbeln. as when Joan of Are rode triumphant at Orleans, us when the Russians met th * Swedes at I’oltavfN .as when Marlbor ough commanded the n'ii'Kd armies at_’ Blenheim. Those wore fights f r eSffh- j !y crowns and dominions, but the tight that now goes ?m between all the allied 1 armies of heaven and all the allied ar mies of hell is to settle whether God or Satan is to have possession of this planet. Put Off the IlfirncMN. I congratulate all those who are now In the thickest of life’s battles that the time is coming when the struggle will end and you will pdt the harness off. helmet and greaves and breastplate having fulfilled their mission.
