Up All Night
\ / v
\ / \
This getting up every night
with the baby, or some of the
older children, is all wrong.
Not that the children are to ,
blame. If he’s the baby, prob
ably his food is wrong. Vinol
will help his mother stand the
strain of nursing.
We have often seen whole
families of older children who
keep the parents awake o’,
nights. First one, then the
other is ailing.
These children seem well
enough at times; but they are
white, hollow-eyed, often list
less, with irregular appetites,
peevish and fretful, wakeful at
night and constantly taking cold.
The use of Vinol, in conjunc
tion with Vinlax to regulate the
bowels, will benefit these child
ren almost in a day.
There is nothing in Vinol that
can nurt them. It is pleasant
to take. If it doesn’t do the
work, we will give you the
money back. ,

TALMAGE
SERMON
•t
By Rev.
FRANK DE WITT TALMAGE. D.D..
Pastor of Jofferaon Park Presby
terian Cnurch, Chicago
l> ■ * '
Chicago, Dec. 7. — Assurances and
suggestions that will help to console
many mourning souls are given by
Rev. Frank De Witt Talmage in this
discourse on the text Isaiah xl, 11, “He
shf il gather the lambs with his arm
and carry them in his bosom and shall
gently lend those that are with young.”
What does the “empty cradle” of this
morning's theme mean? Does it mean
that the babies who once played in our
nurseries have grown up Into big boys
and girls, who rush away every morn
ing from the breakfast table to be in
time to answer the cull of the school
hell? Does it mean that our children
have become young men and women
and left the old homestead to go forth
into the great battle of life? Ob, no.
This morning I am going to preach up
on the little white cradle which has
been emptied in order to till up the lit
tle white casket. I am going to tell
why Jesus, as the Good Shepherd, of
ten comes into the homes and gathers
the little lambs into his arms and car
ries them into the green pastures of
heaven. We know he has always cared
for them, as my text asserts, while
they still remained with us upon earth,
but not till they reach heaven can they
realize his perfect love.
Did you ever stop to think that the
vast majority of the human race die in
childhood and that over one-third die
in infancy before the fourth year has
been reached? Only the other day I
preached a funeral sermon in the house
of .a d<jar friend, in which lay a little
white casket. As I was looking into
the face of the little boy, whom I had
welcomed into the world and whom I
had also baptized, a sympathetic friend
said: “Oh, Mr. Talmage, this is awfully
hard to bear! I know what it means to
have the Divine Gardener come and
pluck the blossoms out of the nursery.
I have had seven children during my
life; six of them are dead. Only one
boy is alive of them all.” As I left that
home of mourning and stood upon the
street waiting for the pallbearers to
place their precious burden in the white
hearse by conversation I found out
that the two mothers who were then
standing nearest to my side each had
two nurseries. The one nursery was
for their living children within the four
walls of the home. The second nursery
was for their dead children within the
four sid^ of the family plot.
Ilnl^ppor Sorrowing; llenrtM.
Now, my friends, 'what is the mean
ing of this wholesale emigration of our
little ones to the heavenly shore? Are
the life and the death of the majority
of children a failure? Is the empty
cradle so empty that it can hold for us
no inspiring lesson of good cheer, or is
Christ today gathering the lambs into
his arms and carrying them in his bos
om so that he can the more safely lead
the bereaved parents along the thorny
and dangerous pathways of an earthly
journey to the glorious destination pre
pared for them ahead? The marginal
notes of my Bible affirm that this por
tion of my text may mean that the
Good Shepherd may be carrying the lit
tle lambs in his bosom to the green pas
tures of heaven so that the mother
sheep, with bleat and cry, will follow
more anxiously and closely after the
Divine Master. So today I preach to
thousands of sorrowing hearts. I want
to tell them why their dead children
were born and also why God does not
let the vast majority of the human race
grow old ami with bedimmed eyesight
see the twilight of threescore years and
ten.
The empty cradle can be the sacred
hearthstone of a purified matrimonial
love. It can be the holy covouantal
ark, tin* cherubim of which are made
out of far more valuable material than
those which were once molded out of
melted gold. These new cherubim may
be the spiritual bodies of our redeemed
children, who are hovering over us in
perpetual benediction. It may be the
trysting place where tired and care
worn men and women meet again to
talk over the sweet memories of the
past.
Some people do not believe this. They
skeptically assert that a cradle, full or
no, is a wedge which drives fathers
and mothers apart rather than a golden
link of love which clasps parental heart
to parental heart. Lately a very dear
family friend, who had been a wife for
many years, but not a mother, told me
that she really believed her husband
and herself were more dependent upon
each other and therefore loved each
other the more because they bad no
children. 1 only laughed at her. “Why,”
I said, “when you attempt to talk that
way you are like a blind man feeling
his way along the streets with a staff,
going step by step, who thinks he is
getting along all right and who is at
tempting to prove that the sunlight is
useless merely because he has never
seen a sunrise or a sunset, having been
horn blind.” Every true father knows
that lie never loved his wife as much
the day before his first baby was born
as the day after. Every true father
knows that the happiest moment of his
! life was not the day he held his bride’s
hand at the marriage altar, but the day
that lie could sit by his wife’s bedside
and hold in his big hand a little tiny
hand. This tiny hand he was awk
wardly holding In great fear of letting
it fall, lest It break into pieces, like a
little cup of porcelain. And while he
held his tiny band In his with happy
look he would turn his loving eyes
upon the smiling face of his wife, his
baby’s inotl er. *
i n. I'ier o? Love.
After the dark clouds of a nativity
have ikjr some time hovered over a
homo and at last parted to let a lit
tle human sunbeam drop into the cra
dle, the words “husband" and “wife”
ought to have for at least two human
hearts a deeper, wider, holier mean
ing. These words ought to have the
same kind of a holy interpretation as
one of them had a few years ago for
the warden of the Pittsburg jail. His
wife liberated the two Biddle brothers,
who were about to be executed for
murder, and ran away with them, and
remained with them until they were
shot. When the reporters came to this
warden and asked what he wanted
to say in reference to his wife, the
recollection of the relation she sus
tained to the family, deeply as she had
dishonored it, seems to have surged
over his soul, and he said: “I have
nothing to say against my former wife.
Furthermore, I will not allow any one
In my presence to speak disrespectful
ly of her. Remember, gentlemen, she
is the mother of my children.”
Now, my sorrowing friends, if a liv
ing child can have such a restraining
influence upon the parental heart how
much more should an empty cradle
purify the love which the twain
pledged each other at the marriage
•altar! We have often heard how old
soldiers who had slept under the same
blanket and fought side by side through
the civil war cling to each other all
through life on account of their past
sufferings. If this be true, is not your
marital love purer and sweeter and tru
er because you have washed and
cleansed it in the empty cradle, which
has been filled to the highest edge with
your mutual tears? After your little
girl died you hunted up all her old
playmates and took them to your heart
because they loved Hattie or Nellie or
Mabel. If that be true, tell me, O
broken hearted parents,'did you not
love each other with a deeper, wider
and holier affection after you together
nursed the little sufferer through that
last long painful sickness? Do you not
now love each other more after you
together have arranged the little white
flowers upon the little white casket?
Do you not today love each other the
more because when those sad anniver
saries of your baby’s death come you
never mention her name but give to
each other a holy kiss, while your eyes
and cheeks are wet with falling tears?
Yes, your little dead child’s life had a
distinct mission. She lived long enough
to make the twain one flesh. From her
casket today she reaches out one arm
and puts it about her father’s neck.
She reaches out the other arm and puts
it about the mother’s neck. And now
her dead lips part as she gives you this
holy benediction, “Papa, mamma, be
true to each other and love each other
for your dead baby’s sake.”
A Heavenly Mnanet.
An empty cradle is a potent magnet
for a true, consecrated, spiritual, pa
rental life. It makes a great deal of
difference how an average father and
mother feel toward heaven, whether or
no they have a little one in the spirit
land. “Where your treasure is, there
is your heart also” can be interpreted
in more ways than one. You have a
boy who has started out to earn his
own living, lie lias become the owner
of a little shoestore in one of the out
lying districts of some large city. When
you visit him and his young bride, does
he take you the first day to see any of
the great stores in the downtown dis
tricts? Does he want you as soon as
you arrive to visit the noted art gal
leries or the libraries or the famous
auditorium, where the mightiest ora
tors of the world have spoken and the
most beautiful voices of Europe and
America have sung? Oh, no. The first
place the boy takes you to is his own
little store. Why, his face beams with
pride as he says: “Mother, just look at
these show windows! Are they not
splendid? Those windows cost me
$800. but they are worth it. Then,
mother, I intend as soon as the busi
ness increases enough to warrant it to
build an addition on the back of the
store. Then perhaps 1 may be able to
hire this corner store and knock out
the intervening walls. Then I shall
run a line of furnishing goods as well
as a shoestore. Don’t you think this
Is a fine situation? And, mother, I
made all this myself practically out of
nothing—out of the $30 you gave me
when 1 left home.” Why does your
boy go on like that? Easy enough to
understand. His treasure is in that
store. There his heart is also.
What Is true in reference to the busi
ness life is true in reference to the
home. You may travel all around the
world. You may stand in a Louvre or
a Luxembourg. You may wander
through a Windsor castle or a Vatican.
You may even travel for a time among
the poetic beauties of India or Ceylon,
hut when the evening hour comes your
thoughts will leap over continents and
swim over seas. They will travel past
palaces and cathedrals and Loudon
Towers filled with crown jewels until
at last they enter some humble home
and smile and laugh and cry by some
cozy fireside. Why? Because your
loved ones are in that home. And
where your treasure is there is your
heart also.
Now, by the same law of reasoning,
God wants to make heaven a place, a
practicality; no condition, but a verita
ble actuality. How is the Divine Fa
ther to do this? By taking us to
heaven ourselves? Oh, no! God will
not do this, because our work is not yet
done. But God can make us feel that
heaven Is a home by coming into our
homes and taking our best and dearest
treasures there. What does he take?
Our money? Sometimes. But gener
ally someililng dearer and more pre
cious than that. God as a loving Fa
ther takes the dearest possession wo
have. He takes a little child out of
the nursery. He takes that for which
• mother would give the diamond rings
off her fingers, the silk dresses out of
her wardrobe, tlx* house over her head;
for which l; > wmid give* anything and
everything if she could only get back
her child. God in love takes that little
child out of the parental arms. He
takes it as a hostage, as the great kings
of old used tb demand the sons and
daughters of their defiant subjects, to
be scut to the royal court as a guaran
tee that those subjects would there
after behave themselves. God, when
he fomes into our nurseries and takes
the little ones home with him to
heaven, practically says to the bereft
parents: “Father and mother, live purer
and polder and more consecrated lives.
Live as Jesus would have you live.
Then some day you will come to the
heavenly land where you shall be able
forever and ever to dwell with your
little ones.” Does not this suggestion
give to you an added force to the beau
tiful words, “And he shall gently lead
those that are with young?”
Gnthcrlng; the Lnmha.
An empty cradle signifies, in a general
sense, a populous heaven. Some years
ago I read a mathematician’s figures
in reference to the size of heaven, giv
en according to the measurements of
the prophetic vision. I have forgotten
what those figures were and would not
give them even if I could remember
them. But this I do remember: The
mathematician stated that if the world
were to last a hundred thousand years,
and if the human race could keep on
doubling itself every few years, accord
ing to the Malthusian ratio, and if all
children born would grow to maturity
and all those grown men and women
would be ultimately saved, there would
still be room enough in heaven for ev
ery immortal soul to have an immense
palace all to himself and have immense
grounds around that palace. Now, if
heaven be such an immense place, how
would it he possible for God to popu
late It, in any true sense of the wo’d,
unless he every year had a wholes, le
emigration to heaven of the little chil
dren? He surely could not depend en
tirely upon populating heaven from the
old folks. God Knows, and we also
know, that all men and women can be
saved who wish to be saved through
the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ.
But the trouble with the grownup
folks is that a vast percentage of us
do not want to he saved. We firmly
set our teeth and face toward sin. So
I believe that God. in order to make
sure of a populated heaven, has sent
again and again and again the angel
of eternal life, whicli some of us gloom
ily call the death angel, to call our
babies into the heavenly land.
That the Good Shepherd, both in this
world and the next, gathers all the lit
tle lambs into uis bosom there is no
doubt. Some year5 ago in a Newark
church an aged statesman applied to
the session for permission to join. One
of the elders immediately arose and
said, “Governor, we were just about to
examine two little girls for member
ship. but we know they will be willing
to wait, so we can first begin with
you.” “No,” answered the famous
statesman. “I do not want them to
wait. 1 would like to be examined
along with them, if you, brethren, are
willing. Jesus said that if I will come
to him in the spirit of a little child I
can be saved. So today I would like to
come with one of the children upon one
side of me and the other upon the other
sale of me. for I know Christ is willing
to receive them, and perhaps lie will
also look upon me as a child.” Ah, yes,
there is no doubt that all the children
who die go to swell up Hie population
of heaven, and so, O sorrowing par
ents, you should not only be ready to
let your little babies climb into the
Saviour's arms because you know that
they are all saved, hut you should also
be willing to let them precede you be
cause you know they will be there to
welcome you.
('liilUrcn In Heaven.
An empty cradle signifies that heaven
is to be a place filled with children.
This heading is entirely distinct from
that which we have discussed—namely,
that our children who die immediately
go into glory. It is distinct, because
many people, even some good profess
ing Christians, seem to have a very
hazy and bewildered idea of heaven.
They think heaven is to be a kind of a
tenement house district or they sup
pose it to be a place where everybody
goes through a kind of metamorphosis
and becomes so changed in looks and
speech in a little while that his very
best friends would not know him if
they should meet him when walking
on one of the golden boulevards near to
the beautiful gate. But, tliank God,
we will know our loved ones in heaven.
Moses and Elias, after having spent a
thousand years in heaven, talked upon
the Mount of Transfiguration just the
same as they talked to their friends
when upon earth. We shall know
Jesus in heaven by the scare upon Ids
•resurrected body which he received
upon the cross in his earthly body. I
believe our redeemed friends are to be
just the same in heaven, in one sense,
as they were when upon earth. I be
lieve they are just the same, except
that in the heavenly land they have no
pain, no sickness, no sin, no parting, no
death, no tears.
If there are no children in heaven,
why did St. John in the apocalypse
cry out in rapture, “And I saw the
dead, small and great, stand before
God!” Some of the most reliable of
commentators have translated that pas
sage, “And I saw the Infants and adults
stand before God.” If there are no
children in Leaven, why did Jesus say
that “in my Father’s house are many
mansions,” or many homes? Did you
ever see a place where there was a col
lection of many homes and no children?
Heaven must be full of little ones. I
once heard of a thief who was trying
to escape from the offleers of the law
by running through a public school
yard. But the little children crowded
around him and got under his feet and
tripped him up until he was captured.

.. man-
work to get into heaven. Why? Our
dep uted and rodiomed children, with
the .• heats of little friends, will come
down to the pearly gates to greet us.
They will crowd 11 bout us in such num
bers that we will have hard work to
press toward the white throne. We
shall greet them as children. We will
kiss the same lips and run our fingers
through the same curls; we shall there
have a celestial nursery; we shall also
have a fragrant playground in which
our little Iambs can frisk and frolic, in
which our little departed children can
gather for us the wild flowers and gar
land our white robes with the red roses
of Sharon and with the lilies of the val
ley, blooming upon the banks of the
river of Life.
God's Favorites.
An empty cradle signifies that God
has his favorites, if I might reverently
use that term. Oh, that I had more
time in which to develop this inspiring
and tremendous thought! By his favor
ites I mean this: God has selected our
redeemed children out of all the hu
man race as the ones he wishes to save
from suffering, us the ones who by his
tender love are to win all the joys of
heaven without any of the tears of
Gethsemane.
Perhaps I can illustrate this idea in a
very simple way. Supposing you were
a maji of great wealth. As you gp up
and down the world your heart aches
for the little bootblacks and newsboys
whom you meet in the street and who
seemingly have no show in life. You
were ouee a waif of the street, and you
know what their temptations and strug
gles are. You endow a great institution,
where these hoys can have educational
advantages and the comforts of a
home. You cannot send all th * boys
there, because you have not money
enough, but you can send some. So you
go up and down the Urge oi ies. s -lect-
ing here and there i'n l r .
you can find The, a ' o
bootblacks. You select the
the most p; ; ..! * •
lr. Well, in the saim way I think God
has his favorites, and th y are children
who are dead and translated When
< hrist thinks of all "the temptations he
hail to meet on earth and all the sor
rows he endured, he resolve ; to relieve
many of the burdens, and he takes
away cuicfly those of whom he said,
“Of such are the kingdom of heaven.”
So Christ comes into the world, and he
selects the best and brightest of our
children. Have you not noticed that
the handsomest and the best boys and
girls are, as a rule, the first to be called
away? Well, Christ comes in and takes
our best and purest and lifts them up
into his arms and says, “Ah, this lamb
has too frail and beautiful a soul to be
subjected to the buffetings of this
world.” Thus Christ took for awhile
some of our little ones out of our sight.
Ah, my dear friends, are you not glad
that your dead babies are among God’s
favorites? Are you not glad that they
do not have to suffer as you have to
suffer and weep as you weep, stumble
over the open graves as you stumble,
sin as perhaps you have sinned? Are
you not thankful that your little chil
dren in heaven are to be numbered
among God’ specially honored ones?
Thus my text today has a most prac
tical and inspiringly helpful message
for all men and women who have sa
cred little graves in their family plots.
I want you all to set your faces toward
the heavenly land, where your beloved
children are waiting for you. I want
you truly to feel that Jesus, the Good
Shepherd, has lifted the little lambs
into bis arms and is carrying them in
his bosom. Remember, the parting
will not he long. Believe me, if you
have faith in Jesus Christ the reunion
will surely come. And so I will close
this sermon with the sweet consolation
a little Philadelphia girl once gave
to her aged grandmother, Mrs. William
Harper, the widow of the noted pastor
of the Broad Street Presbyterian
church. One day, sitting at the feet of
her grandmother, this little girl looked
up and said: “Grandmamma, do you
miss granddaddy? Well, never mind.
I know be misses you. We will not be
separated long, grandma. Perhaps you
will go next; perhaps I. But it will not
be long. And then, grandmamma,
won’t ‘daddy’ be glad to see us both?”
No, bereaved parents, your separation
from your little ones will not be long,
if you only place your faith in Christ
and live for him. It will not be long.
Perhaps you will be the next to go;
perhaps I. But when we are all to
gether in heaven will not your little
ones be happy to greet us? But the
parting will not be long. Sad hearts,
it will not be long.

Kodol Dyspepsia Cure
Digests what you eat*
Things We
Like^ Best
Often Disagree With lie
Because we overeat of them. Indl*
ges’ on follows. But there’s a way to
escape such consequences. A dose of a
good digestant like Kodol will relive you
at once. Your stomach Is simply too
weak to digest what you eat. That’s all
indigestion Is. Kodol digests the food
without the stomach’s aid. Thus the
stomach rests while the body is strength
ened by wholesome food. Dieting Is un
necessary. Kodol digests any kind of
good food. Strengthens and invigorates.
