TALMAGE
SERMON
m
By Rev.
FRANK DE WITT TALMAGE. D.D..
Pastor of Jefferson Park Presby
terian Ohurch, Chica»o
Chicago, April 2G.—In this sermon
the preacher shows by argument and
Illustration the folly and danger of
writing letters when the mind is in
fluenced by anger or otherwise so ex
cited and disturbed as to obscure the
rational judgment. The text is Daniel
vi. 8, “Now, O king, establish the de
cree, and sign the writing, that it be
not changed.”
King Darius was about to be caught
in a trap. The jealous state officers,
who had long been plotting against the
young prime minister, had at last
found a way in which they thought
they could destroy him. “Aha!” they
chuckled. “We will make the king sign
this young upstart’s death warrant,
lie will not know that he Is doing it.
We shall play upon our royal master’s
vanity and ask him to send forth a
public letter and sign it, so that the
decree cannot be changed.”
This public letter, or proclamation,
was a singular document. It was dex
terously devised to exalt the king’s su
premacy and was well calculated to
please an oriental despot by making
him appear to his subjects as the ex
clusive source of all good. It prohib
ited every subject making any request
of God or man. save to the king only,
for a period of thirty days. These plot
ters knew that Daniel was in the habit
of praying to God every day, and they
wore sure that he would continue to do
so in spite of the king’s proclamation.
He would thus become an offender
against the law and would incur the
penalty, which was to be cast into the
den of the lions. “Now,” they would
say when the king signed the paper,
“we shall destroy that prime minister.
We could not do it by the sword, but
we shall do it by the king’s impulsive
peu.” Their plot operated as they ex
pected. and Daniel was thrown into
the den of lions. We know how the
king lamented signing the letter, but
how powerless he was to recall his sig
nature.
How many people have had similar
cause for regret! How often words
written under a hasty impulse have
recoiled on the writer! Spoken words
may be forgotten, but written words
do not change. They may be used to
condemn the writer long years after
they were written; aye, after he him
self is dead.
Never write an important letter until
you have had plenty of time to think
it over. Foolish would be that lawyer
who would quickly give a decision
upon any important matter. After
hearing all the statements of his client
the wise lawyer says: “Wait until to
morrow, or next week, and I will tell
you what I believe you ought to do. I
do not wish to answer you without con
sideration. I wish to think this mat
ter over very carefully.” A prominent
lawyer of the west once told me that
when he was preparing a case for court
he spent one half his time thinking of
the arguments which his opponent
might present and then a great part of
the other half planning how to refute
them. And yet the strange fact is that
men and women often, in the moments
of greatest mental excitement, will sit
down and dash off a letter upon the
most important of subjects; without
giving the brain time to cool or the ba‘l-
last of judgment to settle down in the
right equilibrium they will hastily com
mit words to paper which will decide
their whole earthly and perhaps their
heavenly destiny.
If He Had Stopped to Think.
Do you suppose King Darius would
have sent forth that decree, or public
letter, which condemned his premier.
Daniel, to the lions’ den if he had
only stopped to think? Supposing the
king after he had written that public
decree had placed it under his pillow
and slept upon it, what would have
been the result? Would he not natu
rally have scented a fatal conspiracy
in that request? And, my brother, if
you had only waited one or two days
before you sent that important letter
which did you so much harm would
you have sent it? Would you not have
destroyed it? After proper reflec
tion would you not have done exactly
the same as Edwin M. Stanton did un
der similar provocation? One day some
thing went wrong in the war depart
ment. Edwin M. Stanton, with his
mind burning at white heat, imme
diately sat down and wrote a most
vehement denunciation. As soon as he
had written it he took the letter over
to the White House and read it to the
president. Mr. Lincoln listened quietly
until the reader was through. Then he
gently said: “Stanton, that is a fine let
ter. That is the strongest letter I have
ever known you to write. Everything
penned in that letter is absolutely true.
But I would not send it today. I do
not believe in sending anything impor
tant like that quickly. Take that let
ter home and lock it up in your safe
and let your brain cool. Then at the
end of a week take it out and read it
again. Then, if you think best, I will
sign it and send it out over my own
name." In less than one week tbe
overheated volcano of Edwin M. Stan
ton's brain had cooled. Stanton’s com
mon sense came back. He saw the
s.tiding of that letter would be an
egregious error. He took it out from
the safe only long enough to throw it
into the lire. I commend the example
to you. my friend. When you write an
Important letter, lay it aside for awhile
until you have had an opportunity for
mature conslderatlou.
Never write an Important letter
which you would not be willing for the
whole world to see. Many statements
that are perfectly proper and rightly
uiMler^tood by those who know us will
no! Ik* rightly construed if placed be
fore* I la* eyes of the world at large.
There arc many thoughts that I might
write to a friend or a brother which
would la* entirely misinterpreted if
read by an enemy or a stranger. It
Is very important (hat one should nev
er write a letter which would be capa
ble of misconstruction if that letter
should ever fall into the hands of a
bitter foe.
An Admiral** Mlxtnko.
Pertinent illustration: Some years
ago an admiral of the United States
navy was being bitterly assailed by
his enemies, who took from the private
war flh*s a certain letter. In that let
ter he had discussed the principles
which, in his opinion, should govern
promotion in the navy and had insisted
that courage alone did not qualify a
man to be a commanding officer. Re
minding the government how often, as
in the ease of the Franco-Prussian war
of 1870, an act of discourtesy had pre-
cipated a conflict, lie pointed out
that a brave officer lacking education,
training and diplomatic tact might in
volve the nation in serious difficulties.
It was therefore wise in making pro
motions to consider the character and
antecedents of the man. The admi
ral’s advice was sound, but his letter
was published at a time when there
were other questions relating to his
own record under discussion, and it
created a prejudice against him which
conduced to the premature termination
of a brilliant career.
Our political history furnishes a still
more impressive illustration. A series
of letters written by a prominent
statesman were secretly copied from
the business tiles of the man who re
ceived them and were published to tin*
world at a crisis of that statesman’s
career, just at the moment when his
rivals were interested in having the
public put the worst construction upon
them. They were misconstrued and
misrepresented and resulted, twenty
years ago, in the annihilation of tin*
writer’s political aspiration*. Perti
nent illustration the third: The impul
sive letter written by George Washing
ton's most intimate persona, friend in
the army, Colonel Joseph Reed, to Gen
eral Charles Lee. That letter practical
ly destroyed Joseph Reed’s whole fu
ture career. My brother, with such
examples before you, ask yourself if
you can afford to write any letter which
will not bear the test of wholesale pub
licity. However sure you may be of
your letters being safely delivered to
your correspondent, who will rightly
understand them, do not forget that in
the changes of life they may fall into
the hands of malicious and hostile per
sons.
Furthermore, you should not write a
letter which cannot be rightly read by
the whole world at large, because you
do not know how soon the friend to
whom you have written may become
your enemy. Oh, how easy it is to
snap the ties of friendship which bind
human heart to human heart. Broth
ers who once slept in the same cradle
and played in the same nursery and
were the subjects of the same prayers
can become so bitter in their hatred
that they will even fight a mortal com
bat over their parents’ graves. Friends
who once loved as a Jonathan and a
David may come to hate each other as
Cain hated his brother Abel. Then the
friend who has now become the enemy
will nearly always try to destroy you
by the evidence of the unguarded let
ters which you have written in times
of love.
When Friend Turna Upon Friend.
My father used to impress this
thought upon me by the recollections
of an awful night which he passed in
an ordeal of indescribable horrors. A
very near and dear rleative of his was
his intimate associate for many years.
They were to each other as intimate as
brothers. They confided in each other
everything. Time passed on, and there
was a rupture. The friendahip was
broken. What did that relative do?
He immediately took all the letters
which my father had written and hand
ed them over to the newspapers for
publication. The night that my father
heard of the despicable act, as he has
often told me, was the most awful
night of his whole life. He knew that
he had done no wrong, but he was
afraid that in a confidential corre
spondence of many years he might
have written something which in the
eyes of the world might be imprudent.
All that night he tramped the floor.
When the first ray of daylight told that
the dawn was near, he went out to buy
the morning newspaperwhichcontained
the published private correspondence.
He read these published letters in the
street. When he returned, the first words
he said to mother were: “Thank God.
there is nothing compromising that I
have written! Thank God! Thank
God!” That is not the only illustration
which might be given where a friend
has turned upon a friend. Then, my
brother, to either friend or foe alike
never writ anything which may some
day not bt ible to stand the test of
the public print.
Never write a letter with a vengeful
pen, dipped into an Ink well filled with
hatred. When one has been unjustly
attacked, it Is very easy for an in
jured man to say: “I wish I could see
that man. I wish I could give him a
good piece of my mind. I wish I could
tell him In plain, blunt language what
I think of him and his actions. As I
cannot see him, I will Just sit down
and write him a letter.” Then he hasti
ly sits down and writes a Demosthe-
nlan philippic. Vituperations and de-
nunciatiorn, contemptuous excoriation,
stinging navies, bitter epigrams and
whole verbal avalanches of Invective
are gathered together upon the letter
sheet at the pen’s tonch. Then he
rushes away to the poet office and
buys a special delivery stamp. He
pounds it upon the envelope with a
blow that sounds like a foundry in
full blast. Then he goes home, saying
to himself: "There. I have relieved my
self of that matter. I have told that
man just what I think of him and his
actions. If he should ever repeat the
offense, I shall not only write to him
another letter, hut I shall expose his
actions to his employers, his wife, chil
dren and to the public at large.”
The Itevenereful Letter.
Now, my friend, in-one sense it may
ease your mind to write a revengeful
letter, but what good does such a letter
do? Does it make your enemy feel
any kinder or more gentle to you?
Does such a letter ever make a man
feel any kinder or more gentle to the
great world at large? Have you made
him a hotter man? Ha^ ■* you made
yourself a better man also? In fact,
in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred
does not such a letter damage your
neighbor and also do more damage to
the sender than it does to the man to
whom the letter Is sent? I once read
of an eastern tyrant who wanted to
destroy an enemy. He invited this en
emy to sup with him. While they sat
at meat he had the waiter bring in two
glasses of wine, the one poisoned and
the other not. But when the king of
fered to his guest a cup he (the king)
by mistake took and drank the poi
soned cup. Like the king, is it not al
ways the case when a man writes a
purely revengeful letter that he is hurt
more in the sending than the enemy is
In the receiving? Did not the officers
of state prepare their own death war
rant when they persuaded Darius to
send forth the pifblic decree by which
they hoped to destroy the prime min
ister?
Never write a letter without realiz
ing that in it you have the mightiest
opportunities of testifying for Jesus
Christ. We have all studied the far-
rea'diing effect in a literary sense of
letter writing. The private corre
spondence between individuals tills
some of the brightest and the most
interesting books of literature. The
love letters of Elizabeth Barrett and
Robert Browning, tbe tender words
which were sent east and west across
the Atlantic ocean when Thomas Car
lyle, the mighty sage of English let
ters, and Ralph Waldo Emerson, the
gentle sage of Concord, corresponded;
the letters of Robert Louis Stevenson
to bis friends, scattered all over the
world; the letters of Cicero and of tin*
younger Pliny, letters of Julius C;esar
to the Emperor Constantine and letters
of Sidonlus Apolllnaris—these letters
are the more fascinating because, like
the mountain streams, they sparkle
under the overhanging evergreens of
the affections. They were murmur
ing for the most part into the ears of
only one nightingale and moistening
the throat of but one songster or song
stress.
Many have studied the effect of let
ter writing in a political sense. We
know the power of Samuel Adams’
pen in fomenting Revolutionary strife.
We know that Alexander Hamilton's
pen, by the power of public letter
writing, defeated Aaron Burr for the
gubernatorial chair of New York state
and caused him to challenge Hamilton
to a deadly duel. We know how
George Washington by letter writing
after his retirement from the presiden
tial chair praciically directed national
legislation. We know how the famous
“Letters of Junius,” written against
the British ministry, mightily changed
the reading upon the pages of English
history. And if we are able to study
the influence of letter writing in a lit
erary and political sense can we not
study its influence in a spiritual sense?
Letter* From a Mother.
Let us first see the spiritual influence
of letter writing in your own life.
Strange to say. you do not remember
much about your mother's life. I mean
as you sit there you have forgotten
exactly how she looked and the tone of
her voice. She has been dead many
years. Then you have forgotten to a
great extent her words of advice in the
home, but you have never forgotten
her letters. Somehow, after you left
home, the words which she wrote to
you made a far greater impression than
the words which she spoke. If I should
go into your home and ask for your
most valuable collection of papers you
would in all probability show me a
collection of old yellow letters. They
were written by her band. You have
read them over and over again. Some
of those letters are stained as though
the children had spattered water upon
them. They are stained with your
tears as well as perhaps with hers.
The gospel advice In those letters
which you were able to read in the
quietude of your own room is today
the sweetest lesson that your mother
ever taught. What has been true In
reference to your life is also true in
mine. The greatest lesson that my fa
ther taught me was not by the lip, but
with the pen. Though I had lived
with him for eighteen years he never
so overwhelmingly affected me as on
the day I left for college. He placed
In my hand a letter. He told me to
read It In the train. In this letter, on
one half sheet of paper, he wrote these
words: “In college you will find two
groups: Group the first, boys who go
to college because their fathers send
them there. Boys who drink and
smoke and who cheat at their examina
tions. Failure. Group the second,
boys who go to college to prepare for
life’s struggle; boys who study hard
and go to church and the prayer meet
ing, especially the prayer meeting. Suc
cess. ‘Them that honor me, I will hon
or. And they that despise me shall be
lightly esteemed.’ ” That was all he
wrote, but those written words, far
more than any spoken words my father
ever uttered, burned themselves into
my Innermost being. That letter of his
illustrated the power of a spiritual pen.
wielded in a Christian home.
But why circumscribe this thought
within the four walls of a home? The
spiritual power of gospel letter writing
is seen everywhere that it has been
tried. To what could Maltbie Bab
cock’s wonderful spiritual Influence be
mostly attributed? He was without
doubt one of the most successful min
isters in the American pulpit at the
time of his death. To his marvelous
and yet simple eloquence, which Sun
day after Sunday crowded tbe* famous
Brick church of Now York city to tb<*
doors? No, not chiefly. To his sweet
and winsome personality in person:’!
contact? No, not principally. T! ’
greatest part of his influence was \y< \
by the power of personal letter wr
ing. One of his old classmates and
most intimate friends told me that Dr.
Babcock never let a member of b s
congregation get out of his reach. IF*
kept a book filled with dates. On the
birthdays of his boys at college he
would drop them each a short letter,
telling them to Improve their oppor
tunities and how much their parents
and pastor were thinking and praying
for them. On the sad anniversary of
the deatli of children he would drop a
sympathetic note to the broken hearted
parents, telling them how thankful
they ought to be that their little ones
have now been able to spend one or
two years in heaven, telling them how
happy they ought to be that the part
ings would not now be very long.
When the anniversary of a young girl’s
advent into the church came, he would
drop her a letter, hoping that her year
of faith in Christ had been a happy
year. In this way Dr. Babcock reached
out everywhere and bound his people
to him with links of steel. By this sys
tem of simple gospel letter writing the
late pastor of the Brick church was
able to make his Christian influence
felt all over America. My brother and
sister, you and I have wasted many a
glorious opportunity for gospel letter
writing. Will you not here and now
consecrate your pen to do for Jesus
what you can? Will you not conse
crate the pen as well as the voice and
the sense of touch? Remember, Paul’s
epistles were only Paul’s gospel letters,
written to bis absent friends. We by
the power of gospel letter writing can
accomplish on a smaller scale what the
tired traveling missionary by his pen
did on a hemispheric scale.
lull in*not* of n Gonpel Pen.
Oh, the infinite Influence of a gospel
pen! Infinite in reference to time!
Some of us have seen the Assyrian
histories written upon the slabs of
burnt brick by pens thousands upon
thousands of years ago. We have seen
leaves of grass upon which the Greeks
used to engrave their laws, and the
shoulder blades of a dead sheep’s skel
eton upon which the ancient Arabs
used to write poetry. The sides of the
Egyptian obelisks are covered with
hieroglyphics of the ancients. The
first pen wielded by man was a chisel,
and the first leaf was a sheet of solid
rock. But, though such writings may
last hundreds and thousands of years,
yet they will not last as long as the
gospel words written upon the human
heart by a gospel pen. Such words
shall last long after this earth is dead
and our souls have passed cycles of
eternity in heaven. Infinite in refer
ence to wonders accomplished! In our
national museums some of us have
seen pens worth a thousand times
more than their weight in gold. They
are the pens that have been held in
the hands of presidents and kings—
pens of peace or of war. pens of libera
tion or enslavement, pens which decid
ed the material advancement or re
tardment of nations. But the sacred
pen of gospel letter writing may l>e
even greater in its fnrreaching results.
It may he the means for the liberation
of immortal souls from sin, for their
coronation in the heavenly redemption.
Thus, in closing, I would impress up
on you all the Influence of a consecrat
ed pen. May you learn to use for God
aright that pen which ns a schoolboy
you once held in your chubby fingers
when it would sputter and twist and
try to squirm out of your hands. Use
aright that pen by which as a young
man you used to record the secrets of
your heart when the old, old story of
love became a new story to you In the
springtime. Learn to use aright for
Christ that same pen with which you
have again and again written a name
upon a black bordered envelope. Use
aright that pen with which you made
a last will and testament, and use
aright that pen with which you can
win Immortal souls to Jesus Christ In
the gospel invitation of private corre
spondence.

Ruaaian Peasant Women.
By a newly enacted Russian law a
peasant’s wife, on showing to the dis
trict judge of instruction that she is
habitually ill treated by her husband
or that he will not support her and
makes her the drudge for his own sup
port, can demand a separate passport,
with which she is at liberty to leave
her oppressor and earn a living else
where. Hitherto there ^vas no possi
ble redress or release for the long suf
fering victim so long as It was obliga
tory that the wife’s name was entered
in the husband’s passport and papers
of legitimation. Any one at all Inti
mately acquainted with village life in
Russia will readily appreciate the re
lief this brings to tens of thousands of

abused domestic slaves and beasts of

Gentlemen:—I have^bad eczema
over thirty years, have tried many
remedies prescribed by various physi
cians, but to nothing has the disease
yielded so quickly as to Liquid Sul
phur. I think if used properly it is
undoubtedly a specific for eczema.
I have prescribed it for others with
most satisfactory results. I consider
it the best remedy for cutaneous
affections I have ever known, and re
gard >t as the greatest medical dis
covery of the age.
Respectfully yours,
