One Minute Cough Cura For Coughs, Colds and Croup* •ffSr- Early RImp* Chicago, Sept 20.—At this season, i when the great army of teachers take up their tasks in our schools, colleges and universities, many of them for the first time, this sermon is peculiarly and widely appropriate. The text Is Matthew xl. 21), “Learn of me.” The school-house is the gieat rescr- | voir, iu which are collected the streams of knowledge which have flowed down from the ages. It Is the place where scholars can climb upon the broad shoulders of the intell«M:-tual giants of the past and the present and see as far as they have seen, because those shoulders are lifting those students’ heads toward the stars. It is the place in which man is taught how to harness the winds and lasso the eh*c- | tricity and tap the oil wells and con tribute to tlie common wealth and de velopment of his brother man, so that all working together may cause the “desert to blossom as the rose.” “What is the cause of nil f'ose fine farms, big barns and immense granaries? Why this thrift and prosperity every where?” I oneo asked a Pennsylvania farmer when bicycling through Lan caster county. “The school-house,” be replied. “You cannot go anywhere in this part of the state without find ing the public school-house at almost | every crossroads tind the small college in almost every town of any size.” “What is the cause of your dilapidated farms and the slothfuluess and filth I see everywhere around me?” I asked another farmer that same spring In a region a few hundred miles from the one the prosperity of which prompted my first question. “To the absence of the school-house,” was the answer. "Most of our people are ignorant and uneducated. What is more, most of our people do not want to learn; neither do they wish their children to learn.” Against such a wal. of oppo sition as that it is almost impossible for intellectual progress to make any true headway. A I?*‘i»re*entattve Term. We would eulogize that compound word of eleven letters called the “school-house.” But, after all, the “school-house” is merely a representa tive term. Its true value is not in the intrinsic worth of the bricks and stones and wood which compose its buildings; it is In the spiritual and in tellectual worth of the men and the women who stand behind its teachers’ desks. Students from far and near came to sit at the feet of Hillel and his famous grandson Gamaliel, al though for the most part those teachers had no buildings of any worth. Plato was the disciple of Socrates and the teacher of Aristotle, who is the founder of the academic school famous the world round, yet for the most part these men had the street corners for their classrooms and the hillsides for their laboratories. They were poor in pocket, though rich in brains. The name of Thomas Arnold has given Rugby its greatest fame. Tlie name of Eliphalet Nott is the most priceless heritage Union college at Schenectady ever received. The name of Mark Hopkins is of more value to Williams college than an endowment of $5,000,- 000 could ever be. With my own eyes, as a student, I saw that great educator, then eighty-four years of age, leaving our college town to attend the Harvard centennial. Seated upon the rostrum at Harvard on that great occasion were the president of the United States and senators and governors and leaders in the various walks of life. But when Mark Hopkins, old Williams’ pride, slowly ascended the platform the whole audience rose en masse and bowed. That homage was a tribute to the fact that the skilled workman is greater than his factory; that the teacher is of more importance than the school-house in which he stands. The Divine Teacher is our theme. If we have not yet learned the value of Jesus Christ as an instructor, then let us learn it now in the command of my text. Jesus in these three words re corded in Matthew emphasizes the great fact that from him, and him alone, we can learn the gospel lessons we ought to learn. Thus today I would , grasp the ropes of the village school- ; house and the city church Indls as the i college sexton holds his bell rope, and as I pull and the church bells swing backward and forward and the silver ■ otes of these bells go echoing down t!i * valleys until they plunge up against the sounding boards of the hills I would I cry as a gospel minister: “Come to school! Come to school! All ye who would learn of Jesus, come to school, come to school!” Is not this the mean ing of my text, “Learn of me?” The Gonpel ClaaMroom. The gospel classroom. In the first place, has in Christ an authoritative teacher. I invite you with confidence to sit at his foot because he has a right to teach. He speaks not only because as u human being he has learned what we ought to learn, but he comes cloth ed with divine authority. His creden tials are higher than those of any hu man teacher. They proceed from God himself. He Is the Son and the eo- tqiial of God the Father. He comes to us as a «onqueror clothed In white vesture, "and on hie thigh a name written, King of kings and Lord of lords.” “For lie taught them as one having authority and not as the scribes.” In this age of Intellectual progress II Is absolutely essential for every trm teacher, whether of the higher or tin lower grades, to have his or her ere dentin is. For instance, if l wish to ed ucate one of my little girls to be a pub lic school teacher 1 say to her: “Now. daughter, your future life occupation depends entirely upon yourself and your work. 1 am going to send you through the common public school. I believe every child should go there, be she rich or poor, black or white, Jew or gentile or Catholic. In order to pro duce the best types of American citi zenship all classes of children should stand shoulder to shoulder and hand in hand at the school desk. Then 1 will send you to the high school, then to the normal. Then, when you have your different diplomas, you can go before the state board or county board of examiners and have your knowledge tested. Then, if you pass, your teach er’s certificates will be given you. But. daughter, you cannot teach in any pub lic school unless you are an authorita tive teacher—unless you have your cre dentials. Without them you cannot even be a cadet or a substitute for a day.” All the 5,775 teachers of Chicago who faced the 208.392 scholars of Cook county last year were prepared for an instructor’s life in this way. 1 ask the professor of geology in some great university what right he has to occupy a teacher’s chair. “I have been appointed,” he answers, “by the beads of the university with the j approval of the faculty. I have demon strated my fitness to teach by the text books I have written. I have studied I the strata of the rocks. I have sat at the foot of the greatest masters of the science. I hold diplomas from domes tic and foreign universities. These are my credentials.” So Christ enters the gospel classroom as a teacher, clothed with authority. The wisdom of the godhead was given to him. In the counsels of eternity he learned the mysteries of the divine government. He became man, and by a career that is the wonder of the ages he has taught bis people bow to live. These are his credentials. An Anthoritutive T«-iicher. Now, my friends, as gospel students, are you ready to accept Jesus Christ as an authoritative teacher? Are you ready to accept him as the Son of God? A few weeks ago a gentleman wrote to a friend of mine a pathetic letter, which went something like this: “Ob, why do the ministers keep on preaching upon useless and impractical subjects? Why do they not preach upon some of the vital questions of the soul? A short time ago the doctors told me that with in six months I must die. What I want to know is how 1 can straighten out a wasted life so as to meet my God.” Well, my brother, if these words should ever bo seen by your eye or re peated to your ear, the first step for you to take is to accept Jesus as the Divine Teacher. You are not to ac cept him as did Joseph Ernest Renan, “as a good man.” You must not accept him as do many, as a religious leader like Mohammed or Buddha or Zoroas ter or Confucius. You are not to accept him as a seer or prophet, a John the Baptist, an Elias or a Jeremiah. You arc to accept him as did Simon Peter when he turned and said, “Thou art Christ, the Son of the Living God.” Are you ready to accept the authorita tive Jesus as divine? Oh, the credentials of the teacher, Christ! In the prophecies of Scripture we can read them. In the miracles which he performed we can verify them. In the testimony of John the Baptist and In the Heavenly Father's voice, which sounded over the dripping locks of the Son of Coil when Christ was baptized, we can prove them, Christ’s credentials are of the highest authority. They must be accepted. Napoleon was one day riding along the lines of the French army, when his horse shied. Instantly a common sol dier leaped forth from the ranks and saved his commander from being thrown. Napoleon smiled at his res cuer and said, “Thank you, captain.” Duick as a flash the soldier saluted and asked Ids chief, “Of what regiment, sin*?” The delighted emperor replied, “Of my own guards.” Ho then rode on. With that the soldier threw away his gun and stepped over to where the staff ollicers of the guards were collect ed. Indignantly those ollicers ordered him back to the ranks. With that the new made captain raised his head as he answered, “I am no longer a private soldier; I am a captain of the emper or’s guards.” “By what authority do you make su«h a statement?” asked the colonel. Then the soldier pointed to ward the retreating form of his ruler as he answered, “Napoleon said it!” Ah, after that there was no further criticism. Napoleon was the authority. Napoleon was to give him his creden tials. So Christ, as the authoritative teacher, comes to us with his creden tial^. The Father, the Heavenly Father, hath spoken it. Witness the Jordanlc revelation: “Behold n light cloud over shadowed them, and behold a voice out of the cloud which said, “This Is my Son in whom I am well pleased. Hear ye him.” Authoritatively! Christ always speaks authoritatively. The gospel classroom. In the next place, has a self sacrificing teacher. The word “self sacrificing” can well be applied to all true men and women who Follow the noble profession of teaching. I care not whether those men and women are filling conspicuous pro fessional chairs, as did William Gra ham Sumner, and John Russell Bart lett, and Julius H. Seeley, and Joseph Storey, and Theodore W. Dwight, and Mrs. Mary Somerville, and Elizabeth Stewart Phelps, and Alice Freeman Palmer, and Mary Lyon, or whether they are teaching In humble district schools; they are all people who sacri- fi,oe themselves for the good of others. There is no business or profession on earth In which there is more wear and tear upon the nervous system than up on those conscientious men and wom en who, week In and week out, spend their lives expounding and explaining and catechising behind a teacher's desk. Just think of the fractious human colts the average public school teacher has to train. A great many parents ! send their children to school in order to got rid of them as well as to have their brains developed. They cannot stand the boy’s racket at borne, so they ex- |K»et the public teacher to supply the neglected maternal discipline. God pity the young graduate of the normal school, who herself is hardly old enough to be a mother, and yet has to keep in line every day thirty or forty boys and girls, most of whom hare not yet learned what the word “obedience” means! Then estimate the thickness of the skull which every year the teacher has to pry open to let in the intellec tual light. It must be a great pleasure for the teacher, who is a genius, to de velop a genius; for a Lord Chatham to have for his disciple a William Pitt; for a Franz Liszt to guide the fingers of an Anton Rubinstein over the ivory keys; for an Ignatius Loyola to mold a Francis Xavier; for a Peter Paul Ru bens to have for bis pupil an Anthony Vandyke. One day, after having ex amined some of his famous student’s work, the great Flemish master delight edly turned to his class and said: “A greater than Rubens is here! The young man whose brush lias done this will some day outmaster bis master.” But. though it may be a great pleasure for a genius to develop a genius, yet ninety-nine hundredths of all scholars In all public school classrooms are gen- lust's. They are not only children of ordinary intelligence, but boys and girls, many of them below the ordinary. All of those scholars must be develop ed. This accounts for the teacher's ex haustion. Then the strain. Then often complete nervous collapse. But, oh, my brother, what is the sac rifice of an earthly teacher for tier pu pils compared to that which the Divine Teacher has made for us? Is there any patience like unto bis patience? Any forgiveness greater than his forgive ness? Any martyrdom like unto his martyrdom? During the life of the late Thomas Gallaudet, that noble Christ- like teacher sent by God to serve the American deaf mutes, he often spent days and weeks and months over one pupil teaching him bow to pronounce a single vowel sound. But great as Dr. Ga Hamlet's sacrifices were can bis pa tience lie compared to my Lord’s? As a Divine Teacher has not Christ spent years and years and years trying to teach us how to speak just two words in the* right way, “Our Father?” We read how the missionary teachers have been martyred in China in the defense of their pupils. But was there ever a de*atb of a teacher like unto that of the martyrd an of my Christ? In order to teach us bow to attain eternal life has he* not sacrificed for us in his wounded hands and wounded feet and wounde*d head and gaping side, into which the Roman soldier thrust his spear? Yes. My Lord and my God is a self sacrific ing teacher. He* gave his life for his gospel students. Ho died that we might live. CliriHt'M Greater IMirpoae, But the Divine Teacher Christ has a far greater purpose than to merely save ids gospel students. He teaches Ids disciples, who sit at his feet in or der that they may become like him, how they in turn may carry bis mes sage and truth to the farthermost parts of the earth. He looks upon Ids stu dents with respect to their future, as every true instructor ought to do. I once read of a famous teacher who never entered Ids classroom but he al ways took off bis hat and bowed be fore Ids scholars as though he was coming into the presence of a king, “for,” he said, “no one knows what future ruler or leader of the people may Ik* developing under my touch. Therefore* I wish to show my students proper respect.” Christ in the same way is looking at his gospel students through the eyes of prophecy. He is the Divine Instructor, who teaches his disciple? that through them we may learn the way of life. He is teaching Ids disciples in order that the count less multitudes, groping about in the darkness of heathendom, may through us be brought into saving touch with the cross. To duplicate the teacher’s knowledge and life in the lives of his students is always the far reaching puipose of true teaching. Why did General Samuel Chapman Armstrong found the Hamp ton school near Old Point Comfort, and why was that other Indian school es tablished In Carlisle, Pa.? It was in order to take the Indian boys and girls from the far west to the east, there to bring them into touch with the white man’s teachers and the white man’s some sinful and some lost soul to whom otherwise it may never he sent at all. I'or flic WenL mid Ilolplean. We have often read how heroic deeds in martial life have saved an army for j an earthly king. Can we not realize how our deeds as the representatives of Christ can draw men to or drive them away from the cross? Many years ago a French army was battling under the hot and blasting Algerian .sun. The forced marches and the coun ter marches which that army was com pelled to take were enough to kill an | African negro, let alone a European. Then in order to increase the horror fatal cholera broke out in one regi ment. Man after man died. The army became panic stricken, and all seemed to ’no lost. But one night Colonel Gar- j darCns wanted to prove that this | dreaded disease was contagions “whol ly through food and drink and in no other way.” So he himself lifted one of the cholera corpses out of its lied. Then he turned to his men and said: “Now I will show you that cholera is not infectious. I will pass the night in this man’s bed.” He raised the bed clothes and lay down and slept. In the morning he awoke, arose and de parted to bis own quarters a well man. That power of a personal example in spired his men. They took heart. The French army was saved. My friends, our examples as representatives of Je sus Christ must exert the same kind of good or bad influence that Colonel Gardarens had over his men. As gos pel students we must duplicate Christ’s life or we must misrepresent him. We 1 shall load sinful men and women to his altar or drive them farther away. “We are the light of the world.” “We are the salt of the earth.” “We are the cit ies set upon a bill which cannot be hid.” As gospel students we are Christ’s representatives, Christ’s wit nesses. and we cannot help it. But where as Christian disciples shall we build Christ’s future class rooms? Everywhere. In them must be gathered the old and the young, the rich and the poor, the white and the black, the Jew, the gentile. For them the applications for membership do not need the indorsement of a wealthy man’s check. They are not restricted to a social caste, as is the famous pri vate school near 8t. Petersburg, which was established only for the sons and daughters of the men who are the fa vorites of the Russian czar. Did I say the future gospel classrooms must be built for all people alike? I misquoted ; myself. They must he especially built i for the poor and the helpless and the weak and the lame and the blind and the outcasts, social and spiritual. The : command is given unto us in emphatic terms, “Go ye out into the highways j and the hedges and compel them to come in.” These are the words Christ uses, “Compel, compel, compel them to come in.” A Mevsniffc to the World. What a message it is that the stu dents in Christ’s school are commis sioned to deliver to the world! It trans forms the whole aspect of life. This world, in the light of our Lord’s teach ing, is no longer the scene of meaning less suffering, of useless struggle and ; inevitable disappointment. It is a scene of preparation, of discipline, of education, in the highest sense of the word, for a larger, fuller life. As the children who are now assembling in our school-houses are being prepared for a manhood and womanhood of use ful service, so the men and women in Christ’s school have reached a higher grade. They, too, are being educated and trained for a grander career. The lessons are hard to learn, the discipline Is often painful. But we go to our tusks with a brave heart when we dis cover that there is a purpose in it all. We can bear hardship and persecution and aliliction when we know that they are developing in us qualities which we shall need in a better world than this. Thus trials come to us with new faces. We can understand now our Divino Teacher’s inaugural message: “Blessed are they that mourn;” “Blessed are they who hunger and thirst,” for un der bis blessed teaching we have learn ed that “all things work together for good to them that love God.” Thus, my Christian friends, by the words of my text, I open to you a life of endless gospel activity. First, as a student, you are to come into touch with Jesus. You are to be like your great Divine Master. This will not be very difficult if you will only come near enough to Christ, if you will only live in Ills presence day by day. It has often been said among the alumni of Williams college that each student who ever lived under the influence of Thousands Hare Kidney Trouble and Don’t Know it. How To Find Out. Fill a bottle or common glass with your water and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sediment or set tling indicates an unhealthy condi tion of the kid neys; if it stains your linen it is evidence of kid ney trouble; too frequent desire to pass it or pain in the back is also convincing proof that the kidneys and blad der are out of order. What to Do. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp- Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passage. It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extra ordinary effect of Swamp-ftoot is soon realized. It stands the highest for its won derful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best.

Murk Hopkins had a distinctive stamp ways and then to send those Indian pi a( . et ] upon him which marked him boys back to their tribes in the hope ag a “jjopkinsite.” 80 If you live near back to their tribes in the that the civilized red man would in turn civilize his brothers and sisters. Why does Booker T. Washington’s work have the hearty support of the white men both of the north and the south? Because he is trying to duplicate ills plain, common sense, practical life in the lives of ids students. He is not trying to teach the doctrine that the white and the black races should in termarry. He is the apostle preaching that life means work; that the black race will never lift itself by political agitations, but only by its members be- lug good waiters and coachmen and honest laborers aud provident fanners and intelligent wives and mothers. He is preaching “the gospel of the tooth- bmsh.” He does not believe a man, colored or white, can be respectable and he chronically dirty. Such is the duplicating purpose of Alabama’s fore most negro educator. Now, my friends, Jesus Christ ns a divine teacher should have a duplicating power in the lives of his students. It should be found in the lives of his professing disciples, in the lives of some of us who have been crowding the gospel classroom for the last ten, twenty—yes, even thirty and ; forty years. Christ’s duplicating pow- j er should Ik? found In ns. because through us the gospel must be sent to to Jesus you will have his stamp upon you. You will become Cbrlstlike; you will become “good,” or like God. You will not, as did the ignorant country boy, copy a ebromo stamped on a daily newspaper page and call that “art.” You will be as one who studies a great original masterpiece. Your model will be Jesus. Intuitively, consciously and unconsciously, by walking in bis pres ence you will absorb bis personality in your life. The second purpose of this text Is to send you forth as gospel evangelists. You are to go up and down the street and preach everywhere the sweet sto ry of Jesus. You are to do this because if you are true gospel students you will as naturally talk about your Divine Teacher as a .bird hatched under a songstress’ wing will sing; as a seed dropped from a rosebush will develop into a rose; as a dewdrop first touched of the morning sun will sparkle like a diamond; as a dying sunset will gild the overhanging clouds with passemen teries of gold. May this sermon be the means under the power of the Holy Spirit to lead you Into the gospel class room. May It also be the means of sending you forth, one and all, as gos pel teachers.
