. By Rev.
Frank De Witt Taimatfe. D. D.
Los Augelrs, Cal., June 19.—Not in
the literal but in tin* ligurntlve sense i
do«-s the preacher deal with this un
usual text by drawing the broad dis
tinction between tin* life that is in
spired by a love of all that is noble and
pure and one that has become degraded
and brutal through the indulgence of
seltish passions. The text is Itevela- ;
tion xxii. 15, “Without are dogs.”
“I never could sympathize with the
slur which the Bible casts upon my
canine friends,” once said an old man
to me. "St. John in that passage of
Scripture, ‘Without are dogs,’ seems to
despise the dog as I despise the buz
zard or the hyena, lie seems to pic
ture the Infernal regions as the only
suitable place for their kennels. He
Insinuates their companionship for
man to be a humiliation and a degra- ^
dation. Now, in contrast to that as
sertion, I have far more respect for an
honest dog than 1 have for a dishonest,
Jeceitful man. I count among my dear
est friends some of the representatives
of the canine race. Indeed I go so far
In my respect for dogs that if in that
heavenly land I found one of the beau
tiful dogs I have owned on earth sleep
ing at my feet in that abode of bliss
or looking up into my face with the
expression of love and fidelity I have
seen so often I should not feel it any
blight, but rather an enhancement of
my happiness.”
I could understand my friend’s feel
ing, and I love dogs well enough to
sympathize with It. There are no
grounds for believing In a future life
for animals, but I confess that if in the
boundless love of God we should find
that even for the faithful dog there
was a paradise I for one should re
joice. 1 have that affection that Sir
Walter Scott had for the canine race,
and I always feel a sense of compan
ionship when a dog is dozing in my
study. As a boy I delighted to have
a canine companion in my rambles, and
to this day I feel, as Bismarck used to
say, that no man should despise the
friendship of dogs or need hesitate to
confide in them some of his innermost
thoughts and secrets. When we are
rambling over the hills or in our city
walks and my dog friends stop and
listen to what I say I am always sure
of one fact- that they will not betray
my confidence as I have known some
men to do. "Yes, yes,” 1 said to my
aged friend, “like you, I have always
loved the dog; but, unlike you, I do not
believe the Bible really depreciates the
• faithfulness of a good dog." This pas
sage of Scripture, “Without are dogs,”
Is not casting a slur upon the dog. It
Is not sneering at the ancestors of some
of those noble beasts belonging to the
royal families of dogs which we have
adopted Into our homes as honored
habitues of our firesides. The seer of
Patinos had never seen such dogs as
ours. The dogs with which he was fa
miliar were such homeless, carrion eat
ing dogs as those which to this day
roam the narrow streets of Jeru
salem and Damascus, degraded curs,
whose presence would have been de
filing to that beautiful city which he
saw in vision. Therefore it is to the
eastern dog, homeless and friendless,
which I have so often seen in my
travels and by whose bowlings I have
been awakened at night and have
watched while standing upon the ho
tel porch of the far east, when he says
with evident gratification, “Without
are dogs.”
The Quarrelsome Were Excluded.
But I believe the apostle had a fur
ther and deeper meaning than this. I
think he meant that the qualities
which the dog represented to ids mind
were excluded from the heavenly city.
Selfishness, degradation, quarrelsome
ness, all that rendered dogs hateful to
the Jews of the orient, whether in
beast or man, were outside those
heavenly walls. And, first, I believe
he meant that in heaven there would
be neither physical nor mental mon
strosities. It is to be u place where
there would be a perfect mind in har
mony with a perfect body and the per
fect soul in every way shall have per
fect externalities. There are some men
so degraded with their vices that their
very forms and features have become
repulsive. They bear the same rela
tion to good living, intelligent men that
the oriental dogs bear to our house
hold pets.
We love to look at the masterpieces
of Sir Edwin Landseer, the painter of
dogs. There seems to be something
even more than human in his “High
land Shepherd’s Ghief Mourner,” some
thing more than mere brute ferocity In
bis "Stag at Bay," something more
than a sportsman’s halloo in the “Re
turn From Deerstalking.” But the
flashing eyed, powerful chested, clean
limbed, glossy coated models of Land
seer are entirely different physical
specimens from the outcast dogs of the
east. Have you ever stopped and look
ed with pity upon a poor mangy cur
crawling along the street? Have you
seen disease like porcupine quills stick
ing out all over him? Have you seen
the people shy off as he came along
and heard the passersby say: "Poor
dog! Why do not the dog catchers
come along and put him out of his
misery?” Have you ever seen dogs
with their ears torn off and their tails
amputated by some carriage wheel or
hopping upon three legs bemuse the
fourth has been cruelly broken by a
stone? Well, there are lots of such
dogs in the east. There ^re hundreds
and thousands of those poor, miserable,
physical mutilations that cower in the
dark eorm rs of the Palestine cities or
sun themselves upon the hard stones
like the blind or the crippled beggars
who there seem to be everywhere. And
so when St. John declares, "Without
are dogs,” I believe he means that in
heaven we shall have no blinded eyes,
no diseased skins, no crippled limbs,
no deaf ears and no physical disfigure
ments. All the hideous physical sights
which one sees in the wards of the
hospitals shall ire forever done away,
rhysim! Infirmity Hnrd to Uear.
How much this transformation means
to many sufferers none but they can
realize. It is very hard for the de
formed and tin* crippled to maintain
spiritual and mental sweetness and
serenity. It is easy for a man with a
fine constitution and a perfect physical
form to be cheerful and happy, but
how difficult for one who has to suffer
continual pain and Is shut out by de
formity from the sports and exercises
of companions to be sweet tempered
and genial to all about him. “What is
tin? matter with So-and-so?” I once
asked a dear friend of mine about a
mutual acquaintance. “He is so touchy
and sensitive that the least wind from
the east will twist him all out of
shape.” “Yes,” answered my friend,
“that is true, but perhaps you have
forgotten that that man was born
lame. If you e.er stop to think, you
will also find that nearly all men and
women born with physical Infirmities
are cross and crabbed and touchy and
sensitive.” "I never thought of It,” I
answered. “I believe—yes, I know you
are right.” Physical infirmity Is ac
companied by and. In fact. Involves
mental pain and anguish. All this will
be done away with in the celestial city.
There will be no defects or deformi
ties there to sadden the soul and try
the temper of the redeemed. The with-
quick eyed and sharp clawed lynx must
fall In time before a mortal foe. Every
monster leader of the elephantine herd,
every shaggy maned Bengal king,
must die a violent death. So dies the
dog; but. thank God, so does not die the
Christian.
Sometimes 'tis true that the body of j
man may die the death of a dog, but i
the Christian has hope in his death, i
Though his body perish In battle or in
accident, though it may be crushed or
burned, so that it cannot be recognized,
his soul is safe. He has the conscious
ness that Christ is able to keep that
which has been committed to him and
whatever may befall the body the sou*
will be preserved.

W'bat is the Johatiuian meaning of
this mortal combat between the tribal
dugs of the east? Why, It means that
in heaven there are to be no family
meannesses, no contemptible, merciless
ways such as are often found at the
earthly fireside. It means that Instead
of one father and one mother gather

The cripple will rejoice that the gnaw

Let me illustrate my thought in an

of a healthy mind and soul. Here is a

first little girl came into my home. You tals.

the lexicons of earth shall be forever

look in wonderment upon that child.
For weeks and months you go among
your friends boasting about that baby.
"Why,” you say. "that is the most per
feet dispositioned child I ever knew.
She never cries. She is always smiling
and cooing. 8he never awakens us at
night. She is as happy as a sunbeam
Why do I make these two astounding
statements? First, because I find re
corded in tin* eighth chapter of Revela
tion the startling fact that “there was
silence in heaven about the space of
half an hour.” If heaven was always
a still place would St. John have writ
ten that sentence In reference to the
creeping into our bislroom in the early , day of Judgment. If you would inter-
morning.” But after that little child
has been In your home eight or ten
months suddenly her nature seems to
undergo a radical change. The hot
hand of fe er touches her forehead.
The red marks blotch her fair skin.
Baked and twisted with pain, she cries
all the day and most of the night, and
even in her sleep she continually ut
ters a low, moaning whine. What is
the matter? Has the child’s disposi
tion changed? Oh, no. The physical
body has become diseased, and now the
mind Is fretting in sympathy. Thus
we find that a perfect body Is apt to
have a perfect mind and an Imperfect
body an Imperfect mind. So when St.
John says, “Without are dogs,” I be
lieve be means that In heaven we shall
have no physical Infirmities, no club
foot like Lord Byron, no gnarled and
twisted nervous organization like Alex
ander Pope, no blinded eyes like John
Milton, no deaf ears like Beethoven, no
skin leprous and covered with sores.
It shall be physically a “dogless heav
en.” Ob, my brother, thank God for
the perfect physical bodies of the resur
rection !
The Howl of Warning.
Roaming again through the crowded
streets of Palestine, I find that the
same merciless tribal bitterness and
mortal enmities which were once rife
among the North American Indians arc
prevalent among the dogs of the east.
As each Indian tribe owned its own
territory and In time of war It meant
death for a member ol oue tribe to be
found wandering about In the “land of
strangers,” so the dogs of the east take
possession of the different streets of
the great cities. Each canine tribe has
Its sentinels standing guard at the end
of the streets. Then If one dog of an
other tribe enters that street the howl
of warning Is given. At once all the
other dogs of that tribe leap to their
feet and, as a pack of hungry wolves,
make a mad rush for that stranger to
tear him limb from limb.
We must study my text In the canine
language of the east. Old hunters tell
us that no man has truly heard a lion
roar unless he has heard the king of
the forest sound his call of defiance
iu the dark Jungles of the African con-
tlnent. Then the awo striking power
of that voice seems to come from ev
erywhere and yet from nowhere. The
hills are sounding boards which toss
the echoes us the battledoors throw
the shuttlecocks backward and for
ward. Then the fawns squat down
with fright, and the mother birds press
lower upon their nests, and the very
leave* of the trees seem too terror
stricken to move. Like the roaring
Hons la the African forests are the
bowlings of the dogs In the streets of
Damascus and Jerusalem. When one
canine tribe plunges upon a dog of an
other tribe which wanders into their
street or territory it seems as though
all the demoniacal voices of the Infer
nal regions are let loose. First there
comes the sharp, angry bark, as though
the picket line of a great army had
fired u gun to call the host to arms,
then mattered growls, then the fright
ened bark of the pursued dog, then a
M*ry pandemonium of barkings and
growllngH and angry, snarling canine
voices. They awake the sleeping tour-
pret that passage In a common sense
way would you not practically say,
“Why. heaven is such a busy place that
all the angels and archangels and re
deemed Immortals are working, and
working all the time? But when St.
John saw the books of the Judgment
opened then there was an awful still
ness. Every winged messenger kept
still, every work ceased, every occupa
tion was suspended.” As Albert Barnes
Interpreted this passage, “Then there
was an awful stillness, as if all heaven
was reverently waiting for the develop
ment.’’ Oh, yes, heaven Is to be a busy
place. It has been very busy during
all the years and the milleunlums that
are past. It will be very busy during
all the eternities that are to come, with
the exception of one cessation of work
for u short time, when there shall be
“silence in heaven for about the space
of half an hour.”
Dovii of tl»e East Were Scavenger*.
Following my first premise that
heaven Is to be a busy place my sec
ond premise Is likewise true. How do
I know that the busy occupations of
heaven will never offer despised work
for the redeemed Immortals? The
words of my text prove that. The dogs
of the east were the scavengers. The
eastern people had no wonderful sys
tems of sewerage as have we. They
had no means of carrying away by
subterranean pipes the offal and refuse
of their large towns. But all the refuse
of the kitchens and the homes and the
barns were and are thrown Into the
streets, where the dogs devour them.
In heaven, however, we shall have
none of the repulsive and abhorrent
occupations with which earth has been
cursed. Do you wonder that when I
rode Into Damascus and saw lying iu
the streets the dead body of a horse,
over which the dogs were flghtiug and
gormandizing, I should catch u glimpse
of a heavenly vision, where there shall
be no loathsome occupations us is this
one of the canine scavengers of the
east? Heaven Is to be a place of con
tinual work. Heaven is, however, to
be a place of glorious, happy, Jubilant,
honored occupations.
mortal shall be respected as much as j been beheaded, as was 1’aul; some Lave
ore the occupations of other immor- been burned at the-stake, as were Rid
ley and Latimer. But how different
was their future from that of the dog!
From out those crushed aud mutilated
bodies the martyr spirits have gone
up. redeemed and glorified, to dwell
forever before the throne.
A I.»■«;«■ ml of HIuk Solomon.
O ye mortals, destined to live for
ever either in bliss or in misery, does
not the offer that Christ makes you
stir your d -ire for salvation? Accept
his proffered gift, and then, be your
end what it may, your being rooted
up from this world, with Its bitter
fruits of sorrow and pain and misery,
will mean nothing more than your be
ing transplanted into that supernal
garden iu which you will grow and
flourish and bear fruit to the honor
and glory <iS God. There is an old leg
end that when King Solomon was a
boy one day he begged bis teacher to
show him a miracle. Nathan thrust
Ids finger Into the soil and dropped
therein a little seed. Immediately that
seed began to sprout. While the lad
looked on the two little green leaves
grew Into a round stem. Then the
stem swelled out with the trunk of a
large tree. Then the tree, like “the
seven branches, became like the seven
candlesticks of the altars,” and the
birds of the air flew into those branch
es and build(“d there their nests and
reared their young. While be looked
the blossoms grew upon that tree, and
then those blossoms were changed into
tin* deep rich red fruit which blushed
like the glow' of the setting sun. That
Is merely a legend, but there Is a real
miracle which can be worked in your
lives infinitely greater than young Sol
omon is supposed to have seen.
The seed of eternal life planted by
the Holy Spirit In your heart can
change your whole nature. Instead of
those qualities which degrade you to
the level of the brutes, Instead of the
sinful propensities which distort and
deform your being, there shall grow
from that divine seed a plant of beauty,
graceful and glorious with heavenly
loveliness and eternal in ever develop
ing life. “Ye shall be like a tree plant
ed by the ri vers of water, that brlngeth
forth its fruit in its season, and what-
soever ye doeth shall prosper.” What
is your choice? Will you live a life of
beauty and usefulness, a life patterned
on that divine life which Christ lived
on earth, ending in a triumphant resur
rection, or will you choose the wick
edness, the vice, the corruption, of the
world, feeding like the eastern dog on
the carrion of life and becoming In
