Oct 23.—To give congratulation to the successful nnl sympathy with the sorrowing nnd the iisl-essed is urged by the preacher in this sermon. The text is Romans xii, 15, ••Rejoice with them that do rejoice, nnd weep with them that weep.” Perpetual segregation, isolation, sep aration, seclusion, voluntary exile, were considered by many of the an cients as necessary adjuncts to the at tainment of the highest earthly de velopment of Christian perfection. Be cause Christ fasted and prayed In the wilderness for forty long days many disciples cf old believed that to be like Christ they must continually live in a wilderness, wear sackcloth and ashes and do nothing But pray and starve and starve and pray. They tried to walk with God, to be like Enoch, by refusing to walk with their fellow men. They tried to live with Christ by sleeping on stone couches and shiver ing in damp cells and clothing them selves in coarse woolens, by trampling through snows with naked feet and by mumbling daily prayers with sepul chral countenances, while they refused to smile un encouragement to the little children playing in the street or to help carry a heavy pack under which a poor, tired peasant was staggering on his way to town; hence the monas teries and the nunneries nnd the clois ters and the abbeys nnd tbe priories, which are only a few of the many names given to tbe ancient buildings within which the monks and nuns im mured themselves lor separation from sinful men. of whom they did not wish to be a part. But away back in the time of creation God said, "It is not good for man to be alone.” And what Go* 1 spake to Adam, our first ancestor, Goi. is speaking to us now. Not Good to Be Alone. "Not good for man to‘be alone.” Yes, we know it We know it in spite of the fact that the cloister has segregat ed some good men from contact with the busy, anxious, sinful world. Thom as a Kempis was a hermit, a recluse., Thomas a Kempis was a good man. Within th« gloomy walls of the Augus- tinian convent of Zwolle, in the dark recesses of an ascetic’s cell, he wrote the wonderful pages of “De Imltatione Christi.” But, though his book is a wonderful guide to Cbrlstly life, Thom as a Kempis’ cell is a poor place in which a modern Christian could prac tice the gospel truth. By all odds the best place to translate tbe teachings of Thomas a Kempis is not in an as cetic’s cell, but in God's sweet, pure, golden sunlight, among just such rough, horny handed men as the fish ermen with whom Jesus Christ asso ciated. San Marco convent of Florence is a poor nursery for spiritual life. There Fra Angelico has drawn the students of art to come and study his figures of Christ which he painted upon the cold walls nearly 000 years ago. But the best place to be a modern Fra Angelico and to paint Christ in the hearts of living mep is to do as Paul did on bis missionary tours. It is to do as Christ did when talking to men. It is to do as your mother and father did in the parental sympathy of a Christian home. It is to do as we ourselves can do by being Christ’s disciples and re joicing with other people In their true joys and worshiping with them in their true sorrows. My text teaches the same kind of a consecrated active existence as did a brother minister who lived a few years ago in a great Chicago center. 1 speak thus about him because he is now far across tbe seas, working as a missionary in foreign fields. After the Rev. George William Wright had been for some months in the Philippines the superintendent of his old Sabbath school of Bethlehem church was tryiug to draw a verbal picture of Jesus Christ. The only being he had in mind at the time was our Saviour. During his talk the superintendent practically said these words: “Children, who am I now talking about? Who has always been willing to join with you in your fun and be happy with you when you had a right to be happy? Who has al ways been a friend, a loving, forgiv ing friend, when you have done wrong? Who has for years gone in and out among us as a gentle, kind example- one who never did wrong, who never spoke harshly against any one, who was always ready to lead u.s and to love us? Tell me. children, who Is he?” With a mighty chorus the little children began to call: "I know, sir. I know. It Is Mr. Wright. It Is our old pastor, Mr. Wright.” That encomium of these little Sunday school children Is the best illustration I know of what my text means. Valne of Chrlsttaa Sympathy. Christian sympathy is a necessary gospel attribute, in the first place be cause no human power on earth does so much to make a good man or even a bad man try to live better as to know that other lives are wrapped up in his life. "Sympathy,” wrote the lexicog rapher, “is literally a fellowship with others in their various conditions of Joy or of grief.” It Is tbe power which a Christian man has of putting bis hand through another's arm and say- Ing: "OM fellow, you are not alone in this v arid. My Interest i me combined In yonr Interests. When you are bap- ry I am happy. ’.Wen you are sad I am sad. When you live right I rejoice. \\ hen you sin 1 sorrow as much as if I had committeed tiie sin. Theivfore, O friend, you must be very careful bow you live In one sense you are exactly in ihe place of a locomotive engineer who has a long train of coaches attached to his engine's ten der. If your true arm fails, then other lives besides your own must suffer on account of jour weakness.” When Christian sympathy speaks thus an av erage man will suddenly stop and say to himself: "What! Does any one care for me? Is my life an important factor in other lives? If this be true, I must be careful where my feet go. how I laugh, how 1 cry and what I do. My life is not an independent entity. My Spilled blood will stain other garments besides my own.” The dependence of other lives upon our lives—is not this realization a mighty safeguard against a man run ning into needless physical dangers as well as spiritual? The other day a sailor rowed you out into the oiling or Ijay to take you fishing. There was a strong breeze blowing beyond the point of jutting rocks which protected the bay, but the fish were Jumping every where, and the temptation to go was very great. But no sooner did you ob serve the “crankiness” of the sailboat toward which you were rowing and in which you were to sail than you turned to your companion and said: "I am not going out today. That boat is not safe. It is leaking now.” Why were you not willing to go? Are you any more of a coward now than you were ten or fifteen years ago, when you would hare Jumped into that bout without fear? Oh, no, not that. No one could charge you with being a coward. Personally you would just ns lief run the risk now as jmu did fifteen years ago, hut now you have a wife and children, which was not so fifteen years ago. Now you have oth ers dependent upon you. Now you cannot afford for their sakes to need lessly risk your life. Why They Were Reckless. "What kind of soldiers are the most reckless?” was one day asked Lord Kitchener, the British general of the Boer war. Without any hesitation he answered: "Bachelor soldiers. Not that they are at heart braver, but when a man has a wife and children depend ent upon him for daily bread he guards his life more carefully on their ac count and does not run into any useless dangers.” Now, my friends, when a true father is careful not to run into physical dangers, fearing he may de prive his wife and children of their daily bread, is not a man by the same law of reasoning the more unwilling to run into spiritual dangers and tempta tions if he realizes that the Joys of oth ers, in a spiritual sense, are wrapped up in his own Joys and that sorrows in other lives will be caused by hie sins? Lord Bacon, in one of his match less essays, once said, “After a man marries he surrenders into the hands of success his wife and children as hostages.” By that Lord Bacon meant, “Every man who is married is handi capped In the race of life.” He meant that a man becomes timid when he has a wife and children. In the crises of life, when success is won bj' the man who casts everything into the scale, the married man hesitates because he is afraid to risk the future of his wife and children. But he overlooked the fact that his love for his family will keep him from running foolish risks. So when a man enlarges his circle and makes the welfare of others his con cern he has an Inspiration to a better, truer, nobler life. He shrinks from wrongdoing because he knows that he will injure others by his example. The ascetic has only himself to consider, but the man who has entered into oth er men's Joys and sorrows knows that bis fail or his good life may affect tbe lives of others. What the Scripture Heans. But bow is Christian sympathy to enter truly into the existence of an other’s life? First, my text says, “Re joice with them that do rejcrtce.” Do you know what that means? Why, the interpretation is simple enough to un derstand. It means when you see an old school friend getting ahead in life, when you see a brother succeeding at the law or In medicine or in the pulpit, when you see a sister living in a finer house than yours or driving in a car riage while you walk, or when you know that your brother-in-law is able to take his family and children to tbe country to get back the fiush of health to their pale cheeks, while you cannot afford to go, that you must not be jeal ous of their successes. If you are a minister and you hear of another church holding a great revival and gathering in new converts by the scores, you are to go to the minister of that church with a warm, loving gos pel handshake and say: “Brother, I congratulate you! We are praying for you and the great good you are doing. May God bless your new members and make them mighty agents for Christ!” It mtans that if you are a candidate for some office and another is elected to the presidency of that society in your stead then you are to pitch in and work just as hard for tbe successful outcome of your successful rival’s ad ministration as you would have work ed for your own, and, furthermore, not only work Just as hard for the new man, but be Just as happy in his suc cesses as you would have been In your own successes. “Ob,” says some one. with a quick gasp, “I did not know this text meant as much as that. That is pretty bitter medicine for an average disciple to swallow. I cannot understand how George B. McClellan would feel very kindly toward Major General Burn side, who superseded him after the ; battle of Antietam. Neither Is It nat ural for a Beward or a I'iiase to l>e enthusiastic over the election of a Lincoln. Of course (here have been some great, big hearted, noble men, like Samuel Adnms, who were ready to stay in the background and push other men to the front, ns Samuel Adnms did Hancock and John Adams and Otis and Joseph Warren and (juin- cj\ But. lor the most part, men work best in any great cause when individ ually they are working for themselves. It is not natural for a young lady at u reception to be particularly pleased when most of the young men are hov ering about her rival's clinlr as a swarm of li(H»s might circle about u beautiful flower. Neither is it. natural for any one to truly rejoice In (mother's success when that success In one sense seems to*undermine his own success.” Yes. my friend, you are right. It is not natural for n sinful man to “re joice with those that do rejoice.” But the gospel of Jesus Christ can make what Is unnatural for sinful man nat ural for a redeemed man. “The hard est act of life is to get any man to be willing to completely sink his Individ uality in a cause.” once wrote General Samuel Armstrong, the founder and first principal of the Hampton insti tute. “It Is comparatively easy to get rich men to endow a scholarship or to erect a building or to do this or that for which their names will be known far and wide, yet it is almost impossi ble to get any man to give his money to help out. the ordinary running ex penses of a college, which have to be met and must be met right away.” Difficult, is it, to rejoice with a man when he rejoices and to help on his success? Yes, but I believe the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ is even able to accomplish that wonder, and it can accomplish it, O man. In your heart, so that you can go to your successful brother and say: “Brother, give me thy hand. I rejoice with you in your success. I low can I help that success to become greater?” Why Not Rejoice f And why should you not rejoice In your brother’s success? Wheu does your brother ueed your true help and friendship more than when he is scor ing a success? Is uot the time of suc cess just the time wheu he Is most apt to be thrown off his guard and destroy ed by evil temptations? Is not that the critical moment when the Satanic tempters are ready to scrape and fawn about him, as the seductive youug flat terers did about Rehoboam wheu he went to Shechem to be crowned, as they did about young King Charles II. after the English restoration, as they did about poor Louis XVI. when he came to the French throne only a lad twenty years of age? Do you not feel that your successful brother needs your affectionate and hearty co operation In this his hour of success rather than your sneers and your oppro brium? It is almost time for you to cease sitting around and sulking be cause of his victories. Do not try to undermine his usefulness by pulling down the temple of fame which he has reared, even as Samson pushed against and cracked the pillars which tumbled the roof of the temple of Dagon down upon the skulls of the screaming and crouching Philistines. If a brother needs your help in time of success, does he not also need you all the more ”to weep with him when he weeps?” Does he not ueed you to come to his sympathetic aid when all the world seems black and when it tru ly seems, on account of his wrongdo ings. that he can never become a no ble man again? Does he not need your help when, floundering in the quick sands of sin, he seems to be deserted by God and man alike and to be only the sport and plaything of devils? And does he uot also need your help when, in the awful hours of black temptation, he is about to yield as well as in the black hours of remorse after he has done wrong? If a man who has done wrong or is about to do wrong needs your help, how much more does a woman in her hours of trial? I always had a great deal of sj'mpathy for the prayer of that woman who said, “O God, keep me froni going over the precipice of sin, for If my feet ever leave the path of virtue even thou canst not bring me back to the straight path again.” And yet how many women there are today being torn and lacerated by the thickets of sin who could be brought back to live honest, pure, true, respect able lives if only the Christian men and the women in the name of Christ would go forth to bring them back! The beginning of my text opens amid the shouts and gay laughter of the merrymakeis. It closes with the sobs and moans nnd tbe groans of breaking hearts. Brother, sister, will you today in the name of Christ “weep with those that weep?” Will you stretch forth the broad, strong, loving hand of rescue and say, “Brother, sister, in the name of Jesus Christ, give me thy hand, and I will help thee up to God, up to a heavenly and an earthly res cue?” Will you do this for Christ? Will you “weep with those that weep” and help others, no matter how far astray their sinful feet may go or are about to go? A Practical Test. “Yes,” answers some one, “from this day I promise to help all those in dis tress that I can.” You do? Well, then, let me put that resolve to a practical teat At a large religious gathering in the east where a collection was about to be taken up for famine stricken Ireland that big hearted philanthro pist William E. Dodge arose and said: “Gentlemen, we have been bearing some wonderful speeches about this famine. Some of us have been crying, some praying. Now I want to put your gospel sympathy to a practical test. What Ireland needs is bread, bread, bread, bread, bread! In order to buy that bread my sympathy is worth Just 9S00. What is your sympathy worth?” As William E. Dodge put his sympa thy to a practical test I want to put your sympathy to the same kind of a test. You say ns a Christian man, "By the grace of God I will alwnjs help those who need help.” Well, here Is s convict Just liberated from Jail. WorkI He will do any honest work that be can got. but tlio trouble is he cannot get any work to do. All earth and hell seem to be arrayed against his living an honest life. A few months ago, dur ing his confinement, he thought and dreamed over the happy days of his ; past life. While he thought and dream ed the picture of his old home trans formed ids prison cell Into the old nurs ery. He was romping and playing again with his brothers and sisters. There he saw again the old folks, now asleep in the family plot. There was the old haymow in which he used to play and wrestle. Yes, there was the same old haymow In which Ihe hens used to hide their eggs and then cackle over the Joke. There was the old church In which he used to squirm nnd twist nnd fall asleep when the good old minister would forget when to stop in his preaching. And there was the old village postofflee where the neigh bors came to bid him goodby when, in the old. rickety stage, lie left the vil lage and started forth to find work in the large town. As he dreamed In that cell the re pentant tears came flowing from his eyes. He then and there made up his mind to lead a good, true, honest, pure Christian life and at last to be buried In the old family plot at the feet of bis father and mother. But, though he is now free and wanting to be an honest man, what chance has he? Every door of business Is shut against him. Too few places for honest men. For him no room, no room. The other day he applied for work as a coal heaver. When about to be employed a rough workman stepped forward and said to the owner of the yard: “Mister, I would not hire that man If I were you. He has just finished a sentence in the penitentiary.” With that the employ er turned and said: “Out of this yard, you scoundrel! My office is no reform atory!” Trying to be honest, who will give him a chance? Pray God he may not give up. Tomorrow you may see him. What, then, will your sympathy be worth? What Is Yoar Sympathy Worth! Here is a poor, weak sewing girl struggling on to make an honest living and to live right. But, try on hard as she will, in her weakened physical con dition she can make but $3 a week, and that is just 50 cents less than she can live upon. Oh, what an awful life! No sounds are heard in that room save the continual scratchings of her needle, the sighs of a crushed heart or the low, hectic cough of a diseased lung. Sewing for others while she has hardly a rag of her own. aH well enough for you to talk about the holi ness of virtue. You have your three good meals a day. But tomorrow, when you ask her to make you a new dress or you see her going down the street In her faded shawl, what will your sympathy be worth? Here is a street urchin. Just as good a boy as yours, and if be bad any chance he would make Just as good a man. But what chauce has he? Tbe kindest word be ever received was a curse. No mother save a drunkard; no father save a felon; no school save sin; no literature save au obscene pic torial. Where did be spend last night? In a low Bowery theater, the ticket bought by pitching pennies. Last winter when one of these boys was shivering upon a street corner of one of the eastern cities such a little newsboy turned to another street arab and said: “Jim, dey say der is a God. I’m hungry, Jim. I’m cold. I don’t know where to go. And, Jim, I don’t care for any God dat don’t care for me.” Tomorrow such a boy will try to sell you a morning newspaper. What will then your gospel sympathy be worth? Oh, my friends, Christ came into the world to “weep with those that weep.” He came to save the lost sheep, not those safe within tbe fold. Be ye like Christ. Go out into the highways and the hedges and compel them to come in. Fine churches will not do it. Missionary subscrip tions will not do It. But by the help of the Holy Spirit Christian men and women can do it, who in a plain, prac tical way will share the joys and tbe sufferings of others and thereby, by the help of God. bring those sinners back with them to the Master’s feet. There is no picture on earth more beautiful than that of a Christian, by tbe Holy Spirit inspired love of Chris tian sympathy, trying to bring lost souls to Jesus Christ. There Is a beau tiful legend told of Zacchaeus when be bad become old and feeble. He still lived in the outskirts of Jericho. Ev ery morning he would go off alone for a walk and remain away two or three hours and then would come back smil ing and happy. He would never tell any one where he went. But one morning his wife followed him. Then she saw her old husband go to tbe old sycamore tree made memorable by bis history. He kissed it. He caressed it. He watered it. He plucked up the weeds about it. When his wife asked I him why he was doing this the old man answered: “Why, do you not know, my dear? This is where I first saw Him. This Is where He called to me, ‘Zac chaeus, make haste and come down!’ ” Ah, that is a beautiful legend. But it is not to me the most beautiful story I have heard about Zacchaeus. The most beautiful fact I know about tbe publican is not that he caressed and kissed a tree, but that after his con version be was ready to do anything and everything to serve Christ among sinful men. When Zacchaeus said, “Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor,” I know that Zac chaeus at once went forth to “weep with those that weep.” I know that at once he had an unquenchable de sire burning within him to bring all classes to tbe feet of him whom he called Saviour. Oh, my friends, will not you nnd I have this holy desire burning within us? Will we uot live to bring the hap py and the troubled alike to Christ? [Copyright, 1904, by Lrute Klopsch.] Can You Eat? J.

When a man falls back on oaths he declares himself out of argument. Cause of Lockjaw. Lockjaw', or tetanus, is caused by a bacillus or germ which exists plenti fully in street dirt. It is inactive so long as exposed to the air, but when carried beneath the skin as in the wounds caused by percussion caps or by rusty nails, and when the air is ex cluded the germ is roused to activity and produces the most virulent poi son known. These germs may be de stroyed and all danger of lockjaw avoided by applying Chamberlain’s Plain Balm freely as soon as the in jury is received. Pain Balm is an an tiseptic and causes cuts, bruises and like injuries to heal without matura tion and in one third the time required by the usual treatment.
