May be only a tiivd liver, or a starved

savage thing to beat a weary or starved
man because he lagged in his work. So
in treating the lagging, torpid liver it is
a great mistake to lash it with strong
dra-tic drugs. A torpid liver is but an

Indigestion Causes
Catarrh of the
Stomach.
For many years it has been supposed that
Catarrh cf the Stomach caused indigestion
and dyspepsia, but the truth is exactly the
opposite. Indigestion causes catarrh. Re
peated attacks of Indigestion Inflames the
mucous membranes lining the stomach and
exposes the nerves of the stomach, thus caus
ing the glands to secrete mucin instead of
the Juices of natural digestion. This Is
called Catarrh of the Stomach.

Sermon
By Rev.
Frank Dc Witt Talmage, D. D.
*
Los A navies, Dal., Auj,'. ‘20.—In thiH
sermon the preacher gives itn altogeth
er new interpretation to a passage
which teaches us that Gods mercies
and blessings sometimes come to us in
strange disguises. The text is Luke
xii, U>, "I am come to send lire upon
the earth.”
To the casual Bible reader these nine
words may seem to convey a meaning
which it is hard to reconcile with other
passages. You eaunot tmdei'stand how
Christ can be called the ‘Triuce of
Peace” and yet how he could send fire
upon the earth. "Fire,” you say—“why,
tire is the agent of death, not the fore
runner of life. It Is the most ruthless
destroyer known to man.” Go today
through any of our great forests, and
what do you see printed by the road
sides'/ It is a warning to the campers
and the travelers to beware of starting ip.ve In God the Father Almighty. Mak-

carry a shotgun? Is it for fear that he hood of God an I the divinity of Jesus
will kill game out of season? Perhaps Christ as revealed in the creations of
but the chief reason nature. Many years ago in a debating
the Earl of Rochester, in order
I asked a wealthy gentleman at
whose country home I was stopping.
“These archways would form a perfect
trellis where the vines could ding.
Then, flic first view the visitor has ol I

said m\ friend, "nothing 1 would like
better than that, but my flowers will
not grow hero. Yon must remember
that the sun rises in the east and that
moans that dur.ng the monih/fc hours
the west side of my house is shut out
from the light of the sun. That means
the ground here is always cold. Seeds
and dowers must have heat in which
to grow.” Heat means life for the
vegetable world, and cold always
means death. So you see that fire is
not always destructive, but is the sym
bol of life. Now, when I hear Christ
say, ‘T am come to send tire upon the
earth,” in a broad sense I seem to
hear Christ say, "I am come in order
to put children info the cradles of the
nurseries ami to weigh down the or
chard branches with fruits and to cov
er up tlit* harvest fields with golden
headed grain and to till the gardens
with busy bees and to hatch out the

“I am conic to send fire upon the
earth.” How can you explain this
anomaly? I can only suggest some of
the effects of fire, which may give us
a hint of our Lord’s meaning, for,
though wo may look upon fire as an
agency of death, we cannot forget
that it may become In God’s hands an
agency of eternal life and of the pur
est and the best of all earthly lives.
May God help us as we try to nnd«*-
stand these holy words.
A Symbol of livat.
Fire, in the first place, is the symbol
of heat, float Is the symbol of life.
Therefore ve find that all true life
comes from God, even as all beat of
the earth primarily comes from the
fires of the sun. In every bird that
flies, In every bee that hums, In every
squlrnd that chatters, In every flower
that grows, in every tree that rustles
and In every human being that walks
we see the great divine fact Illustrated
that the God who sent fire upon earth
is the great God who was and is the
Creator of all. Now, the fact that all
animal and vegetable life is dependent
upon fire and heat for creation and de
velopment Is well understood.
I am sitting upon the fanner's kitchen
porch, and 1 hoar a cackling noise.
The old s[>ockli*d Plymouth Rock ben Is
calling: "I have laid an egg! I have
laid cn egg! I am going to hatch out
a little chicken, for I have laid an egg!”
But the farmer’s wife lias another use
for the egg. Each morning she goes
aud takes that egg away from the hen.
Kite is absolutely merciless In this ro-
j spect. She cocks for her summer
boarders the best food for a breakfast
—namely, u fresh laid egg. When you
break It oiten, there It lies cut In half,
with Its center of gold covered over
with Its wrappings of purest white.
The snow could not be whiter than the
albumen of a new laid egg. At last the
old lien grows tired of having her eggs
, so she, in turn, finds a secret nest.
Khe tiles away to the top of the hay
loft, or she goes off to the other side of
the grain field and crawls under an old
board near the fence, and there she
makes her nest. Day after day the
white beauties grow in number. The
old feathered fowl keeps very still
about her secret. When you go out aud
say, “Biddle, where Is your nest?*’ she
looks us innocent as an old owl. Then
after twelve or thirteen of those eggs
have been* laid side by side Riddle
suddenly disappears. She comes
ful maiden, to he among the treasured
wedding gifts of a king's bride.
1 step across the bending, twisting,
winding Ohio river, filled with its
great freight boats and lined with its
mighty railroads, and 1 enter the
black, smoking heart of a great city
and stand in one of the huge foundries
that have tTiadc Pittsburg so famous
around the worid. 1 see the stalwart
workmen moving about the fires, in
their weirdness they look like the mov
ing spirits of Dante's “Inferno.” Then
I see the men tossing the iron ore into
the huge receptacle in whieh it be
comes molten as a river of lire. Then
I see the river of fire rolled out into
huge bars and tempered and allowed
to cool. “What are you difing, work
men?” I ask. “Making steel." "What!
Making steel out of that filthy, base
iron ore?” "Yes; steel is nothing more
or less than crude iron purified by fire
and tempered aright. That iron ore
shall yet he changed into steel rails,
over which the huge locomotives will |
run, and into steel beams to hold up
the bridges that will span the rivers, '
and into steel columns which will
make it possible for the twenty story j
ollh-e buildings to lift themselves in
our large cities. Iron ore could never
do this unless It had its alloys or baser
metals taken out of it.” What is true j
of the pottery industry and the steel
industry is also true of the hot fires
which tire built about the sands aud
the sodas and the limes and stilts of
the glass industries. These tires not
only make these substances molten,
but they also burn all the impurities
out of them. Thus Christ purifies us
by the hot fires of trouble. He burns
us and keeps on burning us that we ;
may be like unto himself. Ko I begin
to see that when Christ says, “I am
come to send lire upon the earth,” he
may mean a fire that shall purge and
purify us aud make us fit for his com
panionship In heaven.

I have already mentioned the San
Francisco lire. I was in that city
while it was burning. I saw some of
the buildings in flames and heard there
some of the tottering walls l>eing
dynamited. But the most impressive
place to me in all Kan Francisco was
where I stood amid the smoldering
wtills of its infamously famed China
town. A prominent Kau Francisco
minister was with me at the time. We
had not spoken for some time when
ho said: "Is it not awful? And yet,
awful as it is, you must bear in
mind one fact—this is the first time
for fifty years man has ever been able
to look upon Chinatown and call it
morally pure and clean.” Friend, you
have been having a hard time of late.
Your troubles have been coming thick

money went. Your baby! It seemed
she left you in the twinkling of tui

that last dangerous illness. You are

and the tyrannies of the dark ages? It
is said when Gustavus Adolphus, tin*
great king of Sweden, was fighting his
last battle at Lutzon that amid the
roar and crash of carnage a little
frightened bird knew not where to go,
so he alighted upon the shoulder of
the mighty warrior. Gustavus reached
up and took tin 1 little fluttering heart
in Ins hand. Then he spoke a few
soothing words to the bird and bid it
away for protection inside of his own
armor. Alter Gustavus was slain and

We have all been contaminated by

; and physical bodies.
Now, how does Christ purify our

But lastly, I learn from the word,
of my text that God’s fires are to lie

tho soldiers who will most joyfully

how were the contents of those eggs
turned Into little living creatures?
Simply by the agency of heat. Day
after day and week after week that old
hen sat upon those eggs. She sat so
long that the feaUiers were worn off
her breast. Khe sat so long that her
breast became like fire. The warmUi
of her body went Into the eggs, and
that warmth developed there the little
genus of life which grew until they
were able to burst asunder the sbello
and walk forth as perfect chickens.
“Why do you not plant your flowors
•nd vines on this side of the boosef”
heavy, massive brick walls which are
confining them. As I peer through
the little hole I seem to hear the clay
calling: “Ix*t me out! Oh, let me out!
They are burning me to death!” “No,”
answers the potter; “we are not de
stroying you; we are merely taking
the Impurities out of you.” Not only do
they burn some of tho clay once, but
twice and even thrice. Each time the
furnaces arc made hotter. Then the
clay comes forth ns the beautiful vase,
perhaps with Its sides painted Into a
flower garden by a master artist or
Into the exquisite features of a beaut’
are clean walls. God has been purify
ing you by his h >t tires of trouble. He
has been smelting the dross of sin
out of your sinful heart. In the hot,
biasing, seething furnaces of trouble
bo 1ms been making you like unto hlm-
scli and is encompassing you by his
arms of love. Hear ye uot bis sen
tence, "I am come to send tire upon
the earth?”
But God’s tires do uot allude only to
the llames of creation and of purifica
tion. Without doubt they allude to the
fires of battle and carnage as well. If
a human being will uot be purified by
the hot furnaces of trouble, then be
must tight God and fight him to the
death. In tho book of Ecclesiastes we
read, "There is a time to rend aud a
time to sow, a time to keep silence ami
a time to speak, a time to love and a
time to hate, a time of war aud a time
of peace.” Yes, there Ls a time for
gospel carnage. And Christ further
more said, “He that Is not with me is
against me, and be that guthereth not
with me scattereth abroad.” In other
words, you and I must be mustered
under Christ’s standard aud warm our
selves by the campfires or else we
must be enrolled among the cohorts of
his enemies and have different counter
signs and different purposes for which
we fight. These fires of my text are
the conflagrations of an Invtuling army
upon the march, as well us the signal
flumes which shall announce to the
world a universal peace.
A Carae or a Bleaalnc.
Now, war may be a curse or it may
be a blessing. It depends npon the
purposes or causes for which we fight.
And when I speak thus I have well in
mind the awful cost. “Give me the
money that has been spent in war,”
said a noted speaker, “and I will pur
chase every foot of land upon the
globe*. I will clothe every man, woman
and child in an attire of which kings
and queens would he proud. I will
build a sehoolhouse on every hillside
and in every valley.” That eulogy of
the [tower of peace was most beau
tifully said, but, though past wars
may have shed rivers of blood, I do
not believe the awful gashes of the
soldiers’ grave trenches were too deep
or too wide for the blessings which
many of them brought to this suffering
world.
Were uot the blessings which came
to mankind from tho overthrow of the
feudal system worth their sacrifices
of human life? What was the intrinsic
value of u few thousand or even a few
million lives In comparison to the
freedom of the home aud sanctity of
our loved ones and the Independence

wept tears of joy. They embraced and
kissed eacli other, for now the war was

cry everywhere. “Blessed peace—

Can heaven he a truly happy place
for our loved ones If we are not there
to sing with them the song of redemp

of the saddest sights I ever witnessed
was when the Second Illinois regiment
was about to leave for the Spanish
American war. I was its chaplain.
Just before we left the armory the cry
was taken up, "Does any one know a
man by the name of So-and-so?”
“What is the matter?” I asked. One
of the majors turned to me and salt]:
“A young boy ran away from home to
enlist. His mother is here, and she
thinks he enlisted in our regiment.
Khe wants to bid him goodby and give
bim her blessing.” No sooner did the
major speak thus than I saw this little
old mother In (aded dress among the
soldiers. I followed her. * Khe looked
from face to face, ami as she looked
she kept saying: "Do you know where
my boy is? Do you know my boy?”
Not a soldier laughed. Hardly an eye
was dry. Why? They were watching
a mother’s breaking heart hunting for
a lost child. Can It he that such a
scene as this shall be repeated in Leav

master; “Hands off Khe Is my child, our Christ shall be lool lug In vain for
She la mine?” Were not all the sac
rifices for religious freedom well
made? Would you put out the fires
which burned to death the mortal life
of Uldley, Latimer, Hush, Savonarola,
if lu order to do it we had to go back
Snd grope about amid the ouperatitlons
our faces among the rejoicing hosts of
heaven? Shall it be? Khali some of us
never be seen by the campfires of heav
en whieh shall leap and blaze when
the flaming torches of sin shall bo for
ever snuffed out?
