Old Mr. Rheumatism han(Ss on tight

It's quite a joh

It’s hard to be
lieve that all the
pain and trouble
he causes comet
from such a little
thing. Just a
tiny bit of acid
in the blood the
kidneys haven’t
taken care ot. !
Mut tiie kidneys
aren’t to blame. !
I used to thml
they were. Nov !
I know better. It’s that over worked and ,
over crowded stomach giving t;ie kiduc 1 ‘
part of its work and the kidneys in't do '
it. 1 found this out with Cooper s New
Discovery. It puts the stomach in shape,
that’s all it does, and yet I have seen
thousands of people get rid of rheumatism
by taking it. That is why I am positive
that, rheumatism is caused by stomach
trouble. Here is a sample of letters I
get every day on the subject.
“For a long time I have been a victim
of sciatica and inflammatory rheumatism,
and my Buffering has been too great to de
scribe. For weeks I lay helpless with
every joint in my body so tender and sore
that I could not bear o no c. I he slight

agony. Several doctors treated tr.c but
they failed entirely. I tried many reme

In my lifetime I have seen many

morn. Some of them have depicted
Jesus in the can Ion walking among the
lilies talking with Mary. Some of
them have pictured Christ stepping out
of tlio tomb amid the prostrate forms
of the Homan soldiers Som** of them
have pictured I’“tor and John looking

rey in om <1 his Melbourne addresses
gave a vivid description of the death
and funeral of his great leader, D. L
Moody. lie <-iid in part: “When I stood
up to speak, ihere lay the body in front
of me, ami there sat his wife and chil
dren with h ads erect, not bowed, their
eyes looking right into mine with a
peaceful, trirpnphaut light. When we
sang those wonderful hymns about Em
manuel’s land and the second coming of
Christ, the mourners, as you call them,
joined in the singing with shining
faces. Then, when all bad spoken and
that service was over, Will Moody, the
son, ro'-e calmly in his place and, turn
ing round to farm the audience, gave a
triumphant testimony to the power of
the risen Christ and the Holy Ghost.
Just then, ns if a shutter above bad
swung open. Hm tin hur t through the
Clouds, and every ray of sunlight that
came Into the church fell on the face
lying still In the easket.”
Was It Chance?
I wonder if it was a mere haphazard
chance that the light of God’s sun fell
upon the face of God’s redeemed dead
at the funeral of I>. L. Moody. I trow
not. I wonder If It was a mere Irides
cent dream of an imaginative artist
that made the fi , id light of the rising
sun hover about the three empty
crosses on the first Easter morn. I be
lieve if the midnoon sun was able to
hide it- face Imbind.the blink clouds
on the day that Jesus was crucified
that the same sun could change the
beams of Christ’s cross into bars of
gold on the day that Jesus was resur
rected. Let us think of that Easter
morn and those significant crosses.
Let us. In the first place, turn our at
tention to the central cross, upon which
Jesus died. Why was this cross left
standing amid the glories and the tri
umphs of Easter day? Why was It al
lowed to stand there to cast Its dark
shadow over the beautiful form of a
risen Christ? I think God left It stand
ing there for a purpose. He Is coming
to you and me today to say: “Ob. child,
amid Jho eongsjlof rejoicing which you
are singiug' v fft this Easter season,
amid the beautiful flowers with which
you are decorating your churches,
amid sermons of triumph with which
you are celebrating your sacred festal
day, you must not forget the price
Jesus Christ paid for your redemption!
Let the smile be on the lip, let Joy
come welling up out of the heart as
the bubbling brook bursts out of the
green moss upon the mountain side,
but let the empty cross upon which
Jesus died always stand near to re
mind you of the agony and the suffer
ings and the crown of thorns w’th
which Jesus purchased your salva
tion.” The cross oh. the empty cross
of the first Easter morn! Who would
want to pull It down from Golgotha on
the morn Jesus was resurrected? Who
would want to obliterate all the mem
ory of the suffering of the atonement
with which Christ obliterated our sins?
The cross—oh. the cross, the empty
cross of Jesus Christ, changed Into
great beams of gold by the Easter sun!
Oh, let It stand In the center of every
[umpb of Easter mi
The Empty Cross.
But tills empty cross of Jesus Christ
teaches us another Easter lesson. It Is
a reminder of the glorious fact that,
though for a little while the scepter of
sin may seem t > have the world for Its
kingdom, yet In the end eternal right
shall surely triumph. It implies the
promise that, though for a little while
Christ may he put upon the cross and
hidden awifV in the tomb, yet there
will surely come u day when he shall
step out of Ills tomb and nil his ene
mies shall bo scattered, even as the
Easter morn*chases away the darkness
1 of Hie midnight.
It is not the power making the great
est noise which always has the most
enduring strength. Neither Is it the
day of evil which has the longest twi
light. “What are you making such a
fuss about?” I asked a bitter January
wind some years ago among the Mich
igan hills. “Oh.” answered the wind,
“I am going to bring down a blizzard
from the far north. Then I am going
to pih* these* fields up with great snow
drifts. Then 1 am going to freeze the
lakes so thick with ice that the lum
bermen can drive their sleds loaded
! down with heavy logs oyer them. Then
I am going to freeze up the ground so
tight that It will be as hard as rock.
Then I am going to stop all the trafile
upon the railroad tracks. Then I am
going t‘> starve the snowbirds and the
rabbits and freeze to death the deer in
the fore-t ravines. Yes, I nm going
to make a!! living creatures tremble In
torro’- before my s< enter of ice.” And
well did the January wind keep its
word. I! blew mi il the blizzards came.
It blew until the fences disappeared
under the falling snow. Il blew until
It seemed as though man must llee
those Michigan hills for his life. But
nffor that north wind had exhausted
all its fury and piled up the great
snow banks every where irvl hung myr
iad ; of icy stalactites from every tree
branch quietly and gently the warm
sun came out. Then the bright sun
beams kept Ui-sing this snowflake and
ki - in r that snowflake and changing
this Made of lee into a bar of gold
and that blade of ice Into another bar
vf gold and burrowing here and bur
rowing there until after awhile that
same ; an brushed away every snow
bank and began to woo the buds out
of ih ■ trees and the grass out of the
ground, and the sap began to flow,
and tlie bird- began to build their
nests, mid spring ami summer took the
place of the blizzards and the frosts
of winter. Ah, no, It Is not the power
□utkin tig* greatest noise which al
ways has the most enduring strength.
An Old Legend.
Many centui ago there was a great
assemblage of Hie forces of nature, and
they said: “Let us build a tower of
Hubei. Let u- ere< t a huge fortress of
rock whit b -hall be forever a monu
ment to our si#, u .tb.” So the earth
quakes said: " xYe will writhe and
twist this ok i earth all out of shape.
We will throw tin* rocks aslant and
we will pile tl cm < <* upon the other.”
Then tin* ;\*:v'»nt heat said. “T will
strike this old ,.: lh and make it shriv
el up like a dried orange.” Then the
volcanoes said: “Out of the center of
the earth we will vomit up great moun
tains of lava. Wo will ini.Id a huge
mountain range of rocks that the fires
cannot burn and th'* eternities cannot
level." So these forces of nature went
to work. They piled up huge mountain
ranges which seemed to be impregna
ble and inaccessible fortresses for all
time. But after these rough forces of
nature had finished their work a col
lection of white ileecy clouds began to
sail aero * tin* heavens. Then they
came to the grc.it mountains and said,
“Let us undo the work of the earth
quakes, the volcanoes and the fervent
heat.” So tbe-c white fleecy clouds
went over to the ea, and they dropped
their golden buckets into the deep and
tilled up their reservoirs. Then with
their white wings they flew away to
the mountains and began to let that
water fall upon the mountain side.
Then that water gradually and yet
surely began to wash away the dirt
and the rocks of those mountains.
It washed those mountains down Into
the valleys, and it kept on washing
them down until after awhile the little
drops of water were able to level the
unscalable fortresses which the vol
canoes and the earthquake had piled
up into great mountain ranges, seem
ingly strong enough to defy the eter
nities themselves. It Is not the power
making the greatest noise which al
ways has the enduring strength.
“Aha!” cried the sanhedrin. “Aha!”
cried the synagogue. “Alia!” cried the
Roman profligate. “Aha!” cried all the
intrenched forces of sin. “We shall
forever live and triumph If we can
only slay this upstart, Jesus Christ”
Ro what did they do? They united
their forces of evil. They defied and
overrode every law of Justice. They
captured Jesus by night. They ran
him to court and tried him by nlgbt
which was contrary to every known
Hebrew and Roman usage. Then In the
early morning they hanged him upon
the cross. Then they stood at the foot
of the cross and cried: “Aha! We, the
powers of evil, have forever won!
Aha! Jesus, our denunciator, himself
Is dead!” And he was dead. Have you
ever seen Rubens’ greatest master
piece, called “The Descent From the
Cross?” Ah, that picture well Illus
trates how dead Jesus was!
He Was Dead.
When your little girl died and the
kind friends washed her and dressed
her and laid her out In the casket, sur
rounded by flowers. It did not seem as
though she could be dead. There she
lay with a smile upon her lips. Just as
you had seen her lying a hundred
times In her crib. As you watched her
you could almost see her breast heave
and see her roll over In her sleep.
Then you said, “Ob, she Is too bounti
ful to he put away in the dark graver
I , n ■■ ii -
being dead. His skin is as ghastly
white as the white sheet they are
wrapping about him. The blue veins
seem to be standing out like whip
cords upon his forehead. Ills feet, his
hands ami his head seem to be hangmg
ns heavy ns tons of lend. He could not
have boon more utterly beyond restora-
tlou If be bad lain In his rynve a thou
sand years. And yet withiii three days
within sight of his empty cross Christ
arose and walked and moved and lived
and had his being. My friends, like the
eruclflers of old, you may lie able to
defy Christ for a little while, but re-
fnember the day of Christ’s burial Is
to be followed by his day of resurrcc
tion. Remember that question of Pi
late, “What shall I then do with Jesus
who L called the Christ?” must find its
eHm In “What shall Jesus then do with
me at his judgment seat?” Christ in
the tomb means Christ coming to his
resurrection. The empty cross of the
first Easter morn proves It.
But there Is another fact I want you
to notice about tills central cross on
Golgotha hill. It proves that even aft
er a man has sinned seventy times
seven Christ Is willing to pardon him
of his sins If he will only throw him
self upon the Saviour’s grace and love.
I Christ Is not one who claims an eye
for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a hand
for a hand an 1 a foot for a foot, lie
Is not a Shylock demanding a full
pound of flesh nearest to the human
heart because “it is so nominated In
the Imml.” But Jesus i o'- ( » who is
willing to give a full forgiveness for
nil wrong If we are only willing to
con e and bow at his feet and accept
bis pardon and his love. T.ot me Il
lustrate this thought by the picture of
tin* empty cross.
To whom did this central cross right
fully belong? To Jesus? Nay. To the
one whose face must have been so
pure, so true so gentle, so loving, that
all who saw ft must have felt that only
love and mercy could dwell there?
Nay. That central cross rightfully be
longed to one whose brow w*is scarred
and wrinkled with bitterness and hate,
to one whose mouth was cruel and
merciless, to one whose hairy hands
were often covered with human blood.
That cross, that central one, rightfully
belonged to Barabbas, the murderer
1 and Insurrectionist. It rightfully be
longed to the brutal murderer whose
heart was so hardened that lie thought
no more of taking human life than a
tiger would have of slaying a kid. And
yet, after all the mockery of that farci
cal trial was over, after Jesus had
been adjudged guilty and sentenced to
death, God gave the Jews another
chance to accept Christ. Then Pilate
came forward and said: “Whom will
ye that I release unto you. Jesus or
Barabbas? You know, Jews, that once
a year it is the custom of the governor
to liberate one prisoner. Will ye let
me release you Jesus Instead of Bar-
abbas?” Yes. Even today, after n
long life of sin and evil. God comes to
us and says: “Will ye now accept
Jesus or Barabbas? Which? Which?”
Oh, the mercy of God! Oh, the for
giveness of God! Can any human love
surpass it? Can any human love equal
it? Aye, human love may be very
great, but It is not ns great as the
love of nuA.onl and my God. Some
years ago I received a letter from a
lady in the east which went something
like this: “I am a lorudy woman who
cannot do much in this world. I am
what you call a ‘shut-in.’ But, though
I can do but little, I do feci I have
strength enough to care for some poor
1’ttle crippled orphaned child. So if
you can find one that no one would
care to love send him to me, and I
will adopt him and love him and look
after him as if he were my own child.”
Was not that a beautiful letter? But
bow much more beautiful Is this empty
cross of Jesus Christ! I hear a voice
from the form unjustly stretched upon
It saying: “I am on this cross instead
of P.arabba'v Even after the Jews un
justly condemned me I was willing to
pardon their ins. Oh, child, even In
thy sins today I will pardon thee If
thou wilt only come to me. Come, ye
sinners. Come ye who have platted a
crown of thorns upon my bleeding
brow. Come ye who have spit upon
mo. Come, and come now and flud
a Saviour’s love and a Saviour’s
peace.”
Death a Liberator.
But there is another groat lesson
which we can learn from these empty
Easter crosses. They prove that death
for the redeemed spirit is not a tyrant.
He is not one who can manacle his
victims and shut them up In a leaden
cofliu and lock them In a tomb and bolt
the door of that tomb for a thousand
years. But death for the redeemed
spirit Is a liberator, an emancipator,
lie is a messenger who can fly swifter
than the winds. He la one who can
fly swifter than the light. One mo
ment he Is here; the next, with one
flutter of the wing, he Is nestling In
the bosom of the great God, where are
issembled all the redeemed spirits of
all the ages of all times. I am never
so Impressed with this thought as
when I stand before the three empty
crosses of the first Easter morn. And
as I see these three empty crosses I
always ask myself this question: “I
wonder which cross held the repented
thief; I wonder If It was the right
hand cross or the left hand cross?”
Then I say, ”1 think It must be the
left hand cross.” Thus when I stand
before It I say: “Poor fellow! Poor
fellow!” Perhaps he was not entirely
to blame for his sins. Perhaps his fa
ther was a robber. Perhaps bis moth
er was a thief. Perhaps he was born
In a camp of robbers. But, whether he
was born wrong or born right, be knew
that he was a sinner. He knew that
Jesas was unjustly condemned, and
be cried out for mercy, and Jesus said
to him, ‘This day sbalt thou be with
me In paradise.” There waa no long
probation for him. There was no pur-
his liberated and redeemed spirit went
to heaven. And no sooner do our dead
ones leave us than at once they go to
God. Aye, qulcuer than that! Eveu
before their tired, wornout spirits are
liberated from their prisons of clay
they catch a glimpse of the Joys and
the raptures beyond.
But I cannot dose this sermon with
out lingering just one instant under
the empty ero:,.-. of the unrepentant
thief. Oh, it is so empty! It seems to
cry out In words of agony: ‘The last
chance for Iwvi . a is gone. The last
chance for .-.d\ tion is forever, ever
ever gone.
The Cursing Th.af.
1 eomc* under that cross, mid F look
again. It is not empty now. I se<* tin
sunken eyes ot the dying man. 1 see
the hot sun burning into that parched,
bleeding brow. I - the swollen lips
and the thick tongue. Then f see those
swollen lips turn and that tongue be
gin to move, and I hear the Udci. ilic
dying thief, turn and curse Ids Lord.
Oh, my God, is he cursing the#? Oh,
my Lord, wilt thou not forgive him
even though he curses thee? Then 1
seem to hear my Saviour say: “My
love is infinite. My pardon is infinite.”
But God’s love has its limitations. He
does not forgive those who will not rc
pent of their sins. Within a few ino
ments that dying thief’s chance of sal
vation will he gone forever. The si
lent, empty cross of this Easter proves
that a man'; last chance for s.ilvaiion
may he passed over and be gone for
ever. My I.ord and my God, can sou «•
of us be losing our last chance l'o"
heaven now, now, even now?
Canst thou not feel that this pulpit
this very day is the hill of Golgotha?
Canst thou not see the three empty
crosses standing here amid these bow-
ors and wreaths and column ; of flow
ers? Canst thou not touch these crosses
now? I have of f c*n wondered what he
came of those three crosses after the
crucifixion. By the old Roman law if
a man was crucified his body was al
lowed to hang upon the- cross, week in
and week out and month in and month
out, until It rotted away. But that was
not the Hebrew custom. As soon as
the criminal was dead then his body
was taken down and buried. Thu .
after the first Easter mnrn 1 v. aider
if the disciples took these crosses and
cut them into pieces and kept them as
sacred relics? I wonder if they thought
they had any spiritual efficacy? I won
der If we had a few pieces of one of
those crosses now would we look upon
those pieces of wood as having a sav
ing grace in their touch? Perhaps we
would. Perhaps that is the reason God
has made all parts of those crosses dis
appear. Perhaps by the complete dis
appearance of those crosses God is
now saying to us on this Easter day:
“Children of the twentieth century,
knowest thou not that there are three
crosses in thy midst today? They are
not empty crosses either. The center
cross holds Jesus. One of the outside
crosses holds a repentant sinner. The
other outside cross holds a blasphem
ing thief. Thou, O child, must mount
one of those cro"zes! Thou, O child,
must carry one of those crosses! Thou
alone can choose which one it shall be.
Which cross shall fie thy friend? Thou
alone must decide this question today.
“And with him they crucified two
thieves, one on his right hand and the
other on ids left.” Oh, my friend, wilt
thou not this Easter morn bravely and
nobly carry the cross of the repentant
thief?
The consocratfil rmss I'll bear
Till heaven shall set me free
And then cn homo, my crown to wear,
For there's a cross for me.
