THE KOANOKK NEWS, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY V2, 1S.U AT THE TABERNACLE. DR. TALMAGE'S APPEAL TO THE IN . DIFFERENT AND PROCRASTINATING. The Beanementa of I.lfu Are Good Thine, and So Aro Wealth and Comfort, Frieml blp and Love; but One Thine Thou Lacki-at Yet. Bkookian. Feb. 1. The deep re ligious fooling manifested in Dr. Till male's congregations since his recent arousing "Apponl to Outsiders" has apparency encouraged hiiu to continue preaching distinctively evangelistic ser mons Today he delivered another discourse of the wine gospel type, both at the morning service in the Academy of Music, in this city, and at The Chris tian Herald service at night in the New York Academy of Music. His text was taken from Mark s, 21: "One thing thou lackest." The young man of the text was a Hplcndid nature We fall in love with him at the first glance Ho was ami able and frank and earnest and edu cated mid rellned mid respectable and moral, and yet he wa-s not a Christian. And so Christ addresses him in the words that 1 have read to von. "One thing thou lackest" I suppose that ! that text was no more appropriate to I the young man of whom I have spoken j than it is appropriate to a great multi- 1 tude of people in this audience There i lire many things in which you are not lacking For instance, you are not ; lacking m a good home. It. is perhaps no I more than an hour ago that you closed i the door, returning to see whether it j was well fastened, of one of the best j homes in this city The younger chil- j dren of the house already asleep, the i older ones, hearing your returning foot- j steps, will rush to the door to meet you. : And in these winter evenings, the i children at the stand with their lessons, j the wife plying the needle and you read ing the book or the paper, you feel that you have a good home. Neither aro you lacking in ttie. refinements and ! courtesies of life You understand the j polite phraseology of invitatiou, regard ! and apology You have on appropriate j apparel 1 shall wear no better dress j at the wedding than when I come to j the marriage of the king's son. If I am ; well clothed on other occasions I will I be in religious audience However i reckless I may be about tuy personal 1 appearance at other times, when I ; come into a consecrated assemblage I ; shall have on the best dress 1 have. We all understand the proprieties of j everyday life and the proprieties of Sabbath' life. WORLDLY StlCCKSS HAS IT9 VALUK. Neither are you lacking in worldly j success. You have not made as much ! money as you would like to make, but ! you have an income While others are ' false when they say they have no in ; come or are making no money, you have never told that falsehood You have had a livelihood or you have fallen upon old resources, vhich is just the same thing, for God is just as good to us when he takes care of us by a ; surplus of the past as by present sue cess While there are thousands of men with hunger tearing at the throat with the strength of a tiger's paw. not one of you is hungry Neither are you lacking in pleasant friendship You have real good friends. If the scarlet fever shouid come to night to your house, yo:i know very well who would come in and sit up ' with the sick one; or if death should come, you know who would come in and take your hand tight in theirs with ! that peculiar grip which means, "I'll , stand by you." and after the life has fled from the loved one, take you by , the arm and lead you into the ncxi room, and while you are gone to Green wood they would stay intheV'ouse and put aside the garments and the play things that might bring to your mind too severely your great loss. Friends? You all have friends. Neither are you lacking in your ad miration of the Christian religion. There is nothing that makes you so angry as to have a man malign Christ. You get red in the face and you say, "Sir. 1 want you to understand that though 1 u-'ii 0' myself a Christian. I don't like such things said as that in my store," and the mangoes olT. giving yon a partingsalutation. but yo;i hard ly answer him You are provoked be yond all bounds Many of you have been supporters of religion, and have given more to the cause of Chrit than some who profess his faith T.icrc is nothing that would please you more than to see your.soii or daughter stand llig at the altar of (Jurist, taking the vows ol the Christian. It luight be a little hard on you, and -might make you nervous anil agitated for a lirrle while, but you would be man enough to say "My child, that is right Go on I am glad you haven't been kept back by my example. I hope some day to join you." You believe all the doctrines of religion. A man out yonder says, "I am a sinner." You respond, "So urn I." Some one says, "I believe that Christ camo to save the world." You say, "So do I." Look ing at your character, at your sur roundings, I find a thousand tilings about which to congratulate you, and yet 1 must tell you in the love and fear of God, und with reference to my last account, "Ono thing thou lackest.1' TUK CHHISTIAN'S HAPPINKSS. You need, my friends, in the first place, the element of happiness. Some day you feel wretched. You do not know what is the matter with you. You say: "I did not sleep last night. I think that must be the reason of my restlessness ;" or, "I have eaten some thing that did not agree with nte, und I think that must be the reason." And you are unhappy. Oh, my friend-1, happiness does not de.iend uion phys ical condition! Some of the happiest people I have ever known have been those who have been wrapped in con sumption, or ntung with neuralgia, or burning with the slow lire of some fever. I never shall forget one man in my first parish, who in excruciation of body cried out: "Mr. Talmage, I for get all my pain in the love and joy of Jesus Christ. I can't think (if my suf ferings when I think of Jesus." Whv. his face was illumined ! There are young men in this house who would give testimony to show that there is no happiness outside of Christ, while, there is great joy in his service. There Sre young men who have not beun Christians iiiorj than two months who would stand up tonight, if 1 should ask them, and say in those two months they had more joy and satisfaction than in all the years of their frivolity and dissipation: Go to the door of that gin shop to night, and when the gang of young men come out ask them whether they are happy. They laugh along the street, and they jeer and they shout, but nobody lias any idea that they nre happy. 1 could call upon the aged men in this house to give testimony. There are aged men here who tried the world, and they tried religion, and they are willing to testify on our side. It was not long ago that mi old man arose in a praying circle and said: "Hrethren, I lost my son just as he graduated from college, and it broke my heart ; but I am glad now he is gone. He is at rest, away from all sorrow and from all trouble. And then, in 1S37, I lost all my property, and you see 1 am getting old, and it is rather hard upon me; but I am sure God will not let me suf fer He has not taken care of me for seventy-five years now to let me drop out of his hands." 1 went into the room of an aged man, his eyesight nearly gone, his hearing nearly gone, and what do you suppose he was talking about I The goodness of God and the joys of religion. He said "I would like to go over and join my wife on the other side of the Hood, and 1 am waiting until the Lord calls me. 1 am happy now. I shall bo happy there." What is it that gave that aged man se much satisfaction and rest '. Phys ical exuberance? No; it has all gone. Sunshine. IJecan.iotseeit. The voices of friends. He cannot hear them. It is the grace of God, that is brighter than noonday and that is sweeter than music. If a harpist takes a harp and finds that all the strings are broken but one string, be does not try to play upon it. Yet here I will show you an aged man the strings of- whose joy are all broken .save one, and yet he thrums it with such satisfaction, such melody that the angels of God stop the swift stroke of their wings and hover r.bout the place until the music ceases. Oh. re ligion's "ways are wajsof pleasantness, and all her paths are peace." And if you have not the satisfaction that is to be found in Jesus Christ 1 must tell you, with all the concentrated emphasis of my soul. "One thing thou lackest." CHRIST CALLS YOU TO rsUKUAKSS. I remark, again, that you lack the element of usefulness. Where is your hi'siness? You say it is No 45 such a street, or No. 2'"lsuch a street, or No. "i)0 such a street My friend immortal, your business is wherever there is a tear to be wied away or a soul to be saved. You may. before coming to Christ, do a great many noble things. Y'ou tike a loaf of bread to that starv ing man in the alley, but lie wants ini mortal bread. You take a pound of candles to that dark shanty. They want the light that springs from the throne of God. and you cannot take it because you have it not hi your own heart. You know that the (light of an arrow depends very much upon the strength of the bow. and 1 have to teli you that the best how that was ever made was made out of the cross of Christ, and when religion takes a soul and puts it on that, and pulls it back and lets it fly, every time it brings lovi a Saul or Goliath. Then- are people here of high social position, and larse means, r.nd cultured minds, who, if they would come into the kingdom of God. would set the city on lire with religious awakening. Oh. iiear von not the more than million voices of those in these two cities who are u:ii"i:ivrted .' Voices of those who in these two citie. ar- dying in their s.nsf They want light. They want bread They want Christ. They want heaven Oh. that the Lord would iiinl.c ou a flaming evangel! As for liuxi'lf I leivt sworn before high lieaw n that I will preach this gospel as well as I can. in all its fullness, until every liber of my body, and every f.ic ' ulty of my mind, and every passion of my soul, is exhausted. Iut we all i have a work to do. I cannot do your i work, nor can you do my work. God ; points us out the p!:ic where we are to i serve, and yet are there not people in : this house who are thirty, forty, fifty, I and sixty years of age, and yet have ' not begun the great work for which ! they were created? With every worldly ! equipment. "One thing thou lackest." Again, you lack tho element of per sonal safety. Whore aro those people I who associated with you twenty years ago? Where are those people that ftf- i teen years ago used to cross South i ferry or Fulton ferry with you to New York? Walk down tho street where , you were in business fifteen years ago : and see how all the signs have changed. I Where are the people gone? How j many of them are landed in eternity I cannot say, tint many, many. I went to the village of my boyhood. The houses were all changed. I passed one house in which onca resided a man who had lived an earnest, useful life, and he is in glory now. In the next house a miser lived. He devoured widows' houses, and spent his whole life in trying to make the world worse and worse. And he Ls gone the good man and the mivr both gone to the same place. Ah, did they go to the same place? It is an infinite absurdity to suppose tli-'in both in the same place. If the miser had a harp what tune did he play on it? Oh, my friends, I commend to you this religion as the only personal safety. When you die where are you going to? When we lea ve all these scenes, upon what scenes will we enter? When we were on shipboard, and we all felt that we must go to the bottom, was I right in saying to one next me, "1 wonder if we will reach heaven if we do go down to-night?" Was I wise or unwise in asking that question? I tell you that man is a fool who never thinks of the great future. TIIH HOI'K OK KTKHXAL I.UK. If you pay money you take a re ceipt. If you buy land you record the deed. Why? Heeauso everything is so uncertain you want it down in black and white, you say. For a house and lot twenty-live feet front bv one hundred feet deep, all security; but for a soul, vast as eternity, nothing, nothing! If some man or woman, standing in somo of these aisles, should drop down, where would you go to? Which is your destiny? Suppose a man is prepared for the future world, what dillerenee does it mako to hiui whether he goes to his home today or goes into glory ! Only this difference, if he dies he is better off. Where he had one joy on earth he will have a million in heaven. When ho has a small sphere here he will have a grand phere there. Ferhaps it would cost you sixty, or one hundred, or one hun dred and fifty dollars to have youi physical life insured, and yet free of barge 1 oiler you insurance on your immortal liie, payable not at your de cease, but now and to-morrow and every day and always. My hope in Christ is not so bright as many Christians I know, but I would not give it up for the whole universe in ono cash payment if it were offered me. It has been so much comfort to me in time of trouble, it has been so much strength to me when I have been assailed, it has been so much rest to me when I have been perplexed, and it is around my heart such an encasement of satisfaction and blessedness that I can stand here before (tod and sav: "Take away my health, take awav mv life, take everything rather than rob me of this hope, this plain, simple hope which 1 have in Jesus Christ niv Lord. I must have this robe when the last chill strikes through me. I must have this light when all other lights go out in the blast that comes up from tho cold Jordan. I must have this sword with which Jo fight my way through all those foes on mv wav heavenward." When I was in London I saw there the wonderful armor of Henrv VIII und Ivhv.ird III. And yet I have to tell you that there is nothing in chain mail or brass plate or gauntlet or hal herd that makes a man so safe as the armor in which the Iird God clothes his dear children. Oh, there is a safety in religion. You will ridedown all vour foes. I.o ik out for that man who has the strength of the Lord God with him. In olden times the horsemen used to ride into battle with lifted lance, and the enemy fled the field. The Lord on the white horse of victory, ami with lifted lances of IMvine Ftrength, rides into the battle and down goes the spiritual foe. while the victor shouts the triumph through the Lord Jesus Christ. As n matter of personal safety, my dear friends, you must have this religion. Tilt: YOUNG HAVK THKIK TRIALS. I apply my subject to several classes of eople before me. First, to that great multitude of young people in this house. Sonic of these young men are in boarding houses. They have but few social advantages. They think that no one cares for their souls. Many of thetn are on 'small salaries, and they are eramx'd and bothered perpetually, and sometimes their heart fails them. Young man. to-night, at your bedroom door on the third floor, you will hear a knocking. It will be the hand of Jesus Christ, the young man's friend, saying, "Oh, young man, Hmrcoino In; I will help thee, i will comfort thee, I will deliver thee." Take the Hible out of tho trunk if it has been bidden away. If you have not the couraa-e to lay it on the sief or table, take that Bible that w:is given to you by some loved one, take it out of the trunk and by it down on the bottom of t'.ie chair, then kneel down beside, it, and read and pray, and pray and read, until all your dis turbance is gone, and you feel that peace which neither earth nor hell can rob you of. Thy father's God, thy mother's God. waits for thee, oh, young man. "Escape for thy life!" Escape now I "One thing thou lackest!" But 1 apply this subject to the oged not many here not many in any assemblage. People do not live to get old. That Is the general rule. Hern and there an aged man in tho house. I tell you the truth. You have lived long enough in this world to know that it cannot satisfy an immortal nature. I must talk to you nioro reverentially than I do to these other people, wliile at the same time I speak with (treat plainness. 0 father of the weary itep, O moth- er bent down under the ailments of life, has thy God ever forsaken thee? Through all these years who 1i;l been your best friend? Seventy years of mercies! Seventy years of food and clothing! Oh, how many bright morn ings! How many glorious evening hours you have seen ! O father, moth er, God has lecn very good to you. Do you feel it? Some of you have children and grandchildren ; the former cheered your young life, the latter twine vonr grav locks in their tinv fingers. Has all the goodness that God J has becit making pass before you pro- I duced no change in your feeling, and j must it be said of you. notwithstanding all this. "One thing thou lackest!" Oh, if you could only feel the hand of Christ smoothing the cares out of wrinkled faces! Oh, if you could only feel the warm arm of Christ steadying your tottering steps! I lift my voice loud enough to break through the deaf ness of the ear while I cry out, "One thing thou lackest." It was an impor tunate appeal a young man made in a prayer meeting when he rose up and said: "lo pray for my old father, lie is 70 years of age, and ho don't love Christ." That father passed a few more steps on in life, and then ho went down, lie never gave any intimation that he had chosen Jesus. It is a very hard thing for an old man to become a Christian. I know it is. it is so hard a thing that it cannot be done by any human work; but God Almighty can doit by his omnipotent grace; he can bring you at tho eleventh hour at half past 11 at one minute of 11 he can bring you to tho peace and the joys of the glorious gosel. I must mako application of 1 his sub ject also to those who aro prospered. Have you, my friends, found that dol lars and cents are no permanent con solation to tho soul? Y'ou have largo worldly resources, but have you no treasures in heaven? Is an embroid ered pillow all that you want to put your dying head on? Y'ou have heard people all lost week talk about earthly values. Hear a, plain man talk about the heavenly. lo you not know it will be worse for you, 0 prosered man, if you reject Christ, and reject him finally that it will be worse for you than those who had it, hard in this world, iK'cause the contrast will make the discomfiture so much more appall ing? As the hart bounds for the water brooks, ,-is the roe speeds down the hillside, speed thou to Christ. "Es cape for thy life, look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; es cape to the mountain, lest thou be con sumed !" CONSOLATION KOK TIIK l'OOIi ALSO. I must mako my application to an other class of persons the poor. When you cannot pay your rent when it is due, havo you nobody but the landlord to talk to? When tho Hour has gone out of the barrel, and you have not ten cents with which to go to the bakery, and your children are tugging at your dress for something to cat, have you nothing but the world's charities to ap peal to? When winter comes, and there aro no coals, and the ash barrels have no more cinders, who takes care of you? Have you nobody but the overseer of the poor? But I preach to you a poor man's Christ. If you do not have in the winter blankets enough to cover you in the night, I want to tell vou of him who had not where to lav his head. If you lie on the bare floor, j I want to tell you of him who had for a j pillow a hard cross, and whose foot i bath was tho ut reaming blood of his ! own heart. I Oh. you poor man! Oh, you poor woman! Jesus understands yourcae altogether. "Talk, it right out to him to night. Get down on your floor and say: "Lord Jesus Christ, thou wast poor and I am poor. Help me. Thou art rich now, and bring me up to thy riches!" Do you think God would cast you off? Will ho? You might as well think that a mother would take the child that feeds on her breast and dash its life out as to think that God would put aside roughly those who have (led to him for pity and compassion. Yea, the prophet says, "A woman may for get her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb, but I will not forget thee." If you have ever been on the sea you have been surprised on tho first voyage to find there are so few sails in sight. Sometimes you go along two, three, four, five, six and seven days, and do not see a single sail; but when a sail does coma in sight the sea glasses aro lifted to tho eye, tho vessel is watched, and if it come very near then tho cap tain through tho trumpet cries loudly across the water, "Whither bound?" So you and I meet on this sea of life. Wu come and we go. Soum of us hnv never met before. Somo of us will never meet again. But I hail you across the sea, und with reference to tho last great day, and with reference to tho two great worlds, I cry across the water. "Whither bound? whither bound ,'" I know what service that craft was made for; but hast thou thrown over board tho compass? Is thcro no helm to guide it? Is tho ship at tho mercy of the tempest? Is there no gun of distress booming through the storm? With priceless treasures with treas ures aboard worth more than all tho Indies wilt thou never eomo up out of the trough of that sea? O Lord God, lay hold of that man ! Son of God, if thou wert ever neexled anywhere, thou art needed hero. There are so many sins to be iwirdoned. There are so many wounds to bo healed. There are so many souls to be saved. Help, Jasusl Help, HolyGhostl Help, min IsWring angels from tho tlirone I Help, all sweet uie-.iories of the past! Help, all prayers for our future deliverance! Oh, that now, in this the accepted time and the day of salvation, you would hear the voiea of mercy and live. Taste and sec that the Lord is gracious. In this closing moment of the sendee, when everything in the house is so fa vorable, when everything is so still, when God is so loving, and heaven Ls so near, drop your sins and take, Jesus. Do not cheat yourself out of heaven. Do not do that. God forbid that at the last, when it is too late to correct the mistake, a voice should rise from the pillow or drop from tho throne, ut tering just four words four sad. anni hilating words, ""One thing thou lack est" ODDS AND ENDS.

If every boy learned a trade thor oughly the market would not be glutted as at present with unskilled labor, and there would not bo so many young men sitting around in offices trying to make themselves generally useful at $5 to 6''.' a week, wliile they are learning scarcely anything of actual business and are on the road to nowhere in par ticular. This is the situation, and Col. Auehmuty, of the New York trade school, described the remedy in an ex tremely interesting and valuable lecture at the board of trade rooms Wednes day evening. Tho apprenticeship sys tem has passed out of vogue in the United States, and the majority of skilled workmen aro foreign born. A young man nowadays must pick up his trade, at best in a slipshod manner, in such a position as ho elm get. The trade unions are hostile to tho training of apprentices; their policy is to cor ner skilled labor. The trade school is tho solution of the problem. The 2.503 young men who have learned trades i:i Col. Auchmutv's school have earned $2.50 to $5 per day on leaving, and testify that tho school has been tho making of them. Plaster ers havo gone right out and earned $1 a day. Bright young men master the course in plumbing in three months, in some instances, and fin J work awaiting them on graduating. Tho work of the bricklayers who lear;i tho trade there is far superior to tho average contract work. Tho old system of training in duces a boy to leave school to find em ployment in a workshop. The trado school system encourages him to remain at school, to go to col lego if ho can, and then learn his trado in a trado school. Thirty -one of tho forty-four states of the Union aro repre sented at tho New York school. Col. Auehmuty asks what more useful and enduring gift Springfield could receive from th: business men than such a school. Springfield Homestead. A lll(r Unilirrllu.
