TALMAGE THE BROOKLYN DIVINE'S SUNDAY SERMON. TtXT: "Seek ye theLord while He may b ioung isaian iv., e. . Isaiah Btands head and sHoulders above the other Old Testament authors in vivid do scrlptiveness of Christ. Other prophets ve an outline of our Saviour's features. Some of them present, as it were, the side face of tJ&rist, others a bust of Christ, but Isaiah pives us the full lenarth portrait of Christ Other Scripture writers excel in some things zeKiei more weird, David more pathetic, Solomon more epigrammatic, , Habakkuk more sublime but when you want to see Christ coming out from the gates of prophe ey in all His grandeur and glory you involnn- tarny turn to isatan. so that u the prophe cies in regard to Christ might be called the "Oratorio of the Messiah" the writing of isaian is tne "Halleluiah Chorus," where all the batons wave and all the trumpets come in. Isaiah was not a man picked up out of insigntncance oy inspiration. He was known nnd honored. . Josephus and Philo and Rlraoh extolled him in their writings. What Paul was among the apostles Isaiah was among tne propnets. My text finds him standing on a moun tain of inspiration, looking out into the fu ture, beholding Christ advancing and anx ious that all men might know Him. His voioe rings down the ages, "Seek ye the Lord while He may be found." "Oh." says some one, ''that was for plden times." No, my hearer. If you have traveled in other lands, you have taken a oiroutar letter of credit from some banking house in New York and in St. Petersburg or Venice or Bome or Melbourne or Calcutta, you pre sented that letter and got financial help im mediately. And I want you to understand that the text, instead of being appropriate for one age or for one land, is a circular let ter for all ages and for all lands, and where ever it is presented for help the help comes. 'Seek ye the Lord while He may be found." I come to-day with no hair spun theories of religion, with no nioe distinctions, with no elaborate disquisition, but with an urgent call to personal religion. The gospel of Chri6t is a powerful medicine. It either kills or oures. There are those who say: "I would like to become a Christian. I'have been waiting a good while for the right kind of influences to come," and still you are waiting. You are wiser in worldly things than you are in religious thinsrs. If you want to get to Albany, you go the Grand Central Depot or to the steamboat wharf, and having got your ticket you do not sit down on the wharf or sit in the depot. You get aboard the boat or train. And yet there are men who say they are waiting to get to heaven, waiting, waiting, but not with in telligent waiting, or they would get on board the line of Christian Influences that would bear them into the kingdom of God. Now, you know very well that to seek a thing is to search for it with earnest endeav or. If you want to see a certain man in this city, and there is a matter of $10,000 connected with your seeing him, and you cannot at first And him, you do not give up the search. You look in the directory, but cannot find the name. You go In circles Where you think perhaps he may mingle, and having found the part of the city where he lives, but perhaps not knowing the street, you go through street after street and from block to blook, and you keep on searching for weeks and for months. You say, "It is a matter of $10,000 whether I see him or not." Oh, that men were as persistent in seeking for Christ! Had you one-half thatpersistence you would long ago have found Him who is the joy of the for given spirit. - We may pay our debts, we may attend church, we may relieve the poor, we may be public benefactors, and yet all our life disobey the text, never see God, never gain heaven. Ob, that the Spirit of God would help me, while I try to show you, in carrying out the idea of my text, first how to seek the Lord and in the next place when to seek Him. I remark, in the first place, you are to seek the Lord through earnest and believing prayer. God is not an autocrat or a despot seated on a throne, with His arms resting on brazen lions and a sentinel pacing up and down at the foot of the throne. God is a father seated in a bower, waiting for His chil dren to come and climb on His knee and get His kiss and His benediction. Prayer is the cup with which we go the "fountain of living water" and dip up refreshment for our thirsty soul. Grace does not come to the heart as we set a cask at the corner of the house to catch the rain in the shower. It is a pulley fastened to the throne of God, which we pull, bringing the blessing. I do not care so much what posture you take in prayer nor how large an amount of voice you use. You might get down on your face before God, if you did not pray right inwardly there would be no response. You might cry at the top of your voice, and unless you had a believing spirit within your cry would not go further up than the shout of a plowboy to his oxen. Prayer must be believing, earnest, loving. You are in your house some summer day and a shower comes up, and a bird, affrighted, darts into the window and wheels about the room. You seize it. You smooth its ruffled plumage. You feel its fluttering heart. You say. "Poor thing, poor thing!" Now, a prayer goes out of the storm of this world into the window of God's mercy, and He catches it, and He feels its fluttering pulse, and He puts it in His own bosom of affection and safety. Prayer is a warm, ardent, pulsating exercise. It is an electric batterv whioh, touched. luniis io me tnrone oi uoa. it is tne diving bell in which we go down into the depths of God's mercy and bring up "pearls of great price." There was an Instance where prayer made the waves of the Gennesaret solid as stone pavement. Oh, how many wonderful things prayer has accomplished! Have you ever tried it? In the days when the Scotch Covenanters were persecuted and the enemies were after them one of the head men among the Covenanters prayed: "Oh, Lord, we be as dead men unless Thou shalt help us! Oh, Lord, throw the lap of Thy cloak over these poor things!" And instantly a Scotch mist developed and hid the persecuted from their persecutor the promise literally fulfilled, ," While they are yet speaking I will hear." Have you ever tried the power of prayer? God says. "He is loving and faithful and pa tient." Do you believe that? You are told that Christ came to save sinners. Do you believe that? You are tol 1 that all you have to do to get the pardon of the gospel is to ask for it Do you believe that? Then come to Him and say: "O Lord, L know Thou canst not lie. Thpu hast told me to come for pardon and I could get it. I come, Lord. Keep Thy promise and liberate my captive soul." Oh, that you might have an altar in the parlor, in the kitchen, in the store, in the Sara, for Christ will be willing to come again to the manger to hear prayer. He would come to your place of business as He con fronted Matthew, the tax commissioner. If a measure should come before Congress thaf? you thought would ruin the Nation, how you would send in petitions and lernonstrances. And yet there has been enough sin in your heart to ruin it fo'". M you have nevr remonstrated or petitioned against it. rr your physical health failed and you had the means, you would go and spend the summer in Germany and the winter in Italy, and you would think it a very cheap outlay if you hadtoffo all round the earth to get back your physical health, nave you made any effort, any expenditure, any exertion for your immortal and spiritual health? Oh. that you. might now besrin to seek after God with earnest prayer! Some of you have been working for years and years for. the support of your families. Have you given one-half day to the irorking out of vour salvation with fear nd trembling? You ennrte here with an ealnrrt purpose, I take iv, as I have come hlthe with an earnest puree. -3. and we meet face tf fioe, and X tsll you. first of all, if you want to And the Lord you must pray and pi"fty ana pf Ay. . I remark again, you must seek the Lord through Bible study. The Bible is the new est book in the world. "Oh," you say "it Was made hundreds of years ago. and the learned men of Einc James translated it hundreds of years ago." I oonfute that idea by telling you it is not five uUntttes old when God by His blessed Spirit retranslates It into tne JiCfirt , If you wilt, in the seeking of the Wav of We through Scripture study, implow God's Ught to fall upon the page, you will find that these promises are not one second hid, and that they drop straight from the throne of God into your heart. There are many people to whom the Bible does not amount to much. It they merely look at the outside beauty, why, it will no more lead them to Christ than Washington's farewell address, or the Koran of Mohammed, or the Shaster of the Hindoos. - It is the in ward light of God's word you must aret. I 'went up to the Church of the Madeleine in Paris and looked at the doors, whioh are the most wonderfully 'constructed I ver saw, and I eould have staid there for a whole week, but I had only a little time. 8o, hav . ing glanced at the wonderful carving on the doors, I passed in and looked at th radiant altars and the soulptured dome. Alas."that so many stop at-the outside door of God's holy word, looking at the rhetorical beauties instead of roinor in and looking at the altars of sacrifice and the dome of God's meroy and salvation that hovers over penitent and be lieving souls! Oh. mv friends, if von merely want to study the laws of language, do not go to the Bible. It was not made for that. Take "Howes Elements of Criticism." It will be better than the Bible for that. If you want to study metaphysics, better than the Bible win bo the writings of William Hamilton. But if you want to know how to have sin pardoned and at last to gain the blessedness of heaven search the Scriptures, "for in them ye have eternal life." When people are anxious about theirsouls, there are those who recommend good books. That is all right. But I v.'ant to tell you that the Bible is the best book under such olroum stanees. Baxter wrote "A Call to the Un converted," but the Bible is the best call to imoonverted. Philip Doddridge wrote "The Bise and Progress of Beliglon in the Soul," but the Bible is the, best rise and progress. John Angell James wrote "Advice to the Anxious Inquirer." but the Bible is the best advice to the anxious inquirer. Oh, the Bible is the very book you need, anxious and inauirine soul! A dying soldier said to his mate, "Comrade, give me a drop!" The comrade snook: up tne ennteeu ana said. "There isn't a drop of water in the canteen." "Oh," said the dying soldier, "that's not whnt I want. Feel in my knapsack for my Bible," and his comrade found the Bible and read him a few of the gracious promises, and the dying soldier said: "Ah, that's what I want. There isn t anything use tne muie for a dying soldier, is there, my comrade?" Oh. blessed book while we live! Blessed book when we die! I remark again we must seek God through church ordinances. "What," say you, "can't a man be saved without going to church?" I reply there are men, suppose, in glory who have never seen a cnurcn, out tne onurcn is the ordained means by which we are to be brought to God, and if truth affects us when we are alone it affects us more mightily when we are in the assembly, the feelings of others emphasizing our own feelings. The great law of sympathy comes into play, and a truth Oat would take hold only With tile grasp ot a sick man beats mightily against the soul with a thousand heart throbs. When you oome into the religious circle. come only with one notion and only for one purpose to find the way to Christ. When I see people critical about sermons, and criti cal about tones of voice, and critical about sermonio delivery, they make me think of a man in prison. He is condemned to death, but an officer of the government brings a pardon and puts it through the wloket ot the prison and says: "Here is your pardon. Come and get it. "What! Do you expect me to take that pardon offered with such a voice as you have, with such an awkward manner as you have? I would rather die than so compromise my rhetorical notions." . 1. i.1 A - . AU-A TT- i.Unn 14. Ail, tun uinu uuot uvi say luai. no lanoa u. It is his life. He does not care how it is handed to him. And if to-day that pardon from the throne of God is offered to our souls should we not seize it regardless of all nonessentials? But I oome now to the last part ot my text. It tells us when we are to seek the Lord, "while He may be found. When is that? Old age? You may not see old age. To-morrow? You may not see to-morrow. To-night? You may not see to-night. Now! Oh, if I could only write on every heart in three capital letters that word N-O-W now! Sin is an awful disease. I hear people say with a toss of the head and with a trivial manner, "Oh, yes, I'm a sinner." Sin is an awful disease. It is leprosy. It is dropsy. It is consumption. It is all moral disorders In one. Now. you know there is a crisis in a disease. Perhaps you have had some illus tration of it in your family. Sometimes the physician has called, and he has looked at the patient and said: "That oase was sim- Ele enough, but the crisis has passed. If you ad called me yesterday or this morning, I eould have cured the patient. It is too late now. The crisis passed. " Just so it is in the spiritual treatment ot the soul there is a crisis. . There are some here who can remember in stances in life when, if they bad bought a certain property, they would have beoome very rich. A few acres that would have cost them almost nothing were offered them. They refused them. Afterward a large vil lage or city sprung up on those acres of ground, and they see what a mistake they made in not buying the property. There was an opportunity of getting it. It never came back again. And so it is in regard to a man's spiritual and eternal fortune. There is a chance. If you let that go, perhaps it never comes back. Certainly that one never comes back. A gentleman told me that at the battle Ot Gettysburg he stood upon a height looking off upon the conflicting armies. He said it was the most exciting moment of his life. Now one army seeming to triumph and now the other. After awhile the host wheeled in such a way that he knew in Ave minutes the whole question would be deoided. He said the emotion was almost unbearable. : There is just such a time to-day with you the forces of light on one side, the forces of death on the other side, and in a 'few moments the matter will be settled for eternity. There is a time whioh mercy has set for leaving port. If you are ou board before that you will get a passage for heaven. If you are not on board, you miss your passage for heaven. As in law nmirft, h ase is some, rimes adjourned rrom term to term ana rrona year to year till the bill of costs eats up the entire estate, so there are men who are ad journing the matter of religion from time to time and from year to year until heavenly bliss is the bill ot costs the man will have to pay for it. . Way defer this matter, oh, my dear hearer? Have you any idea that sin will wear out; that it will evaporate; that it will relax its grasp; that you may find religion as a man accidentally finds a lost pocketbook? Ah, no! No man ever became a Christian by ac cident or by the relaxing of sin. The em-, barraesments are all the time Increasing. Tho hosts of darkness are recruiting, and the longer you postponejthis matter the steeper the path will become. I ask those men who are before me now whether in the ten or fif teen years they have passed in the postpone ment of these matters' they have come any nearer God or heaven? I would not be afraid to challenge this whole audience, o far as they may not have found the peace of the gospel, in regard to the matter. Your hearts, vou are willing frankly to tell me. are becoming harder and harder, and that if you come to Christ it wiu.be more ox nn undertaking now than it ever would have been before. The throne of judgment will soon be set, and if you have anything to do toward your eternal salvation you had better do it now, for the redemption of your soul i J precious, and it eeaseth forever, , ' ' Oh. if men could only catch one glimpse of Christ, I know they would love Himl Your heart leaDs at the sight .of a glorious sunrise or sunset Can you be Without omo tion as the Sun of Righteousness rises be hind Calvary and sets behind Joseph's sepuU chor? He is a blessed Saviour. Every Nn tion has ltd type of beauty. There is Ger man beauty, and Swiss beauty, and Italian beauty, and English beauty, but t care not ' in what lttnd A man first looks at Christ he pronounces Him "Chief among 10,000, And the one altogether lovely." The diamond districts Of Brazil are care fully guarded, and a man does not. get in there except by a pass from tha Government, but the love of Christ is a diamond district we may all enter and pick up treasures for eternity. - "To-day, if ye will hear His voioe. harden not your hearts." . .. Take the hint of the text that I have no time to dwell upon the hint that there is a time when He oannot be found. There was a man in this otty eighty years ot age whoa said to a clergyman who came in, "Do you" think that a man eighty years of age can get pardoned?" "Oh, yes' said the clergyman. The old man said: "I can't. When I was twenty years of age--I am now eighty years the Spirit of God came to my soul, and I felt the importance of attending to these . things, but I put it off, I rejected God. and since then I have had no feeling." "Well," said the ministor, "wouldn't you like to havo me pray with you?" Yes," replied the old man, "but it will do no good. You can pray with me it you like to." The ministor knelt down and prayed and commended the man's soul to God. It seemed to have no effect upon him. After awhile the last hour of the man's life came, and through his delirium a spark ot intelligence seemed to flash, and with his last breath he said, "I shall never be forgiven."

PURGATORY AND FARADISB COM PARED BT'A MAN WHO HAS SEEN BOTH. A Miracle Worked in the Ritrl Releases of Borodino Creates a Sensation. (.From the Evening Newt, Syracuse, N. 3') Albert Applebee was a very sick man. He jhad been ailing for months nnd had bean (compelled to remain home, unable to attend to his business. His friends stood or sat about the few small stores in the village of Borodino and discussed his sad condition. Applebee was a carpender, and a good one too, but since his strange malady overtook him he had not shown any dispotlon to do any work. Life had lost its charms tor him, he became a misanthrope and lost in every thing. His friends advised him and the lo cal doctors tried their skill on him but it was of no avail. Although they no doubt diag nosed his oase correctly, he grew worse despite their efforts. But he recovered and it has made such a stir in the small town that a News reporter was sent out to Borodino to investigate. He drove over and found Mr. Applebee hard at work on the roof of a house he was building. "Well, it was just this way," began the carpenter, who is a good-looking man of about fifty summers. "In the fall of 1890 1 had a siege of grip. It was a pretty rough time for me as I was very sick and I never expected to go out again except feet first in a coffin. But I recovered after a long sickness but was left with an ailment which was quite ias dangerous and infinitely more painful X had scrofula in my head for two years and a half or over and there was a sickening dis charge from my right ear. I took about every medicine known to the medical frater nity but could get no benefit "I was also troubled with a severe pain in the stomach and indigestion, which made me Ifeel that life was not worth living. Last fall 1 began taking a medicine known as Dr. (Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, which were recommended by a friend whose wife had read of them in some of the country papers. But I gave it a trial and was sur prised to find that it benefited me. I tried more and persevered and at last, thank God, I was cured. My ear has discontinued dis charging and for the past three months I have been perfectly well. I make these state ments merely because I think the. world should be acquainted with this remarkable remedy." Several of Mr. Applebee's neighbors were seen by the reporter and they in turn ex pressed their confidence in.Drl Williams Pink Pills after seeing the wonderful change they had wrought on him. One said the cure wasstmply wonderful as the man was a total Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contains all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves.
