The gospel as a great refreshmeat Is here set forth by Dr. Talmage, under a figure which will be found particularly graphic by those who have gone out as hunters to find game In the mountains; text. Psalm sill, 1, "As the hart panteth after the water brooks." David, who mast some time have seen a deer hunt, points us here to a hunted stag making for the water. The fascinating animal, called in my text the hart. Is the same animal' that In sacred and profane literature Is call ed the stag, the roebuck, the hind, the gazelle, the reindeer. In central Syria In Bible times there were whole pas ture fields of them, as Solomon sug gests when he says, 'I charge you by the hinds of-the field." Their antlers Jutted from the long grass as they lay down. No hunter who has been long In "John Brown's tract" will wonder that In the Bible they were classed among clean animals, for the dews, the showers, the lakes, washed them as clean as the sky. When Isaac, the patriarch, longed for venison, Esau shot and brought home a roebuck. Isaiah compares the sprlghtliness of the restored cripple of millennial times to the long and quick Jump of the stag, saying, "The lame shall leap as the hart." Solomon expressed his disgust at a hunter who. having shot a deer. Is too lazy to cook It, saying, "The sloth ful man roasteth not that which be took In bunting." But one day David, while far from the bosao from which he had been driven and sitting near the mouth of a lonely cave where he had lodged and c t&a Hate cf al ? aire aaars a pkJLX 9i oay ta awrta pmmtTL P earosa a tta jraTtrn aiwi 1MW it the clan for atartlaa al. aad le says to himself. "I wonder what those dogs are aftM." Then there a crackling In the brushwood and the loud breathing of some rushing won der of the woods, and tho antlers of a deer rend the leaves of the thicket. and by an Instinct which all hunters recognize ft plunges Into a pond or rake or river to cool Its thirst and at iha same time, by Its capacity for swifter and longer swimming, to get away from the foaming barriers. True to Xatnre. David says to himself: "Aba! That Is myselfl Saul after me. ADsaiom after me, enemies without number aft- er me. l am cnasea, ineir oioouj muz zles at my heels, barking at my good name, barking after my body, barking after my souL Oh, the hounds, the hounds! But look there!" says David. That hunted deer has splashed Into the water. It puts Its hot lips and nostrils Into the cool wave that washes the lathered flanks, and It swims away from the fiery canines, and It Is rree at last Oh, that I might find In the deep, vftde lake of God's mercy and consola tion escape from my pursuers I Oh, for the waters of life and rescue! As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God!" Some of you have Just come from the Adlrondacks, and the breath of the balsam and spruce and pine Is still on you. The Adlrondacks are now populous with hunters, and the deer are being slain by the score. Once while there talking with a hunter 1 thought I would like to see whether my text was accurate In its allusion, and as I heard the dogs baying a little way off and supposed they were on the track of a deer I said to the hunter In rough corduroy, "Do the deer al ways make for the water when they are pursued 7 He said: "Oh, yes, mis ter! You see, they are a hot and thirsty animal, and they know where the wa ter Is, and when they bear danger In the distance they lift their antlers and snuff the breeze and start for Racquet or Loon or Saranac, and we get Into our cedar shell boat or stand by the runway with rifle loaded ready to blaze away." My friends, that Is one reason why 1 Ilka the Bible so much. Its allusions are so true to nature. Its partridges are real partridges, Its ostriches real ostriches and Its reindeer real reindeer. I do not wonder that this antlered glory of the text makes the hunter's eye sparkle and his cheek glow and bis respiration quicken, to say nothing of Its usefulness, although It Is the most useful ef all game, Its flesh delicious. Its skin turned Into human apparel. Its sLaavs faaaleaMt lata a atrinca, Ms antlars paHlag aaaIad est " the shavings of Its haras ct4 as a ra- a a, I a V.

It Is a splendid appearance, that the painter's pencil falls to sketch, and only a hunter's dream on a pillow cf hemlocks at the foot of St. Hfgis Is to plcrcre. When, 20 miles from - I any settlement. It comes down at even tide to tlie lake's edge to drink among the lilj-pads, and. with Its sharp edged hoof, shatters the crystal of Long lake. it Is very picturesque. But only when, after miles of pursuit, with heaving sides and lolling tongue and eyes swimming In death, the stag leaps from cliff to cliff Into Upper Saranac can you realize how much David had suffered from his troubles and bow much be wanted God when he express ed himself In the words, "As the hart pantctb after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God." Well, now, let all those who have coming after them the lean hounds of poverty or the black hounds of perse cr.tlr;i or the spotted bounds of vlcls- slfuae or the pale hounds of death or who are In any wise pursued run to the wide, deep, glorious lake of divine solace and rescue. The most of the men and women whom I happen to know, at different times, If not now, have had trouble after them, sharp muzzled troubles, swift troubles, all devouring troubles. Many of you have made the mistake of trying to fight them. Somebody meanly attacked you, and you attacked them. They depre ciated you, and you depreciated ' thm, 'or they overreached you In a bargain, and you tried. In Wall street parlance, to get a corner on them. Or you have had a bereavement, and Instead of be ing submissive you are fighting that bereavement. You charge on the doc tors who have failed to effect a cure, or you charge on the carelessness cf the railroad company through which the accident occurred. Or you are a chronic Invalid, and you fret and wor ry and scold and wonder why you can not be well like other people, and you angrily charge oa the neuralgia or the laryngitis or the ague or the sick headache. The fact Is you are a deer at bay. Instead of running to the wa ters of divine eonsolatlon and slaking your thirst and cooling your body and soul In the good cheer of the gospel aa twimafaqr. away teat tm iftr f OS? t9Pft pat O tiX9 a Bom Um age X saw a Gas IfMa- dacks a Aokg lying across the read, aad he seemed unable to get up, aad 1 said to seme huaters, "What 1 the matter with that dogr They answered, "A deer hart him." and I saw ha had a groat swollva paw and a battered head, showing where the antlrs struck him. And the .probability Is that some of you might give a mighty clip to -your pursuers. You might damage their business, you might worry them Into 111 health, you might hurt them as much as they hurt you; but, after all, It i- not worth while. Tou only,iiave hurt a hound. Better be off for the Upper Saranac, Into which the moun tains of God's eternal strength look down and moor their shadows. As for your physical disorders, the worst strychnine you can take Is fretfulness, and the best medicine Is religion. I know people who were only a little disordered, yet have fretted them selves Into complete valetudinarianism, while others put their trust In God and came up from the very shadow of death and have lived comfortably 23 years with only one lung. A man with one lung, but God with him, Is better off than a godless man with two lungs. Some of you nave Deen ior a long time sailing around Cape Fear when you ought to have been sailing around Cape Good Hope. Dcnot turn back, but so ahead. The deer will ac complish more with Its swift feet than with Its horns. There are whole chains of lakes In the Adlrondacks, and from one height you can see 30 lakes, and there are said to be over 800 In the great wilder ness. So near are they to each other that your mountain guide picks np and carries the boat from lake to lake, the small distance between them for that reason called a "carry." And tho realm of God's word Is one long chain of bright, refreshing lakes, each prom ise a lake, a very short carry between them, and, though for ages the pursued have been drinking out of them, they are full up to the top of the green banks, and the same David describes them, and they seem so near together that In three different places he speaks of them as a continuous river, saying. "There Is a river the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God;" "Thou shalt make them drink of the rivers of thy pleasures;" "Thou greatly enrichest itiwlth the river of God, which Is full of water.",- Be Wise aa the Dee. But many of you have turned your back oa that supply and confront your trouble, and you are soured with your circumstances, and you are fighting so ciety, and yey are fighting a pursuing verkL ana tramaJea. tnssea ax anr- tx yi Kate hea-ray omfort, aava stole ye etsgp a4 tas rauad and lewer your head, aai ft Is almply antler against tooth. I do not blame you. Probably umder the aame circumstances I would have done worse. But you are all wroag. Ton need to do as the reladeer does, in Feb ruary and March It sbeds its boras. The Rabbinical writers allude to this resignation of antlers by the stag when they say of a man who ventuaes his money In risky enterprises he has hnrra It on the staz's horns, and a , , . prove iu u . T who has foolishly lost his fortune to K and find where the deer shed his horns. My brother, quit the antag onlsm of your circumstances, qu t misanthropy, quit complaint, ault pitching Into your pursuers. Be as wise as next spring will be the deer of the Adlrondacks.. Shed your horns. But very many of you who are wronged of the world and If In any assembly let ween the Atlantic and Pa cific oceans It were asked that all who bad been badly treated should raise both-their "hands, and full response should be made, there would be twice aa many hands Lifted aa persona pres ent I say many of you would declare. "We have always dose the beat we eould and tried to be useful, and why we become the victims of mallgnment or Invalidism er mishap la inscruta ble." Why, do you not know that the finer a deer and the more elegant lta proportions and the more beautiful lta bearing the more anxious the hunters and the hounds are to capture It? Had that roebuck a ragged far and broken hoofs and an obliterated eye and a limping gait the hunters would have said: "Pshaw! Don't let us waste our ammunition on a sick deer." And the hounds would have given a few sniffs of the track and thef darted off In another direction for better. game. But when they see a deer with antlers lifted In mighty challenge to earth and sky, and the sleek hide looks aa if it had been smoothed by invisible hands, and the fat sides inclose the richest pasture that could be nibbled from the bank of rills so clear they seem to have dropped out of heaven, and the stamp of Its foot defies the Jack shoot ing lantern and the rifle, the horn and the hound, that deer they will have Jf they mst needs break their neck In the rapids. So if there were no noble stuff in your make up. If you were a bifurcated nothing, If you were a for lorn failure, you would be allowed to go undisturbed, but the fact that the whole pack Is in full cry after you Is proof positive that you are splendid game and worth capturing. Therefore sarcasm draws on you . Its "finest bead;" therefore the world goes gun ning for you with Its best Winchester breechloader. Highest compliment. Is it to your talent or your virtue or your usefulness. Yon will be assailed in proportion to your great achievements. The best and the mightiest Being the world ever saw bad set after him all the hounds, terrestrial and diabolic, and they lapped his blood after the Calvarean massaere. The world paid nothing to its Redeemer but a bram ble, four spikes and a cross. 3bf a3a fcgflai tutst ' t2)tj aaa Aa -awas tSra tfsGC ?7l s ff" a reura afme a ft fas a treas ure la in aaftfeiitaCbtn the aext werfd. and they wenrfd, ff they cpald, express their evro faaUags In the.werds of the Baroaess of Nairn, at the close of her long life, when asked If ska wotria1 like to live tor life over a gala: Would - job h young again?

They are pur sued from youth to manhood and from manhood into old age. Very distin guished, are Lord Stafford's bounds and theEarl of Yarborough's hounds and the Duke of Rutland's hounds, but all of them put together do not equal. In number or speed or power to bunt down, the great kfennel of hounds of which Sin and Trouble are owner and master. But what Is a relief for all those pur sued of trouble and annoyance and pain and bereavement? My text gives it to you in a word of three letters, but each letter is a chariot If you would triumph, or a throne If you, want to be crowned, or a lake If you would slake your thirst yea, a chain of threo lakes G-o-d, the one for whom David longed and the one whom David found. You might as well meet a stag which, after its sixth mile of running at the topmost speed through thicket and gorge and with the breath of the dogs on its heels, has come in full sight of Schroon lake and try to cool Its pro jecting and blistered tongue with a drop of dew from a blade of grass as to attempt to satisfy an Immortal soul, when flying from trouble and sin, with anything less deep and high and broad and Immense and infinite and eternal than God. His comfort why, it em bosoms all distress. His arm It wrenches off all bondage. His band it wipes away all tears. His Chrlstly atonement It makes us all right with the past, and all right with the future, and all right with God, all right with man, and all right forever. Lamartlne tells us that King Nlm red said to bis three sons: "Here are three rases, and one la of clay, another of amber and another of gold. Choose now which you will have." The eldest son, having the first choice, chose the vase of gold, a which was written the -wHsai "Caaplray" aad WB-ea e?estt! it aaaa feacava f kS2l tie aeaeai aB( . saatSag cfiofea, efaose tire vase of amtr, ia serTbed1 with the ward "Glory," aar whan opened it contained the ashes r' these who were once called great. TL third son teok the vase of clay and. opening it, found it em.sy, but on tL? bottom of It waa inscribed the nam? of God. King NImrod asked bis court iers which vase they thought weighed the most. The avaricious men of his court saidnhe vase of gold, the poet. said the one of amber, but the wisest men said the empty Vase, because on letter of the name of God outwe!ghe a universe. . For him I thirst, for his grace I beg. on his promise I build my alL With out him I cannot be happy.

I am not a. prejudiced wit- a a f a. : ness. i cave noining against ui:s world., I have been one. of the mo.t forunate or, to use a more Chrlstiai word, one of the most blessed of men-. blessed In my parents. Messed In th place of my nativity, blessed In ru health, blessed la my fields of work. blessed In my aatural temperament, blessed In my family, blessed In my opportunities, blessed la a comfortable livelihood, blessed In the hope that my soul will go to heaven through the pardoning mercy of God, and my body, unless it be lost at sea or cremated in some . conflagration, will lie dowa among my kindred and friends, some already gone and others to come after me. Life to. many has been a disap pointment, but to me It has been a pleasant surprise, and yet 1 .declare that If I did not feel that God was now my friend and ever present help I should be wretched and terror struck. But I want more of him. ' I have thought over this text and preached tils sermon to myself until with all the aroused energies of my body.' mind and soul I can cry out, "As the hart panteth "after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God!" Through Jesos Christ make this God your God, and you can withstand any thing and everything, and that which affrights others will Inspire you as In time of earthquake, when an old Christian woman, asked whether she was scared, answered, "No; I am glad that I have a God who can shake the world," or as In a financial panic, when a Christian merchant, asked if he did not fear he would break, answered. 'Yes, I shall break when the Fiftieth Psalm breaks In the fifteenth verse, 'Gall upon me in the day of trouble; I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.' " O Christian men and women. pursued of annoyanoes and exaspera tions, remember that this hunt, wheth er a still hunt or a hunt In full cry, will soon be over. If ever a whelp looks ashamed and ready to sink out of sight, It Is when la the Adlrondacks a deer by one long, tremendous plunge into big Tuppef lake gets away from him. The disappointed canine swims In a little w.ay, but, defeated, swims out again and cringes with humiliating yawn at the feet of his master. And how abash ed and ashamed will all yoar earthly treublee fee wkea yea are tasked Into Sa & S GSZZ Cat . We are told ia Revoteties xxll, 1&. "Wftkout are dogs," by wales I eoa elude there is a whele kennel of hounds outside the fate of heaven, er. as whea a master goes la a deer, a is doer lies en the stepa waiting for hiini to come eut, se the troubles of this llfo may follow us t the shining doer, but they cannot get In. "vltnout are dogs." I have seen degs and owned dogs that I would aot be chagrin to see In the heavenly cfty. gome of the arrand old watchdogs who are the constabulary of the homes In solitary places and for years have been the only protection of wife and child, some of the shepherd dogs thai drive back the wolves and bark away the flock from going too near the precipice and some of the dogs whose neck and paw Land- seer, the painter, has made immortal would not find me shutting them out from the srate of stflning pearL Some of those old St Bernard dogs that have lifted Derishlng travelers out of the Alpine snow; the dog that John Brown, the Scotch essayist, saw ready to spring at the surgeon, lest, in re moving the cancer, he too much hurt the Door woman whom the dog. felt bound to protect, and dogs that we caressed In our childhood days, or that In later time lay down on the rug In seeming sympathy when our homes were desolated I say If some soul en tering heaven should happen to leave the eate ajar and these faithful crea tures should quietly walk In It would not at all disturb my heaven. But all those human or brutal hounds that have chased and torn and lacerated the world yea, all that now bitei or worry or tear to pieces shall be pro hibited. "Without are dogs." No place there for harsh critics or backbiters or despoilers of the reputatlen of others. Down with you to the kennels of dark ness and despair! The hart has reach ed the eternal water brooks, and the panting of the long chase Is quieted In still pastures, and "there shall be noth ing to hurt or destroy in all God's holy mount." Oh. when some of you get there It will be like what a hunter tells of when he was pushing his canoe far up north In the winter and amid Jhe ice floes and a hundred miles, as be thought, from any other human beings. He was startled one day as he beard a stepping on the ice, and be cocked the rifle, ready to meet anything that came near. He found a man, barefoot ed and Insane from long exposure, ap pro--.lag him.

And now do you not think the prayer in Solemon'a Song - where he compared Christ to a reindeer in the night would make an exquisitely appropriate peroration to my sermon.
