TALMAGS A Di-conrse Especially Appropriate t: 'inm .season cf tba Year Pre iciicd Amid tha Fragrant Fields ot ; Western Grata. Dr. T&lmage preached to a vast con :' iregatiou at Glen wood, Colorado. Ilk ecrinon wai redolent with the fragranct of the harvest fields of tho west sad Indicates that La has found material foi gospel lessons in hii surroundings. III? text Is taken from Ruth ii; 3: "And sh went and camo and gloanei ia tho field after tho reapars; and her hap was U light on a part of the field belonging ontj Boa z, who was of the kindred of Eli ma lech." The eloquent preacher said; ! Within a 'few week I havo been in Korth Carolina, Virginia, Pennsylvania, . How York, Ohio, Michigan, .Canada. I ndiana, Illinois. : Kentucky, Missouri, - and their are oue great harvost field, and no Reason can be more enchanting in an country the season, of harvest. - - . Tho time that Ruth and Naomi arrive at Bethlehem' is harvest time. It was tho old custom when a sheaf fell from a load in the harvest field for tho reaper to refuse to gather it up; that was to hi lift or tha poor who might happen t come that way. If there were hahdf ul cf grain scattered across the Sold aftet t.ha inn. In lia.rvAt lad - hAArt T( nndJ trt atead of raking it, as farmers do now, ii was, by tho custom ol tho land, leit In It 4 dIap.a. an that thn noor romlnar alone .that way might glean It and get thoii .bread. Hut,: you say, VWhat Is the usi cf ail , these harvest fields to Ruth ana Naomi? Jxaoml is too old and feeble to go out and toil in the sun; and can you xpect that Ruth, the young and tho beautiful, should tan hor cheeks an? ' blister her hands in her harvest field? . - Ioaz owns a large farm, and ho gooi out -to see the reapors gather in , th rain. Coming there, right bohind thn Aoldsa, eautlf ul r womanTgtoliuraitf . foian more fit to bend to a harp or si; upon a throne than to stoop among the sheaves. Ah, that was an eventful day! " " IOVE AT FIRST sight. r" It was love at first sight.

Out of so dark 9 night did there ever dawn so bright I ieara in the first ylaco from this sub ject how trouble develops, character. It was bereavement, poverty and exile that developed.

I once asked an aged mas in regard tt bis pastor, who was a very brilliant man. "Why is it that your pastor, so vert brilliant, seems to have so little too doruea8, tar his sermons?" "Well, hr replied,' thje reason is our pastor ha never , had; any . trouble. When misfor tune comes upon him his " style wii: be different." After a while the Lor took a child out of that pastor's house. .as brilliant as he was before, oh, th warmth, the tenderness of his discourses' j Tho fact is that trouble 13 a great edu-'! catorv.. You soo sometimes & musician sit ' tfu.vnatan instrument,, and his execu tion Is cold and formal and unfeeling. 1 he reason is that all his life he has beo prospered. But let misfortune or be reavement come to that man, and he sit Iowa at the instrument, and you dlscovoi the pathos in tho first sweep of tho keys -Mbdortuno and trials are great eduea tors. , A young doctor come into & sick rooic whore there Js a dying, child.

It took all the hostilities against the Scotch Covenanters and the fury of Lord Claver house to devolopo James Renwlck and Andrew Melville, and II ugh McKallthe glorious martyrs of Scotch history. It took tho stormy sea, and the Dea.etnbei blast, and the desolate New Englant coast, and the warwhoop ot savages to show forth the prowess of the Pilgrim fathers . V... j , When amid the storms they sang, . And the stars beard, and the sea; And the sounding aisles of the dim wood Rang to the anthem of the free. It took all our past national distresses. and It takes all our present national sorrows, to lift up our nation on thai high career where it will march along after the foreign despotisms that have mocked and the tyrannies that have jeered shall be swept down under the omnipotent wrath of God, who hato oppression, and who, by the strength m ol his own red right arm, will make all men free. And so it if Individually, and in the family, and In the church, and in the world, that through darkness and storm and trouble men, women, churches, nations, are developed. ; i; THE BEAUTY OF FRIENDSHIP. . Again, I see In my text thebeauty oJ unfaltering friendship. ': I suppose thei were plenty of friends for Naomi whlli she was In prosperity. But of all her ac quaintances, how many were willing t; trudge off with her toward Judea, when she had to .mako that . lonely journey ' One the , heroine of my text. One absolutely one. I suppose whon Naomi's husband was livlug, and they had plenty of money, and all thingi went woll. they had a groat many callers. But I suppose that 'after her hus band died, and her property wont, ana she got old and poor, she was not trou bled very much with callers. All tht birds that sang In the bower while the sun shone have gono to thoir nests, nor the night has fallen. ' ' Oh, these beautiful' sunflowers thai spread out thoir color In the morning hour! But they are always asleep when the sun goes down! Job had plenty ol friends when he was the richest man in Ur; but when his property went and the trials came, then there were none sc much that pestered as Ellphaz th Temanlte, and Blldad the Shuhlte aut Zophar the Naaraathlta, is - ? -''Life often seems to be a;' mere game where the successful player pulls dowa 'alrihe other men into his own lap. Lot suspicions arise about a man's , char acter, arTd he becomes like a bank. In panic, and all Ine -imputations rush on him and break down in a -day that char acter which v In due time " wduldhave strength to defend itself. There" 'ars reputations that have been half a century In building which sro down under some moral eiposure, as a vast temple is cot I sumcd by tha touch of a sulphuroui ! match. A hog can uproot a century I plant. . In this world, so full of - beartlossnoss and hyp .0y,hbw thrilling It Is to flm so mo (Jrliid as faithful in days of adver sity "as in days of prosperity! .David bad such a friend. In Hushai; the Jews hsa such a friend - In Mordecal, who uove-. forgot -their cause; Paul had such friend ; In Oneslphorus, who visltod hiui In jail; Christ .had such In tho Marys who adhered to him on the cross; Naom bad such a ono In Ruth. who cried out, "Entreat me not to leare thee, or to re turn from: following after thee; tot whither thou goest, I will go; and whorw thou lodgest I .will lodge; thy people shall bo my peoplo, and thy God my God: where thou diest will I die, and then wilrt bo buried; the Lord do so to me am r more also, if aught but death part thei and me." FROM DABKJfESS TO DAY.' ' Again, 1 loam from this subject thai paths which open in hardship and dark ness often come out in places of . joy. When Ruth started from Moab toward 1 Jerusalem, to go along with her motho; in-law, l supposo the people saidL "Oh what a foolish creature to go away frou her fathers house,;. to go olr with, toward tl won't live te They will b" a . poor old woman land of Judoa! They get' across the dessert drowned in the sea, or the jackals of tl wildernoss will destroy them. : It was i- very dark morning when Ruth startea fit with raomi; but benoia her in my text in the harvest field of Boaz, to bi affianced to one of the lords' of the land, and become ono of the grandmothers ot Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory. . And so it often is that a path which starts very darkly ends very brightly ' : When you started out for heaven, oh! how dark was the hour of conviction bow Sinai thundered and devils -' tor mented and the darkness thlckenod! All the sins of : your life pounced upon you, and it was the darkest hour you ever saw when you first found out your sins. After a while you wont Into the harvest field of God's mercy, you began to glean In the fields of divine promiso, and you had more sheaves than you could carry as tho voice of God addressed you, say ing, i "Blessed is the man whoso tram gressions are forgiven and whoso siri are covered." 'A very dark starting t conviction, a very bright ending in tin rpardon and the hope and the triumph ol the Gospel! ;; ; ; - . So, vory often In our worldly buslnesn or In our spiritual career we gtart.oflf on a very dark path. -We . must go. 'The flesh may shrink bark, but thero is a voice wjthln, or a voice from above, say ing, you must go," and we havo to drink the gall. od we have to carry tho ero-s, and we have to traverse the desert, and j we aro pounded and flailed of misrepro- eontation and abuse, and . we have to edfa our way through ten! thousand ot etaclea that hvo to bo slain by our own right arm.

" That hiint, the b.e.iking day which tipi ' The golden spired Apoonlyps 5 - Again, ! learn from my- subject that tvents which seotn to be most luslgnlil cant may bo momentous. Can you imag ine anything more unimportant than tho somlng of a poor woman from Moab to Tudea.? Can you Imagine anything more trivial than the fact that thli Ruth just happened to allfrht as they say just hap pened to aftght on the field of Boaz? Yot til ages, all generations, havo an Interest m the i fact that she was to become an -ncostress of the Lord Jesus Christ, and til nations' and kingdoms ; must look af. .hat one little incident with a thrill of unspeakable and eternal satisfaction.

" r v.. It seejned to be of no Importance that Jubal invented rude Instruments of mu sic, calling them harp and organ, but thoy were the Introduction of all tho. world's minstrelsy. And as you hear; the vibra tion of a stringed lestrument, even after the fingers havo boon takou away from it, so all music now of lute and drum and cornet is only the long cuntiuued strains of Jubal's harp and' Juoal'e organ.

OP FKMA.LE INDUSTRY. ' Again, I see in my subject an illustra- !on of lhe beauty of ; femaia Industry. Behold Ruth tolling In tha harvest field under the hot sun, or at noon taking plain Dreaa wna tne reapers, or eating the parched corn which Boaz handod to to her. Tho customs of society of courso havo changod, and without the hardships and exposure t) which Ruth was sub- . . . . - . jected, every Intelligent woman will find r something to da I know thero . is a sickly sentimentality on this subject.
