SUMMER VACATIONS"

DR. TALMAGE PRHIACHC ON THE

WATERING PLACES.

With Dliisti'i' Ham! He Picttiros tho Snares Olid I'itfcill* That I'ntioe I'nwavy Keet During !).• Period Should Be Devoted to Ui'*!.

BKOOKI.TN, AM- 3.—Come ve yourselves apart into a desert jihico, ul rest awhile. —Mr.rk vi, SI.

Ilere Christ advises Irs vs*les to take :cat ion. They have boon living an excited as well as a useful life, md lie advises that they out into tho country. I am glad that fo? longer or shorter t±mo multitudes of our people will have summer vacation. The railway trains are being laden with passengers and baggage on their way to the mountains and tho sea shore. Multitudes of our citizens are packing their trunks for a restorative absence.

The city heats are pursuing tho people with torch and fear of sunstroke. Tho long silent halls of sumptuous hotels are all abuzz with excited arrivals. The crystalline surface of Wlnnipiseogea is shattered with the stroke of steamer, laden with excursionists. The antlers of Adirondack deer rattle under the shot of city sportsmen. The trout make fatal snaps at tho hook of adroit sportsmen an toss their spotted brllliauce into the ne basket. Alrejtdy the baton of tho orchestral leader taps the music stand on the hotel green and American life puts on festal array, and the rumbling of the tenpin alley, and the crack of the ivory balls on tho green baize billiard tables, and the jolting of the bar room goblets, and the explosive uncorking of champagne bottles, and the whirl and the rustle of the ball room dance and the clattering hoofs of the raco courses attest, that the season for the great American watering placcs is fairly inaugurated. Music—flute and drum aud cor-net-u-piston and clapping cymbals—will wake the echoes of the mountains.

VACATIONS AI'.K GOOD, BUT—BEWARE! Glad I am that, fagged out American life for the most will have an opportunity to rest, and that nerves racked and destroyed will find a lk-thesda. 1 believe in watering places. Let not the commercial firm begrudge the clerk, or the employer the journeyman, or the patient the physician, or the church its pastor a season of inoccupation. Luther used to sport with his children Edmund Burke used to caress his favorite hor.-ie Thomas Chalmers, in the dark hours of the church's disruption, played kite for recreation—as I was told by his own daughter—aud the busy Christ said to the busy apostles, "Come ye yourselves apart into"a desert place, aud rest- awhile." And I have observed that they who do not know liow to rest do not know how to work.

But I have to declare this truth today, that some of our fashionable watering places are the temporal and eternal destruction of "a multitude that no man can utimler," and amid the congratulations of this season and the prospect of the departure of many of you fur the country I must utter a note of warning—plain, earnest1 and unmistakable.

The first temptation tli. .t is apt to hover in this direction is to h-.v.-e your piety all at home. You will send the dog and '.-at and canary bird to be well ca.-fid for somewhere else, but the temptation will be to leave your religion i:\ the room with the blinds down and the Uoor bolted, and then you will come back ri the autumn to find that it is starved and suffocated, lying stretched on the rug stark de id. There is no surplus of piety the watering places. I never knew any one to grow very rapidly in grace at the fashionable summer resort. It is generally tho case that the Sabbath is more of a carousal than any other day, and there are Sunday walks and Sunday rides and Sunday excursions. THE DELINQUENCIES OF PROFESSED CHRIS­

TIAN.

Elders and deacons and ministers of religion who are entirely consistent at home sometimes when the Sabbath dawns on them at Niagara Falls or the White mountains take the day to themselves. If they, go to tho church.it is apt to bo a sacred parade, and the discourse, instead of being a plain talk about the soul, is apt to be what is called a crack sermon—that is, some discourse picked out of the effusions of the year as the one most adapted to excite admiration and in those churches, from the way the ladies hold their fans, you know that they are not so much impressed with the heat as with tho picturestjueness of half disclosed features. Four puny souls stand in the organ loft and squall a tune that nobody knows, and worshipers, with two thousands dollars' worth of diamonds on tho right hand, drop a cent into the poor box, and then the benediction is pronounced and tho farce is ended.

The air is bewitched with "tho world, the flesh and the devil." There are Christians who in three or four week in such a place have had such terrible rents made in their Christian robe that they had to keep darning it until Christmas to get it mended! The health of a great many people makes an annual visit to some mineral spring an absolute necessity but take your Bible along with you and take an hour for secret prayer every day, though you be surrounded by guffaw and saturnalia. Keep holy the Sabbath, though they denounce you as a bigoted Puritan. Stand off from these institutions which propose to imitate on this side the water tho iniquities of olden time Baden-Baden. Let your moral and your immortal health keep pace with your physical recuperation, and remember that all tho waters of Iiathorne and sulphur and chalybeate springs cannot do you so much good as the mineral, healing, perennial flood that breaks forth from the "Rock of Ages/' This may bo your last summer. If so, make it a lit vestibule of heaven.

THE TEMPTATIONS OF THE HORSE RACE. Another temptation around nearly all our watering places is the horse racing business. Yv ail admire the horse. There needs to be a redistribution of coronets among the brute creation. For ages tho lion has been called the king of beasts. I knock off its coronet and put the crown upon tho horse, in every way nobler, whether in shape or spirit or sagacity or intelligence or affection or usefulness. Ho is semi-human, and knows how to reason on a small scale. Tho centaur% of olden times, part horse and part man, seems to bo a suggestion of the fact that the horse is something more than a beast.

Job sets forth his strength, hi3 beauty, his majesty, the panting of his nostrils, the pawing of his hoof, and his enthusiasm for the battle. What Rosa Bonheur did for tho cattle, and what Landseer did for the dog, Job, with mightier pencil, does for the horse. Eighty-eight times does the Bible speak of him. He comes into every kingly procession, and into every great occasion,, and into every triumph. It is very evident that Job and David aud Isaiah and Ezeklel and Jeremiih and John were vpry fond of

the horso. Ho carno into much of their imagery. A red hnrsu—that meant war a black horse—that meant famine a pale horse—that meant death a white horse— that meant victory.

As the Bible makes a favorite of the horse, the patriarch, and the prophet, and the' evangelist, and the apostle stroking lus sleek hide, and patting his rounded neck, and tenderly lifting his exquisitely formed hoof, and listening with a thrill to tho champ of his bit, so all great natures in all ages liave spoken of him in encomiastic terms. Virgil in his Goorgies almost seems to plagiarize from the description of Job. The Duke of Wellington would not allow any one irreverently to touch his old war horse Copenhagen, on whom he had ridden fifteen hours without dismounting at Waterloo, and when old Copenhagen died his master ordered a military salute flred over his grave. John Howard showed that ho did not exhaust all his sympathies in pitying tho human racc, for when sick ho writes home, "Has my old chidso horse become sick or spoiled f1"

YOU CANNOT BE A CHRISTIAN TURFMAN. But wo do not think that the speed of the horse should bo cultured at the expense of human degradation. Horse races in olden times were under the ban of Christian people, and In our day tho some institution has ooino up under fictitious names, and it is called a "summer meeting," almost suggestive of positive religious exercises. And it is called an "agricultural fair," suggestive of everything that is improving in tho art of fanning. But under these deceptive titles arc the same cheating and tho same betting, tho Bame drunkenness and the same vagabondago, and the same abominations that were to be found under the old horso racing system.

I never knew a man yet who could give himself to the pleasures of the turf for a long reach of time and not be battered in morals. They hook up their spanking team, and put on their sporting cap, and light their cigar, aud take the reins, and dash down the road to perdition. The great day at Saratoga and Long Branch and Cape May, and nearly all the other watering places, is the day of tho races. The hotels are thronged, nearly every kind of equipage is taken up at an almost fabulous price, and there are many respectable people mingling with jockeys aud gamblers and libertinos and foul mouthed men and fl ishy women. The bartender stirs up the brandy smash. The bets run high. Tho greenhorns, supposing all is fair, put in thoir money soon enough to lose it. Three weeks before the raco takes place the struggle is decided, and the men iu the secret know on which steed to bet their money. The two men on the horses riding around long before arranged who shall beat.

Leaning from the stand or froin the carriage are men and women so absorbed in the struggle of bono and muscle and mettle that they jiko a grand harvest for tho pickpockets, who carry off the pocketbooks and portrnuniAi.es. Men looking on see only t-vo tior^cs with two riders flying arou -d the ring, but there is man,' a man on it stand whoso honor and domestic happiness aud fortune—white mane, white foot, white flank—are in the ring, racing with inebriety, and with fraud, and with profanity, and with ruin—blaok neck, black foot, black flank. Neck 1 neck they go in that moral Epsom.

KEEP AWAY FROM IT!

Ah, my friends, have nothing to do with horse racing dissipations this summer. Long ago tho English gos-ernment got through looking to the turf for the dragoon and light cavalry horse. They found the turf depreciates the stock, and it is yet worse for men. Thomas Hughes, the member of parliament and the author, known all the world over, hearing that a new turf enterprise was being sfcirted in this country, wrote a letter in which he said: "Hoaven help you, then for of all tho cankers of our old civilization there is nothing in this country approaching in unblushing meanness, iu rascality holding its head high, to this belauded institution of the British turf."

Another famous sportsman writes: "How many line domains havo been shared among these hosts of irpacious sharks during the last two hundred years and unless the system be altered, how many more are doomed to fall into tho same gulfl" The Duke of Hamilton, through his horse racing proclivities, in three years got through his entire fortuno of 8350,000, and I will say that some of you aro being undermined by It. With tho bull lights of Sp iin and tho bear baitings of tho pit may tho Lord God annihilate tho infamous and accursed horse racing of England and America!

I go further and speak of another temptation that hovers over the watering places, and this is the temptation to sacrifice physical strength. The modern Bethesda was meant to recuperate tho physical health, and yet how many come from tho watering places, their health absolutely destroyed! New York and Brooklyn idiots lxwsting of having imbibed twenty glasses of congress water before breakfast. Families accustomed to going to bed at 10 o'clock at night gossiping until 1 or 2 o'clock in tho morning. Dyspeptics, usually very cautious about their health, mingling ice creams and lemons and lobster salads and cocoanuts until the gastric juices lift up all their voices of lamentation and protest. Delicate women and brainless young men chassezing themselves into vertigo and catalepsy. Thousands of men and women coming back from our watering places in the autumn with tho foundations laid for ailments that will last them all their life long. You know as well as I do that this, is tho simple truth. A PCJR RULE THAT WILL NOT WORK BOTH

WAYS.

In tho summer you say to your good health: "Good-by I am going to havo a good time for a little wiiilo. I will be very glad to see you again iu the autumn." Then in the autumn, when you aro hard at work in your office or shop or counting room, Good Health will come and say, "Good-by I am going." You say, "Where are you going?" "Oh," says Good Health "I am going to take a vacation!'' It is a poor rule that will not work b.itli ways, and your good health will leave .you choleric and splenetic and exhausted. You coquetted with your good health in the summer time, and your good health is coquetting with you in the winter time. A fragment, of Paul's charge to the jailer would be an appropriate inscription for the hotel register in every watering place, "Do thyself no harm."

Another temptation hovering around the watering place is to the formation of hasty and lifelong alliances. The watering places are responsible for more of the domestic Infelicities of this country than all tho other things combined. Society is so artificial there that no suro judgment of character can be formed. Those who form companionships amid such circumstances go into a lottery where there aro twenty blanks to one prize. In tho •severe tog of life you want more than glitter and Bp lash. Life Is not a ballroom where the music decides the step, and bow and prance and graceful swing of long trail can make qilfor strong common sense. You may as

well go among the gayly painted yachts ox a summer regatta to find war vessels as to go among the light spray of the summer watering place to flnd character that can stand the tent of the great struggle of human life. Ali, in tho battle of life you want a stronger weapon than a liice fan or a croquet mallet! The load of life is so heavy that in order to draw it you want a team stronger than ono made up of a masculine grasshop[er and a feminine butterfly.

THE piiUFUMEn For.

If there is any man in the community that cxcites my contempt, and that excites the contempt of every man and woman, it is the soft handed, soft headed fop who, perfumed until the air is actually sick, spends his summer in taking killing attitudes and waving sentimental adieus and talking inilnitosimal nothings, and finding his heaven iu the set of a lavender kid glove. Boots as tight as an inquisition, two hours of consummate skill exhibited in the tio of a flaming cravat, his conversation made up of "All's" aud "Ob's" and "Ile-heo's." It would tako flvo hundred of them stewed down to make a teaspoonful of calves' foot jelly. There is only one counterpart to such a man as that, and that is the frothy young woman at tho watering place, her conversation made up of French moonshine what sho has on her head only equaled by what sho has on her back useless ever since sho was born, and to be useless until sho is dead and what they will do with hor in tho next world I do not know, except to set her upon tho Iwiuks of the River of Life for all eternity to look sweet! God Intends us to admire music and fair faces and graceful stop, but amid tho heartlessness and tho inflation and tho fantastic influences of our moleni watering places beware how you make life long covenants!

Another Vruptatton that will hover over the water lace is that of baneful litersvture. Almost every one starting off for the summer takes some reading matter. It is a LKXk out of the library or off tho book stand, or bought of the boy hawking books through the cars. I really believe there is more pestiferous trash read among the intelligent classes in July and August than in all tho other ten months of tho year. Men and women who at home would not be satisfied with a book that was not rfally sensible I found sitting on hotel piazzas or tinder the tre- reading books the index of which would make them blush if they knew that you knew What tho book Was. "Oh," they say, "you must have Intel leotual recreation!" Yes. There is no need that you take along into a watering place "Hamilton's Metaphysics"' or sotno thunderous discourse on the eternal decrees, or "Faraday's Philosophy." There nre many easy books that are good. You might as well say, "I propose now to give a little rest to my digestive organs, and instead of eating heavy meat and vegetables will for a little while take lighter food—i little strychnine and a few grains of rats bane." Literary poison in August is as bad as literary poison in December. Mark that. Do not let the frogs and the lice of a corrupt printing press jump and crawl into your Saratoga trunk or Wlnte mountain valise. WHAT IF LIGHTNING SHOULD ST1 II 1 10L

Would it not be an awful thing for you to Ije struck with lightning some day when you had in your hand one of these paper covered romances—the hero a Parisian roue, the heroine an unprincipled flirt— chapters in the book that you would not road to your children at tho rate of £100 a line! Throw out that stuff from your summer baggage. Aro there not good books that are easy to read—books of congenial history, books of pure fun, books of poetry ringing with merry canto, books of fine engravings, books that will rest the mind as well as purify the heart and elevate tho wholo life? My hearers, there will not bo an hour between this and tho day of your death when you can afford to read a book lacking in moral principle.

Another temptation hovering all around our watering places is tho intoxicating beverage. I am told that it is becoming more aud more fashionable for women to drink. I aire not how well a woman may dress, if she has taken enough of wine to flush her cheek and put glassiness on her eyes she is intoxicated. She may be handed into a £2,500 carriage and have diamonds enough to confound the Tiffanys—she is intoxicated. She may be a graduate of a groat institute and tho daughter of some man in danger of being nominated for the presidency—sho is drunk You may have a larger vocabulary than I have, and you may say in regard to her that sho is "convivial," or she is "merry," or sho is "festive," or sho is "exhilarated," but you cannot with all your garlands of verbiage cover up the plain fact that it is an old fashioned case of drunk.

Now, tho watering places aro full of temptations to men and women to tipple. At the close of the tenpin or billiard game they tipple. At tho close of tho cotillon they tipplo. Seated on the piazza cooling themselves off they tipplo. The tinged glasses come around with bright straws, and they tipple. First they take "light wines," ns they call them but "light wines" aro heavy enough to debaoe tho appetite. There is not a very long road between champagne at flvo dollars per bottle and whisky at flvo cents a glass.

SATAN'S DIVERSIFIED GRADES. Satan has three or four grades down which he takes men to destruction. Ono man ho takes up, and through one spree pitches him into eternal darkness. That is a rare case. Very seldom, indeed, can you flnd a man who will bo such a fool as that.

When a man goes down to destruction Satan brings him to a plane. It is almost a level. The depression is so slight that you can hardly seo it. The man does not actually know that ho is on the down grade, and it tips only a little toward darkness—just a little. And the first mile it is claret, and the second mile it is sherry and tho third milo it is punch, and the fourth mile it is ale, and tho fifth milo it is porter, and the sixth mile it is brandy, and then it gets steeper and steeper, and tho man gets frightened and says, "Oh, let me gel off!" "Xo," says tho conductor, "this Is an express train, and it does not stop until it gets to the Grand Central depot of Smashupton." Ah, "look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it givcth Its color in the cup, when it moveth itself aright. At the hist it biteth like a serpent and stingcth like an adder."

My friends, whether you tarry at home— which will be quite as safe aud perhaps quite on comfortable—or go into the country, arm yourselves against temptation. Tho grace of God is the only safe shelter, whether In town or country. There are watering places accessible to all of us. You cannot open a book of tho Bible without finding out some sucii watering place. Fountains open for sin and uncLuanliuess wells of salvation streams from Lebanon a flood struck out of tho rock by Moses fountains in tho wilderness discovered by Hagar water to drink and water to bathe inj the river of God, which is full of water water of which if a man drink ho shpll never thirst wells of water in the Valley of Baca living fountains of watqr a purp

T.f

1

river of water as clear as crystal from under tho tlircsio of God. WATERING PLACES ACCESSIBLE TO ALL.

These aro watering places MTessiblo to all of us. Wo do not have a lalxirious packing up leforo we start—only the throwing away of our transgressions. No expensive hotel bills to iay it is "without money and without price." No long and dirty travel before wo got there it is only ono stop away. In California in five mimttei I walked around and saw ten fountains, all bubbling up, atd they were all different. And in five minutes I can go through this Biblo parterre and flnd yon llfty bright, sparkling fountains bubbling up into eternal life.

A chemist will go to ono of these summer watering places and take the water and analyze it, and toll you that It contains so much ol' iron, and so much of soda, aud so much of lime, and so much of magnesia. I como to this Gospel well, this living fountain, and analyze tho water, and I find that its ingredients are pence, pArdon, forgiveness, hope, comfort, life, heaven, "Ho, every ono that tliirstot.h, come ye" to this watering place!

Crowd around this Bethesda today! Oh, you sick, you lame., you troubled, you dying—crowd around this Bethesda! Step in itl Oh, step in It! The migel of the covenant today stirs the water. \VThy do you not step in it? Some of you ar.e too weak to tako a step in that direction. Then we tako you up in the arms of our closing prayer and plunge you clean under the wave, hoping that the cure may be as sudden aiul as radical as with Capt. Naaman, who, blotched and cnrbunelod, stepped into tho Jordan, and after tho seventh dive came up, his skin roseate complexioued as tho flesh of a little child.
