DR. TALMAGE’S SERMON. HE SPSAKS OF THE TYPE OF CHRIST’S TRIUMPH. The Entry Into Jerusalem—A Loeeon for Arbor Day—Chank Mod for the Treoo— The Go. p.l ot Belt laorlflo.-Lea.oM oi the Clouda. The Glorloaa Palm. Palm Sunday gave direction to this sermon. Text, John xll, 13. “They took branches of palm trees and went forth to meet Him.” How was that possible? How could palm branches be cast in the way of Christ as He approached Jerusalem? There aro scarcely any palm trees in Central Palestine. Evon the one that was carefully guarded for manv years at Jericho has gone. I went over the very road by which Christ approached Jerusalem, >nd there are plenty of olive trees and fig trees, but no palm trees that I could see. You must reinember that the climate has changed. The palm tree likes wster, but by the cutting down of the forests, which are leafy prayers for rain, the land has become unfriendly to the palm tree. Jericho once stood in seven miles of palm grove. Olivet was crowned with palms. The Dead Sea has on its banks the trunks of palm trees that floated down from some oldtime palm grovo and are preserved from decay by the salt which they received from tie Dead Sea. Let woodsmen spare the trees of America, if they would not ruinously change the climate and bring to the soli barrenness instead of fertility. Thanks to God and the Legislatures for Arbor Day, which plants trees, trying to atone for the ruthlessness which has destroyed them. Yes, my text is in harmony with the condition of that country on the morning of Palm Sunday. About three million people have come to Jerusalem to attend the religious festivities. Great news! Jesus will enter Jerusalem to-day. The sky is red with the morning, and tho people are flocking out to the foot of Olivet, and up and on over the southern shoulder of the mountain, and the procession coming out from the city meets the procession escorting Christ, as He comes toward tho city. There is a turn in the road, where Jerusalem suddenly bursts upon the vision. We had ridden that day all the way from Jericho, and had visited the ruins of the house of Mary and Martha and Lazarus, and were somewhat weary of sight seeing, when there suddenly arose before our vision Jerusalem, the religious capita) of all Christian ages. That was the point of observation where my text comes in. Alexander rode Bucephalus, Duke Elie rode his famous Marchegay, Sir Henry Lawrence rode the high mettled Conrad, Wellington rode his proud Copenhagen, but tho conqueror of earth and Heaven rides a colt, ono that had been tied at the roadside. It was unbroken, and I have no doubt fractious at . the vociferation of the populace. An extemporized saddle made out of the garments of the people was put on the beast. While some people griped the bridle of the colt, others reverently waited upon Christ at the mounting. The two processions of people now become one—those who came out of the city and those who came oyer the hill. The orientals are more demonstrative than we of the Western world, their voices louder, their gesticulations more violent, and the symbols by which they express their emotions more significant The people who left Phocea, in the far East, wishing to make impressive that they would never return, took a red hot ball of iron and threw it into the sea, and said they would never return to Phocea until that ball rose and floated on the surface. Be not surprised, therefore, at the demonstration in the text. As the colt with its rider descends the slope of Olivet, the palm trees lining the road are called upon to render their contribution to the scene of welcome and rejoicing. The branches of these trees are high up, and some must needs climb the trees and tear off the leaves and throw them down, and others make of these leates an emeiald pavement for the colt to tread on. Long before that morning the palm tree had been typical of triumph. Herodotus and Strabo had thus described it. Layard finds the palm leaf cut in the walls of Nineveh, with the same significance. In the Greek athletic games the victors carried palms. I am very glad that our Lord, who live days after had thorns upon His brow, for a little while at least had palms strewn under His feet. Oh, the glorious palm! Amarasinga, the Hindo scholar, calls it “the kipg among the grasses.” Linnaeus calls it “the prince of vegetation." Among all the trees that ever cast a shadow or yielded fruit or lifted their arms toward Heaven, it has no equal for multitudinous uses. Do you want flowers? One palm tree will put forth a hanging garden of them, ono cluster counted by a scientist containing 207,000 blooms. Do yon want food? It is the chief diet of whole nations. One pal m in Chili will yield ninety gallons cf honey. In Polynesia it Is the chief food of the inhabitants. In India there aro multitudes of people dependent upon it for sustenance. Do you want cable to hold ships or cords to hold wild beasts? It is wound into ropes unbreakable. Do you want articles of house furniture? It is twisted into mats and woven into baskets and shaped into drinking cups and swung into hammocks. Do you want medicine? Its nut is tho chief preventive of disease and the chief cure for vast populations. Do you want houses? Its wood furnishes the wall for the homes, and its leaves thatch them. Do you need a supply for the pantry? It yields sugar ano starch and oil and sago and milk and salt and wax and vinegar and candles. Oh, the palm! It has a variety of endowments, such as no other growth that ever rooted the earth or kissed the heavens. To the willow, God says, “Stand by the water courses and weep.” To the cedar He says, “Gather the hurricanes into your bosom.” To the fig tree He says, “Bear fruit and put it within reach of al) the people.” But to the palm tree He says, “Be garden and storehouse and wardrobe and ropewalk and chandlery and bread and banquet and manufactory, and then be type of what I meant when I inspired David, my servant, to say, ‘The righteous shall flourish liko a palm tree.’” Nearly everything I see aropnd, beneath and above in the natural world suggests useful service. Jf there is nothing ip the Bible that inspires you to usefulness, go out and study the world around you this springtiinh, and learn the great lesson of usefulness. “What art thou doing up there, little star? Why not shut thine eyes and sleep, for who cares for thy shtfilng?” “No,”salth the star, “I will not sleep. I guide tho sailor on the soa. I cheer the traveler among the mountains, I help tip the dew with light Through the window of tho poor man’s cabin I cast a beam of hope, and the child on her mother’s lap asks in glee whether I come and what I do and whence 1 go. To gleam and glitter, God sent me here. Away! I have no time to sleep.” “What doost thou, insignificant grass under my feet?" “l am doing a work,” says the grass blade, “as best I can. I help to make up the soft beauty of field and lawn. lam satisfied, if wjth mlilloas of others no bigger than I, we can

five pasture to flocks and herds I am wonderfully made. He who feeds the ravens gives me substance from the soil and breath from the air, and He who clothes the lilies of the field rewards me with this coat of green.” “For what, lonely cloud, goest thou across the Heavens?” Through the bright air a voice drops from afar, saying: “Up ana down this sapphire floor I pace to teach men that like me they are passing away. I gather up the waters from lake and sea, and then, when the thunders toll, I refresh the earth, making the dry ground to laugh with harvests ot wheat and fields of corn. I catch the frown of the storm and the hues ot the rainbow. At evening tide on tbe western slopes I will pitch my tent, and over me shall dash the saffron, and the purple, and tho fire of the sunset A pillar of cloud like me led the chosen across the desert and surrounded by such as I the Judge of Heaven and earth will at last descend, for, ‘Behold He cometh with clouds!’" Ob, my friends, if everything in the inanimate world bo useful, let us immortal men and women be useful, and in that respect be like the palm tree. But I must not be tempted by what David says of that green shaft of Palestine, that living and glorious pillar in the Eastern gardens, as seen in olden times —the palm tree; I must not be tempted by what the Old Testament says of Lt, to lessen my emphasis of what John, the evangelist, says of ft in my text. Notice that it was a beautiful and lawful robbery of the palm tree that helped make up Christ’s triumph on the road to Jerusalem that Palm Sunday. The long, broad, green leaves that were strewn under the feet of the colt and in tbe way of Christ were torn off from the trees. What a pity, some one might say, that those stately and graceful trees should be despoiled. Tbe sap oozed out at the places where the branches broke. The glory of the palm tree was appropriately sacrificed for tho Saviour's triumphal procession. So it always was, so it always will be in this world—no worthy triumph of any sort without the tearing down of something else. Brooklyn bridge, the glory of our continent, must have two architects prostrated, the one slain bv his tolls and the other for a lifetime invalided. The greatest pictures ot tbe world had, in their richest coloring, the blood of the artists who made them. The mightiest oratorios that ever rolled through tho churches had, in their pathos, the sighs and groans of the composers, who wore their lives out in writing the harmony. American independence was triumphant, but it moved on over the lifeless forms ot tens of thousands of men who fell at Bunker Hill and Yorktown and the battles between which were the hemorrhages of the nation. The Kingdom of God advances in all the earth, but it must be over the Ilves of missionaries who die ot malaria in the jungles or Christian workers who preach and pray and toil and die in the service. The Saviour triumphs in all directions—but beauty and strength must be torn down from the palm trees of Christian heroism and consecration and thrown in his pathway. To what better use could those palm trees on the southern shoulder of Mount Olivet and clear down into the Valley of Gethsemane put their branches than to surrender them for the making of Christ’s journey toward Jerusalem the more picturesque, the more memorable and the more triumphant? Andto what better use could we put our lives than into the sacrifice for Christ and His cause and the happiness of our fellow creatures? Shall we not be willing to be torn down that righteousness shall have triumphant way? Christ was torn down for us. Can we not afford to be torn down for Him? If Christ could suffer so much for us. can we not suffer a little for Christ? If He can afford on Palm Sunday to travel to Jerusalem to carry a cross, can we not afford a few leaves from our branches to make emerald His way? What makes that mother look so much older than she really is? You say she ought not yst to have one gray line in her hair. The truth is the family was not always as well off as now. The married pair had a hard struggle at the start Examine the tips of the forefinger and thumb of her right hand, and they will tell you the story of the needle that was plied day in and day out Yea, look at both her hands, and they will tell the story of the time when she did her otfn work, her own mending and scrubbing and washing. Yea, look into the face and read the story of scarlet fevers and croups and midnight watchings, when none but God and herself in that house were awake, and then the burials and the lonelines afterward, which was more exhausting than the preceding watching had been, and no one now to put to bed. How fair she once was, and as graceful as the palm tree, but all the branches of her strength and beauty were iong ago torn off and thrown into the pathway of her household. Alas! that sons and daughters, themselves so straight and graceful and educated, should ever forget that they are walking to-day over the fallen strength of an industrious and honored parentage. A little ashamed, are you, at their ungrammatical utterance? It was through their sacrifices that you learned accuracy of speech. Do you lose patience with them because they are a little querulous and complaining? I guess you have forgotten how querulous and complaining you were when you were getting over that whooping cough or that intermittent fever. A little annoyed, are you, because her hearing is poor and you have to tell her something twice? She was not always hard of hearing. When you were 2 years old your first call for a drink at midnight woke her from a sound sleep as quick as any one will waken at the trumpet cal) of the resurrection. Oh, my young lady, what is that under the sole of your fine shoes? It is a palm leaf which was torn off tho tree of maternal fidelity. Young merchant, young lawyer, young journalist, young mechanic, with good salary and fine clothes and refined surroundings, have you forgotten what a time your father had that winter, after the summer’s crops had failed through droughts or floods or locust, and how he wore his old coat too long and made his old hat do, that ho might keep you at school or college? What is that, my young man, under your fine boot to-day, the boot that so well fits your foot, such a boot as your father could never afford to wear? It must be a leaf from the palm tree of your father’s self-sacrifices. Do not be ashamed of him when he comes to town, and because his manners are a little old-fashioned try to smuggle him in and smuggle him out, but call in your best friends and take him to the house of God and introduce him to your pastor and say, “This is my father.” If he had kept for himself the advantages which he gave you he would bo as well educated and as well gotten up as you. When in the English Parliament a member was making a great speech that was unanswerable a lord derisively cried out, “I remember you when you blackened my father's boots! - ’ “Yes," replied the man, “and did I npt do it well?" Never be ashamed of your early surroundings. Yes, yes, all the green leaves wo walk over were tbrn off some palm tree. When recently Captain Burton, the great author, .died, he left a scientific book iu manuscript, which he expected would be his wife’s fortune. He 7 often told her six He said, “This will make > yoo independent and affluent after I am

gone.” He suddenly died, and it was expected that the wife would publish the book. One publisher told her ho could himself make ont of it 1100,000. But it was a book which, though written with pure scientific design, she felt would do immeasurable damage to public morals. With tho two large volumes, which had cost her husband the work of years, she eat down on the floor before the lire and said to herself. “There Is a fortune for me in this book, and although my husband wrote it with the right motive and scientific people might be helped by it, to the vast majority ot people it would be harmful, and I know it would damage the world.” Then she took apart the manuscript sheet after sheet and put it into the fire, until the last line was consumed. Bravo! She flung her livelihood, her home, her chief worldly resources under the best moral and religious interests of the world. How much are we willing to sacrifice tor others? Christ is again ou the march, not from Bethpage to Jerusalem, but for tho conquest of the world. He will surely take it, but who will furnish the palm branches for the triumphant way? Self sacrifice is tbe word. There is more money paid to destroy the world than to save it. There are more buildings put up to ruin the world than to evangelize it There is more depraved literature to blast men than good literature to elevate them. Oh, fora power to descend upon us all like that which whelmed Charles G. Finney with mercy, when, kneeling in his law office, and before he entered upon bls apostolic career of evangelization, he said: "The Holy Ghost descended on me in a manner that seemed to go through me, body and souk I could feel the impression liko a wave of electricity going through and through me. Indeed it seemed to come in waves and waves of liquid love. It seemed like the breath of God. I can recollect distinctly that it seemed tofan me like immense wings. 1 wept aloud with joy and love. These waves came over me and over me one after another, and until, I recollect, I cried out, “I shall die if these waves continue to pass over ma’ I said, ‘Lord, I cannot bear any more.’” And when a gentleman came into the office and said, “Mr. Finney, you are in pain?” he replied, "No. but so happy that I cannot live.” My hearers, the time will come when upon the whole Church ot God will descend such an avalanche of blessing, and then the bringing of the world to God will be a matter of a few years, perhaps a few days or a few hours. Ride on, O Christ! for the evangelization of all nations. Thou Christ who didst ride on the unbroken colt down the sides of Olivet, on the white horse of eternal victory ride through all nations, and may we, by our prayers, and our selfsacrifices, ana our contributions, and our consecrations, throw palm branches in the wav. I clap my hands at the coming victory. I feel this morning as did the Israelites when, on their march to Canaan, they came not under the shadow of one palm tree, but of seventy palm trees, standing in an oasis among a dozen gushing fountains, or as the Book puts it, “Twelve wells of water and threescore and ten palm trees.” Surely there are more than seventy such great and glorious souls present to-day. Indeed, it is a mighty grove of palm trees, and I feel something of the raptures which I shall feel when, our last battle fought, and our last burden carried, and our last tear wept, we shall become one of tbe multitudes St. John describes “clothed in white robes and palms in their hands.” Hail thou bright, thou swift advancing, thou everlasting Palm Sunday of the skies! Victors over sin and sorrow and death and woe, from the hills and valleys of the Heavenly Palestine, they have plucked the long, broad, green leaves and all the ransomed—some in grates of pearl, and some on battlements of amethyst, and some on streets of gold, and some on seas of sapphire, they shall stand in numbers like the stars, in splen'dor like tbe morn, waving thepalmsl A New Invention. The latest idea in the way of preventing the abuse of the telephone by nonsubscribers is that of the photograph. The arrangement is such that when anyone calls the exchange there is exposed to the view of the operator an instantaneous photograph of the person calling. The photograph becomes a record, each ribbon on which they are displayed being capable of producing, when bought into action, 250 photographs. According to a system devised, these ribbons are checked up, and the subscriber is charged so much for each person using not entitled to its use. To the subscriber this will afford a great relief, in that the exchanges will give them a better service, as the telephone is supposed to be solely for the use of the party paying for it, and not for those who do not possess one. This invention is looked upon as being away out of the serious annoyances arising from the inordinate demands on the service by those who are not claimants for good work, as by reducing them to a minimum the cost is lessened and the service is lightened. Prov Lion always will be made for those who.want to pay for telephonic communication.—Electrical Review. One of the Wonders of California. Recently in San Francisco when the chorus for the Thomas concerts asked for tickets for themselves and for escorts for the ladies on nights they were not to sing, Mr. Thomas replied, “No.” “Very well,” said the chorus, goqjb naturedly. “Tickets without escorts, then?’’ “No,” replied Mr. Thomas. “All right,” the chorus said. “We will sit up in our chorus seats as usual the nights we don’t sing.” “No,” replied the only Thomas, for the thiriT time ;Z“when you don’t sing you can pay for tickets like anyone else." “In that case,” the chorus replied, “it is still very well—we won’t come at all —not even to sing.” This Pacific-coast way of looking at affairs speedily effected a compromise, and during the festival, in smiling triumphant tiers, the chorus will sit up aloft on the nights it does not sing, and Mr. Thomas has made note of the incident as one of the wonders of California.—San Francisco Call.

Fleamirea at Memory. What a blessed thing Is memory! How it brings up the pleasures of the past, and hides Its unpleasantnesses! You recall your childhood days, <lo you not, and wish they would return? You remember the pleasant associations, while the unpleasant ones are forgotten. Perhaps to your mind comes the face of some friend. It was once a pale, sad face. It showed marks of pain, lines of care. It seemed to be looking into the hereafter, the unknown future. And then you recalled how it brightened, how It recovered its rosy hue, how it became a picture of happiness and joy. Db you remember these things? Many people do, and gladly tell how the health returned, how happiness camo back, how the world seemed bright They tell how they were once weak, nerveless, perhaps in pain, certainly unhappy. They tell of sleepless nights, restless days, untouched food, unstrung nerves. And then they tell how they became happy, healthy and strong once more. You have heard it often in the past, have you not? You have heard people describe how they were cured and kept in health? You certainly can remember what it is that has so helped people in America. If not, listen to what Mrs. Annie Jenness Miller, who is known universally as ths great dress reformer, says: “Six years ago, when suffering from mental care and overwork, I received the most pronounced benefit from the use of that great medicine, Warner’s Safe Cure.” Ah, now you remember. Now you recall how many people you have heard say this same thing. Now you recollect how much you have heard of this great Cure. Now you are ready to admit that memory is usually pleasing, that the highest pleasure comes from perfect health, and that this great remedy has done more to produce and prolong health than any other discovery ever known to the entire history of the whole world. The Beginning ot the End. “Now that we have become engaged, dearest,” she murmured coyly, “I thought it best to order several new gowns, so that after we are married we shall be prepared.” a* “You could not have done better'’ replied the young man. “And now, darling, after this is over there is but one thing more to do." “What is that?" replied the fair girl. “That,” he replied, with a hard, set look in his face, “is to discharge the the dress-maker.”—Cloak Review.
