uTho

Bare Arm of God" as a Type of Omnipotent Power.

A.U Ea«y Tan!t to Make the World but a a Stupendous Undertaking to Itoform It— IJr. Talmuge's

Sermon.

Rev. Dr. Talmage preached at Brooklyn, last Sunday, from the text: Isaiah iii, 10 "'The Lord hath made bare rlis holy arm." He said:

It almost takes our breath away to read some of the Bible imagery. There is such boldness of metaphor in my text that I have been for some time getting my courage up to preach from it. Isaiah, the evangelist prophet, is sounding the jubilate of our planet redeemed and cries out, "The Lord hath made bare His holy arm." What overwhelming suggestiveness in that figure of speech, "The bare arm of God!" The peopie of Palestine to this day wear much hindering apparel, and when they wiint to run a special race, or lift a special burden, or fight a special battle, they put off the outside apparel, as in our land when a man proposes a special exertion he puts ofr his coat and rolis up his sleeves. Walk through our foundries, our machine shops, our mines, our factories. and vou will find that most of the toilers have their coats off and their sleeves rolled up.

Isaiah saw that there must be a tremendous amount of work done before this world becomes what it ought to be. and he foresees it' all accomplished, and accomplished by the Almighty, not as we ordinarily think of Him, but by the Almighty, with the sleeve of his robe roiled back to his shoulder. '"The Lord hath made bare His holy arms."

Nothiug more impresses me in the Bible than the ease with which God does most things. There is such a reserve 01 power. He has more thunderbolts than He has ever flung, more light than He has ever distributed, more blue than that with which He has overreached the skv, more green than that with which He has emeralded the grass, more crimson than that with which He has burnished the sunsets. I sav it with reverence, from all I can see, God has never half 1ried.

How many bare arms of human toil- and some of those bare arms are very tired—in the creation of light :ii?d its apparatus, and after all the work, the greater part or' the continents and hemisphere. at night have no light at all, except perhaps the fireflies flashing their small lanterns across the swamp. But see how easy God made the light.! He did not make bare His arm He did not even put forth His robed arm Tie did not lift so much as a linger. The flint out of which He struck the noonday sun was the word "Light." "Let there be light!" Adam did not 'e the sun until the fourth day, for. Ihough the sun was created on the first dav. it took its ravs from the lirst to the fourth* day to work through the dense mass of fluids bv which this earth was compassed. Did you ever hear of anything so :sasv as that? So unique? Out of a word came the blazing sun. the father of flowers and warmth and 1,-ght. Out of a word building a fireplace for all nations of the earth to warm themselves by! "But," savs some one, "do you not think that in making the machinery of the universe, of which our solar system is comparatively a small wheel working into mightier win-els, it must have caused God some exertion -the upheaval of an arm. either robed or an arm made bare?" No. We are distinctly told otherwise. The machinery of a uni verse God made simplv with His fingers. David, insoired in a night -ong. savs so- "When I consider Tliv heavens, the work of Thy fingers."

M.v text makes it plahi that the rectification of this world is a tremendous undertaking. It takes more power to make this world over again than it took to make it at first. A word was only necessary for the first creation, but for the new creation the unsloeved and unhindered forearm of the Almighty. The reason of that 1 can understand. In the shipyards at Liverpool or New York or Glasgow a great, vessel is constructed, The architect draws out the plan, the length of the beam, the capacity of tonnage, the rotation of wheel or screw, the masts, the cabins and all the appointments of this great palace of the deep. The architect finishes his work without any perplexity, and the carpenters and artizans toil on the craft So many hours a day, each one doing his part, until with flags flying and thousands of people huzzaing on the docks the vessel is. launched. But out. on the sea thn't steamer breaks* her shaft and is limping slowly along' toward harbor, when Caribbean'WhiVlwinds, those mighty hunters of"the' deep, looking out for prey of shfps, surrpund that, vessel «ud pitch it on a rocky coast2 and she lifl^'nud[ falls! in the breakers until etfery joint is loose, aiidi f6^erv*sfpar' is down, and every \vave.'Sweeps' over the hurricane deck as she parts amidships. Would it iiot require move skill and power to get that splintered vessel off the rocks and reconstruct it than it required originally to build her? Aye! Our world that GoJ built so beautiful and which started out with all the flash of Edenic foliage and with the chant of paradisaical bowers, has been sixty* centuries pounding in the skerries of sin, and to get her out, and to get her off, and to

get her on the right way again will require more of omnipotence than it required to build her and launch her. So I am not surprised that though in the drydock of one word our world was made it will take the unseeved arm of God to lift her from the rocks and put her on- the right course again.

Now, just look at the enthroned difficulties in the way, the removal of which, the overthrow of which, seems to require the bare right arm of omnipotence. There stands heathenism with its 8(30.000,000 victims. I do not caie whether you call them Brahmans or Buddhists, Confucians or fetich idolators. At the World's Fair in Chicago, last summer, those monstrosities of religion tried to make themselves respectable, but the long hair and baggy trousers and trinketed robes of their representatives cannot hide from the world the fact that those religions are the authors of funeral pvre, and "juggernaut crushing, and Ganges inanticide, and Chinese shoe torture, and the aggregated massacre of many centuries.

There, too, stands Mohammedism, with its 176,000,001) victims. Its bible is the Koran, a book not quite as large as our new testament, which was revealed to Mohammed when in epileptic fits,and resuscitated from these tits he dictated it to scribes. Yet it is read to-day by mors people than any other book ever written. Mohammed, the founder of that religion, a polygamist. with superfluity of wives, the first step of his religion on the body, mind and soul of woman, and no wonder that the heaven of the Koran is an everlasting Sodom, an infinite seraglio, about which Mohammed promises that each follower shall have in that place seventy-two wives in aidition to all the wives he had on earth, but that no old woman shall even enter heaven.

There stands, also, the arch demon of alcoholism. Its throne is -white and made of bleached human skulls. On ore side of that throne of skulls kneels in obeisance and worship democracy, and on tne other side republicanism, and the one that kisses the cancerous and'gangrened foot of this despot the oftenest gets the most benedictions. There is a

Hudson river, an Ohio, a Mississippi of strong drink rolling through this nation, but as the rivers from which I take my figure of speech empty into the Atlantic or the gulf, this mightier flood of sickness and in.'•anity and domestic ruin and crime and bankruptcy and woe empties into the hearts, and the homes, and the churches, and the time and the eternitv of a multitude beyond all statistics to number or describe. All nations are mauled and sacrificed with baleful stimulus or killing narcotic. The pulque of Mexico, the cashew of Brar.il, the hasheesh of Persia, the opium of China, the guavo of Honduras, the wedro of Russia, the soma of India, the aguardiente of Morocco, the arak of Arabia, the mastic of Syria, the raki of Turkey, the beer of Germany, the whisky of Sc tlaud, the ale of England, the all drinks of America, are doing their best to stupefv. inflame, demerit, impoverish, brutalize and slay the human race. Human power, unless reinforced from the heavens, can never extirpate the -evils I mention.

Much good has been accomplished bv the heroism and fidelity of Christian reformers, but the fact remains that there are mors splendid men and magnificent women this moment going over the Niagara abysm of inebriety than at any time since the first grape was turned into wine and the first head of rve began"* to soak in a brewery. When people touch this subject., they are apt to .give statisticts as to how many millions are in drunkard's graves or with ouick tread marching on toward them. The land is full of talk of high tariff and low fir if but what about the highest of all tariffs in this country, the tariff of $:XK).000,000 which ruiM put upon the United States in 1S01, for that is what it cost us?

But I have no time to specify the manifold evils that challenged Christianity. And 1 think I have I seen in some Christians, and read in some newspapers, and heard from some pulpits a disheartenment, as though Christianity were so worsted that it is hardlv worth while to attempt to win this world for God.and that all Christian work would collapse,and that- it is no use for you to teach a Sabbath class or distribute tracts or exhort in prayer meetings I or preach in a pulpit, as Satan is gaining ground. To rebuke that pessimism, the gospel of smashup, 1 preach this sermon, showing that you are on the winning side. Go ahead! Fight oni Who can doubt 1 the result when, according to rnv text. Jehovah does His be t, when the last reserve force of omnipotence takes the field, when the last sword of eternal might leaps from its seaboard? t)o you know whnt decided I the battle 6f Sedan? The hills a thousand feet, high. Elev hundred cannon on the hills. Art' rv on the 'heights ofi»Givonn" and twelve German batteries on the heights of La

Moneello. The Crown Prince of Saxony watched the scene from the heights of Mairv. Between' a quarter to o'clock in the morning and 1 o'clock in the afternooii of September 2, 1870. the hills' drppped the shells that shattered the French host iu the valley. The French l£mperor and the 8(,000 of his army captured by the hills. So in this conflict between holiness and sin "our eyes are unto the hills." Down here in the valleys of earth we must be valiant soldiers of the cross, but the Commander of our hosts walks Ihe bights and views,the scene far better than

G^JBSRW'L'G'GM JJJGWIPJIIMUWIIIII». .-,^-

we can in the valleys, and at thd right day and the right hour all heaven will open its batteries on our side, and the commander of the hosts of unrighteousness, with all his followers, will surrender, and it will take eternity to fully celebrate the universal victory through oar Lord Jesus Christ. "Our eyes are unto the hills." Look! Those continents without a pang! Behold! Those hemispheres without a sin! Why those deserts —Arabian desert. American desert and Great Sahara desert—are all irrigated inlo gardens where God walks in the cool of the day. The atmosphere that encircles our globe floating not one groan. All the rivers and lakes and oceans dimpled with not one falling tear. The climates of the earth have cropped out of them the rigors of the cold-and the blasts of the heat, and it is universal spring. Let change the old world's name. Let ii no more be called the earth, as when it was recking with everything pestiferous and malevolent, scarleted with battlefields and gashed with graves, but now so changed, so aromatic with gardens and so resonant) with song and so rubescent with beauty, let us call it Immanual's land or Beulah or millenial gcrdens or paradise regained or heaven! And to God, the only wise, the only good, the only great, be glory forever. Amen!

Harper's Mngizine. The hacienda San Jose de BaWcora lies northwest from Chihuahua 225 of the longest miles on the map. The miles run up long hills and divc:nto rocky canons they stretch over never ending burnt plains, and across the beds of tortuous rivers thick with scorching sand. And there are three ways to make this travel. Some go 011 foot—which is best, it one has time—like the Tahuramaras others take it ponyback, after the Mexican manner and persons with no time and a great, deal of money go in a coach. At first thought this last would seem to be the best, but the Guerrero stage has never failed to tip over, and the company make you sign away your natural rights, and almost your immortal soul, before the will allow you to embark. So it is not the best way at all, if I may judge from my own experience. \V•. had a coach which seemed to choost the steepest hill on the route, wher it then struck a stone, which heaved the coach, pulled out the king-pin. and what I remember of the occui renee is 'full of sprains and ache and general gloom. Guerrero, too is only three fourths of the way to Bavicora, and you can only go there if Don Gilberto, the patron of thehacienda—or, if know him well enough, "Jack"—will take you iu 1he ranch coach.

After bumping over the stones al day for five days, through a blind ing dust, we were glad enough when we suddenly came o-t of the timbei in the mountain pass and espied the great yellow plain of Bavicor stretching to the blue hills of tin Sierra. In an hour's ride mori through a chill wind, we were at th ranch. We pulled up at the entrance, which was garnished by a bunch of cow punchers, who re garded us curiously as we pulled our aching bodies and bandaged limb from the Concord and limped into the patio.

SCARLET FEVgti.

Extreme Care Necossary to Prevent Contagion. In scarlet fever the patient should not leave his room nor see any one but his regular attendants until lie hits had several good "all-over baths" in tepid water, and he should not have on his person one single article used during his sickness nor one kept iu the sick room through this time. Neither should any one liable to infection enter his room, until everything which was there through the illness has been burned—not cleaned, nor given away, but dest/oyed by iiro— and the walls repapeivsd. the paint repainted, windows and floors scrubbed with water in which disinfectant has been mixed. No one can tell when tho moment of infection has come in sc.irlet fever, ar.d therefore from first to last, no risks should betaken. Any mother who has ever seen this dread disease stalking through the iand wiii find no vigilance too excessive. The room should be thoroughly cleansed and if the mattress'has en soiled the covering can be removed and washed with a disinfoctunt. Ne irly every sort, of fever, and every ease Oi each sort, has its peculiar features which nee:! especial care. In scarlet fever there will be the throat to be washed and watched, in typhoid the bowels will be the troublesome feature if once diarrhoea begins—though there is less of this now that physicians use milk so exclusively as food for typhoid patients. But in typhoid there is ap- I parently no'limit to the complication which may arise the lungs, the stomach, the heart, the brain all ire point-t of att clc.
