DR. TALMAGB SPEAKS OP THE USES OF ADVERSITY. A Consoling: Interpretation of the Pialmlit'i Mord, "Put Thon Mr Tear Into Thy Hottle" God's Ac qnalalanrr with Our Griefs Comfort for the Afflicted. BROOKLYN, Aug. 27. Rev. T. De Witt Talmage chose a unique theme as his subject for today viz., "A Bottle of Tears," the text selected being Psalms lvi, 8. "Put thi a my tears into thy bottle." Hardly a mail has come to me for twenty yedrs that has not contained letters saying that my Bermons have; comforted the writers of those letters. I have not this summer nor for twenty years spoken on the platform of any outdoor meeting, but coming down I have been told by hundreds of people the same thing. So I think I will keep on trying to be a "son of consolation." The prayer of my text was pressed out of David's soul by innumerable calamities, but it is just as appropriate for the distressed of all ages. Within the past centuiy travelers and antiquarians have explored the ruins of many of the ancient cities, and from the very heart of those buried splendors of other days have been brought up evidences of customs that Ions ago vanished from the world. From among tombs of those ages have been brought up lachrymatories, or lachrymals, which are vials made of earthenware. It was the custom for the ancients to catch the tears that they wept over their dead In a bottle, and to place that bottle in the graves of the departed, and we have many specimens of the ancient lachrymatories, or tear bottle. In our museums. When on the way from the Holy Land our ship touched at Cyprus, we went back into the hills of that island and tought tear bottles which the natives had dug out of the ruins of the old city. There is nothing more suggestive to me than the tear bottles which I brought home and put among my curiosities. That was the kind of bottle that my text alludes to when David cries, "Put thou my tears into thy bottle." God Known Our CrJrfa. The text intimates that God has an Intimate acquaintance and perpetual remembrance of all our griefs, and a vial, or lachrymatory, or bottle, in which he catches and saves our tears, and I bring to you the condolence of this Christian sentiment. Why talk about grief? Alas, the world has its pangs, and now, while I speak, there are thick darknesses of eoul that need to be lifted. There are many who are about to break under the assault of temptation, and perchance, If no words appropriate to their ca.se be uttered, they perish. I come on no fxl"s errand. Put upon your wounds no salve compounded by human quackery; but, pressing1 straight to the mark, I hail you as a vessel amidsea cries to a passing craft, "Ship ahoy!" and invite you on board a vessel which has faith for a rudder, and prayer for sails, and Christ for captain, and heaven fir an eternal harbor. Catharine Rhelnfeldt, a Prussian, keeps a boat with which she rescues the drowning. When a storm comes on the coast, and other people go to their beds to rest, che puts out in her boat for the relief of distressed, and hundreds of the drowning has she brought safely to the beach. In this lifeboat of the gospel I put out today, hoping, by God's help, to bring ashore at least one soul that may now be sinklnjr in the billows of temptation and trouble. The tears that were once caught in the lachrymatories brought up from Herculaneum and I'oinIeii are ail gone, and the bottle Is as dry as the scoria of the volcano that submerged t hf-m, but not so with th bottle In which (Jod gathers all our tears. First, I remark that God keeps perpetually the tears of repentance. Many a man has awaken in the morninsr so wretched from th nignfs debauch that he has sobU-d and wept. Pains in 1ru" head. arhinsr in the eyes, sick at heart and unfit to step into the li?ht. He grieves, not about his misdoing, but only about its consequences. (Jod makes no record f't such weeping. Of all the million tears that have gushed as the result of such misdemeanor, not one ever got into (iod's bottle. They dried on th fevered c""ek. or were dashed down by the bloated hand, or fell into the red wine cup as it came flRain to the lips foaming with still worse intoxication. Put when a man is sorry for his past and tries to do better when he mourns his wasted advantages and bemoans his rejection of God's mercy and cries amid the lacerations of an aroused conscience for help out of his terrible predicament then God listens; then heaven bows down; ihr-n scepters of pardon are extended from the throne; then his crying rends the heart of heavenly compassion, then his tears are caught in Clod's bottle. You know th story of paradise and the i eri. I think it misht be put to higher adaptation. An am?el starts from the throne f God to find what thing it can on the arth worthy of being carried back to heaven. It goes down through the gold and silver mines of earth, but finds nothing worthy of transportation to the celestial city. It goes down through the depths of the sea, where the pearls He, and lin-ls nothing worthy of taking back to heaven. Put coming tw the foot of a mountain it sees a wanderer weeping over his evil ways. The tears of the prodigal strrt, but do not fall to the ground, far the anstel's wing catches them, and with that treasure speeds back to heaven. God sees the angel coming and says. "Pehold the brightest pern of earth and the brightest Jewel of heaven the tear of a sinner's repentance." Oh! when I see the heavenly Shepherd bringing a lamb from the wilderness; when I hear the 'qi.lck tread of the prodigal hastening home to find his father; when I see a sailor boy coming on the wharf and hurrying away to beg his mother's pardon fcr long neglect and unkindness; when I see the houseless coming to God for shelter, and the wretched, and the vile, and the sinburned, and the passion-blasted appealing for mercy to a compassionate God, I exclaim In ecstacy and triumph, "More tears for God's bottle!" IJodlly Affliction. Again, God keeps a tender remembrance of all your sickness. How many of you are thoroughly sound In body? Not one out of ten! I do not exaggerate. The vast majority of the race are constant subjects of ailments. There is some one form of disease that you are particularly subject to. You have a weaR side or back, or are subject to headaches or faintness or lungs easily distressed. It would not take a very strong blow to shiver the golden bowl of life or break the pitcher at the fountain. Many of you have kept on In life through sheer force of will. You think no one can understand your distresses. Perhaps you look strong, and It Is supposed that you are a hypochondriac. They say you are nervous as if that were nothing! God have mercy upon any man or woman that Is nervous! At times you sit alone In your room. Friends do not come. You feel an indescribable loneliness In your sufferings, but God knows: God feels; (Jod compassionates. He counts the sleepless nights; he regards the acuteness of the pain; he estimates the hardness of the breathing. While you pour out the medicine from the bottle and count the drops God

cunts all your falling tears. As you look at the vials filled with nauseous drafts, and at the bottles of distasteful tonic that stand on the shelf, remember that there is a larger bottle than these, which is filled with no mixture by earthly apothecaries, but it is God's bottle, in which he hath gathered all out tears. Again, God remembers all the sorrows of poverty. There is much want that never comes to inspection. The deacons of the church never see It. The comptrollers of almshouses never report it. It comes not to church, for it has no appropriate apparel. It makes no appeal for help, but chooses rather to suffer than expose Its bitterness. Fathers who fail to gain a livelihood, so that they and their children submit to constant privation; sewing women who cannot ply the needle quick enough to earn them shelter and bread. But whether reported or uncomplaining, whether In seemingly comfortable parlor or In damp cellar or in hot garret, God's angels of mercy are on the watch. This moment those griefs are being collected. Down on the back streets, in all the alleys, amid shanties and log cabins, the work goes on. Tears of want seething In summer's heat or freezing In winter's cold they fall not unheeded. They are Jewels for heaven's casket. They are pledges of divine sympathy. They are tears for God's bottle. Paternal Anxieties. Again, the Lord preserves the remembrance of all paternal anxieties. You see a man from the most infamous surroundings step out into the kingdom of God. He has heard no sermon. He has rc-celved no startling providential warning. What brought him to this new mind? This is the secret: God looked over the bottle In which he gathers the tears of his people, and he saw a parent's tear in that bottle which has been for forty years unanswered. He said, "Go to. now, and let Me answer that tear!" and forthwith the wanderer is brought home to God. Oh. this work of training children for God! It is a tremendous work. Some people think it easy. They have never tried it. A child is placed in the arms of the young parent. It is a beautiful plaything. You look into the laughing eyes. You examine the dimples in the feet. You wonder at its exquisite organism. Beautiful plaything! But on some nightfall, as you sit rocking that little one. a voice seems to fall straight from the throne of God. saying, "That child is immortal! The stars shall die. but that is an immortal! Suns shall grow old with age and perish, but that is an Immortal!" ' Now. I know with many of you this Is the chief anxiety. You earnestly wish your children to grow up rightly, but you find it hard work to make them do as you wish. You check their tamper. You correct their waywardness. In the midnight your pillow is wet with weeping. You have wrestled with God in agony for the salvation of your children. You ask me if all that anxiety has been ineffectual. I answer, No. God understands how hard you have tried to make that daughter do right, though she is so very petulant and reckless, and what pains you have bestowed in teaching that son to walk in the path of uprightness, though he has such strong proclivities for dissipation. I speak a cheering word. God heard every counsel you ever offered him. God has known all the sleepless nights you have ever passed. God has seen every sinking of your distressed spirit. God remembsrs your prayers. He keeps eternal record of your anxieties, and in His lachrymatory, not such ns stood In anrlent tomb, but In one that glows and glitters beside the throne of God, He holds all those exhausting tears. The grass may be rank upon your graves and the letters upon your tombstone defaced with the elements before the divine response will come, but He who hath declared. "I will be a God to thee and to thy seed after thee," will not forget, and some day In heaven while you are ranging the fields of light the gates of pearl will swing back, and garlanded with glory that long wayward one will rush into your outstretched aims of welcome and triumph. The hills inav depart, and the earth mav burn, and the stars fall, and time perish, but God will break His oath and trample upon His promises never! never! Our Bereavement. Again, God keeps a perpetual remembrance of all bereavements. These are the trials that cleave the soul and throw the red hearts of men to be crushed in the wine-press. Troubles at the store you may leave at the store. Misrepresentation and abuse of the world you may leave on the stre-'t where you found them. The law suit that would swallow your honest accumulations may be loft in the court room. Put bereavements are home troubles, and there is no escape from them. You will see that vacant chair. Your eye will catch at the suggestive picture. You cannot fly the presence of such ills. You go to Switzerland to get ch ar of them; but more sure-footed than the mule that takes you up the Alps, your troubles climb to the tiptop and sit shivering on the glaciers. You may cross the seas, but they can outsail the swiftest steamer. Y'ou may take caravan and put out across the Arabian desert, but they follow you like a simoon, arnvnl with suffocation. You plunge into the Mammoth cave, but they hang like stalactites from the roof of the great cavern. They stand behind with skeleton fingers to push you ahead. They stand bcf re you to push you back. They run upon you like reckless horsemen. They charge upon you with gleaming spear. They seem to come haphazard, scattering shots from the gun of a careless sportsman. Put not so. It Is good aim that tends them Just rltrht, for God Is the archer. This summer many of you will especially feel your grief as you go to places where once you were accompanied by those who are gone now. Your troubles will follow you to the seashore and will keep up with the lightning express In which you speed away. Or tarrying at home they will sit beside you by day and whisper over your pillow night after night. I want to assure you that you are not left alone, and that your weeping Is heard In heaven. You will wander among the hills and say. "Up this hill last year our boy climbed with great glee and waved his cap from the top," or, "This is the place where our little girl put flowers In her hair and looked up in her mother's face," until every drop of blood In your heart tingled with gladness, and you thanked God with a thrill of rapture, and you look around as much as to say: "Who dashed out that lisrht? Who filled this cup with gall? What blast froze up these fountains of the heart?" Some of you have lost your parents within the last twelvemonth. Their prayers for you are ended. You take up their picture and try to call back the kindne that once looked out from those old, wrinkled faces and spoke In such tremulous voice, and you say It Is a good picture. Put all the while you feel that after all it does not do Justice, and you would give almost anything you would cross the sea, you would walk the

Now, you have done your best to hlda your grief. You smile when you do not feel like It. But though you may deceive the world, God knows. He looks down upon the empty cradle, upon the desolated nursery, upon the stricken home and upon the broken heart and says: "This is the way I thrash wheat; this Is the way I scour my jewels! Cast thy burden on my arm, and I will sustain you. All those tears I have gathered Into my bottle!" But what Is the use of having so many tears In God's - lachrymatory ? In that great casket or vase why docs God preserve all your troubles? Through all the ages of eternity, what use of a great collection of tears? I do not know that they will be kept there forever. I do not know but that In some distant age of heaven an angel of God may look Into the bottli and find it as empty of tears as the lachrymals of earthenware dug up from the ancient city. Where have the tears gone? What spirit of hell hath been invading God's palace and hath robbed the lachrymatories? None. These were sanctified sorrows, and those tears were changed into pearls that are now set in the crowns and robes of the ransomed. I walk up to examine this heavenly coronet, gleaming brighter that the sun, and cry, "From what river depths of heaven were those gems gathered?" and a thousand voices reply, "These are transmuted tears from the God's bottle." I see scepters of light stretched down from the throne of those who on earth were trod on of men, and in every scepter point, and inlaid in every ivory stair of golden throne, I behold an Indescribable richness and luster, and cry, "From whence this streaming light these flashing pearls?" and the voices of the elders before the throne, and of the martyrs under the altar, and of the hundred and forty and four thousand radiant on the glassy sea exclaim, "Transmuted tears from God's bottle." In KrerlaatinK Evidence. Let the ages of heaven roll on the story of earth's pomp and pride long ago ended. The kohinoor diamonds that maka kings proud, the precious stones that adorned Persian tiara and flamed in the robes of Babylonian processions forgotten; the Golconda mines charred In the last conflagration; but, firm as the everlasting hills, and pure as the light that streams from the throne, and bright as the river that flows from the eternal rock, shall gleam, shall sparkle, shall flame forever these transmuted tears of God's bottle. Meanwhile let the empty lachrymatory of heaven stand forever. Set no hand touch It. Let no wing strike It. Let no collision crack it. Purer than beryl or chrysoprasus. Let it stand on the step of Jehovah's throne and under the arch of the unfading rainbow. Passing down the corridors of the palace, the redeemed of earth shall glance at it and think of all the earthly troubles from which they were delivered and say each to each: "That is what we Imird of on earth." "That Is what the psalmist spoke of." "There once were put our tears." "That Is God's bottle." And while standing there inspecting this richest inlaid vase of heaven, the towers of the palace deme strike up this lively chime: "God hath wiped away all tears from all faces. Wherefore comfort one another with these words." HERE'S A PRETTY MESS. ax i:glisii rnixr rated ox a G Kit MAN' THKO.E, And lie Uni a rtnnalnn Wife at That A Condition Which Cuuaen n.

Duke Ernest was born June 21, ISIS. He was the son of Duke Ernest I of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfleld and of the Duchess Dorothea Louise, Princess Louise of Gotha Altenburg. lie married on May 3, 1843, Princess Alexandrine, daughter of the late Grand Duke Leopold of Baden, and succeeded to the throne of the duchy on the death of his father, Jan. 29, 1644. The duke being childless the throne now falls to the duke of Edinburgh, the second son of Queen Victoria and her late consort. Prince Albert, who was the brother of Duke Ernest. The duke of Edinburgh thus becomes a reigning German prince. Duke Ernest was on of the first of the German rulers to propose and work for the establishment of German unity, and was the first German ruler to congratulate King William of Prussia on his proclamation as German emperor. COBUKG. Aug. 23. Emperor William arrived at Roinhardsbrunn this morning, having traveled from Berlin on a special train. The duke of . Edinburgh was today formally recognized as the ruler of the duchy. He has been spending some time in Germany and when the condition of Duke Ernest became critical he was notified and at once came to thia city. He was at the castle of Roinhardsbrunn when his uncle died and there today took the oath of allegiance to the constitution in the presence of Emperor William and all the ministers. Prime Minister Strenge formally thanked Emperor William for attending the ceremony. The emperor went to Roinhardsbrunn at the request of the duke of Edinburgh. The diet will meet on Saturday for the purpose of swearing allegiance to the new ruler of the duchy. The body cf Duke En.est has been embalmed. It will lie in state In the castle on Friday. On Monday It will be Interred in this city In the Moritzklrce at noon. The succession of the duke of Edinburgh to the throne of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha instead of his son, Prince Albert, Is much commented upon In this city. The views entertained here were that an English prince with a Russian consort was an Impossibility as a German ruler. Prior to the duke of Edinburgh taking the oath of allegiance to the constitution today he and Emperor William had a long and secret convention at the castle of Roinhardsbrunn. Many telegraphic dispatches have passed today between Roinhardsbrunn and Osborne house. Queen Victoria's residence on the Isle of Wight.

LESSOX X. THIRD QUARTER, IXTEIt. XATIOXAL. SERIES, SEPT. 3. Text of the Lesson, Acts xxvll, :t0-44 Memory Verses, 42-44 Goldeu Text, Pa. xlvl, 1 Commentary by the Rev. D. M. Stearns. 30. 'And as the 6hlpmen were about to flee out of the ship, when they had let down the boat into the sea, under color as though they would have cast anchors out of the foreship." I feel grieved to begin this lesson with the treachery of these sailors, when such rich food for the soul Is in verses 22 to 23. so strangely omitted by the lesson committee. 31. "Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers. Except these abide In the ship ye cannot be saved." Paul was only promised the lives of those with him In the ship (verse 24); if they should start off in the boat by themselves, he could not be responsible for them. Noah was given those with him in the ark, and Rahab those with her In the house. Only those can be saved who are In Christ, and abiding Is the evidence that we are truly in Him (John x, 27, 28; I John 11, 19). 32. "Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat and let her fall off." It looked like throwing away their only hope, but it was really their own safely. In order to be saved by Christ we must let go our own righteousness, our own works and even our own ways and thoughts in fact, all that we have (Isa. lxiv. 6; Titus 11, 5; Isa. Iv, 7, and Luke xlv. 33). 33. "And while the day wis coming on Paul besought them all to take meat." They had endured fourteen days of such tempestuous weather that they had little opportunity and perhaps little desire to taste food. In verse 20 we read that all hope of ever seeing land had been given up. But now there is light in the darkness. He who controls the winds and the sea (Mark Iv, 39) had for His servant's sake sent a message of peace. 34. "This is for your health, for there shall not an hair fall from the head of any of you." This is a common old and new testament Illustration' of perfect safety. See I Sam. xlv. 45; II Sam. xlv, 11; I Kings I. 52; Math. x. 30; Luke xll. 7; xxl. 18. Even concerning Daniel's friends who were cast into the seven times heated furnace it is written that there was not a hair of their heads singed (Dan. ill. 27). 33. "And when he had thus spoken he took bread and gave thanks, to God in the presence of them all, and when he had broken it he began to eat." Thus he glorified God, whose he was and whom he served. Thus he magnified Christ in his body (Phil. 1, 20). He testified before all that he knew God; that he trusted in God and that he had dealings with God. He gave thanks for deliverance when It wa3 not yet visible except to faith. SG. "Then were they all of good cheer, and they also took some meat." He not only exhorted them to be of good cheer, but being of good cheer himself he Influenced others to do likewise (verses 22-23). Compare Acts xxiii, 11. Math, ix, 2-22, and John xvi, 33. If we steadfastly believe God we will be filled with Joy and peace (Rom. xv, 13), and Inasmuch as it Is Impossible for any of us to live unto ourselves (Rom. xlv, 7) we must of necessity influence others to be cheerful also. 37. "And we were in all In the ship two hundred, threescore and sixteen souls." Think of 275 people saved from a watery grave by one man. Ten righteous men would have saved Sodom from Its fiery overthrow. How many thousands have been saved from eternal death by such men as Spurgeon. Moody, Munhall, Needham and others? What is vour Influence in the world? Does It tend to the health and safety of others, or are you a troubler and a dishonor to the Prince of Peace? S3. "And when they had eaten enough they lightened the ship and cast out the wheat into the sea." The angel had told Paul, and he had passed it on that the ship would be lost (verse 22). There was, therefore, no object In attempting longer to preserve the cargo. The life is more than meat, and to lierhten the ship would tend to their safety. If some Christians would unload some of their wealth for the good of others and for Jesus's sake it would be better for them, both for this world and for the world to come. 33. "And when it was day they knew not the land." How welcome the daylight would be and also the sight of the land, since they knew that all would somehow reach it in safety! The storm was still on, and on a lee shore as they were there would seem to be more danger of their lives than ever, but the word of God had been given that no life would be lost. How happy and peaceful should those be whose anchor is within the vale, sure and steadfast (Heb. vi. 19)! 40. "And when they had taken up the anchors they made toward the shore." Now came the greatest danger apparently, for might they not all be dashed to pieces? No, for the word of God was pledged on their behalf. One who trusts In that word can say: "Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea" (Ps. xlvi, 2). 41. "And falling Into a place where two seas met they ran the ship aground." Thus part remained immovable, while the rest was soon broken by the waves, and the vessel that "had held together through all the tempest on the 6eas and kept them from going to the bottom was now a hopeless wreck. It came to pass as Paul had been told the ship should be lost (verso 22). 42. "And the soldiers' counsel twas to kill the prisoners, lest any of them should swim out and escape." It was because of one of these prisoners that all were alive. They were glad enough to listen to his words of encouragement in the storm, but now they would ruthlessly take his life If permitted. Ah. Paul, thou hadst much fellowship with thy Master, for tho.e whom He came to bless actually took His life. When shall we learn the )esp jti that the servant is not greater tfc;u his master and be well content to be as He (John xv. 19, 20)? 43. "But the centurion, willing to save Paul, kep them from their purpose." The records of the centurions whom the Lord used to accomplish Ills purposes or who were led to know Him as their Lord is most Instructive. The name of this one is given In verse 1. Compare chapter x, 22, and see also Math, vlll, 5. 6, 10; xxvil, 64. 44. "And so It came to pass that they escaped all safe to land." What God and angels testify we may surely believe, for "The Lord of Hosts hath sworn, saying, surely as I have thought so shall it come to pass, and as I have purposed so shall It stand" (Isa. xlv, 21). May the fulfillment of the- words of this angel lead us to' believe firmly the words of some other angels who said, "This same Jesus shall so come in like manner." And also the words of Gabriel, that "tht Lord God shall give unto Him the throne of His father David, and He shall reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of His kingdom there shall be no end" cts i. 11; Luge 1. 32. 33).
