He has cultivated these ticks and killed cattle by inoculating them with the virus. This shows how subtle these germs are and how careful people ought to be in guarding against infectious maladies.

Rev T. DeWitt Talmage Continues to Talk on Egypt. Tim Oppressions of the Children of Israel by the Pharaohs of Old Find Pa* rallel la the Methods of Modern Egypt. The following discourse by Kev. T. DeWittTalmage,delivered in the Brooklyn tabernacle, Is the third of his series on wlipt he saw “From the Pyramids to the Acropolis.” His text was: The burden ot Egypt.- Isaiah xi*., 1. What is all^this excitement atiout In the streets of Cairo, Egypt, this December morning in 1889? Stand back! We hear loud voices and see the cro wds of people retreating to the sides of the street. The excitement of others becomes our own excitement. Footmen cikne in sight They have a rod in the hand and tasseled cap on. head, and their arms and feet are bare. Their garb is black to the waist except threaded with .gold, and the rest is white. They 8)* clearing the way for an official dignitary in a chariot or carriage. They are swift and sometimes run thirty or forty miles at a stretch in front ot an equipafre. Make way! They are the fleetest-footed mien on earth, but soon die, for the human frame was not made for such endurance. I asked all around me who the man in the garrlage was, but no one seemed to know. Yet as 1 fell back with the rest to the wall I said: Tills is the old custom found all up and down the Bible, footmen running befrtVO 4Vwv wnlaua. .Inmundmjf oWliR006| as in Gennesis before Joseph’s chariot the people were commanded, “Bow the knee.” and as I see the swift feet of the men followed by the swift feet of the horses, how those old wools of Jeremiah rushed through my mind: “If thou hast run with the footmen and they have wearied thee, how canst thou contend with horses?” We saw again and again on and along the Nile a boss workman roughly smite a subordinate who did not please him. It is no rare occurrence to see long lines of men under heavy burdens passing by task-masters at short distances, lushing them as they go by Into greater speed, and then these workmen, exhausted with the blasting heats of the day, lying down upon the bare ground, suddenly chilled with the nigljt air, crying out 3n prayer: “Ya! Allah!” “Ya! Allah!” which means, Oh! God! But what must have been the olden times cruelty shown by the Egyptians toward their Isaaelitish slaves is indicated by a picture In the Benl-Has-san tombs, where a man is held down on his face by two men and another holds up the victim’s feet while the officials heat the bare back of the victim, every stroke, I have no doubt, fetching the blood.

i lie goveruraeuuu oniraj'c uus always beteii a characteristic of Egyptian rulers. Taxation to the point of starvation was the Egyptian the Bible times as well as it is uraurtime. A modern traveler gives the figures concerning the cultivation of seventeen acres, the value of the yield of the field states in piastres: a Produce...1802 Kxpenscs.._ OMMl Clear produce. ... . . SUSt's Taxes.. 188 Amount cleared by tlie farmer. aiSVs Or, as my authority declares, seventy per cent of what the Egyptian farmer makes is paid for tuxes to the government.’ Now that is not so much taxation as assassination. What think yon of that? Yon who groan under heavy taxes in America? I have heard that in Egypt the working1 people have a song like this: “They starve ns, they starve us, they beat us, but there's some one above, there’s soihc one above, who will punish them well,' who will puntsli them well.” But seventy ptjf cent. of government tax in Egypt is a mercy as compared to what the Hebrew slaves Suffered there in Bible tiines. They got nothing but food hardly fit for a dog, and their clothing was of one rag, and their roof a burning sky by day and the stars of Heaven by night. You say: “Why did they stand it?” Because they had to stand it. You see, along back in the world’s twilight-there was a famine in Canaan, and old Jacob and his sons came to Egypt for bread. The old man’s boy Joseph was prime minister, and Joseph—I suppose the father and the brothers called him Joe, for it does not make any difference how much a boy is advanced in worldly success, his father and brothers and.sisters always call him by the same name that he was called by when two years old—Joseph, by Pliaroh’s permission, gave to his family, who had just arrived, the richest part of Egypt, the Westchester farms or the Lancaster farms of the ancients. Jacob's descendants rapidly multiplied. After awhile Egypt took a turn at famine, and those descendants of Jacob, the Israelites, came to a great store-house which Joseph had provided, and paid in money for corn. But alter awhile the money gave out and then they paid in cattle. After awhile the cattle were all in possession of the govment and then the Hebrews bought corn from the government by surrendering themselves as slaves.

tlicu UC^UU BiilVCIJf IILI . x at' govern ment owned all the Hebrews. And let modern lnnatics, who in America propose handing over telegraph companies and railroads and other things to be run by government see the folly of letting government get its hnnds on everything. I would rather trust the people than any government the United States had or ever will have. Worth to the day when legislatures and congresses and administrations get possession of anything more than it is necessary for them to have. That would lie the revival in this land of thut old Egyptian tyranny for which God has never had anything but redhot tliunder-bolts. But through such unwise processes Israel was enslaved in Egypt, and the long line of agonies began all up and down the Nile. Heavier and. sharper fell the lash, hungrier and ghastlier grew the work- ‘ men, louder and longer went up the prayer, until three millions of the enslaved were crying; “Yn ! Allah ! Ya! ■ Allah !” Oh! God ! Oh ! God! Where was help to come from? Not the tliroge; Pharaoh sat upon that, j Not the army; Pharaoh’s officers com-1 manded that. Not surrounding nations; Pharaoh’s threat made them all tremble. Not the godij Ammon and Osiris, or the goddess Isis, for Pharaoh built their temple out of the groans of this diabolical servitude. But one hot day the Princess Tlionoris, the daught< r of Pharaoh, while in her bathinghouse on the banks of the Nile, has word brought to her that there is a baby afloat on the river in a cradle made out of big leaven. Of course there is excitement all up and down tjie banks for an ordinary buby in an ordinary cradle attracts smiling atten-! tion, but an infant in a cradle of papyrus rocking on a river arouses not only admiration, but eurioeity. Who made that boat? Who made it watertight with bitumen? Who launched It? Reckless of the crocodiles who lay

tilt Thonorb rushes, out of the bathing house and says: “Beautiful foundling I will adopt you as my own. You shall yet wear the Egyptian crown and sit on the Egytian throne.” No! No! No! He is to be the emancipator of the Hebrews. Tell it in all the brick-kiln*. Tell it among all those who are writhing under the lash, tell it among all the catties of Memphis and Heliopolis and Zoan and Thebes Before him a sea will part. On a mountain top, alone, this one will receive from the Almighty a law that is to be the foundation of ail good law while the world lasts. When he is dead God will come down on Nebo and alone bury him, no man or woman or angel worthy to attend the obsequies. The child grows up and goes out and studies the horrors of Egyptian oppression and suppresses his indignation for the right time has not come, although once for a minute he let fly; and when he saw a task-mas-ter put the whip on the back of a workman wjjo was doing his best, and beard the poor fellow cry, and saw the blood spurt, Moses doubled up his flst and struck him on the temple till the cruel villain rolled over in the sand exanimate and never swung the lash again. Served him right! To the Egyptians the Nile was a deity. Its waters were then, as now, very delicious. It was the finest natural beverage of all the earth. We have no such love for the Hudson, and Germans have no such love for the Rhine, and Russians have no such love for the Volga, as the Egyptians have love for the Nile. But one day, when Pharaoh comes down to this river, Moses takes a stick and whips the waters and they turn into the gore of a slaughter-house, and through the sluices and fish-ponds the incarnadined liquid backs' up into the land and the malodor whelms everything from mud hovel to throne-room. Then came the frogs with horrible croak all over everything. Then this people, cleanly almost to fastidiousness, were Infested with insects that belong to the filthy aud unkempt, and the air buzzed and buzzed with flies, and then the distemper started cows to bellowing, and horses to neighing, and camels to groaning, as ’they rolled over and expired. And then boils, one of which will put a man in wretchedness, came in clusters from the top of the head to the sole of the foot And then the clouds dropped hail and lightning. And then locusts came in, swarms of. them, worse than the grasshoppers ever were in Kansas, and then darkness dropped for three days so that the people could not see their hand before their face, great surges of midnight covering them. And last of all, on the.night of the 18th

before Christ, the Destroying Angel sweeps past, and hear it all night long, the flap! flap! flap! of his awful wings until Egypt rolled on, a great hearse, the eldest child dead in every Egyptian home. The eldest son of Pharaoh expired last night in the palace, and all along the streets of Memphis ' and Heliopolis, and all up and down the Nile, there was a funeral wail that would have rent the fold of the unnaturaldarkness if it had not been impenetrable. The Jsraelitish homes, however, were untouched. But these homes were full of preparation, for now is your chance, O ye wronged Hebrews! Snatch up what pieces of food you can, and to the desert! Its simoons are better than the bondage you have suffered. Its scorpions will not sting so sharply as the wrongs that have stung you all yotfr lives. Awayf The man who was oradled in the basket of papyrus on the Nile will lead you. Up! Up! This is the night of your rescue. They gather together at a signal. Alexander's armies of olden time were led by torches on high poles, great crests of fire; and the Lord Almighty kindles a torch not lielc^ by human hands, but by Omnipotent hand. Not made out of straw or oil, but kindled out of the atmosphere, suoli a torch as the world?" never saw before and never will see again. It reached from the earth unto the heaven, a pillar of Are, that pillar practically saying: “This way! March this way!” On that supernatural flambeau more than a million refugees set their eyes. Moses and Aaron lead on. Then came the families of Israel. Then came the herds and flocks moving on across the sands to what is the beach of waters now called Bahr-el-Kulzum, but called in the Bible the Red sea. And when I dipped my hands in its blue waters, the heroics of the Mosaic passage rolled over me. After three days' march the Israelitish refugees encamped-for the night on the bank of the Red sea. As the shadows begin to fall in the distance is seen the host of Pharoah in pursuit. There were six hundred finest war chariots followed by common chariots rolling at full speed. And the rubling of the wheels and the curse of infuriated Egyptians came down with the darkness. But the Lord' opened the crystal gates of Bahr-el-Kulzum and the enslaved Israelites passed into liberty, and then the crystal gates of the sea rolled shut against the Egyptian pursuers. It was about two o’clock in the morning when the interlocked axle

trees ot tne nigypuan cnanots could not move an inch either way. Bnt the Red sea unhitched the horses and unheimeted the warriors, and left the proud host a wreck on the Arabian sands. Thai* two choruses arose, and Moses leAthe men in the one, and Miriam led the women in the other, and the women beat time with their feet. The record says: “All the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances. Ami Miriam answered them, sing ye to the Lord, for ,He has triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider hath He thrown into the sea.” What a thrilling story1 of endurance and victory. The greatest triumph of Handel’s genius was shown in his immortal dramatic oratorio, “Israel in Egypt” He had given to the world the oratorio of “Esther and Deborah,” and “Athaliah,” bat reserved for bin mightiest exertion at 'the full height of his. powers, the marshaling of all musical instruments to the description in harmony of the scenes on which we this morning dwell. He gave twenty-seven days to this production, with its twenty-eight choruses, enthralling his own time and all aftertime with 0s “Israel in Egypt.” So the burden of oppression was lifted, but another burden of Egypt is made up of deserts. Indeed, Africa is a great continent for deserts. Libyan desert, Sahara desert, deserts here and there, and yonder, condemning vast regions of Africa to barrenness, one of the deserts three thousand miles long and a thousand miles wide.. But all those deserts will yet be flooded, and so made fertile. De Lesseps says it can be done, and he who planned the Suez canal which marries the Red sea and tlie Mediterranean knows what he is talking about. The human race is so multiplied that it must have more cultivated land, and the world must abolish its deserta Eight hundred million of the human race are now living on lands not blessed with rains, but dependent upon irrigation, and we want | by irrigation to make room for eighthundred million more. By irrigation the prophesy will be fulfilled, and “the desprt will blossom as the rose.” So from Egypt the burden of sand will be lifted.

was their beW , ■ "u ™*"h of the peled to make brick* without straw. That was the last straw that broke the camel’s-hack. God would allow the despotism against His people Jo go no farther. Making bricks without straw! That oppression still goes on. Demand of your wife appropriate wardrobe and bountiful table without providing the means necessary. Bricks without straw. Cities demanding in the public school faithful and successful instruction without giving the teachers competent livllihood. Bricks with straw. United States government demanding of senators and congressmen at Washington full attendance to the interests of the people, but on compensation which may have done well enough when twenty-live cents went as far as a dollar now, but in these times not sufficient to preserve their influence and respectability—bricks without straw. In many parts of the land churches demanding of pastors vigorous sermons and sympathetic service on starvation salary, sanctified Ciceros on four hundred dollars . a year—bricks without straw. This is one reason why there are so many poor bricks. In all departments, brlckB not even, or bricks that crumble, or bricks that are not bricks at alt Work adequately paid for is worth more than work not paid for. More straw and then better bricks. But in all departments there are Pharoahs! Sometimes capital a Pbaroah. and sometimes labor- a Pharoah. When capital prospers, and makes large percentage on its investment, and declines to consider the needs of the operatives, and treats them as so many human machines, their nerves no more than the bands on the factory wheels —then capital is a Pharoah. On the other hand, when. workmen, not regarding the anxieties and business struggles of the firm employing them, and at a time when the firm are doing their best to meet an important contract and need all the hands busy to accomplish it, at such a time to have his employes to make a strike and put their employers into extreme perplexity and severe loss—then labor becomes a Pharoah of the worst oppression, and must' look out for the judgments of God. When in December of 1889, at the museum of Boulac, Egypt, 1 looked at the mummies of the old Pharaohs, the very miscreants who diabolized centuries, and I saw their teeth and hair ahd finger nails and the flesh drawn tight over their cheek bones, the sarcophagi of these dead monarchs side by side, and I was so fascinated I could only with difficulty, get away from the

spot. i was not looaing1 upon tue last of the pharaohs. All over the world old merchants playing the Pharaoh over young merchants, old lawyers playing the Pharaoh over young lawyers, old doctors playing the Pharaoh over young doctors, old artists playing the Pharaoh over young artists, old ministers playing the Pharaoh over young ministers. Let all oppressors, whether in homes, in churches in stores, in offices, in factories, in social life or political life, in private life or public life, know that (Jod hates oppressors, and they will all come to grief here ’or hereafter. Pharaoh thought he did a fine thing, a cunning thing, a decisive thing when for the complete extinction of the Hebrews in Egypt he ordered all the Hebrew boys massacred, but he did not find it so fine a thing when his own first-born that night of the destroying angel dropped dead, on the mosaic flotAat the foot of the porphyry pillar of the palace. Let all the Pharaohs take warning. Some of the worst of them are on a small scale in households as when a man, because his arm is strong and his voice loud, dominates his poor wife into a domestic slavery. There are thousands of such cases where the wife is a life-time serf, her opinion disregarded, her tastes insulted, and her existence a wretchedness, though the world may not know it It is a Pharaoh that sits at the head of that tably, and a Pharaoh that tyrannizes that home. There is no more abhorrent Pharaoh than a domestic Pharaoh. There are thousands of women to whom death is passage from Egypt to Canaan, because they get rid of a cruel taskmaster. What an accursed monster is that man who keeps his wife in dread about family expenses, and must be cautions how she introduces an articlo of millinery, or womanly wardrobe without humiliating consultation and apology. Vtpjp is that man acting so? For sii months—in order to win that woman’s heart, he sent her every few days a bouquet wound with white ribbon, and an endearing couplet, and took her to concerts and theaters, and helped her into carriages as though she were a princess, and ran across the -room to pick up her pocket handkerchief with , the speed of an antelope, and on the marriage day premised all that the liturgy required, saying “I will!” with an emphasis that excited the admiration of all spectators. But how he begrudges her two cents for a postage stamp, and wonders why she rides across Brooklyn bridge when the foot passage costs nothing. He thinks now she is awfully plain, and he acts like the devil, while he thunders out: “Where

more Pharaohs. t it rolls over on me with great sr the thought that we have all slaves down in Egypt, and sin has our taskmaster, and again and a we have felt its lash.

Hurry up, now, and get my slippers! Where’s the newspaper?” The tone, the look, the impatience —the cruelty of a Pharaoh. That is what gives so many wo/nen a coweddown look. Pharaoh.! you had better take your iron heel oft that woman’B neck or God will help you remove your heel. She says nothing. For the sake of avoiding a scandal she keeps silent; bother tears and wrongs have gone into a record that you -will have to meet as certainly as Pharaoh had to meet hail, and lightning, and darkness, and the death angel. God never yet gave to any man the right to tyrannise a woman, and what a sneak you are to take advantage of the married vow, and because she can not help herself, and under the shelter of your own home out-pharaoh the Egyptian oppressor. There is something awfully wrong in a household where*tlie woman is not considered as of much importance as the man.

' BOTH SIDES. Mr. Sprin««r Shows Tint 1* la Better For the Phraser to Hove * Market on Both SMes of the Oeeaa. C Nothing shoujfonore clearly the aim of the advocaUMB a high tariff than the following tew criticism of their doctrines made ^ by Congressman Springer in a speech at Spencer, Iowa, September 18,1891: “While Mr. Blaine and his especial admirers are landing the policy of reciprocity with Cuba, Porto Rico and Brasil, and are searching for a new market for another pound of pork or barrel* of flour, where they are least likely to find it, Mr. McKinley is hold* ing aloft in Ohio the policy of the Chinese wall of exclusion. He ad* dressed an audience of farmers on the 18th of August last, in Richland county, on which occasion he pointed out the advantages to be derived from a home market, and showed how nice it was to have a factory adjoining the farm. He said “the farmers wanted to raise the bread to sell to factory bands.’ He then submitted to his audience this question, and got the answer desired. I quote from a report of his speech as published in one of his partisan organs: ** ‘Would the farmers of Richland county rather have their customers on this side or on . the other side of the ocean?’ [A voice, "This side.’J ‘Of course you would.’ “This is the whole creed of the protectionists. Your market must be on this side of the o.-ean only. The response Maj. McKinley received was from one of bis misguided partisans. If a democrat bad cared to submit au answer, he would have said: *On both sides.’ What farmer is there in Iowa who would not rather have the market for his pork products on both sides of the ocean than on this side only? Mr. McKinley’s policy would suggest to all the other governments on the other ride of the ocean to tollow.the example of Germany and France in restricting the sale of our pork products If he could have his views carried out, all foreign governments would prohibit the sale therein—not only of our pork products, but of all our products. We -would then have all our customers 'on this side of the ocean.’ Would you rather have it thus, my farmer friends? Mr. McKinley and protectionists generally answer: 'Of course you would.’ But I trust you will answer for yourselves in November next by your votes, that you prefer to have your customers on both sides of the ocean. Then you must vote for the re-election of Gov. Boies in Iowa and Gov. Campbell in Ohio, and for democratic candidates wherever elections are held." How much would the farmers be getting now for their wheat and corn were their markets confined, as advocated by Major McKinley, to the United States? :

THE RICH FAVORED. How the Tariff “Chinese Wall” Places the Poor at the Here; of the Trusts. When the tariff shuts out goods entirely it is always such goods as poorer people buy; rich people buy what suits their tastes, whatever the price may be. An illustration of this is found in our imports of carpets. The - carpets imported in the fiscal year 1890 came in at an average value of $1.16 a yard. The treasury report shows that the average value for the fiscal year ended June 80. 1891, was $2.08 a yard. 9 But the report gives a still more interesting insight into the workings of the McKinley duty. One part of it gives an extended comparison of the imports for the nine months from October, 1890 to June 30, 1891, with those of the same months in the previous year. The McKinley tariff went into effect on October 6 last year, and the imports of carpets from October 1 to June 80 were valued at $2.41 a yard. The same thing is shown in cotton cloth. That which came in under nine months of the McKinley law was valued at 13>£ cents a yard as against 11 9-0 cents for the corresponding nine months under the old law. These figures were gotten up by the treasury department at the cost of much labor and money to show the beautiful workings of the McKinley tariff law. What they do show is that the rich are going on buying European goods while the poor are shut up to the tender mercies of the “home market,” plastered over as it is with tariff trusts and combinations. These figures explode one of the most deeply cherished superstitions of the high tariff cranks. They say that when you put up the tariff the foreigner will reduce his prices in order to get into our market, and in this way he will pa; our tariff taxes. The figures just quoted go to show that the foreigner is not doing any such thing. They show that he is continuing to sell high priced goods to the rich people of America, while the poorer classes are simply left. A ROSE BY ANY OTHER NAME.

Madison and Webster on Free Trade—Hiscock and the New York Press on “Heolproe tjp"-Wherein l»o They Differ. During the debate on the tariff of 1789 James Madison, who represented a portion of Virginia, and was the leader of his party in the house, declared: “I own myself fhe friend to a very free system of commerce, and hold it as a truth that commercial shackles are generally unjust, oppressive and impolitic; it is also a truth that if industry and labor are left to take their own course they would generally be directed to those objects which are the more productive, and this in a more certain and direct manner than the most enlightened legislature could point out” Such were Madison’s views, and in view of this the high protectionists of to-day charge that Madison was a free trader. Thirty-five years later Daniel Webster, in replying to Henry Clay who was advocating his “American system,” said: "Commerce is not a gambling among nations for a stake, to be won by some and lost by others. It has not the tendency'necessarily to impoverish one of the parties to it, while it enriches the other; all parties gain, all parties make profits, all parties grow rich by the operation of just and liberal commerce. We inhabit a various earth. We have reciprocal wants and reciprocal means of gratifying one another’s wants. This is the true origin of- commerce, which is nothing more than an exchange of equivalents, and from the rude barter of its primitive state to the refined and complete condition in which we see it its principle is uniformly the same, its only object being in every stage to produce that exchange of commodities between individuals and between nations which shall conduce to the advantage and happiness of botlj.” When Webster uttered such truths a* these he was taunted by Clay and his followers with being a free trader and hostile to the best interests of hia country. The New York . Press, however, quotes the above in its issue of October 3 as a definition of the reciprocity advocated by Blaine and his followers. And, finally, Senator Hisoock, who recently addressed the farmers at the Orange county fair, declared: “Briefly. Aciprocity is the same relation between nations as that which exists between two farmers who are neighoora" It is a puxzie to figure out wherein the free trade of Madison and Webster jiff era from reciprocity qt Hia is*? -c?', _ . ; ' .

You can't believe some dealers always. They want to sell the medicine that pays them the^ largest profit. What yon want to bay.is the one that does yon the most good. Which one is it?
