T. _jape in the Brooklyn taberthe test being: Likewise Joy shall be in Heaven over one sinner that reienteth, more than over ninety aai nine jest persons who need no repentnuee.— Luke xv„ 7. A lost sheep! Nothing can be more thoroughly ■ lost. 1 look through the window of a shepherd's house at night. The candies are lighted. The shepherd has jnst placed his sta/T against the inantie. lie has taken off - his coat, shaken ovvt of it the dust and hung it up. I Bee by the candle light that there mre neigh t ors who have come in. The shepherd, lagged out by the long tramp, sit! down on a bench, and the wife and c lildren and neighbor8.say to him: “Come now,' tell us how you found the ppor thing." *‘\Vell,’i-*%e says, “this morning I JRTfiff out to tJtS yand to look at the flock. No sooner looked over the fence that I saw something wrong. The fact was they did not'^unt right. Nincty-flve, ninety-sis, nine^seven, ninety-eigtli, ninety-nine—only finely* 'nine. McDonald, you know we bad one hundred. And I wondered which one was gone, and I began again, and' I counted ninety-five, ninety-six,ninety-seven, ninety-eight, ninety-nine. AVell, I whistled up the dogs, and started over the fields and across the bridges, and X tracked the moors and I leaped the gullies, but no bleating of thVpoor thing did I-hear. I said to myself: “The lamb must have-fallen into a ditch, or a pack of wolves from the mountains must have torn it to pieces and sucked its life ont." But 1 could not give it up. You see it was a pet lamb. It was that one with the black spot on tire right shoulder, that used to come and liek my band as I crossed the field, and somehow I could not givo it up, So I went on, and on, and on, Until after awhile I heard the dogs bark, and I said: “What’s that?” Then I hastened to the top the hill, and I looked down, and there I saw the poor lamlx 11 bad fallen into the ditch, and as I came where it was, and bent over the ditch, sr.d stooping down to lift the poor thing out, I wish you could have seen the loving, and imploring and tender way it looked at me. I lifted it out, and it was all covered with the slush and the mud. It was an awful thing to do, but I lifted it out, and it was so lame and so weak it conlft not walk alone, so I threw it over my shoulders anti I started homeward; and the' condition of that lamb you may judge of from the coat which I have just hung up But I tramped on and on until it is safe in the yard, y>oor thing! Thank God, thank God! Then the shepherd's wife spread the table, and brought ont the best fare that the cabin could afford, and they sat up very late- that night, and they talked, and they laughed, and they sang, and thoy ate, and they drank,and they danced, and told over and over and over again the story of the lost sheep that was found. With such tenderness and rusticity of i illustration does Christ represent the soul’s going off, and the soul’s coming back, when He says: “Likewise there is joy in Heaven among the angels of God over one sinner that ropenteth more than over ninety and nine just persons that need no repentance.” To repent, is to feel that you are bad, and to be sorry about it, and to turn over a new leaf, and to pray for forgiveness and help Just as soon as a man does that they hegj* right away of it in Heaven.

mere are no gossips in giory, going around to chatter and laugh when a man falls; but there.are many souls in ^flory who are glad to run about and tell it when a man ia saved. The news goes very quick from gate to gate, and from north wall to south wall, and from cast wall to west wall, and in three minutes every citizen of Heaven has heard of it; for “there is joy in Heaven.among the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.” I can very easily understand how there should be joy in Heaven over a Pentecost with three thousand souls saved in one day—no mystery about that; I can understand how there’ should he joy in Heaven over the parish of Schotts, when four hundred souls were saved under one sermon of Mr. Livingston; I can .understand how there should bo -Joy in Heaven over the great awakening in the time of Harland Pago, when in one year four hundred thousand seventy-three souls were brought to God in the United State; 1 can understand very easily how there should be joy in Heaven over five hundred thousand souls converted iu 1857, in this country; but mark you, my test announces there is joy in Heaven among the angels of God over one, just 6ne sinner, that repenteth. Some cathedrals have one tower; some cathedrals have two, three, four towers. Did you ever hoar them all ring at once? I am told that the bell in the cathedral of St Paul, rings only on rare occasions, for instance, at the death or birth of a king. Have you seen a cathedral with four towers? and have you heard them all strike into one great chime of gladness. Here is a man who is moral. He is an example to a great many professors of religion in some things; he never did a mean thing in his life; he pays all his debts, and is a good citizen and a good neighbor, but he says he is not a Christian. Some day the Holy Spirit^comes into his heart, and he sees that he can not depend upon his morality for salvation He says: “O, Lord God, I have been depending upon my good works; I find I am a sinner, and I want Thy salvation. Lord, for Jesus’ sake, have mercy on me!” And God pardons him, and immediately one of the towers of Heaven strikes a silvery chime, for there ore'' four towers in the heavenly temple. Here is a man who is ban; he knows he is bad, and everybody else knows he is bad, but he is not an outcast; far

say:' sinnar all the and ring. ” among the that reyon, I think, that it is possible for happiness of Heaven, tjiat souls before the are as happy as they cab be. 1 it. Look at that mother before the throne of God. When she died she left her son in this world a vagabond. Thai, son repented his iniquities and came to God. The report of that salvatic n has reached Heaven. Do yon tell lie that mother before the throne of God has not her Joy richly augmented?' There is many a man in this house to-day who could go out with a torch and kindle a new bonfire of victory on the hills of Heaven. If you would this day repent and come to God the news of your salvation would reach Heaven, and then, hark! to the shou t of the ransomed. Your little child went away from you Into tho good land. While she was heiel'vjon brought her all kinds of beautifuixPresents. Sometimes you came homeTtinightfall with your pockets fall of gifts'for her, and no sooner did you put youf-night-key into the latch than she began at yon, saying: “Father what have you brought me?” She is now before the throne of God. Can you bring her a gift to-day? You may. Coming to Christ, and repenting of sin, the tidings will go up to the throne of God, and your child will hear of lb O, what a gift for her soul today! She will skip with new gladness on the everlasting hills when she heat's of it. I was at Sharpsburg during the war, and one day I saw a sergeant dash pask on a lathered horse, the bjood dripping from tho spurs. I said: “That sergeant must be going on a very important message; be must be carrying a very important message Tor be wouldn’t ride like that. Here are two angels of God flitting through the house, flitting toward the throne on quick dispatch. What is the news? Carrying up the story of souls repentant and forgiven, carrying the news to your kindred who are forever saved. O, “there is Joy in Heaven among the angels of God over one sinnor that repen tetb.” And suppose this whole audience should turn to the Lord? Heaven would bo filled with doxologies. O, Heaven, beat with all thy hammers, that the rock may break. O, Heaven, strike with all thy gleaming swords, that our souls may be free. ' 1 was reading of a great king who, after gaining a groat victory, said to his army: “No, no shouting; let everything bo in quiet; no shouting.” .But if this hour your soul should come to God, nothing could stop the shouting of the armies ot God before tlio throne; rr “there is joy in Heaven among the gels of God over one sinnor that repenteth.” In somo families they keep a vacant chair and a vacant plate for the departed.; but if in somo of your households you kept a vacant chair and a vacant plate for those who have gone away from yon into the next world, the vacant chairs and the'vacant plates would outnumber those which are occupied. 1 once said to you there are no vacant chairs in Heaven; but I recall that Bight beside* your loved one in that good land there is a vacant chair, not made Vacant by death, for death never enters there; it is a chair vacant for you. Will you take it? My subject also impresses me with the idea that Heaven and earth are in close sympathy. People talk of Heaven as though it were a great way off. They say it is hundreds of thousands of miles before you reaeh the first star, end then yon go hundreds of thousands of miles before yon go to the second star, and then it is millions of miles

ueiore you reacn neaven. iney say Heaven is the center of the universe, and wo are on the ‘rim*of the univere. That is not the idea of my text. I think the heart of Heaven beats very close to our world. lYe measure distances by the time taken to traverse those distances. It used to be a long distance to San Francisco. Many weeks and months were passed before you could reach that city. Non’ it is six dr seven days. It used to bo six weeks before yon could voyage to Liverpool. Now you can go that distance in six or seven days. And so I measure the distance between earth and Heaven, and I find it is only a flash. It is one instant here and another instant there. It is very near to-day. Do you not feel the breath of Heaven on your face? Christ soys in one place5 it is not twenty-four hours’ distance, when He says to the penitent thief: “This day, this day, thou shalt be with Me in Paradise.” It is not a day, it is not an hour, it is not a minute. It is not a second. Oh, how near Heaved' is to earth. By oceanic cable you send a message. As it is expensive to send a message you compress a great deal of meaning in a few words. Sometimes in two wbrds you can put a vast meaning. And it seems to me that the angels of God who carry news from earth to Heaven, need to take up this hour, in regard to your soul, only two words in order to kindle with gladness all the redeemed before the throne; only two words: “Father saved,” "mother saved,” “son saved,” “daughter saved.” And., “there is joy in Heaven among the angels of God over one sinner that repen tetb.” My subject also impresses me with the fact that the salvation of the soul is of vast importance. If you should make two hundred thousand dollars a year, d«*you suppose that new* would be carried to Heaven? It would not be of enough importance or significance to be carried heavenward. If at the next quadrennial election you are made president of the United States, do you suppose that news would be carried to Heaven? Do you suppose that the hews revolution in France, or Spain, be carried to Heaven? are not of enough iinone item that is vation be

the .. t rolling and many saved. I sup- . wrote home they wrote b congratulation of their rescue, he angels of God look down, and ey see-men driving on the edge of precipices of ruin and danger, by wild, leaping, foaming and ungovernable perils in this life, and if any shall escape before they capsise do you not suppose the angels nice, crying: “Good! Good! from sin, saved from death, saved from hell, saved forever?” The supreme court of the United States does not adjourn for anything trifling. It must be the death of a cabinet minister or the death of a president, or some matter of very great moment. When I find all Heaven adjourning its other joys for this one joy, I make np my mind it is of very great importance if Heaven can afford to adjourn all other festivities to celebrate this one triumph. 1)0 yon wonder that so many of these -Christian people have toiled night and day in this work of sonl-saving if it is of such vast importance? Do yon wonder thdt Nettleton and Finley, and Bishop Asbury, and John Wesley, and George Whitefield, and Paul, and angels, and Christ, and God, stripped themselves for the work? Around that one soul circles U19 mist, the fire, the darkness, the joy, the anthem, the walling, the hallelujah and the woo of God’s universe. If the soul is saved then lips come to trumpet, and fingers to harp, and hammer' bell, and “there is joy among i..,e angels of God over that one srul forgiven.” For such a sonl I pica?.. Having found in my own experience that this religion is a comfort and a joy, I stand ,»ere to commend it to yon. In the di'ys of my infancy I was carried by Christian parents to the house of God and consecrated in baptism to the Father, and the Son, and. the Holy Ghost; but that did not savtf me. In after time I was taught to kneeljSt the Christian family altar with father and mother and brothers and sisters—the most of them now m glory; bat that did not save me. In after time I read Doddridge’s “Rise and Progress” and Baxter’s “Call to the Unconverted,” and all the religious books around roy father's household; but that did not save me. *> But one day the voice of Christ came into my heart saying: “Repent, repent; believe, believe;" and I accepted the offer of mercy, and though no doubt there was more joy in Heaven over the conversion of other souls, because of their far-reaehing influence, I verily believe when I gave my heart to God there were some spirits in Heaven the gladder for the deed. “There is joy in Heaven among the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.” Turn this day to the Lord who bought you, Let this whole audience surrender themselves to Jesus Christ. If for ten, twenty, fifty years, vov have not prayed, begin now to pray “Ob,” you say, “I can’t pray.” Can you not say: “God, be merciful to me, a sinner?” “No,” yon say, “I can’t say that." Then can you not look to the throne of mercy? “No,” you say, “I can’t look up.” Can yon not then give some signal, like that which was given by the lad in the hospital? He was sick, and suffer ing, and dying, and wanted speedily to

go away iroiu all sultering ami pain: and he snid to his comrades in the hospital: “It is strange to me that Jesus doesn't see me when He goes through hero nights and takes others to Iiimsel f. He goes through here and Ho doesn’t see me. I must be asleep and He doesn’t know I want to go." “Now, I’ll tell you how I’ll arrange it. I'll go to sleep with my hand up, and then when Jesus comes through the hospital by night He will sec iny hand lifted and He will know by that I want to go with Him.” So it was done: for that night Jesus went through the hospital and took the suffering lad, and the nest morning the nurse, passing through the wards of the hospital, saw a dead hand lifted, bra'ced on one side against the pillow and the left hand holdiug the elbow of , the right arm. Jesus, had seen the signal and answered it 0! sick soul, wounded soul, dying soul, canst thou give some signal? Wilt thou not lift one hand or one prayer? God grant that this day there may bo joy in Heaven among the angels of God over your soul,forgiveu! True Courtesy. True courtesy is the “bcauty. of the heart” How well it is that no class has a monopoly in this kind of beauty? that while favorable circumstances undoubtedly do render good manners more common among persons moving iu higher rather than lower spheres, there shovild, nevertheless, be no positive hindrance to the poorest classes having good manners. Here is an illustration o£-trae politeness exhibited by both classes of society. One day, in hastily turning the corner of a crooked street in London, a young lady ran with great force against a ragged little begger fey and almost knocked him dowm Stopping as soon as she could, she turned around and said very kindly to the boy: “1 beg your pardon, my little fellow. I am very sorry that I ran against you.” The poor boy was astonished, fce looked at her a moment in surprise, and then, taking off about three-quarters of a cap, he made a low bow and said, while a broad, pleasant smile spread itself all over his face: “You can hev my parding, miss, and welcome; and the next time you run agin me you can knock me clean down and I won’t say a word.” After the lady had passed on he turned to his companion and said: “1 say, Jim, it’s the first time I ever had anybody ask my parding, and it kina o’ took me off my feet.’’—Religious Telescope.

THE MONOPOLY TAH FP. Cmtreuman W. L. Wilson, of West IV •tote, Show* How tho People Are Tnsiti to Protect Monopoly "Infant*"-Uia 1a V ter to the 8*. tout* *H»P«‘’UA The American Economist is the orgaS of the American Protnctive Tarili league. More perhaps than any othei journal, it may be taken as the official mouthpiece of the protected industries, and any concessions it makes are al ways made with ample reservations tt those industries It is publishing jusl now what it calls “Short Tariff Ser mons,” evidently designed for the use of the country newspapers as an elementary statement of the case for protection. It defines protection as “that system of tariff legislation which levies duties on imports, such as are adequate to e» tablish and maintain industries, insuring high wages to laborers,’’ This definition clearly implies,that a protected industry is a burden Upon the other and self-supporting industries of the country, which are taxed to “establish find maintain” it As it is allowed to determine and dictate the amount cf taxes it will require for its establishment uni maintenance, it is very desirable that we should ascertain from unquestionable authority how far a protected industry is justified in pushing its exactions. We are glad therefore that the Economist lays down the principle that “the amount of protection is determined by the difference between the cost of production at home and abroad,” and that it make< it plain by the following illustration: “If because,of high wages here it costs $30 to produce a ton of steel rails, and because of low wages it costs only $20 in England, the steel rails need & duty of $10 a ton to keep our mills open and to protect our own workmen from low wages” This is all explicit enough, and it is gratifying to find that the framers of the McKinley bill a cepted this same principle unreservedly and professed to have made it the rule by which they adjusted tho duties o' that bill. “We have recommended no duty," said they in reporting the hill, “above the point of difference between the normal cost of production here, including labor, and the cost of like production in the couutries which seek our markets.” Here, then, in sermon and in official report we have a statement of the full demand of protection. It calls for its own pound of flesh. Whatever it takes more than this pound is mere torture of its victims In other words, a duty that covers the difference qf the cost of production at home and abroad is protection. Whatever duty is less than this, they say, is not protection. And whatever is more than thi , we may justly claim, is sheer bounty and tribute to monoply. Now let us see how they keep ftffth with the people, whan they arrange dhties for the protection of their favorites Heretofore both lawmakers and people have been dependent chiefly on snch statements as interested parties chose to make before congressional committees or elsewhere as to tlvcost of production and tho comparative scale of wages here and in other countries.

Fortunately for us now the department of labor is carefully aud methodically investigating these questions in some of our most important industries, particularly in the iron and steel and textile industries Its sixth annual report is devoted to an examination ol the cost of producing iron and steel in this country and abroad. Let us first take pig iron. Taking the average of twenty-six blast furnaces in the northern district of the United Spates, the cost of all element' of production of run-of-the-mine pig was SIS. 94 per ton; in twenty-four furnaces in the southern district it was 810.75 per ton. In a tvpical furnace on the continent of Europe it was $1103 per ton. The cost of producing pig iron in the south is thus somewhat less than upon the continent, and prob ably about t ic same as in England. In the north it is about $3 per to» greater, yet the McKin’ev bill fixes th« duty at $6.72 per ton. which, if we add $3 for ocean freight, insures a protection to the American producer of $8.72 per ton on his product; whereas, if lie produces in the south he n- eds no protection whatever, and if he produces in the north he needs at most but $8 j ei ton, according to the rule laid down 'sy both the Economist and Maj. McK.itley and his colleagues. Let us also take the Economist's ow 2 illustration—steel rails. The reporl finds that the actual post of making standard steel rails in' seyeral of the largest establishments in the United States “is, ancLhas been for some time, within a fevy-'confs per ton at the works, ” and that in Great Britain it is a "sum not varying much from $18 per ton.” Ade^ing-ly, making all allowance?, ifsaysettle “difference between the lowest costy of British steel rails ol sixty pounds to the yard an l the lowest cost of the same grade of rails in the United States is in the vicinity of $5 per ton. ” Now, the McKinley bill, professing to recommend no duty above the difference in cost of production here and in fhe countries that seek our market, puts a duty of $13.44 per ton on steel rails, insuring, if we add ocean freight, a protection to American makers of $15.44 per ton on a product that costa but $4 or $5 per ton more to make here than in Great Britain. It is well known that a combination exists among the less than a dozen rail mills in the country hr which they keep up and dictate prices to purchasers. That combination is created and shielded by this protection, which is more than three times greater than the amount declared necessary by The Economist, and more than three times greater than the amount professedly given by the McKinley hill. The $10 per ton in excess of the adequate prjtective duty as defined by the protectionists is the safe and sure margin within which they,; may and dc establish the prices at which they will sell their rails. These are not exceptional cases. They are bnt fair and average illustrations of the existing tariff law, and stamp that law not a protective but a monopoly tariff. ihe Trust's Meeting. The Eastern Door, Sash & Blind Manufacturers’ association, or in other words the door, sash and blind trust, has issued a call for a meeting to be held in Binghamton, N. Y., on Fel? ruary 18. It is confidently expected, says the high tariff Buffalo Express, that an advance in prices will be made at this meeting. This trust does its work in a qniet way. It fixes prices and divides territory among its members, and in this way kills competition. As long as we have a tariff on lumber, so long will this trust assert that every advance in prices which it makes is due to higher prices for Its raw material. The remedy is to be found in free lumber and lower

The thing is to know what to do when you have taken cold. When you feel chilly it is a sign that the work which the skin has been doing ir. removing the waste water and carbonic acid from the blood has been suddenly checked and the iittie pores are dosed and the system has received a shock. The work is then thrown upon the kidneys and lungs. The blood vessels In these organs become congested and as those of the lungs and throat become filled with blood a cough sets in to try and expel them. Now to take an opiate Is simply to paralyze the muscles so that you cannot cough, but that does-not relleve the lungs or the. kidneys. REID’S GERMAN COUGH AND KIDNEY CURE checks the cough by stimulating the lungs, inciting the kidneys to action, and enabling the skin to resume its former condition. In this1 way the cough is cured and cured permanently. Get this great remedy of any dealer.
