THE HUMAN FACE. l>r. Talmagre Brings Words of Cheer to Homely People. -x5-— With God in Their Lire* and Love in Their Hearts the Homeliest Face May Become Transfigured aud.A t tractive. t..

As the subject of a recent sermon in "the Brooklyn tabernacle Rev. T. DeWitt Ta linage took “The Human Face.” basin? his words on the text: A man's wisdom maketh his lace to shine and the boldness of his face shall be changed. —Beclesiates. viii., 1. "Thus a little change in our English 'translation brings out the better meaning of the text, which sets forth that the character of the face is decided by the character of the soul. The main features of our countenance were decided by tlieAlmighty, and we can not change them; but under God we decide whether we shall have countenances benignant or baleful, sour or ^weet, wrathful or genial, benevolent or mean, honest or scoundrelly, impudent or n^lest, courageous or cowardly, frank or sneaking. In all the “works of- God there is nothing more “wonderful than the human countenance. Though the longest face is less than twelve inches from the hair line of the forehead to the bottom of the chin, and the broadest face is less than eight inches from cheek bone to cheek bone, yet in that small compass God hath wrought such differences that the one billion and six hundred million of the human race may be distinguished from each other by their facial appearance. The * face is ordinarily the index of character. It is the throne of emotions. It is ithe battlefield of the passions. It is the catalogue -of character. It is the map of the mind. - Now, what practical religious and -eternal use would I make of this subject? 1 am going to show that while •we are not responsible for features, the Lord Almighty having decided what they shall be pre-natally, as the Psalmist declares when He writes: “In Thy book all my members were written which in continuance were fashioned when as yet there was none of ‘them,” yet the character which under God we form will chisel the f^ce most mightly. Every man would like to have been made in appearance an Alcibiades, and every woman would like to have been made a Josephine. We all want to be agreeable. Our usefulness depends so much upon it that I consider it important and Christian for every man and woman to be as agreeable as possible. The slouch, the sloven, the man who does not care how- lie looks, all such people lack equipment for usefulness. A minister who has to throw a quid of tobacco out of his mouth before he begins to preach, or Christians with beard untrimmed, making them to look like wild beasts come out of the liar, yea, unkempt, uncombed, unwashed, disagreeable men or women, are a hindrance to religion more than a -recommendation. Now, my text ^uirgests how we may, Independent of -features, make ourselves agreeable: “A man’s wisdom maketh his face to shinq and the sourness of his face shall be sweetened.” What I say may come too late for many. Their countenance may by long years of hardness have been frozen into stolidity; or by;long years of cruel behavior they may have Herod i zed all the machinery of expression; or by long years of averice they may have been Shylocked until their face is as hard as the piecious metal they are hoarding; but I am in time to help multitudes if the Lord will. That it is possible to overcome disadvantages of physiognomy was in this country mightily illustrated v by one whose life recently closed after having served in the presidential cabinet at Washington. By accident of fh-e ip childhood his face had been more piteously scarred than any human visage that I ever saw. By hard study he rose from being a poor boy to the very height of the legal profession, and when au attorney general for the United States was needed he entered the presidential cabinet. What a triumph over destroyed human counteance! I do not wbnder that when an opposing attorney in a Philadelphia -court-room cruelly referred to this personal disfigurement, Benjamin F. Brewster replied in these words: “When I was a babe I was a beautiful blue-eyed child. I know this, because my dear, dead mother told me so; but I was one day playing with my sister when her clothes took fire and I ran tc her relief and saved her; but in doing so my clothes took wfire, and the fire was not put out until my face was as black as the heart of ■ the scoundrel who has just now referred to my disfigurement.” Heroism •conquering disabilities! The scholarly, “regular features are not necessary for making powerful impressions—witness Paul. who photographs himself as in “bodily presence weak;” and George White field, whose eyes were struck with strabismus; and Alexander H. Stephens,Jivho sat with pale and sick face in an invalid’s chair while he “thrilled the American eongress with ;l»is eloquence; thousands of invalid preachers, and Sabbath-school teachers uud Christian workers. Aye, the most glorious being the world ever saw was foreseen by Isaiah, who described llis face, bruised, and gashed, and scarified, and said of Him: “His -visage was so marred more than any ■ man. ” Go you see that the loveliest face ia the universe was a scarred

race. And now I cm going to tell yon of some of the chisels that work for the disfiguration or irradiation of the human •countenance. One of the sharpost and most destructive of those chisels of the countenance in Cynicism. That sours the disposition and then sours the face. It gives a contemptuous curl to <tlic lip. It draws now the corners of •the mouth and inflates the nostril as <*ritU a malodor. What David said in dtaste they say In their deliberation:

“All men are liars;” everythin? is going to ruin. All men and women are bad, or groin? to be. Society and the church are on the down grade. Tell them of an act of benevolence, and they say he gave that to advertise himself. They do not like the present fashion of hats for women, or of coats for men. They are opposed to the administration, municipal, and State, and national. Somehow, food does not taste as it used to, and they wonder why there are no poets, or orators, or preachers, as when they were boys. Even Solomon, one of the wisest, and at one time one of the worst, of men.

calls into the pessimistic mood, and cries out in the twenty-first chapter of Proverbs: “Who can find a virtuous woman?” If he had behaved himself better and kept in good associations he would not have written thatinterroga- ; tion point implying the scarcity of good womanhood. Cynicism, if a habit, as | it is with tens of thousands of people, writes itself all over the features; hence so many sour visages all up and down | the church and the world. One good way to make the world worse is to say | it is worse. Let a depressed and foreboding opinion of everything take possession of yon fpr twenty years and you will be a sight to behold. It is the chastisement of God that when a man allows his heart to be: cursed wftk cynicism his face becomes gloomed and scowled and lachrymosed and blasted with the same midnight. Here is another mighty chisel for thfe countenance, and you may call it revenge, or hate, or malevolence. This spirit having taken possession of the heart in encamps seven devils under the eyebrows. It puts cruelty into the compression of the lips. You can tell from the man’s look that he is pursuing some one and trying to get even with him. There are suggestions of Nero, and Robespierre, and Diocletian, and thumbscrews, and racks all up and down the features. Infernal artists with murderers’ daggers have been cutting away at that visage. The revengeful heart has built its. perdition in the revengeful countenance. Disfiguration of diabolic passion! But here comes another chisel to shape the countenance, and it is kindness. There came a moving day, and into her soul moved the whole family of Christian graces, with all the children and grandchildren, and the command comes from the heavens that that woman's face shall be made to correspond with her superb soul. Her entire face from ear to ear becomes the canvas on whiqli ajl the best artists in Heaven begin to put their finest strokes, and on the small compass of that face are put pictures of sunrise over the sea, and angels of mercy going up and down ladders all a-ilash, and mountains of transfiguration and noon-day in Heaven. Kindness! It is the most magnificent sculptor that ever touched human countenance. No one could wonder at the unusual geniality i» the face of William Windom, secretary of the treasury' of the United States after seeing him at the New York banquet just before he dropped dead, turning his wine-glass upside downT^saying: “I may by doing this offend some, but by no^ do it, I might damage many.” He kind to your friends. Be kind to your enemies. Be kind to the young. Be kind to the old. Be kind to your rulers. Be kind to your servants. Be kind to your superiors. Iks kind to y'our inferiors. Be kind to your horse. Be kind to your cat. Morning, noon and night be kind, and the effects of it will be written in the language of your face. That is the Gospel of physiognomy. / ,4 Bayonne merchant was in the south of Europe for his health, and sitting on the terrace one morning in his invalidism, he saw a rider flung from a horse into the river, and without thinking of his own weakness, the merchant flung off his invalid’s gown and leaped into the stream and swam to the drowning man, and clutching him as he was about to go down the last time, bore him in safely to the bank, when glancing into the face of the rescued man, he cried: “My God! I have saved my own son!” All kindness comes back to us in one way or another if not in any other way then in your own face. Kindness! Show it to others, for the time may come when you will need it yourself. People laughed at the lion because he spared the mouse that ran over him, when by one motion of his paw the monster could have crushed the insignificant disturber. But it was well that the lion had mercy on the mouse, for one day the lion was caught in a trap and roared fearfully because he was held fast by ropes. Then the mouse gnawed off the ropes and let the lion go free. You may consider yourself a lion, but you can not afford to despise a mouse. When Abraham Lincoln pardoned

a young soicuer • at me request of his mother, the mother went down the stairs of the White House saying: “They have lied about the president's being homely; he is the handsomest man I ever saw.” All over that president’s rugged face was written the kindness which he so well illustrated when he said* “Some of our generals complain that I impair discipline add subordination in the army by pardons and respites, but it makes me rested after a hard day’s work if I can find some good excuse for saving a man's life, and I go to bed happier as I think how joyous the signing of my name will make him and his family.” Kindness! It makes the face to shine while life lasts, and after adeath puts a summer sunset between the still lips and the smoothed hair that makes me say sometimes at obsequies: “She seems too beautiful to bury.” But here comes another chisel, and its name is hypocrisy. Christ with one terrific stroke in His Sermon on the Mount described this character: “When ye fast be not as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance; - for they disfigure their faces that they may appear unto men to fast.” Hypocrisy having taken possession of the soul it immediately appears in the countenance. Hypocrites are always solemn. The/ car

ry several country gravey »rds in their faces. They are tearf il when there is nothin# to cry about, and in their prayers they catch for their breath, and have sueh general lolefnlness that they disgust young people with religion. Ween had one of them in one of my churches. When he exhorted ■ he always deplored the low statu of rei ligion in other people, and when he prayed it was an attack of hysteria, | and he went into a paroxysm : of ohs and ahs that seemed to I demand resuscitation. He went

on m this way until we had to expel him from church for stealing the property entrusted t< him as administrator, and for other vices that I will not mention, and he "/rote me several letters not at all complimentary from the west saying that he was daily praying for my everlasting destruction. A man can not have hypocrisy in his heart without somehow showing it in his face. All, intelligent people who witness it know it is nothing but a dramatization. Here comes another chisel, and that belongs to the old-fashioned religion. It first takes possession of the whole soul, washing out sins by the blood of the Lamb and starting Heaven right there and then. This done deep down in the heart, religion says: j “Now let me go up to the windows and front gate of the face and set up some signal that I have taken possession of this castle. 1 will celebrate the victory by an illumination that no one can mistake. I have^ made this man happy, and now I will make him look happy. , I will draw the corner of his mouth as far up as they were drawn down. I will take the contemptuous curl away from the lip and nostril. I will make his eyes flash and his cheeks glow at every mention of Christ and Heaven. I will make even the wrinkles of his face look like furrows plowed for the harvests of joy. I will make what we call the “crow’s feet around his temples suggestive that the dove of peace has hpen alighting there.” There may be signs of trouble on that face, but trouble sanctified. There may be scars of battle on that face, but they will be scars of campaigns won. lint I can tell yon of a more sympathetic and more tender and more loving face than any of the faces I Jiave mentioned. “No, you can not,” Says some one. I can and I will. It is the face of Jesus Christ as He was on earth and is know in Heaven. When preparing my “Life of Christ,” entitled “From Manager/to Throne,” I ransacked the art galleries and portfolios of the world to find a picture of our Saviour’s face that might be most expressive, and I saw it as Francesco Francia painted it in the sixteenth century, and as the emerald intaglio of the sixth century presented it, and as a fresco in the catacombs near Rome preserved it,and as Leonardo Da Vinci showed it in “The Last Supper,” and I looked in the Louvre and the Luxembourg and the Vatican and the Dresden and the Berlin and Neapolitan and London galleries for the most inspiring face of Christ, and many of the presentations were wonderful for pathos and majesty, and power. and execution, but although I selected that bj* Ary Scheffer as in some respects the most expressive, I felt, as we all feel, that our Christ has never yet been presented | either in sculpture or painting, and i that we will have to wait until we rise to the upper palace, where we shall see Him as He is. What a gentle face it' must have been to induce the baizes to struggle out of their mothers’ arms into His arms! What an expressive face it must have been when one reproving -look of it threw stalwart Peter into a fit of tears! What a pleading face it must have been to lead the Psalmist in prayer to say of it: ‘ Look upon the face of Thine anointed.” What a sympathetic face it must have been to entourage the sick woman, who was beyond any help of the doctors, to touch the hem ot His garment! What a suffering face it must have been when suspended on the perpendicular and horizontal pieces of the wood of martyrdom, and His antagonists slapped the pallid1 cheek with their rough hands, and befouled it with the saliva of their blasphemous lips! ^Vhat a tremendous face it must have been to lead St. John to describe it in the coming judgment as scattering the universe when He says: “From whose face the earth and the Heaven fled away.” Oh, Christ! Once the Nazarene, but now the Celestial! Once of cross, but now of throne! Once crowned with stinging bramble, but now coroneted with the jewels of ransomed empires! Turn on us Thy pardoning face and

forgive us; Thy sympathetic face and console us; Thy suffering face and have Thy atonement avail for us; Thy omnipotent face and rescue us. Oh, what agface! So scarred, so lacerated, so, resplendent, so overwhelmingly glorious that the seraphim put wing to wing, and with their combined pinions keep off some of the luster thatis too mighty even for eyes cherubic or archangelic; and yet this morning turning upon us with a sheathed splendor like that with which He appeared when He said to the mothers bashful about presenting their children: ‘‘Suffer them to come;” and to the poor waif of the street. “Neither do I condemn thee;” and to the eyes of *he blind beggar of the wayside: “Tie opened.” I think my brother John, the returned foreign missionary, dying summer before last' at Bound Brook, caught a glimpse of that face of Christ when in his dying hour my brother said: “I shall be satisfied when I wake in Hi$ likeness.” And now unto Him that loves us, and washed us from our sins in His own blood, and hath made us kings * and priests-unto God and His Father, to Him be glory and dominion, forever and ever, Amen and Amen! Amen and Amen! —Are you willing tq take your weights and measures to the jut gmeut with you? —If you would lift me up you must be on higher ground.—Emerson

REFORM CLUB MEETINGS WnrklBtnftD In Many Protected Industrie*. When Not Coerced br the Maoafaetnrer*. Pass Kesolutioas Favoring the Wilson BI1L The Reform dub deserves |mt credit for t he work it is now doing’ in localities represented or misrepresented by democrats who are trying to de- ! feat the Wilson bilL Several big mass meetings have been held'to test the sentiment of the workingmen who are reported to have changed their minds since they voted for tariff reform in 1S92. In each case resolutions have been passed in favor of the Wilson bill or a more radical tariff reform

measure. • The first meeting' was held in Paterson, N. J., on January 11. This is the center of the silk industry and the tide ag-ainst the Wilson bill was supposed to be running so high that the majority of the leading democrats were afraid to make any attempt to stem it Over 2,000, the most of whom were mill hands, remained in a theater for nearly three hours listening to Mr. Thomas G. Shearman, and lustily cheering many of his best points and sharp answers to questions. At the end of the meeting, and after very strong tariff reform resolutions had been passed, several of the local democrats, who had remained “behind-the scenes,” plucked up courage and, stepping to the front of the stage, congratulated the speaker and expressed great satisfaction at the success of the meeting. At Amsterdam, N. Y., the big carpet and other manufacturers had terrorized the citizens by closing mills and reduc* ing wages. The manufacturers had petitions circulated through the factories condemning the Wilson bill. As might be expected under the circumstances the petitions were quite generally signed by employes. A mass meeting was held and in the presence of the wealthy manufacturers the mill workers allowed resolutions against the Wilson bill to be passed. But one democrat had the audacity to ask a few questions |rom the audience. He was regarded as an intruder and treated accordingly. Apparently tariff reform was in the dumps at Amsterdam. The Reform club desired to know if thp workingmen had deserted tariff reform. It arranged for a mass meeting in the largest* hall in the city and paid for this hall 66 per cent more than was required of the great manufacturer who footed the rent bill for the previous meeting. No local financial assistance whatever was received. The hall was packed. It was clear, when Mr. Shearman began to speak, that some in the audience were attempting to disturb the meeting; but soon he had interested. all, and convinced most of his hearers that they should remain steadfast to tariff reform. After nearly three hours of discussion resolutions in favor of the Wilson bill were passed almost unanimously. The next great meeting was held at Troy, N. Y., the center of the collar, cuff and shirt indurstry in this country. Over 50,000 signatures were alleged to have been obtained, in this city of 70,000, to a petition in favor of McKinley duties on collars, cuffs and shirts. This petition was presented to congress by Troy’s democratic representative, Mr. Haines, who made a long speech against the Wilson bill. Senator Murphy, of New York, is a citizen of Troy. He also has declared against the proposed reductions of duties on collars, cuffs and shirts. Every paper in Troy is working with Murphy, Haines and the manufacturers. When Mr. W. B. Estell went to Troy to arrange for a meeting he found a strong undercurrent in favor of the Wilson bill, but almost no one who was will- < ing to risk his business interests or his job by helping to get up a meeting. Even when an immense audience had gathered in Harmony hall, on January 22, no citizen of Troy could be found who was willing to preside at the meetr ing, and the speaker—again Mr. Shearman—had to nominate himself as chairman. He, however, had control of his audience and as: usual soon had it laughing and cheering. He called attention to the fact that the manufacturers of shirts, collars and cuffs had reduced wages under McKinley duties as well as under those of 18S8. He showed that the duties of the Wilson bill left about as much protection as the manufacturers had from 18S3 to 1890 and that there was no necessity whatever for reducing wages on account of tariff reductions. If the workers wanted to make higher wages possible, he said, they should petition for lower duties on linen and cotton. This would not only give manufacturers cheaper raw materials but it would enable them to reduce prices of collars, cuffs and shirts; reduced prices would increase consumption and make more work at higher wages Mr. Shearman then turned his searchlight upon the claims and statements of the manufacturers as presented to the ways and means committee. The manufacturers had made affidavits that the average wages of working girls in Troy were fully $3 a week. At the same time they had I produced a statement which showed that the average wages were only $5.23. From another statement it was shown that the manpfacturers were making over 50 per cent profit on their capital. By a majority of three to one the audience favored resolutions indorsing the Wilson bilL It is gratifying to know that the mill operatives even in the most highly protected industries are in favor of tariff reform, and it is fortunate for the country that there is an organization ready and willing to give the workingmen an opportunity to express themselves when the eyes of the boss are not upon them.

WILSON ON IRON. With the Cheapest Iron Ore in the World We Can JSoon Supply All Nations with Iron and Steel Goods. Chairman Wilson, in his opening speech, thus outlined our present status and our future possibilities as regards iron and steel: “If there is any one great industry to which we could throw down to-day the tariff laws a*d defy the world and march forth to acquire new fields, it is the great iron and steel industry of this country. The consumption of

iron and steel is a test of civilt ration. The consumption of iron and ateel is a test of the material progress of any country, anc all the other countries oi the world, put together hare not.kept up to the progress of the United States in the development of these great industries Lui the last few years. , “The whole worlc.’s production of pig" iron in 1878 was but; little over 14,000,000 tons. The United States alone produced in 1892 over 9,000,000 tons In 1878 outentire product was a little over 2,000,000 tons; our entire product in recent years has reached, if it has not gone be pond. 10,300.000 tons. That has been dne to tho fact that here in this great undeveloped country of ours, where, with the little population that to-day inhabits it, we are but running to and fro to find out what resources it 'possesses, we have found all along the Appalachian range of the south, all around the great lakes of the north, deposits of iron ore so rich, so easily worked, so accessible to other material, that we have reached the point where we can produce iron ore, in Minnesota, in Michigan, in Wisconsin, in Alabama, and perhaps at other points in this country, cheaper than it can he produced anywhere else in all the world? 7

“W ith the rich deposits upon the surface, close to the seaboard in many places, within a few. miles of coal in other places, with the improved methods of mining, with electricity, with the steam shovel, with all the inventions that always accompany the march of a great developing American industry, iron ore could be loaded upon the boats on the lakes dr upon the cars in other parts, of the country at less than one-half the cost of getting it to the pit's mouth in most of the countries where heretofore we have looked for competition. “So true is it, then, that the tax upon iron ore is no longer needed to protect us who have the largest product of all the world, so true is it that any little stream of foreign ore that might “fcome into this country from Cuba or elsewhere would only increase the use Of our domestic ores in combination with it; so true is it all that, but for the timidity and selfishness that come from thirty years of leaning or supposed leaning upon a tariff for protection, the great ironmasters of this country might to-day boldly say: ‘Throw down the wall. We will not only supply this country, but we will go out and build up other great countries in this respect.’ “It is true to-day that ‘200,000,000 of the people of this earth use nearly all its iron. The people of the Uhited States, France, Belgium, Germany and England use 90 per cent, of all the iron and steel that are used in the world, and the other 1,200,000,000 people use only the remaining 10 per"cent. “We have reached what has been called the steel age. We are using steel not only in building our great rail-* way system, not only in building bur great ships for transportation on the lakes and on the sea, bnt as the common structural material on our dwelling houses, the bridge material on our country roads, and almost every American village of 5,000 inhabitants to-day has its street railway and has become a consumer of iron and of steeL “And down in South America, off in Asia, off in Russia, off in Africa, among all the other 1,200,000,000 of the world, the coming of the iron age is at hand. Out of our boundless supply, out of the Appalachian range, out of the range at Birmingham, and in Virginia, and ip West Virginia we can get the material by which we can go out into all the countries of the world and build their railroads, build their cities, build their ships, and contribute to their elevation and their prosperity and their power to consume, which shall make an indefinite market for all the fabrics of iron and steel and other things that we make in this country. “Five years ago a great ironmaster-— perhaps the best known, certainly the most widely published ironmaster in the United States, Andrew Carnegieused this language, speaking of his trip through California: , “ ‘With; such grapes and climate it must surely be a question of only a few years before the true American wine makes its appearance, and then what shall we ha fro to import? Silks and linens are going, watches and jewelry have already gone, and in this connection I thick I may venture to say good-bye to foreign iron and steeL’ “There has been no more unrighteous und no more striking exhibition of monopoly in this country than that of the makers of steel rails. Under the ^tariff system which gave them first $28 a ton, then $17 a ton, and now $13.44 a ton, the great rolling mills combine to keep up the prices to the American people far beyond the cost of production, at a point just a little lower than that at which foreign rails could be imported with the tariff added. “And now, when we have reached the point where it seems possible that we can make steel rails as cheaply as they caa be made anywhere else in the world, they are raising their outcry of denunciation against a tariff that proposes to give theca still 25 per cent, of protection.” Mr. Johnson, of Ohio—Will you tell us why you still give them 25 per ceiit. of protection? Mr. Wilson replied that the only answer he could give is that it could not very well be reduced lower according to the general scheme of taxation on iron and steel industries of txje j country. ___

Rations Dividends. The earnings of thfc Fall River mills for 1893 show an average return of 7.9 per cent, upon the share capital. This is not only a good showing absolutely, but is better than the return for two of the three previous years. In 1890 these mills paid an average of 7.55 per cent., in 1891 an average of 4.9 per cent., in 1899 an average of 11.4 per cent, and in 1893 an average of 7.9 per pent This is a remarkable Showing, after all that we have heard for months past about the ruin of the manufacturing industries.—N.
