TALMAGE’S SERMON. A Practical Sermon tor the Benefit of Young Men. Healthful Exercise and the Careful Train' ' . lux or the Intellect the Ejaentlala of haeccee—Opportunities of the Klelac Generation. ■Rev. T. DeWitt Talmay-e interested h large congregation in the Academy of music. New York city, with “Words with Yciung Men,” his discourse on that subject being delivered at the request of a party of young men of Fayette. 0. Those six young men, I suppose, represent innumerable young men who are about undertaking the battle of life, and who have more interrogation points in their minds than any printer’s case ever contained, or printer’s fingers set up. But few people who have passed fifty years of age are capable of giving advice to young men. Too many begin their council by forgetting they ever were young men themaelves. November blossoms do not understand May-time blossoms. The cast wind never did understand the south wind. Autumnal golden rod makes a poor fist at lecturing about early violets. Generally, after a man has rheumatism in his right foot, he is not competent to discuss juvenile elasticity. Not one man out of a hundred can enlist and keep the attention of the young after there is a bald spot on the cranium. 1 attended a large fneeting in Philadelphia, assembled to discuss how the Young Men’s Christian association of that city might be made more attractive for young people, wheii a man arose .and made some suggestions with such lugubrious tone of voice, and a man- • ner that seemed to deplore that everything was going to ruin, when an old friend of mine, at seventy-five years as young in feeling as anyone at twenty,

arose ana saia: "inai gooa urutuer who has just addressed you will excuse me for saying that a yoimg man would no sooner go and spend an evening among such funereal tones of voice and funereal ideas of religion which that brother seems to have adopted, than he would go and: spend the even* ing in Laurel Hill, cemetery.” And yet these young men of Ohio, and all young men, have a right to ask those who have had many opportunities of studying this world and the next world to give helpful suggestions as to what theories of life one ought to adopt, and what dangers he ought to shun. Attention, young men! First: Get your soul right. You see, that is the most valuable part of you. It is the most important room in your house. It is the parlor of your entire nature. Put the best pictures on its walls. Put the best music under its arches. It is important to have the kitchen right, and the dining room right, and the cellar right, and all the other rooms <5f your nature right; but, oh! the parlor of the soul! Be particular about the guests who enter it. Shut its doors in the faces of those who would despoil and pollute it. There are princes and kings who would like to come into it* while there are assassins who would like to come out from behind his curtains, and with silent foot attempt the desperate and murderous. Let the King come in. He is now at the door. Let me be usher to announce His arrival and introduce the King of this world, the King of all worlds, the King eternal, immortal, invisible. Make room. Stand back. Clear the way. Bow, kneel, worship the King. Have Him once* for your guest, and it does not make much difference "who comes or goe4. Would you have •|k warrantee against moral disaster and surety of a noble career? Read at least one chapter of the Bible on your knees

every day of your life. Word the next: Have your body right. “How are you?” I often say when I meet a freind of mine in Brooklyn. He is over seventy, and alert and vigorous, and very prominent in the law. His answer is: “I am living on the capital of a well-spent youth.” On the contrary, there are hundreds of thousands of good people who are suffering the results of early sins. The grtice of tjod gives one a new heart, but not a new body. David, the psalmist, had to cry out: “Remember not the sins of my youth.” Let a young man make his body a wine closet, or a rum jug, or a whisky. cask, or a barrel, and smoke poisoned cigarettes until his hand trembles, and he is black under the eyes, and his cheeks fall in, and then at some church seek and find religion; yet. all the praying he can do will not hinder the physical consequences of natural law fractured. You supmen of Ohio, and all the young men, take care of your eyes, those windows of the soul. Take care ol your ears, and listen to nothing that depraves. Take care of you? Iip6, and see that they utter no profanities. Take care of your nerves by enough sleep and avoiding unhealthy excitements, and by taking out-door exercise, whether by ball, or skate, or horseback, lawn tennis, or exhilarating bicycle, if you sit upright and do not join that throng of several hundred thousands who by the wheel are cultivat- * ing crooked backs, and cramped chests, and deformed bodies, rapidly coming down toward all-fours, and the attitude of the toasts that perish. Anything that bends body, mind or soul to the earth is unhealthy. Oh, it is a grand thing to be well, but do not depend on pharmacy and the doctors to make you well. Stay well. Read John Todd’s “Manual” and Coombs’ “Physiology,” and everything yon lay your hands on about mastication, and digestion, and assimilation. Where you find one healty man or woman you find fifty half dead. From my own experience *1 can testify that, being a disciple of the gymasiumf and many a •time just before going to the parallel tors, and punching togs, and pullies and weights, I thought Satan •was about taking possession of society j»nd the church and the world, but

after one hour of climbing and and pulling, I felt like h home, so as to be there whi millennium set in. Take run every day. I find in tha' which 1 have kept up since at e years I read the aforesaid “Manual,” more recuperation anything else. Those six men will need all possible nerve, possible eyesight, and all possible muscular development before they get through the terrific struggle of this life. i. Word the next: Take f care of your lifting ning the j stout habit, ; hteen ‘ Todd’s tan in >f Ohio and all of novundred opens news* era ted intellect Here comes the fl< el ties, ninety-nine" out of a belittling to everyone t them. Here comes a 'lepra paper, submerging good and American journalism. Here comes a whole perdition of printed abomination, dumped on the breakfast table, and tea table, and parlor table. Take at least one good newspaper, ^vith able editorial and reporters’ columns mostly occupied with helpful intelligence, announcing marriages and deaths and reformatory and religious assemblages, and charities bestowed, and the doings of good people, and giving but little place to nasty divorce cases. like co* cm. Oh, t virtue type and ou have and stories of crime, which, bras, sting those that wuch for more newspapers that in what is called great vice in nonpereil or agate! all seen the photographer’s negative. He took a. picture from it ten or twenty years ago. You aslc him now for a picture from that same negative. He opens the gkeat chest containing the black negative of 1885, or 1$75, and he reproduces the picture. Young n»en, your memory ia made up of the negatives of an immortal photography. All that you see or hear goek into your souli to make pictures for the future. Yop will have with you till the judgment day the negatives of all the bad pictures you have ever looked at, and of ia.ll the debauched scenes you have read about. Show me the newspapers you take and the books you read, and I will tell you what are your prospects for well-being in this life, and what will be your residence one million years after the star on which we now live shall have dropped out of the ponstjellation. I never travel on Sunday unless it be a case of necessity last autumn 1 city plague-struck or was mercy. ' But in ByIndia in the hundown with dreds the people - --- fearful illness. We went to the apothecary’s to get some preventive of the fever, and the place jras crowded with invalids, and he hpd no confidence in the preventive wje purchased from the Hindoos. The mail train was to start Sabbath evening. I said: "Frank, I think th/e Lord will excuse

us if we get ourot this place with tne first train,” and we took it, not feeling quite comfortable till we were hundreds of miles away. I felt we were right in flying from the plague—the plague of corrupt and damnable literature. Get away from it as soon as possible. It has already ruined the bodies, minds and souls of a multitude whieh, if stood in solid, column, would reach from New York Battery to Golden horn. The plague! The plague! Word the next: Never go to any place where you would be ashamed to die. Adopt that plan, and you will never go to any evil amusement, nor be found in compromising surroundings. How many startling cases within the past few years <i>f men called suddenly out of this World, and the newspapers surprised hs when they mentioned the locality and companionship. To put it on the ljeast important ground, you ought not to go to any such forbidden place, because if you depart this life in such circumstances, you put officiating ministers in great embarrassment You know that some of the ministers believe that all who leave this life go straight to Heaven, however they have acted in this world, or whatever they have believed. To get you through from such surroundings is an appalling theological undertaking. One of the most arduous and besweating efforts of that kind that 1 ever knew of was at tlije obsequies of a man who was found dead in a snow bank with his rum jug close beside him. But the minister did the wk of the happy transference as well as ^possible, though it did seem a little inappropriate when he

read: “Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord. They rest from their labors, and their works do follow them.” If you have no mercy upon youself, have mercy upon the minister who may be called to officiate after your demise. Die at home, or in some place of honest business, or where the laughter is clean, or amid companionships pure and elevating. Remember that any place we may go to may become our starting point for the next world. When we enter the harbor of Heaven, and the Officer of Light comes aboard, let us be ablje to show that our clearing papers were dated at the right port. Word the next: Do not rate yourself too high. Better rate yourself too low. If you rate yourself too low, the world will say: “Come up.” If you rate yourself too high, the world will say: “Come down.” It is a bad thing when a man gets so exaggerated an idea of himself Jas did earl of Buchan, whose speech Ballhntyne, the Edinburg printer, could not set up for publication because the had not enough capital I’& among his type. Remember that the world got along without you near six thousand years before you were born, and unless some meteor collides with us, or some internal explosion occurs, the world will probably last several thousand years after you are dead. Word the next: Fill yourself with biographies of men who did gloriously in the business, or occupation, or profession, you are about to choose, or have already chosen. Going to be a merchant'* Read up Peter Cooper, and Abbot Lawrence,i and James Lenox, and William E. Dodge, and Gaorge Peabody. See how most of the merchants at the start munched at their noonday luncheon made up of dry bread and a hunk of cheese, behind »

conn ter or h i storeroom, as lT»er started |n a business which brought them to the top of influences which enabled them to Uess the world with , millions ofdollars consecrated to hopitals, and schools, ami churches, and private benefactions, where neither right band nor left hand knew what the other hand did. Going to be a physician? Read up Ilarvey, and Grosse, nnd *Sir Adam Clarke, und James Y. Simplon, and the discoverer of ehloroform as ao anaesthetic, and Leslie Keeley, who, notwithstanding all the damage done by his incompetent imitators, stands one of the greatest benefactors of the centuries: and all the other mighty physicians who have mended broken bones, and enthroned again deposed intellects,and given their lives to healing the long, deep gash of the World's agony. Going to be a mechanic? Read up the inventions of sewing machines, the cotton gins, and life-saving apparatus, and the men who as architects, and builders, and manufacturers, and day laborers have made a life of thirty years in this centuag worth 1 more than the full one hundred years of any other century. You sigTyoung men of Ohio, and all the other young men—instead of wasting your time on dry essays as to how to do great things, go to the biographical alcove of your village or city library, and acquaint yourselves with men who in the sight of earth, and Heaven, and hell, did the great things. Remember, the greatest things are yet to he done, tf the Bible be true, or as I had better put it, since the Bible is beyond all controversy true, the greatest battle is yet to be fought, and compared with it Saragossa, and Gettysburg, and Sedan were child's play with toy ! pistols. We even know the name of the battle, though we are not certain as to where it will be fought, I refer to Armageddon. The greatest discoveries are yet to be made. A scientist has recently discovered in the air something which will yet rival electricity. The most of things have not yet been found out. An explorer has recently found in the valley of the Nile;a whole fleet of .ships buried ages ago where now there is no water. Only six out of the eight hundred grasses have been turned into food like the potato and tomato. There are hundreds of other styles of food to be discovered. Aerial navigation will yet be made as safe as travel on the solid earth. Cancers and consumptions and leprosies are to be tranferred from the catalogue of incurable diseases to the eurable. Medical m*n are now successfully experimenting with modes of transferring diseases from weak constitutions which can not throw them off to stout constitutions which are able to throw? them off. Worlds like Mars and the moon will be within hailing distance,

and, instead of conhning our knowledge to their canals and their volcanoes, they will signal all styles of intelligence to ns, and we will signal all styles of intelligence to them. Coming times will class our boasted nineteenth century with the dark ages. Under the power of gospelization the world is going to be so improved that the sword and the musket of our time will be kept in museums as now we look at thumb-screws and ancient instruments of torture. Oh, what opportunities you are going to have, young men all the world over, under thirty. How thankful you ought to be that you were not born any sooner. Blessed are the cradles that are being rocked now. Blessed are the students in the freshman class. Blessed those who will yet be young men when the new century comes in, in five or six years from now. This world was hardly fit to live in in the eighteenth century. . I do not see how the old folks stood it. During this nineteenth century the world has by Christianizing and educational influences been fixed up until it does very well for temporary residence. But the twentieth century! Ah. that will be the time to see great sights, and do great deeds. Oh, young men, get ready for the rolling io of that mightiest aud grandest and most glorious century that the world has ever seen! Only five summers more; five autumns more: five winters more; five springs more, and then the clock of time will strike the death of the old century and the birth of the new. I do not know what sort of a December night it will be when this century lies down to die; whether it will be starlit or tempestuous; whether the snows will be drifting, or the soft winds will breathe upon the pillow of the expiring centenarian. But millions will mourn its going, for many have received from it kindnesses innumerable, and they will kiss farewell the aged brow wrinkled with so many vicissitudes. Old

muetwuiu txuburjr tu wcuuiujp> and burials; of defeats and Tic* tories; of nations born and nations dead; thy pulses growing feebler now, will soon stop on that thirty-first night of December. But right beside it will be the infant century, held up for baptism. Its smooth brow will glow with bright expectations. The then more than one billion seven hundred millions inhabitants of the earth will hail its birth and pray for its prosperity. Its reign will be for one hundred years, a#d the * most of your life I think will be under the sway of its scepter. Get ready for it. Have your heart right; your nerves right; your brain right; your digestion right. We will hand over to you our commerce, our mechanism, our arts and sciences, our professions, our pulpits, our inheritance. We believe in you. We trust you. Wje pray for you. We bless you. And though by the time you get into the thickest of the fight for God and righteousness we may have disappeared from earthly scenes, we will inot lose our interest in your struggle, and if the dear Lord will excuse us for a little while from the temple service and the house of many mansions, we will come out on the battlements of jasper and cheer you, and perhaps if that night of this world be very quiet, you may hear our voices dropping from afar as we cry: “Be thou faithful unto death, and tl ou shalt have a crown!”

SPRAYING SOLUTIONS. Bmp to Compound a Vw of the Sofas* oo«t Stoat UBmcIwm. Spraying Is most effectual when It It done early in the season. The sooner the work begins the better. Sprayers are bow made of many different designs, and solutions can be carried in barrels on wheels, or on the back, in a contrivance similar to a ^tnapsack. Spraying is intended not only to pro* rent diseases of fruits and vegetables, and to protect the trees and plants in that respect, but is used also as a safeguard against insects. A fungicide is a solution used for destroying parasitic fungi, such as rot, mildew, blight, rust, etc. An insecticide is used for the destruction of insects. Of the wellknown solutions that have been tested and found efficacious are those mentioned below: Blue vitriol (sulphate of copper) is the principal substance nsedasa fungicide. Dissolve six pounds in four gallons of hot water, and then dilate to sixteen gallons. Shake four pounds

ox lime in six gallons or water, in a separate vessel, and when cool strain it into the copper solution. Use wooden ▼easels after mixing. This is known as the “Bordeaux mixture.* Another copper solution, known as “Eau Celeste,” is made by dissolving two pounds of copper sulphate in four gallons of water, adding three pints of ammonia, and then diluting to fifty gallons, applying as soon as made. “Ammoniacal copper solution” is made by using carbonate of copper, instea^ of the sulphate, and carbonate of ammonia. Dissolve three ounces of carbonate of copper in a gallon of water, and one pound of carbonate of ammonia in the same quantity of water, separately. Mix and dilute to fifty gallons, applying ,vhen mixed. For insects, the kerosene emulsion is mostly used. Shate one pound of hard soap in half a gallon of boiling water, and when the soap is dissolved remove the boiling water from the fire; and add half a gallon of kerosene, churning briskly with the force pump of the sprayer for fifteen minutes until the mixture has the appearance of thick cream. Kerosene will not mix with water,*but will form an emulsion with soap. Now add slowly, stirring well from ten to fifteen gallons of water, according to the strength desired. It will keep any length of time, and destroys insects on trees and plants, as well as fleas, lice, etc., and does not injure plants like Unadulterated kerosene, being also much cheaper. A gill of spirits of turpentine will improve the emulsion if added at the time of adding the kerosene. An efficient sprayer should throw a fine, mist-like spray, and the spray should spread over a large surface so as to enable one to do the work quickly and thoroughly.—Prairie Farmer. COW-STABLE FLOOR. An Eastern Editor Gives Some Good Advice to a Subscriber. I must put a new floor in my cow stable this spring, and think of making it of cement. The present one is of plank and about two feet from the ground. I do not want it lower. Will It be wise to fill in so deep with stone, as It would require? Is cement suitable for cattle to stand on with a good bed of straw, or should It be planked over, except the gutter? By al| means fill up the two feet of space below the floor to keep out cold and vermin, and also for the purpose of forming a good foundation for the floor. There is no roason why a cement floor cannot be used, if plenty of bedding is kept under the cattle; otherwise a plank floor would be preferable. Yet we are inclined to think that in the long run a board floor will be the best. • Fill in the space with atone and sand, or dry, sandy earth up to near the level of the top of the gutter,' The mass should then be thoroughly wet and pounded so that it will not settle after the floor is made. On this spread about one inch of mortar made with Akron cement. Upon this lay the plank, having them of fairly uniform width, so that when one gives out it can be easily replaced. The accompanying . i I /

p. Plank; F C. Filling or Cement; U U. coarse Gravel; S, Stone. diagram will show the construction., These planks do not require to be nailed to any extent at the outer end, as the manager should be set upon the end, and woijld hold them down. If the floor projects two inches over the guuter, and the bottom of the gutter pitches a little toward the cattle, the urine will find its place in the lower level, and the cows’ tails will not become soiled. If a cement flow is made, the foundation should be treated as above and about* one inch of Akron cement mortar spread over the surface and pounded in. The surface should be left a little rough and a half to threequarters of an inch lower than the top of the gutter. As soon as the mortar is slightly set put on the last coat with Portland cement and trowel down fairly smooth. In building in this way, it will be found difficult to keep the urine from finding its way back of and eventually under the gutter. All cement floors tend to make the air cold and damp unless covered with bedding and they are more uncomfortable for cattle to stand on than are wooden floors. All this leads one to believe that, all tilings considered, the wooden floor will be found the most satisfactory.—Country Gentleman. SINet of Moisture os Grapes. Prof. Swezey, state meteorologist, said to the Nebraska horticultural society that he had not been able to trace any relation between the amount of rainfall and the yield of the vineyard. The great amount of moisture in the spring sometimes induces free growth and little fruit. A late drought even must be extremely severe to cause the grapes to wither or drop unless blighted, and frequent stirring of the soil or a little irrigation, if practicable, will get the vines through even pro* • longed droughts.

There is only one way to cure Deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have s rumbling sound or un perfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless the Inflammation can he taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out or tea are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
