iBODl'WJAffli k Typical and SucoeGsfdl Hunter. 4. StMOMbU garmon Br th Grat Brook...lyn Dtvlao. Dr. Talmage preached at Brooklyn last Sunday. Subject ,kA Hunting Scene. H Text Genesis xlix, 27. "In the morninp; he shall devour the prey, and at night he shall divide khe spoil." On a certain day in all England you con hear the crack of the sportsman's gun, because grouse hunting bas begun, and every man that can ifford the time and ammunition and can draw a bead starts for the fields. Xenophon grew eloquent in regard to the art of hunting. In the far East people, elephant mounted, chase the tiger. The American Indian darts his arrow at the buffalo until the frightened herd tumble over the rocks. European nobles are often found in the fox cbabe and at the stag hunt: Francis I was called the father of hunting. Moses declared of Nimrod, He was a mighty hunter before the Lprd." Therefore, in all ages of the world the imagery of my text ought to be suggestive, whether it means a wolf after a fox or a man after a lion. Old Jacob, dying, is telling the fortunes of his children. He prophecies the devouring propensities of Benjamin and his descendants. With his dim old eyes he looks off and sees the hunters going out to the fields, ranging them all day, and at nightfall coming home, the game slung over the shoulder, and reaching the dapr of the tent the hunters begin to distribute the game, and one takes a coney, another a rabbit, and another a roe. "In the morning he shall devour the prey, and at night

,he shall divide the spoil." Or it may

be a reference to the habits of wild beasts that slay their prey and then drag it back to the cave or lair and divide it anong the young. I take my text, In the first place, as descriptive of those people who in the morning of their life give themselves up to hunting the world, but afterward, by the grace of God, in the evening of their life divide among them spoils of Christian character. There are aged Christian men and women in this house, who, if they gave testimony would tell you that in the morning of their life they were after the world as intense as abound after a hare, or as a falcon swoops upra the gazelle. They wanted the world's plaudits and the world's gains. They felt that if they could get this world they would have everything. Some of them started out for the pleasures of the world. They thought that the man who laughed loudest was the happiest. They tried rej&rtee and conundrum and burlesque and madrigal. . After awhile misfortune struck them hard on the back. They round there was something they could not laugh at. Under their late hours t&eir health gave way or there was a death in the house. Of every green thing -their soul was exfoliated. They found out that life was more than a joke. From the heart of God there blazed into their soul an earnestness they had never felt before. They awoke to their sinfulness and their immorality; and here they sit at sixty or seventy years of age as appreciative of all innocent mirth as they ever were, but they are bent on a style of satisfaction which in early life they never hunted the evening of their days ' brighter than the morning, in the morning they devoured the prey, but at night they divided the spoils. Then there are others who started out for financial success. They see how limber the rim of a man's hat is when he bows down before some one transpicuous. They felt they would

like to see how the world looked from

.the window of a four-thousand-dollar turnout. They thought they would like to see the morning sunlight tangled in the headgear of a dashing span. They wanted the bridges in the park to resound under the rataplan of their swift hoofs. They waned a gilded baldric, and so they started on the dollar hunt. They chased it up one street and chased it down another. Thev followed it when it burrowed in the cellir. They treed it in the roof. In the morning of their life, oh, how they devoured the prey! But there came a better time to their soul. They found out that an immortal nature cannot live on bank stock. They took up a Northern Pacific bond, and there was a hole in it through which they could look into the uncertainty of ail earthly treasures. They saw some Ralston, living at the rate of $25,000 a month, leaping from a San Francisco wharf because he could not continne to live at the same ratio. They saw the wizen 'and paralytic bankers who had changed their souls into molten gold stamped with the imae of the earthy, earthy. They saw some great souls by avarice turned into omunculi, and they said to themselves, "I will seek after higher treasure." My friends, this world is a poor thing to hunt. It is healthful to goout iyi the woods and hunt. It rekindles the luster of the eye. It strikes the brown of the autumnal leaf into the cheek. It gives to the rheumatic limbs the strength to lean

Jike a roe. Christopher North's pet

gun, the muckle-mou d Meg, going off in the summer in the forests had its echo in the winter time in the eloquence th;,t rang through the university halls of Edinburgh, It is healthy togo hunting in the fields,

I hut I tell you that it is belittling

man to hunt this world. The hammer comes down on ;the guncap, and the barrel explodes and kills you instead of that which you are pursuing. Young man, did- you ever take the census of all the old people? How many old people are there in your house? .One, two, or none? How many in-& -vast assemblage like this? Only here and there a gray head, like the patches of snpw here and

there in thQ.field.on a late Aoril day.

me racD is ui-at ineaiaes of tne years are $o strong that men go down under them before they get to be sixty, before they get to be fifty, before they get to be fyrty, before they get to be thirty ;.iH' if you, my young brother, resolve now that you will spend the morning of your days in devouring the prey the probability is that you will never divide the spoils in the evening hour. Ho who postpones until old age the religion of Jesus Christ postpones it forever. While this in an encouragement to old people who are still unpardoned, it is no encouragement to the young who are putting off the day of grace. This doctrine that the old may be repentant is to be talked cautiously. It is medicine that kills or cures. The same medicine given to different patients, in one case it saves life and in the other it destroys it. This possibility of repentance at the close of life may cure the old man while it kills tfye young. Be cautious in takngit. Conversion is instantaneous. A man passes into the kingdom of God quicker than down the sky runs zigzag lightning. A man may be anxious about his soul for a great many years; that does not make him a Christian. A man may pray a great while; that does not make him a Christian. A man may resolve on the reformation of his character and have that resolution going on a great while; that does not make him a Christian. But the very instant when he flings his sou! on the mercy of Jesus Christ that instant is lustration, emancipation, resurrection. Up to that point he is oing in the wrong direction; after that point he is going in the right direction. Before that moment ho is a child of sin; after that moment he is a child of God. Before that moment devouring the prey; after that moment dividing the spoils. Five minutes is as good as five years. My hearer, you know very well that the best things vou hare done you have done in a fiash. You made up your mind in an instant to buy, or to sell, or to invest, or to stop, or to start. If you had missed that one chance, you would have misscsd it forever. Now, just as precipitate and quick and spontaneous will be the . ransom of vour sv:L Some morning you were making a calculation. You get on the track of some financial or social gamu With your pen or peiic you were pursuing it. That very morning yu were devouring the pivy, out that very night you were in a different mood. You found that nil heaven was offered you. You wondered how you could get it for yourself and for your famil'. You wondered what resources it would give you now and hereafter. You are dividing peace and comfort and satisfaction and Christian reward in your soul. You are dividing the spoils. One Sabbath night at the close of the service I said to some persons. 4 'When did you first become serious about vour soul?" An J they told me, "To-night," And I said to others, "When did vou give vour heart to God?" And thev said, ''To-nurht." And I said to still others, "When did you resolve to serve the Lord all the days of your life?' And they said "To-night." I saw by ihegayety of their apparel that when the grace of God struck them thev were devouring the prey, but I also saw in the flood of joyful tears, and in the kindling raptures on their brow, and in their exhilarant and transporting utterances, that they were dividing the spoils. If you have been in thi3 building when the lights are struck at night, you know that with one touch of electricity they are all blazed. Oh. I would to God that the darkness of your souls might be broken up, and that one quick, overwhelming, instantaneous flash of illumination you might be brought into the light and the liberty of the sons of God! What is religion? ft is dividing the spoil. It is taking a defenseless soul and panoplying it for eternal conquest. It is the distribution of prizes by the king's hand, every medal stamped with a coronation. It is an exhilaration, expansion. It is imparadisatiori. It is enthronement. Religion makes a man master of earth, of death and hell. It goes forth to gather the medals of victory won by Prince Emanuel, and the diadems of heaven, and the glory of realms terrestial and celestial, and then, after ranging all worlds for everything that is resplendent, it divides the spoils. What was it that James Turner, the famous English evangelist, was doing when in his dving moments he said: "Christ is all! Christ is all!" Why, he was entering into light. He was rounding the Cape of Good Hope. He was dividing the spoils. What was the aged Christian quakeress doing when at eighty years of afife she arose in the meet-in? one day and said: "The time of my departure is come. My grave clothes are falling off?" She was dividing the spoil. Though you came in children of the world, you may go away heirs

j of heaven, Though this very autumnal morning you were devouring j the prey, now, ail worlcs witnesiQK you may divide the spoil.

THE HIGHEST AWARD. Royal Baking Powder Has All the Honors in Strength and Value Twenty Per Cent. Above It Nearest Competitor. The Royal Baking Powder has the enviable record of having received the highest award fon articles of its class--greatest strength, purest ingredients, most perfectly combined wherever exhibited in competition with others. In the exhibitions of former years, at the Centennial, at Paris, Vienna and at the various State and Industrial fairs, where it has been exhibited, judges have invariably awarded the Royal Baking Powder the highest honors. At the recent World's Fair the examinations for the baking powder awards were directed bv the chief chemist of the Agricultural Department at Washington. The chief chemist's official report of the tests of the baking powders, which was made for the specific purpose of ascertaining which was the best, shows the leavening strength of the Royal to be 160 cubic inches' of carbonic gas per ounce of powder. Of the cream of tartar baking powders exhibited, the next highest in strength tested contained but 133 cubic inches of leavening as. The ther powders gave an average of 111. The Royal, therefore, was found of 20 per cent, greater leavening strength than its nearest competitor, and 44 per cent, above the average of all the other tests. Its superiority in other respects, however, in the quality of the food it makes as to fineness, delicacy and wholesomeness, could not be measured by figures. It is these high qualities, known and appreciated by the women of the country for so mauy years, that have caused the sales of the Royal Baking Powder, as shown by statistics, to exceed the sale of all other baking powders combined.

Free Medical Advice. Pimples are caused by eating too much meat, cheese or other rich food. Anybody who is troubled with them can banish them in a few weeks by a diet of fruit and simple food, and not very much of it. Meat, cheese and the like are too rich for the blood of some persons and cause a species of blood impurity, or mild
