A clespatc.h• fieem. Chicago ss:
: Rev, Frank De Witt Tannage preach-
ed from the following text: Mark
vl, 81, "Come ye yourselves aPart
i into a desert place and rest, awhile."
• A. dealt place! • What does that
mean? Is Christ bidding his dis-
ciples folloye him ovei.• a great sea
of sand?. Does he want his com-
panions to lose themselves among
the endless dunes and live where
neither beast nor bird nor fish nor
insect can live? Dos he desire them
to be terror stricken at the mean-
ings of the simoone or to be smoth-
ered in one of those a.Wful desert
windstorms and be there as com-
pletely lost as the merciless ocean
eim swallow down a shipwrecked
crew and leave no trace where the
• watery jaws have opened and shut?
No. Christ is not here alluding to
a Mesopotamian or re Persean or a
Sahara desert of sand. Christ is
practically saying to his disciples,
who are physically and nientelly
worn out from too 3xtuch work:
"Come, let .os go into the country
where we can be alone. Let us go
among the hills where we shall be
separated from these throngs of peo-
ple who are continually following us
to be physically he'd and spiritu-
ally fed. Let us g9 off alone, where
we shall hear only the rustling of
the leaves and the singing of the
birds and the rippling of the brooks.
Let ne hie away into nature's
haunts, where we can see the deer
playing in the valleys and where we
cau stumble through the wild vines
growing at our feet. Let us go
away to the place where the shep-
herd leads his flocks among the
fresh green pasture lands."
WHY A REST IS NEEDED.
Satan is a great strategist. He
rarely attacks his enemies in the
places where he thinks they are in-
vulnerable. He is always trying
new schemes and plans. When Sa-
tan finds a true Christian who is
consecrated to God's service, he
inamediately calls together his de-
moniac lieutenants and says: "That
must be stopped in his career of
good works. Those lips of his must
be closed. That hand must be made
helpless. That pure heart must be
struck with some poisonous arrow.
That foot of his must be led along
the stony. path of sin." No vision
of earth can. arouse Satan into such
a frenzied passion as the sight of a
good man consecrating his years to
good works. So Satan. when he
sees a good man consecrating his
life to good deeds, intreediately dis-
patches his angels of temptation..
First, Satan. offers to that good
man all the allurements of popular
applause and worldly pleasures. The
spirit of temptation does not come
like a wrinkled old hag, with her
bony hands changed into the shape
of an eagle's claw, which can be
used to kill as well es tear away
the quivering flesh. But the spirit
of temptation comes in the Mien of
the evil spirit like that which the
artist once painted. He drew- the
spirit of temptation as a beautiful
angel. Her lips were wreathed in
smiles. Iler hair had hidden in it
the brilliant colors of the setting
sun. Her lap was full of flowers.
Her couch was the rim of eh cloud,
while under the shadow of her flow-
ing robes crouched the demoniac
form of death. So Satan tries to
destroy the good man by adulation,
by applause. By his very successes
• Satan tries to turn his humble
heart of love into a vain heart of
aim
Then if Satan finds that worldly
applause and the wine cup and the
midnight carousal do not stop the
,career of the good man who has con-
secrated his life to good deeds he
tries another mode. He says: ”I
• will unkennel and unleash All the
bloodhounds of persecution and ads -
representation and slander and turn
them upon the good man's track. I
will let this pack of demoniac blood-
hounds bury their white teeth into
his limbs; I will let these blood
hounds leap upon him and try to
• tear • out his heart. Ah, 1 have
made many a good man on account
of slander turn and curse God! Per-
haps I can destroy this man in this
way."
SATAN rn.,Ls BY OVERWORK.
But after Satan has tried to de-
stroy this good man by both popu-
lar applause and by the hounds of
persecution and slander and has fail-
ed Satan has one way left. Satan
says to himself: "I cannot • make
that man give up hist Clod, but I
can, kill him. with overwork. I can
pile the Christian opportunities of
usefulness upon that brilliant, con-
secrated, young gospel ininister; I
will keep him working during tho
day and during the night; I will
• lceep him working during the winter
• and during the summer: .1 will give
him a bigger church than he can at-
• tend to; I will ha. -v the editors write
• him to send articles for their pa-
• . • per; I will have the summer camp

by offering him a. Cambridge prize;
• I will kill him as I killed William
Paley, at, thirty-nine, years of age
the inoat brllIant Christian intel-
lect of his day; 1 will kill him, as I
have burned out the brain 1 of many
a genius:, by overwork before that
brain lived long enough to light an
intelleettial torch whirl would •have

I believethat most good people need
to take this advice. Most good peo-
ple look tired. Go Where yeti, will,
in the store or in the hOnae, and the
one great coniplaint that you hear
every pring and summer "1 am
so tired, awfully tired. I am as
tired when 1 get up in the morning
as when I lie down to sleep at
night,” Why, inost people in the
springtime • look as tired as that
poor woman. who mune to me one
day and said: "Mr. Talmage. don't
talk to me about heaven. I do not
want to go to heaven for a. long
time yet. 1 iten so tired that wheri
come to die I ovart God to let me
sleep in my grave for a thousand
years. Then, atter I have beccene
thoroughly rested, I want to open
ther eyes and see hea.ven.," My their -
worked Christian friend, if you Wait
to do your best work for Christ next
winter you muse treat your body
just as you would treat n tired, run
down, exhausted • horse Which has
been worked all winter. You Would
take off his shoes and then leiM out
to .grass. You must - treat year
body as a farmer emote a field which
has .benn overworked in production.
He lets it lie fallow for awhile. You
should treat your body as nature
treats the vegetation, It sends the
colds of winter so Out all the for-,
ccs of the trees can lie dormant. As
a :Christian worker for amt iv:Meer,
when you will have so much to do,
what you need now to eaa,ble you to
do your next winter's duty is net
medicine, but rest—complete physical
and mental rest; the same kind of
rest Which Christ gave to his dis-
ciples when he led them off lath a
desert place.
GO INTO THE DESERT.
The fashionable watering places
are very expensive places in which
to live. But when Jesus bade his
disciples to go into the desert place
and rest awhile he commanded them
to go intb the quietude of the
country. One can live very cheaply
in the rural districts. It does not
cost very much to go into the sub-
urbs of the city and live for alittle
while next to nature's heart, to
dwell in some quiet farmhouse far
away from the great, busy world.
It does not cost vely much to •as-
sociate for a little 'while with the
eows and the sheep, to carry the
lambs and feed the chickens, to toss
the hay and to htuit the eggs. It
does not cost very much to study
God's thoughts in the leaves, to
study God's thoughts in the flowers,
to hear God's voice in the music of
the winds. No somnambohince can
SO rest the tired brain as the quiet-
ude of the woods. That is where
God wants us to rest. In the desert
place means near to the great.
throbbing- heart of Mother Nature.
To prove that it will not cost
very much to go out for a few days
into the quietude of the country and
rest awhile I would like to ask you
a pertinent question. You have net
had a vacation—that is, the kind of
vacation Christ wants you to take
—for a long while. How much did
you spend in doctor's bills last
year ? "Well," you answer, "last
winter was a hard winter for me.
I seemed to be taking cold all the
time. My the -oat was very weak.
and each draft would affect it. One
week rheas in bed threatened with
pneumonia; another time I had
bronchitis. 1 was away from the
store about ten days. My doctor's
bills wore very high. I have not
paid them all up yet." I would like
to ask you another pertinent ques-
tion. What did your druggist bills
amount to last • winter ? "Oh," you
answer, "I was buying medicines all
the time—medicines for my diges-
tion, medicines for my cough, medi-
cines for headaches, tablets for this
and that and the other thing."
ECONOMY OF A VACATION.
Now, my friends, you are ready, I
think, to listen to rational advice.
You know that one of the great
medical tenets states that it is far
better to prevent disease rather than
cure the disease after ie has come.
Old Dr. Samuel D. Gross, the great-
est surgical authority of his day,
• used to say to his students, "Gen-
tlemen, any stupid butcher with a.
meat ax can chop off a leg, but it
often takes a very great surgeon to
save one." .Any man can take medi-
cine after he is sick, but it takes a
wise man to look far enough ahead
to keep his body in such physical
trim that he will not get sick. And,
my friends., would it not be far bet-
ter for you as Ohrietion workers to
look ahead and spend the Money
which you might give to the'.doceors
and the druggists in taking a 'sum-
mer. vacation ? Would it not be far
more economical for you to spend
sone° money in toning up your phy-
sical system by taking- a rest ?
Then you carr resist the ordinary
diseases; then you will not have to
be placed upon an invalid's bed Un-
til God says that your work is
done; then you will save money by
resting as well as the precious time
Which you can ill afford to lose
from your next winter's 'work.
But when. the Christian goes off
into the Country to rest he can go
off to pray in the same spirit with
which Christ went. When be gets
aWay from the store, the factory,
the home, his rested wiled will be-
gin to clean. As he saunters oett to
lie down under the shadows of the
trees with.his Bible he will begin
to realize how the goodness of (loci
has followed him all the days of
his life. He Will begin to see in
the quietude of the Woods that even
iri hie trembles the hand of God hrts
been leading him, that all thiege
'merle together for good for those
\the Jew the Lerch, Then as he site
there in the woods upon the hill-
side with the brook gurgling by hie
Side he Will think that ha is sitting
at Christ's feet, ithet- the Porno es -
the disciplm Q1 old lased to do in
the open air. Thee, be will hear a
chirp. When he looks up, he will
see a, little bird sodoging upon the
tree: branches over his head. HS will
turn and read from Matthew; "Are
not two sparrows sold for a berth-
ing, ond one of them shall net? fall
on the ground without your Father,
Fear ye not, therefore; ye are of
more value than many sparrows."
As the Christian wife walks through
the fields and picks the daisies end
clover tops and the golden -rod and
the bright yellow buttercups she
will reinember the words Jesus spoke
when he said that as he cared : for
the lilies of the fields so he would
care for her. There is no place on
earth where a man can get. so close
to God as with an open Bible in the
quietude of the woods,
TAKE CHRIST ALONG.
But there is one other advantage
of a summer who:time about which
I Welted speak a few words. That
edvantago ist the desire which comes
to all true Christian hearts to • get
haek into the harness to do th,e
work which God has given thein to
do after the summer vacation
ended, In the spring the tired
schoolteacher is apt to complain,
She says to herself : "Why did I
ever beeeerne a- public school teaeh--
er ? Many of the mothers only send
their children to me because they
are too lazy to take care of the
children themselves." But after the
Christian schoolteacher has had a
vest in the country with God she
begins to realize her opportunities,
and she says : "Oh, how good God
is ,to me 1 Think of the opportun-
ity of usefelness I have 1 Perhaps
by the grace of God I shall met only
influence these children, but also the
sinful homes from which they donee."
After the,ininister has been off alone
with °heist to rest awhile be longs
to lie hack in his pulpit to preach
again about the Christ whom he has
.so le:treed to love. The mother, the
tired mother, after she has lead her
rest chimes 'back With a happier'
heart, a sweeter smile and a gentler
prayer. May God pity to -clay the
mete and women who are so physi-
cally exhausted that they think
their religious opportunitiee for do-
ing good are a perpetual butclem
By the power of recreating rest may
au Christian woreers during the
coming suienner months have, their
spiritual eyes opened. Meer they
rapturously See that the happiest
'duty on earth is the opportunity, to

THE S. S. LESSON.
INTERNATIONAL LESSON,
AUGUST 10.
Text of the Lesson, Lev. x.,
Golden Text, I Thess. Y., six.
1. And Nadab and Abihu, the sons
of Aaron, * * * offered strange fire
before the Lord, which He com-
manded them not.
The opening chapters of this book
tell of the different offerings, all
typifying • out Lord's one great of-
fering, and of the consecration of
the priests, the Lord accepting the
atonement ofTerings by fire super-
natural (10v. ix, '7, 22-24). Now,
right at tho beginning of the minis-
try of the priesthood we see this
sad failure on the part of two of
Aaron's sons. "Every man at his
best state (apart from God) is al-
together vanity" (Ps. xxxix, 5).
2. And there went out fire from
the Lord and devoureri them, • and
they died before the Lord.
Thus at the very beginning of the
priesthood Jehovah made it very
plain that He would have a whole-
hearted service or none. So also at
the beginning of the church story
in the ease' of Ananias and Sapphira
(Acts v, 5, 10) He showed uumis-
takably how He hates deceit and
half heartedness.
3. Then Moses said unto Aaron,
This is it that the Lord. spoke, say-
ing, I will be sanctified in them that
come nigh Me, and before all the'
people I will be glorified. And Aar-
on held his peace.
That they were to be a holy peo-
ple unto the Lord is the oft repeat-
ed requirement from. Ex. xix, 6, 22,
onward. Jesus said concerning Him-
self end His disciples in His great,
intercessory prayer, "For their sakes
I sanctify Myself that they also
might be 'sanctified through the
truth" (John xvii, 19).
6, 5. Come near; carry your bre-
threnfrom before the sanctuary out
of the camp.
Thus Moses commanded the sons
of Uzziel, the uncle of Aaron, and
'thus they did. But what about Nee
del and Abileu? We never bury
people, strictly speaking; we bury
the bo'diet in whit:h they sojourned
for a season. • It has been a great
comfort to me to think of this since
ever t grasped the fact that if my
body ever has a, burial I will not be
there that day, but rtetent from the
body and present with, the Lord;
'with. Christ, which is valor far better
(II Coe. v, 8; Phil. i, 21, .28).•
6. Uncover not your heads; neith-
er rend your clothes.
Thus Moses commanded Aaron and
his , two surviving sons, Mourning
h as ofttimes a large element of ree
hellion in it. This we- must not tole
oraM, lest we find fault with . God,
We must abide on the Lord's side
even though his ehaetening falls on,
those who are very dear to us. , If
we love our loved 011eS more than we
love Clod, we aro not worthy of Him.

• COWS ON THE ROOF.
The funniest, thing yet discovered
in the management of cows is the
Peruvian fashion of keeping them on
the top of the liouse. The big
rambliog houses of rhino have adobe
roofs, flat as a board floor,. and
there are hundreds of them in the
suburbs of that proud old eity
Which serve the purpoet of a barn-
yard. The 'utiles and horses aro
housed itt the lower rooms • of the
house (for in Spanish America, il: IS
generally the fashion for humans to
inhabit the ground floor), while on'
the top fowls, pigs, and goats are
raised, and the cow spends her days
there, haVing been carried up when
