A ?despatch from Chicago says :—
Rev, Frank De Witt Talmage preach-
ed from the following text : Philip-
pians iv,.3, "Biel") those women who
labored with me in the gospel."
The conspicuous places in the
church have always been filled by
men. The effective, personal work
of the chur h, However, bas to a
large extent been done by women.
Opening the sproll of gospel
triumphs, the names of the greatest
preachers and organizers have been
men; but . in the ordinary . walks of
religious life the consecrated female
workers haera always outnumbered
the consecrated male workers. In
the history of the Christian church
the women members, as a class,
have rarely failed Christ in hours
of need.
It is the "woman behind the gos-
pel gun" who for centuries upon cen-
turies has borne the greatest brunt
of religious strife. It is the "woe
plan behind the gospel gun" in the
home, in the church, on the st2•eet,
in the country, in 'the city and in
the foreign missions who has carried
the name of Jesus Christ all around
the world. It is the "woman behind
the gospel gun" who has won the
greatest gospel victories for our
churches in the past.. Therefore the
purpose of this sermon is to make
a manly plea to the fathers and hus-
bands. brothers and sons. of the
families of our churches to take
their positions in •religious work be-
side their mothers and wives, sis-
ters and daughters. T want to
make the some kind of a manly plea
for the men to work for Christ as
did Paul when he wrote to the men
of his time to "help those women
who labored with me in the gospel."
Nearly every man in my audience
to -day is a believer in Jesus Christ.
It is so with other churches.• Infidels
and agnostics are still numerous,
unhappily, but they are not in our
churches, and the voice from the pul-
pit does not reach their ears. My
ministry so far as preaching to in-
fidels and atheists and agnostics is
concerned is practically ended.
I believe that every man in church
to -day is not only a believer in
Jesus Christ, but that he also ex-
pects some day to receive Christ as
his Saviour' and to be redeemed
from sin by the atonement of the
cross.`
CHRIST'S SATING POWER.
You show the fact involuntarily,
most automatically. I can prove to
you in very few words that you are
a believer in the saving power of a
divine Christ. How do you act ?
What do you say ina crisis ? Sup-
posing you were swept off the deck
of a transatlantic steamer like Cap-
tain Courageous in ltudyard Kip-
ling's story.? What would be the
first cry which would involuntarily
come to your lips ? Would you not
call out at the top of your voice,
"My God, help ?" Supposing you
were caught in a blizzard upon the
western prairie. After you had for
hours been floundering around and
around in the over deepening snow,
would you not, with your benumbed
faculties, moan : "0 Christ, save
mo ! 0 Christ, save me !"
Now, my brother, i1 you believe
in Jesus Christ • and hope some day
to be saved by him why is it that
your belief does not affect your
lige ? Why are you not man enough
to go and work in his- vineyard ?
Your slothful, lazy habits, in a
spiritual sense, ought to make you
despise yourself and have utter con-
tempt for your past actions in re-
ference to your church. You know
it is ingrained in every manly man
to despise a shirk. If a party of
us should go hunting next summer
we would naturally expect every
member of that party to do his full
share of work. If one' of the men
refused to do it. we would never
take him out upon another camping
trip. We would say to one another:
"That zn,an is no good.ale is mean
and contemptible. He is a lazy, de-
spicable shirk." I have- had busi-
ness men come to me and ask
"'What shall I do 9 I have entered
into a business partnership with
such and .such a man.. But he is a
lazy. indolent. useless dead weight.
He will not think of work. And
yet he expects me to divide the pro-
fits with him. Ho is a shirk, a
useless shirk And if there is any-
thing I despise it is a shirk, drain-
ing and sapping my energies, as the
vampires in mythological times used
to suck out the life's blood of their
human victims."
THE SHIRK IN RELIGION.
Now, if you despise a shirk in
pleasure and despise a shirk in bus-
iness, bow is it that you are willing
to be yourself a shirk in •religion ?
You, my brother, believing in Jesus
Chriat and hoping Some day to bo
eternally saved by ,his blood, ought
in common honesty to . fully realize
that your actions towara the church
are just as despicable and contempti-
ble as the shriking characteristics
which you despise in othere. You
are practically saying to yourself :
'4I want to some day reach heaven;
but in. the meantiiiie'I want ray wifa,
niy mother, ney Sister, My daughter,

There is a popular theory abroad

of God to be a good, moral, upright

THE DUTY OF MAN.
Every true man knows that his
wife is not as useful and active a
member of the Christian church when
she goes to church alone as she
would be if her husband were ready
to go by bier • side and help her in
her Christian endeavor to spread the
gospel. The marital ties aro very
sacred. They unify in more ways
than one the„ twain who once stood
at the nuptial altar. After a hus-
band and a wife have been living to-
gether for many, many years they
not euIy. begin to think alike, but
also to grow to look alike. I have
again and again noticed the similar-
ity of looks which are seen upon the
faces of aged .husbands and wives
who have long lived side by side.
They have unconsciously absorbed
parts of each other's physical as
well as mental personalities. So
when a husband is an irreligious
man, a nonchurclzgoer, a scoffer, a
ridiculer, his sneers .and shortcomings
have a marked evil effect upon the
life of the Christian woman who at
the marriage altar has pledged • to
him her love and her life. She inay
fight against deterioration as she
will. but in spite' of herself she can-
not be as good a woman as if she
had married a good Christian man,
who has been consecrated to the ser-
vice of the Lord Jesus Christ from
the day that he left his mother's
home.
IIusbands, in view of this tremend-
ous fact, are you ready to -day to
curtail to a greater or less extent
the spiritual usefulness of your wife?
Aro you ready to curtail her spiritu-
al influence over the life of her chil-
dren because her own spiritual life,
on account of your personal. indiffer-
ence and sins, has been depleted?
Are you ready for the same sinful
marital cause to curtail her influence
in the church Lind in the neighbor-
hood? Because you wish her to be a
social queen are you more desirous
of seeing her surrender the bettor
part of herself to the service of the
world rather than to the service of
her Divine Master?
HUSBAND'S RESPONSIBILITY,
But I take a step further in this
thought. Have you thought that
you may, perhaps, totally destroy
yolir wife's faith in Jesus Christ?
Many and many a husband has done
this before, and perhaps you may bo
doing this now. If you, 0 man, are
indif'oront to the gospel message,
and shall be eternally destroyed,
perhaps your wife may become in-
different about her own salvation.
Perhaps she inay be willing to be de-
stroyed so that sho can say to you
as Muth of old said to Naomi: "En-
treat ins not to leave thee, or to
return from following after thee; for
whither thou goest I will go, and
where thou lodgost I will lodge: thy
people shall be xny people and thy
God my God." I once heard of an
African chief who carne ono day to a
missionary and said, "Missionary, if
I accept Jesus Christ will 1 be sav-
ed?" "Yes," answered the mission-
ary. "Well, missionary, as my fa-
ther did not accept Jesus Christ,
will he be eternally destroyed?"
"Yes," answered the missionary, not
seeing whither the question led,
"And lily grandfather and groat -
grandfathers, aro they all destroyed
because they did not accept Jesus
Christ?" "Yes," answered the mis-
sionary, without thought of the ef-
fect of his answer. Then the African
chief lifted high his head as ho an-
swered: "Missionary, I reject your
Christ. 'I do not wish to be separ-
ated even in death from my. father.
I prefer to be eternally' destroyed as
he is eternally destroyed."

THE S. S. LESSON.
INTERNATIONAL LESSON,
AUG. 23.
Text of the Lesson, I. Sam. xx.,
12-23 Golden Text, Prov.
xviii., 24.
11-13. 1f it pleases my- father to
do thee evil, then T will show it
thee and send thee away that thou
mayest go in peace, and the Lord
be with thee.
In former years -1889 and 1895-
we had studies in the opening and
closing verses of this chapter, and
now we have a central portion, • but
aro recommended to study the whole
chapter, which is the story of Jona-
than's love and faithfuhress to
David and their separation because
of Saul's persistent effort to kill
David. As Saul's persecutions of
David increased. David one day said
to Jonathan, "As the Lord liveth
and as thy' soul liveth there is but
a step between me and death" (verse
8). Jonathan could not believe
that his father really meant to kill
David, and so he said he would
sound his 'father and let liavidknow,
and that is where out; lesson to -day
begins. Jonathan solemnly calls
God to witness that whether the tid-
ings, from his father be good or evil
he will surely let David know.
14, 15. And thou shalt not only
while yet I live show mo the kind-
ness of the Lord that I die not, but
also thou shalt not cut off tlzy kind-
ness from my house forever.
Then he speaks of a time when the
Lord shall have cut off all the ene-
ixiies of David froxn the face of the
earth. At their last meeting Jona-
thon Raid, 'Mimi. shalt be king over
Israel" (xxiii, 17). Ire evidently
believed God and loved and honored
hint whom the Lord delighted , to
honor. It was not merely kindness
that Jonathan askcc! of David, but
the kindness of the Lord; so after
Jonathan's death we hear David •in-
quiring, "Is there yet any that is
left of the house of Saul that 1 may
show hint kindness for Jonathan's
sake, * * * that I may shew the
kindness of God unto him?" (I1
Sain. ix, 1, 8.) .Wizen we have
learned to know and enjoy "the
kindness and love of God our. Sav-
iour (Tit, iii, 4), it should be our
greatest desire to show or make
known that . loving kindness to
others, oven 'to our eneanies if we
have any.
16, 17. .And Jonathan caused Dav-
id to swear again by his love to-
ward ,him, for ho loved him as he
loved his own soul.
1 have quoted partly from the
margin. That Jonathan loved him
as his own soul is written again in
xviii, 1, 8, where it is also said
that the soul of Jonathan was knit
with the soul of David. In 1318 la-
mentation over' him he said, "Thy
Jove to me was wonderful, passing
the love of women" (7;l Sam. 1, 26).
The conduct and words of Jonathan
aro all so suggestive of the greater
love of a greater King's Son, who
lies ]reit His soul to ours and strip.-
n,nd yet is not a church membele.Youepeet himself of all Elis glory that
Ile might save its from wrath and
exalt no to His throne; and who
also says to us, "Whatsoever thy
soul desireth 1 will even do it for
thee" - (xviii, 4; xx, 4; 1T Cor. viii,
9; Mark x, 51; John xlv, 18, 14;
xv, 7), When those two xx>en part-
ed tlldy kissed and wept until David
exceeded (xx, 41). There was noth-
ing that they would not do for each
other. if it lay in the power of either
to do it: 'Set all was but the faint.,
est shadow of the love of Christ to
18-,22. If I expressly say unto the
lad, Behold, the arrows are on this
side of then, take them; then con*
thou, for there is place to thee and
no hurt as the Lord liveth. But if
I say thus unto the young roan, Be-
hold, the arrows aro beyond then;
go thy way, for the Lord hath
sent thee away.
These verses tell ]low Jonathan ar-
ranged to give David the infornxation
as to whither he was to return or
flee for his life. The rest of the
chapter tells of Jonathan's interview
with his father and the discouraging
tidings he was compelled to convey
to David, Saul's words to his own
son seed his attempt to kill even him
(verses 30-83) told too plainly what
David's lot would be if Saul got him
in his power. Jonathan's leaving
his father's table and his subsequent
fasting showed how deeply he felt
the wrong done to David. 1f we
were as sensitive concerning wrong
said or done to our Lord Jesus
Christ and would refuse to stay in
the company of those who ill treat
Him, it would be only doing right
in Ibis sight. In these days when so
mucli shame and contempt are being
heaped upon our Lord by preachers
and professors who pose as Ills
friends it is well to act as Jonathan
did to his own father and refuse to
keep company with such despisers of
God and IIis word.
23. And as touching the matter
which thou.. -and I have spoken of,
behold the Lord be between thee and
me forever. •
Again as they parted after their
much weeping Jonathan used the
same words, adding, "And between
my send and thy seed." So he re-
lied on David's faithfuleess. And holy
much more may we rely upon the
faithfulness of our Lord Jesus Christ
and God the Father! Do we fear
the trials by the way? God is faith-
ful, who will not suffer us to be
tempted above that we are able. Do
wo fear that sin shall conquer us and
cut us off from Him? Il we confess
our sins, 1Ie is faithful and just to
forgive us our sins and to cleanse
us from all unrighteousness Is it the
matter of blamelessness in the day
of our Lord Jesus Christ? God is
faithful, by whom ye are called unto
the fellowship of IIis Son Jesus
Christ our Lord. Faithful is He that
calleth you, who also will do it (1
Cor. x., 13; i. 9; 1 John i., 9; 1
Thess. v., 23, 24). 'When David
came to his last hours, his comfort
was the faithfulness of God. "Al-
though my house be not so with
God, yet He hath made with me an
everlasting covenant, ordered in all
things and sure" (II. Sans. xxiii.,
5).
THE KING'S COLLECTIONS.
The King carefully preserves the
artistic programmes of proceedings
in which he has taken part. These
souvenirs, which number several
thousands, are all pasted in large
albums, which are kept in the library
of Buckingham Palace. In the same
way the King has kept all his thea-
tre progranuncs since his earliest
playgoing days. This is, without
doubt, the most curious aizd valu-
able collection of its kind in the
world, for managers do not give
kings and princes ordinary pro-
grammes. The. bill of the play plac-
ed in the Royal box used to be
printed on silk or satin, with a
heavy fringe. It is now, as a rule,
less elaborate, but not for that rea-
son less artistic.

TIM RULING INSTINCT.
The ruling instinct of the house-
keeper sometimes persists under sin-
gular circumstances. It is told of
one mistress of an exquisitely kept
home, which never seemed to her
quite exquisite enough that her first
remark one morning, on being in-
formed that the house had been en-
tered by burglars during the night
was:
"This house really most be kept in
better 'order, if people are going to
drop in so unexpectedly."
Another woman, a village house-
keeper, devotedly attached to the old
homestead in which she lived alone,
the last of her family, had the
crushing misfortune to lose it by
fire. Only the broken shell of the
main building, and the charred ell
and kitchen remained. The fire oc-
curred in the evening; early the next
morning, before any one was astir,
she slipped out of the neighbor's
house, where she had passed the
night, returned to her own, and pro-
ceeded to sweep the kitchen. as clear
as possible of soot, splinters, Water
and the singed feathers, flying about
from burst beds. Then she kindled
a bright fire on the hearth, brought
in a few broken chairs from the lit-
tered yard, and when --as she knew
would happen --friends and neighbors
began to visit the yet smoking ruins
she was ready; still the. hostess of
her home, to receive their condolence
es with dignity.
