J1aI1y, of Toronto, at the Department of Agriculture, Ottawa.) A despatch from Chicago says :— Rev. Frank Ile Witt Talmage preach- ed front , the following text : Psalm civ, 28, "Man goeth forth unto his. work and to his •labor until the •evening." The ordinary average laboring man works from sun to sun. • Now comes the practical and pertinent question, "How is be to spend his evenings?" This is to be our theme. It is to be our subject t for two tease . First,rst r because totnorrotts Labor day. It i _Y is a day legalized as a holiday by the stale legislatures, during which all thoughtful • men and women should discuss or hear speeches upon thereat problems which affect the g laboring classes. Such' a subject as "Labor's Evenings" naturally grows out of a Labor Sunday service. It is our theme because this immi- nent moral and spiritual problem can never be rightly solved by tho laboring man alone. ITe needs • the help of sympathetic men 'who have -capital -which they can invest in educational appliances that will yield thein in return in higher effi- •ciency and grateful loyalty to their interests. The problem of capital and tabor must he solved, if ever solyed, by the Christian co-opera- tion. both of rich and the poor; by Christian philanthropists placing in their employees' hands the means by which they can lift themselves up. The Macedonian cry which once sounded over the Mediterranean wa- ters for Paul to come and help his foreign brethren is now echoing across the black chasm which separ- ates the employer from the employee. It comes from the laborers, who wait for no annual dividends, but live from hand to mouth on the pay which they receive in weekly in- stallments. "!'lease explain yourself more in detail," some one says. Well, I will. In the first place, I find that the social instinct is a God inhplant- ed Instinct, and must and will find vent out of the human heart. The gregarious tendency is strong in men as it is in animals. Cattle travel in herds. If a farmer turns out his cows upon the mountain sides ho only has to place one bell upon one cow. Then it is easy for him to find the rest of the herd. Some years ago an inexperienced German came to live in Pike county, , Pa., where I was at that time preaching. He set that whole county laughing. Why ? In his lack of knowledge of animal instinct he placed a different bell on every cow. Thus his herd of cows would go over those moun- tains clanging their discordtl,nt bells like a big orchestra tuning up its instruments for a concert piece. It only needs one bell for one herd of cattle. Cows always travel togetle. cr. The salve law applies to sheep and horses and buffaloes and mostly to birds and fish. They love to be. in each other's society. They live in herds or flocks or schools. The social instinct in the human race, as in all animals, is a God implanted instinct. Man will associate with man, and no power on earth can help it. He will associate with man in the church or else in the saloon or club or secret society. He must and will find perpetual com- panionship during his evening hours. The church should provide a place or the harmless indulgence of that Craving. STOW TO REACH TIM MASSES. Statement second : I find by study of books and personal investigation that every church which has first been baptized by the Holy Spirit and then gone forth to reach the. middle or the laboring classes through .the social gate has always been blest of God in a marvelous way. Oh, why will not all of the churches learn the value of doing their' work by appealing to the soc- ial instincts ? In the most congested parts of our cities the saloons have no difficulty to live They appeal to mankind through the social gate. Upon their windows I see these- words advertis- ed everywhere : "free Lunch." What docs that mean ? Have the saloon keepers suddenly become philanthro- lasts ? Are they animated with the gospel desire to feed the poor and care for the starving ? Oh, no 1 The saloon keeper is a man shrewd and keen in business. • .ITe says : "If I with a sandwich can only entice my victims into my hell hole, then I can keep them here by the social in- stinct. I will then surround then with my hirelings and hold them in grips of steel." There is an old say- ing in church circles : "Give the peo- ple a free lunch and there is no dif- ficulty in collecting a crowd." If the saloon keepers can afford to give a. free lunch every morning, noon and night in the service- of tho devil 1 do not Believe it a poor policy once in awhile on a week night for the in- stitutinnal church to give a "free lunch" in the name of Christ. - • 'EVIL INFLUENCES, Wihen I go down the street of a • Mouduy: night, past church eafter church, tomblike • and silent and dark on account of their closed doors and find the billiard halls in. full iliunsination and crowded with the young men of our land, I -know .than that there is something wrong.

You .who de- rry the . mission - of the institutioxtal church, did you ever stop to i"aallee that in the congested districts of your tenement buildings there is hardly a public place for- a working- man to go and get warns except to a saloon, there is harly a place where he can go to meet the most sacred wants 01 his physical nature in a saloon ? Therefore can we and tiara wo decry the mission of the in- stitutional church in furnishing wholesale and elevating' amusement for the workingman and a resort in which he can spend a pleasant social evening ? • •"E•et," some one says, "how then do you distinguish between the Work and the social settlement a d the work of the 'institutional church?' ". They are diametrically different. They are as far apart as thearctic and the antarctic polos. They have entirely different purposes. The i ust t tutfon- al church believes that the "social gate" . should be the "strait gate", leading directly to the foot of the cross. While the social settlement is in nearly every instance managed by Christians and while' it is inspir- ed by Christian principles and mo- tives, it is compelled by the exigen- cies or its work to keep creed and denomination in the background. Its opportunities - of getting in touch with men and women of every faith and of no faith • would be restricted, if not altogther lost, if it • became known as a proselyting institution. The institutional church believes in being alS things to nil men so that Jesus Christ can be glorified. It is trying to carry out the command of Christ which says, "And 1 if I be lifted up will draw all [nen unto me." SABBATH DAY OBSERVANCE. Another means. of • benefiting the wot'kingnlan is to insist on the ob- servance of the Lord's day. The Sabbath day as a 'sacred rest day is to be a great factor in teaching" the laboring classes how rightly to spend their evenings. It is not only, as William E. Gladstone once expressed it, to be "the great conservator of physical health," but also the gold- en gate whicn shall open to let the, laboring man into the higher and nobler life of the Spirit. It is to be the foundation stone of the carred church. It is also to be the founda- tion stone of the pure home and of the pure place of evening entertain- ment. "But," again says some one to me, "why do you use the future tense? Why do you say, 'The Sabbath day is to bo the golden gate which shall open to let the laboring man into the higher and the nobler life of the Spirit?' Why do you not use the past tense?" Because, my friend, to a great extent. Avariec, with her dusky hanclhnaids. Blasphemy and 'wanton Pleasures, have stolen away our blessed Sabbath. 'When Agassiz first dandled upon our shores he was asked what most iinpressed hire about the nee world. "The quiet of the American Sabbath," was his re- ply. But, alas, alas, the American Sabbath is not now a day of rest and worship, but of work and pleas- ure seeking. In many large cities and in many country villagee the stores aro opened, and business, if not running at full blast, is being done at least with driving force. The barber shops and grocery stores and -drug stores and dry goods stores and liquor stores and billiard halls and theatres and often foundries and factories are open and know no dif- ference between Sunday and Monday or Saturday. "The question 'flow shall we keep Sunday?' is fast ac- quiring a secondary significance," once powerfully spoke Bishop Hunt- ington. untington. "Once the fear was that the Sunday might be broken. Now the anxiety is lest it be wholly lost. In a word, we are threatened with the forfeiture of an available Iran: chisn, the annulment of an ancient ,charter, and it is high time that we bestir ourselves." Yes, yes. Bishop Huntington well spoke the truth. Tho Sabbath day is to be a groat factor in tho future in teaching the laboring classes how to spend their evenings, because now the Sabbath day as a day of rest has been stolen away. It must be recaptured. It is high time that the labor unions of this lance and the church of Jesus Christ join hands to win back that Sabbatic treasure which Lord Bea- consfield—who, like Xing Solomon, was a Jetw—once declared "was the greatest blessing ever given by -God to man." A RESTFUL SUNDAY. The labor unions may logically base their claims upon physical. grounds. "Rest, rest! Give us mare rest!" cry the barber unions and the grocery clerk rntons and the drug stare clerk unions and all other unions. "Our men must have physi- cal rest for the eye, the hand, the brain, the heart; rest, and complete rest, on physical grounds." And, thank God, a beginning has already been made, for the labor unions are everywhere presenting their; just claims for a restful Sabbath. On the other hanh, the church of Jesus Christ must go into this bat- tle fora restful Sabbath, emphasiz- ing the spiritual as well as physical claims. The church of Jesus Christ must have at least one whole day per week to tell the people about God one whole day per week to t:.eac.•l& linen how they should be good husbands and good sons and good fathers; one day per week to teach a man his duty to his follow Men- and to his state; one day of every seven to teach a man how his life,may be spiritual and his.-de:ttlh glorious. "Blest! '.Rest[" A Sabbath for sae - red rest and worship should be tbo rry of the church. May this Chris- tian pulpit on this Labor Sunday help to be the ingans of leading the char and -ltd the labor unions to clasp stands in the holy conspiracy of cap- turing the Sabbath for Co& roe*. • tering it her physical and [mental and spiritual rest and invigoration, A consecrated and gospelized ballot box is also to be a great factor in teaching the laboring classes how to spend their evenings. This rneans that by the election of the proper health officials and district; attorneys and municipal representatives the better classes shall be able to go in- to the city slams and clean out the vileh, formations and accumulations of rtlt THE uricnowNI;U ECfl G, But some one again interrupts met "In these charges against the city tenements, are you not slandering our laboring classes? You surely do not compare the American array of labor with those wild, desperate crowds of frenzied men who, emerg- ing merying from the cellars and foul Ilauu1s of . Paris, started on their 'famous journey to Versailles, which ended In the death of Louis XVI. and Marie Antoinette, the haughty daughter of the Austrian war queen, Marie Ther- esa? Do you charge the laboring classes with being the physical and spiritual menace of the world?" Oki, 00, my brothel•, I am In no way slandering the laboring classes. I believe that some of the most clean- ly and moral and relined homes of the world are found among the lab- orers as well as among the capital- ists. But this is what I do assert: the laboring man is the uncrowned king of the American ballot box. What he votes is law. It rests upon his shoulders, to a great extent, how our cities and counties aro to be ruled, it rests with him whether the sewers shall be clean, whether the tenements shall bo made sanitary and not overcrowded, whether the 1,000,000 immigrants who landed in the country last year, some of whom come as the most degraded and ig- norant of European inhabitants, shall be made to observe decencies, and whether sin itself shall skulk and hide in the darkness. How the lab- oring man spends his evenings is de- cided to a greet extent by the ques- tion whether the laboring mall shall license sin and let leering eyed temp- tation stalk through our cities and towns, like the Iridian juggernaut which crushed its victims at eve':y turn of tate fatal wheels. But, ye laboring men, how are we to win in these three great move- ments which wo have been develop- ing? Flow are we to get the Holy Spirit inspired instituional church, and the Christian sabbath as a day for rest and worship, and a gospel ballot box to caro for our depraved? Shall we •ultimately or ever triumph in these three great movements for the purification of the laborer's ev- enings? Not in our own strength, but in the strongtb of Jesus Christ we shall, and we can do everything if we will only trust him and wo'k for him. THE So S. , eM1 9 INTERNATIONAL LESSON, SEPT. 2'1. Text of the Lesson, a Comprehen- sive Quarterly • Review. Lessou 1.—Tsrael asking for a king (I Sam. vitt. 1-10). Golden Text, I Sem. vii, 3, "Prepare your hearts unto the Lord and serve Him only. That which God had foreseen had conte to pass, and He who was truly their judge, their lawgiver and their king was rejected because they wanted a king like other nations. They determined to walk by sight and not by faith (Deet. xvii, 14, 15; isa. xxxiii, 22). Despised and re- jected is the story of mans treat-. went of God from the beginning, yet Ile loves us and longs to bless us. Lesson .LL --Saul chosen king (I. Sate. x, 17-27). Golden Text, Iso. xxxiii. 22, "Tho Lord is our king; Ile will save us." Notwithstanding the cutting words cf Samuel, "Ye have this day rejected your God, who Himself saved yon" (verse 19), they proceeded to elect a king from auhong themselves, and God gave then[ a man after, their own ,hearts, the finest looking man among them (verses 23, 24; chapter ix, 2), for man judges by outward appearance. Lesson III: Samuel's farewell ad- dress (T Sam, iii, 13-25). Golden Text, I Sam. iii, 24, "Only Fear the Lord and serve Hinz in truth with all your heart." • With a clear con- science before God and man Samuel gave theist his parting message and, like Joshua, urged them above all things to follow the Lord and servo Him sincerely, considering the great things T• Ie had done for them. Lesson IV.—Saul rejected as king (I. Satin. xv. 18-23). Golden Text, I Sane_ xv. 22, "To obey is better than sacrifice" If - we seek above all things to, please people we can- not serve the Lord (Gal. 1, 10. Luke xvi, 13) and Saul confessed that he feared the people and obeyed their voice (verse 24). Samuel said that in so doing he rejected the word of the Lord, and therefore the .Lord re- jected him (verse 26). Lesson V.—Sanmel anoints David (I Sant. xvi, 4-13). Golden Text, I Sam. xvi, 7, "Man looketh on the outward appearance,.but the Lord looketh on the.. heart." Having given them a 01au after their own heart and he preying a failure God will now give thorn a man after Pis own heart who will fulfill all His will (chapter xiii, 14; Acts xiii, 22). Lessors VI;—David and Goliath (1 Sara. xvii, 88-49) Golden Text, Boni. viii,• 8:1, 'If God be for us, who can be against us ?" David, having been anointed, awaits God's time and way to reach. the throne, doing meanwhile • just What his' hands found to do. .A. grand oppor- tunity being granted him to glorify God en the eyes of God's people as well as His enemies and having a great desire that all the earth may know that there is a God in •Ictrael, he goes forth. in His name, and " is victorious. Lesson VT,x,--Sn,txl tiles tri kill David (1. Sam. xvii., 5-16). Giolden Text, Ps. xlvi„ 1., "God in: our re- fuge and strength, a very present help ill trouble."

Lesson VIII.—David and Jonathan (I. Sam. xx,., 12-r3). holden Text, Prov. xviii., 24, There is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother." In the opening verses of chapter xviii., the love and conduct of the king's son toward the shepherd boy are very suggestive of the love of the Son of God to us in His empty- ing Himself for our sakes and cloth- ing us With Ilis own clothing and in seeking our welfare. The hatred of Saul is like the evil one. Lesson IX David spares Saul (I. Saul. xxvi., 5-12, 21-25). • Golden Text, Luke vi., 27, "Love your ene- mies; do good to them which hate you." An opportunity for David to reach the throne which was rightful- ly his and which seemed to Abishai to be God given, but David saw in it only a temptation fx•oin the evil one, and he resisted it. • Lesson X.—Death of Saul and Jonathan (I. Sanl.xxxi., 1-18). Gol- den Text, Prov. xlv. 12, "There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death." At last his time came, as David had said (I Sani. xxvi., 10). The Lord's "Hitherto shalt they conte, but no further" (Jab. xxxviii., 11), had been uttered and Saul is gone from the earth. One cannot but feel sorry to think of Jonathan slain in this way, and the lammcntation of David (II. Sam. 1, 18-27) is very touching. Lesson XI.—Daviel becomes king (II. Sam. if., 1-10). Golden Text, I's. cxxxiii., 1, "Behold how good and -how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!" Every purpose of the Lord shall be per- formed (Jer. 11., 20) in His time, and as truly as Joseph's dreams were fulfilled and David became king, first of Judah and later of all Israel (II. Sam. v., 1-5), so the words of Gabriel to Mary shall have a literal fulfillment in due time (Luke 1., 82, 33). -'-` Lesson XII.—Abstinence from evil, a temperance lesson (I. Pet. iv.. 1- 11). Golden Text, Eph. v., 18, "Be not drunk with wine, wherein is ex- cess." The evils of drunkenness as set forth in Scripture and seen in daily life need no continent beyond that of I. Cor. vi., 10, 'But there aro many who never were drunkards who are as sure of being shut • out of the kingdom as they, for though a mall be as moral and religious as Nicodeluus, he must be born again (John iii., 3, 5, 7). The evilest may and the most moral must be born from above. BIRTHIDAYS, IN JAPAN. Japan is the land of topsy-turvy, and so, perhaps, it is only to be ex- pected that individual birthdays— with the exception of that of the Emperor-- are not taken any notice of, but a sort of general birthday of everybody altogether is celebrated with great rejoicing. There are two of these general birthdays, one for each sex. The stale birthday, which is known as the "celebration of the boys," occurs on the third day of the third month, and the "celebra- tion of the gills" takes place on the fifth day of the 'fifth month. These days are general holidays for the young. All studies and work gener- ally are put aside, and boys and girls respectively receive presents ac- cording to their station. The birth- day of the Emperor, or Tea -o, as he is more properly styled, is also a general holiday for the Japanese everywhere. The houses are all dec- orated with flags, and in the evening the streets are gay with the lights of innumerable colored lanterns. In the morning the highest autherittes go' to the palace to offer their con- gratulations in person, and the low- er degrees offer them vicariously to their superiors. All the Japanese would, somehow or other, congrntu- late their monarch on having added another year to his age. SPOKE. TOO SOON.
