vitas all the world to come and re- must he in a special oar, with your feet
on a Turkish .otboman and a band of
music on board the train. You do not
want to be in company with rustic
jacob arid Rachel and to be drinking
out of the eounkain where 10,000 sheep
have been drinking before you. You
will have to remove the obstacle of
pride or never find your way to the
well. You will have to come as we
came, •willing to take the water of
eternal life in any way and at any
hand wed 'in any kind of pitcher, cry-
ing out: "Oh, Lord Jesus, I am dying
of thirst! Give ane the water of eter-
nal life, whether in trough or goblet!
Give 'me the water of life! I care not
in what it comes to ane." Away -with
all your hindrances of pride :from -the
well's mouth!
Here is another man who is kept
back from this water of life by the
stone of an obdurate heart, which lies
over the mouth of the well. You have
no more feeling upon this subject thon
Lt God had yet to do you the first kind-
ness or you had, to do God the first
wrong. Seated on his lap all these
Years, his everlasting arms sheltering
you, where Ls your gratitude? Where
is your morning and evening prayer?
Where are your eonsecrated lives? I
say to you as Daniel Gold to Belshaz-
zar, "The God in whose hand thy
breath is, and all thy way, thou hest
not glorified." If You trea,ted every-
body as badly as you have treated God,
you would have made MO apologies;
Tea your whole life would have been
an apology. Three limes to -day you
have been seated at Cod's table. Spring,
summer, autumn ana winter he has
appropriately appareled. you. Your
health from Him, your eomPanion
from Mao your ell:ill:Irma from Hine
your 'home from Him, all the bright
eurrounaings of your lif.e from Him.
Oh. zna.n, what dost thou with that
hard heart? Caust thou not feel one

ut scene in Mesopotamia, beautifully
pastoral. A well of water of
great value in that region. The
flee& around about it white with
three flocks of sheep lying down
wateing for the watering. I hear
their bleating coming on the bright
ter and the laughter of young men
an maidens indulging in rustic re -
puttee. I look off, and I see other
110Oloi of sheep coining. Meanwhile
aseeob, a stranger, on the interesting
wand of looking for 2. wife, comes
tothe well. A beautiful shepherd-
ess comes to the same well. I see
her approaching, followed by her
fatiter's flock ot sheep. It was a
niemorable meeting. Jacob mar-
ried that shepherdess. The Bible
scoount of it is, "Jacob ktssed Ra-
chel and lifted up his voice and
wept." It has always been a mys-
tery to me what he found to cry
seurat! But before that scene occur-
re:1 Jacob accosts the shepherds and
asks them way they postpone the
Slaking of the thirst of these sheep
and -why tbey did not Immediately
proceed to water them. The shep-
herds reply to the effect: "We are all
good neighbors, and as a matter of
courtesy we 'wait until all the sheep
of the neighborhood come up, Be -
elites abet, this stone on the wellie
mouth is somewhat heavy, and sev-
eral of us take hold of it and push
it melde, and then the bite/tete and
tate troughs are filled and the sheep
axe satisfied. 'We eannot until all
tbe flocks are reentered togetlier and
till tbey roll the stone from the well's

Neseeee to e/ake your thirst at the town ,ecanfort!" For that reason I have relied
away the stone from the well's mouth.
Come, all ye -wounded of the flock, pur-
sued of .the -welves, come to tbe foun-
tain where the Lord's sick and bereft
Ones have -come. "Ale," says settle one,
"you are net old enough to understand
my sorrows. You have not been in the
world af. .)ng a,$, have, and you can't
talk to me about zny misfortunee in the
time of olcl age." Well, I may not have
lived as long as; you, but. I have been
a great deal among old people and I
know how they feel about their :fail-
ing. health and about their departed
friends and about the loneliness that
m
sometees strikes through their souls.
To lean on a prop for 50 years and
then have it break under yen! There
are only two years' difference between
the death of my father and mother,
After my mother's decease my father
used to go around as if looking for
something. He would often. go from
one room without any seeming reason
and go to another room, and tben he
would take his cane and start out, and
someone would say, 'Father, where are
you going?" and he would answer, "X
don't know exactly where I am going."
Always looking for something. Though
he was a tender hearted man I never
saw him cry but once, and that was
at the burial of my mother. After 60
years' living together it was hard to
part. And there are aged people to -day
who are feeling just such a pang as
that. I want to tell them there is a
perfect enchantment in the promises
of this gospel, and I come to them and
offer them my arm, or I take their arm
and I bring them to this gospel well.
Sit down, father or mother, sit down.
See if there is anything at the well for
you. Come, David, the psalmist, have
you anything encouraging to offer
them? "Yes," says the psalmist; "tbey
shall be fat and flourishing, to show
that the Lord Is upright. He is MY
rock, and there is no unrighteous-
ness in Him." Come, Isaiah, have
you anything to say out of your
Propbecies for these aged people?
"Yes," says Isaiah; "down to old
age am with thee, and to hoary
bairs will I carry thee." 'Well, if
the Lord Is going to tarry you, Yoll
ought not to worry much about
your ailing: eyesight and failing
limbs. But you say, "1 am so near
worn out. and I ant of no use te
God any more:' I think the Lord
allows whether you are of any more
