BROOKLYN, March 5, 1893.—A most
striking and characteristic sermon1 was
preached by Rev. DJ. TaIrmige to a great
audience in the Tabernacle to -day; the
subject announced being "Twenty to
Seventy." The text selected was Psalm
90: 10: "The days of our years are three
score and ten."
The seventieth milestone of life is here
planted as at the end of the journey. A
few go beyond it ; multitudes never -reach
it. The oldest person of modern, times
expired at one hundred and sixty-nine
years. A Greek, by the name ;of Strays -
ride, lived to one hundred, and thirty-two
years. An Englishman, by the name of
Thomas Parr, lived one hundred and fifty-
two years. Before the time of Moses, peo-
ple lived one hundred and fifty. years, and
if you go far enough back, they lived fiye
hundred years. Well, that was necessary,
bemuse the story of the world inust come
down by tradition, and it needed long life
safely to transmit the news of the past. If
the generations had been shet-lived, the
story would so often haxe changed lips that
it might ell have gone astray. But after
Moses began to write it all down, and
parchment told it from century to century,
it was not necessary that people should
live so long in ordet to authenticate the
• events of the past. If, in our tiineepeople
lived only twenty-five years, that would
not affect history, since it is put he print
and is no longer dependent on tradition.
Whatever your age, I will to -day directly
address you, and I shall speak to those
-Iwho are in the twenties,. the thirties, the
!forties, the fifties, the sixties, and to those
who are in the seventies and beyond.
First, then, I accost those of you who are
in the twenties. You are full of expecta-
tion. You are ambitious—that is, if you
amount to anything—for some kind of suc-
cess, commercial, or mechanical or profes-
sional, or literary, or agricultural, or social
or moral. If I find someone in the twenties
without any sort of ambition, I feel like
saying, "My friend, you have got on the
wrong planet. This, is not tbe world for
Iave you made your choice of poorhouses ?
You will nevor be able to pay for your
cradle. Who is going to settle for your
board ? There is a mistake about the fact
that you were born at all." But supposing
you have ambition, let me say to all the
• twenties, expect everything through Divine
t manipulation, and then you will get all you
you. You are going to e .in le way.

disappointed in not seeing the battlefield of
Borodino. Why was there fought such a
battle at that small village? It was seventy
nsiles from Moscow. Why that desperate
struggle in which one hundred and twenty-
five thousand Frenchmen grapple with one _
hundred and sista; thousand Russians, and
thirty thousand dead Frenchmen and fifty-
two thousand dead. Russians were left 011
the field ? It was because the fate of
Moscow, the sacred city of Russia, was de-
cided there -decided seventy miles -away.
And let me tell you,
people of the thirties,
you are now at the Borodino, waterloo will
resound its successes or its moral disasters
clear on into the seventies, if you live to the
three score and ten of the text.
Next I accost the forties. Yours ie the
decade of discovery. I do not mean the
discovery of the outeide but the discovery
of yourself. No man knows himself until
be is forty. He over-estimates or under-
estimutes himself. By that time he has
learned what he can do or what he cannot
do. He thought he had commercial genius
enough to become a millionaire bue now
he is.satisfied to make a comfortable living.
He thought he had rhetorical power that
would bring him to the Unttedo States
Senate; now he is content if he can suc-
cessfully argue a common case before a
petit jury. He thought he had medical .
skill that would make him a Mott or a
Grosse or a Willard Parker or a Sims; now
he finds his sphere is that of a family phy-
sician, prescribing for the ordinary ail-
ments that afflict our race. He was sail-
ing on in a fog, and could not make a
reckoning, but now it clean; up enough to
allow him to find out his real latitude and
longitude. He has been climbing' but now
he h is go e to the top of the hill"and he
t
take a long breath. He is half way through
the j urney at least, and he is in a position
to look backward or forward. He has more.
good sense than he ever had. He knoivs
human nature, for he has been cheated
often enough to see the bad side of it, and
• he has met so many gracious and kindly
and splendid souls he also knows the good
side of it. Now, calm yourself. Thank
God for the past, and deliberately set your.
compass for another voyage. You have
chased enough thistledown. You have
blown enough soap bubbles. You have
-seen the unsatisfying nature of all earthly
things. Open a new chapter with God and
the world. This decade of the forties ought
to eclipse all its predecessors in worship, in
usefulness and happiness. "Forty" is a
great word" in the Bible. God's ancient
people were foaty years in the wilderness,
Solomon and Jehoash reigned forty years.
When Joseph visited his brethren he was
forty years old. Oh, this mountain -top of
the forties. You have now the character
you will probably have for all time and all
eternity. God, by his grace, sometimes
changee a marfeafter the forties, but after
that a man never changes himself. Tell
me, Oh, men and women who are in the
forties your habits of thought and lite, and
I will tell you what will forever be. I
might, make a mistake once in a thousand
times, but not more than in that propor-
tion.
My sermon next accosts the fifties. How
queer it looks when in writing your age you
make the first of the two figures a "5."
This is the decade which shows what the
other decades have been. If a young man
has sown wild oats, and he has lived to this
Lime,- he reaps the harvest of it in the fifties,
or if by necessity he was compelled to over -
toil in honest directions, he is called to
settle up with exacting nature sometimes
during the fifties. Many have it so hard in
early life that they are octogenarians at
fifty. Sciaticas and rheumatism and neur-
algias and vertigos and insomnias have their
playground in the fifties. A man's hair be-
gins to whiten, and although he may have
word spectacles before, now he asks the
opticen for No. 14 or No. 12 or No. 10.
When he gets a cough and is almost cured
he hacks and clears his throat a good
while afterwerds. Oh, ye who are in
the fifties, think of it 1 A half cen-
tury of blessing to be thankful for,
and a half century isubstracted from
an existence which, ins- the most marked
cases of longevity, hardly ever reaches a
whole centatcy. By this time you might to
'be eminent for piety. You have been in so
many battles, you ought to be a brave
soldier. You have made so many voyages,
you ought to be a good sailor. So long pro-
tected and blessed, you ought to have a soul,
full of doxology. • In Bible times in Canaan
every fifty years was by God's command it
year of jubilee. The people did not work
that year. If property had, by misfortune,
gone out of one's possession, on the fiftieth
year it came back to him. If he had fooled
it away, it was returned witaiout a frrthing
to pay. If a man had been enslaved, he
was in that year emancipated. A peumpet
was sounded' loud and clear and ledg, and
it was the trumpet of jubilee. They shook
hands, they laughed, they congratulated.
What a time it was, that fiftieth year 1 .
My sermon neXt accosts the sixties. The
beginning of that decade is more startling
than any other. In his chronological jour-
ney, the man rides rather smoothly over
the figures "2" and "3" and "4" and "5,"
but the figure "6" gives him a big jolt.
He rays: "It cannot be that I am sixty.
Let me examine the old family record. I
guess they made a mistake. They got my
name down wrong in the roll of births."
But no, the older brothers or sisters remem-
ber the time of his advent, and there is
some relative a year older and another
relative a yeer younger, and sure enough
the fact is established beyond all disputa-
tion Sixty! Now, your greatest danger is
the temptation to fold up your faculties
and quit. You will feel •a tendency to
reminisce. If you do not look out you will
begin almost everything with the words,
"When I was a boy." -But you ought to
make the sixties more memorable to God
and the truth than the fifties or the
forties or the thirties. You ought
to do more during the next 1 ten
years than you did in any thirty years
of your life, because of all the ' ex-
perience you have had. You have com-
mitted enough mistakes in life to make you
wise above your juniors. Now, under the
accumulating light of your past experiment-
ing, go to work for God as never before.
When a man in the sixties folcie up his
energy and feels he has done enough, it is
the devil of indolence to which he is sur-
rendering, and God generally takes the
man at • his word end lets him die right
away. His brain, that under the tension
of hard work was active, now sudd.enly
shrivels. Men, whether they retire from
secular or religious work, • generally retire
to the grave. No well man has a right to
retire. The world was made for work.
There remaineth a rest for the people of
God, but it is in a sphere beyond the reach
of, telescopes. The military charge that

meet you while you are in the twenties.
You are laying out yoar plans and all jrour
life in this world and the next for five hun-
dred million years of your existence will be
affected by those plans. It is about eight
o'clock in the morning of your life, and you
are just starting out. Which way are you
going to start? Oh, the twenties !
"Twenty" is a great word, in the Bible,
Joseph was sold for twenty pieces of silver.
Samson judged Israel twenty years. Solo-
mon gave Hiram twenty cities. The flying
roll that Zechariah saw was twenty cubits.
When the sailors .on the ship on which
Paul sailed eounded the Mediterranean Sea
it was twenty fathoms. What mighty
things have been done in the twenties.
Romulus founded Rome when he was
twenty. Keats finished life at twenty-five.
Lafayette was a world-renowned soldier at
twenty-three. Oberlin accomplished his
chief work by twenty-seven. Bonaparte
was victor over Italy at twenty-six. Pitt
• was -prime minister of England at twenty-
two. Calvin had completed his immortal
"Institutes" by the time he was twenteosix.
Grotius waii Attorney -General at twenty-
four. Some of the mightiest things for Pod
and eternity have been done in the twenties.
As long as you can put the figure "2" be-
fore the other figure that helps describe
your age I e have high hopes about you.
Look out for that figure "2." Watch its
continuance with as much earnestness ail
you ever watched anything that promised
you salvation or threatened you demolition.
What a critical time, the twenties! While
they continue you decide your occupation
and the principles by which yeti will be
guided. You make your most abiding
friendships. • You arrange your home life.
You fix your habits. LordeGod Aimighty
for Jesus Christ's sake have mercy on all
the men and women in the twenties. -
Next I accost, those in the thirties. You
are at an age when you find what a
tough thing it is to get recognized and
established in your occupation or pro-
fession. Ten years ago you thought all
that was necessary for success was to put •
on your shutter the sign of physician or
dentist, or attorney, or • •broker, or agent,
,and you would have plenty of business.
How many hours you sat and waited for
business and waited in vain, three persons
only know—God, your wife and yourself.
Oh, the thirties ! Joseph stood before
Pharaoh at thirty. David waa' thirty years
old when he began to reign. The height of
Solomon's temple was 'thirty cubits.
Christ entered upon his active ministry at
thirty years of age. Judas sold Hini for
'thirty pieces of silver. Oh, the thirties!
What a word suggestive of triumph or
disaster. Your decade is the one that will
probably afford the greatest opportunity
for victory, because there is the greateat
necessity for struggle. Read the world's
history and know What are the thirties for
good or bad. Alexander the Great closed
his carreer at thirty-two. , Frederick the
Great made Europe tremble with his
armies at thirty five. Cortes conquered
Mexico at thirty. Grantfought Shiloh
and Donelson when thirty-eight. Raphael
died at thirty-seven. Luther was the hero
of the Reformation at thirty -live Sir
Philip Sydney got through by thirty-two.
The greatest deeds for God aud against
Him were done within the thirties, and
your greatest battles are now and between
the time when you cease erpressiug your
age by putting first the figure "2" and
the time when you will cease expreseirg
it by putting first the figure "3." As it
is the greatest time of the struggle, I
adjure you, in God's name and by Ged's
grace, make it the greatest achievement.
My prayer is for all those in the tremend- .
oua crisis of the thirties. The fact is, that
by the way you decide the present decede
of your history. von decide all the foliqw.

kiudleci, your best hearing is ,yet to be
awakened, your greatest speed is yet
to be traveled, your gladdeet song is yet to
be sung. The most of your friends have
gone over the border and you are going to
join them very soon. They are waiting for
you. They are watching the golden shore
to see you land. They are watching the
shining gale to ser you come through. They
are standing by the throne to see you
moant.
Iao not .let us depend on brain and
manic and nerve. We want with us a
divine force mightier than the waters and
the tempests, aud when the Lord took two
steps on bestormed Galilee, pulling one
fopt on the winds and 'the other on the
waves, he proved himself mightier than
huericane and billows.
Iliere are so many diseases in the
woeld we want with us a divine
Physician ce,bable of combatting ailments,
and our Lord when on earth showed what
he, could do with catalepsy and paralysis
and ophthalmia and dementia. Oh, take
this supernatural into all your lives. • How
to; get ie ? Just as you get anything you
want. By application. If you want any-
thing you apply for it. By prayer apply
for the supernatural. Take it into your
daily business, Many a man has been able
to pay only fifty cents on the dollar, who,
if he had called in the supernatural, could
have paid one hundred cents on the dollar.
Why do ninety-eight men out of a hundred
fail in business? Because there are not
more than two men out of a hundred who
take God into `their worldly affairs. "But
behind the great unknown standeth God
within the shadows, keeping watch upon
his own."
A man got up in a New York prayer
meeting and said: "God is my partner.
I did business without him for twentyyearsa
and failed every two or three years, I
have been doipg business with ;Him for
twenty years and have not failed once."
Oh! take the supernatural into all your af-
fairs. I had such an evidence of the good-
ness of God in temporal things when I en-
tered active life,,I must testify. Celled to
preach at lovely Belleville in New Jersey,
I entered upon my work. But there stood
the empty pereanage, ane not a cent had I
with which to furnish it. After preaching
three or kale weeks the officers of my
church asked me if I did not want to take
two or three weeks' vacation. I said,
"Yes !" for I hod preached about
all I knew, but I feared they must be
getting tired of me. When I returned to
the village after the brief vacation, they
handed me the key of the parsonage, and
asked me if I did not want to go and look

pened, I put the key into the parsonage
door and opened it, and there was the' hall
completely furnished with carpet and pic-
tures and hat -rack, and I turned into the
parlors and they were furnished, the soft-
est sofas I ever sat on and into the study,
and found it furnished with book -cases,
and I went to the bedrooms, and they
were furnished, and into the pantry, and
that was furnished with every culinary
article, and the apice-boxes were filled,
and a flour barrel stood there ready t.0 be
opened, and I went down into the dining -
room, and the table was set and beautifully
furnished, and into the kitchen, and the
stove was full of fuel, and a match lay
on the top of the stove, and all f had to
do in starting housekeeping was to strike
the snatch. God inspired the whole
thing, and if I ever doubt His goodness,
all up and down the world call me an
ingrate. I testify that I have been in
many tight places, &id God aheays got me
out, and he will get you out of the tight
place.

sixties or the fifties or the forties. He who
passes into the forties has gone far beyond
the average of human life. Amid the un-
certainties take God through Jesus Christ
as your present and eternal safety. The
longest life is only a small fragment of the
great eternity. We will all of us 1100111 be
there.

My subject next acdeasts those in the
seventies and beyond. My word to them
is congratulation. You have got nearly if
not quite through. You have safely crossed
the seaof life and are about to enter the
harbor. You have fought at Gettysburg
and the war is over. Here and there a
skirmish with the remaining sin of your
own heart and the sin of the world, but I
guess you're about done. There may be
some work for you yet on the small orJarge
scale. Bismarck of Germany vigorous in
the eighties, The Prime Ministr of Eng-
land strong at 84. Heydon composing his
oratorio "The Creation" at 70 years of age.
