Dr. Tal- mage has selected as his subject for to- day a topic.of the greatest interest and timelivess, viz., "Comfort for Business Men," the text being Iasiali,40:2—"Spea.k ye comfortably to Jerusalem." - What an awful six weeks in commer- cial circles! Tho crashing of banks from San Francisco to New York, and from Ocean to 'ocean The complete uncer- tainty that has halted all styles of busi- ness for three Months,' and the pressure of the money. Market for the last year have put all bargain -makers at their wit's end. Seine of the best men in the land have faltered; Men whose hearts are en- listed in every good work, and whose hands have blessed every great charity. The Church of God can afford to extend to them her sympathies, and plead be- fore heaven with . all availing prayer. The schools such men have established, the churches they have 'built, the asy- lums and beneficiary institutions they have fosteredSwill be. their eulogy long after their banking institutions are for- gotten. Stich men can never fail. They have their treasure i in banks that never break, and will be millionaires forever. The stringent** of the money market, I am glad to ;sav, begins to relax. May the wisdom cif Almighty God come down upon our !National kLegislature at their convening next month atWashing- ton, and such result S be reached as shall restore confidence4and revive trade and multiply prosperities. Yet not only now in the time of financial disaster, but all through life our active business peo- ple have a struggle, and I think it will be appropriate and useful fer me to talk about their trial and try to offer some curative perscriptions. . In the first place, I have to remark that a great many of our business Imen feel ruinous trials and temptations com- ing to theta from small and limited capi- tal in business. It is everywhere under- s•tood that it takes now three or four times as Much to do business well as once it did. Once a few hundred dollars were turned into goods—the merchant would be his own store sweeper, his own ealeeman,i his own bookkeeper; he would manage all the affairs himself, and. everything would be net profit. Won- derful - changes have come; costly ap- paratus, extensive advertising, exhorbi- taut store rents, heavy -taxation, expen- sive agencies are only parts of the de - Maud made upon our commercial inen; and when they have found themselves in such Circumstances with small capital they have sometimes been tempted to run against the rocks of moral and finan- cial destruction. This temptation of -limit- ed capital has ruined men in two- ways. Sometimes they have shrunk down under the tempation. They have yielded the battle.before the first shot was fired. At the first hard gun they surrendered. Their knees knocked together at the fall of the , auctioneer's hammer. They • blanched at the financial peril. They did not understand that there is such a thing as heroism in merchandise, and that there are Waterloos of the counter, and that a man can fight no braver bat- tle with the sword than he can with the yardstick. Their souls melted in them because sugars were up when they wanted to buy, and down when they wanted to sell, and unsaleable goods were on the shelf, and bad debts in their ledger.The gloom of their countenan- ces overshadowed even their dry goods and groceries. Despondency, coming from limited capital, balasted them. Others have felt it in a different way. They have said: "Here I have been trudging along. I have been trying to , , • - h. be honest all these years. I find it is of no use. New it is make or break." The small craft i that could have stood the stream is pat out behind the lighthouse on the great sea of speculation. Stocks are the dice with which he gambles. He bought for • a few dollars vast eracta of western land. Some man at the East, living on a fat homestead, meets this gambler of fortune, and is persitaded to trade off his estate here for lots ; in a westei n city with large avenues and costly palaces and lake steamers smoking at the wharves, and rail trains coming down with lightning speed from every direction. There it is all on paper. The city has never been built nor the railroads constructed, but evenythine points that way and the thing will be done as sure as you live. And that is the process by which many have been tempted, through limitation of capital, into labyrinths from which they eould not be 'extricated. I would not; want to chain honeet enterprise. I Would nht want to block up any of the avenues for honest accumulation that open before young men. On the con- trary, I would like to cheer them on and rejoice when they reach the ?oat; but se. lieu there are sueh multitudes of men goieg to ruin fdr this life and the life that is to conic, Illrough wrong notions of what are lawful spheres of enterprise, it isttia• duty of the ministers of religion, and time friends of all young men, to utter a plain, emphatic, lintniStak- ohle protest, There are the influences HOUSE FOR SALE.—On North Street, Egmend- vine, about five minutes walk from the church a frame house, one story and a half, with seen rooms, very comfortable and beautifully finished.

How often is it that the store and home seem to clash, but there ought not to be any collision. It is often the case that the father is the mere treasurer of the family, a sort of agent to see that they have dry goods and groceries. The work of family gov- ernment he does not touch. Once or twice in a year he calls the children up on a Sabbathafternoon when he has a half hour he • does not exactly know what to do with, and in that half hour he, disciplines the children, and chides them and corrects their faults, and gives them a great deal of good advice, and then wonders all the rest of the year that his children do not do better, when they have the wonderful advantage of that semi-annual castigation. The family table. which ought to be the place for pleas- ant discussion and cheerfulness, often beeoines the place of perilous expedition. If there be any blessing asked at alit, it is cut off at both ends, and with the hand on the carving knife. die counts on his fingers, making eetunates in the interstices (If the repast. The work done the . hat goes to the head, and he starts down the :street, and before the family has risen' from the table he has bound up another bundle of goods, and says to the custemer: "Anything more I can do for you to -day, sir?' A man has More responsibilities than those which are discharged by putting competent instructors over his children, and giving them a drawing -master and a- music - teacher. The physical culture of the child will not be attended to, unless the father leeks to it. He must sometimes lose his dignity. He must unlimber his joints. He must sometimes lead them out to their sports and games. The parent, who cannot forget the severe duties of life sometimes to fly the kite, and trundle the hoop, and chase the ball, and jump the rope with his children, ought never to haVe been tempted out of a crusty and unredeemable solitariness. If you want to keep your children away from places of sin, you can only do it by making your home attractive. You may preach sermons and advocate reforms and denounce wickedness., and yet your children will be captivated by the glitter- ing saloon of sin, unless you can make your home a brighter place than any other place on earth to theme Oh! gather all charms into your house. If you can afford it, bring books,- and pictures, and cheerful entertainments to the house-' hold. But. above all, teach those child- ren, not by half an hour twice a year on the Sabbath day, but day after day; and every day teach them that religion is a great gladness, that throws chains of • gold about the neck, that it takes no spring from the foot, no blitheness from the heart, no sparkle from the eye, no ring from the laughter, but that • "her • ways are ways of pleasantness and all - her paths are peace." I sympathize with the work being clone in many of our cities, by which beautiful rooms are set apart by our Young Mens Christian As- sociations, and I pray God to prosper • them in all things.

You know that aearly edh com- mercial busineeees are over -done in this day. Smitten with the love of quick vein, our cities are crowded with mea resolved to be rich at all hazards. They do not care how money collies. Our beet merchants are thrown into compe- tition with men of more means and enlees cnsciece, and if an opportunity of ac- cunnelation be neglected one hour some- one else picks it up. From January to Dueember the etruggie goes on. Nights gives no quiet to limbs tossing in restlees- nese, nor to a hrein that will not stop th iii king. The etre:oils are harrowed he- I'll:min:try loss, and flushed with imagin- ery gains. Eve -u the Sabbath cannot Again, I remark that a great many of our business men are tempted to put ,the attainment of money above the value of the soul. It is a grand thing to have plenty of money. The more you get of it the better, if it comes honestly and go usefully. For _the lack of it, sickness dies without medicine, and hunger finds , its coffin in the empty bread tray, and nakedness shivers for lack of clothes and fire. When I hear a man in canting. tirade against money—a Christian man —as though it had no possible use on earth, and he had no interest in it, I come almost to think that -fie heaven that wOuld be appropriate for him would be an everlasting poorhouse I While, my friends, we do admit that there is such a timing as a liiNe-ful use of money— a profitable use of money—let us recog- nize the fact that money cannot satisfy a man's soul, that it cannot glitter in the clerk valley, that it cannot pay' our fare across the Jordan of death, that it cannot unlock the gate of Heaven. There are men in all occupations who seem to act as though they thought a pack of bonds and mortgages could be traded off for a title to Heaven, and as though_ gold would be a lawful tender in that place where it is -so conimon that they make - pavements of it. - Salvation by Christ is the only salvation. Treasures in Heaven are the only incorruptible treasures. Have you ever ciphered out in the rule of loss and gain the sum: "What shall it .profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his soul?” However fine your apparel, the. Winds of death will flutter it to rags. Homespun and a threadbare coat have sometimes been the shadow of coming robes made white in the blood of the Lamb. The pearl of great price is worth more than any gem you can bring from the ocean. than Australian or Brazilian mines strung in carcanet.. Seek _after God; find His righteousness, and all shall be well here; all shall be well hereafter. But I must have a word with those who during the present commercial cal- amities have -lost heavily, or perhaps lost dam back the tide of anxiety: for this wave of worldliness daehes ciear over the churches and leaves its foam on Bihles and prayer -books.
