. .Nozions
Many make a failure of their Isart in
the drama of life through dissipation.
•They havseenough intellectual equiptnt
and goodnddress and geniality smboun ed.
But -they have a wine closet that contains
all the forces for their social and business
and moral overthrow. So fiar back as the
year 969 King Edgar of England made a
law that the drinking cups should have
pins' fastened at a certain point in the side,
so that the indulger might be reminded to
stop before he got to the bottom. But
there are no pins projecting from the sides
of the modern wine cup or beer mug, end
. the first point at which millions stop is at.
the 'gravelly bottom of their own grave.
Dr. Sax of France has ,discovered some-
thing which all drinkersought to know.
He has found out that alcohol in every
shape, whether of wino or brandy or beer,
contains parasitio life called bacillus poth-
-manic°. By a powerful microscope those
•livi g things are discovered, and when
you °aim strong drink you take them into
the tontach and • then into your blood
and,I getting into the crimson canals 'of
life, they go into every tissue of your body
and youe entire organism is taken poesee-
e'en. of. by these noxious infinitesimals.
.Whei In delirium tremens a man sees ev-
ery erne • of reptilian life, it seems it is
only these parasites of the brain in exag-
gera ed size. It isnot a hallucination that
the ictim is suffering from. He only sees
In tl4oroom what is actually crawling and
rioting in his own brain. Every time you
take strong drink you swallow these mag -
and every time the imbiber of alcohol

again t the footlights of conspiouity, and
then taggering back into failure, till the
worla is impatient for their disappearance,
and I wimp and diabolic voices join in
hissing them off the stage.
Ma y also make a failure in the drama
of lif» through indolence. They are al-
ways eking calculations how little they
can o for the compensation they get.
Ther are more lazy ministers, lawyers,
dooto s, merchants, artists and farmers
than ave over been counted upon. The
community ie full of laggards and shirk-
ers. I can tell it from the way they crawl
along the street, from their tardiness in
meeting engagements, from the lethargies
'that seem to hang to the foot when they
lift it, to the hand when they put it out,
to the words when they speak.

Is ten minutes before the time and has his

more failures in all occupations than you
have over suspected. People are too lazy

Women who, in the drama of 11f, take the
part that God assigned' them and then
, went aw y honored of men and iepplauded
, of the Iord Almighty. It, is about 60
years ag4 that In a comparathjely small
apartme t of the city a newly m rried pair
set up a home. The first guest invited to
that residence was the Lord Josis Chriat,
and the Bible given the bride on the day
of her spousal was the guidi of that
• household. Days of sunshine were fol-
lowed by days of shadow. Did you ever
know a Iome that for 60 year had no
vicissitude? • The young woman who left
her father's house for hor young husband's
home sterted out with a parentsl benedic-
tion and good advice she will ne er forgot.
, Her mother said to her the day efore the
• nsarrtag : "Now, my child, you are going

heartaches and the tremulous prayers by
the side of the sick child's cradle and by
the couch of this one fully grown. I The
neighbors" often noticed how tired she
looked, and old acquainances hardly knew
her in the street. But, without com-
plaint, she waited and toiled and endured
and accomplished all these years. • The
children are out in the world, an honor to
themselves and their parents. After
awhile the mother's last sickness comes.
Children and grandchildren, summoned
from afare come softly into th r room otio
by one, for she is too weak -to see more
than one at a time. She runs her dying
fingers lovingly through their hair and
tells them not to cry, and that she is going
now, but they will meet again in a little
while in a better world, and then kiss -
them goodbrand says to each, "God bleSs
and keep you, my dear child!" The day
of the obsequies comes, and the officiating
clergymten tells the story of wifely and
motherly endurance, and many hearts On
earth and In heaven echo the sentiment,
and as she is 'serried off the stage of this
mortal life there are cries of, "Faithfni
unto death 1" "She bath Idone what she
could!" while overpowerink all the voices
of earth and heaven is the plaudit of the
God who watched her front first to last,

But what became of the father of that .
household? He started as a young man in
business and had a small imam°, and hied-
ing got a little ahead sickness in the •fane-
ily swept it all away. He went through
all the business panics of 40 years, met
many losses 4nd suffered many betrayal's,
but kept rig t on trusting in God, whether
business was good or poor, setting his chil-
dren a kood example and giving them the
best of icounsel, and -never a praker did
offer fer all those years but they were
mentioned in it. He is old now and realties
it oannbt be .long before he must quit all
these scenes. But he is going to leave his
children- an inheritance of prayer and
Christian principles which all the defalca-
tions of earth can never toga, and as he
goes out of the world the church of God
blesses him, and the poor ring his doorbell
to see if he is any better, and his grave is
surrounded by a multitude who went on
foot and stood there before the procession
of carriages came up, and some say, "There
will be no one to take his place," and
others say, "Who will pity me now?" and
others remark, "He shall be held in ever-
lasting remembrance." And as the drama
of his life closes all the vociferation and• •
bravos and encores that ever shook the
amphitheaters of earthly spectacle were
tame and feeble compared with the long,_
loud thunders of approval that shall break
from the cloud of Witnesses in the piledtp
gallery of the heavens. Choose ye betw„, n
the life that shall ()lose by being hissed Off
the stage and the life that shall close antid
acclamations supernal and archangelle.
• Oh, men and women on the stage of life,
many of you in the first act of the drama,
-and others in the second, and some of you
in the third, and a few in the fourth, ared
here and there one in the fifth, but all of
you between entrance and exit,'I quote to
you as the peroration of this sermon tbe
most suggestive passage that Shakespeare
ever wrote, although you never heard it
recited. The author has often been claimed
as infidel and atheist, so the •quotatien
shall be not only religiously helpful to
ourselves, but grandly vindicatory of the
great dramatist. I quote from his last
will and testament:
"In the name of God, amen! I, Wil-
liam Shakespeare of Stratford-upon-Avon,
In the county of Warwick, gentleman, in
perfect health and memory (God be prais-
ed), do make this my last will and testa -
relent, in manner and forth following:
First; I comm end my soul into the hands
of God, my 'Creatoe, laming and assuredly
believing through the only merits of Jetrits
Christ, my Saviour, to be made partaker
of life everlasting.”
Sentimental Valuation.

be deems a -defect in our laws. "Except

our law sits down in a most prosaic; and
matter of fact manner en sentimental val-
ues. It is true that the rule of de -Imager;
uses the rather loose term 'articles of value,'
in describing What may be valued at more
than market price, but the court practie
caller limits this to fanuilyl portraits oe
heirlooms prized for their association with
the dead.. A man's family horse or his
pet dog, for instance, to lose which causee
real distress to the owner and his familen

damages will suffer only the price the ani-

by providing mirrors which will not break.
He simply employs celluloid where glass
was heretofore used. A perfectly tram -
parent, well polished celluloid plate re-
ceives a quicksilver backing like that of a
glass mirror. This backing is, in turn,
protected by another celluloid plate which
also mirrors, so that practically a double
mirror is furnished, lighter, cheaper and
more lasting than glass.
