His subject is "Young Men Challenged to Nobility" and the text II Kings vi, 17, "And the Lord opened the . eyes of the young mate" • One morning - in Dothan a young then-' logical student was scared by finding him- self and Elisha the prophet,- upon whom ! he waited, surrounded by a whole army of enemies. But venerable Elisha was not • soared at all because he saw the mountains full of defense for him in chariots made of , fire, drawn by horses of fire—a supernat- ural appearance that could not be seen With the natural eye. So the old minister ' prayed that the young minister might see • them also, and the prayer Was answered, and. the Lord openedethe eyes of the yading man, and he also saw the fiery procession, looking somewhat, I suppose, like the Adirondacks or the Alleghenies in au- tumnal resplendence. Many young men, standing among tbe most tremendous realities, have their eyes half Abut or s_ entirely closed. May God grant that my sermon mayopett wide your eyes to your safety, your opportunity and your destiny! • The Charm of Home. A mighty defense for a young man is a good home. 'Some of my hearers look back with tender satisfaetion to their ear y home. It may have been rude and rusti hidden among the hills, and architect r upholsterer never planned or adorned i But all the fresco- on princely walls nev r looked so enticing to you as those rou h hewn rafters. You cin think of no pa k or arbor of trees • planted on fashionab e country seat so attractive as the plain bre k that ran in front a the old farmhouse ar4d - sang under the weeping willows. No ba red gateway adorned with statue of bron e and swung open by obsequious porter in full dress' has half the glory of the old swing gate. Many of you have a second dwelling place—your adopted home—that also is sacred forever. There von built the • menal laws so eatitionions that the nouy leas well as the soul demands this institu- -Glen. Our bodies are ,seven day decks that must be wouod up as often as that or they wiil run down. •Failure must conic r later to the man who breaks the . .Inspiration has called it the ay, and be who devotes it to the - sooner Sabbat Lord's world is guilty of robbery. God will not let th& sin go unpunished either in this world r the world to come. This is the stetement of a .nian who has broken this divine enactment: "I was en- gaged in, manufacturing on the Lehigh river. On the Sabbath I used to rest, but never egarded God in it. One beautiful Sabbath when the noise was all hushed, and the day was all that loveliness oould make it, I eat down on my piazza and. ,went to work inventing a now shuttle. neither stopped to eat nor drink till the s n went down. • By that time I had the ijivention ceimpleted. The next morning I exhibited It and boasted of my, day's grit, and was applauded. The shuttle v$Tas trlted and worked well, but that Sab- th dely's work cost me $30,000. We ranched out and enlarged; and the curse of heaven was upon me from that day on - Ward." • While the divioe frown must reit upon him w,ho tramples upon this statute, God's special favor will be upon that young man Who scrupulously observes it. This day, properly observed, will throw a hallowed influenee over all the week. The song and sermon and sanctuary will hold back from preaumptuout dins. That young man who begins the duties of life with either secret or open disrespect to the holy day, I ven- ture to prophesy, will meet with no per- manent successes. God's curse will fall upon his ship, his store, his office, his studio, his biddy and his soul: The way of the wicked he turneth upside down. In one of the old fables it was said that a Wonderful child was born • in Bagdad, and a magician could hear his footsteps 6,000 miles away. But I can hear in the foot- step of that young man on his way to the house of worshinstoday the step not only of a lifetime of usefulness, but the onoom- ing step of eternal ages of happiness yet millione of years away. An Infallible Defense. A noble ideal and confident expectation of approximating to it are an infallible de- fense.

The devil does nof so often attack the man who is busy wi h the pen, and the book, and the trowel, and the saw, and the hammer. He is afraid of those weapons. But woe to the man whom this roaring lion meets vvith. his hands in his pockets. Do not demand that your toil always be elegant and cleanly and refined. There is a certain amount of drudgery throrigh which we must all pass whatever be our ocoupati n. You know how men are sen- tenced a ertain number of yeas to prison, and aft r they have su:fgered and worked out the time, then they are allowed to go free. S it is with all of us. God passed on us the- sentence, "By the sweat of thy brow shalt thou eat bread." • We must en- dure our time of drudgery, and then, after awhile, we will he allowed to glo into co - parative liberty. We' must be willing to endure the sentence. We all know w at drudgery is connected with the beginning of any trade or profession, but this does not centinue all our lives, if it be the student's, or the merchant's, or the me- chanic's life.

The poet arranges the entire plot before he begins to chime the first canto of tingling rhythms. And yet, strange- to SHY, there are, men who attempt to build their character without knowing whether in the end it shall be a rude Tartar's tent or a S. Mark's of Venice—men who begin to write the intricate poem of their lives_ without knowing 'whether it shall be a Homer's "Odyssey" or a rhymester's botch. Nine hundred and ninety-nine men out of a thousand are living without any great life plot. Booted and spinaedand plumed, and urging their swift coureer in the hot- test haste, I aek: "Hello, man!! Whither away" His response is, "Nowhere." Rush info the busy shop or store of many a one and taking the plane out of,the man's hand or laying •down the yardstick, , say, "What, man, is all this about—so ,inuch stir and sweat?" The reply wil1 stumble and break down between teeth and lips. • Every day's duty ought only to be the filling up of the main plan of existence. Let men be consistent. If they prefer misdeeds -Ito correct courses of action, then let thein draw out the de- sign of knavery and cruelty and plunder. Let every day's falsehood and wrongdoing be added as coloring to the picture. Let bloody deeds red stripe the picture, and the clouds of a wrathful God hang down heavily over the canvas, ready to break out in clamorous tempest. Let the waters be chafed and froth tangled and green with irameaseirable depths. Then take a torch of burning pitch and scorch into the frame the right name for it—the soul's suicide. If one entering upon sinful di- rections would only in his mind or on pa- per draw 'out ineawful reality this dread- ful future, he would recoil from it and say, "Am I a Dante that by my own life I should write another 'Inferno?'" But if zou are resolved to live a life such aa God and good men will apprqve do not let it be a vague dream, an indefinite determination, , but in your mind or uPon paper sketch it in all its minutiae. You minuet know the changes to which you may be subject, but you may know what always will be right and always will be wrong.

A captain in ancient times, to encourage his men against the immense ols on the side of their enemies, eaid: "Cona, my men, look these fellows - in the face. 1 They are 6,000; you are 300. Surely the!match is even."' That speech gave them the victory. , Bo not, my hear- - era, diemayed at any -time by what seems an immense odds against you.

Indignant to the last degree, I went down to Patrick Campbell, chief of Brooklyn pence, saying that I was going to start that night for Ohio to have those villains arrested; and I wanted him to tell me how to make the ar est. He smiled and said: "Do not waste your time by chasing these men. Go hoir4e and do your work, and they can do y u no harm." I took his counsel, and 4d1 was "well.

Have God ou your si e, young nun, and all the combined • forces of earth and hell can do you no da lege. nd this lead me to say that tbe inight- jest defense for I young men is the posses- sion of religiou- principle. Nothing can take the place o it. Ile may have man- ners that would put to sheltie the graceful- ness and courtesy of a Lod Chesterfield. Foreign languages may drop from his tongue. He may be able to disuss liter- ature and laws and foreigo customs. He may wield a pen of unequaled polish and power. His quickness end tact may quali- fy him for the highest ;salary of the count - tog house. He may be as sharp es Herod and as strong as Sainson, with as fine locks as those which bung Absalom, still Ile is not safe from ccintamination. The more elegant his manner, and the more fascinating his dress, the more peril. Satan does not care for the allegiance of a cow- ardly and illiterate being. He cannot bring him into efficient service. But he 'Oyes to storm that castle of character which has in it the most spoils and trees - •tires. It was not soMe crazy craft creep- ing along the coast with a valueless cargo that the pirate attecked, but the -ship, full winged and flagged, plying between great ' ports, carrying its millions of specie. The more your natural 'teed acquired accom- plishments, the mere ,need of the religion of Jesus. That (leesnet cut in upon or hack up any sinoothness of disposition or behavior. It ives symmetry. It arrests that in the soul which ought to be arrest- ed and propel' that which ought to be propelled. ICBMs Up the gulleys. It ele- vates and transforms. To beauty it gives more beauty, to tact more' tact, to enthus- iasm of nature mere enthusiasm. When the Holy Spirit -impresses the imago of God on the heart, he daps not spoil the wives. If it all the mnititudes of young • men upon whern religimi has acted you could field one nature that had been the least damaged, I would yi ld thh3 proposi- tion. • Cling to the e oss. You may now have enough strength of character to tepol the various temptations to gross; wickedness which assail you, but I do not know in what strait you may be thrust at some future time: Nothing short sof the grace of the cross may then be able to deliver you from the lions.' You are not meeker than Mose, nor holier than David, nor more patient than Joli, end you ought not to consider yourfjelf invulnerable.
