CoPYrIght MS, by tAsatoorica,n I'rees Alilechte Washington, May 1. -u -Thar discourse of Dr. Talmage isrevolutiohary for good in families and churches end nations and especially apprepriate for these times; text, Acts xvii, 6, "Tease that have turned the worldupeide down are come hither also." There is a wild, bellowing mob arouna the house of Jason in Thessalonica. What. has the 'man done so greatly to offend the people Ile has been entertaining Paul and his coinrades. The 'nobeuirotind the house andicry: "Bring out those turbu- lent preacheeel They are interfering with dur busbaems! They are ruining our re- ligion! They are actually turtling the world uPlide down!" , The °MeV Was true, for there le noth- hag that so interferes with tin, there is nothing so -ruinous to every form of- testablished.iniquiey, theirs bp nothing that -Ma'am% tetideney to tura the world up- side down as our glorious Christ1anit7. The fact is that the world now is wrong side up, and it needs to be turned upside Olen in order that it may be right side up. The time Was when mop wrote books entitling them "Apologies For Christian- ity." I hope that day has passed. We want no more apologies for Christianity. Let the apologies be on the part of those whotcle not believe In our religion. We do notlrean to make any compromise in the m tter. We do not wish to bide the fact teat Christianity is revolutionary and that its tendency is to turn the world upside 'dosen. Our religion hne often been misrepree welted as a principle of tear* and mildness and fatidiousnesa, afraid of crossing peo- ple's prejudiced, afraid of makinia some- body mad, with silken gloves lifting the people up from the ehurclb pew into glory, as though they were Bohemian glass, so very delicatethat with one touch it may be demolished forever. Men speak _or religion as though it were a refined imbeeility, as though it wore a spiritual chloroform thee the people were to take until the sharp cutting of life were over. The Bible, so far from this, represents the religion of Christ as robust and brawny,—raneacking and upsetting 10,000 things that now mem, to be settled on firm foundations. I her some man in the house say, "I thought religion was peace." This ip the final resule. A men's - arm is one of Place. Two men Conte, and with greet effort put it back to the socket. It goes back with great pan. Then it gets well. Our World is borribly disordered and out of joint It must come under an omnipotent surgery, beneath whistle there will be pain and anguish before there can come perfect health and quiet. I proclaim, therefore, in the name -of niy Lord Jesus Christ—revolution! The Religion of the Bible. The religion ef the Bible will make a revolution in the family. Those taings tbat are wrong in the faintly circle will be overthrown been, justiee and earl -pony will take the piece. The bus. band will be the head Of the housenold only when he is fit to be. I know a man who spends all- the money be maltes•in drink, as well as all the money that his wife make, mid sometimes legs the obi!. droll's' clothes for ruin. Do Yalu tell me that be is to be the -head at that house- hold? If the wife have more nobility, mom courege, niers oensisteneY, more of all that is right, ihe sball have the supremacy. You say that tbe Bible says that the etife is to be the subject of the husband-. I blow it, but that is a hus- band, not a masculine caricature.. There is no .human Ofdivine-law that ',mikes a weenan subordinate to a -man- unworthy of titer. When Christianity comes into domestic circle, I. evill give the dominance, to that one who is the Inost worthy of it. As religien CMOS in at the front door, Mirth and laughter will not go Out of the back door: It _win not hopple the chil- dren's feet,. John will laugh just es loud, and -George will jump higher than he ever did before. It will steal from the little one neither ball nor bat nor hoop nor kite. It will establisha family eller.: .Angels will haver over le Ladders of light will reach doivn to it.. The glory of heaven wilpon it. Tho books of rememieranee will record it, and tides of everlasting blessedness will pour front. it. Not such a family alai* as rou may have seen where the prayer is lohg and a long ehapter Is read, with tedieus ex- planation, and the exerofse keeps on until the children's knees are sore, and their hacks ache, and their patience is lost, and leer the seventh time they have count- ed all the rungs in the chair, lett I mean a family altar such as may have been seen in your father's house. You may Mite wandered fax off in the paths of sin and darkness, but you have never forgotten that family altar where father and mother knelt haportuning God for your soul. That is a memory that a man never gets over. There will be a hearty, Joyful.. family altar in- every domestic circle. You evill not - have to go fax to find Hannah rearing her titaeptiel for the temple or a graedelother apis instruot• ing her young Timothy in theeknowledge of Christ, or a Mary and Mertha. and Lazarus gathered in fraternal and sisterly affectfore or a table at which 'Jesus slit, as at that of Zacohens, gee a home in which Jesus dwells, as in the house of Shnon the tanner. The religion ef Jesus Ohnst, coming into the domestic circle, will overthrow. -all jealousies, all jangl- ings, and peace and order and holiness will take possession of the home. "Is rto Honest ?" Again, Christianity will produce a revolution in commercial circles. Find me 50 merchants, and you find that they have 50 standards of what is right and wrong. You say to some one about merchant, ke honest?" "Oh, yes," the man says, "he is honest, but be grinds the faces of his clerks! He is hon est, but he exaggerates the value of his goods. He is honest, but Ile loans money on bond and mortgage with tbe under- standing that the mortgage canine quiet for ten years, but as soon airche gets the mortgage he records it and beetle a fore- closure suit, and the sheriff's Writ macs down, and the day of sale arrives, and away gees the homestead, and the credi- tor buys ib in -at half price." Honest? When he loaned the nionea, he knew that he would get the homesteaa at half price. Honest? But he goes to the fin -serene° Wilco to get a policy on his life and. tells the doctor that he is Well when he knows that for ten years he has had but one lung. Honest? Though he sells property _ by the map, forgetting to tell the pur- chaser that the ground is all under water, but it is generous in him to do that, for he throws the water into the bargain. Ah, my friends, there is but one stand: ard of the everlasting right and of the everlasting wrong, and that is the -Bible, and when that 'principle shall get its pry ender' our commeroial twines , I believe *et enekalf of them will go over! The rein will beelik at one and Id the end, 'inn IW1T 156 afar ti ifitighT. au - the way down to the docks. "What is the matter? Has there been a fell in gold?"' "Oh, no." ."Has there been a neer tare ift?" "_No.'' "Has there been a failure in crops?" 'No." "Has there been an um- -mountable panic'?" "No." .This is the.. scent: The Lord God has set up his throne .1 has Summoned the righteous add the judgment in the exchange. He vrieked to come before him. What was 1887!: A day of judgment! What was 1857? A day of judgment! What was the extrenie depression of twopiano ago? A • day of judgmenti Do you think that God is seine to wait until he has .burned tho World up beforeho rights these wrongs? I tell you, mete Every day is a day of judgment. The Fraudulent Man. The fraudelent Man piles up his gains, bend above bond, United States security above United States security, emolument above emolument•until his property has become a groat pyramid, and as he stands looking at it he thinks it can never be destroyed, but the 'Lord God comes and with his little finger Indict it all over. . - You build a house, and you put into it -A rotten beam.

Be. miserable for your iniquities in this life, and then go down and spend your eternity with thieves and horse jockeys and pickpockets." You have an old photograph of the eigns on your street. Why. .have those signs nearly all changed wi hin the last 20 years? Does the passin away of a generation account for it? CIh, no. Does the fact that there are hnndijodu of hon- est men who -go down every ,ear account for it? Oh, no. This is the.' secret: The Lord God has been walking !through the commercial streets of our 'great cities, and he has boon adjusting things accord- ing to the principle of eternal rectitude.

The religion of Jesus Christ will pro- duee a revolution in our churches. The aou-oommittal, do-nothing policy of the church of tiod will give way to a spirit of bravest conquest. Piety in this day seems to me to be salted down just so as to keep. It seems as if the church were chiefly anxious to take care of ieself, and if we hear 'of want and squalor and hea- thenism outside we say, "What a pity!" and we put our hands in our pockets, and we- feel around for a 2 -cent piece, and with great flourish we put it upon the plate and are amazed that the world. is not oonverted in six weeks. Suppose there were a great war, and there were 800,000 soldiers, but ell of those 800.000' soldiers, excepting ten men, were in their tent, or texturing their muskets or cook • lag rations. You would say, "Of course de/eat, must come in that ease." It is worse than that in the . church. Millions ef the professed soldiers of Jewell Christ ai cooking ratioes or asleep in their. teets, while only one man here and there goes out to do'hattle for the Lord. "But," says some one, "we are . estab- lishing a great many missions, and I think they will save the masses." No; they will not. Five hundred thousand of them will not do it. They are doing a magnificent work, but every mission chapel is a confession of the disease and weakness of the church. It is making a dividing tine between the classes. It is saying to the rich and to the well condi- tioned, "If you ean pay your pew rents, mime to the main audience room." It 18 saying to tho poor man: "Your coat is too bad and your'Shoes aro not good enough. If you want to get to heaven, you will have to go by the way of the mission chapel." The mission chapel has become the kitchen where the church does it sloppy work. There are hundreds and thousands of ohurches in this coun- try—gorgeously built and supported— that even on bright and sunshiny days are not half full of worshipers, tied yet they are building mission chapels, be- cause by some expressed or implied regu- lation the great masses of the people are kept out of tee main audience room.

I saw, in _some paper an account of a churoh in "Boston in whioh, it is said, there were a great many plain people. The next week the trustees of that church came out in the paper and said it was not so at all: "they wore elegant pcoplo and highly conditioned people that went there." Then I laughed. outright, and when I laugh I laugh very loutelly. "Those people," I said, "are afraid- of tho sickly sentimentality of the churches."

A Day ofr Great Revivals. . The day of wiiich I spea-k will be a day -of great revive* There will be such 6 time as there Was in the parish of Shots, where 500 souls 'were born to God in ens day—such time3 as were seen in ehim country when Eclwards gave* tbe alarm, when Tonneet rfreached, and Whitelield thundered. and J1dward Payson prayed; such times as s me of you remember in 1857, when the oice of prayer and praise was hoard in theater and warehouse and blackshop and factory and engine house, .and the. auctioneer's ory of "a half,- and a half, and a half," was drowned out by the adjoining prayer meeting, in which the people criedout, "Men and brethren, what shall we cal?" In those days; of which I am speaking the services of the church: of God will be more spirited. The ininisters of Christ, Instead. of being anxious about whethef they are going to lose their place in thdr notes, will geton- fire with the theme and pour the lining truth of God upon an aroused auditory, crying out to the righteous, "It 4(1,1110 Well with you," and tp)he wicked: "Wool It shall be ill with you." In those days the singing wile be very (1,4°cent from what it is 11 now..-- The muso will weep and wail and chant end trim ph. People then will not be afraid to o en their mouths when they sing. The inan with a cracked voice will risk it on' Windham" and "Orton- ville" and "Old Hundred:" Grandfather will find the piece for his grandchild in the hymnbook, or the little child will be speetacles for the grandfather. Hosanna • will meet hosanna and together go climb- ing to the throne, and the angels will hear, and God will listen, and the gates of heaven willrist, and it will be as when two seas eet—the wave of earth- ly song mingling with the merging anthems of the tree.

Well, - sir, that was what happened to that tramp. He was like the Ooin againet the flat palm. He rested against the hien* front end of that baggage -oar like a fit on a window pane. There wasn't any- thing below for hite to hang to. He WaS. just held there, as I •say, by that fore, . whioh oa,me from the fast forward inotioti of the train. Below him there was space and oar wheels. It was a pretty ticklish position.. I.want to tell you. No wonder the fellow roared and shouted- sind said as many pious things as he knew hoer, "and said them very loud.Of oourse be understood that when the train began to slow up for the Oroaha yard that fore* would dimo inieh end he wuld* drop down and be macerated. • "'Well, he was a -lucky- tramp.

But he couldn't budge - him. Then he got to reasoning, and -he saw they'd have to shut off and ease' down before the adhesive force of the speed would • let the inan be pried off. The engineer slapped on the air and threw het. over, and after two miles of ' easing thane got her to a pace that ad- mitted of loosening the fellow. "It was very interesting.

I Good Exampie for Doctor and Patient. A good true ssstory is told Of a San Francisco -woman )and a doctor With a conscience. The doctor performed a suc- cessful operation for a rich woman, and when asked for his bill, presented one for $50. The lady smiled and said: "Do you oonsider that a reasonable charge, consid- ering my cireumstances?" The doctor re- plied: "That is my charge for that oper- ation; your circumstances have nothing to do with it." The lady drew a check for $500 and presented it to him. He handed it baek saying: "I cannot accept this. My charge for that operation is $60." "Very well," the lady replied, "Kok) the check, and put the balance to my credit." .Some months after she re- ceived a long itemited bill, upon which was entered charges for treatment of var- ious kinds, rendered to all sorts of odds and ends of humanity, male and female, black and white, who had been mended at her expense. She was so delighted at it that she immediatelyplaced another check for $500 to his credit on the Sante terms, and it is now being earned in the same way. Wire Mats by the Foot. Amang the ourious things to be seen in. the hardware stores nowadays are woven wire door mats for sato by the yard, foot or inch. It is only a few years since the manufacture if the woven wire mat was begun, but these mats have - proved so effective_ as dirt catchers and so light and easily cleaned that their use has weed very rapidly.

The mats are woven in different widths and done up in rolls like earpet. Vegetables in Olden Times. 'Many of the vegetables in daily use on our dinner_ tables were known in very remote tithes.
