WHAT OF THE NIGHT?
The Ancient Division of the Night
Into Four Watches.
THE POWER OF A KIND WORD
Rev, Dr. Talmage Describes Scenes to Be
Witnessed in All Large Cities During
the Boars of .the 1,fight-Ganibling and
Drunkenness -A Terrible Tragedy in
Five Acts.
Entered according to Act of the Parliament of
Canada, in the year One Thousand Nine Hun-
dred and One, by Willem Belly, of Toronto,
at the Depariment of Agriculture, Ottawa.
Washington,a0ct. 13. -In this 'dis-
course Dr. Talmage describes some
of the scenes to be witnessed late at
'night in the great Cities and warns
the unwary of many perils; text,
Isaiah xxi, 11,tWatehmitn, what' of
the night?"
When night came down on Babylon,
Ninevah and Jerusalem, they needed
careful watching, otherwise the incen-
diary's torch Alight 'have been thrust
into the very heart of the'metropoii-
aan splender, or enemies, marching
from theehills,' might have forced
the gates. All night long, on top •o.f
the wall and in front of the gates,
• might be heard the measured step of
the' Watchman on his solitary beat;
silence hung in air, save.as-some
passerby raised the Question,
"Watchman, what of the night?"
It is to me a deeply suggestive and
solemn thing to see a man standing
guard by night. It thrilled through
me as at the gate of an arsenal in
Charleston the question once - smote
rine,
Who comes there?" followed by
the sharp mope mand te • 'Advance and
give the countersign." Every moral
teacher stands on picket or patrols
the wall as watchman. His work is
to sound the alarm, anct whether it
be in the first watch,. ill. the secon4
watch, in the third watch or in the
fourtle evateh to be vigilant until
the daybreak flings its "morning
glories" of e blooming, cloud across
the trellis of the Sky. •
The ancients divided their night
into four parts -the first watch from
6 to 9, the second from 9 to 12, the
third from' 12 to 3 and the fourth
from 3 to 6. I speak .now of the city
in the third watch, or from 12 to 3
o'clock. .•
I never weary of ,looking upon th
life of the city in the, first " watch
That is the hour when the -stores ar
closing. The laboring men, having
quitted the scaffolding and the shop,
are on their way home. It rejoices
me to give them my -seat in the city
car. They have stood and hammered
away all day. Their feet are weary.
They are exhausted •with the tug of
work. They are mostly cheerful. With
appetites sharpened on the swift
turner's wheel and the carpenter's
whetstone they 'seek tihe evening
meal. The clerks, too, have broken
away 'from the ,counter and with
brain .weary of the long eine of fig-
ures and the whims of those who go
a -shopping seek the face of mother
or wife and child. The streets are
thronged with youngmensetting out
from the great centres of bargain
making. Let idlers clear the street
and give right of way to the be -
sweated artisans and -merchants!
They have earned their bread and are
now on their way home to get it.
The lights in full jet hang Over 10,-
000 evening repasts -- the parents
at either end of the table, the chil-
dren between.: Thank God, ''who set-
teth the solitary in families!"
A few hours later and all the
places of amusement, good and bad,
are in full tide. Lovers of art, cata-
logue in hand, stroll thrOugh the gal-
leries and discuss the pictures. The
ballroom is resplendent with the rich
apparel of those who on either side
of the white, glistening boards await
the signal from the 'orchestra. Con-
cert halls are' lifted into, enchantment
with the warble Of One songstress or
swept out on a sea of tumultuous
feeling by the blast.of brazen instru-
ments. A beautiful ,and overwhelming
thing is the city in the first and sec-
ond watches of the night'.
But the clock strikes 12, and the
third watch has begun. The thunder
of the city has rolled out of the air,
The slighest sound cuts the night
with such distinctness as to attract
your attention. The tihkliug of the
bell of the street car in the distance
and the baying of the dog. The
stamp of a horse in the next street.
The slamming of a saloon door The
hiccough of the drunkard, The shrieks
of the steam whistle five miles away.
Oh. how suggestive, my friends, the
third watch of the night! •
There are honest meo passing up
and clown the street. Here is a. city
missionary, who' has been carrying a
scuttle of coal to that poen: 'family
in that dark place. Here is, an un-
dertaker going up the steps of a
building from which there conies a
bitter cry, which indicates that, the
destroying angel has smitten the
firstborn. Here is a minister of re-
ligion who has been giving the sac-
rament to a (lying Christian. Here
is a physician., passing along in great
haste. Nearly all the lights , have
gone oue in the dwellings, for it is
the: -third watch of the night. That
lightin the window is the light of
the watcher, for the medicinemust
be administered. and ,the fever- must
be watched, tend the reselese toseing
off of the coverlid must. be resisted,
and the ice must be kept on the hot,
temples, and the perpetual prayer
must, go up from heart s soon to be
broken. •
Oh, the third Watch of the night!.
What a, staipendous thoueht. - a'
whole city at rest! Weary arm j cc -
pt ring for to -morrow's toil. lrot
brain being , cooled off. ii gid
muscles. relaxed Excited nerves
sonthech The white hair of
-the octogenarian in e thin drifts
across -the • pillow, • fresh fall of
flakes on snow already fallen. Child-
hood, with its dimpled handS
thrown -out on the -pillow and with
every breath taking in a new store
of fun and frolic. Third watch of
the night! - God's slumberless eye
will look. Let one great WAN° of
refreshing slumber roll Over - the
heart- of the great town, submerging
care and anxiety and worrimentand
pain. Let the city sleep.
But, my friends, be not deceiVed.
There Will be to -night thousaads
who. will not sleep at all. Go up
that dark alley, and be cautious,
where you tread lest you fall over
the prostrate form of a drunkard ly-
ing- on his, own' doorstee. Look
41;MC
aumee you, lest' you feel the garrot-
eh'etihug. Look through the broken
windOw pane and see what you' can
.see. You, say, "Nothing." Then.
listen., • What i's it? "God help
Us?" No footlights, but tragedy
ghastlier and mightier than Ristori
or Edwin Booth ever enacted. No
light, --no fire, no bread, no hope.
Shivering lea, the cold, they have had
no food for twenty-four hours. You
say, "Why don't they beg?" They
do, but they get nothing. You soy,
"Why don't they deliver themselves
over to the almshouse?" Ah, you
would not ask that if you ever heard'
the bitter ciy of a man or a child
When. told he must go to the alms-
house. "Oh," you say, "they are
vicious poor and therefore they do
not 'deserve our sympathy!!' Ate
they vicious So much more need
pity. The Christian
they your
poor, God helps them.
Pas e on, through the alley. Open
the door. "Oh," you say, "it is
locked!" No, it is not locked. It
has never been locked. No burglar
would be tempted to go in there to
steal anythiag. Only a broken chair
stands against the door. Shove it
back._ Go in. Strike a match. Now,
look.' Beastliness and rags. See
those glaring eyeballs. Be careful
now what 13,0U say. Do not utter
any insult, do not utter any suspi-
cion, if you galue your life. What is
that red mark on the wall? It is
the mark of a murderer's hand!'
Look at those two eyes rising up
out of the darkness and out from
the straw in the eorner, coming to-
ward you, and as they come near
you your light goes out. Strike an-
other match. Ah, this is a babe,
not like thoee beautiful children pre-
sented in baptism. This little one
never smiled. It never will. smile.
A fiewer flui g 'on an awfully barren
beach. 0 eavenly• Shepherd, fold
that little ne in thy arms! Wrap
around you your shawl ',or your
coat tighter, for the cold wind
sweeps theotigh.
Strike. another match. Ah, it is
•pOssible that the scarred and hruisin
ed face of that young woman ever.
was looked into by maternal tender-
ness? Utter no scorn. Utter no
harsh word No ray of hope has
dawned on that brow for -many a
year. No ray of hope ever will
'dawn on that brow. But the light
has gone out. Do not strike anoth-
er light. It would be a mockery to
kindle another light in such a place
as. that. Pass out and pass down
the street. Our cities are full of
such' homes and the worst time the
third watch of the night.
rIn the third watch of the night
gambling does its worst work. What
though the hours be slipping away
'and though the wife be waiting in
the cheerless . home? Stir up the
fire; bring on more drinks; put up
more stakes! That commercial -
:house that only a little while ago
put on a sign of copartnership will
this winter be wreckedon a .gain -
bier's table. There will be many a
money, till that will spring a leak.
In the third watch of the night pass
down the streets of these cities, and
you hear the click of the dice and
the sharp, keen 'stroke of the balls
on the billiard table. At these
places 'merchant princes dismount,
and legislators, tired of making
' laws, take ne respite in breaking
them. All glasses of people are rob-
bed by this crime - the importer of
foreign silks, and the dealer in Chat-
ham street pocket- handkerchiefs. The
clerks of thw,store take a hand af-
ter the shottegie are put up, and the
officers of the court while away their
time while the jury is out.
In Baden-Baden, when that city
was the greatest of all gambling
'places on earth, it Was no unusual
thing the next morning, in the woods
around about the city, to find the
suspended bodies Of suicides. What-
ever be the splendor of surround-
ings, there is no excuse for this
crime. The'thunders of eternal de-
struction roll in the deep rumble of
that gambling tenpin alley, and as
men collie out to join the long pro-
cession of sin all the drums of death
beat the dead -march of a thousand
souls.
In the third Watch of the night
also drunkenness does its worst. The
drinking will be respectable at 8
o'clock in the evening, a little flush-
ed at 9, talkative and garrulous at
10, at 11 blasphemous, at 12 the
hat falls off, an 1 the man falls to
the floor, asking for more drink.
Strewn through the drinking saloons
of the city, fathers, husbands, sons,
as good as you are by nature, per-
haps better. In the high circles of
soeiety it is hushed up. A mer-
ehant prince, if he gets noisy and
uncontrollable, is taken by his fel-
low revelers, who try to get him to.
bed or take him home, where he falls
flat in 'the entry. Do not wake up
the children. They have had dis-
grace enough. Do not let them
know it. Hush it up. But some-
tinies it cannot be hushed up when
the rum touches the brain and the
man becomes thoroughly. frenzied.
Such a one came home, having been
absent for some time, and during
his absence his wife died,. end she
lay in the next room, prepared for
the obsequies., and he went in and
dragged her, by the locks and shook
her out of her shroud and pitched
her out of the window. Oh, when
rune touches the brain yOu cannot,
hush it up! e
My frienceee you see all around
about you the need that something
radical' be dene. You do not see the
worst. In the midnight meetings la
London a great ,multitude have been
saved: We want a few hundred
Christian men and women to come
down from he highest circles ,of so-
ciety to toil amid these wandering
and destitute ones and kindle up a
light in the dark alley, even the
• gladness-. f heaven. Do not go
wrapped in your fine furs and from
your N'''ell Ii led tables with the idea
that pious alk is going to stop the
gnawing of an empty stomach or to
warm stock ngless feet. Take bread,
take raimei t, take medicine, as well
as 'take pr L yer. There is a great
deal of Con mon sense in what the
poor• woma said to the city mis-
sionary wh it he was, telling her how
She ought to love God and serve
him, "Oh," she said, "if you were
as poor and cold as I am and as
hungry you could think of nothing
else!"
A great deal of givhat is called
Christian work goes for nothing, for
the simple- reason it is not practi-
cal. As after the battle of Antie-
tam a man got out of an ambulance
with ,a bag of tracts,' and he went
distributing the tracts, and George
Stuart, on of the best Chetereen
meg in tins country, said to him:
"What are you distributing tracts
for now'? There are .3,000 'men
bleeding eo death. Bind up their
Wounds, I and then dietribute the
tracts." We want More common
sense in Christian ve6rk, taking the
bread -of this life in one hand and
the bread of the next life in the oth-
er hand- -No such inapt work as
that. do :le by the Christian man
who, during the civil mar, went into
a, hospital withtract's,. and, coming
to the bed of s, man whose legs had
been amputated, gave him a tract
on the sin of dancing!
I could give you the history in a
minute of one Of the best friends I
ever had. Outside of my own family
I never had a better friend. He wel-
comed me to my home at the west.
He was of splendid personal appear-
ance; buthe had an ardor of soul
and a warmth of affection that. made
me love him like a brother. le saw
men coming out of the saloons and
gambling hells, and they surrounded
my friend, •and they took him at the
, weak point - his social nature -
and I saw him going down, and I
had a fair talk with him, for I never
yet saw a man you could not, talk
with on the subject of his- habits if
you talkedwith him in the Tight
way. I said to him, "Why don't
you give up your bad habits and
become a Christian?" I remember
now just how he looked, leaning
over his counter, as he replied: "I
wish I _could. Oh, sir, I should like
to be a Christian, but I have gone
so far astray I can't get back!" So
the time went on. .After awhile the
day -of sickness came. • I' was sum-
moned to his sick bed. I hastened.
It took me but a very few moments
to get there. I was surprised as I
went in. I saw him in his ordinary
dress, luny dressed, lying on top of
the bed. I gave him my hand, and
he seized it convulsively and said:
"Oh, .how glad I am to see you! Sit
down there!" I sat down, and he
said: "Mr. Talmage, just where
YOU sit now mymother sat last
night. She has . been dead twenty
year. Now, I don't want you to
think I am out of my mind or that
I am superstitious, but, sir, she sat
there last night, and she said,
'Roswell, "I wish you would do bet-
ter, I wish you would do better.'
said: 'Mother, I wish I could do
better. I try to do better,- but. I
'can't. Mother, you used to help
me; why can't you help me now?'
And, kir, I got out of bed, for it
was a reality, and I went to her and
threw my ,arms around her neck, and
I said: `Mother, I will do better, -
but you' must help. I can't do this
alone.' " I knelt and prayed. That
night hie, soul went to the Lord who
-made it.
But there is a man who will not
reform. He says, "I 'won't re-
form." Well, then, ,how many acts
are there in • a tragedy? I believe
there are five acts ina. tragedy.
Act first of the tragedy: A young
man starting off from heme; parents
and sisters weeping to have him go;
wagon rising over the hill; farewell
kiss flung back. Ring the bell and
let the curtain fall.
Act' the second: The „marriage al-
tar; full organ, bright lighten icing
white veil trailing through the
aisle; prayer and congratulation and
exclamation of, "How well she
looks!"
Act the third: A woman waiting
for staggering steps: 1)1 d ear•ments
stuck into the broken window pane;
marks of hardship on the face; the
• biting of the nails of bloodless fin-
gers; neglect and cruelty and de-
spair. Ring the bell .and let the
curtain fall.
Act the fourth: Three graves in
a dark place - grave of the child
that died .for lack of medicine,' grave
of the Wife that. died of a broken
heart, grave of the man that died of
dissipation. Oh, what a blasted
heath with three graves! Inenty of
weeds but no flowers... Ring the bell
and let the curtain drop.
Act the fifth: A .destroyed soul's
eternity; no light, no music; black-
ness of darkness forever. But I can-
not look any longer. Woe! woe! I
close my eyes to this last act of the
tragedy. Quick, quick! Ring the
bell and -let the curtain drop. "Re-
joice. 0 young nain„ in thy youth,
and let thy heart rejoice in the days
of thy youela but know thou that
for all these things Cod will bring
you into judgment." "There is a
Way that seenteth right to a man,
but the end thereof is death."
The Barefoot Fad.
The latest sensation in Dublin is
the adoption by a number of society
people of the "barefoot" fad for
their children. Considerable atten-
tion is aroused now and then in the
streets about the fashionable squares
by the aPpearance of smartly clad
children, walking barelegged and
barefooted, all but a slight sandal.
The ideae is that the children are
made hardier and less likely to take
cold by this exposure. - Dublin
Freeman's Journal.
- Love of Christ,
Trope and fear are Gospel motives
-but only for children in the faith.
The true motive of the Gospel is per -
nal affection working in constant
fellowship of life and aim. He who
lives with Christ finds it easier to
live for Christ. This is the motive
power which makes hard duty pos-
sible. This is the perfect loVe which
casts out fear.
NERVOUSNESS.
A State of the System That.Calls For
Medical Treatment.
What may be called a minor degree of
neurastheuia is the indefinite condition
called "nervousness," Safferers from it
are not incapecitated for, business or so-
cial duties, nor are they seriously ill, like
the confirmed neurasthenic, yet their ex-
istence is often a pitiable one. They are
restless and unable to fix the mind on any
subject, sleep is disturbed, and often
there is an indefinable fluttering sensa-
tion 'within the chest.
They may have a good appetite and not
feel ill physically. And herein lies their
greatest danger, for they persuade them-
selves that all they need is a nerve tonic
of some sort or a little stimulant, and
they dose themselves with various rem-
edies, one after another, or begin to drink
a little wine or spirits.
The stimulation makes them feel better
for a time°, but the inevitable reaction
comes when they, feel worse than before
and run again and again to the bottle of
tonic or drink until they become con-
firmed drug takers or dram drinkers., and
which is worse it would be hard to Say.
The fatal mistake which these persons
make is in assuming that they are not ill
Pbreicallr. but 010 "nervous." In al.
most every such case a careful examina-
tion by a physician will bring to light dis-
order of seine organ and show (brit the
patient is physically ill and should be
treated accordingly: It is not nerve ton-
ics or stile:whines that he needs, but a
course of medical treatment-dietie, hy-
gienic and perhaps medicinal.
In the majority of cases it will be found
that the digestion is at fault. There may
be no evident symptoms of dyspepsia -
no nausea, distress after eating or eructa-
tions -yet the food may be scarcely di-
gested at all. The stomach does its work
perhaps in the preliminary- digestion of
the food, but the intestines, where the as-
similation of nutriment is or should be
effected, are at fault.
The food is not elaborated into such
shape that it can be taken up by the lac -
tee] vessels and carried to the nerve Lind
other structures that need constant re-
newing, and so the tissues suffer froin
partial starvation.
• Furthermore, the imperfect intestinal
digestion results in the manufacture of
various poisens, which are absorbed and
cause a morbid condition of the nervous
systeM.
Treatment should be directed to the in-
testinal trouble and not to the "nervous-
ness," which will speedily disappear when
once the causal condition has been cared.
TREE CULTURE.
In setting out an orchard keep together
all of the same variety.
A dead limb is a source of disease, and
it shows lack of vitality in the tree.
Never crowd the fruit trees. Give
plenty of room for air and eunshine.
If the cherry tree is set in ordinarily
rich ground, it will not need fertilizing.
The willow, elm, poplar or locust should
never be planted too close- to wells or
drains.
Rubbish of any sort should not be left
in the orchard. It harbors vermin and
insects.
A tree with an open head is not as like-
ly to lie attacked with mildew as one that
is crowded.
-Pruning when the tree is growing or in
leaf checks growth. A feeble tree should
never be pruned after growth begins.
In taking up a tree for transplanting
the greatest care must be exercised to se-
cure as much of the root system as Dossi-
b!e.
Anything in the nature -of lye will de-
stroy the apple tree borer or -the young
borer before -it penetrates the bark very
fan but once well in the bark a wire must
be used.
Deep holes in planting a tree are a dis-
: advantage, especially in a clay subsoil. It
is not wise to have a tree stand in a well
from which the water will not settle
away. The soil for trees needs to be well
drained.
4.11 wounds on trees are the better for
being painted, tarred or covered with
some substance to keep out water. Then
the bark covers over the wound little by
-little, and no rotting of the inner wood
takes place.
Honeist Norway.
One day, while traveling in Norway, a
Chicago girl lost her diary during a drive
.through one of the pretty little interior
valleys and was much concerned. She
asked the hotel keeper to post a notice
and offer a reward, but he declined to do
so on the ground that such a method of
advertising lost' property was not cus-
tomary in Norway and would be consid-
ered very bad form, He promised, how-
ever, that he would have an announce-
ment made from the pulpit of the church
on the next Sunday, which would be very
much better, because everybody would be
there, while comparatively few people
would see a notice in the hotel.
Oratorical Style Obsolete.
"Miss Minnie, It has been on my mind
a long time to say something to you, but
with the natural distrust that is a part of
my being I still hesitate. Yet I. am per-
suaded that you must have anticipated
what I am about to say. It is hardly
imaginable that my intentions can have
been misunderstood. It cannot have es-
-coped your notice that my partiality for
your society" -
"Pardon me for interrupting you, Mr.
Weill -done, but that isn't the style nowa-
days. If you expect to propose to a girl'
before the processien gets clear past geu,.
you'll have to harry." -

Poisons in the Blood
Bring Pain and Beath
Uric Acid the Cause of Serious Or-
ganic Changes, Fatty Heart,
Bright's Disease, Enlarged Liv-
er. and Brain Diseases.
Foul poisons left in the blood by de-
fective kidneys form what is known as
uric acid.. Its presence may be detect-
ed by such ailments as dyspepsia, asso-
ciated elith irregular bowels and
scanty, leighly-colored urine. There
are pains{ of a neuralgic nature in the
back and In the joints, sleepless nights,
dizziness, headache, depressed spirits
and impaired memory.
Fatty Heart, dropsy, apoplexy and
heart disease are the usual termination
if uric acid is left in the blood. It is a
serious matter tp neglect these symp-
toms. The home treatment prescribed
by Dr. A. W. Chase has proven suc-
cessful in many thousands of cases.
Mr. A. W. Parson, Martinville, Que,,
writes: -"I was a sufferer from kidney
disease and bladder trouble for 13 years,
and had a constant desire to urinate
with its accompanying weakness. Medi-
cine prescribed by a skilful physician
only gave Me temporary relief. The
trouble would recur at very awkward
times. I was persuaded to try Dr.
Chase's Kidney Liver Pills. I obtained
relief after one dose, and before r had
finished the first box telt better than 1
had for many years." Dr. Chase's Kid-
