Chieitgo, Aug. 3.-4 measage of
reverence and,appreelation for people
who have passed life's meridian is
eontaieed bz this discourse by Rev,
rrank De Witt Talmage on the text
Psalm. xeii, IA, "They shall bring
forth fruit in old/ age."
Old age ie a, haunting spectre. it
-has terrorized the generations past
more them even • the fear of death.
The most hated and feared of the
Grecian philosophers was he who tie -
ed to stand upon the street corners
of Athens frightening the paesersbY
with these eolenin words: "You -will
im an old men: Yoll Will be an old
woman." He frightened the passers-
by because most people do not want
to become old. They are afrain of
coining to the time when they will
be a burden to their children and
their Mends, They are afraid of the
time when their earning eapecity
shall, cease, for then, in the race of
life, they will be jostled and left fat'
behind by the speed and the, strength
of the younger generation. Tbey are
afraid of the years when. they will
haere to walk with a cane or eruteli
or it in an itivalid chair weitiug for
the time when the eoffin emeer will
nisi. their casket and tho undertak-
er will order their grave to be dug.
To show how depressed -some people
are over the fact of growing old I
would' read a letter which. I received
some time ago . from one .of muy
people': • •
Dear 111r. Talinage-Littst night in your
sermon you stated that this is the lige for
rourig men. You did not nave .thite to
speak one word favor of the usAulneie
of the "old• -people. I was sorry.. I knew
orne sitting neer •to me who would.. be
heavy hearted on account of their oici age
Dins .morning an aged member of yoer
ehurch called upon ine. He said be was
so depressed over your.remarks Ilist ulglit
Viet he could not sleep. With-tears.in his
eyes, he sald, "1 woluhr it old po.plv wl I
be wanted in heavee." Now, inv. deer pos.
tor, I would like you, if nosallile, to ere 1
a serinon upon the blessings of •old age.
1 t3 oula Ince you. to preach it sermon te
cheer up those who, have plui:seil tile feilitti
of their earthlx Ilfe and areWing down
the'. other side and' nearing the finding
place, of eternity.' You win, will you-aet?
. .
It is in answer to the•request
this letter that ,ant going to spea!t
. this morning.to the old folks. I Will
:gladly try. to refute the popular fal-
lacy that' old. ago Air 'the Ohriatian
