Again, my subject teaches us on
what a smallallowance,testiest
iniquity pats •a man. Yes, these
Philistines shut up the mines, and
then they took the spears and the
swords; then they took the black-
smiths, then they toe& the grind-
stones, and Lacy took everything but
a file. Oh, that is the way sin
works; it 'grabs •everything!
Oh, "the Way of the transgressoa
Is hard!" Ws cep is bitter. His
night is dara. His pangs are deep.
His end is terrific. Philistine iniqui-
ty says to that MELD: "Now, surren-
der to me and I will give you all
you want—music for the dance,
swift steeds for the race, imperial
couch to slumber on, 'and you shall
be refreshed with the rarest fruits,

lies. The music turns, out to be a
groan. The fruits burst the rind
with rank poison. The filigree is
made up of twisted reptiles. The
couch is a grave. Small allowance
of rest, small allowance of peace,
smell allowance of comfort. Cold,
hard, rough—nothieg but a file. So
it was with Voltaire, the most ap-
plauded man of his day.
The Scripture was his Jestbook,
whence he drew

the Jew.

Washington, Feb. 4. -- In this dis-
course Dr. Talmage shows how the
cause of righteousnees has lost maxey
Of its weapons and how they are to
be recaptured and put into effective
operation; text, 1 Samuel xiii, 19-21:
" Now there is no smith found
throughout all the land of Israel, for
the Philistines said, Lest the Heb-
rews make them swords or spears.
But all the Israelites went down to
the Philistines, to sharpen every man
his share, and his coulter, and his
ax, and. his mattock. Yet they had
a file for the mattock, and for the
coulters, and for the forks, and for
the axes, and to sharpen the goads."
What a galling subjugation for the
Israelites! The Philistines had
carried off all the blacksmiths and
torn down all the blacksmiths' shops
,and abolished the blacksmiths' trade
' in 'the land of Israel, The Philis-
tines would not even allow these par-
ties to work their valuable mines of
brass and iron, nor might they make
any swords or spears. There were
only two swords left in all the land.
yea, these Philistines went on until
they had taken all the grindstones
from the land of Israel so that if an
Israelitish farmer wanted to sharpen
his nlow or his ax he had to go ovee
to the garrison of the philistines to
get •it done. There was only one
sharpening instrument left, in the
. land, and that was a file, the farm-
ers and mechanics having nothing to
whet up the coulter, and the goad,
and the pickax, save a simple file.
Indus try was hindered and work
practically disgraced. The great
idea of these Philistines was tp keep
the Israelites disarmed. They nneht
get iron out of the bills to make
swords of, but they would not have
any blacksmiths to weld this iron. If
they got the iron welded, these would
have no grindstones on which to
bring the instruments of agriculture
, or the military weapons up to an
edge.
Oh, you poor, weaponless Israel-
ites, reduced to a file, how I pity
you! But these Philistines were not
forever to keep their heels on the
, neck of God's children. .Tohathan,
on his hands and knees, climbs up
a great rock, beyond wench were the
Philistines, and his armor bearer, on
his hands and, knees, climbs up the
same rock, and these two men, with
their swords, hew to pieces the Phil-
istines, the Lord throwing a great
terror upon them. So it was then:
SO it is noev. Two men of God on
their knees miehtier than a Philis-
tine hoat on their feet!
I learn, first, from this subject,
with the church of Clod at this day.
It e &lent is not developed. 11 one-
half of. its 'energy could be brought
out; it might take the public lingua
ties of the day by the throat zied
make them hite,the dust, If human
eloquence were consecrated to . the
Lord Jesus Christ, it would in a
few years persuade this whole earth
to surrender to God. There is
enough undeveloped energy in this
city to bring all the United. States
to Christ—enough of undeveloped
Christian energy in the United States
to bring the whole world to Christ,
but it is buried under strata of in-
difference and under whole mieuntains
of sloth. Now, is it not time for
the mining to begin, and the pick-
axes to plunge, and for this buried
metal to be brought oat and put into
the furnaces and be turned tato how-
itzers and carbines for the Lord's
host'?
The vast majority of Christians in
this day are es,elcas. The most ol
the Lord's battalion belong to the re-
serve corps. ale most of the crew
are asleep in the hammocks. The
most of the metel is under the hills.
Oh, is it not time for the church of
God to rouse up and understand that
we want all the euerisies, all the tal-
ent and all the wealth enlisted for
Chriet's sake? I liee the nickname
that the English. soldiers gave to
Blucher, the commander. They call-
ed him "Old I'orwards.'' We have
had enough retreats in the church of
Christ; let us have a glorious ad-
vance. _And I say to you as the gen-
eral said when his troops were af-

by birth and the sucicess he has achiev-
ed in busluess here, has enabled him
for some years past to make an annual

casual conversation with some friends
in the Bank of Montreal, recently,
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills happened
to be mentioned and Mr. Nappy said.
that if the pills effected many cures
as marvellous as one that had come
under his notice, be was not surprised
that they were so frequently the
theme of conversation. Asked later
by a reporter of the Recorder to give
the story, kr. Nappy readily consent-
ed to do so, and we give it practiell-
ly in his own words. "Don't be dis-
appointed when I tell you that the
cure did not occur in thia country "
said Mr. Nappy. As a matter of fact
it occurred in England and came un-
der my observation on the occasion of
two visits made to that country. Dur-
ing the summer of 1898 I paid a visit
to my old home in England an while
there visited William Ledger, a rela-
tion of mine livine at 45 Fitzvvilliam
street, Doncaster. In Ledger's family
was a little girl, Lilly, about. six
years of age who was absolutely help-
