TALMAGE on NEWSPAPERS.
Their Cylinders the 'FRONT.' Wheels Of the Lords
Chariot.
New York Sun

DR.. Talmage took two texts
yesterday morning for his sermon
about the newspapers. One was,
and the wheels We're full of eyes.
He said: What but the news
paper printing presses have all
their wheels full of eyes? Al!
other wheels are blind. NE man.
ufacturer's wheel sometimes rolls
over the operative fatigued in
every nerve and muscle and bone,
and sees nothing. But the news
paper press has sharp eyes, keen
eyes, eyes that look mp and down,
far sighted and near sighted, that
take in the next street and the
next hemisphere eyes of criti,
cism, eyes of investigation, eyes
that sparkle with health, eyes
giaring with indignation: eyes
tender and loving, eyes frownlrg
and suspicious, eyes Of hope, blue
eyes, black eyes, green eyes, sore
eyes, historical eyes, literary eyes,
ecclesiastical eyes, eyes Of all
sorts
DR.. Talmage's second text Was,
For all the Athenians and stran-
gers which were there spent their
time in nothing else but either to
tell or hear some new thing Dr..
TaImage said That text gives
the cry of the world for u news
paper. In proportion as men be-
come wise they become lnquisi-
tive, not about small things, but
about greater things, The great
question thunders, What is the
news?' There Is a newspaper
in Pekin, China, that has been
published every week for thou"
sand years, printed or silk. Rome
answered the question with the
Act0 Diurn0. France answered it
when her physicians wrote out
the news for patients. England
answered it by publishing an &C
count of the Spanish Armada, and
it's newspaper press went on in
creasing until the battle OF Water
loo, which decided tho destinieS

icled in a description Of a third OF

question when Benjamin Harris

elors are styled men who have

on the other hand, the bachelors
extol their state as one OF perfect

their stockings, sew buttons on

that they may have Somebody
as q married man once said, TO

Who strews flowers on the mar

the tombstone that a six weeks

goes and gets married again-she
does! Who has wood to split,

do, the young ones to wash, and
the servants to look after? The
