CLANDESTINE MARRIAGES..
The third Of the serious Of sermons on
seThe Marriage Ring, was delivered by
Dr. Talmage to his Brooklyn audience
Sunday. The subject Of this sermon was
g Gland ndestine Marriages." and the text,
Proverbs, x, II and 18: "Stolen waters
are sweet, and bread taken in secret is
pleasant. But he knoweth not that the
dead are there" The speaker held that
the kink in human nature to sometimes
do what we are forbid den not to do, is at
tributable to the indiscretions of the first
pair in the garden of Eden. ssTell COM
pany, says the speaker, ssthat they may
look into any twenty rooms of large
house except one, and their chief desire
is to see that one, though all the others
were picture galleries and that a garret. If
there were in region Of mineral springs
twenty fountains, but the proprietor had
fenced in one well against the public, the
other one fenced in would be the chief
temptation to the visitors, and they
would rather taste of that than Of the
other nineteen z
The numerous abscondings and run
away marriages Of today the speaker at
tributed chiefly to the pernicious habit
OF novel reading. DO you think, said
pr. Talmage, Chat young women would
sit half q night reading novels in which
the hero and heroine get acquainted in
eusual way and carry on thrir increased
friend dliness until, with the consent Of
parents, the day Of marriage isappeiDted,
and amid the surrounding group of kin
dred the vows are taken? Oh, no! There
must be fight and pursuit and narrow
escape and drawn dagger, all ending in
sunshine M and parental forgiveness and
bliss unalloyed and gorgeous. In many
OF the cases Of escapade the idea was i'm
planted in the hot brain of the woman
by q cheap novel ten cents worth of un-
adulterated perdition." These evasions
of the ordinary modes of marriage are
deplored because the propositions nearly
always come from bad men-dudes, lib
ertines, gamblers and bigamists. They
have no character to lose. Clandestine
marriages invariably mean the degrade
tion of women, for a woman always drops
to the level Of the man whom she mar
ries.
Continuing these warnings in the same
strain, DR.. Talmage said. 4.
The truant marriages are also to he de-
plored, because in most instances they are
executed in defiance of parental wisdom
ana kindness. Most parents are anxious
for the best welfare of child. If they
make vehement and determined opposi-
ton, 1t is largely because it is match un-
ht to be made, and they can see for their
daughter nothing but wretchedness in that
appreciation, for instance, Of the certain
domestic demolition that comes from alco-
