means usefulness. But, how little any
of us or all of us accomplish in that di-
rection. We take twenty or thirty
years to get fully ready for Christian
work, and in the after part of life we
take ten or twenty years for the gradual
closing of active work, and that leaves
only so little time between opening and
stopping work that all we accomplish is
so little an angel of God needs to exert
himself to see it at all.
ALL THINGS ARE OF USE.
Nearly everything see around, be-
meath and above, in the natural world
suggests useful service. If there is moth
ing in the Bible that inspires you to use
fitness, go out and study the world
around you this springtime, and learn
the great lesson of usefulness. What

SUBJECT OF DR.. TALMAGE'S REGU-
LAR SUNDAY SERMON.

A Discourse Based on the Text, ''They
Took Branches of Palm Trees and
Went Forth to Meet Him''-Text, John
xii, Is.
BROOKLYN, April 10.-This day is rec
egnized as Palm Sunday throughout the
world, and that fact gave direction to
DR.. Talmages sermon. Among the
hymns sung was the hymn
Clad in raiment pure and white,
Victor palms in every hand.
Text, John xii, 10, ''They took branches
of palm trees and went forth to meet
him"
How was that possible? How could
palm branches be cast in the way of
Christ as he approached Jerusalem?
There are scarcely any palm trees in
central Palestine Even the one that
was carefully guarded for many years
at Jericho has gone. l went over the
very road by which Christ approached
Jerusalem, and there are plenty of olive
trees and fig trees, but no palm trees
that / could see. You must remember
that the climate has changed The palm
tree likes water, but by the cutting down
of the forests, which are leafy prayers
for rain, the land has become unfriendly
to the palm tree. Jericho once stood in
seven miles of palm grove. Olivet was
crowned with palms. The Dead sea has

Tho Gambler of ,4o.

The gambler of 40, says DR.. J.W. Palmer
in the February Century. was no vulgar
villain of the sordid stripe; he had his
aspirations; it was proud game he hunted,
and he put his own life into the chase The
law being to play fair or die, and the finest
distinctions of the meunl and tuum being
defined by the pistol, it is easy to understand
that there were honest gamblers in San
Francisco III 40; in fact, / will 20 SO far as
to assert that. as class, no others were so
strict and punctual in all their dealings. No
Investment was safer or more profitable than
loan to gambler; no rightful claim was
more easy Of collection. Nor were these
men, though most dangerous on certain
points OF professional prerogative, by any
means habitually quarrelsome. On the con-
trary, they were often the peacemakers of
fierce crowd whose explosive passions
we're stirred, constituting themselves an
extemporaneous vigilance committee in the
name of the law and order they had them
selves set uD for the occasion; and then woe
to the refractory.
