OF Disaster Under the peting Of ages Of
suffering the great heart OF the world has
burst with woe.
Navigators tell us about the rivers. and the
Amazon and the Danube and the Mississippi
Rave been explored, but who can tell tho
depth or length OF the great river OF sorrow
made IN Of tears and blood rolling through
all lands and all ages. bearing the wreck OF
families aud OF communities and OF empires
-foaming. writing. boiling with the agon-
ies OF 5000 years. Etna ani CotopaNi ani
Vasuyius have been described. hut who has
ever sketchcd the volcano of suffering reach
ingup from its depths the lava aud the scoria
and pouring them down the sides 10 whelm
the natiOnsy Oh, II | could gather all tho
heartstrings. the broken heHrtstrings. into "a
harp would play on 1t a dlrsc such as was
never sounded.
Mvhologists tell us Of Gorg0u and Cen
taur and Titan, and geologistStelk US OF cN-
tinct species OF monsters, hut greater than
Gordon or mogatherium, and not belonging
to the realm Of fable, and not Of an extinct
species, is u monster with iron jaw and iron
hoofs walking across the nations, and his
tory and poetry and sculpture, in their at
tempt to sketch 1t and describe it, have
seemed TO sweat great drops OF blood.
But, thank God. there are those who can
conquer as this woman OF the text conquered
and say at is well! Though my property
my home be broken up. though my health
in bencdirtion, n specchlass benedction,
which pray Col may 20 down through all
the generations. Ii IS well OF course II
was well.
Again. this woman Of my text was great
in her application to domestic duties. Every
picture is II home picture. whether she IS
entertaining an Elisha, or whether she is Civ
ing careful attention TO her sick boy, or

! OF her property every picture in her case IS
! n home picture. Those who are not dIsc-
/ pies Of this ShunrmItu woman who. going
| out to attend to outside charities. neglect tho
/ duty of homc-the duty OF wIIc, OF mother
/ OF daughter. No faithlulncss in public ben.
/ efactiOn can ever atone for domestic ncgH-
Cence.
/ There has been many a mother who by in
/ dclatiSable toll has reared large family OF
! children. equipping them for the duties OF
/ life with good manners and large lntelIi-
gence and Christian principle, starting them
| out, who has done more for tine world than
many another woman whose name has
sounded through all tho lands and MI the
/ centuries.
