weekly addresses. through the news
papers, nearly 80. 200, 600 people, who
are impressed by what he says. be-
cause it is the result of continuous
observation and deep study.
DR.. Talmage has again and again
called attention to danger that
menaces every man and woman in
this country. In a recent sermon he
once more repeats those words of

oyer-work in business or social
duties, he SAYS:
.'Oh, what an altar, what a sacri-

physical health of a great multitude
is flung on this sacrificial altar. They
cannot sleep, and they take choral

fall back on their pillows and sleep
until they are awakened again by
conner or sudden rise in some
thing else. Their nerves gone. their
digestion gone, their Train gone, they
die"

get the pleasure out of life that we
should? Is there not some means by
which We can make life easiere
