Talk of the Town.
AT THE CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH.

The Congregational pulpit was occu- pied on Sunday morning by Rev c. F. Stimson of New Haven, who gave ser mon of much power on ''The facts and significance of the curse, or what thorns and missiles are eor." Mir Stimson chose his text from Gen. 3 IT, "Cursed is the ground for thy sake.'' Man in the be- ginning found sthe world cursed-bur- dened, fulf of inexplicable hardships, toll and sweat. The only interpretation which was tenable seemed to be that given in Genesis. In later Jewish his tory the Preacher in. .Ecclesiastes and the other Old Testament writers, whether poets or prophets-find the same curse ridden world. The preacher cries, 'sall is vanity and a striving after wind" Job cries :-
 "Man is born unto sorrow as the.sparks fly upward"
 Or again;-
 tMan that is born of 8 woman is of ffewdags and full of trouble;
 He cometh forth like flower and is cut down;
 He feeth also as a shadow and continueth not" .a.ss.. r4 s.
 There is 8 pcssimistic ring through all. the ages of history, and gloomy an- swering echo in the heart-experience of every son of man. Many hundred years later the masterful spirit of Paul groaneth out the heart-cry of universal man-"Oh wretched man that I am? who shall deliver me out of the body of this death" But To! the answering shout of universal hope. "I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord !" But in Christ's life of toll, of thorns and thistles, of sorrow and sweat; whether we consider his environment at birth, his boyhood toil, or his infinite labors and anguish in later life. The 40 days temptation and fasting, the whole ca- reer of his public ministry, consummated by the thrice repeated deprecatory pray CT in Gethsemane, the anguish of that bloody sweat, the crowning horrors of the crown of thOrns, the crucifxion, whereat the world quaked it's sympathet- ic protest, and all heaven drowned. The whole shows obedience to the same law of life. We are warranted on all,sides in finding the curse on men. But we must interpret the curse alphabetically, con- structively. We must remember that the curse was pronounced by God-in the whole fabric of creation and in the whole constitution of man-for his sake. | We can see the beneficent working of this law of development in races of men historically viewed, in individual experiences in own day, our own town, our own families, our own souls. The law to which Christ submitted in per feet obedience to the will of God, which made Paul count it all joy when tribula- tions come; which made Job confess: | "I know that thou canst do all things, that | no purpose ot thine can be restrained. | Therefore have uttered that which I un- | derstood not, things too wonderful tor me, | which knew not I abhor myself and re pent in dust and ashes."
 In obedience to law of growth, saidIthe speaker, through toll and sweat, through sorrow and tribulation we shall rise triumphant into Christ like manhood There must be no rebellion to this law We must obey and live.
