"Aud the Books Were Opened

And the BOOKS were opened
Rev. H. w. Moore, pastor of the
Presbyterian church, preached last
night from the text: "And 1 raw the
dead, small and great stand before
God; and The books were opened" Rev
kip.
The speaker said: Here is scene
painted with one sweep of the brush.
We are taken At once from these pews,
your business, our homes, straight to
the throne of God where is the grand
winding up of all earthly things. Up
from the north, south, east and west
they come to judgment. We need no
commentator or great Greek scholar to
interpret this text. 1t is clear as day
light. We all, rich, poor, white,
crack, small, great, must meet God at
the judgment when the books shall be
opened and our sins, secret Gins. open
sios, forgotten sins, shall come to light.
Read how 258 brave fellows of the
Maine few days ago were, in an in
slant, ushered into eternity. Better
close your store tomorrow, better stay
away from business or school and settle
this question of preparation to meet
God when the books are opened.
There are some questions everyone
must settle for himself-what am 1 GO
ing to do with my life, drift like chip

must do with conscience, obey it or
silence it? And, again, what must
do with sin or what must l do with
death-banish it from my thoughts or
prepare for it? And then comes this
question, what am 1 going to do with
the judgment? You say you must
SOW your wild oats bsfore you become q
christian. 1 answer the best place for
wild oats is in q red hot oven. Do
not SOW, what you do not want to reap.
Let me ask you if God waits till young
people get through sowing wild oats
before he calls them by death. Read
the cemetery tombstones. You say, l
do not feel like becoming q Christian.
1 answer show me one place in the BIZ
BILE where conversion depends on feel
log. Faith is the essential. Feeling
comes after this. You say other peo-
pie are not Christians. 1 answer how
does that help you? This is not ques-
ton between neighbors, but between
you and God. Hypocrites in the
church, you continue. l answer if you
find ten rotten apples under q tree

ing to do with ten bushels of good ap-
Oles on the tree. Anyhow you do not

A LITTLE SUFFERER

Face, Hands and Arms Covered With
Serofulous Humors s. How a Cure
Was Effected.
"When five years old my little boy had
scrofula on his face, hands and arms. It
was worst on his chin, although the sores
ON his cheeks and hands were very bad.
1t appeared in the form of red pimples
which would tester, break open and run
and then scab over. After disappearing
they would break out again. They caused
intense itching and the little sufferer had
to be watched continually to keep him
from scratching the sores. We became
greatly alarmed at his condition. My
wife's mother had had scrofula and the
only medicine which had helpd her was
Hoods Sarsaparilla. We decided to give
It to our boy and we noted an improve
ment in his case very soon. After giving
him four bottles of Hoods Sarsaparilla
the humor had all been driven out of his
blood and it has never since returned"

apply this to the law, or medi.
cine or business should you wish to en-
ter it, Then why to the church? You
say God Is too good not to save you.
Yes, God has been good to you, but all
this goodness has been to lead you to
repentance, not to encourage you in
sin. You cay you do not come into
the church because there 10 so much
mystery about religion. I answer
there is one hundred times more mys-
terry without it. You cay you will
come sometime. I say now Is the time.
Tomorrow is Gods not yours. Today
is yours. There is not thief behind
prison bars but what expected some
time to be good. Thousands have been
lost through delay.
Has it occurred to you sto ask your
self the question how these excuses
will sound when you stand with the
small and great before God and the
books are opened? Think of telling
God 81 had not time to think about 1t. I"
Time! You have had ten, fifteen, forty
years You can settle the question in
a few minutes. Oh how early it is to
forget these great realities. Men and
women are so covered up in business in
pleasure, in worldly care, that they hear
not Gods voice. But you must meet
God. There is no pocket in a shroud,
you can take no mOrtR ages, no real
estate, no bonds into the other world.
Listen men to the text. It comes to
arouse you like q knock at the door 1t
midnight "and 1 saw the small and
great standing before God and the
books were opened"
You may treat the question by say
ing ''1'll run the risk" But what risk
when the church, conscience and the
warning Of Gods words say, delay not.
Or you may say, I'm come'sometime."
But this has caused thousands to die
unprepar ed, such go down like men 20
down in ship at midnight without .
Rroan or q Cry, or you may say: II
come, now 1 will. confess: Christ our
Saviour and Lord" Then, oh broth
ers, you settle forever the great ques-
tions of sin, death end the Judgment
and singing in your breast all through
life will find these words There is
no condemnation to them who are in
Christ Jesus" Come place your hand

excellence. St. Clements choir, under
the veteran direction of Professor

impression with it's whole souled

naturally held great sway over the French


soldiers.
Versatile themselves, they have greater
confidence in q character the reverse Of
their own, and will follow farther an IRON
willed commander than one possessing
nothing but enthusiasm. In sudden
charge you want the headlOng excitement,
but in the steady march into the very
face of destruction, and the firm resist
ance in the midst of carnage, you need
the cool, resolute man.
This trait in MacdOnald's character was
evinced in his conduct when sent to repel
the invasion of Napoleon, who was draw
ing all hearts after him in his return from
exile. He repaired to Lyons with his
army, but finding that his troops had
caught the wild-fire enthusiasm that was
carrying everything before it, he adj
dressed them on their duty. 1t was to no
purpose, however. for no sooner did they
see the advanced guard OF Napoleon $
small company, and hear the shout OF
give iEmpereur," with which they rent
the air, than they rushed forward, shout,
ing "Vive TEmpereur" in return, and
clasped their old comrades to their
bosomS.
Ney, under similar circumstances, was
also borne away by the enthusiasm of the
moment, and flinging his hat into the air,
Joined in the wild cry that shook Europe
like an earthquake, and summoned a
continent to arms again, and made kings
donald was not a being of such rapid
impulses. His actions were the result OF
reflection rather than of feeling. True to
his recent oath, he turned from his
treacherous troops and fled, and narrowly
escaped being taken prisoner by them.
He was conscientious soldier, kind in
peace-sparing of his men in battle, I'M
less sacrifice was imperiously demanded,
and then spilling blood like water. Gen
erous and Open-hearted, he spoke his
sentiments freely, and abhorred injustice
and meanness. DazZled, as all the world
was, by the splendid talents and brilliant
achievements of Bonaparte, he followed
him with constancy and devotion that
evince generous and noble heart.
To a watchfulness that never slept and
spirit that never tired, he added ex-
ertion that overcame the most lnSur-
mountable difficulties and baffled the
plans of all his enemies. He seemed to
be unconscious of fatigue, and never Tor a
moment INDUCED in that lassitude which
is SO epidemic in an army, and so often
ensures its destruction. One cannot put
his finger on the spot in the mans life
where he acted as if he felt discouraged
or ready to abandon everything in de-
spair.
He seemed to lack enthusiasm, but had
in its place logged resolution that was
