of the way and hide yourself In the
dens and caves Of the earth, lest when
Christ's chariot comes along the
horses hoofs trample you into the
mire. Beware lest the thousands Of
the destitute OF your city. in the last
great day, rise up and curse your stu
pidity and your neglect. Down to
work! Lift them upl
One cold winters day, as a Christian
man was going along the Battery in
New York- he saw little girl seated at
the gate, shivering in the cold. He said
to her: "My child, what do you sit
there for this cold day2" "oh," she re-
replied, 81 am waiting--I am waiting
for somebody to come and take care
of me-" why" said the man, what
makes you think anybody will come
and take care of you?' "oh," she said,
my mother died last week, and was
crying very much, and she said:' Don't
cry, dear. Though ! am gone and your
father is gone, the Lord will send some-
body to take care Of you My mother
never told lie. She said some one
would come and take care of me, and I
am waiting for them to come" Oh, yes,
theya are waiting for you. Menwho have
money, men who have influence, men
of churches, men Of great hearts, gather
them in, gather them in II is not the
will of your Heavenly Father that one
of these little ones should perish.
Lastly, the street impresses me with
the fact that all the people are looking
forward. / see expectancy written on
almost every face meet. Where you
find thousand people walking straight
on, you only find one man stopping and
looking back. The fact is, God made us
all to look ahead, because we are inn
mortal. In this tramp of the multitude
on the street / hear the tramp of a
great host marching and marching for
eternity. Beyond the Office, the store,
the shop, the street, there is world,
populous and tremendous. Through
Gods grace, may you reach that blessed
place. A great throng fills those
boulevards, and the streets are a-rush
with the chariots. of conquerors. The
inhabitants go up and down, but they
never weep and they never toll. A river
flows through the city, with rounded
and luxurious banks, and the trees of
life, laden with everlasting fruitage,
bend their branches into the crystal.
No plumed hearse rattles over that
pavement, for they are never sick. With
immortal health glowing in every vein,
they knownoth to die. Those towers
of strength, those palaces of beauty,
CLEAN in the light of sun that never
sets. Oh, Heaven, beautiful Heavenl
Heaven, where our friends are! They
take no census in that city for it is in
habited by "a multitude which no man
can number" Rank above rank. Host
above host. Gallery above gallery
sweeping all around the heavens. Thou
sands of thousands. millions of mil
lions. Blessed are they who enter in
through the gate into that city. Oh,
start for it to-day! Through the blood
of the great sacrifice of the Son of God
take up your march to Heaven. ''The
SpiritanG the bride say, Come, and who
soever will let him come and take the
water of life freely" Join this great
throng marching Heayenward. All the
doors of invitation are open. "And ]
saw twelve gates, and the twelve gates
were twelve pearls"
