Baoonvzr, Jan. 29.~—Tbe Rev. '1'. De Witt
Tillman, D. 1)., preached today in the
3?”!!me fourth of the 71’er of
”WNW Women of America, with
W Hints to Men." The subject of
the sermon was: "nonunion of Fashion,“
and the text was from Deuteronomy xxii, 5:
"The woman nhall not wear that which pen
talucth unto a man, neither shall a man put.
on a woman's garment: for all that do so are
abomination unto the Lord thy God.” Dr.
Talmage said:
In this, the fourth sermon of the series of
sermons,lwislithi who «hear to bear in
mind that l affix: tornslderation not only
those whom I have before me on b'abbath
days, but the wider audience opened through
the printing presuand while some things
may not be particularly appropriate for one
locality. they are appropriate for many other
lomlities. And here I will tell a secret that
’1qu never before told in public. About
twenty years ago I began to pray that God
ould open to me the opportunity of preach-
iu through the secular newspaper press.
The religious papers in which my pet-mono
had been published chiefly went to positively
religious families. Sol asked God for the
wider field in which to proclaim the great
truths of religion and good morals. In a
strange way the answer came. And the syn-
dicates having charge of these matters iri~
form me that every week there are now
13,610,000 copicsof my discourses puplishcd
in this country, and about 4,000,000 in other
lands, whether English speaking countries or
by translation in many foreign tongues. I
want [x‘opleto understand that it is all in
answer to prayer to God that this oppor-
tunity has come. and I pray for grace to oc-
cupy the field. It is not, therefore, pre-
sumptuous whcn I give wide scope to these
discouses and address them "to the women
of America, with important hints to men."
God thought womanly attire of enough
importance to have it discussed in the Bible.
Paul the apmtlc. by no means a sentimental.
ist, and accustomed to dwell on the great
themes of God and the resurrection. writes
about the arrangement of woman‘s hair and
the style of her jewelry, and in my text
Moses, his ear yet filled with the thunder of
Mount Sinai. declares that Womanly attire
must he in tuarkml contrast with nnisculine
attire, and infraction of that law excites the
indignation of high heaven. Just in proper
tion as tho morals of a cmmtry or an age are
depressed is that law defied. Show me the
fashion plates of any century, from the time
of tho deluge to this, and I will tell you the
, exact state of public morals. maxru-rism in
this country years ago seemed about to break
down this divine law, but there was enough
of good in American society to heat back the
indecency. Yet ever and anon we have inl-
llnpoflcd from France, or [n‘rlmps invented
on this side the sea, a style that pi'oimses, as
far as Insiblefio make women dress like
men, and thousands of young women catch
the mode. until some one goes a little too far
in imitation of mau‘uliuitymri-l the whole
. custom, by the goal sense of American wu-
tnanhoml, is nblitcrutcil.
The cushion-x of the mrrrrtrics nrcdifl’crcut.
and in the smuc country may change. but
there is. a divinely ordered dissimilarity
Which must be forever observed.
vergencc from this is administrative of vice
and runs ngaim’t the keen thnist of the text,
which says; “The woman shall not wear
' that which pcrtuinctli unto mun. neither
shall a man put on n Woman's garment; for
all that do so are tllrlllllllilll'lll unto the Lord
thv Hal."
Many years ago a French nuthorcss, Sign
ing herself George Sand, by her corrupt but
brilliant writings depraved bumps and lillrn- -
ricsiri'ri'umcmblc. and “as a literary grand-
mother of all the present French and Ameri-

women and wormtnly men. What a sicken-
ing thing it is to see a man copying the
speech, the walk, the manner of a Woman.
The trouble is that they do not imitate I

And they sinipcr, and they go with mincing
step, and lisp. and scream at nothing. and
take min languishing look. and bang their
hair, and are the nauseatioii of honest folks
of both sexes. Oh. man. be a man! You be-

lilike repugnant are masculine Women.
They copy a man‘s stalking gait. and godown
the street, with the stride of a walking beam.
They wish they could stucke cigarettes, and ‘
some of them do. They talk lxiistcrously and
try to sing bass. They do not laugh, they
roar. Tbcy camiot quite manage the broad
profanity of the sex they rival. but their
conversation is often a half wear: and if
they said “Oh, diordl’,’ in «truest prayer as
often as they say it in lightness they would
be high up in sainthood. Withal there is~an
assumul rugoslty of apparel, and they wear
a man’s hat, only changtxl by being in two

Tho accomplishments of life are in no wise
productive of affcniinacy or cnervation.
Good manners and a respect for the tastes
of others are indispensable. The (food Book
speaks favorably of those who are a “pecu-
liar” people; but that does not sanction the
behavior of queer people. There is no or-
cuse, under any circumstances, for not being
and acting the lady or gentleman. Rudcness
Ilsin. We have no words too ardent to ex-
press our admiration for the refinements of
society. There is no law, moral or divine,to
forbid elegance of demeanor, or ornaments
of gold, or gems for the whom, artistic dis-
play in the dwelling, gracefulncss of gait
and bearing, polite salutation or holiest com~
plimenis; and he who is shocked or offended
by these had/better, like the old Scythians,
,wcar tiger skins and take one wild leap back
into midnight harbarisrn. As Christianity
advances there will be better apparel, higher
styles of architecture, more exquisite adorn-
ments, sweeter music, grander pictures. more
correct behavior and more thorough ladies
and gentlemen.
But there is another story to be told.
Wrong fashion is to be charged with many
of the worst evils of society, and its path has
often been strewn with the bodies of the
slain. It has often set up a false standard by
which people are to be judged. Our common
sense, as well as all the divine intimatioiis on
the subject, teach us that people ought to be
esteemed according to their individual and
moral attainments. The man who has the
most nobility of soulsbould be first, and he
who has the least of such qualities should
stand last. No crcst, or shield, or cscutchmu
can indicate one}; moral xx-erngc. Titles of
' duke, lord.esquirc, earl, visconnt or pntriciau
ought not. to misc one into the first rank.

This accounts for the utter chagrin u llll'll

Again: Wrong fashion makes people un-
natural and untrue. It is a factory from
which has come forth more hollow pretenses
and uumeaning flatteries and hypocrisies than
the Imwell millsever turned out shawls and
garments. Fashion is the greatest of all
liars. It has made society insincere. You
know not what to believe. When people ask
you to come you do not know whether or not'
W hen they send
their regards you do not know whether it is
an expression of their heart, or an external
civility. We have learned to take alinOIt
everything at a discount. Word is sent “not
at home" when they are only too lazy to dress
themselves. They say: “The furnace has
just gone out” when in truth they have had
no fire in it all winter. They allilogiw for
the unusual burrsnness of their table when
they never live any better. They decry their
most luxurious entertainments to win a
shower of approval. Tin-y nmlogize" or
their appearance, as though it were nuns i,
when always at home they look just so. They
would make you believe that some nice sketch
on the wall was the work of n lruuitcr lminter.
"It was an heirloom and once hung on the
walls of a castle; and a duke gave it to their
grandfather." People who will not. lie about
anything else will lie about a picture. On a
small income we must make the world believe
that we are affluent, and our life, becomes a
cheat, a counterfeit and a sham.
Few “mile are molly natural and unaf-
fected. Whenlsay this I do not mean to
slur cultured manners. It is right that we
should have more admiration "for the sculp-
tured marble than for the unhewu block of
the quarry. From many circles in life [0511‘
ion has driven out vivncity and enthusiasm.
A frozen dignity instmd floats about the

You must smile. 'ou must not dash rapidly
across the room, you must glide. There is a
round of bows, and grins, and flattcries, and
obs and abs, and simpcrings, and unmby-
panibyisni, a world of which is not worth
one good, round, honest pea! of laughter.
From such a hollow round the tortuiul gutst
retires at the close of tho evening and assures
his host that be has enjoyed himself.
Thus social life has been mntortcd and do
formed until, in some mountain cabin, where
rustiis gather to the quilting or the apple
wiring, there e‘ more good chem than in
all the f rcscmd ice lion. of the metropolis.
We want in all the higm'irclcs of society
more warmth of heart and naturalncm of
behavior, and not so many refrigerators.
Again: Wrong fashion is incompatible
with happiness. Those who depend for their
comfort upon thcudnlirzitiou of others are
subject to frequent disappointment. Some-
body will criticise thcir apyxrnrancc, or SUP
prise them in lrrilliuucy, or will receive more
attention. Oh, the jealousy and distraction
and heart burnings of those who move in
this bewildered maze! I'om' butterflies:
Bright wings do not. always bring happiness.
“Site that livcth in plcflaurc is dead
while she liveth." The rcvclutii ms of
high life that come to the chill
lciigc and the light. are only wrest: 'ual crop-
pings out of disquicturlcs that are under-
hut like the demons of the pit for hate. The
misery that will to—night in the cell'ir cuddle
up in the straw is not so utter as tho princely
that stalks through splendid
drawing roorm, brooding river the slight;
and offense of luxurious life. The bitterness
of a ix‘wtcrmug as when it war: from the
chased lips of a golden chalice. in the sharp
crack of the voluptuary's pistol, putting an
curl to his earthly misery, I hear the confir-
motion that in a hollow faztidious life there
is no peace.
Again: Devotion to wrong fashion is pro
ity and spiritual withering. Apparel insuffi-
cient to keep out the cold and the rain, or so
llticd upon the person that the functions or
citcnient and feasting; free drafts of wine
that male one not Mostly intoxicated, but
only fashionably drunk, and luxurious indo-

of prosperous life death goes a—mowing-—and
