Rev. T. I‘leWitt ’l'ahnage, I). ll, preached
the seventh of his series of “Sermons to the
Women of America, with Important lliuti
to Men.” The opening hymn begins:
Tin-n let our mum abound,
And every tear be dry;
We're ulltrl‘blll‘.’ through liniuauuel‘s ground.

Dr. Tulinage took for his text the follow

The hillot‘ of a Boston newspaper a few
days ago wrote, asking me the tense ulnar
lions: "What is the road to happiness!" and
“Ought happiness be the chief aim of life!"
My answer was: "The road to happiness is
the continuous effort to make others happy.
The chief aim of life ought to be usefulness,
not happiness, but happiness always follow:
usefulness." This morning's text in a strong
way sets forth the truth that a Woman who
seeks in worldly advantage her chief enjoy-
ment will come to disamiointmeut and death
"She that liveth in pleasure is dead while she
liveth."
My friends, you all want to be happy.
You have had a great many recipes by which
it is propped to give you satisfaction—nil“
Mllblflf‘ll'lll. At times you feel athorough
unrest. You know as well as older people
what it is tobe depressed. As dark shadows
wait-tunes fall upon the geography of the
school girl as on the page of the .vpectacled
philosopher. Ihave men as Moody days in
May as in November. There are no deeper
sighs breathed by the grandmother than by
the granddaughter. I correct the popular
impression that people are happier in child-
hood and youth than they ever will be again.
If we live aright, the older the happier. The
happiest woman that I ever knew was a
Christian m-togennriau; her hair while as
white could ho; the sunlight of heaven, late
in the afternoon, gliding the [mile of snow.
I have to say in a great many of the young
pf‘flplt: that the most miserable time you are
ever to have is just now. As you advance
in life, as you come out into the world and
have your head and heart all full of good,
honest, practical Christian work, then you
will know what. it is to begin to bohappy.
There are those who would have us believe
that life is chasing thistledown and grasping
bubhlm'. We have not found it so. To
litany of us it has been discovering diamonds
larger than the Kohinoor, and] think that
our joy will continue to increase until noth«
ing nlli'l‘l of the everlasting jubilee of heaven
will be able to express it.
Horatio (lrecnuugb, at the close of the
hardest life a man ever lives—4hr: life of an
Aim-rimn finish—wrote: “I don't want to
leave this world until I give some sign that,
born by the grace of God in this land, I have
found life to in: a Very cheerful thing, and
not the dark and bitter thing with Which my
early prmpm-h were clouded."
Albert Barnes, the good Christian, known
the Wnl'bl nvrr. stood in his pulpit in Phila—
(It'I[.ill.‘t. at Ioor so years of age, and said:
"This world l>1 so wry attractive to me, I am
very wrry I shall have to leave it,"
I knuw'that Solomon said some very dolo-
rous things about this world, and tine.- times
dwlan-d: ”Vanity of Vanities, all is van-
ity." lsnppme it was a reference to those
times in his career when his seven hundred

I would rather turn to the-description he gave
after his conversion, when he so) 5 in another
place: "Her ways are ways of pleumntness,
and all her paths are ptflf'e." It is reason-
able to expect it will be an. The longer the
fruit happen the tree, the riper and more
mellow it ought to grow. You plant. one
grain of corn and it will send up a stalk with
two ears, each having; nine hundred and fifty
grains, so that one grain planted will pro
duce nineteen hundred grains. And ought
not the implantation of a grain of Christian
principle ma youthful Sulll develop intoa
large crop of gladnes on earth, and to a bar-
vest of eternal joy in heaven! Hear me,
then, while I discourse upon name of the mie-
takes which young people make in regard to
happiness. and point out to the young women
what I consider to be the source of complete
patisfuctiou.
And, III the first place, I advise you not to
build your happiness upon mere social peel.
tiou. Persona at your age, looking off upon
life, are apt to think that, if by some stroke
of what is called good luck, you could arrive
III an elevated and affluent position, a little
higher than that in which God liascdled you
to live, you would be completely happy. In-
finite mistake! The palate floor of Abasuenis

There have been no more scalding tears wept
than those which coursed the checks of
Josephine. If the sob of unhappy woman-
ion in the great cities could break through
the mix-stried wall, that sub would come
along your streets today like the simoon of
the desert. Sometimes I have heard lathe
rustling of the robe: on the city pavement
the hiss of the adders that followed
in the wake. You have come out
from your home, and you have looked
up at the great house, and covet a
life under three arches, when, perhaps, at
that very moment, within that house, there
may have been the wringing of hands, the
start of horror and the very agony of hell.
I knew such a one. ller father's house was
plain, most of the people who' came there
were plain; but, by a change in fortune such
as mum-times conwe, a hand had been offered
that led her intoa brilliant sphere. All the
neighbors congratulated her upon her grand
prospects; but what an exchange! On her
side it was a heart full of generous impulse
and affection. On his tilde it was a will dry
and withered us the stubble of the field. On
her side it was a father's Mum, where God
was honored and the Sabbath lightflooded
the rooms with the very mirth of heaven.
On his aide it was gorgeous residence, and
the coming of mighty men to be enter-
talned there; but within it were revelry and

More social position will never give happi-
nenito a woinan'c soul. I have IlfllI wide
and continuous observation, and I tell the
young women'that they who build on mere
social [amnion their soul's immortal happiness
are building on the sand.
Suppose that a young woman expenda the
brightness of her airly life fall‘s unvatixfuc—
tory struggle and omits the prev-m uppin-
tunlty of usefultma in the home circle: what
a mistake! \
Bo surely as the years roll around that
home in which you now dwell will become
extinct. The parents will be gone, the prop-
erty will go into other “mansion, you your-
self willbe in other relationshipu, and that
home which, only a year. ago, was full of
congratulation, will be extinguishu'l. When
that period comes you will look back to use
what you did, or what you neglected to do in
the way of making home happy. It. will be
too late to correct mistakes. If you did not
mouth the path of your parents toward the
tombyif you did not make their last day»
bright and happy; if you allow-ml your
younger brother to go out into the world,
unhallowed by Christian and si-dcrly influ-
ences; if you allowed the younger sisters of
your family to come up without It‘t'Illlg that
there had been a Christian example set them
on your part, there will be nothing but hit-
temeus of lamentativm. That bitterness will
be increased by all the surroundings of that
home; by every chair, by every picture, by
the old time mantel ornaments, by every-
thing you can think of an connected with
that home. All these things will rouse up
agonizing memories. Young women, have
you anything to do in the way
of making your father‘shome happyt Now
is the time to attend to it, or leave it forever
undone. Time is flying very quickly away,

ing and accumulating on thaw kindly faces
that have so long'looked upon you; therois
frost in the locks; the foot is not as firm in
its stapes it used to be; and they will soon
begone. The heaviest elod that ever falls
on a parent's coflln lid is the memory of an
ungrateful daughter. 0h, make their last
days bright and beautiful. Do not act as
though they were in the way. Ask their
counsel. seek their prayers, and, after long
years have phased, and you go out to see the
grave where they sleep, you will find grow-
ing all over the mound something lovelier
than cypress, something mectcr than the
rose, something cheater than the lily—the
bright and beautiful memories of filial kind~
nessperfornml ere the dying hand dropped
on you a ln-nediction, and you cltml the
lids m’er the weary eyes of the Worn out
pilgrim better that, in the hour of your
birth, you had been struck with orphanage,
and that you had bum handed over into the
mid umis of the world, rather than
that. you should have been brought up un-
der a father's care and a mother's tenderness,
at lasttoseofl at. their example and deride
their influence; and on the day when you
followed them in long procession to the
tomb, to find that you are followed by a still
larger primes-sinii of unfilinldwdsdono and
wrong words uttered. The one procession
will leave its burden in the tomb and dis—
band; but that longer prim-(anon of ghastly
memories will forever march and forever
wail. Oh, it is a good time for a young wo
man when she is in her father’s house. How
careful they are of her welfare! llow watch-
ful those pnientsof all her interestsf Seated
atthe niomiug repnst, father at one end the
table, children on either side and between,
but the years will roll on, and great changes
will be effected, and one will be missed from
one end the table, and another will be missed
from the other end the table. God pity that
young woman's soul who, in that dark hour,
has nothing but regretful rcwuliectious.
I go further, and advise you not to depend
for enjoyment upon more personal attrac-
tions. It would be sheer hypocrisy, became
we may not have it ourselves, to despise, or
affect to despise, beauty in others. When
God gives it he gives it an a blaming and as
a means of usefulness. David and his 11me
were coming down from the mountains to
destroy Kabul audhia flock: and vineyards.
The beautiful Abigail, the wife of Kabul,
went out to arrest him when he came down
from the mountains, and she suecewled.
Coming to the foot of the hill, she knelt.
David, with his army of sworn men, came
down over the cliffs, and when he saw her
kneeling at the foot of the hill hecried “Halt!"
tohis men, and the eaves «bout it: "Halt!
halt!" That one beautiful woman kneeling
at the foot of the cliff had arrested all
them armed trmps. A dewdrop dashed
back Niagara. The Bible sets beforeusthe
portraits of Sarah and Rebecca. and Abiding,
Absalom’s sister, and Julia daughters, and
says: “They were fair to look upon"! By
out door exercise, and by skillful arrange-
ment of apparel, let women make themselves
attractive. The eleven has only one mission,
and that to excite our loathing and disgust.
But alias! for them whodepend upon personal
charm: for their happiness. Beauty is such
aaubtlu thing, it does not seem to depend
upon facial prowrtions, or upon the sparkle
of the eye, or upon the flush of the cheek.
You sometimes find it among irregular feat—
ures. It is the soul ehining through the face
that makes one beautiful. But alas! for
thwewho depend upon mere personal charms.
They willcometo disappointment and too
great fret. There are IO many different
opinions about what are personal charms;
and then sickness. and trouble, and age, do
make such ravages. The poorest god that a
woman ever warships is her own face. The
saddest sight in all the world in woman who
has built everything on good looks, when the
charms begin to vanish. Oh, how they try
tocover the wrinkles and hide the ravages
of time! When time, with iron shod feet,
steps on a face, the hoof marks remain, and
youeunuot hide them. it is silly to try to
hide them. lthink the most repulgive fool
in all the world is an old fool!
Why, my friemls, should you be ashamed
tube getting old? It is a sign—4t is prima
facie evidence that you have behat‘ed toler-
ably well or you would not have lived to this
time The grandest thing, I think. is eternity.
and that is made up of mumlm years.
When the Bible Would not forth the attrac-
tivenensof Jesus Christ, it my»: "Ilia hair
was whltnas snow!" But. when the color goes
from the cheek, nnal the luster from the eye,
.nd the spring from the step, and the grace-
fuhm from the gait, ulna! for those who
have built their time and their ctcmity upon
good India. But «Infotainment years can.
not take out of one‘s face henignlty, and kind-
ness, and miulxission, and faith. Culture
outlieart and you culture your face. The
brightest glory that ever beamed from a
minute face is the religion of JesusChrlst.
