Dr. Talmage’s text was, 1 Chronicles xx, 6.
7: “A man of great stature, whose fingers
Ind toes were four and twenty, six on each
hand and six on each foot; and he also was
the non of the giant. But when he dulled
lanai. Jonathan, the son of Shimea, David’s
brother, slew him."

Malformation photographed, and for what
reason! Did not this [usage slip in by mis-
take into tho sacred Scriptures, as convictions

knot this scriptural errata? No, no; there
is nothing hppbazurd about the Bible. This

.pamage of Scripture was as certainly in-
tended to be put in the Bible as the passage.
“In thciwginningGod created the heavens
and the earth,” or, “God so loved the world
that he gave his only begotten Son."

And i seloct it for my text today because
is charged with practical and tremendous
r; u aning. y the people of God the Phllisvr'
, nos had 1n conquered, with the cxcoptio ’
a few giants. The race of giants in
lastly extinct, I am glad to say. There is
. I usefor giants now except toenlargetbo
. .. a of museums. But there were many of
them in olden times. Goliath was, according
to the Bible, eleven fcct four and a half inches
high. Or, if you do not believe the Bible,
the famous Pliny, a secular writer, declares
that at. Crete, by an earthquake a monument
was broken open, discovering the remains of
a giant forty-six cubits long, or sixty-nine
feet high. So, whether you prefer sacred or
profane history, you must come to the conclu-
Sion that there were in those olden time.
casesof human altitude monstrous and ap- ‘
polling. David had smashed the skull of on.
of theSe gleam, but therewmothor giants
that the Davidean wars had not yet subdued,
and one of them stands in my text. He was
not only of Alpine stature, but had a surplus
of digits. To the ordinary fingers was an.
flexed an additional finger, and the foot
had also a superfluous addendum. He had
twenty—four terminations to hands and feet
where others have twenty. It was not the
only instance of the kind. Tavernier, the
learned writer, says the emperor of Java had
a son endowed with the same number of ex—
tremities. Valentina, the. poet, had six fingers
on each hand. Maupetius, in his celebrated
letters, speaks of two families near Berlin
similarly equipped of hand and foot. All of
which I can believe, for I have seen two
cascsof the same physical super-abundance.
But this giant of the text is in battle, and as
David, the dwarf warrior, had dispatched
one giant, the brother of David slay: this
monster of my text, and there he lies after
tho battlc in Bath, a dead (pant. Bis stature
did not save him and his superfluous appear
dices of hand an foot (lid not save him. The
probability was that in the battle his sixth
finger on his hand made him clumsy in the
use of his weapon and his sixth toe crippled
his gait. Behold the prostrate and mal-
formated giant. of the text: “A man greatof
stature, whose fingers and toes were four and
twenty. six on each hand and six on sch
foot, and he also was the Ion of the giant.
But when he defied Israel, Jonathan, the non
of Shimea. David’s brother, slew him.”

Behold how superfluitics are a hinderance
rather than n help! in all the battle at Goth
that day there was not a man with ordinary
band and ordinary foot and ordinary stature
that was not better off than this physical
curiosity of my text. As physical size is apt
to run in families the probability is that this
brother of David Who did the work was of
an abbreviated stature. A dwarf on the
right eido is stronger than a giant on the
wrong side, and all the body, and mind, and
estate, and opportunity that you cannot use
for God and the betterment of the world is a
sixth finger and n sixth toe, and a terrific
hinderancc. The most of the good dono in
the world and the most of those who win the
battles for the right are ordinary people.
Count the fingers of their right hand and
they have just five—no more and no
loss. One Dr. Duff among minionaries, but

king of Poland abdicated his throne and
joined the people and became a porter to
carry burdens. And some one asked him

“Well,”aays somebody “such overloaded
persons ought lobe pitied, for their worri-
moninare real and their insomnia and their
norvonsprost-tions are genuine." I reply
that they could get rid of the bothersome
surplus by giving it away. Ila man has
more houses than he can carry without vexa~
tion, let him dmpa few of them. If his es-
tate is so great he cannot manage it without
getting ncrvoua dyspepsia from having too
much, let him divide up with those who have
nervous dy ' because they cannot
get enough. 1.0! they guard their sixth
finger with more care than they did the
original live. They go limping with what
theycall gout and know not that, like the
giant of the text, they are iamed by a super.
fluous toe. A few of them, by large charir
tics, bleed themselves of this financial obaity
and monetary plethora, but many of them

Charles Bell. the English surgeon, on thehatr
tie fleid of Waterloo. while engaged in ampu-
tation- of the wounded was so 11an with
the wondrous construction of thehuman hand

that when the Earl of Bridgewater gave 840,- ‘

000 for essays on the wisdom and seminars of
God, and eight books were written, Sir
Charla Bell wrote his entire book ontho
wisdom and goodness of God as displayed in
the human hand. The twenty-seven bones
in hand and wrist with the cartilageeand
ligaments and phalanges of the fingers all
made just ready to knit, to new, to build up,
to pull down, to weave, to write, to
plow, to pound. to wheel, to battle, to
give friendly salutation. The tips of its
fingers are so many telegraph offices by rea-
son of their sen-funnels of touch. The
bridges,the tunnels, the cilia of the whole
earth are the victories of the hand. The
hands are not dumb, but often speak undis—
tinctly asthe lips. “'itimnr hands we in-
vite, we repel, we invoke, we entrant, we
wring them in grief or clap them‘ in joy, or
spread them abroad in imncdlction. The mul-

voice of God commanding you to shake

You! the malformation of this fallen
giant's foot glorifics the ordinary foot, for
which 1 fear you have never once thanked
God. The twenty-six bones of the foot are
the admiration of the anatomist. The arch
of the foot, fashioned with a gmceand a
poise that Trajan'a arch at Beneventum or
Constantine's arch at Homo or Arch of Tri-
umph at the end of Champs Elysee: mid
not equal. Those arches stand where they
were planted, but this arch of the foot is 'au
adjustable arch, a yielding arch, a flying
arch, and ready for movement: innumerable.
The human foot so fashioned as toenablo
mantostaml upright as noothcr creature,
and leave the hand that would ctherwiso
have to llclp in balancing the body free
for any thing it chooses. The foot
of the camel fashioned for the sand.
the foot of the bird fashioned for
the tree branch, the foot of the hind fash-
ioned for the slippery rock, the foot of the
lion fushionml to rend its prey, tho foot of
the horse fashioned for the solid earth, but
the foot of man made to cm the desert, or
climb the true, or sonic tho cliff, or walk the
earth, or go anywhere he needs to go. With
that divine triumph of anatomy in your pos-
scmion, where do you walk? In what path
of righlcousncss or what path of sin have
you set it down! thro have youieft the
mark of your footsteps! Amid the petrifnc—
tions in tho rocks have been found the
mark of the fact of birds and tracts of
thousands of years ago. And God can trace
out all the footsteps of your lifetime, and
those you made fifty years ago nreasplain
as than made in the last soft weather, all of
them petrified for the Judgment day. Oh,
the foot! llow divinely honored not only
in its construction but in thefact thatGod
represents himself in the Bible as having
feet: “Tho clouds on the dust of his fem"
“Darkncm was under his feet;" ”Theearth

and auroclydons and whirlwind; and hurri-

self as putting his foot on these monsters of

pinion, saying: "llo walketh upon the
