minds, l’ii., Aug. l7.——'I'ho American
Farmers’ encampment at Mount Gretna,
near this city, today listened attentively to
a remarkable discourse by the great Brook
Iyn preacher, Rev. T. De Witt Tonnage,
who arrived here yesterday from Piedmont.
Chautauqua, 6a., where he spoke on
Wednesday last. Thg subject was one
liarly suited to the vast audience, be

xix, l9: Elisha, thcson of Shnphnt, who was
lowing with twelve yoke (if oxen before
fin, and he with the twelfth.
Representatives of the great farmers'
associations from all parts of the country
are at the encampment, preparations for
which have been going on for months in

advance. The surrounding densely popu'

Infed counties of Pennsylvania are also
fully represented. Today's services were
held in the open air. Au immense choir
from the churches of Lebanon led the
music.

Rev. Dr. ’i‘ulinugu spoke as follbws:

Farmers of Aincrit-nl Accept my said
tationl Our text puts us down into the
plow's furrow, where many of us have been
before. My boyhood passed on a farm and
my fathern farmer, your style of life is
hmilini' to me. One of my earliest recol-
lections is that of my father coming in
from the hot harvest field exhausted, the
perspiration streaming from his forehead
and chin, and fainting on the doorsill, and
my mother resuscitating him, until seeing
the alarm of the household he said: "Don’t
be fightened. Igor, a little tired and the
run was hot, but I am fill right now."
And I remember mother seated at the
table, often saying, "Well, I am too tired
toeat!" The fact. is that I do not think
the old folks got thoroughly rested until
they lay down in the graveyard back of
Somei'villc to take the last sleep.

this country have it harder than farmers.
Independent of what? Of the curciilio that

their living out of the soil, and it'll!) that
way have to clothe their families and edu-
cate their children and pay their taxes
and meet their interest on inorigagal

And my hope is that this great National
Farmers' encampment may do something
toward lifting the burdens of the ngrieul‘
tnrists. Yes, we were nearly all of us
born in the country. “13 dropped corn in

cattle afield, our bare ‘feet ivet with the
dew, and rode the horses with the halter
to the brook until we fell off, and hunted
the mow for nests until the feathered oc‘
cup-nu went cuckling away. So we all
understand rustic allusions. The Bible is
full of them. In Christ'- sermon on the
mount you see the full blown lilies and the
glossy back of the crow's wing as it flies
over Mount Olivet. David and John, Paul
3nd Isaiah find in country life a source of
frequent illustration, while Christ takes
the responsibility of calling God a farmer,
declaring.“.‘dy Father is the husbandmnn. ”

Noah wan the first farmer. We say
nothing about Cain, the tiller of the soil.
Adam was a gardener on a large scale. but
to Noah was given all the acres of the
unit. Elisha was an ngrieulturtst, not
culturing a ten acre lot; for in my text you
find him plowing with twelve yoke of oxen
beforohim,nnd he with the twalfth. In
Bible times the land was [0 plenty and tho

They were not small crops raised in those

In all ages there has been great honor
paid to agriculture. Seven-eighth: of the
people in every country are disciples of the
plow. A government is strong in propor-
tion as it is supporter] by an athletic and
industrious ycomunry. So long ago as be

into a discussion of agricultural conquests.
Standing amid the harvests and orchards
and vineydrds of the Bible, and standing
amid the harvests and orchards and vine-
yards of our own country—4 want to run
out the analogy between the production of
crops and the growth of grace in the soul—
all these sacred writers making use of that
analogy.

now DEEP! rnow DEEP!

In the first place I remark, in grace as in
the fields there must be a plow. That
which theologians call conviction is only
the plowshnre turning up the sins that
have been routed and matted in the soil.
A farmer said to his indolent son, “Then-

flcld.” The son went to work and plowed
the field from fenceto fence, and he plowed
it very deep and then complained that he
had not found the money, but when the
crop had been gathered aml sold for a bun
dred dollars more than any previous year,
then the young man took the hint as tr
what his father meant when he said then
were it hundred dollars buried down in
that field. Deep plowing for a crop. Deep
plowing furnsoul. He who makes light
of sin will never amount to anything in
the church or in the world. If it man
speaks of sin us though it were an inn:-
curacy or a mistake. instead of tho loathe
some, abominable, consuming and damn
lug thing that God lintes,tliat man will
never yield a harvest of usefulness.

“'lien I was a boy I plowed a field with
n team of spirited horses. I plowed it very
quickly. Once in a while I [mutual over
some of the sod without turning it, but. I
did not jerk back the plow with its rattling;
elcviscs. I thought it made no difference
Afternwhile my father came along and
said: “\Vliy, this will never do; this isn't
plowed deep enough; them you have missed
this and you have missed that." And be
plowed it over again. The difficulty with
it great many people is that they are only
scratched with conviction when tho subsoil

And if in yourmvu personal experience
you are apt. to take a lenient view of the
sinful side of your nature put down intr
your soul the ten commandments. which

You have suffered an appalling injury by
reason of sin. There are quick poisons and
slow poisons, but the druzgfst could give
you one drop that would kill llll' body.
And sin is like that drug: so virulent. so
poisonous. so futnl that one drop is enough
to kill the soul.

I’i.0\\'t\il POI: .\ son.

Deep plowing: for a rrop. Deep plowing
forusoul. Broken heart or no religion.
Broken soul or no harvest. \Vhy was it

and Paul made such ndo nlxiuo-chcir sins?
find they lost their acuscs’ No. The
plowsbun-struck them. t‘ouvirtiou turned

As a farmer plowing sometimes turns up
the skeleton of n mun or the anatomy of u
monster long ago burial, so the plomzhnre
of conviction turns up the ghastly skeletons
of sin long ago infornbed. Geologists
never brought up from the dcplhsof the

But what lllt‘illlS all this crooked plow

that amounts to nothing, the repentance
that ends in nothing? .\Ii-n groan out

of burrow, but the burrow us I remember

and the horses made a struggle and pulled

Injurioiu Enamel "Sweat Bllulli.”

“A good many sore faces,” said a well
known physician, “are caused every sum‘
nicr by poisonous 'sweat bands’ in hats.
Some men nl ways insist on buying Derby
hats with enameled sweat bands, and if
they wear them during the summer months
a mild sort of blood poisoningia apt to re-
sult. As a man‘s head always perspires
very f reel y under the sweat band of his bat
the poison in the enaineling composition is
softened and released. But its unpleasant
effects are seldom noticeable there. The
very fact that the perspiration is constantly
coming out ofthose particular pores pre-
vents the poison from in. But as
each little bend of perspiration rolls down
his face it is charged with the poison, and
if it happens to run over a little pimple ol‘
a place where he has scratched his face or
cut it with u razor the result will probably
be unpleasant.

A dozen tiny pimples will appear, and no
matter how funny “bloml purifiers" ho
doses himself with his face will be dotted
with little sure». until he buys a. hat with
it good sweat band. Straw hats are seldom
made up with these enameled sweat bands.
and that fact is another reason why every
man should wear them in the summer. 0!
