New You. March Bi.-—Although his
oratory is at all times magnetic and elo-
quent. there is one theme with which.‘
whenevay he makes it the groundwork of
his sermon. Dr. Talmage nevertails to
communicate to his auditors the enthuslo
asm he himself feels. That theme is the
gospel invitation, and when. this after-
noon. he took for his subject “The Gas-
pel Ship" the great audience that crowded
the Academy was in full sympathy. The
text selected was Genesis vl. 18, “Thou
shalt come into the ark, than and thy sons
and thy wife and thy sons' wives with
thee."
in this day of the eteamships Lucania
and Majestic and the Paris! will show
you a ship that in some respects eclipsed
them all and which sailed out, an ocean i
underneath and another ocean falling up-
on it. infidel scientists ask us to believe
that in the formation of the earth there
have been a half dozen delugcs, and yet
they are not willing to believe the Bible
story of one deluge.
in what way the catastrophe come we
know not—whether by the stroko of a
comet, or by flashes of lightning, chang-
ing the air into water, or by a stroke of
the hand of God, like the stroke of the ox
between the horns of the ox. the earth
staggered. To meet the cntastropho God
ordered a great ship built. It was to be
without prow. for it was to sail to no
shore. It was to be without helm, for no
human band should gutdcit. it wants
vast structure, probably as largo us two
or three modern stcarnurs. it was the
Great Eastern of olden time.
The ship is done. The door is open.
The lizards crawl in. The cattle walk in.
The grasshoppers hop in. The birds fly in.
The invitation goes forth to Noah. “Come
thou and all thy house into tho ark."
Just one human family embark on the
strange voyage. and I hear tho door slam
shut. A great storm swoops along the hills
and bonds the coders until all the branches
snap in the gala. There is a moan in the
wind like unto the mean of adylng world.
Tho blackness of the heavens ls shattered

or doors would not be a safe vessel to go

fastening of the door of the ark, they were
very glad. Unless those doors were fasten-
ed, the first heavy surge of the see would
have whelmed thorn, and they mightas
well have perished outside the ark as in-

And sothere are hundreds out '
the fear of derision. The ”unmar- asIkI:
himself: "What would,they eey at’the
store tomorrow morning if [should lie-
cornea Christian? When I no down to
the clubhouse, they will shoot: 'Eere
comes that nethhristlan. Suppose you
will not have anythingto do with us now.
Suppose you are praying now. Get down
on your knees, and let us hear you pray.
Come, now, give us a touch. Will not do
it, oh? Pretty Christian you are.’ " Is
it not the fear of being laughed at that
keeps you out of the kingdom of God?
Willch of these women will help you at
the last? When you lie down on a dying
pillow, which of them will be there? In
the day of eternity will they ball you out?
My friends and neighbors, come in right
away. Come in through Christ, the wide
door~—tho door that swingsout toward you.
Come in and he saved. Come and be
happy. "The Spirit and the Bride say,
‘Conic.’ " Room in the ark. Boom in
the ark.
But do not come alone. The text in-
vites you to bring your family. It says,
"Thou and thy sons and thy wife." You
cannot drive them in. If Noah had tried
to drive the pigoons and tho doves into
the ark, he would only have scattered
them. Home parents are not wise about
those things. They make iron rules about
Snbbaths, and thoy force the catechism
down the throat as they would hold the
child's hour: and force down a dose of rhu-
barb nnd calomcl. You cannot drive your
children into the ark. You can draw your
children to Christ, but you cannot coerce
them Tho cross was lifted not to drive,
but to draw. "If I be lifted up, lwill
draw all inert unto me." As the sun
draws up tho drops of morning dew so the
sun of righteousness oxhaics the tours of
repentance.
Bo sure that you bring your husband
and wife with you. How would Noah
have felt if when he heard the ruin pat-
tcrlng on the roof of the ark he knew that
his wife was outside in the storm? No;
she wont with him. And yet some of you
are on the ship “outward bound" for
heaven, but your companion is unsbelter-
ed. You remember the day when the
marriage ring was set. Nothing has yet
boon obleqtu break it. Sickness came, and
the finger shrunk, but the ring staid on.
Tho twain stood alone above a child's
grave, and the dark mouth of the tomb
swallowed up a thousand hopes, but the
ring iii’llppl‘d not into tho open grave.
Boys of poverty crime, and the hand did
many a hard day's work, but the rubbing
of the work against the ring only mado it
shinu brightr‘r. Shall that ring over he
lost? Will the iron clung of the sopulchro
gum crush it forovvr? I pray (ind that
you who how boon married on earth may
bu togterhur in heaven. Oh, by the quilt
bliss of your earthly home, by the bubc's
crndlo, by oil tho vows of that tiny whvn
you slut-tori lifo together, I bug you to see
to it that you both got into tho ark.
Bring Your Loved Ones.
Como ill and bring your wifo or your
husband with you—not by fruiting about
ruligiou or dingdonging thl‘m about re-
ligion, but by a consistent life and by is
compelling prayer that shall bring the
throne of God down into your room. Go
home, and take up tho Bible, and read it
together, and then kneel down and com-
mend your souls to him who has watched
you all three years, and before you rise
