‘RE FOUND JONAH ASLEEP. Rev. (A desputohi from W: —Rey. Dr. Talmage preached from. mie following text; “So the Shipmaster came to him, and said unto What meanest thou, 0 sleeper? Arise; call upon thy Goi, if so be that will think upon us, that we perish not.”—Jonah i, 6. God told Jonah to go to Nineveh on an unpleasant | errand, He would net go.

If, instead of sleeping, Jonah’ had been on his knees confess- ing his sins from the time he went on board the craft, I think that God would have saved him from being thrown over board.
