If Jonah had been told one year before that a heathen sea-captain would ever awaken him to a sense of danger, he would have scoffed at the idea ; but here it is done. So now, men in strangest ways are aroused from spiritual stupor. A PROFANE MAN in brought to conviction by the shock- ing bluphemy of a comrade. A man cttcnding church. and hearing agar. mon from the text, “The ox knoweth his owner,” etc., goes home unimpress- ad; but, crossing his barn yard, an ox comes up and Licks his hand, and he says, "There it in nowâ€"‘the ox know- oth his owner, and the use his mal- tor’a crib,’ but I do not know God.” The «rolm renurk of a tournator h“ led a man to thowhttnlnou and heav- on.

Plung- ing a thousand fathoms down you can- not touch bottom. Eternity beneath him, before him, around him! Rocks close by, and Whirlpools, and hot- breathed Levanters; yet sound asleep! We try to wake him up, but fail. The great surges of warning break over the hurricane-deckâ€"the gong of warn- ing sounds through the cabinâ€"the bell in the wheel-house rings. “Awake!” crya hundred voices; yet sound asleep in the cabin. Learn. how soundly men will sleep in the midst of danger. The worst sinner on shipboard, considering the light he had, was Jonah. He was sound asleep in the cabin. Oh! how could the sinner sleep! What if the ship struck a rock! what. it it sprang a leak! what if the 01me Oriental craft should capsizei What would become of Jonah 7 Every farthing you spend in sin Satan will swindle you out of. He promises you shall have thirty per cent, or a great dividend. He lies. He will sink all the capital. You may pay full {are to some sinful successf. but you will never get to Tarshish. Learn that the devil takes: a man’s money and then sets him down in a poor landing-place. The Bible says he paid his fare to 'l‘arshish. But see him get out. The sailors bring him to the side of the ship, lift him over “the guards,” and let him drop with a loud splash into the waves. HE PAID HIS FARE all the way to Tarshish, but did not get the worth of his money. Neither does any one who tmrns his back on his duty und does that which is not right. oi the vessel from. the crest of a tall wave is exhilarating to those at home on the deep. But the strong breeze becomes a gale, the gale a hurricane. The attrighted passen- gers ask the captain if. he ever saw anything like this before. “Oh yes," "this is nothing.” Mariners are slow to admit danger to landsmen. But, after a while, crash goes the mast, and the vessel pitches so far "a-beams end" there is a tear she will not be righted. The captain answers few questions, and orders the throwing out of boxes and bundles, and so much of the cargo- as they can get at. The captain at last confesses there is but little hope, and tells the passengers that they had better go to praying. The rest of the story I will not rehearse, for you; know it well. To appease the sea, they threw Jonah overboard. down among the shipping, and says to the men lying around on the docks, “Which of these vessels Sails to-dayi” The sailors answer, “Yonder is a ves- wsel going to Tarshish. I think. if you hurry, you may get on board her." Jonah steps on board the rough craft. asks how much the (are is, and pays i. Anchor is weighed, sails are hoisted. and the rigging begins to rattle in the strong breeze of the Mediterranean. Joppa is an exposed harbour, and it does not take long for the vessels to get out on the 13er can. The sailors like what they call‘ a “spanking breeze," and the plunge‘ God told Jonah to go to Nineveh on an unpleasant errand. He would not go. He thought to get away from his duty by putting to sea. With pack under his arm, ‘I find him on his way to Joppa, a sea-port. He goes PAID HIS WAY TO TARSHISH A dental: from Wuhéngton can: â€"Rev.

You remember her now, as: she sat, in cap and spectacles, reading her Bible, Sunday afternoons. What good ad- vice she used to give you!

You heard him, in his old~days, tell about some ter- trible exposure in a snow-storm, or Fat out, or! in battle, or among mid- night garroters, and how he escaped. Perhaps twenty years before you were born, your father made sweet acquain- tance With God. There is something in the worn pages of the Bible he used to read which makes you think your father had a God. In the old religious books lying around the house, there are. passages marked With a lead pencilâ€"passages that make you think your father was not a godless man. but that, on that dark day when he lay in the back room dying, he was readyâ€"all ready. But perhaps your father was a bad manâ€"prayerless. appetites. Do not then, ll. beg you, call upon your father’s God, but call God, you had better call upon Him.

The sea opens its trothing jaws to rIwallow. The lightnings hold their torches at the soul’s burial. The thundere toll their belle as he drops. Eternal death catches him. He has gone for ever. And while the canvas cracked, and the yards rattled, and the ropes thumped, the sea took up the funeral dirge, playing, with open dia- pasou of midnight storm, “Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded; bu't ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of So men sometimes wake up too“ late. The last hour has come. The man has no more idea of dying than I have of dropping down this moment. The rigging is all white with the foam of death. How chill the night is!" "I [must flit,” he says, “yet ‘not r'eady. I must push out upon this awful sea, but} have nothing with which to pay my! fare. The white caps! the darkness! the hurrvrcane 1- ‘How long have I been sleeping! Whole days, and months, and years. I am quite awake now. I see everything, but it is too late.” Invisi- ble hands take him up. Be struggles to get loose. In vain. They bring his small to the verge. They let it down over the side. Again: Learn that a man may wake :np too late. 11, 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. But he woke up too late. The tempest is in full blast,and the sea, in convulsion; is lashing itself and nothing will stop it now but the overthrow of Jonah. that man will begin to think about his soul. He has been on his last spree. He has made his last visit to that bad house. His children will to- morrow morning notice the change. This moment he starts heavenward; and for all eternity he will bless God for this visit to the Brooklyn Tab- ernacle. heard that Talmge is an true.

Then he called the sailors. and they pulled. More came, until at last every man of the crew was tugging at the gem. He was an enterprising young mid- shipman, and it was his first voyage. It struck him. one day, when the ves- sel was at anchor, that a little sea- fishing might pass the time, so he ob- tained at line about as thick as a broomstick, attached a hook, and threw it overboard. The quality of East African ivory is for some reason or other consider- ed superior to that of the Congo or West Coast ivory. It brings a some- what higher price in the market. In order to indicate its place of origin the Custom House at Zanzibar affixes its stamp to each task and makes a small charge for thus guaranteeing to purchasers that the commodity is East African ivory. The profits at the business depend in part upon the ignorance or enlight- enment of the native seller. Not a few of the chiefs of East Africa are still ignorant of the fact that ivory is highly valued by the whites. If they have not learned this fact they will sell their ivory very cheap. one of the oldest of Ivory Marketsâ€"Itch" Prlees than on the West (hast. Zanzibar continues to send import- ant quantities of ivory to Europe. It is one of the oldest of ivory markets and was formerly one of the largest, but is now surpassed in the quantity of ivory collected by Matadi on the lower Congo. Elephant tusks are gathered in the far interior and brought to the coast on the backs of men. Sometimes business is good and sometimes it is poor according .to whether good luck attends the ivory collectors. Now and then they are so fortunate as to come across some native who has a large quantity of ivory buried in the ground; then again they will find a good many tusks in native villages where it is often used i to form a part of the fortifications‘ which every village must possess. Few animals are killed to increase the present ivory supply but most of the tusks are those the natives have been collecting for years. their coffin-lid and woke- than Ital Tom [luv that may otyou are eon-touted. and driven by sin in a m storm than thut which”. downmthemto‘fixinmundyet I pay God that you my. like the sailor, live to gebbome.
