Harsha Presonts the Shakes- verian Idea With Comments. “*Shakespeare's Idea of Whatis Wrong ‘With the World” was the subject of Rev, W, J. Harsha's sermon at the First Presby- terian church lust night. The scriptural quotation upplied yas from Isaiah xxiv., 4: *¥Phe world languisheth and fadeth away,” It is plain to everybody that there is some~ thing the matter with the world, Philoso- phy bas held its finger on the world's pulse and said: “Too fast!” Science has listened at the heary of the world and shaken its head and said: “Too wiry in its beat!” Medicine has tried to diagnose the case and has given out its wise conclusion: **There is decided derangement here!” = Poets and ora- tors and statosmen and philanthropists have been holding consultavion at the bedside of tho patient for ages, and the only result of their meditations bas been a universal con- victlon that there is something wrong, The whole globe is sick. Sho tosses restiessly in her dreams, she burns with fever and shiv- ers with cold, she moans in her pain and shrinks from the touch of the great Re. deemer, who alone can_do her good; and all her friends are being forced to the conclu- #100 that s00n she will die, as wauy plauets Before her have done, But it s equally plawn that the disease does not lie in pbysical creation primarily. ‘There is nothing wrong with the sunshine ias ¢ streams i a glory as of a smile from heaven ‘=to the sicikroom; there is nothing Wroug with the forest as the gentle winds of Autumn pluy hymos upon its leafy harp strings; there is nothing wrong with the rivers as they run o werrily toward the sea, We must look elsewhere for the disturbances and troubles which all men kunow to be in the world, and 1t is very fortunate that wa buve the assistanco of so clear-headed a thinker as Shakespeare in our search Where then does he locate the sore spot of the universe! The great poet agrees with the bible sayiug that wan is the loose wheel in the economy of nature, that man is the sore on the social body, and that what pain and w“?

Sin, then, Is ant that has laid _ wasto the beautiful garden in which God designed that man should always live, sin is the enemy ho has sown tares among our wheat stalks of peace ana virtue, Let oW you how firmly Shakespeare believed this by making a few quotations “Who lives that is not depr praves!’ or de- “AIL s oblique There's nothing | But direct villainy o1 in our cursed natures ' God amend ue, God amend !

O | unweeded "Thut grows 1o seed; things rank wnd gross in naturo ssess it merely.” 1 need hardly pause to show how thor- y all this agices with the scriptures, eprayity of man is ono of the plainest of the teachings of God's word, as for oxam- here it1s said: *Ihe heart is deceitful all things and desperately wicked; who can know it I'hc heart of the sons of men is full of evil, and madness is in_their hearts while they Iive.” “They are all gone oy are” altogettier become filthy that does go0d, 0o, not one,'’ No wan can bo a true interpreter of hun nuture who has mot graspad this truth. Shukespeare koew it, and Tennyson knows it, for we find the latter suying: very hoart, when sifted well, 1s a clot of warmer dust, Mixed with cunning sparks of hell.” And mot only did the “Thousand-souled Poct” believe in the depravity of man, but also in the perversity of our judgmen ont of which so much of the trouble of the world comes, Men aro always saying: *“lam a wan o son, of clear judgment; do you think [ cannot decide what 18 best and do what is right!” Ah, they forget that our Judenents are concerned in our ruin quite as N other part of our natures. kespeare speaks of this clearly : “When we i our viciousness grow bard, (O misery on't!) the wise gods seal our eyes ; n filth drop our elear judgments. Male us 1 crrors; laugh at us while we strut o our confusion. “What things are wa! Merely our awn traitors. And as in the Common eourse of all treason, we still See them reveal themselves, till they Attain to their abhor Contrives agamst his own nobility, in His proper stream o'crflows himself,” How trie to tho word of God is all this! Shukespeare is merely an echo of such utter- ances us the fellowing: “EFrom the wicked their light is withholden.” *The way of the icked is darkness, they know not at it they stumbl vil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the Lord understand all things.” How many poor feilows all around us practical illustra- tions of this perversion of judgment, result- ing from sin! Thoy drink what is poisonous to them, they do what is destructive to then, istraight for destruction, and all the time they think that they are models of ty und temperance! There is only oue explunation of such folly, and that 18 that sin has blinded them. And_altogether they illustrate what Aristotle said long ag Chiat which is best s not apparent except t9 a good man.’ . And then Shakespeare agroes with the bible in representing death as the result of gm. The shortness ot man’s life 18 onoe of the poet’s most familiar themes. Thus he say: “7Tis common; all that ive must die, Passing through nature to eternicy.” “Why, what is pomp, rule, reign, but earth and dust? Aud live we ow wo can, yet dic we must.” | “He who commands a uation Hath no commandment o’er the pulse of life." “The undiscovered bourna No travelier returns.” country from whose And Shakespeare exhorts every man to 50 live as he did, expressing hbis philosophy thus lo every day expect an embassage From my Redeemer to redeem my place.” In the same way the word of God tet that death s only the step 1to another and wo ought to be constantly on watch for its approach, “Dsath to a good wan,” Dr. Watts, ‘s but passing through a dark entry out of one little, dusky room of his father's house, into another which is fair and large, lightsome and glorious and divinely entertaining, Oh, may the rays and splendors of my heavenly apartment shoot far downward and guild tho dark entry with such a cheerful gleam as to banish every fear when I shall be called to pass through.” Thus we have seen righuly discovered what is wrong with the world; and the question now comes up: What does he teach us as the wiy to oscape from sin and prepare for the glories of the next world? 1 hive already pointed out to u his firm belief in Christ, the sou of God, But does he touch upon those graces and virtues which the bible clearly requires of us before we can exvect salvation? Yes, ho gives us a strictly orthodox viow of the sev- cral traits of Christian character. As, for example, be spcaks of the need of true re- pentance: DIl teach you how you shall arraign your conscienc And try your penitence, if it be sound, Or holiowly put on. Lest you do repont, As that the sin shame, Which sorrow is always towards ourselves, not heayven : Showing we'd not spare heaven as we love it, But as we stand in fear.” ch life, the that Shakespeare has brought you to this *Who by repentance is not satisfied Is not heaven or ecaruh-for these are pleased ; By peoitence the Eternal's wrath's ap- poased,” Ido not know in all theological literature & better commentary on true penitence than this, And the poet emphasizes wiso the need of prayer: My ending is dispair, Unless I be relieved by prayer; Whicn pierces so that it assaults Mercy itself aud frees all faults,” I you betnink yourself of any crime Uureconciled to heaven and grace, Solicit for it straight.” Av this point I leave the subject. I think I have proven the assertion with whicn 1 began, that Shokespeara teaches tho very same morality and religion that we flad in God's word, and if uny oue says, “I take the sentiments of the poet as against the doctrine of the church,” he simply does not know wbat the immortal bard teaches, Pseudo-intellectualism ought not to keep you away from a firm faith in Jesus Christ. for the grandest minds the world bas seon have accepted him s Lord and Savior. Yallinto line! The good aud the greut of earth and heaven beckon you to come over 1o their side’on this most important question, There is a noted picture in which the artist has represented a beautiful Italiun peasant girl amid the lovely flowers of her own charming country, and she is accompanied by her little sister, who is play pet kid. The whole vieture repr feet jnnocence aud foy. But at the twi- light hour, when the gloomy shadows creep across the room and haze the picture, it changes into the likeness of an ugly Turk, turbaned aud decked with all the foul gew- gaws of oriental taste. 5o sin transfers the beautiful world into a picture of hate and lust, and when the shadows of life begin to creep across it we fiud, for the first tima per. haps, what the real import of the likeness is, Let us then, get as much of this hateful ele- ment of sin out of our hearts and lives as possi Lot us live so puroly and sweetly thut no shadows shall fiud Haws or wints o us, and then it will be but @ blessed step rom this world to the vext, Beechiam's £ills act like magic on a weak stomuch, THE OM SAVED BY THE GOVERNOR Why a Vile ana Hardened Criminal Did Not Get His Pard In one of the Indiana prisons is a conviet who 18 serving a life sentence for the commission of ono of the most horrible of crimes, says the Indianapo- lis News.
