Mending Our Nets to Win Souls for God
In a crowded tabernacle Dr. Talmage urges pastors to mend their nets not fight each other. He likens faith to a fisherman's net, warns against oversized meshes, entanglement with other nets, and urges heart work, patience, and faith. He cites James and John mending nets, calls for unity and continual personal reform, and urges sweeping efforts to land many souls for Christ.

Parable on sacrifice and nets alongside civic oddities
A sermon contrasts Christ’s sacrifices with ours behind a call to mend nets like Galilean fishermen. A Detroit Free Press anecdote describes a man trying to join a jury to aid a friend, then exits puzzled. A note suggests thorough bathing for four year olds in cold weather.
