[I AN ELOQUENT SUNDAY SERMON BY } B SHOP C. C. McCABE. 1 X? ' 4 Scbjecl: God's Littie Ones* j Brooklyn, N. Y.?Bishop C. U. Mc- ^ Cabe preached in the Hanson Place i M. E. Church Sunday morning. The j Rev. Charles E. Locke, the pastor, con- . ducted the service. Bishop McCabe ^ chose for his subject "God's Little j Ones," and preached from the text , IsaiaJf lx:2I>: "And a little one shall ( become a thousand and a small one a 3 strong nation. 'I, the Lord, hath said } it, in his time." He said: ] There are two thoughts that claim . our attention as we study this text, j One is the kind of workers God chooses < to do His greatest work in this world? j the little ones; and. second, the possible ] rapidity with which God's work may go forward in this world. Cod chooses the lowly to do His great work. The history of the world never yet , has been fairly written. We know j wl^at the great have done, we know ( what kings and emperors and generals j and philosophers and poets and inven- j tors have done, but the Macauley has ? not yet arisen to trace out in history l, what God's little ones have done, yet ] the history of the world cannot be fair- , ly written without telling the story : ( of their lives, because they have done t so much for the world, and what oth- ^ ers have done would have been in j vain had it not been for what God's j iittlo ones have accomplished. He j chose the lowly. "God hath respect j unto the lowly, but the proud He ] knoweth afar off." He loves the lowly . heart that trusts in Him. What an \ impediment to Christian work is pride! We cannot build up a strong Chris- i tian character \vitnout numinty. jhu- < mility comes from the Latin word "hu- ] mus," which means "the ground" ? ( the ground on which to build a strong ] Christian character. Its corner atone ( and foundation stone must be humility, ( and if the cha:..cter lack that grace, j It -will not stand the test of time and < temptation; but, with humility, the i Christian character may be built up ] with a symmetry and universalness that will endure through life and eter- ] nity. What do you think of this pas- 1 sage? "I, the high and lofty one that , inhabiteth eternity, I will dwell in the ; high and holy places with him also | that is of a contrite and humble spir- j it."' God chooses as His associates the , humble and the contrite. Our .Lord carried on His work after ( the same plan. He chose the humble , n n/1 +n Am All f uuu. ivwijr ??oiuao miu onui ujcui vui. to preach His gospel. And one day they came back to Him surprised and delighted with their experience, and^ they said: "Master, even the devils" are subject to us in Thy name," and it is written that at that time Jesus rejoiced in spirit and said: "Father, 1 thank Thee because Thou bast bidden these things from the wise and prudent and bast revealed them unto babes. Even so, Father, for. so it. seemeth good in Thy sight." Paul understood this well when be wrote to the Corinthians: "Not may wise men after the flesh, not many ipjghty, not many noble are called; but God bath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise, and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty, and the base things of the world and things which are despised bath God chosen; yea, and things ] whi'ch are "not to bring to naught i things that are, that no flesh should ] glory in His presence." How low He ( gets it down!

It was a little added weakness to that wo had already, poverty added to the poverty we had already; it was an infant's wail added to'what Paul calls the "groan of creation." That was God's way of answeringman. I will just call your attention to the possible rapidty with which the kingdom of God can grow in this world, "a little one becoming a thousand." That is a "tremendous rate of gain; it seems as if it could not be so. "We say Isaiah was a poet; a mystical man and exaggerated sometimes, but this is no exageration. It has often been the case. Yea, a small one }ias become a nation in the history of <the onward march of the kingdom of Jesus Christ, 'our Lord. I believe that Gtod wanta His kingdom to grow rapidly, and 1 think that was the spirit of Jesus when He told His disciples the parable of the talents. On another occasion He gave them another parable of the rich man who before going away gave each of his servant a pound and on his return required his own kwith usury. One man said: "Lord, Thy pound hath gained tea pounds." That U1 A Vl/l c was u ujj; jjcrtcuia^c ul JUIUCOI. v* another said:* "Lord, Thy pound-liatli gained five pounds." That was a pood percentage, and Jesus said: "The kingdom of heaven is like that." That is the way invested lives may grow; that is the way life, no matter how humble, may grow; <11iat is consecration. That is the teaching of these two parables. Now these are commercial figures. Let us take them into the light and try to understand them. In the parable the master speaks of three rates of gain. When the man who had five talents brought five more he was worth 100 per cent, to his master, and l he who had two and brought two more was also worth 100 per cent, to t his piaster, but when the man who had ; only one pound brought five pounds ] more he was worth 500 per cent, to ( his master, and the man whose one t pound had gained ten pounds was < worth 1000 per cent, to his master; and i .lesus said: "The kingdom of heaven is like that." All those rates of gain t are possible in the kingdom of heaven, t We cannot receive it right off. Let U6 trv to romnrehend the Master's mean- 1 ing. Six per cent.?we know all about \ that?will do wonders if we will only ] give it a little time. t In 1G20 the island of Manhattan was i bought by the white man from the In- i dians for $24, which is an insigniti- ; cant sum. Yes, but put it out at interest at six per cent, and add interest . to interest and let it grow for 285 years and how much would you have then? The $24 would then Lave in- ' creased to $192,000,000. r.nd that is the way the kingdom of heaven ?jght to grow. And if you keep that money ( out at iuterest for 450 years it will j be able to buy Manhattan Island with j all there is on it. and then there will j be enough left to buy every State in ' the Union, and then there will Gtill be enough left to buy Great Britain. And if left out at interest for 500 years there would be enough to buy the Lulled States, England and Germany. ! And the Master said: "The kingdom i of .heaven is *Jke that," and that is the < way it ought to grow, and that is the ] way it would grow if we would simply < keep the idea of the power and com- < -rpeutidUspMtual interest of the church ] of fioO, It you kept out tfco RTJEitii ' Interest added to Interest for GOO years it would -wreck the "world. SL" per cent! That is entirely too small a rate Df gain to suit my soul. What does it mean? It means this: That here is the church of 100 members instrumenlal in the conversion of six soul9 to Christ in a year. I would not be satisfied with 1hat rate at all. One hun3red per cent, is the least rate of gain that any Christian church ought to think worthy of the kingdom of God. The bells of the millennium would be ringing before we oied if we only tvould keep our soul winning for a few, rears. It is not difficult to win a soul. [ have been trying to work out this iroblem for years?trying to be worth something for ,iesus. One night 1 arrived at New Haven, Conn., and took i hack at midnight to the house where [ was to stay. When the hackman isked for his fare I dropped a quarter nto his hand, and, grasping it, said: 'Good night, sir! I hope to meet you n glory some day." He jumped on the jox, whirled his horse around, and was gone. I did not expect to see him again. 4-way after midnight my host knocked it my chamber door and said: "A lackman ?.& here, acting queerly. He lavs he wants to see you and ha6*"got to see you to-night." I said: "Let. lim come in." I arose and threw a shawl-over me, and in came a great stalwarts hacfcman with - his whip* in bis hand and tears running down his cheeks and he said: "If I meet you in glory I have got <to turn around, for I am not going that way. I have come to ask you to pray for me. I could not keep away." What a joy it was to pray for that man! He went out comforted by God's holy spirit, and I believe, I was worth 100 per cent to^my Waster that night. The possible growth of tbe kiugdom is what I am talking about. In I860, when the war was over, I svas on a train going from Lancaster, Ohio, and saw a drunken soldier sitting by himself. Nobody would sit by a Irunken soldier, but itbat is the very kind of man I like to sit by. I sat lown by him and by and by stole my, arm gently around his neck and whispered to him: "Comrade, when are you going to give your heart to Jesus Christ and be a Christian?" He , looked embarrassed and got up and went to another part of the train. [ thought I had offended him. I went that night to pteach in the little town 5f Putnam, where I once was pastor, and there sat that man and his sister beside him. We had a glorious meeting that night. I did not eee him again for thirty-five years, but one night I was aoout to speak to the Grand Army in the old Dutch Church an Fifth avenue. There were 1800 soldiers "there. A splendid looking man came down the aisle and I said to a gentleman: "Who is that man?" and he said: "That is Colonel Hadley, the head of the St. Bartholomew Mis sion. Me nas ueen lnsirumemui iu planting fifty-four rescue missions in this country." I went down, and said: "Brother Hadley, I am glad to see rou. I have heard about your work, but I never saw you before." "Oh, yes j-ou .have," he replied. "Thirty-five rears ago I was sitting on a train and fou came and sat down by me and wanted to - know when I was going to be a'.-Christian and give my: heart to God. I never got over that question. STou have seen me -efore." I believe it is possible for every Christian to ;ain over 100 per cent, for our blessed Lord every year. There are souls that are worth a thousand per cent.

During the past two years tie Hungarian Government Las been actively propagating temperance teaching in the public schoole of tbat country." The work has been prosecuted under the direction of the Department of Religion and i'ublic Instruction. This work took active form April 24, 1903, when the Minister of this department of the Government issued a circular addressed to the Inspectors of Second- ary Schools, the Higher Schools for Young Girls, and the Commercial and Industrial Schools, warning the pupils to avoid intoxicating liquors. It was somewhat of a preliminary nature, the nnpnincr nnrflornnh' readine: "i'he ravages caused by alcoholism become day by day more appalling In tbe midst of our people. Everywhere we see this scourge arising, and in its , train coiues misery, the deprivation of soul and body, apathy, decreased aptitude for work, the loosening of the sacred bonds of family life, which are the only solid foundations of the state and of social order, the declines of religious conviction; in tine, a general decay in morals and physique." The above official utterance, translated from tbe Hungarian language, is a rather fierce indictment of tlie ravages of drink in a country where American ignoramuses insist that tbe widespread use of "light wines and beer" ha6 solved tbe temperance problem. Later in the same circular, after a reference to tbe schools as an important centre of information and influence, the Minister continues: 'Thave judged it right to enjoin you by this ^present circular to take every nossible care that in the schools under your-care the pupils of both sexes be sufficiently instructed as to the injurious, effects of alcoholism, and -with this object, the'teachers are to se^Jt the aid of choice articles contained in manuals showing how injurious alcoholism is on literals and public prosperity. Be pleased also to exhort all the members fix of the teaching corps in village schools, L and in towns, to neglect no opportunity T for forming temperance societies, and E signify to them that I will not fail to ir take count of their activity in this lo matter." ? The French word alcoolisme, the nat- T ural equivalent of the English word bi "alcoholism," is generally accepted lij throughout Europe - to desigBftte, in si general, the evil effects of the use of n< alcohol. Its meaning, therefore, is not pi confined to the disease designated in h< English by "alcoholism," but has been lo broadened in use to include all of the ol physical evils growing out of its use. fc It is also beginning to be used to uesig- m nate the use of drink itself. Dr. Malti w Helenius, the Finnish savant "who car- m ries fourteen- languages under his hat, fli and who is the author of "Der Alko- et holfrage,".'published first in German w ,,by Fischer,.of. Jena, has invented the w word "alcoholology" to designate the le whole alcohol problem in general, in- lo eluding the literature on the subject. This word is now coming into common ni use in Northern Europe. ai On the following month, May C, tbe si Minister sent out to the inspectors of ai all elementary public schools another tl circular, in which he again discussed S( the ravages of alcohol. In this circu- gJ lar, he declared: , it: "It is a gulf that swallows up the m health of the body and the soul, de- b< stroys the forces physical and moral, ai leads to tbe overthrow of the nervous tl system, troubles the peace of the do- tl mestic hearth, and ends in the ruin of ol families. The habit of alcohol amongst G the young Inevitably leads to intern- tl peranee; and it then asks the Genera! lo Councils to see that children under ol fifteen (the age of compulsory school tl attendance) are forbidden to frequent A taverns, or to be present at dances given ifa public halls." ' "j On the first of last September the c< same Minister addressed another circu- w lar to the General Inspectors of Prim- oi ary Schools, in which they are exhorted G to see that the societies formed of tl scholars h( "Are habituated to politeness and so- Be briety through efforts to turn them away from frequenting taverns' and t places or tnat cnaracier; xor 11 jb m- uj tended that these societies should take ji au active part in the light -with alco- oi holism." 1 tl The inspectors -were enjoined to G "Enlighten the scholars first (on the tc injurious effect of alcohol), prevent 01 them frequenting the said establish- m ments, inspire them -with a salutary ?( fear, and in fine, give them a good ex- w ample.", G In another circular of the same date, H addressed to the Inspectors of the Sec- "< ondary Schools, the Superior Schools for Young Girls, and the Industrial and Commercial Schools, the Minister said: "In order that the efforts made by <Ij the schools in the tight with alcoholism, tl may be crowned 'with success, it is hi above all necessary that the teachers as and the professors themselves should g; know all the dangers comprised in this u scourge, and all the ravages it causes, hi physically and morally; it is necessary a also that they should know the great- hi ness of the struggle and the scientific tl results which have constrained the civilized world to take part in this noble gc fight, in which knowledge is essential jb to conviction." jr American scholars who are prone to ]0 insist (between drinks) that the Hunr sf carians have settled the liquor temper- sc nuce question by the widespread use of 11 "wines and beer," should read these tc official circulars of the Minister of Religion and Public Instruction of the T, Hungarian Government.
