!
ELOQUENT DISCOURSE ENTITLED ;
"EREAD UPON THE WATERS."
the Itev. Kdwar? Niles Declares Tlinl the i
Opinion of the Worldly Economist is '
Not a Supreme Court Whose Decisions j
Are Binding on the Christian. "*
Brooklyn. X. Y.?Sunday, morning, in j
tne White Church (Bush wick Avenue Re- J
formed) the pastor. Rev. Edward Xiies. j
preached on Bread Upon the Waters." |
The text was from Kcclesiastcs xi: 1: j
. ''Cast thy bread upon the waters, for thou j
shalt find it after many days." Mr. Xiies ;
A said:
The book of Eeclcsiastes is the lite re- '
view of the wisest and richest man of his
day. Every statement has been tested.
A voun<* man might have said the same
thing with equal eloquence and convic,
tion, but the impression on the mind of
the elderly reader would be, 'Yes, his ad- j
vice is all very well in theory, but what ;
docs he know about life?"'
The words of the aged Solomon arc open i
to no such criticism. Our text is the first j
of the short, pithy sentences with which !
the teachings of his wonderful career are j
summed up.
la thought lie goes back to the early j
days of ids reign. Th.cn his country was !
insignificant. Jerusalem itself was a pi- |
o.necr city only thirty-three years old. liisj
people bore something of trie same vela- j
tion to the surrounding nations as did the
Boers of a dozen vcars ago to the Kuro* j
pean countries. They were strong, rvlig-1
ions self contained, with few extremes <>f |
poverty or wealth, who had partially en- j
slaved, partially exterminated, the orig- j
inal inhabitants of the land. Yet. thiv
were mostly isolated on their plantations I
and lacked the polish of refinement and
vulture which only comes with long settlement
of a country and contact with the
great world.
Solomon recalled how ardently he had j
entered into the work of putting his subjects
abreast of the times. He had widened
the borders of the land until thev
reached the lied Sea. There a dockvnrd
was established, a fleet of ships was built
and launched, marking the first ventures
cf the Jews in commerce.
Human nature being the same in all I
ages, we can he sure ihar many a Jewish j
fogy remonstrated. "What, take hardearned
money, the result of so much toil in
the fields, and put it in these tuos. to go i
on no one knows where, to return no 0:10 j
knows when, if ever': Young King, don't I
lie so foolish as to throw away our money |
on the sea.*'
The day when these ships sailed oft in
search of trade and proiit was likely made
the occasion of great pageant by the Coverninent
to counteract these grumblings,
but as week niter week went by ami
month followed month, nothing was heard
of those much discussed ships. The wiseacres
became ail the wiser, shook their
heads more knowinglv and croaked more
disconsolately. The time came, however,
when off in the dim distance the watcher
by the sea discerned a white speck upon
the water. Looking more intently, hesaw
here a ship, there another and behind
still more. When near enough to
be hailed all were found to be well. Their
venture to countries before unknown had
It-en crowned with success.
As the crews with their rick burdens
wended their way overland to -Jerusalem
the rumors 01 the profit- of over $11,000,000
from the single voyage preceded them, i
can imagine the smile of the aged Solomon |
as he recollected the consternation the
; ews caused to the conservative croakers. I
So evident were the benefits derived
from the policy of putting out money for
long periods because of the good returns
in the end. that a ship building fever
seized the nation. Three year voyages
were undertaken and prospered, until the
quaint, primitive Jewish community was
fairly gorged with wealth, silver was as
stones in the streets of the Capital City,
magnificent 'palaces and other public buildings
were erected where the rude huts had 1
I'-iIf-.i 11... i i ',(-(1 1,1 become the 1
contempt *il a 11 countries. Distinguished
royal visitors traveled over water and desert
to see the grandeur with tiieir own
eves, to lind that it was more remarkable
than depicted in even 4he most plowing
stories. Stub was tiie mental vision that
came before the reminiscent writers of
Kcciesiastes. The eanse was for that truly
phenomenal industrial revolution he put
into the precept of our text. "Cast thy
w bread, or thy capital, upon the waters. Invest
it in some enterprise that does not
bring: in an immediate result: it shall return
unto you as it did uv.to me. iniiniteiy
multiplied, even though it inav be niter
many days." It is another way of saying.
"Nothing venture, nothing have."
Of course, Solomon ran many.ri-ks. Jlis!
fleet might, have been shipwrecked. his J
crews destroyed by the savages visited,
tney were in dangrt' of losing their way
forever in tho.se uncharted seas; yet. although
his t yes were wide oj>cn to the j
chance of loss. he didn't hesitate to act.
The rule or greater economy propounded
in the advice. "C.isi thy bread upon the |
waters, for thou shalt find it after many j
days." is good for our own age. Those j
who are content to do as did their fathers j
may make a living. That is all. The shift- |
iess young man who lives from hand to
mouth, satisfied if he barely meets his
9 bills, we regard as only less than erim- :
inal. The father, with a family looking i
to him for support, who tacitly assumes
til at be is to be well and keep his position
indefinitely, who lays up mjtiiing in the ;
Punk, mah.es no investment. ;oin< no fraternal
order, pays no insurance. Ins more I

The long. long hours, patiently spent in I
helping the lit tie ones understand great i
mora! ar.ti religious truth, represent so I
niuc-Ji time gone from you wiiii no immediate.
possibly no ultimate, advantage to
yourself, but. ilie rtturn will be in the
cT.aracter of him you ltave been training.
The agony o? pvavirs for wayward sons,
straying daughters, indifferent friends are
all heard, and will be answered if we keep '
on casting our heart aches, our time and .
our longings upon the apparently unheeding
waters. 1
How many are the temptation* to discouragement
expend;, cd by the Christian '
worker. The Sunday-school 1 earner conies
home tired out by the seemingly unsuccessful
attempt to impress or even interest < i
those whom she lias been teaching. ^ A

conception merits Solomon's eharaeterization.
"All tills Is vanity and striving after
wind." ;
The opinion of the worldly economist is ,
not a supreme court whose decisions arc
binding on the Christian. Nothing done J
for others is ever b*si. if performed for
Cod and humanity with faith in results
the reward will be inevitable. 1
J Hit tor men and purer women are the
certain products of every teacher's spiritual
venture, in casting her bread upon the ,
waters, l'cr the return it may sometime
bring.
it is ant to be a far cry to the manifestation
01 results. The warn* days (it our
text may mean nov< r on this corner of the
universe, so far as the poeketiiook. the <
standing in the community, the \ uigibIo
influence upon others is concerned. Ye;
even so.
"Ours is the gracious service whence
Comes, day by day, the recompense:
The hope, the trust, the purpose staid,
The fountain and the noonday shade!
And were this life the utmost span.
The only end and aim of man.
Better the toil of holds like those
Than waking dreams and slothful ease."
Though the recipients be unworthy of
our charity, unappreciative of the value
Ave attach to time, abuse our benevolence,
the money we give, the hours avc use, the
thoughts we devote to them prove to us J
who have tried it that
''What Ave spent, avc had.
What Ave saved, Ave lost.
What avc gave, avc have.''*

returns to us in a different form, but in so
satisfactory a way as to make it our one
regret that we failed to invest more .titer
the same fashion. The more money we
give away the less remains in our bank account.
:i?c more sunshine is in on." faces
and hearts. The more intelligence we scatter
abroad tiie more we glean for ourselves.
The more prayers we offer up for
others, the better we know how to prav
for our own needs. The mote our hearts
sympathize with the pains of others the
laracr will our hearts become.
The more we disregard the worldly wise
rule of selfishness the greater is our true
prosperity. Says .[?inn 0. Holland:
"Hive and spend.
And be sure that Hod wiil send,
For only in giving and spending.
I)o you fulfill the object of His sending.''
Now we enjoy the interest. The time
| will be wiien the accrued principal of our
courageous investment in stock will finally
come to maturity. In that great day we
shall find that every cup ot cold water,
everv old coat, every piece of bread, every
kind word, every call on the sick, if imI
polled by love, was done only incidentally
to the unworthy and really to the All
Worthy. We shall hear the voice of our
beloved Master say. "inasmuch as ye have
done it unto one of these My brethren,
even the.-e least, ve have done it unto Me."
Then will the truth of the old Turkish
proverb be manifest: "What you give in
charity in this world yon take with you
after death. Do good. Throw it into the
water. It the fi>h does not know it, God
does."
Better Than We Know How.
Doing as well as we know how is ordinarily
considered a pretty creditable performance.
One who can honestly say that
lie lias done as well as lie knows howis
likely to take credit to himself for his
doing; and. in passing judgment on another
for his conduct, we arc inclined to
commend him if he. or if we, can say that
lie has done as well as he knows how. Yet
just hcoe is a common mistake of irankimi.
All of ;;s ought to do bettor than
we know how. Doing only as well as we
know how may be a lack and a failure on
our part.
Doing better than one knows how. doing
better than one's best, is the duty and
the ].radical attainment of every person
wiiii wants to iill his place in the world
and to help Ins follows as he suonhi. One
who expects to he limited, in his work
and in his endeavor*, hv the best that he
has done, or by the best that others have
deiiC, or by whni he can do, is practically
without the noblest ambition, and certainly
without the highest aspirations. To
be stopped by the thought of the impossible
is to he li'dd within the bounds ot
the ordinary and the commonplace.
All substantial progress is by doing
better titan one knows how. Id very great

STEAMSHIP KIOWA SUNK.
Mrw Clyde Liner Sent to Bottom in
Boston Harbor in Collision With
.Steamer Admiral Dewey.
In a blinding storm which swept Boston
harbor Saturday afternoon, the
new Clyde Line steamer Kiowa, inward
bound from Jacksonville, Fla.,
and Charleston, S. C., v,*as rammed and
sunk by the steamer Admiral Dewey,
3f the United States Fruit Company,
outward bound for Port Antonio, Jamaica,
and Port Limon, Costa Rica.
Captain Chichester and the entire
:rew of the Kiowa, thirty men.
were rescued by a tug. The Admiral
Dewey sustained practically no dam
age, and after laying to for the purpose
of rendering possible assistance,
she proceeded on her voyage.
With several passengers- and a big
general freight cargo, the Admiral
Dewey sailed from the city shortly after
12 o'clock. Owing to the driving
snow storm the Dewey was making her
way out at slow speed. A few miles
beyond Boston Light, tne Kiowa appeared
through the clouds of mist and
snow, directly ahead. Before the
course could be shifted the steamers
collided. Tlie Admiral Dewey struck
the Kiowa a terrible blow oil the port
sharp prow of the fruiter cutting in
sharp prow of the fruiter cuttisg in
for a considerable distance.
The damaged craft immediately began
to fill. A tug which was passing,
ran alongside the Kiowa and took off
her captain and crew. This was a
most difficult task, owing to the heavy
sea, and in attempting to jump from
their own vessel to tha tug some of
the Kiowa's men fell into tne water.
They were rescued, however. The
Kiowa sank shortly after the accident.
She had a big cargo or lumber, cotton,
naval stores, iron and general merchandise.
The Kiowa lies on an even keel,
with her masts and top of her smokestacks
projecting above the water.
Her decks are covered by eleven feet
of water at low tide, and great difficulty
will be experienced in lifting her.
The Kiowa was the latest addition
to the Clyde fleet, having been built
at Philadelphia early in ,the present
year. She had was a steel, two-masted
three-decked vessel, 300 feet long, with
22 1'cet depth of hold; net tonnage
2.254 tons and gross tonnage 2,949.
New England Storm-Swept.
After one of the mildest Christmas
days for many years, a wild winter's
storm broke over New England Saturday,
and. as usual, was accountable for
a number of marine disasters
Up to 7 o'clock three wrecks had
been reported, while several other
vessels had been in distress during the
day. One of the wrecks, a dredger,
which sunk within six miles of the
wharves of Boston, resuTted in the loss
of three men; but in the case of the
other two, the sinking of the steamer
Kiowa, off BostofT light, and the wreck
of the barge John W. Mackey, off
Watch Hill, R. I., everyone was saved.
,The storm center passed over nortuern
New England during the forenoon
and the snowfall throughout that section
was heavy, especially in Maine
and New Hampshire, while wind velocities
reached more than fifty miles
an hour were reported from some
points.
CHURCHMEN AS ROBBERS.
Bank Presided Over by Priests and
Prelates a Den of Crime.
Advices from Prague, capital of Bohemia.
state that the St. Wenzel Savings
bank, now in the bankruptcy
court, will probably pay no more than
5 per cent to its depositors, and the
papers are loud in advising people not
to mix "religion and business." The
St. Wenzel bank was presided over by
Monsignor Drozd. while abbots, prelates,
deacons and other high ecclesiastics
were on the board of directors.
The trial of these gentlemen shows
that $5.000.0()o or $?!.OQ0,000 were stolen
during the last twenty-five years
without anybody in authority noticing
it.
The directors admit that their hank
statements were a compound of lies
for twenty or more years, and that the
thieving cashiers and tellers regarded
every deposit as a "clean profit."

J HOME AQUARIUMS.
I More in Demand Than Ever?Stock
and Plants in Great Variety.
j "We now sell more aquariums and
| aquarium stock and plants than ever,"
j said a dealer in such things. "The
i increase is due in large measure no
: doubt to the establishment in this
city of the great puolic aquarium in
| Battery Park.
"People go there and study the
j fishes and gc\t interested in them,
i and then they want an aquarium of
i their own. It is a fascinating pursuit,
| the care of an aquarium, and one in
j which not only children, but adults
may easily become deeply interested.
"Dealers carry a far greater assorti
ment of fishes and of aquatic plants
j than they formerly did, including
j tueayci iliiU UUMUCl luau ^5?ci.
! You can buy nowadays, for instance,
j goldfish for as little as five cents, or
i you can pay. ?25 for some of the very
| remarkable specimens that come
i from Japan, but you don't need to pay
j anything like so much as that to get
j specimens of very great beauty.
""Besides the many varieties of goldj
fish, there now sold for aquarium
j stock fishes of many other species, in;
eluding simple little fishes and fishes
j that are curious and fishes that are
beautiful. A balanced aquarium in
which there are fishes that we become
individually interested in is something
very different from a globe of
goldfish.
"Fishes of the more curious and
beautiful varieties ibr small aquarium
stock are imported from Japan, China,
India and Germany. Wd export to
