fhf iisv. Dr. X. 7?IcGoe Waters Says Thai
v A jt'Yau Woulfl ,\^laia Earthly Profperlty
Christ )Iu?t De Your Teaclier-The
True Prescription For All Scholarship.
P.rtootn.vv. V.?Dr. X. MeGee vva
tcrs, paster of the Tompkins Avenue Congregational
Church, took as his subject
^ ^ Sunday morning. "Rewards of Righifeous*
" ness." Iiis text was from Matthew vi:
33: "Seek ye first the kingdom of God
and His righteousness, and all these things
rfiall be added unto you." Dr. Waters
6aid in the course of his excellent sermon:
> y.> From the beginning until now man's
* search has been for the golden age. Sometimes
he named it the Golden Fleece:
sometimes Koly Grail. Plato prophesied
it in a republic yet to be. Banyan, alter
a weary pilgrimage, found jt beyond the
Delectable Mountains. Baeon saw it in
/Atlantis, rising out of the midst of an unsailed
sea. It always afar off and in the
future. Like the pot of gold at the foot
of the rainbow, it is always over the next
hill. t
Jesus also prophesied a golden age?
, called it "the Kingdom of God," and found
it in the present time. For a long time
men went hu gry. and lo! there wes always
plenty in the ground?when they
"scratched the earth ?ith a hoe it laughed
with a ham est." They prized diamonds.
n" and lo! they were always in the river beds
for :ae finding. They shivered for warmth,
r and lo! coal was stored under the hills.
Thcv longed for some pack horse, and lo!
giants were chained in every flowing river.
They were always looking for the
golden age. Jesus said: "Look within?
the Kingdom 01 God is within you."
Men are always expecting the Kingdom
?f Gcd to come through some device of
their making. They cry, "Let us have a
better government and a better wage, and
if we will have the Kingdom of God; let us
toil and hoard a mountain of gold, and
when our barns are filled we will have the
Kirgdom of vrod. Let us search after
knowledge,. nd when we are wise we will
fca\e the Kingdom of God. Let us trade
our strength for popularity and reputation,
x when with the laurel we have bound our
' hrnw u-e son!! hp h'psspd."
Jesus says just the opposite: "Seek the
Kingdom of God and you will have no labor
problem, for you will have : n increased
T wage; seek the Kingdom of God, and you
,#wili find wealth; seek the Kingdom of
(tod. and you will be enrolled among the
chil'^-en of immortality." Men say, "Let
us get rich and we will be content." Jesus
says. "Be content, and you will be
rich." Mc~ say, "Let us get wisdom, and
we will be happy." Jesus says, "Bo happy
and you will be wise. Men say. "If we
can gain all these things, like houses and
lands, we will be the children of the Kingdom
of God." Jesus says, "Enter into the
Kingdom of God, and you will have all
these things."
When will we believe the teachings of
Jesus? He was ahead of F s time. We
are growing up to Him, to understand Him
better than early generations. Ever * say?
iag of His we find true as law and fact.
Take that saying of His, "The meek shall
inherit the earth.*' It was too hard for
His age. But time, the great tester, pronounces
it pure gold. The wise man everywhere
sees the exceeding reward of meekly
Cess. They get who forget.
Jesus said to His disciples; "It is ex*
jpcdient for vou that I go away." They
could not believe that then^ But when a
Song time hath passed we know that really
death is a benefit, and that great men arc
never so valuable to their disciples as after
they have gone away from the earth. The
text, "Seek first the Kingdom of God."
~ etc., is one of those sayings that we have
' to grow up to. Generally men have read
it in some mystical way. The*/- have regarded
it as true only in some peculiar religious
sense. But it is a literal iit-t; it is
truth;, it is law of the uyivws-i*. Virtue
i* the road to fame., Godhnufti. is profitable
in this world.
"And all these things shaF h? added."
Jf What things? Christ ha# jirst- named
them?food and clothes ami tie material
prizes for which men st*t?e-. Men are
swayed by motives as tr?*?s *re by the
winhs. Tell me what you >-no?i love and I
^will tell you what you wi.l !?<:. You love
y knowledge with a passion?the- Greek did
and he became a scholar^ y;c love power?the
Roman did and rlci^c is yet law
5iver for the nations; you io-re beauty?
ohn Keats did and he bsuane a poet.
' y Among the motives that Fjxk.7 men's daily
lives, we may put first chew? three?the
pursuit of wealth, the gaining of knowledge
and the winning oI Panic. How can
these things best be won ? According to
? Jesus, by a deep hearted jcsrnh after the
Kingdom of God.
Wealth?the laws of wealst are the laws
?f righteousness. Knowlsdge?the .kingdom
of knowledge is the l^irgdom of God.
Fame?"the Lord knoweth. the way of the
righteous, but the ways d the wicked
shall rot.*'
Let us look at the world of vcalth. The
* savage has no prosperity; it is only the
civilized man who grows rich. What is
wealth? Emerson tells us i* begins "with
a tight roof that keeps out fhe rain and a
gcod pump .that yieids sweet waters, and
horses, or a locomotive to rrji.s the land,
and a boat to cross the sc.>." Rut. whence
come the roof and the DumjJ and the ship
and the locomotive? Man did not invent
them; he only discovered tfc<rr,i. They are
^ the laws of God dressed up ia clothes of
wood and steel and stow". The laws of
wealth are the laws cf righVouseess. Men
go toward prosperity as the* find the laws
of God.
Again, how do we get to-alta? There *
* are three possible ways. A ' ran may beg :
it, he may steal it, cr a oiftn may earn it. j
Eut neither pauoer nor 'rej-gar increases J
the wealth of the community. Only by j
the lawfc of industry and *?*iOfl can we increase
wealtn. Rut the hrs labor and
vision are the laws of the ivngaom of God.
Barbarism he> been, with poverty, defined
as "society without iho commandments."
Contrariwise, thru, civilization,
with all its houses and lit ds and stocks 1
ar.d bonds, is society witr< :he command-;
ocnts. Violation cf the laws of God in j
every age means bankruptcy. Obedience j
to the laws of God ir. every age makes fori
* * prosperity. History writes down the tale
of einnires. When she writes down "Pyramid*"
aad "Parthenon" and "Hanging
Carder?," she expresses their desolation
bv saying ever their ruins, "These neonle ?
.. " .f% * 11 x ? _ x _ __1 _ :
m, lorgjt CjOC., a:.ci ncnce incir waste piaces. ;
She wrtes down "London," "Chambsr of?
Commerce." "Shipyard?." "Temple." "Library."
and espressos their glory by saying.
"These have remembered God?hence
their prosperity."
The Bible pronounces "Anathema" i
/ against those who "make haste to get
r-'ch"?that is, they who, despising the laws
^ God, take a short cut to prosperity.
T neir wealth i_ poverty: their eain is loss.
The mistress \vr.o holds Lack the just
wage i'c: i the maid: the borrower v.-ho rekuics
to return to the lender; the government
that debases its people with debased
goiu. mev temporarily tain; but such
wealth destroys the possessor and is iike
he wrecker's handful of coin, cleaned front
-5* ?.he beach to which he has beguiled an
argosy: is like the camp follower's bundle
<pf iags .tolen from the breast of men j
slab, iit battle; it like the coin oi' Juda?-y !
only blcod money paid to buy a potter's;
fc. C wherein liberty and justice and prosperity
shall at last be burled .n the grave
1 of dishonor. Way back in the Old Testament
we have Moses saying: "Thou shad;
not have diverse measures in thy sanc^
tuaiy." The words call up for us a scene
from that far ofi' time. There are booths
with baskets of tigs and grapes and golden
*
- - - : *' . ? T '
wheat" and 'bottles of oil and silks had
cloths, and the merchant has two sets of
scales?one scale, v.ith a large pan. in
which he bays the grapes from the husbandman.
and another, with a *'mail pan,
in which he sells the grapes to the housewife.
And the King begins to pay his
men in debased coin, and hone?tv and integrity
and. justice are being exterminated.
and there is growing up a people with
lying King and lying merchants and ra;se
words. The old prophet rises in his anger
and says: "A false measure is an abomination
unto the Lord." Any falsehood in
commerce at last poison* the very foundation
of civilization. The city and the
nation and the individual man who have
forgotten God and His laws do not stand
fob a long time in the world of commerce.
The laws of wealth arc the laws of
Tf vrvi tvniild become rich.
if you would attain prosperity. if you would
multiply houses and lands and banks, if
you would make a desert place bloom as
the rose, let Christ be your teacher. "Seek
first the kingdom or His righteousness and
all these things shall be added unto you."
What is knowledge? How do we gain
knowledge? There sits Thomas Carlyie.
the lonesomest ir.an in England, and one
of the poorest, feeding his shaggy intellect
on French revolution, storm of modern
ages. When he speaks we call him our
greatest prophet and scholar. And his
message is: "I have found Cod reigning
among all peoples." He writes down for
us the laws of divine retribution which
run through the nation. Like.the old
Scandanavian Titan that he is, he drinks
the liquid fire of divine wrath out of the
skuil of perished empire. And he smacked
his Puritan lips as though it was ?savory
wine. Knowledge is finding out divine
laws. There is Charles Dickens. He is
not satisfied to meet people on the street
as we do and shake hands with them and
learn their names. But. looking into their
hearts and homes and haunts and sins
with sympathy, with pathos and with rarest
humor, he writes his books. These
books become a sort of Bible of the submerged
tenth of society, and in them we
find written down the great divine laws
which govern action and conduct and character.
He is the poor man's prophet, because
he found oh 'the heart of the poor
man the handwriting of God. All knowledge
is revelation.
^Seeking the way God made the stars go,
Kepler became an asironomer. Seeking the
wav the world was made. Wallace became
a scientist. .Seeking tlie mysteries and secrets
of the human soul and God's doing
therein. Kant became a philosopher. Seeking
to find out how God wrought upon human
nature. Shakespeare penetrated into
the soul depths of lago, Hamlet, Desdemona.
Richard, Henry and Lear, and
transcribing into words what he found
written there, he has given us his great
dramas. Lo! the dramas of Shakespeare
are almost another book of God in which
we find written the divine law of retribution
and forgiveness and sacrifice and redemption.
Augustine comes and his one
word is law, but it is the law of God.
Browning comes and his one word is inspiration.
but it is the inspiration of God.
And Beecher and Phillips Brooks come and
their one word is love, but it is the love
of God. Save he bring us a word of God,
the wisdom of the scholar i.; foolishness.
Have you ever seen the shimmering of
a lake -when the sun was playing in its
surface? Have you seen the gleams of sunlight
dancing like angels on the water?
You know the glory was in the sun, not
in the water. The sun was the source; the
waters were clothed in a borrowed glory.
If you have ever stood in a great valley
surrounded by mountains, and heard the
echoes repeated from mount to mount,
some loud, some soft, some distant, some
near at hand, you know the voice was not
in the mountains. The mountains only
carried the voice. So great scholars are
only waters and mountain peakIt ia
God Almighty who speaks. Tt is His glory
that shines. There is a difference in men.
The difference between great men and little
men always consist in this?the greai
man is always listening for the voice of
God. The little man is taken up with the
sound of his earthly on-going. The Jews
heard a sound afcd said: ' It thundered.'*
Jesus standing with them knew "it was an
angel tliat had spoken unto Him." Wisdom
is revelation. There is no. other way
if you would be a scholar; if you would
wear a scholar's crown and hive a scholar's
power, you must seek and know face
to face and to find out His ways, which
are above our ways, and His words, which
are above our words. Here is the prescription
for all scholarship: "Seek first the
Kingdom of God a.nd His righteousness
and all these things shall be added unto
you."
In every age men believe that fame can
be bought for a price, and so they 'tear
down tneir warehouses and build larger.
So they multiply their fleets until their
white sails cover every sea; so-they get for
' 3 AM/) ijfnol'C
themselves houses ana ianu? ?uu
and bonds. When they die the market
drops down for a dav or a week and. then
the world goes on. Vou do not know the
names of any rich men in Athens or Rome
or Thebes or Babylon. You may know the
name of some orator or sorie scholar who
had wealth, but you do do not know the
name of any man who lnvd nothing but
wealth. There was a man who laid the
foundation of his fortune in the days of
the Stuarts. He was a powder manufacturer.
He drove his coach and four and
lived in a palace. He built silken nests
for his children. He had been an ardent
Royalist, but when the Revolution came,
he said: "There is a tide in the affairs of
men, which, if taken in its flood. leads on
to fortune." And he cut off his powdered
curls and left off his jeweled sword. He
even sang psalms. He turned Puritan. He
turned his back on the catke'hal and went
to worship in a Puritan conventicle. He
had his reward. He got tire contract lor
making pcv.der for Cromwell's army and
became a multi-millionaire. And when the
restoration came he grew again his Van
Dyke bani-d, he again wore his velvet doublet
he ugi.o went to church with prayer
book and crucifix. He even stood by and
applauded when Cromwell's bones were
hung up t-i dry on Tyburn Hill. He quickly
became a cavalier and ire had his reward.
For lo! Charles, made him a Knight
of the Garter and he still fc.ad the contract
for making powder for the Ilnglish Array.
What vka. his name? Yeu do not know.
Xobody knows. You cannot find it written
down in any book. Bat in that same
time there was a poor man who was a
Puritan under the first Stuarts, who was a
Puritan secretary of commonwealth under
Cromwell, and who was a Puritan
blind and poor, an cxiV threatened with
his life under the returned Stuarts. He
had the pen of a ready writer and the Stuarts
offered him gold l.o make the worse
appear the better side He said: "Nay,
nay, I will live in hunger and I will hear
my children cry for bread, but I will not
sell my honor. I cai<? not for parties. I
strive only for the truth of the Kingdom
of God." And everything he ever said iti
prose or in poetry is ./till remembered. His
name was John Milton, and every school
boy knows it by In art. Seek first the
Kingdom of God and fame v.ii! lir.U you
out. Always the pathway to greatness is
along the line oi io/alty to tne Ainguum
of God.
Seek the Kingdoin of God, that is the
great thing. Any a":an who seeks wealth
i >v wealth's sake will always Le poor,
though he be clad in purple. Any man
who seeks first and always the Kingdom
ox God will be rich, whether he live in n
garret or a king's palace. It is the law of
the universe. They who love truth and
serve I'.er. receive a true man's rewaid ?
houses and lands in the ->reser.t time, and
in the time to come, life eternal. Changing
an old poem a little:
Then to side with truth is noble.
Though we share her wrctcaed crust.
For her cause brings fame and profit,
And 'tis prospexous to be just.

A Queer Fowl This.
J A hybrid fowl?tire offspring ot a
! wild English pheasant cock and a gui;
nea hen, recently died at a farm near
Palatine, N. J. A hybrid of this kind,
while not unknown among scientific
men, is quite rare, and very few persons
have ever seen one. The cir;
cumstancs of its birth and life are
! interesting.
i Mr. William Karris, living near jkjij
mer, had a flock of guineas in the
i spring of 1900. These guineas had
: the range cf the farm, on which was
j a fringe of timber. Mr. Harris and
j his raen noticed an English pheasant
; at times in this strip of woods and
on a fev; occasions when the guineas
1 ranged near the woods th'e pheasant
j mingled with them, but never came
i near the house.
{ After tSis flock cf guineas had laid
a number of eggs a neighbor, Jacob
Du Bois, bought of Mr.- Harris a
setting of eggs, which ' were duly
! placed in a nest under a brooding
hen. Now in all well-regulated guij
nea families the period of incubation
is four weeks, but to the astonish!
ment of Mr. Harris, one of the eggs
i hatched in three weeks,
i The little chick was presented to
Mrs. Lizzie Smith. It early exhibited
its wild parentage, and its instinct
taught it self-preservation. When
quite young it showed surprising
alertness. After some of the family
would try to catch it, carefully placing
the hand over it until its back
1 was almost touched; then, quick as a
flash, it was away.
The fowl fed and ranged with the
other farm fowls, and v/hen fully
matured weighed seven pounds. Its
appearance was not unlike a chicken,
except that its legs resembled' those
of' a- turkey. It had remarkable
; Strength, and in a few minutes could
j scratch a hole deep enough to bury
j itself in. It never met a snake withj
out giving and winning battle.
The Greatest Slave Country.
J China is cue great slave country
: of the world. Of a population of
i 400,000,000 there are slaves to the
, number of lu,000,000. Every family
; of means keeps its girl slaves, and a
i man's position is usually gauged by
i the number he keeps. At any age
I from three to fifteen girls are sold,
j seven or eight being the age at
1 which most change hands. The
! girls are purchased to do house'
work, it being cheaper to buy than
1 to hire. Slaves vary in price. Ten
j dollars is about the average, but
much depends on the girl's appearance.

bring $20 or even $40.?Chicago

The Fourth Cavalry Band at Fort

The Journal is reminded of another
man who has been in Uncle Sam's
service far beyond the limit fixed by
law. In 1900 Gov. Stanley and the
party sent to meet the 20 th Kansas
at San Francisco were entertained on
the battleship Iowa one day. The
party were on the top of the turret
with Captain Goodrich when a stcopshouldered,
slouchy-locking man
moved along the deck below, apparently
grumbling at all sailors and marines
who got in his way. Kis coat
sleeves were marked with gold braid
(service stripes) half way to the
shoulder. "Who is that?" asked one
of the party. "Why," said Captain
Goodrich, laughing, "that is the real|
commander of the ship. At any rate,
I believe that he considers me as a
more or less^ superfluous figurehead."
And then the captain explained that
the old fellow was a boatswain, the
highest non-commissioned officer in
the navy. "He is a type cf the eld
