McCiec Waters, pnstor of the Tompkins Avenue ('onereg:itio:ml Chufcli, took as his subject Sunday morning, "Rewards of Righteousness." His text Was from Matthew vi: S3: "Seek ye lirst the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these th'ngs shall be added unto you." l)r. Waters said in the course of his excellent sermon: From the beginning until now man's search has been for the golden age. Sometimes he named it the Golden Fleece: sometimes Ifoiv Grail. Plato urnnliooinrl it in a'republic yet to/be. Hunyan. after 11 weary?pilgrimage, found it beyond the J)electat>Ie Mountains. Hacon saw it in Atlantis, rising out of the midst of nn unbailed sea. It .3 always afar oil and in the future. Like the pot of gold at the foot of the rainbow, it is always over the next hill. Jesus also prophesied a golden age? called it "the Kingdom of (lod," and found it in the present time. For a long time men went hu. gry. and lo! there was always plenty in the ground?when they "scratched ttie earth vitli a hoe it lui'ghrd with a har\est." They prized diamonds, and lo! they were always in the river oeds fsr L.ie finding. They shivered for warmth, and lo! coal was stored under the hills. They 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 ot God is vithin you." Men arc always expecting the Kingdom of (Joel to come through some device of their mn^incr Tlifv "I - better government and a better wage, and we will have >'..?? Kingdom of (Jod; let us toil and hoard a mountain of gold, and when our barns arc lillcd \vc will have the Kingdom of uod. Let us search after knowledge, . nd when we are wise we will have the Kingdom of God. L.-t ?:s trade our strength for popularity and reputation, when with the laurel we have bound our brow we shall be blessed." Jesus says iust the opposite: "Seek the Kingdom of God and you will have no labor problem, for you will have : n increased wage; ceek the Kingdom of God, and you will find wealth; feck the Kingdom of God. and you will l>e enrolled among the children of immortality." Men say, "Let us get rich and we will lie contei.t." .Testis says. "He content, and you will be rich." Mi., say, "Let us get wisdom, and we will be happy." Jesus says, ' Be happy and you will be wise. Men sav. "If we can gain all these things, like houses niid 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? lie was ahead of J \s time. We are growing up to llim, to understand Him better than early generations. Kvei saying 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. I5ut time, the great tester, pronounces it pure gold. The wise man everywhere sees the exceeding reward of meek I ncss. They pet who forget. Tesus Haiti to 1 iis disciples: "It is expedient for you that 1 go away." They could not believe that then. Hut when a long time hath passed we know that really death is a benefit, and that great men are never so valuable to their disciples as after they have gone away from the earth. The text, "Seek first the Kingdom of C?od," j etc., is one of those sayings that we have i to grow up to. Generally men have read \ '* x it in P()o.\a mystical way. They have re,V *"KAV<l/ed it as true only in some peculiar religious sense. Hut it is a literal fact: it. is truth; it is law of the universe. Virtue in the road to fame. Godliness is profitable in this world. "And all these things shall be added." ^ What things? Christ has just named them?food and clothes and the material prizes for which men tftrive. Men are sw/ived l>v motives as frees are by the winds. Tell me what yon most love and I will' tell you what you will be. You love knowledge with a passion?the Greek did 1 I.- v. i.mi ne ricivune ft seiiotnr; you love power?tho Roman <lii! and Home is yet Ihw giver for the nations; you io*e beauty? .!ohn Keats did and he became a poet. Among the motives that sway men's daily lives, we may put first these three?tinpursuit of " oa'ith. tlie gaining of knowledge and the winning of fame. How tan these things best be won? According to Jesus, by a deep hearted search after the Kingdom of God. Wealth.?tlie laws of wealth arc the laws of righteousness. Knowledge?the kingdom of knowledge is the Kingdom of God. Fame?"the Lord knov.eth the way of the righteous, but the ways of the wicked shall rot." Let us look -it the world of wealth. The savage lias no prosperity; it is only the civilized man who grows rich. Wlmt is wealth? Kmerson tells ?:s it bc^hia "with n tight roof that keeps out the rain and a good pump that yields sweet waters, and horses, or a locomotive to cross the land, and a boat to cross the sea." But whence :omc the roof and the pump and the shin and the locomotive? Man did not invent ;hem; he onlv discovered tliem. They are the laws of God drc?:sed up in clothes of wood and steel and stone. The Jaws of wealth nr.- the laws of righteousness. Men ?*o town.id prosperity as they tir.d the laws if God. I i ' - - mow 10 we pet, wealth? Tlicib re three possible ways. A man may hoc ho inny a tea I it.' or a .ran may earn iii. ' .it, neither pauper uor befcirar iuero:i>et le wealth of tlie community.

' Contrariwise, then, civilization, )i all its hou.vs and lands and stocks 1 bonds, is society with the commandits. Violation of tin; laws of find in rv age menus bankruptcy. Obedient c he laws of God in every apre makes lot peiity. History writes down tiic tu!c mpires. When she writes down ''l\vUls" and "Parthenon" and "Ilanging lens," she expresses tlieir desolation aying over their ruins. "These people >t (lod, ai d hei'"c their waste place-;." writes down "T.ond.m," "Chnmher of noree," "Shipyard.'." "Temple," "Li." and expresses their glory by sayThese hnvo remembered Ciod?heme prosperity." Hiblo pronounces "Anathema" those who "make haste to net that is tliev ?-li? ? ,u- ' , .

(a pf ?ca!c??one ealc. with a large |>un, >n which hi buy J the grape* lioni the hijsbandmnn, and another, with a *'ua I pan, in which he sells t!te grapes to the housewife. And the King begins t<> pay his men in debased coin, and honesty and ntegrity and justice are being cxtermin ited, and there is growing up a people with lying Kins: and lying merchants and false words. The old prophet rises in hi* an| eland says: "A false measure i* an a bain* illation unto the Lord." Any falsehood in commerce at last poisons tiie very foundation of civilization. The ejtv and the nation and the individual man who have luijjuncu won aim ins inws u?> not bihihi for a long time in the world of conimcrcc. The laws of wealth are the laws of righteousness. If you would become rich, if von would attain prosperity, if you would multiply homes ati;1 lands and banks, if you would m.ike a desert place bloom as the rose,' let Christ be your teacher. ".Seek first the kingdom of Mis righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you." What is knowledge? J low do we gain knowledge? There s;ts Thomas Crri.vle, the lonesomest man ::i England. and <me of the poorest, feeding his shaggy intellect 011 French revolution, storm of modern ages. When he speaks we ca!'- him our greatest prophet and scholar. And his message is: "I have found God reigning among 'ill peoples." lie writes down for us the laws of divin? retribution which run through the nation. Like the old Seandnnavinn Titan that he is, he drinks the liquid (ire of divine wrath out of the skull of ncrished empire. And he smnckcd Iur Puritan lips as though it was savory wine. Knowledge is thulir.it out rl-vine laws. There is Charles Dickens. lie is not satisfied to meet people on the street as we do and shake hand.* with them and learn their nanus. Hut. looking into their hearts and homes and haunts and sins with sympathy, with patios and with *orest humor, he writes hi* hooks. These hooks become a sort of Jlible of the subI merged tenth of society, and in them we find written down the great divine laws whieh govern nation and conduct and charac.ter He is the poor man's prophet, because lie found on the heart of the poor man the handwriting of God. All knowledge is revelation. Seeking the way Cod :r..('c the ftars go. Kepler became an astronomer. Seeking the way the world was matle, Wallace became a scientist. fecciung tne mysteries ana secrets of the human soul and Cod's doing therein. Kant became a philosopher. Seeking to find out how'God wrought upon human nature. Shakespeare penetrated into tho soul depths of lago, Hamlet, Desdcmona. Richard. Henry aid Lear, and transcribing into words what ho found written there, he has given us hi? great dramas. Lo! the dramas of Shakespeare are almost another hook of God in which we lind written the divine law of rei libation find forgiveness and sacrifice and redemption. Augustine comes and his one word is law. but it is the law of God. Drowning co:ne>- and his one word is inspiration. but it i? the inspiration of God. And Rcccher and Phillips Brooks come and their one word is love, but it is the love of God. Save he brim* us a word of God, the wisdom of the scholav i- foolishness. Have you ever seen the shimmering ot a lake when the sun was playing in its surface? Have you seen the gleams of sunlight dancing like angels on the water? Von know the priory was in the sun, not in the water. The sun was tlic source: tlie waters were clothed in a borrowed jilorv. If you have ever sto.nl in a irreat valley surrounded by mountains. cud h'jard the echoes repeated front mount to mount, some loud, some soft, so:ne distant, some near at hand, you know the voice was not in tli" mountains. The *nou>ttai.is only carried the voice. St> great s/ho'.nrs are only waters and mountain peak . It is Ciod Almighty who speaks, 't is his jr'.ory that shines. There is a difference in men.

A hybrid fowl?the offspring of a j wild English pheasant cock and a gni- | nea hen, recently died at a farm near j Ralatine, N. J. A hybrid of this kind, while not unknown amcng scio:itific i men, is quite rare, and very few p?r- \ sons have ever st?en one. The circumstance of its birth anil lifo aro interesting. Mr. William Harris, living near IS1mer, had a flock of guineas in the spring of 1000. Those guineas had the range of tho farm, on which was | | a fringe of timber. Mr. Harris and I his men noticed an English .pheasant ; at times in this strip of woods and j i 0:1 a few occasions when tho guineas j ranged near the woods th'3 pheasant | mingled with them, but never came I near the house. After this llcck cf guineas had laid ?. uuutucr ui it uui, ,ian)U Du Bols, bought of Mr. Harris a setting of vggs, which were duly j placed In a nest under a brooding 1 hen. Now In all well-regulated guinea families the period of incubation Is four wce-ks, but to the astonishment of Mr. Harris, one of the egg's hatched In three weeks. The little chick was presented to j Mrs. Lizzie Smith. It early exhibited Its wild parentage, and Its instinct 1 taught It self-preservation. When quit"? young it showed surprising alertness. After some of the family nuuiu 11 j iu u.uuii 11, t;uru^uiiy placing tho hand over It. until Its back was almost touched; then, quick as a flash. It was away. The fmvl fed and ranged with th<3 oth*r farm fmvls, and when fully matured we'ghed seven pounds. Its appearance k?6 not unlike a chicken, except that lis lens resembled these of a turkey. It had remarkable strength, and In a few minutes could scratch a hole deep enough to bury Itself In. It never met a snake without giving and winning battle. The Greatest Slave Country.
