Chicago, June 7.—In this sermon tin preacher sets forth with enthusiasm j the delights of the Christian ministry | and the opportunities it offers to the graduates of our learned institutions as the ideal life of consecrated useful ness. The text is Psahns xvi, G, “The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places.” Different occupations often imply dif ferent enjoyments. All varieties of flowers do not thrive equally well un der the same colored glasses. The amusements which would be exhilara tion and restful relaxation for the phy sician may be drudgery and irritation for the merchant. The owls and the bats turn their days into nights and their nights into days. The eagles and the hawks do not circle about in the heavens unless they can heat their feathers by the flaming fires of the sun. The inhabitant of one home may be deaf and blind to the pleasures sur rounding another fireside. In the backwoods I best learned this interesting lesson. With my family, I was spending a summer vacation in the country. In a rowboat, far from a railroad station. I was tracing the bendings and windings of a little river. Suddenly, at a turn of the stream, we came to a small house nestling under the protecting branches of the tall trees. I found there a woman living practically alone. She had no children. All day long her husband was off to work. I said to her: “This is an awful place to live! You must he lonely and heartsick with no companionship.’’ “Oh. no.” she answered. “I am never alone. I have hundreds of friends who call and talk to me every day. Do you see that little nest just at the end of my porch? Well, last spring the mother bird came here as a bride and asked me if she could build her home there, and I said ‘Yes.’ Then she talked and chattered on all the time she was building it. She brought me her hus band and introduced me to him. She told me when the eggs were laid and when the eggs were hatched. She is one of my friends. Then just over there under that bank a muskrat has his home and is raising ids family. He comes out every little while and blinks at me and talks in the sign lan guage. Then there are my friends the wild flowers and my friends the chick ens and my friends the fish, which I feed at the dock. Then the river it self is a friend of mine. It has a lan guage of murmurs and gurgles to which 1 listen, and when I get tired and weary I am soothed by its sym pathy. Oli, no; do not pity me for be ing alone. My enjoyments are per haps not your enjoyments, hut they are many, very many. I would not exchange my life for that of any one I know.” Happy woman that. Happy because she was in the place where she could use the qualities with which God had endowed her. Happy because, like a bee, she was able to find every flower tilled with nectar for her lips. Happy because every tree branch was to her a choir loft in which a master soloist was singing the sweetest song in all his repertoire. The IlappieMt Life. Well, my friends, as I needlessly pitied that poor woman living in the backwoods there are hundreds and thousands of people commiserating the supposed unhappy lot of a gospel min ister. These sympathetic commisera tions have become widespread. There are hundreds—aye, thousands—of young nii'n who might otherwise have volun teered for service in the Christian pul pits. have been deterred on account of them, from consecrating themselves to the gospel ministry. Now I want to speak specially this morning to the young men who are graduating from our colleges and schools, and if they have adopted tins view of the Chris tian ministry being a joyless, gloomy life I want to set them right. I make a direct appeal to the young men to enter the gospel pulpit, because it of fers the happiest, the most blessed and the most exhilarating life on earth. I am going to make this plea with au tobiographical authority by showing the kindnesses and the sympathies which have surrounded me from the day of my ordination down to the pres ent time. The first objection generally made to the occupation of a minister is that it is not a money making profession. That is true, hut it does offer some thing far better in the joy of noble con secration. We have all at some time proved the truth of Christ’s words, that it is better to give than to re ceive. When the bower bird of love builded her home for the first time in our hearts we Immediately tried to man ifest that love in many different ways. We laid at the feet of our ladylove our gifts, as the wise men from the east came to the manger with their presents of gold and frankincense and myrrh. We manifested our love in the littie at tentions we daily bestowed and in the letters we would write. As time passed on we again manifested that love in the engagement ring which we trem blingly placed upon the finger of our future bride. Has any money we have since earned ever given us such joy as that which came in the happiness of her smile, in the welcome of her voice and in the knowledge that we were winning her affections In return for onr affections? My young friend, did you ever stop to consider that the Christian minister has such joys as 1 these, which make the acquisition of a fortune appear in comparison low and sordid? Apart from the rewards that God gives to the faithful miuistcr, there is a joy in the self surrender, in the consecration of our whole lives to Christ, who laid down Ins life for us. Not MetiHtiretl by Money. The true artist has a deep sense of the Inspiring exhilaration when he surren ders his life to his art. Only the other day a young man left my Chicago church to go to Europe and study in the foreign art schools. I said to him: “Why do you follow this profession? In all probability you will only eke out of it h hare living. You will have years and vears of financial struggle ahead.” “I know it.” he answered, with a smiling face, “hut though I may not make much money I shall have a higher re ward than money. I would be willing to live all my life in poverty if I only could continue to know the joy of trying to interpret the higher message of the soul in the language of colors.” The true soldier does not think of money, the mere question of money, when he surrenders his life to the serv ice of his country. In all probability he will never have anything to live on but a mere pittance of a salary. Yet he willingly dons the soldier’s uniform, lie willingly promises to suffer and starve and. if need he, to die for his country’s good. While promising to make this sacrifice he feels happy in the resolve. Cannot the minister in the same way feel the exhilaration of a noble consecration? I know that the •compensations of the gospel minister cannot he estimated by the standard of mere money. I know there are many men preaching week by week in the pulpit who if they had entered the law nr a mercantile life would have an an nual income of five, ten times the in come that they receive as ministers. Rut does not the joy of giving your whole life to the service of Jesus Christ bring some rewards higher than mon ey? Does not the thought that you are trying to save men and comfort men and bring them to the Saviour whether you are standing by the opened casket or by the sick bed or on the street or in the pulpit give you transcendent and at times almost overwhelming Joys? That these spiritual rewards are real and satisfying is demonstrated by the fact that the ministers are the only class of men who, as a rule, want their sons to follow in their own footsteps ami their daughters to marry men of tlioir own profession. If you go to an average lawyer and ask him what he would like ids sons to be lie answers, “Almost anything rather than a law yer;” to a physician, anything but a doctor; to a newspaper man, anything but an editor; to a merchant, and you will often find him struggling and sav ing so that he can give his hoys a col lege education for entrance into some professional career. But a consecrated minister invariably wants his sons to enter the gospel ministry. If you ask your pastor this question, “What would you like your son to be?” he will in all probability answer: “Well, I would not like to persuade my hoy to he a min ister. If lie becomes a minister I do not want him to “he a man made, hut a God made, minister. But if the Holy Spirit should ever work upon ids heart I think the happiest day of my life would be when I could hear him preach iu a Christian pulpit. May God give me this joy.” When some one asked Henry Ward Beecher why lie entered the gospel ministry he an swered: "I could not help it. Who ever heard of Lyman Beecher’s son doing anything else but preach?” The reason all those hoys became preachers was because Lyman Beecher instilled into their hearts what the joys of the Chris tian ministry might be. Over half of my seminary classmates were the sons of ministers. The happiest day in my father's life, I believe, was the day he preached my ordination sermon and finished it in a voice trembling with emotion and with eyes moist with tears of rapturous joy. Oh, young men who feel today the yearnings for the gospel ministry, I know tlixt, if conse crated, you will have the happiest, most joyful and the uoblest profession al life that is now open to any Chris tian man. The Joy of Self Surrender. But the joy of seif surrender is not the only reward. The gospel ministry affords more hpportunities for useful ness tlian t / other profession. Every true mau T /nts to make the most of his earthly life. If he has ten talents he wants to use them where they will be most effective; if lie has only one talent he wants to make that one tal ent useful. Like *. Capitalist, he wants to invest his mental and spiritual tal ents where the investment is sure and where he can get the most returns for the principal invested. Where can a consecrated, educated youug man have more influence for good than in the Christian ministry? When the young man graduates from the theological seminary he immedi ately takes his place at Dv-'licad of a country or city churo v What does that mean? Simply The youpg man Immediately becomes the leader of a consecrated band of Christian workers, who are ready to work for Christ in any way the young pastor directs. It means that his individual personal Influence is doubled, trebled, quadrupled—aye, a hundredfold in creased—by the consecrated band of workers who welcome him into his new charge. It means that by the power of his Christian eolaborers working with him and for him he can In time absolutely dominate a whole region for good. Study the history of Jonathan Edwards in Northampton, Mass. Study Lyman Beecher’s min ister! il career in Litchfield, Conn. Aft er he had been for a short time in his new parsonage a mighty revival swept over that town. When some one con gratulated him on the results of his new pastorate this trumpet throated mess'-nger of God answered: “Do not congratulate m«. It la not my walk, hut that of the 250 consecrated praying men and women who are working by my side.” Study the life of Moses Huge of Richmond and of the late Dr. Da liner of New Orleans. “But,” says some young man, “why do you cite the careers of great mon? I am not a great man and never will be.” The same gospel success which came to these consecrated men upon a large scale can come to you, a consecrated young minister, upon a smaller scale. Young man, I tell you that It is impos sible for any consecrated minister, ei ther in the country or the city, to be surrounded by a praying, working band of faithful followers and not have his life tell mightily for good in the region in which he lives. Ought not such an influence for good bring a joy, a rap turous joy, in the heart of Christ's preachers? Cannot all truly consecrat ed gospel ministers on account of the infinite opportunities of usefulness which have been opened to them joy fully chorus the glad paean which was once sung by the sainted Horatius Bo- nar: I thank th&e, Lord, for using me For thee to work and speak; However trembling is the hand, The voice however weak. For those to whom, through me, thou has: Some heavenly guidance given; For some it may be saved from death And some brought nearer heaven. A Happy Fellowship. The gospel ministry is a profc !<> whose members are treated with p spect and universal kind’ . IL v with respect? The very V •“ :• ’ most depraved are genera Ip sil'Mie v st their approach. When the minis'.i cornea around the blasphemer's lips up closed, the low'd story is untold, the evil thought is unexpressed. When the Catholic priest on an errand of mercy enters the lowest dive every head un covers and every cursing tongue is stilled. How r w'itli kindness? Because from the very moment you step into it there are scores and hundreds of people who will do everything in their pow r er to make your life happy. When installed in a charge the church reception will show' yon how many friends you have and how welcome you are. When your baby Is sick there are always many sympathizers to come around and bring the flowers and, if necessary, help in nursing. When the autumnal fruits ar rive there are the tokens of love in gifts of jellies and apples. There an* the Christmas presents of chairs and other kniekknacks. These gifts may not have much money value, but they show the true heatings of the hearts of a loving and sympathetic people. An aged reformer of England when dying was asked what was the greatest want of this world. He answered, “Sympa thy.” The true gospel minister rarely feels the need of this gift. lie has the sympathy of his people in his church work, lie finds sympathy, heartfelt sympathy, wherever he goes. I know’ that there are certain churches which were started in fiendish row’s and are now r contemptible churches and have ill treated their ministers for genera tions. But these mean churches are the exceptions—the rare exceptions. The vast majority are hik'd with good men and women who are doing all they can for their ministers. At great personal sacrifice they are denying themselves in many ways to show their pastors love and kindness. It is into such a happy fellowship of pulpit au: 1 pew that I welcome Hie consecrated young men of this day by welcoming you into the gospel ministry. FitliftinK AftMociatlona. The Christian ministry is a profes sion in which the members are shield ed from many of the temptations that confront men in other walks of life. Richard Baxter once declared that the minister had to face the greatest of all daily temptations. He lived In an ex ceptional period, and I do not believe he w’ould have said so had he been liv ing in this day. Temptations come to the pulpit, but not with the same viru lence and bitterness as they assail the pew. Tin' gospel minister by his ofli- eial position is under the influence of good associates. He has surrounding him some of the best men and women who are inhabitants of the community in which he lives. These Christians are not only praying for his work, but also for him. We all believe in the power of prayer. Is there to be no di rect result upon the minister’s life on account of this spiritual association? When I entered college two or three different secret societies wanted me to join their organizations. One was com posed of men notorious for their dissi pations. They were drinkers, card play ers, earousers. Another was a poorer society financially, but was composed for the most part of noble Christian boys. I said to myself: “I cannot afford to place myself in a position where I may be surrounded by rneu who drink and gamble. I will join the society which is poorer financially, but whose spiritual members will lift me up In stead of dragging me down.” The con secrated gospel preacher in the same ■way is always surrounded by good men and women and not by had. He can not if he would associate with evil companions or go to questionable amusements or desecrate the Sabbath. If he did he would be Immediately de barred from his pulpit ministrations. Therefore, my young friend, you should desire to enter the gospel minis try for these purifying and holy asso ciations that will lift you up instead of dragging you down. Hemmed With Noble Influence*. The gospel minister has the same temptations as other men. Why, that Is absurd. I do not believe I am what I am because I am stronger than other men. I believe I am what I am because God has surrounded me by praying men and women and hemmed me in with noble Influences and bound me hand and foot with the golden mana cles of their petitions. If these holy as sociates should be taken away from my life I would tremble for wbat tbs results might be. Suppose I were a poor farmer elected to the state legis lature. Suppose the lobbyists wanted to purchase the right of way for a rail road franchise and offered me a $5,000 bribe. Would 1 take* it? I do not say 1 would, hut 1 thank God Satan has nev er been able to tempt me with the chance. Suppose 1 were a Chicago po lice captain on a small salary, living every day in fear that my olliciul head would be decapitated. Suppose that by shutting my eyes upon a few houses of evil resort I could have an income of $10,000 a year. Would I take it? I do not say that I would, hut I thank God I have never bean placed in such a po sition of temptation where I had the chance. Supi>osp I wanted to become a Pb ysieiaif Suppose I had to enter one of our modern medical schools in which are crowded among many students the Infidel, the blasphemous and the lewd. If I should take such a medical course would I come out assure morally as I did after I had livet*or three years in a Christian seminary? My young friend, if God calls you to he a lawyer or doctor or legislator or police captain or merchant go ahead and be what he Intends you to be. He will give you strength to resist any temptations that may come in your way if you will only ask him. But if he calls you to be a Christian minister and you deliberately turn a deaf ear to that call I tremble in reference to your future. I tremble for your spiritual life when you have to face the temptations that beset the av erage man in the outside world. I tremble when you shall not have the guarding, guiding, protecting influence of praying men about you. such as sur rounds the average life of the Christian minister. An Appeal to YnnnK Men. I have preached this sermon, show ing the joys, the spiritual safeguards and the infinite usefulness of the gos pel ministry, for two distinct reasons: The first, there never was a greater need than at the present time for young men to enter the gospel pulpit. A fexv years ago the capitalist, the statesman, the merchant prince and leading lawyers considered it an honor to sit in the aldermanic chairs of our great cities. Now, for the most part, those positions are despised by the in tellectual and financial leaders and arc filled with professional politicians and men who are weaklings and often dis honest. Once there was a time when the greatest honor that could come to a family was the honor of a son dedi cating his life to the gospel ministry. Now the current of popular opinion is running counter to this line of noble service. Our strong young men, in stead of entering the pulpit, are giving their lives to law, to merchandise, to railroads, to electrical sciences. Who are to till the future pulpits of Amer ica? “Give us men!” cry our theolog ical professors. Their classes are grow ing smaller year by year. “Give us men!” cry the churches. “We cannot get the right kind of men for our pul pits.” “Give us men!” cry the synodical missionaries. “The harvest is ripe, but the laborers are too few.” It Is all nonsense for some of our religious writers to declare that the reason our theological students are becoming less and less in number year by year is be cause we an* now getting quality in stead of quantity. The reason our seminaries an* becoming depleted is because the young men who ought to enter the ministry refuse to come. Men! Men! We want men! We need men for the gospel pulpits, to save the sinful world. • The second reason for preaching this sermon is that I would appeal to those* young men to enter the gospel ministry who many yours ago heard the call and who have stifled itt»y an indiffer ent, wayward life. When my uncle, the devoted missionary, Rev. John Tal- mage of Amoy, China, was a boy of twelve he read the life of David Brain- erd. After closing the book he went to my grandmother and said, “Mother, I am going to be a missionary.” Time passed on, and he entered college. He lost his high ideal and led an indiffer ent life. He never mentioned the word minister from that day until toward the end of his college career. Then the old pledge came back. Then and there on the night before his graduation from Rutger's college, he gave himself up anew to his glorious life promise. Youug men, you who have heard this call to the Christian ministry years ago, will you not hear the call now? Will you not be brave enough, noble enough. Christian enough, to do what Christ bids you do? The church needs you. Christ (•alls you. Come, offer your life and consecrate it at the altar of Christian ministry. [Copyright, 1903, hy Louis Klopsch.] Ills Last Hope KenllzeU. [From the Sentinel, Uebo. Mont.) In the first opening of Oklahoma to settlers id 1889, the editor of this paper was among the many seekers after fortune who made the big race one fine day in April. During his traveling about and afterwards his camping upon his claim, he en countered much bad water, which, together with the severe heat, gave him a very severe diarrhoea which it seemed almost impossible to check, and along in June the case became so bad he expected to die. One day one of his neighbors brought him one small bottle of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera ami Diarrhoea Remedy as a ast hope. A big dose was given him while he was rolling about on the ground in great agony, and in a few minutes the dose was repeated. The good effect of the medicine was soon noticed and within an hour the pa tient was taking his first sound sleep for a fortnight. That one little bottle worked a complete cure, and he can not help but feel grateful. The season for bowel disorders being at hand sug gests this item.

It isn’t the unkempt little arabs who play in street gutters that are mis chievously mean and brutal. On Cen tral park west, outside a palatial apart ment house, a group of beautifully j dressed children were playing. A pret ty fourteen-year-old girl passed, her long hair floating over her shoulders. She was neatly garbed, but the apparel of tbe rich children made her look shabby, and she was weighted down with a big package. Suddenly a boy darted away from tbe group and gave a violent tug to her hair, which pulled her head back ward at a most painful angle. She did not glance around, but walked quietly on. An Indignant woman raced after her and said: “Child, why didn’t you give that young brute a good slap?” A pair of lovely blue eyes were turn ed on the speaker and quivering lips steadied sufficiently to enable her to say with quaint dignity, “I’d like to, but it would be lowering myself to his level.” And as she went on tbe Isugbter of the boy and his companions followed her. *-N«w York Frees.
