Bi n DETI E’S SERHIOX.;
“Seest thou a man diligent t® bis business?
be sliall stand before kings: be shall not stand
before mean men.” Proverbs xxii: 20.
My hearer.*, if any young man in
this congregation thinketh that by
taking thought and getting up oarly
in the morning and going to bed
with the fowls of the hennery and
working hard all day. he has a dead
sure thing on the presidency, he is
counting without Chicago convention.
The text does not mean that. The
young man, by giving heed unto his
ways and keeping his hands clean,
by always earning his breakfast be
fore he eats it, and wearing old
clothes until he can pay for new ones,
and loving his neighbor as his neigh
bor loves himself, and never running
for a train or jumping for a ferryboat,
may indeed never be president. Bet
ter than that he may never want to
be president. lie may never be
worth a million dollars, but he may
be rich in the measureless wealth of
contentment with a thousand a year.
He may not reach the soaring flight
of the eagle that fans the suu with its
broad and sweeping wing, but he
may keep his ward stirred up to a
state of thrilling activity on the plane
of the tuneful hornet. He may not
go to congress, he may not even at
tain unto the glory of the legislature,
but if he be diligent in his business
he may sometimes sit at the cable
with kings—ay, in the happier mo
ments, with aces.
MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS.
“Diligent in his business!” It is
fhe man who is diligent in his own
business to whotu tltis exalted posi
tion is promised. There are people,
dearly beloved, who are diligent iu
everybody’s else - business, and ha ve
there lore no time to attend to their
own. They do not stand before
kings; they more frequently stand
before the police judge. Their dili
gence is not commendable. A work
man is known by bis chips; so, alas
is the faro banker. Do you be dili
gent in your business and be content
with its rewards. You may not
walk so many miles in six days as
Fitzgerald, hut you can sleep a great
deal more in that time; and if you
do not get so much money for it,
neither do you get so many blisters.
On your little salary at the suspender
counter, you cannot clean up 1300,000
on Wall street this w’eek. But neith
er can you he cleaned out of $4 ">O,OOO
next week. You may not be able to
set the fashions in male attire, bnt
you can fill your soul with nameless
joy and an exaltation of celestial
birth, and climb to the top of high
Olympus and lean back and pile
your feet on the sofa and make your
self easy with the immortal gods, by
paying your landlady every Satur
day, and keeping even with your
tailor. You may never be the Wash
ington correspondent of a society pa
per. but then your hair won’t turn
white in tlie agonized effort to ex
plain what it is about a senator’s wife,
who has red hair, freckles, no upper
teeth, a hair wart on her no3e and a
twang in her shrill voice, that
“makes her so bewitchingly beauti
ful and universally admired.” Just
he diligent in your own businees,
and wait in patience, for the reward
of your diligence. It may be a little
slow in coming. The mills of the
gods grind slowly, so does a hand or
ganon the “Last rose of summer” stop,
but it always gets’there. And don’t
pay more for the reward than the re
ward is worth. A man who lives on
twenty-nine cents a day will be apt
to die wealthy, but he won’t die very
fat.
AND HAVE ONE TO MIND.
Again, my hearers, you will ob
serve that the exaltation is promised
the man w r ho is diligent in “business.”
The man or woman who labors dil
igently for years, until he has the
ability to write forty-four chapters of
Bible on a postal card, does not stand
before kings because that sort of a
thing isn’t business. Tne man who
spends all his life trying to invent a
perpetual motion machine has noth
ing to do with business. The “in
ventor,” so speak, of the Keeley
motor will not stand before kings:
he will not even stand before his own
stockholders, although they have
often tried to get behind him.
The m?u who is diligent in con
structing one hundred and nine sen
tences and three hundred and four
teen words out of “Constantinople,”
will not stand anywhere save at the
head of the spelling class, and even
there he is in danger of denunciation
and overthrow by the “speling re4tn
acociachin.” The man who diligent
ly educates his feet until he can waltz
an hour and seventy-eight minutes
without stopping, does not not stand
before kings, because “as snow in
summer and as rain harvest, .so hon
or is not seemly for a man who wears
his brains in his shoes.
THE SECRET OF SUCCESS.
It seems to me, beloved, that the
success of the diligent people who
stand Before kings of various degrees,
is in a measure due to their successful
diligence, and furthermore, this suc
cessful diligence indicates the exist
ence of certain qualities essential to
success. True, there are captains
who creep in at the cabin windows,
and there are generals unfit to be
sergeants, but these pampered pets of
favoritism do not “stand” before
kings; they bow and crouch before
them. But when one is successful in
spite of adverse criticism and sharp
competition, I am inclined to think
there must be some reason for his
success. You ask me, for instance,
what is the secret of Mrs. Langtry’s
success. Well, I think it is her suc
cess. But you say: “There are twen
ty girls in Brooklyn more beautiful
than she.” I don’t doubt it, 1 think
i there are twenty-one. And “they
are more gifted and blessed with bet.
ter education?” Yes I know that.
“And their social position is higher.”
I should say so, my brother. “And
they have greater histrionic talent?”
ludeed they have; I agree with you.
“They can act all around her.” Of
course they can. “And they ought
to have their place on the American
stage?” Well, then, why don’t they
have it?
I have been introduced in nearly
every state in the union, and usu
ally, too, iu the smaller towns, some
distance from any railroad, to minis
ters of the gospel who could preach
the boots off Mr. Beecher, who weie
more original, more eloquent, posses
sing a keene*' faculty of observation
aud a happier vein of humor and
more fertile and felicitous in illustra
tion. And they resembled Mr.
Beecher, too, their friends told me.
And so they did. I could see that
for myself. They wore soft felt hats
and long hair. And in some in
stances I learned that Mr. Beecher
resembled and copied the village pas
tor. I have met many, very many
eloquent lecturers, without audien
ces, who could teach ,John B. Gough
the elements of temperance lecturing,
and there they were, pegging away
at everybody’s shoes, or selling dry
good?, groceries and hardware in a
country store, while Gough, the
shallow 7 pretender, usurped their
rightful places on the rostrum. Peo
ple have shown me women who
could sing more divinely than Patti,
and I know plenty of men who can
walk right away from Fitzgerald.
ABUNDANT, HUT HARD TO FIND.
Now, I believe in hidden pearls.
I have no doubt the deep uufathom
ed ca\ 7 es of the ocean are so full of
them that their feet stick out of the
dormer windows. I think some of
them are rarer, and liner, aud purer
than any that have graced the dia
dem of an empress up to the date of
this writing. Down in the gloomy
caverns of the earth, there are dia
monds, 1 firmly believe, that w’ould
make the Kohinoor hide its dimin
ished head and sell itself for a peb
ble.
Why do not these blushing dowers
cease to waste their sweetness on the
desert and bring their wares to a
buoyant marker? Is it not because
they lack the “diligence” which en
ableth men to stand before kings, and
is not the diligence just as essential
as the talent?
THE BURIED TAT.ENT.
“Oh, dearly, beloved, the talent
that is hid iu a napkin, buried in tlie
earth, is ever a curse to the man to
whose stewardship it has been com
mitted. If you have nothing, noth
ing will be expected of you; but if
you dig in the ground and bury the
talent that is given you, that you
may not be bothered with the care of
it, unprofitable and lazy servant that
you are, you shall be cast upon the
curbstone where there is weeping and
wailing.
The collection this morning will be
devoted to the servants with the ten
and five talents. They have all they
want, but the trustees and deacons
have decided that they ought to have
more. If the unprofitable servant
doesn’t put anything in the hat, take
his watch. —Brooklyn Eagle.
Something About the Cultivation of Figs in
Northern Latitudes.
Everybody who has a house can
have his “own vine and fig tree.”
Nothing grows more readily than the
grape vine and fig tree in this lati
tude. It is strange that there are so
few fig trees in the middle and north
ern states. In Norfolk, Va., fig tree*
are planted in the yards in front of
the houses, and (he fruit can often be
pulled by those who pass along on
the sidewalks. The farther south we
go the more fig trees we see. They
are almost too tender for the north
ern climate, but with a little care
they can easily be'raised. Probably
it would be best to call them “bush
es,” for in the north they must be
kept down to hushes.
Iho fig tree grows from a cutting.
All I hat is necessary is to clip a
young shoot about a foot long irom
the parent tree and stick it into the
ground. It should be pushed dow T n
until the top is even with itie surface.
No part of any cutting, whether fig
or grape or willow, should be allow
ed to remain above the ground. Be
fore the itard frosts come the twig
must be bent down to the ground and
fastened to a peg with a string and
covered over with leaves or loose
dirt. In the spring they must be un
covered and pushed into place. This
bending don’t hurt in the least, even
if the stalK cracks and splits it will re
cover from the wound. This hard
usage prevents it from growing into
a tree, and that is what is desired. It
would be impossible to protect a
large tree from the winter freezing.
Care must be taken to uncover the
bushes iu the spring before they be
gin to sprout. It is better to turn
them out too soon than too late.
They will stand a little frost. In the
south the figs ripen in June. Even
in the north two crops can he grown,
but there is not time for the second
crop to ripen. The first grows on the
stem that has been bent down and
covered, from buds that were formed
during the previous autumn. The
second crop grows from the new
shoots that come out in the spring.
In Florida, where tlie season is long
enough for the figs that glow on the
spring shoots to ripen, the hushes
should be cut off close to the ground
every autumn.
The bushes do best on gravelly,
well drained soil that is rather poor.
In rich ground the growth is too rap
id, and the fruit is not so good. An
excellent plan is to plant the tree iu
poor ground, and when the fruit is
coming forward treat the roofs to a
bucket of liquid manure. Although
the fig crop adds nothing to the
wealth of the country, and it is not
likely ever to become of great com
mercial value, yet it is a delicious
fruit, and in the south particularly it
helps to lengthen out the list of do
mestic luxuries. Cuttings must be
applied for at the agricultural depart
ment during the winter months.
