P — o) THE OMAHA DAILY BEL: : MONDAY, MARCH 4 1892, ————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— REWARD OF STEADY LABOR Buocess is Bound to Oome If One is Only Persistent and Earnest. PARABLE OF THE HIDDEN TREASURE of tho ¥ That K of the Particular Sign ifis Practieal Application Man Who Plowed ¥ its Last night at Immanuel Baptist church Rev. Frank W. Foster preached the first of A sories of business sormons, drawing prac- tical business lessons from the parables of Christ. His subject was “The Hidden Treasure; or, Business Sagacity.” Rev. Mr. Foster took for his text Matit ew xiif, 44: “The kingdom of heaven is like unto treas- ure hid in a field, the which when a man hath found he hideth, and for joy thercof he gooth and selleth all that he huth and buyoth that field.” During his discourse the preacher said: “Christ had great quickness and soundness of judgment. His sagacity in the choice of illustrations which would command the at- tention of his hearers and carry them with him to the conclusion of his discourses. is ad- mitted by all. He had closely studied the business havits of his times, and from the practices of men in the marts of trade he found illustrations for tho greater doctrines of his teachings. “In tho story which gives us our text, we aro shown an industrious man contentedly laboring for his master, but he is atteutive and thoughtful, as well as industrious. Plowing along, by mere chance he came upou a groat treasure, and ho is naturally greatly surprised, but he does not lose his head. He might huve filled his pockets, or the lunch bag he probably had with him, and gone on with his work, and gone back thers from time to time and replenished his store. But he shiowed his wisdom and thoughttulness in doing what we all would recognizo, after 1t was done, as the wisest thing that he could do. *'He keops his secrat. In this we witness his wisdom, for there are eaterprises which will not to to allow others to know about we will be sure to fail. He had a good thing and no doubt he felt many times tempted to reveal his secret, but his ouly surety was in being close-mouthed. He began_ to turn every possession into money; he had found a first class chance to inv all his hard earned savings .of many voars and he did not hesitate to pert with every- thing that ho might got the money to pur- chaso tnat field. Peoplo talked about 1t; no doubt they thought ho was mad and that he had vecome a fool. # Some Practical Business Lessons. *“Pnis man found his good fortune by at- tending to his business, by sticking to tho work for which he was trained and fitted. There is not the slightest encouragement in this story for men to engage in games of chance, nor invest in lotterics. This indus- trious man found wealth in doing what he could do well. +Many of the failures in business are due to attempts to do some business for which ono is not fitted, and many other failures aro the rosult of gawbling and ventures in chance schemes. Most successful men find their success in attending strictly to their business and in legitimate profit. There is unthought-of success for many business men if they wonld only dovoto tho same at- tention to the business they are engaged in that they do to looking about coutinually for some soft snap in sowe other line of busi- ness. ‘Many & man goes through life with his yes shut. He would plough up & whole bank of gold and never notice it. 1t is astonish- ing how littlo we see after we have come to be20 years old. Most intelligent children see three to ten times as much as their parents. 1f you would como to success and wood fortune_you must go about with your eyes open. The man in this parable valued his opportunity. He was willing to sacrifice for the treasure. Staying qualities and ap- preciation of opportunitics, and williugness to sacrifice for the future are essential ele- ments _in noarly overy succossful business man’s life. Still Greater Lesson, “Men, with ull their sagacity, want the troasures of the earth, becauso of tho advan- tages, because of the happiness they hopo to command by their possession. Fow are the men who liv to get gold for the mero miserly delight of secing 1t glitter in the canale hight of their den. They want gold for what it will purchase, or for what thoy suvposed it will purchuse, of the happiness of this world. “This parable 1s intended to teach us, in the most. positive terms, that thore is a treasure, & jov, A happiness that men may come upon, that will bo worth more than ail the possessious thoy may have before finding this' treasure. Job swid, m the way back nges of tho huwan family, concorning the wreatest creasure ‘It cannot be gotien for Kold, neither shall silver be weiched tor the prico of it, the wold and crystal cannot equal it, and the exchange of it shall not be for pure gold; no mention shall bo made of coral or of peiwls, for the price of 1t is above rubjes.’ den may sneer and laugh, and say that every man bas his price at which he can be bought; but I tell you this is not so. There aro thoso who have been tempted by untold wealtb, and have spurned the offe® of gold aud said: “Thy money perish with thee.” ““Cno treasures of tho kingdom of heaven are hidden treasures. Tho world does not see them, and therefore oftentimes the world does not believe in them, But we see them, and we posseas them, and they 'are the chief joys of ourhife. Tho Lord is lotting us live in a very quict aud peaceful state nowadays; but if” the fires of persecution were startod’ again_there would be found many martyrs who would sell their life rather than lose this groatestof all treasures, the kingdom of heav GOSY What the Earn the Cha Osana, Neb,, March 12,—To the Editor of Tue Bee: Thoe Nebraska Gospel union will take up the work of supplying school houses and all ncedy places as rapidly as possible with gospel services once each week, and seeis to unito believers in gospel bands for bible study and Christian work, and encour- age the holding of coltago meetings and house to house visitation, County organizations will be effocted as rapidly as men can be found to take up the worlk 0f county secretaries, who will arrange for bibie clussos and superintend the work of supplying needy laces with the gospel.

HOW IT PRO gence oflice fonent st ploy ment there ot b delivered by Mr. Rev. F. W. Bross, French, Rev. AL Workings of the S lety Which Intends to Help Homcless Boys and Girl A good sized audience guthered at the First Congregational church last evening to near Colouel A, Hoagland, president of the Boys and Girls National Home and Employ- ment association, lecture on the work of the society. The speaker was introduced by the pastor, Rev. Dr. Duryea. President Hoagland is weil known all over the country on account of the interest he has taken in the welfare of homeless children ana tho nowsboys and bootblacks who run streets of the large cities. In commencing the speaker said that he had come to Omaha in the interest of a special phase of charitabie work, the Boys and Girls Nationar Home ana Employment association. “Proventlon of crime,” said Colonel Hoagland, *is better than' trying to curo it. ‘Lhat is our motto. Prevention is picking up poor, deserted homeless boys and girls and finding them homes out in the country among the farmers. To try and cure crime is to lock the boys and mén up in jailsand reform schools. In the last nine years I have vis- ited 354 cities in tho interest of the work of our association, S will first tell you where to find crime, 1n the reform schools there are over 16,000 children, in _tho pemitentiaries (0,000 prisoners, and in_the jails throug out the land 125000 ° persons are confined. Ninety-eight out of every 100 children now detained in reform schools are from the cities, and it is amoug the slums in the big cities where most of our work in res- culng boys is going on. We take the httle helpless and homeless newsbogs and boot- blacks aud find homes for them among the farmers, where, after a shott stay, the boys como to like their new life and surroundines aud grow up into respectable, industrious young men. “In this great country of ours we have judges, juries, police aud all the mackinery nocossilry for sending men und boys to the penitentiary. But arrests don't tend to re- form or lessen orime, and, in my opinion, the only way to help aud save the youngsters who run the strects ull duy and sleep iu dry goods boxes at night is to get them a good home some place away from ovil surround ings, and whero they will have regular meals and a bed to sleep in.” Colonel Hoagland then told about some of his night trips through thoalleys in the tough parts of towns and how he had given the out- casts food and shelter and finally obtamed employment and homes for them, ~ The presi- dent then explained the workings of several refuge institutions, mauintained by charity and the association, and urged uvon those present the necessity for some such home or refuge in this city. ~At the conclusion of tne address a collection was taken up and quit a sum of money raised to assist in the associa- tion’s work, Will Entertaln Conference Delegates, The coming Methodist conference contin- ues to attract much interestawong all de- nominations, as everyoue appreciates the great good Omaba may gaiu from this very influential body, But few are met who are #0 devoid of public spirit as not to desire to entertain o delegate.
