Many times have I beee asked to preatth a sermon .about the elder brother of the parable. I received .a lo er from Canada 'saying, 'Is the ,e1 - tier son, of the parable so unsympa- thetic and so cold that he is not WOr thy of recognition?'' The fact is that we ministers pursue the younger son. Y•ou ,can hear the flapping of his rags in lhany a sermonic breeze and the eiranciiiiig of the pods for whiali he was an unsuccessful con- testant. IE confess that it has been difficult for este lo train the camera obscura upon the :elder son •of the Parable. I ,could not get a negative Lor a photograph. There was :not enough light in the gallery, or the chemicals were , too poor, ,or the' sit- ter anoved .in the picture., But mow I think I ,haVe him, not a side face or a three-quarters ,or the mere bust, but a full length portrait as he ap- pears to me. The father in •tbe ,par- able of the prodigal had nothing to .brag of in his two sons. The ,one was a rake .and the other a curl. find nothing admirable dn the disso- luteness of the one, and 1 find noth- ing attractive 'in the acrid sobriety 'of the .other. The one goes •clown over the larboard side, and the 'other goes !lown over the starboard side, but they both .go .clown. From all the windows ,of the old homestead bursts the minstrelsy. The floor quakes with the feet of the rus- tics, whose ,dance is always vigor- ous and' resounding. The neighbors have heard of the return of the younger son from his wanderings, and they have gathered together. The house is fell •of congratulators. I suppose the tables are loaded with luxuries, not only the one lcind Of meat mentioned, but its concomi- tants. --Clap!'' •go the cymbals, "Thrum!" go the harps, 'Click!'' go the chalices, up and down go the feet •inside, while 'outside is .a most sorry spectacle. ' The senior ,son •stancls at the corner of the house, a frigid phlegmatic. Be has just come in from the fields in very substantial .apparel. Seeing - some wild exhilarations around the old mansion, he asks of a servant . passing by with a goat -skin of wine on " his shoulder what all the fuss is 1( about. One would thave thought that, on hearing that his younger brother had got back, he svoulcl 'have gone into the abuse amd.rejateed,,and if he were not conscientiously ,oPpos- ed to dancing, that he would have joined the oriental schottish. No, there he stands. His brow 'lowers; his face darkens; his lip .curls with contempt.. He stamps the ground with indignatton; he sees nothing at all to attract. The odors of the feast, coming' out ,on the air, :do not sharpen his appetite. The lively music does not put any spring into he his. • step. He is in a terrible pout. 1i.:1-1 He cedticises ' the expe1 'e, the d•njus- 00 tice and the nacre's of the ,enterteen- wa ment. The father rushes ,out bare- headed and coaxes hini to .come an. He will not go in. He scolds the father. 1 -Te goes into ,a- pasquinade against the Younger brother, :and he makes the most uncomely scene. He says; , "rather, you put ,a premium on vagabondism. I 'staid at home and worked on the farm. You never, made a party for ine; you didn't so much as kill a kid. That wouldn't have cost half as much as a calf; but this scapegrace went off in fine clothes, and he comes back not fit to be seen, and what a time you 'make , over him! He breaks your- heart,, .-and you pay him for It. That calf ato which we have been giving extra Iced during all these weelcs; wouldn't be so fat and sleek if a I h',a known to swhat use you were going to put it. That vagabond deserves to be cow- thided instead of banqueted. Veal is .etock good for him." That evening, Agwhile the younger, son sat telling his lather about his adventures and ask- ng- hbout what had occurred on the place since his departure, the senoir brother , goes to bed disgusted and elams tbe door after him. That sen- ior brother still lives. You can See, him on Sunday, ,any 6113r of the week. At .a meeting of ministers in Ger- many some one asked the question "Who is that elder sen?" and Krum- gen maches answered, I know him; hou • , saw him yesterday." And evleen they und -were sutterly -,olneoXious. I never 'so badly, cheated in my as by, a, perfect man. He got se far up in his«devotions that he was clear up above all .the rules of common honesty.

We hear a great deal in mir day about, the higher life. Now, there are two kinds of higher. life. r.alie one is ad- mirable, and the other is most repul- sive.

Again the senior brother of my text stands for all those who. are faith- less about the reformation of the dissipated and the dissolute. In the very tones of his voice you can hear the fact that he has no faith that the reformation of the younger son is gemine. 1-Iis entire manner seems to say: "That boy has .conie back for more money. He got a third of the property; now he has come back for another third. , He will never be coo - tented to stay on the farm. He will fall away. I *would go in too and rejoice with.- the others if I thought this thing were genuine; but it is a sham. That boy is a confirmed in- ebriate and debauchee." Alas, my friends, for the incredulity in the church of Christ in regard to the re- clamation of the recrectnt! You say man has been a strong drinker. I saay, ''Yes, but he has reformed." "Oh," you say, with a lugubrious face, "1 hope you are not mistaken; 1 hope you are not mistaken." You y: "Don't rejoice, too much over is conversion, for soon' he will be iconverted, I fear. Don't make too g a, party for that returned procli- al or , strike the tinthrel too loud; id, if you kill a calf, kill the one at is on the commons and not the e that has been luxuriating• M lie ddock." That is the reason why ore ,prodigals do not come home to, er father's house. It is the rank fidelity in the church of God on s subject. There is not a house .the.streets of heaven that has not .it a ,procligal that returned and aid home. There could be unrolle6. fore you a scroll of a Inindred ousand namea—the names of pro - gals who came back forever re - timed. You .do not know how to shake nds with a prodigal. You 'do not ow thow to pray for him. You do t know how to greet him. He nts to .sail into the 'wenn gulf team of 'Christian syinpathy ou tire the !berg ,against which he stril,:es and shivees. You sa,y he has been a prodigal. a know it, but you are the sour, unresponsive, censorious, saturnine, ,cainky elder brother, ,and if you are .going to heaven one would think some people would be tempted to go to perditiort to get away from you. The hunters say that if a deer be shot the ,other deer shove him out of their company, and the gen- eral rule is--eaway with a nia,n that has been wounded with sin. Noev, say, the more hones a, fm an has brok- en the more, need he 'has of a hos- pital, and the mare a man has been bruised • and cut with sin the more need he has to be carried into hu- nian and divine sympathy. 'But .for such men there is not much .room in this world—the men who want to come back after wandering. .Plenty of room for elegant sinners, for sin- ners in velvet and satin and lace, for sinners high sala,riecl, for kid -gloved and patent-lea,thered sinners, for ain- rters fixed up by hairdresser, porna- tumed and lavenclered . and cologned and frizzled and crimped and "bang- ed" sinners --plenty of room!

Wa$ fit; solemn to me as two fu als--the funeral of the" body and funeral of the soul. Beware, thou also be tempted! Again, I remark that the senior brother of my text stands for the spirit of envy and jealousy. The sen- ior brother Ulm:gist that all the hon- or they did to the returned brother was a wrong to him, 'He said, "I have stayed at home, and I ought to have had the ring, and I ought to have had the bauquet, and ought. to have had the garlands." .Alas, for this spirit of envy and jealousy coaling down through the ages! Cain and Abel, Esa.0 and Jacob, Saul arid David, Hainan and Mordecai, Othel- lo and Lego, Orlando and Angelica, Caligula and Torq 0 a bus, „Caesar and Pompey, Columbus n d the Spanish courtiers, Cambyses and the brother he slew because he .was a better marksman, Dionysius and Philoxen- Ms, whont he slew because he was a better. singer. Jealousy among paint- ers. Closterman and Geoffrey Knel- ler, Hudson and Reynolds, Francia, anxious to see a picture of Raphael, Raphael sends him a picture. F'rancia, seeing it, falls in a fit of jealousy, from which he -dies. Jealousy among authors. Row seldom contemporar- ies- speak of each other! Xenophon and Plato living at the same time, but from their writings you never would suppose they heard of each other. Oh, this accursed spirit of envy and jealousy! Let us stamp it out from all our hearts. A wrestler was so envious of Theog,enes, the prince of wrestlers, that he could not be consoled in any way; and after Theogeues died and a statue was lifted to hien in a public place his envious antagonist went out every night and wrestled with the statue, until one night he hrel,v it, and it fell on him and crushed him to death. So jeolousy is not only absurd, but it is killing to the body, and it is killing to the soul. How seldom it is you find one mer- chant speaking well of a merchant in the same line of business. How sel- dom it is you hear a physician speak- ing well of a physician on the sanie block. Oh, my friends, the world is large enough for p.11 of us. Let us rejoice at 'the success of others, The next best thing to owning a garden ourselves is to look over the fence and admire the flowers. The next hest thing to riding in Inc equipage is to stand on the street and admire the prancing span. The next best thing to having a banquet given to ourselves is having a ban- quet given ' to our prodigal broth that has come to his father's hous Once more I have to tell you th this senior brother of my text start for the pouting Christian. Whi there is so much congratulation wit in doors, the hero of my text stem outside, the corners of his mou -drawn down, looking as he felt—mi t,erable.

The chart we herewith* show is for a ring of 16 niemaers. The members each agree to put in a beast that will dress say 400 pounds, which will allow 25 pounds to each member. A beast is lcilled each week and distributed to the members in such u, syst,ein as to give each a dif- feretit cut each vclek-, so that by the end of the 16 NVeeks, as the case might be, each member will have re- ceived a whole carcass in weelcly sec- tions. A butcher is appointed, as well as a secreeary. The leutcher provides a suitable place for killing, and fur- nishes a hook for every inember, on which each man's share is hung. He kills the animal in the evening and cuts it up in the morning, weighs each share, hangs it upon its respec- tive hook. He keeps an accurate ac- count of the weight of each animal Of the quantity that each one re- ceives per week. He changes each week the order in which the' cuts are distributed; that is, the cut No. 1 receives this week, No. 2 receives next week, and No. 1 takes the place of No. 16.
