You will netice that the next two col- umns give the figures for seven per cent. and ten per cent. underweight. Thus, the table shows that the av- erage weight of girls 54 inches height is 70.3 pounds. If a girl of this height weighs 66.4 pounds she is seven per cent under weight for her height, and must gain five pounds before she can pass her normal weight line. If she weighs 63.3 pounds, she is 10 per cent. below the standar& and has seven pounds to gain. Remember that these tables are made from the measurements of tens of thousands of children, inclutling those below the standard. The aver- ages are therefore lowe and the figures very conservative. If you find that the weight of your, &lid is habitually seven per cent, be- low the average, he is retarded be growth at least a year. This is a serious condi-bleu which merits prompt attention. In. fact, we advise yeu to look into every case that falls below the average weight for height, even by two or three per cent., and to dis- cover what is needed to bring the child up to his nonnal standard. It is just such cases, with a shortage of only a few per cent., which, under slide den strain or illness, will quickly lose enough more to become seriously under weight habitually. The only safe pollen is: Have every ehild above his normal weight linel and money-makers eather than fathers and homeenakers.

Jesus in- tends to show by this the greatness of God's forgiveness. Human sin had piled up a debt humanity never could pay. In anewer to the prayer .of peni- tence God forgives it all. Compare Exod. 34: 6-7, Psalm 103: 3-12, Ise. 55: 6-7. The contrast between the ten thou- sand talents and the hundred pence is very great. For the hitter paltry debt, amounting to eighteen or nineteen dollars, he who had been forgiven mil- lions east his fellowserv.ant into prison. He is rightly called a -wicked servant, and is justly punished for his hatoler- able meanness and cruelty. The pax - able, therefore, teaches that God's for- giving grace extends to us only if we also 'have the f.orgining spirit.

With this parable may be compared the parable of the prodigal son, whioh gets forth the wealth of love and tenderness and forgiving greee which in the heart of the heavenly Father-. He not only forgives, but weleoraes oand honors. The elder son, who did not share his father's spirit, represents the hard and unforgiving diepesition of eome otherwise good and ubright tt excuse his thinness because he is "ball men.
