to embrace his prodigal son and as-

Parable could net but admit that the
picture Jesus was draWing was true to
nature. They must say that the father
did right in receiving his lost son and
rejoicing over him. They must have
seen also themselves represented by
the angry, jealous elder brother. The
.attitude of the father toward the
Younger brother was no more tendei
than toward the elder brother. He
dealt with each in love, as the cases
demanded. The elder brother's com-
plaint was not well grounded. The
fatted calf -was killed not for the
younger brother's benefit particularly,
but that the entire household might
rejoice -together over the wanderer's
return. The elder brother had teen

tail. The apostasy of 13e1.311. began be.
fore apostasy of life. There was first
dieeatisfaction or ingratitude, then
alienation or selfishness, then estrange-
ment and open rebellion. The young
man was laying his lire plans and his
first idea of liberty was to get away
from ids father, Hie was a wrong
Standard of znarlhootl, Causing his
higher nature to be dethroned. He
had run away from Ids better nature,
from all that constituted bine a man.
A new light broke upon him in the
fore him the long-exclnded image of
Ids father,. It was not only food
that he wanted, The hunger for
home was moon him. He suffered
from a deep conscioesnes3 et his most
degraded condition, In his penitence
no humilliation was too low for him,
Ile was' convirfeed tliat there was no
happiness for him but under las
father's roof. Ire began to loole at
things in the rigat light, to reason,
feel, purpose and act under the im-
pulse of true repentance. In his ac-
tion was an entire yielding up of him-
self to his father's mercy. The best
robe, the ring, the shoes were the
dress of a free-born son, and showed
to all that the father removed from
him every sign of misery and want,
every badge of servitude.
II. Intensified by self-righteousnese,
The two sons are represented as being
of very opposite habits. "My portion
of goods," was the voice of sinful inde-
pendence from the younger son. "My
faultless and meritorious character,"
wastee, elder son's estimate of him-
self. " .e6th illustrate the alienation of
the heart from God. The elder son
had been as little a true son as the
younger outcast, only his eorgetfulness
and estrangement took another form.
His disposition illustrated the decent
formalism, hard, cold heart, Jealous
temper, self-righteousness and deceit
of the scribes and Pharisees. He could
not rejoice on account of jealousy. In
him was illustrated that opposition to
the divine purpose watch. Jesus had
been detecting in all His dealings
with the scribes and Pharisees, They
lotted upon any good that came to the
Publicans as an injury to themselves.
Although they represented the Jewish
church, and observed the temple ser-
vice, they were without the "oil of
gladness." The merry -making at
home disturbed the elder brother. He
gave vent to a fit cot 'Censoriousness
in. wheel he' accused his father of fav-
oritism. He was angry at the fond
reception given to his penitent broth-
er, envious of the marks of favor
conferred on him and mortitied at the
supposed preference shown by his
noble -minded father. To mention the
evils of ells brother's lire at such a
time was bad taste and the exposure
orworse feeling. His was that sel-
fishness which burns all love out of
the soul. The conduct of the father
represents the goodness of Cod. The
same love which received the prodigal
ltome reasoned with the legal and
self-centered son to show that thongb
he had the 'Best of opportunities to
live in daily fellowship with lois fath-
er and to enter into his, plans, Ile was

Questions.—To weom did Jesus speak

colder brother? What did the younger
brother demand? What course did

grateful and jealous disposition.

I. Forgiveness upon true repentance.
This parable is the last of three stories
illustrative of salvation through Christ,
which were spoken especially to the
Pharisees because of their murmurings
against the attention Jesus paid to the
publicans. It combines the first two
with the added climax of fatherhood
and soeship, showing God's though in
emotion and purpose in redemption, to
establish a holy fondly, with himself
the divine Father. The paralail to this
picture we find in the departure of
our race .from God and his righteous-

A Letter of Unusual Interest
Describes this Remarkable Cure
•
(1111 You will learn by reading this letter how Medical
Iola doctors knock proprietary rnedicines and try to keep
people from using them and learning of their value.
This letter also shows how medicines of proven merit often cure the most compli-
cated cases after doctors had given up hope. In this case two doctors said Mr. Hyndman
could not get better, and, in fact, he daily grew weaker so long as he followed their treat-
ment. This is a remarkable victory for Dr. Chase's Medicines and you will find the
details of the case interesting.
Mr. T. Hytidtnan, Farmer, Rupert, Que., writes c—"I had been gradually failing in
health for two years and tried Many rentedies, among others I used Dr, Chase's Kidney -
Liver Pails and found thent doing me good. Some neighbors told me he Doctors said
they were dang,erous so I quit their use and went to the doctor, tinder his treatment I got
so weak I was unable to raise tny head from the pillow, and 'he told me that I had
Anaemia of the blood' and could never be better again, so X sent for another doctor and he
told inc the sante. 1 could not take their medicine and was continually vomiting, so 1
gave them up and said 'kill or cure I will again try tor. Chase's medicines.' •
I used altogether fourteen boxes of Dr. Chase's Nerve Food and six boxes nr..
Chase's Kidney-Livet Pills, and now I can work from six o'clock in the morning until
seven at night and I don't poke at it either. Any man that worka a feign knows what kind
of a job it is. 1 honestly believe that 1 owe My life to Dr. ChaSe's Nerve Food and Pine,
and I praise them everywhere 1 go. Many of the people here use them to keep the
system in good condition and prevent disease." . .
Dr. Chase's Nerve Food has no rival as a means of enriching the blood and building up the system.

NERVOUS DISEASES
IN THE SPRING
Cured by Tonin d the Blood and
Strendthenind the Nerves.
It is the opinion of the best medi-
cal authorities, after long observa-
tion, that nervous diseases are more
common and mare serious In the
spring than at any otner time of the
year, Vital changes in the system,
after long winter months, may cause
much more trouble than the familiar
spring weakness and weariness from
which most people suffer as tile re-
sult of indoor life, in poorly ventil-
ated and often overneated buildings.
Official records prove that in April
and May neuralgia, St. Vitus dance,
epilepsy and other forms of nerve
troubles are at their worst, and that
then. more than any other time, a
blood -making, nerve -restoring tonic is
needed.
The antiquated custom of taking
purgatives In the spring is useless,
for the system really needs strength-
ening, while purgatives only gallop
through the bowels, leaving you weak-
er. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are the
best medicine, for they actually make
the new, rich, red blood that feeds
the starved nerves, and thus cure the
many forms of nervous disorders.
They cure also sucn other forms of
spring troubles as headaches, poor
appetite, weakness In the limbs, as
well as remove Unsightly pimples and
eruptions. In fact they unfailingly
aring new health and strength to weak,
deed and depressed men, women and
all medicine dealers or by
