Golden Text.—There is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repented?. -- Luke 51:10. THE LOST BOY. No other story has so much of the gospel in it, exhibits so much 'of the heart of Christ. It is "the pearl of parables." And he said. Still seeking to make the hard-hearted Pharisees and scrib- es ashamed of their attitude !toward the repentant publicanand sinners. A certain man. Representing God, the heavenly Father, whose 'seeking love had been shown in the first two parables. Had two sons. The -young- er son represents the priblicarre 'and sinners, the older son the reepettable and eelf-righteous Pbanisees nerd scribes. And the younger of them said to his father,. Be •showed the aggres- siveness and enterprise of youth, its impatience with custom and routine, its adventuresome spirit, its imprud- ence and iasharess, its all -too -fre- quent selfishne.ss and inconsiderate pleasure -seeking. Father, giernme the portion of thy substance flint falleth to me. When the father 'died, the younger son would inherit one-third of the movable property, and the old- er son would receive a "datable por- tion" or two-thirds. And he :divided unto them his living. Here the par - able sets forth the fact that we are architects of our own fate. And not many days after. See how impatient the boy is, how eager to set out on his foolish venture. The younger son gathered all together, He sold what he could not readily carry, weighing down his girdle -purse with the proceeds, and feeling rich indeed, a man of means. And took his journey into a fer country. The younger son woe in a far country be- fore he crossed the threshold of his father's house, and while he only wished to cross it, while he had bro- ken 'loose from his father's love and wished to depart from the ways of trustful obedience. And there he wasted his substance with riotous liv- ing, The elder son supplied the de- tails readily enough (verse 30). And when he had spent all. How often must men come to the end of all their ;resources before they will throw 'themselves on the resources en the Infinite Father! There arose •a mighty famine in that country, Sin 18 lennger. And he began to neal- eze the emptiness of sin, now unsat- isfactory it is, how false 'are its pro- mises of pleasure and profit. And he' went and noined himself to one of the citizens of that coun- try. The Verb meant that he glued himself to the man, slung desperate- ly to hint until to get rid of his im- portunity he gave 'him a job—the lowest jab he had. .And he sent him into his fields to feed swine.

The carob tree is a common tree in Palestine, haying sweet pods which are often fed to pigs. And no man gave unto him, For true friendship one must go to God's children and not to worldlings. But when he came to himself. Ev- ery sinner comes to a time when he realizes the emptiness of his wicked pleasures. He said, How many hired servants of my father's, The menials of the household in which he had been an honored and beloved son.

Plenty against want and satisfaction against starva- tion and a loving father against a heartless master! I will arise and go to my father. Repentance is being sorry, to be sure, but that is not enough; it is "being sorry enough to quit." And. will say say unto hirn, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, We' owe God the best use of the body and soul he has' made, and we :owe man ourselves at our best. ant no more worthy to be called thy son. So it is with the sinner, who has been disloyal to his heav- enly Father and has not cared to be numbered among the childnen of God Make me as one of 'thy hired serv- ants. A true conversion is always marked by humility. THE WELCOMING FATHER AND THE JEALOUS Mrs. Earl Howes . and daughter, 13ROTHER., And he arose, and came to his fa- ther, It is always rnuch easier to go away from the Father's home than to get back again; but the prodigal's heart was singing all the way, for 'he was geerig home--linme! But while he was yet afar oft, his father saw him, God cannot &roe any wan- dering ehild to return. And was moven 'with compa-seion.
