teaches the same two leeserna in a
temporal eons° that Paul ioculeates
in a spiritual sense. he nega•tive
warning whicle is implied in. My text
goee praetically like this: "As We
therefore have opportunity Qo good
unto all men, for if you do not a
neglected opportunity Is aa ill Used
opportunity, And an opportunity
for doing good Once gone is gone far -
ever." My father used to love to
picture lost opportunities as a flock
of fast 'year's migrating, birds, which
when gone vannot be brought back.
I remember well how he once stood
in the 13rooklyn Tabernacle cryleg
with a loud voice to the lost oppor-
tunities those words: • "Come back,
0 ye past opportunities! Come back!
COMO back!" Then in an almost in-
audible whisper he, said: "1 hear no
flutter of any wings. I fear ray Voice
huh not carried far euough—yea, I
fear theseloste opportunities for do-
ing good will never, never come
back." The old Romanused to be-
lieve that Opportunity was a messen-
ger who had a lock- of hair growing
upon, her forehead and. that the rest
of her head was bald., They also be-
lieved she had wiugs upon her tea
and that she could fly Swifter then
the winds. They believed that if
Opportunity was not grasped by the
forehead she 'could not be caught
again, because her. wiegs, could out -
speed even the flight pf a meteor,
The Latin symbol is sic good one.
hlementous is the fact that the
past opportunities' for doing good
Will never come back, There is Many

one° read of 0, hither who in anger -
divert his son out of his honee. The
boy, on account of the tether's' bit-
terness, plunged into a life of sin, A.
few years later he was •dying in one
.of the London tenements, eJust be-
fore his last breath was drawn he
told the city missionary who he was
and why he was dying. Thenho sent
to his irate parent. these farewell
words: • "Tell father, that I could
have died happy if he only had been
willing to forgive me. Ask him to
foegive ine even if I am dead," The
missionary, as soon as he had' closed
the dead boy's eyes, went, to the real
father's. home. When he first met the
parent and said, “1 haVe mine /rem
your bey," the father's rage klaeve 110
' bounds. Ile exclaimed. in anger :.
"Don't talk to me abort my sem.
1 never want to see his face again
„while he is alive" But when • the
.
missionary said, "You Will never see
yothe bey's..face • again while he is
. alive—he is dead," the father broke
dottrels and sobbed like' a child. • .1re•
than said that he did Want hio tioy

message: his remorse was. greater
theft he •ocand bear. . All the remain-
der of his 'earthly life that' father
kept breadling and regretting the
