This FATHER SAW HIM"

Mr. Moody says that that father was
looking through the telescope of his love.
! hav: always felt that he was looking
through his tears. It is said that when as
tronomers want to increase the scope OF
their vision they add to the number Of
lenses. and sometimes our falling tears are
like the lenses in the telescope. They
bring objects far removed nigh unto Us.
But what q comfort it is to know that
the Great Father Of US all looks after US
with q pity that is iniInite and with q sym
pathy that is beyond conception. The
vision of the father of the prodigal was
limited. but Gods eye sweeps through all
space, and He sees US wherever we are.

BUT WHEN HE WAS YET A GREAT
WAY OFF,"

These words must have q wonderful
meaning, for the measurement 10 from
Gods standpoint. It would be an awful
thing to be a great way of according to
mans conception, but when it is the com.
putation Of One who is infinite we are
startled, and yet our amazemcnt gives way
instantly to alteration, for We are told that
even il we are so great q distance from
Him We are not to be discouraged. In
Acts ii: 80. We read that the promise is
unto "all that are afar off," and in Ephe-
SLAMS ii: Is. II. we are told that Eye who
sometimes were far of are made nigh by
the blood Of Christ" and that Jesus Christ
came and preached peace to you which
were afar off," as wen rs to them that
were nigh. 1t never is any question with
God IA to how deeply n has sinned. It 10
o remarkable thing that throughout the
whole Bible He has ever chosen the most
conspicuous sins and the most fragrant sin.
ners that He might present to US His will
Gngness to forgive.
God requires but three things If we
First: there must be q willing mind. In
Isaiah j: 10. we read, "If We be willing and
obedient. ye shall eat the good Of the
land" In another place we read, IF there
be first q willing mind, it is accepted for
what q man hath and not for what he
hath not" In still another place we are
told, IF any man will do His win he shall
know of the doctrine" God Himself, inf.
mite though He may be, win not save US
against our wills.
Second. there must be O desire to know
the truth that we may do it. Mere knowl-
edge of the truth may be our condemna-
ton. and it is the saddest thing in the
world that SO many people know and vet
are, unwilling to do. It win be an awful
judgment which must finally fall upon the
rank and file of men because al their lives
they lived under the shadow of the church
and heard the preaching Of the word, all
of which condemns them.
The third requirement is an honest con-
fession Of ones intentions. God never
gives to n more light than he uses, but
II there is in the heart q single desire, how.
ever faint, to know Him. and that desire is
confessed before men and unto God, He
enlarges our vision, sheds upon US more
abundant light. and it 10 always by the
way Of confession that we enter into the
fulncss Of JOY.

AND THEY KILLED FOR HIN THE
FATTED CALF"

I can sec the old father as he runs from
home to home exclaiming, Come and re.
ioice with me, for my boy was dead and
is alive again. He was lost and is found"
and they begin to be merry. One can never
have the fatted calf killed for him but
once. but one Of the delightful things about
the Christian life is that we may repeated.
" sit down to enjoy the feast for others,
and it is thrilling to know that we never
have q time of f~easting here that they do
not have q time of rejoicing in heaven.
For there is Joy in the presence OF the an
gels of God over one sinner that repent
eth" m.
At the close of a meeting in Joliet, ILL.,
nois. I sat down beside an honored evan
relist, Rev. H. w. Brown, and among
other things in his career, he told me this
story:
markable work Of grace in the lake region
Of Wisconsin in that town OF the strange
arace he returned one day for a little visit.
and as he stepped Of from the cars he saw
at the station m old man named James
Stewart. Knowing him well he asked him
why he was there. The old man replied
that his bow had gone away from home
and had said to him. Father. ! will re;
turo some dav. but ] can not tell when,'
and said he. ~ am Whiting for him to come
back" Stranre rs it NAV seem. thirteen
years afterward he revisited that Old town:
and the first man he raw when getting. of
from the cars was this old father, He had
forgotten his story. bnt he met him. say.
ING. "Mr. Brown. he hasn't come yet. but
he will come, and I am waiting" Just
then" said my friend. al lifted up my
eyes and saw one walking down the aisle OF
the car, and said 10 myself. IL / was not
s,,re that the bov was dead I would say
that that was the son." But other eyes
had secn him. too. and with n great bound
the old father snrape to the steps OF the
rar. and When the boy reached the Mat
form. and in less time than ! can tell It.
he wa. in his fathers arms. The old faith
er sobbcd out. "Oh. my son; thank Tod
you've come, you've come" and then,
turning to nv friend. he said: "Mr:
Brown. 7 should have waited until died,
Thus God waits. and loo':s and yearns and
loves. Thus Jesus Christ e~ntreats us to
look unto Him and be saved, and in His
name I bid you come.

which is located between the Hully

of ore four feet wide, which assays

Lyon County times. [volume] (Silver City, Nev.) 1874-1907, 1903-11-07

Mr.. Harrison Yarnell, who went
to Rockland some weeks ago to in
spect the Nevada Chief property,
returned from there the first of the
week and continued on to Los An
geles. He reports good 4-foot ledge
of ore in the mine, from which he
made a test run in the company's
small mill which was more than
satisfactory. The only difficulty
with the property is lack OF water
for milling purposes, and it is pos
sible that the mill will in the near
future be moved to the river, a dis
lance of but few miles, cyanide
plant added and probably a tram
way to carry the ore to the mill.
The mill is running about eight
hours of the twenty-tour now, and
small force of men is at work in
the mine.
