"AND THEY KILLED FOR HIM THE
FATTED CALF"

I can see the old father as he runs from
home to home exclaiming, "Come and re-
joice 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 a time of feasting here that they do
not have a time of rejoicing in heaven,
For there is joy in the presence of the an

gelist, Rev. n. w. Brown, and among
other things in his career, he told me this
story:
A number of years before he had a re-
markable work of grace in the lake region
of Wisconsin in that town of the strange
name. Oconomowoc. After his work OF
grace he returned one day for a little visit.
and as he stepped off from the cars he saw
Stewart. Knowing him well he asked him
WHY he was there. The old man replied
that his boy had zone away from home
and had said to him, Father. ] viii re-

when the father started out from the house
running to meet his boy, that the servants
must have noticed MIN. and possibly they
ran after him. When the father saw the
condition of the son / can hear him as he
turned to the approaching servants to say,
run, bring the best robe and put It on
him." and It is a beautiful thing to me to
know that when they brought the robe the
father wrapped it round about him, thus
covering over all the signs of his wander
ing. This is what God does for me and
for You. The moment we believe the
robe of Christ's Righteousness Is placed
about us. and God looks upon us as with
out spot or blemish, for we are at once ae-
cepted in the beloved.
Third. he put the ring on his hand. The
ring is always the emblem for complete
ness. And this was a beautiful Illustration
of the fact that the fathers love was per-
feet, and that his love had not been at
fected by the wanderings of the boy. This
is certainly true of God, and / know no
better figure to give a thought of his love
than that of the ring.
"For the love of God is broader than the
measure of mans mind,
And the heart of the Eternal is most
wonderfully kind"
Fourth, he put shoes on his feet. l can

| with difficulty, but when he was well shod
| with shoes from the kings house | can see
| him taking the hand of the old father and
running back to his home. One OF the
| commonest excuses presented by men for
not Welding to Christ is the fear that they
NAV not hold out, but to me it is comfort
| ing to know that the moment we are saved
| He puts shoes on our feet, and that we are
| shod with the preparation of the gospel OF
| peace.

\ Yes. he knew them, but when? and
how? Long since, he thought; and
then, casting his eye through the front
glass. which had been recently oc-
cluded by the figure of the jarvey, he
beheld the tree-tops Of the rookery in
Randolph Crescent. He was close to
Monochrome, where he had thought, at
that hour, to be sitting in the well-re-
membered drawing-room in friendly
converse; and, instead!-
1t was his first impulse to drop into
the bottom of the cab; his next, to
cover his face with his hands. So he
sat, while the cabman toasted the pub
lcan, and the publican toasted the cab
man, and both reviewed the affairs of
the nation; so he still sat, when his
master condescended to return, and
drive off at last down hill along the
curve of Lynedoch Place; but even so
sitting, as he passed the end Of his
fathers street, he took one glance from
between shielding fingers, and beheld q
doctors carriage at the door.

his breath congealing on the glasses,

The thought stirred his Imagination,
which began to manufacture many

like the shapes in kaleidoscope; and
now he saw himself, ruddy and COM

again, little, woe-begone, bored ur-
