The ProdiGal Daughter.


have had the lesson of the prodigal
son, and it has been the source of
many glowing word pictures and
narrowing details. Volumes have
been written, sermons by the mil
lion delivered, and buckets of ink
wasted, depicting his utter selfish
ness, the want and misery into
which the prodigal fell before he
returned to the father for forgive
ness.
We have never been much i'm
pressed with the prodigal son. He
repented, but it was as the result
of conditions that were unendura-
bic. The great character of the
story is the father. His continu-
ing love amid unthankfulnesS and
prOfligacy The enduring patience
which recognizing human weakness
yearned for the boy for whose
birth he was responsible and could
forgive and forget all in the newly
awakened consciousness of I'M
worthiness. Of course we appre-
ciate the lesson the parable teaches.
The infinite patience and love of
God, but the Saviour who uttered
it made the parent an earthly
father and the case is not without
parallel in every day life of the
present.
We hear so much of the prodi-
gal son and so little of the prodi-
gal daughter. And yet in the ev-
cry day life and conditions existing
in our own generation there is as
much occasion for pictures of the
prodigal daughter as there are for
the prodigal son. We have often
wondered why no inspiring lesson
has ever been uttered showing the
return of the daughter from the
boys and morasseS in which she
has wandered and her disgust of
the filth of the swine and the pitch
with which she has been defiled.
Is the silence of the Scriptures on
this subject an evidence of the be-
lief entertained by many that when
a woman takes the path that leads
to hell, that she can return nc
more?
In the infinite Love of the Heav-
emily Father we believe that those
who come in true sincerity. repent
ling of previous error and sin, are
received as willingly and pardon
ed as readily whether they are
male or female. That in the plan
of redemption they who repent are
all alike worthy of mercy.
But in the meantime the religi-
Gus forces of the country 90 forth

speak of the wandering boy as if he
alone were worthy Of salvation,
while eacross the stage of human
existence tramp an endless army of
girls and women, going to the life
of the brothel and taking the places
of street walkers and courtesans.
