So far in the parable Jesus had kept
closely to the man and his servants.
Now in his large conception of the
conditions which govern service as
parable for a moment The sentence
on the worthless fellow is left I'M
spoken, and he puts in a comment that
is full of interest.
VS.. 20. ITO every one that hath
shall be given" 1t is the law of used
opportunity which is written here.
Opportunity is Gods greatest gift to
men. Opportunity wisely used brings
more opportunity That is Just. That
is always true of men that start with
little and acquire much. 1t may be
said, that he that hath hath what he
hath, because he hath been faithful to
wat he hath had Used opportunity
means new opportunity But neglected
opportunity, as i'll the case OF the one
talent servant. means not only loss OF
what opportunity had been once his,
but also denial of anything beyond.
Then Jesus remembered he had not
finished with the worthless servant,
and he returned to him.

servant No place for him among

him in darkness from the sight OF men,

Outer darkness. Weeping. wailing,
teeth crashing That is the second
step into the realm OF horror that shall
be to those who are unworthy when
the Lord shall come The first was at
the end OF the parable of the Ten Vir-
gins. THE door was shut" This is
the second. Outer darkness. Weep
ing, waiing, cursing" The third is af-
ter the next lesson.
What are you, profitable or an
Improbable servant?
Are you faithful to your opportuni,
ties. Remember the great question
IS, not What are my opportunities? but
Am faithful to them, such as they
are?

Rheumatic
Pains

"My mother is a great suf-
ferer from rheumatism, and DR..
Miles Anti-Pain Pills is the only
remedy that relieves her."
MRS. G. DAVENPORT.
Roycefeld, N. J.
The pains of rheumatism are
almost invariably relieved with
DIR. Miles Anti-Pain Pills. They
also overcome that nervous irri-
tat;on which prevents sleep be-
cause they soothe the nerves. To
chronic suffers they are invalu-
able. When taken as directed,
they relieve the distress and
save the weakening influence of
pain, which so frequently pros
trates. Many sufferers use them
whenever occasion requires with
the greatest satisfaction, why
not you? They do not derange
the stomach nor create a habit.
Why not try them? Get pack
age from your druggist. Take it
according to directions, and if
it does not benefit he will return
your money.
