Heavenly Fathers character has been
so misrepresented to them by the

Him. AS the proper thought of Gods

The Mistake
of Her Life
II Was Rectified by a
Third Party
By MAY c. ~ErHERIDcE

/ am fond of motoring and am con
sidered about as good a driver as any
woman in the town in which / live.
In summer I make long tours, some
times extending owe several weeks.
One night while touring l stopped
at a neat farmhouse, the owner and
sole occupant of which was a young
woman about twenty-seven and come
", but there was a dissatisfied express
sion on her face as though she had met
with some serious disappointment.
She told me her name was Elizabeth
Wyman; her father and mother were
dead and had left her the property on
which she liyed-a dairy farm. She
had nothing to complain of except lone
liness. l suggested that an attractive
young woman with a nice farm should
have no trouble in getting a good hus-
band, the best panacea for loneliness.
This brought about a confidence which
resulted in her giving me the cause of
her disappointed look.
''The trouble about men, she said,
sis that they don't understand Us wo-
men,"
"And perhaps" ] interrupted, 1--WE
women don't understand men,"
"When / was a girl living here with
my parents a man named Warren
bought a farm down where the road
crosses the creek. He had a son nam
ed Abner. / first me Abner Warren
at a cornhusking, and he picked me
out among all the girls present, dane
ing with me oftener than with any of
the rest of them. He seemed then to
be a fine, manly fellow who could look
any one straight in the eye. He didn't
treat me right afterward, but however
he acted he had that same honest pride
in his look.
1.-TWO or three of the girls made a
dead set for him, and Agnes Walker
got him. | thought at the time she
must have managed 1t very adroitly.

ing himself to her when he had-at
least on our first acquaIntance-favor-
ed me. Agnes was not well liked by
us girls, and that was another reason
why l was surprised at Abner's en-
gaging himself to her.
"The engagement between these two
didn't last long. l never understood
why it was broken, and no one else
seemed to know. Abner never said a
word about it. As for Agnes, all she
would say was that she didn't care.
1t was whispered about that she didn't
confne her lovemaking to Abner, and
he objected to having to divide it with
some one else. 1t was the general i'm
preston that Agnes was one of that
kind of girls who make, or seem to
make, easy conquests of men, but who
don't seem to have the faculty of hold
ing them after they get them.
..As soon as Abner Warren broke with
Agnes he renewed his attentions to
me. I was glad enough to get him
back. though his affair with her left a
scar in me. He was very respectful
to me as well as attentive, and it was
not long before he proposed to me

The elder brother was indeed hidden
to the feast; but he was angry and re-
fused to come. jealous that the father
should receive the young spendthrift
The elder brother class did not show
the right spirit for those for whom the
Kingdom privileges were intended, all
of whom must be meek. gentle. loving
copies of Gods dear Son in their
generous good will toward all desir-
GUS of coming to the Father.
The Principle Applies Broadly.
While this parable illustrated the
two classes of Jews. the principle set
forth applies generally. In the world
there are noble characters. well-born
and apparently the very mes to be
chosen of God to be joint-heirs with
His Son in the Kingdom. Neyerthe-
less, the Scriptures make clear that
not many such will be of the Kingdom
class. q Corinthians 1:26-29) This
better class. represented by the elder
brother, seem to feel that in contrast
with the lower strata they are perfec-
ton itself; and that God would surely
desire them.
But all are sinners. whether they
know it or not; and all should be hon
est enough to confess the fact. God
requires this very honesty. this con-
fession of our need. before Christ's
merit can be imputed to us. covering
our blemishes. God evidently wishes
to have a class honest enough to ac-
knowledge their own imperfections
and unworthiness of His favors-
Those who SO confess He will bless
with a knowledge of themselves and
of His righteousness; whereas others.
self-satisfied and unwilling to accept
His grace in Christ or to confess their
need of a, covering for their blemishes,
are not humble enough to be of the
Kingdom class.
Not Many Rich, Noble or Wise.
Thus it comes that the majority Of
those who accept Gods favor and be-
come His children are from the young
er brother class-not many rich, noble.

~HE setting of the parable of
The Prodigal Son demonstrates
~ the Masters object in giving
it. He was seeking to show
the Pharisees that their position re-
specting publicans and sinners was
wrong. He here pointed out that this
wrong attitude was likely to cost them
their own share in the Kingdom.
In the parable the father evidently
represents God; and the sons represent
the two general classes into which the
Jewish nation had divided itself. The
elder son class were those who sat in
Moses seat. professed loyalty to God,
and outwardly e~ndeayored to keep His
Law. The younger son class were
those who had misused their privileges
as benefciaries of the Divine promises
and wasted their opportunities in self
qualification.
This class of publicans and sinners
felt their degradation. and longed to
return to the Fathers House. Spirit
ually ragged and hungry. they hesitat-
ed to go back. 1t was just such char
acters that Jesus especially encouraged
to have confidence In the Fathers will
ingness to receive those who came to
Him penitently. The parable tells
that some of this class returned to
God. and because Of their penitence
were granted special manifestations of
Divine favor.
Application of the Parable.

the lengths. breadths. heights and

JOSEPH CHAMBERLAIN
VICTIM OF PARAL YSIS
One Of the Most Strikinu Fla.
ures in British Politics Re-
moved by Death.

LONDON, July s.-Joseph Cham.
sberlain died here last night. -
The death Of Joseph Chamberlain
which removes one Of the most strit' ,sTt.
ing hgures from British politics II
the last generation, came as an en-
tire surprise as the condition of tis
health was not publicly known to be
any worse than at any time In the
last two or three years.
Mrs. Chamberlain, who never left
her husbands side since he was
stricken with paralysis seven years
ago. and his son, Austen, were with
him when death occurred at i o: 30
O'Clock last night at his London res
idence. The event cast a gloom over
the London season which was at its
height. - -.t' -
Mr.. Chamberlain.s last public an
pearance was at garden party on
the grounds Of his Birmingham home
on May 6 last when with his wife
and son he received several hundred
constituents. he was wheeled out
on the lawn and appeared very ema-
ciated and feeble when he lifted his
hat to friends and neighbors in &C
acknowledgement Of their salute.
Tariff reforms which with imper-
ialism were the chief policies for
which Joseph Chamberlain was
spokesman when enforced retirement
through paralysis occurred, have suf-
fered an almost complete eclipse, his
son. Austen. being almost the only
British statesman who advocates Il
on all OCCASIONS.

JAYENNE PLANT
viii Be Abandoned by Street
Car Company Owing to
Bad Water in River.

FAIRMoNT, July 3.-The Monon-
sah Valley Traction Company has de-
cfded to vacate its Jayenne power
plant on account Of the water supply
being so impregnated with poisonous
matters from plants situated on the
West Fork river that steam cannot be
generated for the manufacture of cur
rent needed for the operation Of the
electric lighting system Of the city
or the trolley lines over the Monon-
gahela Valley system.
The Jayenne plant and its equip
ment installed has cost the company
upwards Of S300.000. 1t is likely
that the new plant will be located
at Hutchinson and that instead Of
being steam plant, gas engines
will be installed, The Consolida-
tion Coal Company has its central
plant at Hutchinson and the monster
gas engines are little affected with
the water conditions that make The
Jayenne plant impossible.
The work on the new plant will be
started soon and will be rushed to
completion as fast as possible.
