MMf PHILS«i purine THE FOOL! Sinner, Sorry For His Sin, Is Sure of Welcome From the Father HE CARES FOR COMMON FOLK Climate of "Far Country" Condu cive to Cold Chills on the Morning After SNOBS, SINNERS AND A SAVIOUR The International Sunday School Les son For May 3, Is "Tho Prodigal Son"—Luke 15:11-32. (By Win. T. Ellis) A Chinese illustrated version of this Prodigal Son story lies before me as I write. The pictures are intelligible. If not the text. Tho first scene shows a home of the Chinese gentry, with an upper-class old man handing over to his pig-tailed son a quantity of sli ver shoes, the old Chinese currency. Next the youth, in his best Chinese raiment, is leaving home while hia father weeps. The "far country" is a tea house, where the youth is feast ing and drinking with a dancing girl. Next he is shown as a tattered Chi nese beggar, out amid the Chinese groves, herding Chinese pigs. Then we see him barefooted and in rags, being greeted by his father outside the Chinese gate of the old home. He is being clothed in the next picture, and the feast that followed, in typ ical Chinese fashion, is a feast of the gentry, older men, his father's friends. We scarcely need a Chinese ver sion to prove the universality of the story. Fifteen minutes on the city's main street to-night will show prod igals dressed in the latest fashions. There are thousands of fathers whose last thought to-night will be of wan dering sons, who are playing the fool. Few things are commoner in the ex perience of society than this one of the boy who, heedless of the hopes centered upon him. and lacking sense and character, turns his back upon home and love and goes forth to "see life." The World's Most Famous Story One school of literature demands fiction without a moral teaching. Not so the present story. It is told to il lustrate a great truth. The reason for its relation lies in the two sen tences which introduce these three parables of grace. These are the key to the narrative; without them its meaning may not certainly be un locked. Here is the significant intro duction: "Now all the publicans and sinners were drawing near unto Him for to hear Him. And both the Phar isees and the Scribes murmured, say ing, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them." This was the teproach of Jesus then. It is His praise now. He cares for the common people. I once heard a blat ant dunce declare, "Christ came to found an intellectual aristrocracy." Jesus came to found no aristrocracy, except of holiness, and that by its very nature is no aristocracy, but a humble, self-effacing brotherhood of people unaware of their own good ness. His kingdom is not a selection of the self-righteous, but a reunion of the lowly, sincere, penitent and heart hungry. A sinner, sorry for his sin. Is surer of a welcome with God than the proud and self-assertive Pharisee. This is the meaning of this parable, which Farrar calls, "A divine epitome of the wandering of man, and the love of God, such as no literature has ever equalled. Put in one scale all that Confucius or Sakya Mounl or Zoroas ter of Socrates ever wrote or said— and they wrote and said many beauti ful and holy words—and put In the other parable of the Prodigal Son and can any candid spirit doubt which scale would outweigh the other In eternal preciousness?" When Youth Plays the Fool The central figure of this story is a "green" youth; he was an unripe soul. He thought that "the old man" was "slow," that the home life was "dead" and that he "knew it all," which last was a sure proof of his immaturity. Nobody is so distrustful of his own Infallibility as the man of knowledge and wisdom. This youth was still in the veal period. He got his share of the family for tune and played the fool with it In "the far country," until it was gone and he was reduced to the lot pecu liarly loathsome to a Jew, that of a swineherd. At last, so hungry that he was minded to cat the very food of the swine, he "came to himself" and went home. This experience, bit ter and deep, made a man of him. True, it perpetually saddened his life, and left ineffacable scars and robbed him of the purity which is the sweet est fountain of joy; but this was the POSLAM SOAP BEST AID TO PERFECT SKIN ITS USE A DELIGHT Medication with Poslam, the great skin remedy, makes Poslam Soap more than a mere soap—a soap plus healing goodness, the soap for your use if you value your skin's health and appear ance .

The man who "sows wild oats" in youth will reap tares in his old age. "The bird with the broken pinion never soared as high again." Living with the pigs, the Prodigal Son learned what it is Lo be a man. He "came to himself"; he had been beside himself before. And when any man comes to himself he comeS to God. Getting One's True Measure It is the man without a dollar who realizes the hard times. After the Prodigal had spent all famine over took him in a hurry. This seemed a hardship, but it was the beginning of the youth's real prosperity. "He began to be in want," which was good for him, for it stripped him down to his real worth. Now came bis chance to prove himself; for the first time he was fairly on the scales. Prior to this he had been weighed along with his money hags and with his father's influence; now he would learn what he was really worth. The reve lation was not. very flattering, although it was well worth while. The hard test of circumstances proved the young man's market value to be only that of a swineherd. What a fall was there! This young ex quisite, this liberal giver of lavish feasts, only a swineherd! Still it is better for a man to know what he is really worth, however great the hard ship entailed, than to live comfort ably under an illusion. The best thing the world does for any one of us is to give us a. just estimate of our own powers. It would be the greatest fortune that could befall many a young fellow who goes speed ine about in his automobile to be brought into fair competition with the young machinist \frho helped make his toy. "Experience is a hard school, but fools will learn in no other way," runs the proverb. The prodigal had How t® Destroy the Dandruff Germ BY A SPECIALIST. That the dandruff germ is respon sible for nearly all the diseases to which the scalp is heir, as well as for baldness and premature gray hair, is a well known fact, but when we re alize that it is also indirectly respon sible for many of the worst cases of catarrh and consumption, we appreci ate the importance of any agent that will destroy its power. We are, there fore, particularly pleased to give here with the prescription which an emi nent scientist states he has found, after repeated tests, to completely de stroy the dandruff germ In from one to three applications. It will also almost Immediately stop falling hair and it has in numerous cases produced a new hair growth after years of baldness. This prescription can be made up at home, or any druggist will put it up for you: 6 ounces Bay Rum, 2 ounces Lavona de Composee, one-half drachm Menthol Crystals. Mix thoroughly, and after standing half an hour It is ready for use. Apply night and morning, rub bing Into the scalp with the finger-tips. If you wish it perfumed, add 1 drachm of your favorite perfume. While this preparation is not a dye It is unequal led for restoring gray hair to its origi nal color.

Absolute hunger came to be his lot and the memory of the many feasts he had shared and given did not lessen the pangs of his cravings, physical needs reduce all men to the one level. The hungry swineherd, once a pampered son of luxury, in the face of starva tion was no better than the lowest slave or peasant. He even would contend with the beats for the dry carob beans which were their food. The Morning After The climate of the "far country" has one dreadful characteristic. It is subject to terrible cold chills In the gray of its early mornings. At night its lights are bright and alluring, and the raiment of its people is gorgeous, and their manners gay. But in the morning to which every visitor and so journer inevitably awakens—ah, that Is tragedy and disillusionment and hoi ror! Lights are out and a thick, choking fog is over all. The gay laughter has i given way to groans. Tho festive com ! panionsliip is followed by a heart sick loneliness. The fight of the wan iderer's money from his purse has been followed by the disappearance of [everything that made "the far coun try" seem desirable —companions, flattery, excitement, festivity, rare foods and rich wines. Gone! Gone!! Gone!!! Nothing remains. The prince of the night before finds himself the beggar of the morning after, with not | even a beggar's comrades. Forsaken! j—that is the bitterest drop in the ! dregs of every prodigal's cup on that bleak and desolate morning after when he comes to himself. Hear the cry, as it resounds from the dc-a*h house at Sing Sing. Four "gunmen," who were representatives and types of the supposed solidar ity of the "gang," types of the loyalty of "the far country," ready to commit murder at tho behest of their crowd. But the "old fogies" of law and or der and decent society have caught up with them; they are to have the "out of date" morals of old-fashioned folk vindicated on themselves in the electric chair within a few hours. Their calloused bravado has remained unbroken hitherto. But now where are their friends? What is "the gang" doing for them? What is "the light that hisses and crackles from the chair of death they can see things with new clearness. So what have they to say. as a dying message? Only this: and it should be branded Into the brain of every foolish boy tempted to play prodigal: "Tell the boys that the synagogue was right. Everything has gone back on us ex cept the synagogue and our family. Keep away from the gang and bad companions. Mind what the home folks say. Stay by the synagogue, for it Is right." There you have in sum mary, the latest attestation of the old, old truth, which youth is so ready to disbelieve, that home and church are a boy's best friends. The boon companions of "the far country" fall away in tho hour of trial; but gamily and religion are loyal to the end. The Portrait of a Father The picture of this Father, who ia God, patiently waiting, day after day. week after week, month after month, year after year, is unspeakably touch ing. He knew the son would come back some day, even though it might not be until His garish world had cast him out. Ah, the homes that wait and watch; the windows where the light burns all the night through, and the doors that are never locked! They may have the comfort that God understands all about it, for He too is doing this. This father saw his son afar off, much watching had made his vision i keen. On the instant he was up and running, with no thought of stiff knees !or the burden of years; his eager [heart lent speed to his feet. Then he fell on his son's nock, breaking down I in a tumult of joy, and kissed him — I "kissed him again and again"—not 'giving the embarrassed and over j whelmed young man opportunity to utter his carefully prepared speech of I penitence. was forgiven; the hid eous past was over; a new day of hap piness had dawned for both. There is a place In Heaven for the forgiven; God takes back wanderers. He does not hold old scores, or nag about long-gone and once-forgotten offenses, as some earthly families do. He rejoices that he has back a soai. Transgressions are blotted out, all I things are made new. The whole I gospel is summed up in a "personal" [ that Is sometimes seen in the daily ! papers: "All forgiven. Come home."
