Circumstances, and per haps impulse, prompt me in the nialter. Last Sabbath, together with my tfwo little girls, I took my T seat in one of the churches of this city. We were all dressed in calico, and I observed, after entering the house, that wo were the only per sons present whose wardrobes be i tokened hard times. “Truth is Stf anger than fieFon,” and in this 'instance/! tlnflk, that this old' ad dge was fidly Verified. Would yon boHevc that a professed follower Os would be templed to forsake the ‘comm union table of his Master ? fel-ange as it may appear, I hesita ted, at the invitation of our pastor, for all who wished to cometnm'orate the 1 death and sufferings of our cru cified Lord, to come forward to the frorit scats. Shall Igo forward and enjoy this blessed privilege given us by our Saviour, dressed in cali co, or shall I leave the church, or ?hall I«keep my seat? were ques ions which were presented to my mind. I pondered the subject for a moment, and-with a prayer to Al mighty God for forgiveness for hav in-g ever beUrt tempted to compro mise thO Ctcrhnl interest of my soul, I arose, took my seat with othcr.3, at the Lord’s table, and with sub dued feelings, and .a thankful heart, partook of the bread and \>ihe, sweet emblems of the sufferings, death, and undyin" love of our ado' able'Saviour. I returned from church, feeling more comfortable for having resisted and overcome the temptations of Satan. This little incident of Sabbath morning had been somewhat forgot ten, when I was forcibly reminded of it by my little jprls. They had been taunted by a little girl school mate, when' they next met, with the following : M Why did you wear calico to chlrreh Sunday ? It is ri diculous, I never did such a trick iu my life. ' I would not do such a thing!” The children did not ap pear Cos be at all hurt by such re marks, but merely mentioned the fad to me. • “• I had just received a note from an afflicted, distressed fellow-Urea tare. espressing his gratitude for , the offer of ft home wbiieh myself and husband had mad c him. liook the nolo, read it to them, and put tic ’ stfbjetit before them in this light-; Yoftr fatlrer and I have .proffered to this poor,' dependent lartli'ft home, wheneverhis- eircunx st’r.cba require it.

To do this as I Would wish,rvill require add'uofial expense; 11 eftve tbe mat ter with you. Do justas you please. If you say not do it, I will hot take him, but wid Reserve the money wh'ch pity might pi’ompt me to spend for bis convenience, and buy fine dresses for you. What shall I do?” With one voice they exclaimed, “ Never, never, mother, will I agree to do sack a mean thing. I would wear calico to the ‘biggest’ party in town, before I would let that poor man suffer.” This determined the matter, and we all "agreed that calico did very well to wear to church. • Tlie.pum and substance of the whole matter is. this; Is it fight for people to dress so fine when they go to church ? Is it not sinful ? Are not those who profess to walk in the footsteps of Jesus Christ, accounta bly in a great degree, for the loss of souls ? They drive a large class of the people from the house of God. - There are many persons who woo !d ,u.(tend chu’ ch regularly, but cavjoot afford .to dress according to llxo rimes ; .consequently they aro looked upon with scorn. They -are. made to feel dreadfully, (As I did for a while last Sabbath, when so many with a curious, bewildered gaze.). Think, for a moment, what might have been the result with my soul,, if God in His mercy, had not given me the strength to resist the im pulse of my nature? Suppose that I had left th# church, or had remain ed at my seat, when mvited to the table of the Lord, God. in his power might have overshadowed my soul with a spiritual ,which would lmve -cost mo. months, yes, years of bitternesaund tears.

If a man wishes! to get rid of dys pepsia be must give his stomach and brain less to do. N lt will be of no service to him to follow any par ti oolar regime—to live on chaff bread, or any ffuch* weigh his food, etc., so long as the brma is in a constant state of excitement. Let that have proper rest, and the stomach will perform its function,— Bat if he pass fourteen or fifteen hours a day in his office or cOunt ing-room, and take no exercise, hi* stomach will inevitably become paralized, and if he puts nothing' into it but-& cracker a day, it will not digest it. Irv many cases it is the brain that is the primary cause. Give that delicate organ some rest. Leave your business behind you when yon go to your home. Do. hdt Tsit' down ttf your dinner with ybur brows knit* and your mind absorbed in the easting op interest accounts. Never abridge the usu al hour of sleep. Take more 1 or less exercise in the open air every day. Allow yourself some innocent recreation. Eat moderately, slow ly ah cf of what you please—provided it bo not the shovel and tongs. If any particular dish disagrees with you, however, never touch it, or look at it. Do not imagine that you must Kve on rye bread nor oatmeal porridge ; a reasonable quantity of nutritious food is essential to the mind as well as to the body. Above all, banish all thoughts of the sub ject. If you have any treatises on dyspepsiaj domestic medicine, cte*, put them directly into the tire. If' jot are constantly . talking -and thinking about dyspepsia, you will surely have it. Endeavor to forget that you have a stomach.
