That' was a good sermon and one

interested in their religious wel¬
fare- to attend services more
punctually, and did not think it
an evidence of a good and healthy
religious tone. We quite agree
with the pastor, and though our
own imperfection may make us
see blindly, yet we think there is
too little difference between
church members and non profess¬
ing people.
