We cannot rig ou » hermitage for each one, orthat would be great deliver- ance. If they prepared their own dinners, it would not matter that they dropped in after every dish | had become cold. mons to themselves, and had no other | fiudience, it would not signfy that they begun consistently seven minu’‘es be- hind the published bour, It they were their own scholars, and taught them- selves, it would be of ne consequence if} the pupil sat waiting for his teacher for twenty minutes, As il is, we in this world cannot get away from the uno- punctual, nor get them away from us,| | therefore we are obliged to put up with them; but we should like them to know that they are a gross nuisance, and a frequent cause of sin, threugh _ ir- ritating the t« mpers oi those Who capn- not atfordito squander time as they do. If this sh uuld meet the eye of any gentleman who has almost forgotten the meaning of the word ‘punctuality,’ we carnestly advisehim to try and be henceforth tive minutes too for | every appointment, and then perhaps he will gradually subside into the little great virtue which we here recommend. | Could not some good genius get up a Punctuality Association, every member | wearing a chronometer, set to Green-| wick time, and to keep appointmen’s by | the minute hand?

How much of sioftul temper would be spared, and how much Of time saved, we cannot venture to guess Try it—C. H. Spurgeon. in “eo How He Was Cured. A faithta! and useful pastor in [lli-| nois, a few years ago was an infidel | lawyer in St. Louis.

It wasa bright afternoon | on the Lord’s day,and a street preacher | Was speaking of Jesus to an seamen crowd in one ofthe worst quarters of | the city. The curosity of the infidel | was excited, and he stopped for a| moment at the edge of the vast throng | to see what the gathering of so many | persons meant. Not a word the preacher uttered | heard; but near him, and| could be mounted on a wagygon, stood a man who | was pouriag fourth a volume of blias-| piemy and obscenety and hate, cursing | the Bible and Christ and Christianity. | The intidel noticed that he had quite a| group of sympathizers around-him, who! langhed at his coarse jests, and loudly | applauded his vile sentiments. But he| atsu noticed thatthe group was made| up the very scum of society. Thieves, burgla %, prostitutes, bloated | druakards, men and women and half | grown lads, upon whom the police kept | a watchful eve, constituted the admiring | audience of the foul wreteh who was! flooding them with his tide of fifth. —_| The lawyer after a while bowed his | head in utter shame,as he reflected that | he was thoroughly identified with this| spawn of hell. Itis truethat he was| an infidel on far other and higher | grounds, resting his scepticism upon | inteliectual and scientific objections to | the Bible; but he remembered that the | irguments and witticisms of his class of thinkers dribbled down through the! Various strata of the community, becom- | ing dirtier and more offensive at each | of successive descent,until they re-appear- | ed at the bottom in the disgusting shape | that faced him from the waggon of the | away | chagrined and mortified, and without | attending one of the revival meetings, | infidelity, and become a Christian, and | determided to devote ihe remainder of! infidel orator.
