(From recent pheennenhy the Rec. Unary Ward Beeeber:2
There areyeany men who try to perfortif thenutles • .
Of life as children read who are ill-taught at school,
giving,tite same accent to every word. The virtues •
of cleanliness and punctualiti are by , theta made
equal withlhe virttles ofjustice tail truth and levo -
-and this is/orte by lowering the higher virtues,
rather than b carrying up the little ones. •
There are Persons who: are more anions as •to
witether, they hall shire themselves on Sunday alai
whether they cut their neighbors' ilbroata , :on •
Monday ;- these are persons , who.are more , anxious
about the poliabing of their bans -on the Sahbith,
than they are Whetker they shall use them on Mon
day to put a Aber turtnut of thcit stores. :
To Anis. forth thd Impornuoce on4han, Christ took
a little child, th a t spark of being that is yet, to be,

and be ast into dreilea, than to harm one of these
little ones." Ind bas set the teal alid the estimate

without any heo would do as wen rut emit who nies
to separate his Uligious and- secular life. I alarm
that man is a unit. We _can blind it ship in cotapart

his whole life vibrates betweets the two. :Life is
