No need to slieil crocodile (cars over ihc roniaiiis of soonndi'els vho did not hesitate to take life while i'Ct they were in ihe flesh. TIfl': SAItn.iTH ItA 1. f. *riiere seems to he a diversity of ^liiiioii anidiig Christian prople as to l\u' keepin;,' holy of tiie Sabbath day. TliiB is not to he wondered at. Peo- pie interpret scripture differently in couiicction with olhrr Ihiiifjs, aud it Bt nut at all siirpribin;; tliat they should alwj differ in this respect. Some very ^'ood people believe in a rigid observance of the Sabbath ac- cordiuK to certain rules laid down by men who floiirishcd hundreds of yeani ajjo, aud who interpreted certain .pas- sages ill the Bible touchin;{ this point with Uiu aid iif a vory dim iiilallealuul h(,'ht. And yet, while ritjidly observ- ing certain rules, iit the same time very inconsistently and absurdly vio- lating (iod'H laws ill other particulars. For oxani])le, the threat Scotti.sh di- vine, llcv. Norman Macleod, tells uii Uiniisiiig instance of the piciiliur in- eonsisteiicy of this clads of "rigid" observers of the Sahhath day. Uite <liiy, in walking towards a small coun- try chaiMil, ill which he was to pieach <hat morning, he observed a lady bt'iidiu)^ her step.-i in the same direc- tion, and carrying a small lap-dog in her arms. IminediHtely behind her walkeil a man with luiHteudy steps, who hud only a few muiiieiils licfoH: <'merned from an inn close by. The man was palpably under the infliieiii'i,' of liipior. Siulch illy the dog leaped tiom the lady's arms and ran ofl in an opiHisitc direction. The lady po- litely ftski^d the tij)Hy man to whialle for her dog. That worthy looked at l.ir ill cviduiit aniai;einent for u mo- ment, then steadying himself with an tlfort, replied in very severe tones : â€" *'Meiu dye ne ken this islJK! .Sawhatli day !" Ho it is with many p<'ople. While tlu'y are vco'V senipidiHia and liair-.spliiliiig in luutlers of little or no ini|iortance, they are equally lax in things of inlhiitely greater niomenl. Another class of people, while faith- fully perfurniing their duties, in uo I'm- as attending divine woisliip and other services connected with (ho chun'h »fe concerned, do not hesitate to crii- ^eisu their iiii;4)ihors hai.shly, and pitr- haps most iiiijustly, as sunn as they are l>eyoiid U^ sound of tiic preaelier's voice. Indeed, Huinelii^iea tlio good jireaclier hiins(df wnnes in for a share of this idle, and,, in m*ny eM4!8, mal- icioiii gossii). This love ott4* gossip Mcema to b() au inhoiout \v'C4knie8fi of the bam*D family. The disease, ntor. ally spoftkii)& â- '* coivtu,g;ioiis, and some of the very bent jirople have been l^iiown Vp.K>v« way ta it. in dkhiu ntH ^ forgetliiijj,''HH. Kver; aiali mkI woman living has some weak point in his or her character â€" ample food in every life for the satire of the social vampires which abound in every com- munity. But let critics be just in their criticisms, and while expfbsing the faults of their fellow-inen, let them not forget the good to be found there too. Yes, and in tens of tl^ousands of instances it wiil be found tiiat the good far outweighs the bud. \t the same time â€" ^ "O wKil tUu powor noino Kittle gle ua, To Htiu oui-Nulit a.t itiiert k' u us, It wad fraf uiaiiy a iilutider (rue uh .\u footUh uotiun I" So sang the immortal iiurns, who, with all lii.s lault.s, has given to the world many beautifid and iuspirmg thoughts, wrapped up in simple but expressive verse. There are many other classes of Sabhath observers. Mr. A. is of opin- ion that a little ride out into the coun- try with his wife and httle ones â€" who have been "penned up" in the hot city all the week â€" would not he coii- tiary to a scriptiinil observance of holy day. God make the trees to grow and the tlowei-s tn bloom. Sure- ly he ^an study tline work.s of His hands by a drive or ii stroll out into the rural district, where the uir is pure and scented with the sweet per- fuiii"' of llowors, or newly mown clover it may be. He cannot afford to take holidays and go to the seashore or to iioine pleasant country town â€" sucli as Flesherlon, for intsancc. Oh, no! he eiiii sintrc neith(>r the time nor the means for that. It is only some high salaried layman, minister, doctor, lawyer, or editor wiio can aiToid such luxuries as lluit. Mr, li. is horrified, "(ladding about the country" on Sun- day is simply a detestable practice and wrong in the siglil of tlie Lord. Vis- iting fiicnds is ei|nally bad. Nothing, except what is altoluldy necessary, should lie dom; on the Lord's day. Hut Mr. J5. doesn't tliiiik it wrong for hiH wife to stay home from church Sunday morning.-^ and cook a good hot dinner for her liege lord ! Mr. ('. thinds all is vanity and vexation of spirit. No cooking on Sundays in Mr. (-'s house. i''.vcrybody moves around the hou.sc like a funeral pro- cession, Mr. C's face is two inches longer than ordinary and woe bolide the unfortunate son whose exuberance of boyish spirits tempts him to give vent to a whistle. No bootk blacked. No bangs ciiihd with pipe stem.: arounil his domicile. Nu shaving .Nobody suiilrs â€" at least they iloii't when Mr. C. is around. Mr. C. niar- tials his family ofl' to cliuicli after the manner of a policeman in charge of a gang nf desperate young culprits. His spinal eoliiinii is as utitT as a poker, while his features preserve a grim ligidness suggestive of cast iron or marble, .\fter pinner every member of the family reads his or her bible siill in charge of the pcdiceman ! In after years Mi. C. is astonished to find, that with all Ins (•(//vyu/ religious training, his smi.'; ari' far fnmi liecoining eiliier distinguished theologians or useful jucmberH of the clinroh of his choice. However, it is to be hoped the theological freezing they got in youth will bo pnsceptible to rays of true religious wiirmtli in later life. IC very man has a con.solo)ico. (ioil implanted that )irinei|)le within man for wise puriioses. Wlieii an individ- ual does wrong, or oven thinks wrong, conscience immediately makes him cognixaul of tin^ fact. Call conscience what you will, "the soul," or "the inner man," that man or that woman who obeys its voice will not make many iif any'.') hluuders, cither in keeping holy the Sahhath day, or in the more commonplace things apper- taining to this life. That tlio SiAhbalh aliaidd be sacred- ly observed as a day (\evoted to the sevice of the Iiord, few. but skeptics, will deny ; but just hom it should be observed so as to fulfil our L ord's oommaiid, is a question not so easily anflwercd.
