To become sickly Le down right foolishness; for it cuts
off every pleasure, and induces every 111. It is even
wicked, for it is consequent only on • violation of the
laws of our being, and all violations of law deserve
punishment. Mark this—it is • sin to be sick. The
physical laws of health are as much the laws of God,
written by His fingers on the very constitution of man, as
the Decalogue handed down by Medea In short. none bays
any right to he sick. It is the privilege and sacred duty of
one and all to be wetland to keep well;thatia, to observe
the health laws, and of parents to keep their children well.
Moreover, it should be understood and remembered that
an infant can

Wl:Stitt/A CHOI& -Lord Radstock preached In
the above piece of worship on Sunday evening. The
address was based upois passages of Scripture selected
from the Book of Ephasians. His lordship said
the Book of Ephisians was laddered to God's faithful
people who were at Ephesus. In the course of Lord
Radatook's remarks be said we were apt to look too
much to men of note to carry on the work of God, for.
getting that the poor of this world couldgain acmes to the
throne, and being the
e=te down. Many of the
poor of this world y sucomsful in winning
souls to Christ. His lordship epoke of a meeting of
sailors which be attended at Portsmouth. A sailor in
the coarse of the meeting read that sweet paeans—
" I shall be satisfied when I awake with Thy likeness."
Said he "A short time since I failed to understand the
true meaning of those words, but now I fully under-
stand • lam satisfied, my heart is full of joy." His
lordship went on to say: Religion would cause pesos
and joy to flow, for the promises of God were rare.
His lordship next addressed the unsaved. God's love
to sinful men was dweltn. Rich in mercy, and in
His great love He gave His Son to die for us. The
necessity of a full surrender to God, the simple plan
of salvation, striking cases of conversion, which had
come under his lordship's notice, and an earnest appeal
to sinners to come to Jesus, closed the address, which
was listened to with much earnestness and marked
attention by a crowded attendance. The hymn—
"Just as I am" was then rung, and many of the con-
gregation left. A great number, however, remained
behind to the prayer meeting.
