Repentance Pays No DeLts.-A lady being
visited with vinlent disorder, was under the
necessity of calling medical assistance. Her
physician was very latitudiuayiau in his notions,
and endeavored to persuade his patient to ad-
opt his creed as well as take his medicine. He
insisted with much dogmatism that repentance
and reformation were all that either God or
man could justly demand, and denied the fact
or necessity of an atonement by the suferings
of the Son of God The lady had not SO
learned Christ she adopted his prescriptions,
but rejected his creed. On her recovery she
invited the doctor 10 tea, aud requested him
to make out his bill. The tea-table being re-
moved, she observed, "My long illness las
occasioned You many journeys, aud suppose
you have procured my medicines at considera-
bic expense" The doctor replied that good
drugs were expensive" Upon this she OBJ
served, al sm extremely sorry that have put
You to much trouble and expense, and also
promise that on any future Illness will never
trouble you again. So you see both repent
and reform, and that is all you require" The
, doctor shrugged his shoulders, and remarked
"That will,not do mev' The words of the wise
