at religious worship, dropping in at church,
n'e, Ten, or fifteen minutes after the public
ae'otions have commenced. Conscience
has become quite blunted in its renon.
strances, and the example set by those who
should be modles, is readily Initiated by a
crowd Of careless ones. Tardiucss in atten
dance on public and social worship is one of
the comlnonest sins OF the day, but no less
a sin on account of its universally. We
would like, for the mere novelty of the thing.

thorough reform.
