member, you may conscientiously carry out
whatever you believe to be Gods will exter-

you have no evidence of being the subject of

is yi' 'elded nothing is yielded. You may be
baptized and re- baptized, you may come to the
communion as often as you will, you may sit in
your pew, you may hear nay you may preach
and even give your body to be burned, but ii
your heart does not give itself to God, if you
love him not. If you feel no attachment to his
person, all that you have done is merely the
natural effect of excitement or tree will, and
not the work of grace; but when the heart
cleaves to God when the soul Is fixed upon him

There 10 nothing which people dread more than
pain, aud there s no pain more excrutistiug
than that of extracting tooth. Now this
pain can all be obviated by taking the Nitrous
Oxide or Laughing Gas, which is admitted by
all the Dental and Medical Journals to be the
best anesthetic for tooth drawing best, be-
cause enough can be given to produce entire
insensibility without danger; best, because it
is so pleasant to breathe, producing no sick
ness or disagreeable seneatisns, and leaving
the system entirely in two or three minutes !;
best, because it will succeed with patients on
whom chloroform and ether have been tried in
vain best, because the most delicate and ner-
vous and feeble persons can breathe it with
safety; because with many persons it renders
tooth drawing pleasure. DR.. VIM. D. Nolen

WILD OArs.-In all the wide range of ac-
cepted maxims, there is none, take it for ali
in all, more thoroughly abominable than that
one as 10 sowing wild oats. Look at it on
what side you will, and l will defy you to
make anything but DEVILS maxim of it, What
man-be he yonng, old, or middle aged
sows, that, and nothing else, shall ko reap.
The one only thing to do with wild oats ia to
put them carefully into the hottest part of the
lire and get them burnt to. dust, every seed
of them. If you SOW them, no matter in what
ground, up they will come, with long, tough
roots, like the couch grass, and luxuriant
stalks and lie aves, as sure as there is II sun IN
heaven,-a crop which makes one's heart
turn cold to think Of The devil, too, whose
special crop they are will see that they thrive
and you and nobody else will have to reap them
and no common reaping will get them out of
the soil, which must be dug down deep again
and again. Well for you if, with all your
care, you can make the ground sweet again by
your dying dsy.-lDr. Arnold.
