ENCoURAGlNG.-lti is decidedly en-.
couraging to the cause of religion to
see the young men and women attend
the Sunday evening meetings in
such large numbers, even when the
temperature is discouraging. 1t is
also encouraging to the cause of mat
rimony, and makes the preacher
smile, as he observes the unanimity
with which the young fellows hang
around the door at the close of the
meetings, and offer their services as
escorts to the fairer portion of the
audiences. We are glad to note that
in the majority of cases the young
women manifest a timidity about 60
ing home alone that must be very
pleasant 10 the male worshippers.
