it was dead. The pastor-a young.
Jealous rnan-On the first day that he
faced the congregation, saw a body of
well-to-do. elegantly dressed, polite
people, who rose and knelt at the
proper time, and gave money when
the bag went around. Three years
later the same faces met him, and he
had not kindled in one of them a
CLEAN ofspiritual life. In the mean
time he had preached the terrors of
the law and the mercy of the gospel,
he had wrestled with God for them ;
he had carried them, dead weight,
on his heart.

God warm them to life ?"
"A little exercise might have that
effect" said the friend. But the

he meant.
