It prohibited treating, suppressed
bar -rooms. and only permitted sales
of liquor in shops by the pint and

Rev. Sam P. Jones.
We invite your attention to the
eighth verse of the fourth and last
chapter of St: Pauls to the Phillip.
fans. And there St. Paul gives tie
a -..clear, pliilosophioal, succinct idea
of whet the gospel is.
• We have been misled, perhaps
spore of tis, as to what Christianity
is; we have heard much on the
subject of the terms of discipleship ;
we have heard a great deal about
repentance for sine committed ; we
have read a'good deal about pardon
and heard a good deal ou that sub
jtet. We have heard a thousand
sermons, more or less, on the sub-
ject of faith, and many on the sub-
ject of regeneration and sanctifica-
tion, but Mere ,ie• a clear, sensible,
philosophidal:stetement as to what
Cbrietinn-sty is.
St. Paul begins this verso with
this word "finally ;" finally !
ally, bretbern," ae.mucb as to say :
""I have written many things prev-
ious to this. I have said many
things in your hearing, but, breth-
ren, you may forget all I bavo said
and take your eye off all I have
written; if yon will just fix your
mind and memory on what I am
going to say uow (for 1 .will now
give yon Ibe whole .stung in a net.
shell) ; you can get hold of this ; it ,
is brought to you clearly and plainly.
"Finally,; brethren, new, what.
aver you -may,• remember, whatever
you may have read from me, for-
; getting all, fix, your mind now on
what I am .going to say. Finally,
brethrei', I will enol it all up in a
word.
!'Finally, brethren, (whatsoever
things, are time, whatsoevor things
are honest, whatsoever tbinge aro
just, whatsoever things are pure,
whatsoever things are lovely, what-
soever thinge,are of good report ; if
there be any virtue, and if there bo
any praise, think -think 1 Una! ou
these things."
As a man. brink's, so he is. What
I, think toeday will determine what
f clay be doing, tomorrow, The
adieus of this day are the embodied
thoughts of yesterday. ..As man
'tbinbe, so he is. Let me' know what

the birds from building their nests

that he eau keep more sheep tkrough

than he can in the same aoreage

the sheep are mutually benefitted,
the fallen fruit fending the sheep and
the latter not only clearing the fruit
of worms, but greatly improving .it
by manuring the trees.
,Cows usually sell well at this sea-
son, and if a farmer has more than
he can keep in good feed all the
summer, it is much better to dispose
of ono or more of tho poorest, and
give extra feed anis oars to the re-
mainder. But it should always . be
