these little games, since they lead lo

president o f a j o c k e y clubf and invested
hirge sums of money in horses, which
he soon foundilobe very uncertainand
unproStable stock. But h e continued lo
deal in them! and to bet on the races
till he and his two oldest sons became
invelerategamblers, and very dissipaled< A t last the old man's property
was wasted away, ;md he died a miserable and wretched man. T h e oldest of the sons was SOKD UL'ier thrown
;from a horse, and killed; and his brother died in n drunkenfitimt long since.
Meanwhile the mother and sister,
and ihe youngest son bccame pious,—
professors of religion.
T h e reverses of fortune, and the calamities which befell the family, in the
death of the father and two brothers,
preyed upon the mind of the sister till
she became deranged, and she is now
confined in a lunatic asylum. T h e
youngest son studied for the ministry;
and now supports himself and mother
as well as he is able, out of the small
salary which his congregation allows
hi.m.
Thus, dear Charles, you see what
was, and is, the result of gaming. T h a t
gentleman was your father'sonly brother; and your aunt, now living with you,
is his wife, and the mother of the minister and his lunatic sister, who a r e
your cousins.
C.—Oh, Harry! I never knew of
this before; but 1 have often thought
the conduct of my aunt w^as very
strange. My parents would never let
me inquire about the cause of her sorrows and troubles. It has often made
m e feel sad to see her weep and look
so melancholy; but I can now know the
cause of her being so unhappy. I am
so sorry for her, and lament ih« fate of
my poor cousins and uncle, which I
am now convinced arose chiefly from
gaming. And here, H a r r y , take my
hand. You have indeed been my best
friend, in trying to save me from Sabbath-breaking, swearing.and gambling,
and all those vices which we have discussed; so that I promise you never to
commit anyof them again.
Hi—God bless you, Charles; and
may H e guide us both in seeking the
way of everlasting truth and life.

K e e p your room well ventilated.—
Close rooms generate disease.
Many
a constiluiion is underminded from
such confinement.
T h r o w off your feather beds and lie
upon straw, or even the floor, if you
have nothing better. T h e cheap coilon matrasses make a good bed and a
healthy one. Feathers are bad to lie
upon at any lime, and mote particularly in the summer season.
Use cold water freely. W a s h yourself thoroughly with it every morning.
A little salt put in the water, just enough logive it a briny tasie, will keep
the pores healthy, and strengthen and
invigorate the system.
Eat lightly, especially if your habits
are of a sedentary character. D o not
eat in a hurry, but masticate your food
well before it is deposited in the stomach. This bolting down provisions,
anacondalike, is most destructive to
the digestive organs. Avoid too great
an indulgence in "high living" as it is
called. Plain food is the best.
Let every man, woman and child,
keep a little pulverised charcoal in
their bed rooms, and on retiring at
night, let them put a s much of ii as
can be laid on a sixpence in their
mouths and work it about among the
teelh with the tongue; and it will not
be long before there will be no decayed teeth for the dentist to fill u p wiih
amalgam or pure gold either.
Rise
early in the morning, take exercise
enough to make your breakfast relish
well and you will feel fresh and vigorous for the d a y ' s labor. Upon rising
in the morning, extend your arms out
and force ihem back gently. This exercise will expand ihe chest, strengthen
the lungs, and operate a s a guard a gainst pulmonary diseases.
Observe these maxims, (and it will
cost you but little lo d o it,) and you
may look the ship fever, or almost any
other disease, in the face with composure; and you will find your doctor's
bill? at ihe end of ihe year, "lapered
off to the little end of nothing."
Referring lo the native assistants,
brother Shuck writes:—
Tong Seen Sai^.—This brother you

lo make himself understood. H e expresses anxiety to have a chapel in

I. Paul was a preacher of U

II. Paul took wages for hi

but his due for services rend

paid or stipulated for service
m . T h e churches, to w b
ces are rendered, are boui
this wages, and Paul begged
the Corinthians for "this w r o l
he had nol been burthensomel
thus making them inferior
churches. 2 Cor. 12:13.
IV. Paul received wages

From ihese facts connecte

draw these inferences:
1st. It is right for a chur
wages to a minister for preac

from a church for his preach
2nd. It is right for a chun
mise to pay wages lo a m
preaching, and righl f o r a i
serve under such a promise.
3rd. It is right lor a church
ise to pay a specified amount q
a preacher, as well as to a n j

NOTE.—Churches are gens
clear of hiring a carpenter

4lh. It is right for a numb«
chesto pay wages to a n
preach lo a remote and des
pie, "laking wages of them

Concluding reflection. If
find it in our hearts to do ihi
which are right, let us at leai
