Hpjftr . sv{*' What Others Say. Dr. Spalding, in the Neiv York Ewingeliat, draws a striking picture of Old New England worship when everybody went to church, but babies and the sick, and the present elegant worship with full two thirds of the pews vacant. He asks with point and force: What have we gained by all this strenuous effort, and this unlimited expenditure to make religion attractive? Have kitchen and parlor, have the high niceties of worship appealing rt the npathpfin. tflstes. aficomDlished that success which is held forth as the justification and the very necessity for ail this thing ? Under all the "attractions" of religion, and the infinitely ingenious methods devised for coaxing the "unchurched masses" to the house of God, have we succeeded ? Does this religion of the day, so courteous, so beguiling, so sugar ooated throughout, does it "draw ?" Does it fill the pews ? Even if I have got an outsider in, haye I got him by such a motive and appeal where I can long keep him in; or if I keep him in, is it possible to bring him o:a under such influences into the great solemnities of religion ? Are we not, even in this poor success, simply training men and women and children to think that they are doing the church a favor by attending it, ana even uoa a ravor m consenting 10 < worship Hita? One of the positive barriers to welldoing in the world, is the habit of sparing that which ought to be destroyed. One of the positive means of good, and so of grace, in the world, is the wise destruction of that which ought to be destroyed. Many a housekeeper suffers for the lack of room in garret and cellar, and in closet and drawer, which could be supplied by the destruction of the worthless things that have been unwisely spared through this morbid shrinking from the work of wise destroying. Many a business man, or professional man, is unable to find valuable papers when he needs them, or to know what papers before him call for immediate attention, because of the " . burdensome accumulation of papers upon .his desk, or in his pigeon-holes, which ought to have been destroyed. Maqy a garden or grove is lacking in betuity because of the lack of the destructive element in him who spares stalks and branches tbat are not worthy of saving. And many a path of duty is barred by obstacles that have been spared when they should have been destroyed. What is Worship??It is daily more and more evident that the duty of public worship is falling out of view. People have come to think that unless they "enjoy" the service of the sanctuary, it is useless to go there; and instead of seeking the cause of their lack of "enjoyment" in their own plentiful lack of a spirit of worship, they $re prone to assume tbat the service or the sermon is at fault. Hence, it is that sums of money out of all proportion to the means of a congregation are lavishly spent for music or other ornament, not to please God, but to minister enjoyment to undevout and undutiful people. For a like cause the sermon, whatever else it is, must be "entertaining," because, unless it is so, nobody can be expected to listen to it. It must be confessed that preachers submit to this demand with altogether too much facility, and the consequence is that many sermons, if they are entertaining, are, at least, not edifying. The preacher whose first object is to please his Master's servants disobeys his Master and their's, and by casting talents and opportunities, v at once disserves and displeases Him.
