REAsoS.-There is said TO be some reason
in everything, but the reason why people
save money by purchasing ready made

ScnIsxs. .-Schismatic eruptions in church
es generally prove disastrous. During the
past ten years that we have lived in this
city, we have noticed three church disagree
ments--where brother couldn't agree with
BROTHER concerning matters pertaining te
spiritual or secular affairs connected with
their church, and separation ensued. This
resulted in the building Of three new church
edifices, which was good thing for thu
mechanics, no doubt. We have also to re.
cord that not one Of the three new organiza
tions that thus sprung up were prosperous
They rushed into debts which they were
unable to pay, and the struggling on for
lfew years had to succumb to force Of ad
verse circumstances. One Of these church
buildings has for some time been remoddlet
into dwellings, another has been bought b.
the Presbyterians, in order to get NOR
commodious building, and the third ha
passed into the hands Of the city, to be re
nodded into school house.
