BUILDING A INSTRUMENTATION
building associations are In successful
operation in some of the Southern and
Western cities, under the control of able
men. In Sandusky, Ohio, one of these
societies has been formed with capital
of 100000, and another in Burlington,
Iowa, with basis Of $4,000. These or
CARNATIONS not only afford the working
man an opportunity to secure for HIM
willing to take stock simply as an In
vestment, they pay good profits. The
Wilmington Star says of them: If q
man occupy a dwelling worth $1,000,
and pay $500 per annum rent, in four
quarterly payments, he viii have paid,
in eight years, S2,4O0, and lost the inter-
est on these payments, amounting to
several hundred dollars more. He will
thus have paid out nearly $1,000; and,
at the expiration OF the eight years has
nothing as an equivalent. 1t is true, he
has had a roof to sleep under during the
eight years but why not build house
on the cooperative plan, and pay for 1T
just what he has been paying his land
lord as rent? There is vast difference
between paying SO q year, and at the
expiration of that time being the owner
of the building, (besides having had the
benefit of its occupancy, and paying the
same amount to the landlord without
having anything, at the expiration of the
time to show for it.Y-N. y. Tribune

Day by day,
With pure and simple wiles,
And winning words and smiles,
They creep into the heart,
And who would wish to say them nay.
They look up in our faces,
And their eyes
Are tender and are fair,
AS if still fingered there
The Saviour's kindly smilel
So very meek they look, and wise.

In their play;

ORIGIN OF THE TERM :" METHODIST

of Oxford University:
Here John and Charles Wcsley,whcn
students, organized the praying band,
and were SO methodieal in the use OF
time, studies and labor, that they were
called Methodists, in dcrision, by their
fellow students, and thus originated the

Christian denominations of the world. !,
