New System.

The Epworth Memorial Methodist
church in Cleveland has decided 70 try
n new system of church management
A business manager has been ap
pointed who will give his entire time

retary of the standing committees OF
the church and keep a record OF their

An Instance has been brought TO my

made net profit of 1885 per acre, or
little less than the selling price of his
