—Something new under the rim It
seems the religious feeling of our com
munity is dividing itself into grades.
There aro aristocratic prayer-meetings ,
prayer-meetings for the middle class;
meetings of prayer for the poor, and
still another grade of supplication for
the rabble—the canaille. So nice has
the discrimination of the religious COM•
munity of at least one of our churches
become, that all these different meetings
are attended only by those people who
belong to the grade. We presume this
arrangement is on the principle that
"in My Father's house are many man
