But this' brings nie to anawer the
first objection which can be made to a
free church, and that is, that it cannot
be finaneially supported. You say
that there is a greet deal of expensive
machinery in the church; there is the
coal bill, and. the gas bill, and an in-
surance hill, and the expenses of sex-
- ton, and music, and. minister, and, as
free ehtirches ought to be conducted on
a large and generous scale, there will
be extraordinary: expenses. Ay, we
admit all this In a free church the

., While character, every hymn storming
the very: gates of heaven, The chittch
architeeture ought to be plaid butim-
posing, the people seated face to face

but if you take that plain bread to
men who for forty-eight holies have
had nothing to eat, hove they wilt
death fo it! Now I simply say that
vast ajority of the people who
have been attending our Christian
church', have been stuffed for these
twenty years with the confections of
religion,. and when we present them
" with the plain bread of the Gospel,
they do., not want He bee if we should
