This obviously would be to tunny an easy mode oi providing for *hs,t is now often full lo be. a difficult and nuxioDß fhargc. 4th. Provision for pluoiug boys ns np. prentices and articled clerks to solicitors, ungii.ct.Tß, &c, or for the Completion of chtldteii's education, can be obtained in a gitnilar way. olh. Benevolent institutions und religious soeio'ifs enn procure fui ds for the erection ol churches, schools, par. Boi-.ages, Ac, nud (or the immediate pu)ing ofi'of debts, and the amount borrowed can subsequently be repaid by charitable contributions periodically collected. In many cases the amount of repay meut would be little in excess of the rent ot the house purchased. Take, fur example, a mem* ber being iii possession of n section of lutul and wiahing to borrow £300 on the 12 years' term to assist him in tha building of a houße worth that sum, for the equivalent of which he had been pieviously 15s. a week rent, or £3Ut» year. Ho would hnve paid iv runt in 12 years £4GB, wherms by borrowing tho money from this society for twelve years he would puy £44 17». n yrar, or £538 4r. or only 2b. 3d. per week more than ho paid us runt, or £70 4c over nnd above whnl he would have pnid his landlord had ho remained a tenant for 12 vents, whereas the housu would become his o« v, rent (rue, at the expiration of the term. Had he not become a member of the Society he would have paid £4CB bb rent, and tho properly woold Btiil belong lo his lundlord. Again, lake for example a person borrowing £300 for twoUe years, as above stated, ho would have repaid in that limo £538 4*. Had ho borrowed in the ordinary nay at 10 per cent per annum, the rorult would be — Money borrowed £300 0 0 1 12 years interest. | at 10 per cent £3GO 0 0 1 ' £CCO 0 0 !
