THE BIBLE.
\
Much Popular Misinformation About
the Scriptures. *
The notion loose! v float in? about ;
the churches is that the Hi bio came "
down from heaven, cleanly printed, ,
nicely bound in morocco and pilt j
edped, with a bookmarker apainst j
that text which has been erroneous- '
ly made to declare that every Scripture
is inspired of God. This heaven
sent volume is incapable of error
' , in the minutest detail, livery sen- ;
tence, every word and letter and
(punctuation mark is infallibly guaranteed
by the Ilolv Ghost! Nobody,
tn ?.tkp knowledge of >the nresent
'U *er, has ever said that he holds .e
that theory of inspiration,
if the popular idea of the Bible
.'ere analyzed it would warrant the ,
aference. And this infallibility is 1
n practice claimed for the Bible
5 printed in the English tongue
/ .nd read in our churches! Vet all
world knows, or should know, n
.nat the revised version udiich we ; 1
now posses i> based on the author- ij
ized version, whic h is an improved i,
i . edition of the hi--hops' Bilde, which L
was a bad copy of Cranmer's Bible, *
which was based on Covordale's (
translations of Dutch ?ind Latin t
translations and Rogers' version of (
Tindall's Bible! And if we expect i
to fmd rigidly accurate messages
from the verv mind of (Jod, convey- "
ed in a version of a version which '
is a translation of a translation, we t
are demanding the most miraculous j
of all conceivable miracles. ,
Popular misinformation about .
,he Bible seems to begin with the
purchase of a copy in a bookstore. 1
Tet the adventures of the Bible <.
documents before the dar of the ;
printing press constitute one of the ' j
romances of history. The earliest i
Hebrew copy of the OKI Testament j1
of undisputed date goes back only '
to^ihe tenth century A. I>. For a jl
period, therefore, of not less than | \
1,200 years and perhaps of 2,000 j t
copy had been succeeding copy, gen- 1
cration following generation in the '
world of books even as in the hu- \ (
man race. Twenty centuries of ! i
"editions" had gone the way of all f
I papyri, even as twenty centuries of
human beings bad gone the way of
all flesh, and this parchment was
heir of all those ages in the fore
' most files of?books. Had no copy- J
ist made one mistake in the course j ]
of twice a thousand years ? As com- k
pensation for the late date of our 1'
Hebrew authorities can be set, H is !
true, the scrupulous fidelity with !
which the Hebrew amanuensis did 1!
Jiis work, his reverence for the let- j1
^(I'ter of the document on which he !
Vas engaged and the consequent i
comparative purity and reliability j
of the text.?Dr. Charles F. Aked iv
in Appleton's.
"??
Division of Labor.
Sam, a negro of the good old
" fashioned sort,was strutting through
the village street as proud as any
peacock.
"Hello, Sam!" said a man who
had occasionally given him an odd
job. "I hear you've takyn a partner
for life?" i
"Yes, sah. Married yesterday." ]
"Now, Sam, I hope you believe in *
an equal division of labor and will ]
^r.ot expect your partner to do all (
vhe work." j i
"No, sah?no, indeed, sail! I does ;?
believe we bofe should do our share, i
Wife's gwine to d' washing sail, and |
I'm gwine t' be do treasurer."
The Actor's Retort. j
Not loni^ ago a New York theat- ,
rical manager came in unexpectedly
upon the rehearsal of one of his (
shows and didn't like the way one
of the comedians was delivering his ; i
lines. The man, who had never met .
the manager, was slow, lackadaisical
in manner and lacked spirit. ^
"Here, here, this won't do at all," |
said the manager, striding down the ,
aiole toward the stage. ".More steam i

"Gee/' said the m?n, gazing down j
on the manager. ''Steam? You don't
want an actor?you want a <

HE Santley on Singing.
It is a generally received idea
that a singer's life is a merry one? 1
little to do, storms of applause, top- t
ped up with sacks of gold and amuse- 1
ment without end. My experience 1
does not confirm that idea in the I
least. No gold nor amusement could i
repay the toil, worry and disappoint- r
ment of a singer's life as I know it. *

A WARNING FOR MILLINERS.
ielurabia Merchant Fined for Violating
Game Law.
Columbia, October 22:?Mr A
j Douglas, president of the A G
Douglas Company, which conducts
i fashionable dry goods and millinery
;stablishment in Columbia, was tin;
?2 to-day by Magistrate Fowles oi
:harge of violating the game laws'
;he State. The warrant was sworn
>ut by Secretary Rice, of the Audu)on
Society, under >ne Act of 1905,
md states that Mr Douglas has in
lis jKissession and offers for sale the
fathers of a noti-gatne bird, which
s a violation of the statute. The
fathers in question are those <-f a
leron on a stylish hat in the Dougias
vindow, and theie are lots of others
>f the same kind in the stock, which
Mr Douglas will have to dispose of
ii some legal way. >v nen tee case
ivas called in the magistrate's court
le entered a plea of guilty and paid
lis tine. If the Audubon Society
indertakes to enforce the law
hronghout the State it is likely that
i good many stocks of millinery in
itiier towns than Columbia, will be
iepleted of some of th<-ir choicest
tall offerings.
