BIBLE TRANSLATION.
The Work is One Requiring Great Train-
ing and Infinite Care.
To any person who gives the matter
the least thought, it must seem nothing
short of uliraouious that so magnificent
a piece of literature as the Christian Bi-
ble could ever be translated into the
spoken tongue of savages who possess
no written language at all, and in thou-
sands of eases have no equivalents for
important words of the Bible. Well do I
remember Dr. Haven pointing out to me,
at the Bible Society headquarters, that
the phrase "Lamb of God" was found
a very serious robstaole in turning the
New Testament into Eskimo, for that
people did not know what sheep were,
had never seen any, and could not con-
ceive of them. Therefore the phrase
was rendered "The Little Seal of God."
l.aturallz, then, this question of
translating the Bible calls for labor
which can fairly be called heroic. A
translator must devote his life to the
work, as did Bishop Seheresehewsky.
This remarkable Bible scholar, •although
well-nigh helpless physieally through in-
curable paralysis, for over fourteen years
"pounded" on the typewriter with the
solitary forefinger whose use he retain-
ed, preparing every word. of both Testa-
ments for his monumental translation in-
to the Easy Wen Li dialect of Chinese,
thus making our Bible accessible to
®cores of millions of people who speak
that tongue. Wi11 it be believed that
Bishop Selaereskewsky eat in the very
same chair for nearly twenty years,
working with amazing persistence, and
requiring two secretaries to keep pace
with him? And yet this noble old man,
a, the time of his death a few weeks
ago, was planning twelve years' addi-
tional work.—William George Fitz -Ger-
ald, in the March Circle. -

King Edward's Kitchen.
It is doubtful if there is another cook
in the world whose skill in culinary arts
is equal to that of M. 14Ieuager, who
rules the kitchen at 13ue.kinghaan Palace.
For his service as King Edward's euisin-
ier, M. M•enager, it is said, receives a
.salary ci :::2.000 per annum, his duties
lasting about two hours each day, if the
time occupied In passing the luncheon
menu, drawn up by the master of His
Ma) esty's household is excepted.
Toward 6 o'clock M. Menager directs
his steps toward the kitchen, where there
are saucepans and culinary utensils,
'which have cot not less than £10,000.
'There are 4,000 knives, 3,000 forks and
2,000 spoons solely employed in the pre-
•paration of the dishes, while the equip-
ment of the kitchen provides for 8,000
covers being laid.—Tit-Bits.

Astor's Statistics.
A reporter is said to have once asked
John Jacob Astor if it were' true that
he had twenty-seven automobiles, five'
chauffeurs, thirty-three horses and forty
eight carriages. Mr. Astor interrupted:"
"Statistics are always dry, stupid and
even irritating. Let me tell ;you a story
of a temperance exhorter who while in
the suburbs found a man lying full length
on the path wit hflushed face and tout -
led lair. He touched him with his foot
to arouse him and said in a voice full. of
gentle reproach: "My friend., did you
ever pause to consider that if you had
placed the price of one glass of whiskey
out at compound interest at the tiane
of the visit of the Queen of Sheba to
Solomon you would) now have $7,816,-
472?" The red-faced man lifted his head,
brushed the place where the other's foot
had touched him and replied: "No, I
haven't worked that out, but I'm some-
thing of a statistician myself and if you
don't go back 119 feet in seven seconds,
I'll hit you forty-three times and make
you see 7.598 stars, for I've just had six
teeth pulled for $8—that's $1.33 a tooth
—and. I tell you, you old meddler, I'm
in no mood for fooling.'"

A QUAINT AND PICTURESQUE
DUTCH FISHING VILLAGE.
Saturday horning, sometimes before
the dawn, the first sails of the fishing
fleet creep over the northern horizon and
slip down, like homing pigeons, until by
noonday a double or triple ring of heavy,
brown bows narrows it into a tiny pool.
Round and about them there is iirucli
corning and going of hurrying feet,
much bustle and scurry as they are
cleaned, overhauled and re -stocked for
the next week's cruise. Around the nar-
row stone dike, which locks the har-
bor to the great wall of basaltic blocks
that checks the Zuyder Zee, and on the
walls of plank and piling which fringe
its inner curve, the ..all, grave Volendam
fishermen and their families come and go
on unceasing errands. The adults pay
little attention to photographer or cam-
era—curiosity is not their weakness and
they are very busy—but the smallest
children have already learned the mean-
ing of those queer black boxes and the
rain of coppers that the hurried kodaker
leaves in his wake, so they follow you
persistently along the dike, at every
pause shriking what they consider an
efective pose and pleading fotogra-
phiren. Until very recently Volendarh
enjoyed a reputation for dignity and.
freedom from all begging or importunity
of travellers, but the daily trail of tour-
ists and the example of the money -mak-
ing Markeners has demoralized the
younger element and the children are
sometimes most annoying. They have
learned also a few English—or should
we say, American?—words. One stall
boy greeted us with a cheerful "Yankee
Doodle! Skidoo!" and more than a few
after planting themselves in a fetching
(1) attitude direetyl in front of the
camera, said inuiringly "Smoke?"—not
to discover your habits but to sound the
prospects of exchanging a pose for a
cigar.—From "Vol'endam, the Artists'
Village,' by Florence Craig Albreeht, in

'AMAZING CASE OF APHASIA.
Shrewd " Business Ma- in Deprived of
Speech for Seven Years.
Discussing aphasia at the Academy of
Medicine, Dr, William H. Thompson told
a storyof mental acumen following loss
of speech which greatly interested his
hearers, and which was. acknowledged to
be one of the most remarkable cases of
its kind on record.
"A man well known in business," said
Dr. Thompson, "came to my office one
day accompanied by his son and lawyer
and asked that 1 examine him mentally
to determine whether he was competent
to make a will. I was informed that
seven years before he -had lost his speech
and since then had been unable to utter
a 'word. He was literally word blind,
He could not tell when printing was up-
side down. Ile explained that he had
considerable property he wished to dis-
pose of, and that as he, expected his will
would be contested, he, wanted a state-
ment from me.
`'t examined him thoroughly, found he
was mentally acute and in every way re-
sponsible. In fact, my inquiry developed
the remarkable fact that, while he was
word blind, he had developed a •remark-
able arithmetical knowledge. Ile was an

A World -Wide Signal.
An interesting proposal is made to the
effect that a world-wide signal should be
sent round the British Empire at a giv-
en hour each day by gun Are, to bo
known as "The King's gun signal." It
is suggested (writes a Loudon corres-
pondent) as a beginning to the new
scheme that a gun should be fired sim-
ultaneously at Malta, Calcutta, Hong
Kong, Melbourne, Cape Town, and Ot-
tawa. Other guns could be added as ex-
prience is gained and the sentimental
idea underlying the proposal is that
when the gun is fired. British subjects
all over the world could say that "all's
well," and that they are thinking of
each other, no matter how remote they
may be from each other.

Pauperizing Charity.
(Chicago Chronicle.)
C. S. Kingsley in an address before the
Social Science club o. few days ago com-
mented on the fact that needy people were
Pauperized by publi ceharities much more
than by the charities of private persons or
organizations,
This must bo true, and for obvious rea-
eons. Public charity is mechanical, im-
personal and heartless, while private charity
involves an interplay of sentiment and feel-
ing which is apt to be elevating and im-
proving both to him who gives and to him
who receives. A man who gets assistance
from the county agent et his case care no-
thing for him. Tho charity he reeeivos costa
nobody any self-saorifiee and is accompanied
with no kindly interest. He even has a feel-
ing that he has a legal right to all he gets.
It is easy to see that the habit r" shame-
less dependence and then of frauealent de-
pendence is much easier to form in this
ease than where the dependent meets his
benefactor face to face and realizes that
all he gets cost somebody else exactly that
much self-denial and that It would never
be given unless there were in somebody's
heart a feeling of pity and brotherly kind -
nese.
