The WORK OF Two L1vRs.-A sculp.
tor, Franz LANCER. of Kaaden, spent
thirty years of his life in constructing
wooden model of Solomon's Temple, ac-
cordlng to the description given by Fla
vius Josephus. In 1850 he died, in his
seventy-second year, leaving his work
still incomplete. His son continued to
carry out the work. but he also died be-
lore the work was completely finished.
Two citizens of Kaaden undertook to
put the finishing touch to it, on which
they worked for two years more. They
asked permission of the Commissioners
OF the Vienna Industrial Exhibition to
e1niPlt the work there and have place
assigned for it, which permission was
granted. 1t requires space of 225 Gu
bic feet.

THE PR ESS.
Laughable Blunders of Writers and
Typos. H-

The amusement afforded by ludicrous typo |
graphical errors, will be inexhaustible while
printers are fallible and editors write with
abominabe indifference to legibility. One of
the most astonishing blunders was committed
some years ago in an editorial in the Phila-
delphia Bulletin. The writer, who had eau
toned his readers against ''casting their
pearls before swine, y was amazed and grieved
to perceive that the compositor had warned
the public against "carting their pills before
SUNRISE" This was corrected in the proof;
but the reporter who declared of certain
new store that it had ''sixty fancy windows"
was even more indignant than the store-keep-
er when he saw in his statement that the es-
Enlistment contained ''sixty faded wild
owsp And then there was the poet in
Muncy, who sought to soothe the wounded
feelings of bereaved family by publishing in
the local paper poetical tribute to the de-
ceased daughter, Emily, in which he declared
that ''we will hallow her grave with our
tears" He was pursued next morning by
Emily's exasperated brother, because the
printers insisted that ''we will harrow her
grave with our steers"
The poets suffer most deeply. Nothing
could be worse, for instance, than the misery
of the bard who asserted in his copy that he
s'kissed her under the. silent stars,'' only to
find that the compositor compelled him to
''l1ick her under the cellar stairs" A certain
Jenkins was the victim of an aggravated as
sault, because when, in his report of we'd
ding, he declared that ''the bride was accom-
panied to the altar by eight bridesmaids"
the types made it that ''the bride was
accompanied to the altar by tight
bridesmaids" These things are pecu-
liarly unpleasant when they occur in re-
marks upon death, as in the case of the edi-
tor, who, while writing a sympathetic para
graph, observed that .'Mr. Smith could hard
" bear the loss of his wife," only to find that
the printer had made it ssMr. Smith could
hardly bear such boss for wife,
Even more deplorable is the injury done to
the journalist who complimented a certain
"a noble old burgher, proudly loving his ma
tive State" Imagine the Indignation of the
candidate and the horror of the editor, when
the paper the next day contained the asser-
ton tqat the said burgher was "a nobby old
burglar, prowling around in a naked state.''
But the printers do not make all the mis-
takes We remember the laughter and com
ment proyoked by the statement of a nrovin-
cial reporter. who called the attention of the
constable to the fact that ION SUNDAY last
some twenty or thirty men collected in the
hollow back of Mr.. McGinnis. and engaged
in fighting during the whole morning ), Mr.
McGinnis' back must have been umc0mmonjv
large.
During the Franco-Prussian war a great
deal of fin-was poked at the, New Jersey editor
who read in the cable despatcbes that tsRaza-
inc has moved twenty Kilometres ont of
