81 NDERS or PRINTERS.

Editions of the Bible have become
famous. and exceedingly valuable on ac-
count of particular blunders, many ex-
amples being too familiar to require
mention. The seventh commandment
has been blundered about, as well as
violated, in all ages. Early in the his
tory of printing, the Company of Sta
TONER'S" having the royal license for
printing the Bible in England, put
forth an edition emitting the word not
in the seventh commandment A GER
tain proof-reader OF the American Bible
Society let an edition go to press With
the expression, 1.-The desolate hath
many more children than she which
hath a humdred," instead of "hath a
huSband." Public speakers are often
mortified by the plumbers of reporters
and printers. DR.. Bethune said
"While men slept the devil Sowed
tarCs," and Il of the papers reported
him as having said SaaCcd trees. DIR.
Giidersieeve wrote of the burial of a
beloved youth, "Discorsoiate friends
stood riveted to the spot ;" but his own
printers, by taking n letter cat of one
word and putting it into another, made
him say: "Discousolate .feads stood
riveted to the sport" A writer at
tempted to say: american preachers
Fay much attention to manner and
British preachers pay very little;' but
the types made him say: "British
preachers pray very little"

4 GHOSTnI RIDER.

Ia the rural districts of Pennsylvania
the peddler is not deemed the nuisance
he is in the city, where small merchants
Of every class weary the door-bell, but
is treated as a man and a brother. His
wares are looked upon as desirable, and
his company is frequently not less ap-
preciated. 1t was this feeling Of hos
pitaIiiy toward peddiers which recently
put Mr.. E.sheltaun, of Albanytownship,
in 4 condition of bewilderment. \
travelling peadler called at The house Of
Mr.. Eoheltaub, his goods were exam
ined, praised, and some of them pur-
chased, ana then the peddler was invi-
ted 20 remain al night. The reddIer
stayed, and was assigned TO a bed III
the garnet. The family retired Is usual,
and nothing remarkable occurred until
about midnight, when the farmer was
awakened by a terrible commotion in
the paddock. The dogs were yelping
and barking, and there was a constant
sound as of the beating Of horses feet
upon the ground. Mr.. Esheltaub and
his hired man arose and went to the
room Of the pcdiier, but found there
only the mans pack and clothes and al
open window. Then they went forth to
find, the u of the mysterious sounds
outside aud were aston;sned. Ia the
paddock 4 horse was rushing wildly up
and down, pursued by the dogs, and
upon tue horses back was the phantom
rider! CLAD all in white, perfectly i'm
movable, with pallid face. and seated
upon TIE crazed horse was a
which, 10 the two men who were
iookers-ou, seemed anything but hu-
man. Finally, the hired man got his
courage Up 10 the sticking point, and
waylaying the flying steed, seized the
swinging bride as the horse ard rider
dashed by. Then came 4 revelation.
The mysterious rider was found to be
the peddler, clothed in shirt and draw
ers, and i'll a complete state of somnam-
bulism. Cold as was the weather, ne
was III a violent perspiration, and when,
with difficulty awakened, found
himself tolerably comfortable. Mr..
doesn't want 20 entertain any
more peddlers. He is permanently
down on this Godiva business, since his
horse has got the heaves.

Two Glasses OF Boys.

4 young man was engaged in q very
profitable situation IL one of our lar@
cities, and was highly valued by all who
were associated With him. No cOnsi2-
Grafton would have induced his en-
ployers willingly 10 part with him, yet
there were fully 100 young men in the
town who would have been happy TO
step into his shoes. The salary was
high FIR such youth, and it was also
in the line of promotion. Many had
applied for it who had rich fathers to
second their suits. Charles father was

Charl%s started out to make his for

eyes. His leisure time was not spent
in cracking his knuckles IN the BOW 50
greatly abused game OF base ball, but
in pertecting his writing and arithmetic.
Then he learned TO telegraph, and
at every successive step his perfect &C
curacy was the praise of his employers.
While he was rising in favor and pros

various situations, their employers ex-

Rob, but what can he want 2" Rob had
banged the door bebiud him, and was
whistling up the stairs.
"Hush!' said Annette, on tiptoe.
Mamma is asleep"
"What's the use Of hushing? I've
lost my lunch and come for more"
Mamma stirred in her sleep at the
sound of the voice and the creaking
boots.
"Please !" pleaded Annette, "she's
so tired" And Rob gave Annette's
curls a love pull, and turned to chatter
down stairs.
He will get something in the
pantry" she thought, and sat down
again Oh the doOr-sill to watch If
mamma slept or woke to the crcaking
of boots.
Mamma woke in a little while when
a door banged down stairs so Annette
scampered away for the wonderful tray.
But sad to behold, Rob had treated HIM
self to his luncheon, and the tray in
disorder, the parsley leaves gone, and
the dripping Of soup told a tale Oyer-
pOwering to Annette.

"every one thinks of himself"
