PINS IN THE BIRLE.-lt was an old
Bible, a well-worn Bible-the Bible OF
an old lady, who had read it, and
walked by it, and fed on it, and pray
ed over it for long lifetime.
As she grew older and older her light
began to fail, and she found it hard to
find her favorite verses. But she could
not live without them so what
did she do! She stuck a pin in them,
one by one, and after her death they
counted one hundred and sixty.eight
pins there.
When people went to see her, she
would open her Bible, and, feeling over
the page after her pin, would say,
"Read there" or"Read here.' and she
knew pretty well what verse was stuck
by that pin, and what by this pin. She
could indeed say of her precious Bible,
81 love thy commandments above gold
yea, above fine gold" They are sweet
er to me ethan honey, and the honey
comb
"Stick pin there!' reader.
Alongside of the old Su nday law OF
1794, the Pennsylvania statute has on
record another, making blasphemy a
punishable offence. One day last week
a man in Allegheny was fined sixty
five cents, by the application Of this
law, for single specimen Of public
profanity. Like the Sunday law re-
iating to public conveyances and Sc
cular employments, the law on bias
phemy is almost dead letter. Not
one transgressor in a million has been
prosecuted. And yet it is a reasona-
BILE requirement that profane swearers
shall not be free to shock the ears OF
Christians and children by words OF
wickedness. Every home may claim
protection by law against robbers and
thieves; and every public avenue is
guarded by the sentinels of the law
That ignorant or wilfully violent per-
sons should pollute the air by bias
phemy, and, by example, teach limo
cent children their evil ways, is a
question, surely, which legislators may
properly consider.
