SHALL We MEET AGANP-The follow
ing is one OF the most brilliant para
graphs ever written by the late George d..
Prentice:
"The fiat of death is inexorable There
is no appeal for relief from the great law
which dooms us TO dust. We flourish and
fade as the leaves of the forest, and the
flowers that bloom, wiLher and fade in Il
day, have no Trailer hold upon life than
the nlghtiest monarch that ever shook the
earth with his footsteps. Generations of
men will appear and disappear as the
grass and the multitude that throng the
world to-day will disappear as footsteps
on the shore. Men seldom think of the
great event of death until the shadows fall
across their pathway, hiding from then
eyes the faces of loved ones whose living
smile was the sunlight of their existence.
Death is the antagonist of life, and the
lOmb is the skeleton OF all teastS We dc
not want to 90 through the dark valley
although the dark passage may lead to
paradise; we do not want TO 60 down into
dark graves, even with princes for bedfel-
lows. In the beautiful drama of "Ion the
hope of Immortality, so eloquently uttered
by The death devoted Greek, finds deep
response in every thoughtful mind When
about 10 yield his life sacrifice to fate
his Clemanthe asks if they should meel
again, TO which he responds; Il have asket
that dreadful question of the hills that ool
elcrnal-oi the clear streams that flow
forever-of the stars among whose tielc
OF azure my raised spirits have walked il
Hl"ry. All are dumb. But as gaze upol
thy living face, feel that there is some
thing in love that mantles through it,
beauty that cannot wholly perish. W.
shtl meet II. ain, Clemanthe. )"

MISTAKES OF EARLY BIBLE TRANsLA-
ToRs.-rhree hundred years ago the gram
matica nceties of the Greek language
werr unknown, and Hebrew studies were
i'll their infancy' BuXtorf published his
little Hebrew grammar while the transla-
tors were at work. and his larger one
after hey had finished. In many cases so
weak were they in Hebrew, they were
compelled to leave Hebrew words untrans-
lated. not knowing or being able to
guess their meaning. A familiar in
stance is the word Bellal, which is supposed
to be proper name, but il simply means
unworthy and the phrase ''sons of BeliaP
should properly read unworthy men p
"Jasher' is not proper name, but an
adjective, meaning upright, and the
"BOok of Jasher" was the Book of the
Upright.' The "Gammadims" (Ezek
Il ll) are warriors; "Pannag" " II,
means a candy 'Sheth' means a tumut
'Bajth." an idol temple. Their wilc
'guesses" often show absurd blunders
The mules" mentioned in Genesis
as having been found were warm
springs; pledges they turned into thick
clay; fleet into both piercing and
'icOhNhs Nhllo luto
into avenging; "ostriches" into owls
goats" into satyrs; "droves" into liner
yarn; "set up they render rs cast down
and Jo,eph's "tuoIc with long sleeves
they ran-mogrfy into a coat of many
cOlors
Still more important than either the
changes If the language or the blunders
Of translatOrs have been the corrections
thai have been made in the original text
by the comparison of manuscripts general
y and by the discovery of two very an
clent manuscripts of the Bible. A single
illustration will suffice: Mark says that or
the cross the Christ was given wine min
gled with myrrh; Matthew says vinegar
The harmony" that gives Him tw,
drinks is bosh for children; scholars know
there is contradiction. The nalura
inference is that the writers did not disa
gree and that the error arose in copvin
Bv comparing manuscripts the inference
is found to be correct, the older codice
agreeing upon wine. The two words il
the Greek are much alike, differing oni
in the middle letter.
