Some Curious Calculations.

A rapid penman can write thirty words in minute. To do this he must draw his pen through the space of a rod, sixteen and half feet. In forty minutes his pen travels a furlong. We make, on an average, sixteen curves or turns of the pen in writing each word. Writing thirty words in a minute, we must make 4SO turns to each minute; in an hour, 2S,000; in day of only five hours, 144,000; in year of 300 such days 43,200,000. The man, therefore, who made 100000 strokes with his pen was not at all remarkable. Many men newspaper writers, forinstance- make 100000. Here we have, in the aggregate, Q mark 300 miles long to be traced on paper by such writer in a year.

The New Testament.

The books of the New Testament were originally written in the Greek language, and at different periods of time, ranging from 55 A. D. to 9S A. D.
 They were of course in manuscript form, written on parchment or vellum; and of the most ancient manuscript only five are known to be in existence at this time.
 The Alexandrian Manuscript, named from the place where it was found, and written in the fifth century, and now in the British Museum.
 The Vatican Manuscript, named after the Pope's palace, and written in the fourth century. It was taken from Rome to Paris by the first Napoleon, but having been returned it is now very zeal ously guarded in the Vatican Library.
 The Ephraem Manuscript, written by a Syrian divine named Ephraem in the fourth century, and now in the Nation al Library at Paris.
 The Beza Manuscript, named after its discover and owner, and written in the sixth century.
 The Sinaitic Manuscript. named from being discovered in the Convent of St. Catharine on Mt. Sinai. It was written in the fourth century. and is now in the Imperial Library at St. Petersburg, the capital of Russia.
 From these manuscripts, none of them, however, being complete. differ eut versions were made. at different times, such as the Syriac, Egyptian, Memphitic, Thebaic, Gothic, Armenian, Persian, Ethiopian, Greek and Latin, SC named on account of the language into which, or the place where, they were translated.
 All of the Bible, including the Old and New Testament, was translated in. to the Latin Vulgate in the year 4O5 this being the only authentic version according to the Roman Catholic Church and from this and other versions tht English versions were made.-N. 4 IrUebl1Od i1s Christian Worker.

A Hard Set

There is nothing like telling the truth in 2 prayer, and when one prays he ought to go directly to the point, in stead of rambling all over creation. We always took a hearty interest in the fol- lowing: The Beaver family, up among the mountains, were hard set. One day the youngest of the boys was bitten by rattlesnake, and the old folks were so scared that they sent at once for the minister. who knelt down and prayed: 70. Lord! We thank thee for rattle snakes! We thank thee that a rattle snake bit Jim. We pray thee to send one to bite John; send another to bite Bill; and o, Lord! send the biggest Of thy rattlesnakes to bite the old man, for nothing but rattlesnakes will bring the Beaver family to repentance!

John Kuhn, of Lafayette, Ind, had a very narrow escape from death. This is his own story; Zone year ago 1 was in the last stages of consumption. Onr best physicians gave my case up.

I continued until took nine bottles. am now in perfect health having used no other medicine" From the above it is plainly evident that there IS cure for consumption, even in the most hopeles cases, and that cure is Dr. Wm.

When her attention was again directed to the child she discover ed that it had been almost eaten up by mosquitoes. They had collected on the little thing in such numbers that it's face and arms were completely raw from their attacks. So many had bitten the baby that it died next day from the ef- fleets of the poison.

Who Supports loafe-s.

In the cities and in all the cities, in
the towns and in all the towns, and in
every village, can be seen many young
men who do not work, yet who dress
very well, and seem to live from year to
year without any Of the cares and bur
dens which the industrious and the fru
gal have to endure. Many have won
dered how they can manage to keep UP
appearances. An exchange thus ex'
plains it:
I" Most Of these oilers sponge thcil
living from Woodworking fathers, moth
crs and sisters. They have no respect
for themselves, or any one else, and
their greatest developments Of character
are laziness aud selfshncss They spend
their days in places that are not cleva
ting to any one, and nights in the COM
pauy Of young girls who, if they were
acquainted with their character, would
loaihe and scorn them. Woe to the

their hearts can be thrilled by them.

are goue, say before they go. The flow
ers you mean to send for the collins,
send to brighten and sweeten their
homes before they leave them. If my
