THE NEW OLD TESTAMENT

The revised translation of the Old
Testament which will shortly be pub
lished, may not take the place of the
authorized version in popular estima-
ton; but it may be fairly expected
to clear up many infelicities and
obscurities in that version which puz-
zle the ordinary reader. The "un-
icorn'' which uever existed outside
the English Bible, will at last be
killed. and the "wild OK substituted
in its place. The "Book of flasher"
will be changed to thes'Book of the
Upright" Sunday-school children
will be no longer troubled by the ethics
of the Israelites in "borrowing"
jewelry from the Egyptian, and then
running away with it. The revised
translation will rightly state that
they asked for gifts, not loans. Jo-
seph's many-colored sscoat' will be
a sstunlc." The celebrated passage in

Thoughts in my Garden

I cannot think, as through the woods
Or in the garden path 1 stray,
That, in their pleasant solitudes,
have no comrades by the way;
Comrades that lack the power of speech,
But live their lives as l do mine,
And hold communion each with each,
Linked by affinites divine.
The tree that, for thousand springs,
Has wavedits branches to the storm,
May feel the joy that summer brings
Through all the fbers of its form;
And when, in ripeness of the seed.
1t yields it to the wandering wind,
1t may have joy, by heaven decreed,
In propagation of its kind.
What right have we, in lordly pride,
To think that we alone possess,
With all its joys and pains allied,
The priceless gift of consciousness?
Or, in our ignorance, to deem
That none but we, of all who live,
Who fondly call ourselves supreme,
Inherit all that God can give?
What right, in gazing on the flowers,
To think and act as if we knew
That all these fairies of the bowers,
So sweet of scent, so bright of hue,
Are nothing in Creations plan
Except to blossom for our eyes,
Living and dying in the span
That measures daylight in the skies?
The lily, robed in spotless white,
That opens to the morning sun,
May feel the blessings of the light
And count the seasons as they run.
The humblest violet on the sod,
Chilled by the dews at cleaning gray,
May own the fatherhood of God,
And thank him for the dawning day.
They live, they love, they comprehend
More than our narrow wit can guess,
With all its insight, though it tend
To more than language can express.
And though they lack, if they can think,
The power to breath the living thought,
The dog that breathes on Reasons brink
Is mute as they, and tells us naught.
If dogs have language in their eyes,
The trees and flowers may have it too;
In swift, electric sympathies,
Born of an odor or hue;
Born of motion or breath,
A slightest tremor of a leaf,
Brimful of life, perchance of death,
And messages of sin and grief.
Such are the waking dreams that fill
My vagrant fancy as l walk;
Such are the friends l find at will
In fiowerets blooming ON the stalk.
Flowerets, unplucked, except to lie
On youthful beauty's snowy breast,
Where they might live, as well as die,
If might choose their place ofre

What We Need.

Paw Paw is one of the pleasantest, neat
est, tidiest towns in western Michigan, and
very desirable place for a permanent resi-
dence. But what it needs more than any.
thing else, is an increase of its manufactur-
ing enterprises and interests. Possessing as
it does, ample water power, some portions
of which are remaining wholly idle, while
other portions are as yet wholly undevelop-
ed, it would be difficult to find location
where new manufacturing enterprises could
be more easily and more proftably estab-
lished. We are led to make the foregoing
remarks, from the fact that at the present
time certain capitalists at Lima and Dayton,
Ohio, are looking for suitable point in
southwestern Michigan at which to estab-
lish mandatory of wood pulp to be made
into paper.
They are said to be men who are thoroughly
conversant with their business, and wherever
they locate they will build up an institution
that will give employment to large number
of men, and create a market for a large
amount of what is now comparatively worth
less timber. Such an institution would be
valuable addition to the industries of our
village and great benefit to the surrounding
country. II is probable that the parties will
visit this place before they finally locate. and
we hope that such inducements may be held
out to them, that they will decide to estab-
lish their institution in our midst. Manu-.
featuring enterprises are the life of a town
and every one that can be secured il an ad-
ditional guaranty of our future success and
prosperity.
Had the citizens of this village and vi
cinity, in times past been fully alive to
their best interests, and used every means
at their command to secure and foster
manufacturing establishments here, Paw
Paw might have numbered as many thous
ands to-day as il does hundreds. 1t is not
yet too late to secure such advantages. Let
us be careful that we do not let the golden
opportunity pass, only to regret our apathy
at last.
