Sheol as II Substitute.
New York World,

In accordance with the agreement
on both sides of the Atlantic, yester
day WAS the day when publishers were
permitted to issue and booksellers tc
offer for the first time the new revised
edition OF the Old Testament. The
excitement which emphasized the
enormous circulation of the revised
New Testament, which was sold by
the thousands ON the very curbstones
were conspicuously wanting yesterday
The greater cost OF the book, the alb
sence of curiosity and above all the
fact that the revision Is not called for
is not wanted, will not be popular, and
will not supersele the revered and ac.
cepted King james version, will con-
fine the circulation OF the new book
TO the libraries of clergymen and
scholars who MAY want it for reference
and for comparison with the generally
accepted version.
And after all, the changes in the new
book are comparatively few and not
specially important. The one that
excites the most attention and criti-
cism is the substitution OF the word
'sshoer for the blunt Saxon Ahell.'
Talbot w. Chalmers, in his opportu-
nelly published "Companion" To the
Revision, says that she'll in popular
English is place OF endless punish
ment, sense which sheol never has" /"
Precisely; and the substitu ion of
sheol is timely concession to advanc-
ed clergymen like MIR. Beecher and
many more who do not believe in nor
now preach the doctrine which the
long-current Calvinistic idea of the
word '.helP is intended to convey
But its use in what Mr.. Chalmers
calls popular English" will be s;ldly
interfered with by the substitution OF
sheol for the short but expressive word
SO emphatic in the expletives OF army
Offices and ship captains, and which is
believed 10 have played an important
part in the campaign OF "Our Army in
Flanders" Aud what viii become of

rot Is to revise his version to "We've
had slleol of time ?" The story
will be tanner than either monkey or
parrot, and the revision threatens To
relegate to obscurity bushels of old
chestnuts whose chief charm has been
the apt use of the word for which
sheol is substituted.

The American Advertiser Reporter
has this remark in favor OF Mercantile
Agencies !:
Credit is necessity, without it the
wheels of commerce would Teyolye
but slowly and industries would dag.
The mercantile house that does NOT
grant credit does not exist, and the
business of the United States has at
tanned vast proportions though this ex-
tension of credit. To the mercantile
agencies must be given i large pro-
portion OF the credit due Tor this ex-
pansion. Il is true they occasionally
make mistake: but the man that does
not make mistakes does not rightfully
belong TO this sphere; all snrh men
are needed on the other side.

Some time ago the editor of the

". We take these extracts from the
first number of the Fire Fly which APP
peared after the exchange had taken
place: "SVe have shouldered the re-
sponsibility Of running this paper, and
we request our readers to pay up at
once and pray at their earliest conve-
nienoe, We understand that Ander-
son Gregg cut off one Of his fingers the

worse. We pray that the legislature
may not forget to adjourn. We trust
that crops may be better next season.
We hope the severest part of the win
ter has prst. We have faith in our
ability to run this paper"
The editor without embarrassment
took his place in the pulpit, but he
soon became confused. Striking the
book of books, he said: Hereafter we
will not receive old rails in exchange
for our gospel. Turnips wilIdo very
well, but we are not COW. Never be-

An exchange correctly says: When
you hear man sneering mt the local
papers because they are not as big,
cheap and newsy as other papers, you
can safely bet that he does not squan-
der his wealth in assisting 10 make
them better, and that generally the pa
s,ers have done more for him than he
has for them. The man who cannot
