Some Typographical Errors.


shortly after the invention OF printing the wife
OF printer In Germany, while an edition OF the
Bible was IN the press, on one occasion made a
small but important change In the types. The
sentence IN Genesis In which n n declared that
Eve shall be subject 90 her husband runs: HE shall
by thy lord Iierr.l This was altered 90 "He
be thy fool, tNarrl Many copies OF the book got
into circulation before the substitution OF the one
word for the other was discovered, Tor IN black
letter Herr and Narr much resemble each other
IL Is said that the practical joke cost the unfortu
nate woman her life, she having been condemned
20 the stake by the ecclesiastical authorities
During the latter part OF last century awkward
mistake occurred In this country In printing the
Bible. In this edition the word mot" was omitted
In the seventh commandment For this piece OF
carelessness the then archbishop OF Canterbury
imposed a heavy penalty. The edition. 50 far as
practicable, was call In and destroyed. and a rne
OF 10000 was Inflicted upon the printers. The
Roman Catholic Missal issued In France was once
the subject OF a ludicrous blunder. BY tue acc-
dental substitution OF a for a the word
"calOtte" Ian ecclesiastical cap or miter1 was
printed 'culotte" (Orceches) The error occurred
In the directions for conducting the service aud the
sentence altered read: "tiere the priest viii

Garden Lunches,

From the New York World.
Garden lunches are the latest and favorite form
of al yrescO entertaining at Lenox Cpd Bar HarbOr.
II is supersedlng the afternoon lawn party in the
affections OF the fashlonables, because It gives
scope for so many more picturesque effects, 1t
costs very much more money, and is therefore,
more exclusive and delightful The idea is 10 ask
people at O'Clock and give them good lunch,
half In the house ana half Id the gardens; some
under tents, some under trees, and some on the
about sitting tor an hour ana half on the grass
where there may be dampness lurking, which
means rheumatism next day. A band plays under
the trees while the feast goes on, and sometimes
the young people come In FOR a turn OF TWO OF the
waltz In the long drawing rooms before they scat
ter for drives and afternoon teas In the more
meals out OF doors but at Bar HarDor and Lenox it
Is never too hot 10 be pleasant. This sort OF
luncheon YES endless scope for pretty effects
and the gtvers OF them display considerable rivalry
In the desire for novel and picturesque fancies.
At one OF these luncheons given last week In
Lenox the hostess made each one uf her tables rep-
resent some field nower. The buttercup table WAS
a small square one just large enough Tor partie
cdrTee. II was covered with a square OF butter
cup silk over which was laid a linen cloth with
broad stripes Of drawn work through which showed
the yellow beneath. A great bunch OF Duttercups
and grasses stood In yellow bowl In the center Of
The poppy table had as awning great crimson
paper umbrella, with It's handle thrust into the
turf, and 70 the top OF the umbrella was tied huge
bunch OF the scarlet flowers and all the glass and
china on this table was red Another charming
design was the pond-lily table. The awning was
Of pale green silk with white fringes, the table
cloth was OF open work with broad pale green rib
bons woven IN and out through the stripes; from a
tall pale-green Jar fell masses OF pink-and- white
pond lilies with their rfch dark green pads show
Ing o rosy lining The viands are the usual salads,
chicken, lobster sweetbread and peas Ices. fruits
and 1eliies OF the formal breakfast. Men wear
their nannels to these luncheons, but not with
quite that informally that usually characterizes
the costumes comprised under that head That
is they don their waistcoats or else wear white
six shirtA with very broad silk sashes OF delicate
colors about their waists The women dress as for
a lawn party, which means all manner OF delicate
fabrics and brilliant colorN. The favorfte shades
are greens and white; the shoes are rarely OF the
regulation black and show every variety OF tan,
russell white duck with patent leather vamps, and
frequently. with all white oostuneA the white
suede tie.
