THE BREECHES BIBLE.
8 Copy of the Rare Old Volume Owned i
Hartford, Conn.

Copy of the Rare Old Volume Owned in
Hartford, Conn.
A well-preserved volume of the gen.
uine old Brooches Bible" so called, is
in the possession of Mr.. Horace John
son, of Hartford It was printed in
London in 1902 in the old ''black let
ter" teXt-enough to spoil the sight of
any but the most persistent reader;
but it was a kind of print with which
Shakespeare and Lord Bacon were ia
miliar. This edition-probably copied
from the Bishops Bible" of 1868
derives its irreverent name from it's
version of the story of Adam and Eve
in the garden. In chap. iii, V. z, after
telling of the transgression, it reads:
z. Then the eyes of them both were
opened, and they knew that they were
naked; and they sewed fig tree leaves
together, and made themselves
breeches.
That picturesque attire is changed
in King James version, which APP
peared nine years later, to "aprons"
the present accepted version. King
James tifty-four translators only made
alterations of the Tyndale and Cover
dale text, and of the Bishops Bible, :"
when it was found to be 'necessa airy. :"
The new revised version, however,
makes a good many changes. 1t cost
poor Tyndale his life-he was burnt at
the stake, near Brussels, in 1536-for
daring to make a translation into En-
glish.
This quaint old Bible includes those
Old Testament books that have since
been relegated to the nebulous limbo
of 1.-The Apocrypha, and includes
them without any mark of separation
from those that are now accepted.
There are the books of Baruch, of Su-
sannah, of Jesus the son of Sirach,
the book of Maccabees, Esdras, Tobit,
Bel and the Dragon, ETC., all figuring
as a part Of the divinely inspired
word. If we can believe the various
holy councils" on those subjects,
more or less of these apocryphal books
are not so inspired.
Mr.. JOhnson's old Bible contains al
so the quaint psalmody of Sternhold
ans Hopkins-the psalm of David
''done into" English verse.
The quaint character of the me-
chanical work, alone, of this old Bible
makes it an interesting study to any
one especially who knows much about
printing. Unfortunately the quaint
old title page is missing-its place be-
ing supplied by a pen and ink copy

HOME AND EARN.

Celery is not only very healthful
for man, but for beast also. So don't
waste the leaves and root trimmings.
Hardly any thing gives a farm a
more slovenly appearance than fringe
of bushes around every field, and
clumps of brush growing in the middle
of them.
Salmon Salad: Cut some salmon
into pieces the size of dollar, garnish
with lettuce, chopped beet and strips
of lettuce. Put a salad dressing over
the whole and serve.
Keep the onions in the barn loft
or some other dry place. When the
crop is dug let them dry well. Store
them free from dirt and loosely, as
they should not be piled, but scattered.
TO admit the air.
Rock Cream: Sweeten one cup of
cold boiled rice and put in deep dish;
lay on it, in different places, small
squares of jelly; beat the whites of
six eggs to froth with little pow
dered sugar; add one tablespoonful of
cream and pour over the rice.
The term ''breaking'' as applied
to the domestic animals has an I'M
pleasant Specification. 1t indicates bad
management forcibly remedied. A
calf or a colt should be trained from
it's birth, and it should be gradually
led in the way it should go.-N. E.
Farmer.
Fish Croquettes: Take dressed
fish of any kind, separate the meat
from the bones, chop, and season to
suit the taste Add one well-beaten
egg, very little -four and milk, and
make into balls. Roll these in egg,
then in cracker crumbs, and fry nice
brown.
TO keep well in the bale, to retain
its color and sweet odor. hay should
not be baled until it has gone through
the second curing process in barn or
stack, which usually takes ten or
twelve weeks. Hay baled before that
and spoil, but baledx after second cur
ing it will keep for weeks if kept en-
tirely free from moisture. Country
Gentleman.
-Smothered Veal: Place in the
bottom of a baking-pan three or four
potatoes sliced. one small onion sliced,
two slices of salt pork cut into strips,
season, with salt, pepper and sage,
place over this three or four pounds Of
veal from the breast, or any other part
desired, cover the meat with sliced
potatoes, onion and other seasoning,
sprinkle over all a tablespoonful Of
-four, add a pint of water, cover the
pan with another Ones and place in the
oven and cook one and one-half hours,
adding water if it cooks dry.
When cream is thick and ropy,
and will not churn, it is because of the
presence of an excess of albumen,
which is like the white of an egg.
This also prevents the escape of the
air, gathered by churning, as is de-
noted by the swelling Of the cream,
which becomes frothy. Too low a
temperature sometimes operates in
this way, while too high a Temporal
ture makes the butter too soft and
porous. 1t is we'll to raise the tenn
perature of the cream somewhat
higher than the churning point, and
let it lower at it. as fat is bad con-
ductor and does not heat as soon as the
fluids in the cream.

of Domestic Matters.
When making over old dresses or
other garments, buy new Innings. 1t
is penny wise and pound foolish" to
use old, and half-worn ones.
After all powders are tried genuine
house-keepers are quite likely to go
back to old-fashioned washing soda
for cleaning floors, sinks, iron and
other metal work. There is nothing
that removes impuritY so rapidly as
boiling hot soda and water, applied
with a long-handled scrubbing brush.
and rinsed off once with clear water
and dried with clean cloth. A large
lump of soda melted over the drain in
the sink keeps the pipe clear from all
grease. While soda is a scrubbers
main dependence, it should never be
used by the laundress, as is seriously
Injuries cloth.
Wells should be ventilated, as the
water is thereby kept fresh and free
from bad odor. The absorption of air
by water renders it pleasanter to the
taste, and purifies it to some extent; but
the effect is not very marked one.
Use an under table-cloth of colored
canton flannel on your dining-table. 1t
not only will make the linen one look
heavier and hang better, but will in
one year save its original cost in the
added wear of the linen ones, princi-
pally on the edge of the table, where
they otherwise wear out first.
Oil of peppermint in vapor diluted

A cool cellar does not mean damp
cellar. The cellar should be we'll

whitewashing whenever it is necessary
to do so. Every portion of the cellar

preciate or venerate our teachers. We
were rather afraid of the moonshees
at first, as they looked so imposing. As
to the pundits, they probably despised
and disliked us as much as we objected
to them. They usually turned up at
our house between ten and eleven, and
were kept waiting until it was our
pleasure to read with them. But many
a day, and oft when the arrival of the
moOnshee was announced, he was sum-
marily told that he might go away,
and he departed with very little re-
luctance. But our behavior was en-
tirely different to two, if not three, of
the teachers of languages, who under
stood English we'll, and knew also how
to teach the native languages. Raj
Chunder and Harry Mohun knew
all the college languages as
well as English, and their serv-
ices were in great demand.
Out of the twenty students in
college at least six employed Raj
Chunder, and six engaged Harry
Mohun, while the third man, whose
name l have forgotten, got a few
pupils. Raj Chunder was my coach,
and l was entitled to a sixth part of
his time during the day of six hours,
for he was not so imprudent as TO
overwork himself. The difficulty was
to get good hour with him. There
was always much competition for the
morning hour from seven to eight,
but from eleven to twelve was the
most coveted period, and some men
paid little extra to get it. His Or
binary charge was thirty rupees a
month. He was an excellent teacher,
and he knew all the little tricks and
lodges for examining a student up
to the point just sufficient to pass;
while for those who read for honors
he was always eager to assist them in
acquiring thorough knowledge of
the book and the written and CONVEX
sational work.-Longman's Magazine.

MOONSHEES AND PUNDITS.

Personality of the Men Engaged in
Teaching Oriental Languages.
To each of us a moOnshee or pundit
was assigned from the college free of
charge. These gentlemen were gov
ernment-paid servants, and none of
them would talk English, though some
of them had slight smattering of it.
The moonshees, who taught us Persian
or Hindustani, were usually Mahom-
medan gentlemen, with gray boards
and huge turbans, some of them
magnificently robed, and nearly all of
them addicted to snuff. The pundits,
who instructed us in Bengai and
Sanskrit, were Hindoos of high caste
and OF much-reputed learning in their
own religion and philosophy; but their
garments were scanty and almost in
decent being chiefly made of fine
white muslin, Their heads were bare
