To read the Bible through in yeal
means reading three chapters every
weekday and five chapters each Sun
day.
All the letters of the alphabet are
contained in the twenty-frst verse OF
the seventh chapter of Ezra.
The Bible was not divided into chap
tiers, as it is now. until the thirteenth
century Early Hebrew Bibles were
marked into sections and verses by
means of accents, which served as
marks to be observed in the eastern
manner of reading. The work Of d.
viding the Bible into chapters has been
attributed by some to Stephen Lang
ton. The division into verses was made
by a printer Of the name of Robert
Stephens in 1913 and was adopted
throughout all editions.

Table Linen.

In buying table linen the Irish dam
ask, which is grass bleached, IS usu'
ally considered the best. The French
loses it's gloss. and the Scotch is par
TALLY bleached with chlorine, which
weakens the fiber. \ good plan is
to get the half bleached, which soon
gets white. \, poor, sleazy linen Is
never economical. \ good quality looks
well to the last, even darns being con-
sidered a patent Of nobility. An all
over design or a running pattern is to
be preferred in the medium quality of
damask to a cloth that has much plain
surface, while the snowdrop and other
scattered designs may be selected in
the more expensive cloths. The term
''double" damask means heavy linen.
1t is not, however, necessarily more ex-
pensive nor yet better wearing thar
the single damask.
