Misquotations from Holy Writ

THE Bible is misquoted more than any other
book. All have heard the quotation,
1.-The merciful man is merciful to his beasts"
as coming from the Bible, though the Scrip
tural form is THE righteous man regardeth
the life of his beast"
The quotation from Isaiah reads, "Shall
nation be born at once?" but this is habituay
corrupted to, "A nation shall be born in a
day"
Born unto trouble as the sparks fly up
ware" is quoted, Prone to sin as the sparks
fly upward" There are many quotations
attributed to the Bible that are not to be
found in it. Exalted to Heaven in point of
privilege" does not appear in the Scriptures,
nor does mot to be wise above what is writ
ten"
Absaloms long hair was not the cause
of his destruction. 1t was his head and not the
hair upon it that was caught in the tree.
Nowadays we say Money is the root of
evil" though in the Bible this proverb is found
to read, Love of money is the root of all
evil"
The quotation, Cleanliness is next to god
1iness," does not appear in the Bible at all

Plenty of Room in Heaven

THERE is still room enough in Heaven for
l. all who are fortunate enough to have
their passports accepted by Saint Peter. Ac-
cording to the Bible, Heaven is place twelve
thousand furlongs square. Twelve thousand
furlongs equals 7,3oo, 900 feet, and this number
cubed gives an area of 10000, ooo, 900 ooo,-
600, 900 cubic feet Suppose that half of this
is allowed for Gods throne and the court Of
Heaven, and one-half of what is left for streets.
Then there is balance of 1000, 900, 900 ,ooo,-
ooo, 900 cubic feet.
Now, instead of having Heaven a beautiful
park, let it be divided into number of rooms
of say sixteen feet square. There are 1905
cubic feet in a room sixteen feet square; so the
part of Heaven left for the residence of the
good will be divided by this number, whence
are ,ooo, 900 900 900, 900 rooms sixteen feet
each way. Now, suppose that the world always
did and always will contain 1000, ooo, 900 peo-
pie, and that generation lasts for thirty
three and one-third years, making 5000 ooo,-
900 every century, and that the world will
stand for one thousand centuries, making in
all 5000 ,ooo, 900 900 inhabitants; then sup
pose that there were one hundred worlds equal
to this in number of inhabitants and duration
of years. making total of 500 1000, 900, ooo, 900
persons.

Studying Nature at Woods Hole

the United States Fish Commission which also
has station at Woods Hole. The commission
cooperates with the laboratory people, and it's
facilities are of much value to the students.
These expeditions are of the rough and ready
order. A party decides to make trip to some
cove in the vicinity. The students and indie
pendent Investigators, as the other scientists
are called, man the rowboats. Nets are used
to drag the waters of the cove. The students
pick their way along the bottom, scoopng up
a shellfsh here pulling out a marine plant
there Another squad goes carefully over the
ground in the vicinity also in search of speci
mems
This part of the country is indeed happy
hunting ground for the naturalist, and usually
the expedition returns with a supply of
material for investigation which will last for
weeks. Then the dissecting instruments and
microscopes are brought out and studies pur-
sued under the guidance of the regular faculty.
At Woods Hole have been made some re-
markable discoveries in biology. 1t was here
that Professor Loeb demonstrated that he
could vitalize eggs which were supposed to be
without life by treating them with certain
chemical solutlons-an experiment which has
since attracted much attention among physi-
clans throughout the world. The study of
cell lineage, as it is called, has also been car
ried on here, and experiments made have re-
suited in discoveries almost as important as
that of Professor Loeb. Such is the wide range
of interest in the laboratory that over sixty
colleges and educational institutions fire.

A T Woods Hole, quaint spot on the coast of
n Massachusetts, is summer school where
various types of animal and vegetable life
can be studied as they naturally exist. Conse-
quently, every year are attracted to it STU
dents, physicians, and sometimes even law
yers and ministers in addition to university
and other professors-all DESTROYS of getting the
benefit of the opportunities which it affords.
The present laboratory has been in existence
since 1888. 1t is divided into departments of
zoology, embryology, physiology, and botany,
and these in turn are subdivided SO that the
work takes very wide range A part of the
institution is reserved for museum containing
various types of marine animals and a botan-
ical collection. Another department contains
large variety of microscopic preparations, as
they are called, showing various developments
in embryology, while one of the most attractive
features is herbarium principally of marine
plants.
The reason for locating the laboratory in
this part of the country is the great variety
of specimens, both above and below water,
which can be secured as we'll as on the land.
The formation of the shore is such that
finds sand beaches, mud banks, and lodges of
rock which sustain really wonderful diversity
of salt water creatures of various sizes. Inland
are fresh water ponds and lakes, which are
also the objects of investigation, and plant
life is very abundant hereabouts. The tides
also bring in marine growth of various kinds
from as far away as the Gulf Stream; but an
occasional excursion is made to this wonderful
river in the ocean in one of the steamers of

The Good Book as Literature

WHATEVER may be Our belief regarding
w the truth, accuracy, or use of the
Bible, there are few who have ever read it
who will not admit its excellence as piece of
literature. 1t has been the model and text
book of many great author; and Daniel
Webster once said, after being commended
for his eloquence:
If anything l have ever said or written
deserves the feeblest encomiums of my fellow
countrymen, l have no hesitation in declaring
that for their Partially l am solely indebted
to the daily and attentive perusal of the
Holy Scriptures, the source of all true poetry
and eloquence, as well as of all good and
comfort"
Many parallel passages between the Bible and
Shakespeare occur, and John Quincy Adams in
a letter to his son in 1871, wrote:
Il have for many years made it a practice to
read through the Bible once every year. My
custom is to read four or five chapters every
morning Immediately after rising from bed.
1t takes about an hour of my time, and seems
to me the most suitable manner of beginning
the day. In whatsoever light we regard the
Bible, it is an invaluable and inexhaustibe
mine of knowledge and virtue"
Scott and Byron both were careful readers
of the Bible, and Sir William Jones said:
THE Bible contains more sublimity and
beauty, more important history and finer
strains of poetry, than can be collected from
all other books in whatever age or language
they may have been composed.
Rosseau said, Never did virtue speak SO
sweet language, and never was wisdom ex-
pressed with more energy and simplicity

IN A RELIGIOUS VEIN
Facts About the Bible

WEARS ago some curiosity monger spent
three years in compiling an idle though
curious table or dissection of the Bible. This
antiquarian found that there were 773,6o2
words in the Old and New Testaments, and
that the number of letters in these words was
1880 4So. The same curiosity hunter says
that the word and" appears in the Old Tesla
ment 35,543 times, and in the New Testament
1864 times. The word Jehovah occurs in
the Bible o,Sss times. The twenty-frst verse
of the seventh chapter of Ezra has all the let
tiers of the alphabet in it. The middle verse
in the Bible is in Second Chronicles, twentieth
chapter, between seventeenth and eighteenth
verses.

God in Different Languages

IT is a singular fact that in almost every
known language the word God is spelled
with four letters. In Latin it is Deus, in Greek
Zeus in Hebrew it is Adon, in Arabian ALA, in
Syrian Adad, in Persian it is Lyra in Egyptian
Aumn, in Japanese Zain, in Turkish Add, in
Irish Dich, in German Colt, in French Dieu,
in Icelandic Godh, and in Spanish Dios. The
name God in Anglo-Saxon means good, and
shows clearly the Anglo-Saxon conception of
the Divine Being as being goodness itself.

A Curious Church

THE most singular church in the world is
L probably Saint Johns at Davos Platz, in
Switzerland. Davos Platz is over five thou
sand feet above sea level, and is famous as a
winter resort for consumptives, on account
of it's great purity of air and protection from
high winds.
Saint Johns church is a very small building,
but nevertheless it has two steeples. One of
these is much larger than the other towering
high above the church, and presenting most
singular appearance, being twisted after the
manner of corkscrew. The steeples contain
some fine chimes, which in ancient times were
used to sound the alarm when there was a
threatened invasion Of wild animals.
