An extraordinary demand has arisen
in the eastern counties of England for
secondhand Bibles-the older and dirt.
Ter the better. Copies which formerly
realized four pence are now readily
bought for half crown. They are
being used to manufacture evidence Of
age In the case OF old-age pensions. A
woman who produced Bible to prove
her age as 10 from an entry on the
fyleaf had. unfortunately, omitted to
tear out the title page. which showed
that the Bible was printed In 1905.
