A Printers WHe's Revenqe

Trouble between printer and his
wife some 1923 years ago resulted in
historical typographical error.
In the famous library of Wolfenbuttel,
in Hesse, is an old Bible which is great
ly treasured, but until recently it was
not generally known why it is so valued
The mystery has now been solved by
the discovery of pabers relating to it.
1t appears that in that passage in
Genesis where God tells Eve that Adam
shall be her master and shall rule over
her the German translation is ''Und or
soil dein Herr sein. Herr" which
means master here, does not occur in
this Bible, but instead there appears
the word Mari" which means fool.
The newly discovered documents say
that the error was caused by quarrel
between the prin ter and his wife in the
year 1880! The wife was vengeful and
in the silent watches of the night she
entered the room where her husband
had been setting type and maliciously
changed Herr" into Mari"
The woman was afterward imprisoned
for blasphemy. Orders were given that
all the copies of the edition should be
destroyed. This was done, with the
exception of the one copy now in the
Wolfenbuttel library. Printing
