Caught
Cold!

How often it happens that
serious illness, and sometimes
death, is directly traceable to a
common cold. After it is too
late, what would we not give to
have checked the cold at the
start, when 1t would have
quickly yielded to simple home
treatment.
One of the most effective
remedies for coughs and colds
is made by mixing two ounces
Of glycerine, a half ounce of
Virgin Oil of Pine compound
pure and eight ounces of pure
whisky. These can be bought
in any good drug store and
easily mixed in a large bottle.
1t is claimed by the Leach
Chemical company of Cincin-
natl, who prepare the genuine
Virgin Oil of Pine compound
pure, that a teaspoonful of this
mixture four times a day will
break up a cold in "a hours,
and cure any cough that is cur
able.

/ type for the first Bible published in
England
A specimen of the Caxton memorial
edition now rests in the British mu-
scum beside a copy of that first Eng
lish Bible published in 1850 Both
were printed from metal type set by
hand, as were all the earlier Bibles.
But here the resemblance in the pro-
cess of publicatio ceases. The pro-
cess of plate making has now almost
entirely superseded the old-fashioned
type in Bible publication. This reduc-
ton of labor has reduced the cost Of
production to minimum and Bibles
are correspondingly low priced. Last
year the American Bible society was
able to reduce the price Of a cloth
bound testament from six to five cents
copy and to sell a complete Bible for
II cents The British society furnish
testament for "tuppence" and a Bible
for sixpence
Illustrated Bibles.
While the majority of the Bibles Of
the world are produced by the Ameri-
can and British societies. there are nu-
merous other publishers both in Amer
lea and Europe engaged exclusively in
Bible productions These furnish fine
books for the subscription trade for
gifts and special usage. The Bible So
cieties issue only the scriptures All
teachers Bibles and other issues in
which maps, history and material use
fuI to the student are combined with
the Bible, are issued by private pub
fishers Some of these have built up
enormous trades, especially in illus
trated Bibles. which might be said to
form class by themselves. During the
past year in America Bibles have been
printed in IL languages In some of
these only single volume has been is
sued, but the plates are ready to supply
any reasonable demand on short no
tice- The British and American socie-
ties each publish Bibles in quite
number Of languages which the other
does not duplicate. Thus the expense
of translation and revision in any
language is made as broadly useful as
possible.
During the past year the American
Bible society issued 2s26,S31 volumes
and the British society 6,62OO24. while
Germany, Russia and France and the
other European countries combined re-
port the issuase of 1881, 0O0 In addi-
ton to these are the Bibles issued by
private publishers in the various coun-
tries, which are said to amount to over
100000 This places the total num-
Der of Bibles issued during the year
1910 at nearly $4,000. 0G0 volumes, or
one copy for every 100 persons on the
globe.
The estimated amount of annual ex-
penditure for labor and materials is
placed at considerably over S., ZOO. 900.
While there is no definite means of
determining the number of persons in
the world engaged in the Industry of
Bible production. there is no reason to
question the following statement
made by an agent of the American BIZ
bic society: IF the men engaged in
