Another section Of this tercentenary
exhibition will consist OF q set of Pc
Culiar Bibles"--editions which, because
of some typographical or other error,
have become famous and known by
such fanciful names as the Vine gar
Bible, the Treacle Bible, the Wicked
Bible and the Bug Bible, to mention
only a few. There are about 20 Of
these peculiar Bibles in all, each with
d definite history for it's odd Nickname.
For example, an authorized edition Of
the Bible was printed in London IN
1881, by Robert Barker and Martin
Lucas, which is known as the Wicked
Bible, because the negative was left
out of the seventh commandment. The
king ordered that the printers should
be fined 5000 pounds. Only four copies
of this Bible are known to be in exist
ence.
Some of the queer Bibles.
The TreacIe Bible, issued in 1858, was
so named from its rendering of Jere-
miah VIII, p: rs there no treacle in
Gilead?" instead of the word balm"
The Bug Bible, which bears the date
1851. won its distinctive title through
a queer rendering OF Psalm XCI., 5:
where the word bug is substituted
Thou shalt not be afraid for the bug
by night" Then there is the Vinegar
Bible, where, instead of the Parable
of the vineyard we read, the Para BILE
of the vinegar This occurred in the
chapter heading Of Luke Xxx, in an
Oxford edition of the authorized YER
sion published in 1717. This book was
the most sumptuous Of the Oxford
editions, got out by a printer named
Basket, some OF the copies being print
ed on vel1um. Owing to careless proof
reading ali through, II was dubbed "a
basketful Of errors"
There is also on exhibition the most
valuable printed book in the whole
world-a copy. Of the Gutenberg Bible,
which was printed at Mainz, in Ger
many. Experts say that its present
day value would be difficult to de-
termine, since no copy has recently
come into the market at any of the
sales Of rare books IN London Yet it
is known that its price and its value
have steadily advanced In 1884 a
copy sold for $500 pounds; in 1897 the
Ashburnham copy on vellum sold for
1000 pounds. The late Robert Hoe pre-
dicted that it would not be long be-
fore a copy Of the rare Gutenberg
Bible would easily fetch $4,000.
The English Bible is in itself an
epttome or the struggles and advances
of the English-speaking races. The
king James Bible engaged At OF the
best scholars of their day, involving
on their part many years Of labor.

If you remember, it was raining
and out of the rain and storm 81

Dorothy Dix Says F.. s,'s e,,, !. Gil.
He Knows the Pitfalls Of the World Better Than Anv ots.

IN Fan Sarah Louise Arnold. OF
Simmons college, declares fathers
are better guides for girls than
mothers. She says she has observed
that, when father takes hand in
directing his daughters education, he
has a much clearer vision OF the things
the girl viii need to know n after life,
and the paths that will open out before
her. than her mother has.
This is undoubtedly true, and not
only during her school days. but dur
ing the whole formative period of her
life, there is no other influence so val
liable TO girl as her fathers. And
it is a beneficent influence that she
carries with her to the end of her days.
You can always pick out a woman
who has been lucky enough to have
been pals with her father, and you
pick her out by her breadth Of charac-
ter, her generosity, her sanity of view.
and competence and helpfulness In any
situation that may arise. A man does
not raise up a girl to be a silly, preju-
diced, historical bundle OF nerves
That is the result of too much mother
and undiluted femininity in a girls
cosmos.
Making Father a COnffdant.
It is the custom to assume that no
two human being can be as close to-
gether as a mother and daughter. or
can be as confidential, but as a matter
Of fact no girl ever loves her mother
with the passion and devotion that she
gives to her father. If he lets her. and
she finds it a hundred times harder
to tell her mother her little secrets
than she does her father
There are many reasons for this. the
chief OF which is that the fonder the
mother. the more bossy she is. and
the more certain that she has a divine
right to decide every question in the
girls life from the color Of the ribbon
she shall wear up to the kind Of a hus-
band she shall marry. Fathers ara
more tOlerating and are used to grant
ing other people personal liberty and
a right to their own opinion, and they
extend this privilege to their daugh-
tiers.
Hence it is a thousand times easter
for a girl who is on affectionate terms
with her father to open out her heart
to him than it is to mother, and this
gives the father the inestimable ad
vantage of knowing what his daughter
is thinking of doing before she does it.
The greatest blessing that fate ever
bestows upon a woman is in giving her
a real. live. flesh and-blood father,
with quick sympathies and understand
ings, instead Of the ordinary cash reg
lister parent, that is all that unfortun-
ate American girls ordinarily get.
A Crime for Such Fathers.
1t is one of the most tragical things
on earth that so many men consider
that their whole duty toward their
daughters consists in making money
enough to buy them a frill; and they
are so busy doing this that they never

Ardmore is to lose one of her most
talented musicians. Mrs. Clara b.
Hardy has been identified with the
musical interests of the city for a
number of years and has delighted
thousands of hearers with her mag.
nificent voice. but she has received
an offer from Fort Worth that she
has accepted and will leave Ardmore
the first of the week.
The various Methodist churches OF
the city have formed a mission and
she is to direct the choir which will
be one of the largest in the state and
affords a permanent position TO her.
Ardmore music lovers will regret
to lose Mrs Hardy. but Fort Worth
is to be congratulated at gaining her.

Nothing more delightful could well
be imagined than an exchange from

now being shown. One of these love
ly garments is of white chiffon, veiled
with black, and the dullness of its
general tone admits of some bril-
liant coloring in the decorations. The
collar, in which gold and red embroid-

cry are prominent, is adorned at the
back with big red tassel that looks
as if it might have been supplied by
the upholster. The effect of this
heavy ornament in union with the
diaphanous fabric of the wrap is re-
markably pleasing, as are many of the
other incongruities invented of late
by the fashion makers.
Equally refreshing are the new
white serge tailored costumes, wheth-
er severely or plain or more or less
ornate. The simplest have no orna-
ment except white pearl buttons,
which not only serve for fastening the
coats. but also arranged in groups,
add to the beauty of the skirts. The
wide braids, which in black have
adorned so many winter costumes,
are now appearing in white for the
glorification of the more elaborate
white serge models. Satin rolls, too,
are among the decorations used. A
single heavy and wide spreading frog
made of these rolls serves for the
fastening of some Of the coats and
may be supplemented by wide white
satin collar, either with or without
the addition of delicately tinted en-
broideries.

State Game Warden Will Use His Good
Offices To,pard determination OF Boil Weem

haustive research into the affairs
of the department, contains some in
teresting information, and some con
templated improvements in the de
paltment, which Mr.. Frame, the new
warden, will carry to completion. \
portion OF the report contains the
following information:
Maine was one of the first states
of the union to pass a special statute
for the protection of the birds, fish
and game. While this had been one
of the greatest game states OF the
country the supply had been so de
preciated that the people demanded
some relief which caused this law to
be enacted.
Immediately after the enforcement
of this law was begun the game and
fish increased so rapidly that now
it is estimated that over $50, 900 peo
pie visit annually the state of Maine
to spend a few weeks or days in
the woods where the game is plen-
tiful and along the streams and lakes
where fish abounds.
"The people in Maine cater to the
vacation tourist business very much
in the same way as business men
cater to some trade and they find it
to be a good business proposition.
Many of the local people often re-
fuse to touch the game and fish,
but save it for visitors who spend
their money there. From statistics
compiled by reports made by differ
ent officers, it is known that these
tourists spend in the state each
year from $lS,000,O00 to $20,O00,000.
The TWO thousand licensed guards
in tha, state earned last year $5G7,-
600 in wages. SO profitable has this
business Of protecting the game
been in that state that during the
years OF the recent money panics
business was but little affected.
Oklahoma has more kinds of game
and more game of each kind than
Maine had when this law was first
put into operation by them. While
it nigh, appear that parts of Okla
hoTa can never be made profitable
yet we are of the opinion that he
fore many years the rugged and
mountainous sections OF this state
will derive as great a revenue foi
the people who live there as Other
portions of the state apparently more
favored. and farmers who live where
there is only small game will pro
tect and save same and realize {
handsome sum each year from visit
ors. not to mention the amount o
revenue that will flow into the stat,
treasury by the sale of non-residen
