GENERAL JACK FROST
Some OF the Remarkable Parts He has
Played in the Big Wars.

1t is eighteen years since we had a
hard winter. There has not been a
fortnight's skating on end in the South
of England since 1894-5. Rain, fog
gloom, sometimes a half-hearted at
tempt at snow have been our winters
ever since.
Weather experts declare that anoth-
er big cold snap is due, and they point
to 1879, when a summer exactly like
the deplorable one Of 1912 was fol-
lowed by weeks on end of bitter frost
and whirling snowdrifts.
If it comes-if the year 1913 is go

hard winters-it will add just one
more to Il long train Of really amazing

SOME BIBLE HISTORY.
How the "Improved" Scriptures Came
to be Published.

The Watchman, the leading Baptist
journal in the United States, takes
exception to calling the recently-pub-
Tlished Baptist Bible "new," says the
Springfield Republican. The history
of the enterprise, the elimination of
which is new at least to most people
outside of the Baptist denomination,
is set forth in the following editorial
in the current issue of the Watchman:
Baptists have generally been sur
prised at the statements which have
appeared in the secular press that a
new Baptist Bible has just been issued
by the American Baptist publication
society, in which startling innovations
are made from the time-honored King
James Version; and some of the an
cient traditions of Christianity aree
thrown overheard and the Baptists as
body have embarked on the broad
sea of heresy.
Inasmuch as Baptists generally have
heard nothing of Bible of this amaz-
ing character, they are naturally amaz-
ed at the position in which they find
themselves, and are anxiously curious
to learn from what source all this ex-
citing accusation has arisen.
We hasten to assure our eager Bap-
tist inquirers that the origin of this
new and startling innovation with
which they are charged, dates back
nearly half century. The most
startling variations which the secular
papers have discovered in this social
ed new Baptist Bible, first appeared in
T 1855 in the revised New Testan,l. IS
sued by the American Bible union. The
enterprising daily papers have just
discovered it.
It reminds us of the story of the ed
itor who happened to read the story
of the food, and soundly scolded his
staff of reporters because they had al
lowed the other papers to get scoop
on them.
