An Entirely New New Testament
By REV. e. F. AKED, D. D.

Shocks" the reader of the
new" New Testament will GER
tainly experience. From this
point of view DR.. Moffatt's work
rs full of faults. The gains in
his version are enormous. The
failures are innumerable On the
same page are found changes
which make one cry out with sur
prise and delight and gratitude,
and changes which make one
gnash his teeth. There are fine
ture. even when brough, side by
side with the authorized version
There are passages which make
one wonder what DR. Moffatt has
done with his literary sense, with
his feeling for words, and with
his good taste.
DR., Moffatt is obsessed by GER
tain words, such as the awkward
get and the ugly got Here
are dreadful specimens:
"TheR Jerusalem rent
OFT to Him and got baptized by
Him" Then Jesus came on the
scene from Gdiilee, to get bdp-
H:ed on JOhR." ~ need TO get
baptized by you." "Perh0ps this
tcdS rhy UOH and He Were parted
for u irhiIC. that you might get
Him back for good" "ThroH0h
Him zee hare got access to this
grace"
This is not literary English. 1t
is not good newspaper" English.
1t is impossible not to regard
some passages as too free and
easy.
But there is much that is en-
tirely noble i'll the translation.
Sometimes the gain is in strength,
sometimes in marvellous fresh
ness and suggestion, always there
is a gain in lucidity. No one
should give up a difficult passage
in the New Testament until DR..
Moffatt has been consulted. The
probability is that in his trans
lation the difficulty explains itself.
Here are some good examples
of added intelligibility and
strength:

While the vivid metaphor of
the Christians armor grows more
vivid in:
Hold your ground, tighten the
belt Of truth about yom loins.
,cear integrity as your coat of
mail"
Once DR.. Moffatts weakness
becomes a strength. His news
paper English is memorable in
it's vigor:
BE angry. but do not sin;
Herer let the sun set upon your
e,caSperdti0n: gire the derH no
chance"
The best of all is the transla-
ton of Pauls famous hymn Of
love, itself the greatest miracle
of Christianity. There is hardly
line in DR., Moffatts version
which is not new. Every phrase
is a new text for the preacher, a
new, inperishable idea for us all.
Here is a lovely account of the
exploits of love:

w THEN all is said and done,
" the Bible remains the
newest and most inter
esting volume in all the litera-
ture of the world. It's truths are
older than protoplasm, yet its
thoughts are forever fresh with
the freshness of the morning. And
new" New Testament is an
event.
The latest is published by Hold
der & Stoughton, of New York
and London. From the mechan-
ical point of view it is perfect.
The new" Testament is en-
tirely new. 1t is the work of an
Oxford scholar DR.. James Moi
fatt, famous in all the Christian
world. 1t is his own work. He is
under obligation to no church or
society or committee. He Is in
dependent of other minds except
as the greatest scholars and
thinkers build upon the labors of
earlier generations.
He has sought to translate the
New Testament into the language
of our day. He is not the first to
do this, The Twentieth Century
New Testament came into en-
istence with the avowed object of
speaking colloquial English. DR.
Weymouth's admirable transla-
ton, THE New Testament in
Modern Speech" finely bears out
the purpose set forth in its title.
DR., Moffatt says of his own work:
II have attempted to translate the
New Testament exactly as one
would render any piece of con-
temporary Hellenistic prose" He
knows that to do this Is TO chal-
lenge in every line the ryhthm
and dicuon OF an English classic"
and to irritate many to whom the
very sound OF Bible phrases is 4
sacred thing. But he believes
that the work is worth doing. He
is right
1t is perfectly true that such a
translation is heavily handi-
capped in competition with the
stately splendor of the Bible lam
guage we know so Well But the
fact is that We are so familiar
with 1t that out OF familiarity
have been bred fogs of deadly
dizziness. \ British scholar writ
ing before DR.. Moffatt's volume

shock the reader out Of that

Certainly she could have done
nothing to secure her own peace
of mind in keeping the other two
apart, and binding to her man
WHO would hate her more and
more for standing in the path of
his desire.
The only dignified and rational
way to deal with a recreant hus-
band is as this woman has done,
and as a Kansas woman did, who
went to her husbands affinity
and said to her, For 1880 I'll
give you a quitclaim to John. It's
about s12.S5 more than he's
worth, and I feel that will be
cheating you in taking it, still II
you fancy him!"-
OF course, the woman who
hangs on to a man after hes
deadly weary of her and wants
to be rid of her always claims
that she does so because she be-
lieves she can win back his love,
No woman in the world is fool
ish enough to really believe this.
She knows that of all deadsthings
nothing is go absolutely dead as
dead love. For it there is no res
direction day.
Once the charm and illusion
that a woman has had for a man
is gone, it can never be conjured
up again, any more than you can
turn the shattered rose back into
bud again.
1t Is, of course, very, very sad
when a husband ceases to love
his wife, but when it happens she
can not alter the catastrophe by
hanging on to him. She only
makes a bad matter worse by so
doing. and she can save her face,
as the Chinese say, if not her

a Wife Would Be
Willing to Give Her
Husband AWAY.

Up to this present moment
there has been a tradition that no
matter how lazy, and trifiing, anu
drunken, and disagreeable a hus-
band was, if he deserted his wife
she should bemoan her lot in
sackcloth and ashes, instead OF
getting up and rejoicing that she
was rid of a loafer that she had
to support or a brute that beat
her.
The truth is that many wife,
instead Of being broken hearted
at losing husband, would be
perfectly willing to hand him over
TO any other woman that would
take him. Hence, perhaps, the
philosophy with which the wife Of
the recreant husband meets his
sidestepping.

TINE art Of weighing has ex-
banded into a comprehen-
sive science and can no
longer be called a mere art.
Scales are made of metal. but
the set herein describe is not
made of anything. Scales are In
hourly use that can weigh a pen
cil-mark whose length is one
fourth of an inch; or a section
of hair of equal length. The
usual practice in weighing runs
from grains, ounces, pounds up
to tons, usually one ton, and then
up to fifty or more tons in rail-
road weighing, costing hundreds
and thousands of dollars.
Elementary Laws.
But humans would find It quite
difficult to make scales that
would weight millions, billions,
trillions, quadrillions, quintillions,
SeHIlillollS, septlliiohS, oSthiiohS
and nonillions of tol-s. or decil
lions. An instrument able to
weigh a decillion tons can now
be purchased for one cent-a pen
ell. The scales are not made OF
metal: instead a Sc. and fixed
specific speed is the next to all
powerful engine used. But it is
far more easy to run a locomo-.
tive or steamship without know
ing a single law of these COM
pick machines than to even at
tempt to use the speedscales
without knowing every minute
detail of every velocity law of
moving bodies.
Let street car start from rest
and keep moving faster and fas-
ter until its rate of motion is,
say. twenty miles per hour at the
end of one minute. If the speed
of the car increased uniformly
during the entire minute its aver
age speed is ten miles per hour,
because it started from rest and
increased to twenty miles per
hour. If a body moves during
one minute at wenty miles per
hour the distance traversed will
be speed multiplied by time or
twenty miles multiplied by one

This Woman Deserves a
Monument in Her
Honor.

| think that this woman de-
serves to have a monument built
in her honor for having set fine
example for other women in a
similar plight to follow, for in the
great crisis Of her life she dis
played not only courage, but san
ity.
Out of the wreck of her mar
riage she, at least, saved her self
respect as woman.
Her husbands love was gone,
and she let him go with it. She
was too fine and too proud to
keep the body after the soul Of
love had fled She refused to
hold by the chain of the law the
husband who had wearied Of her.
who found her society a bore, and
who loathed the very thought Of
her as wife.
She knew that he felt this way
toward her and that every thing
that made their marriage holy
and right had vanished, and so
with her own hand she opened the
door of the home that had become
a hated prison house to him, and
let him go his way in peace.
There were the three of them
all miserable-the woman her
husband loved, and who loved
him: her husband loving another
woman, and tied to her; and she
still loving the man who loved her
no longer.
1t was in her power to make
two of the three happy, and she
did it, and, perhaps, in so doing
did the best thing she could to
secure her own happiness, since
happiness is so often found in I'M
selfishness.

Wonderful Machine.

Then Atwood invented his
machine and this finally came to
some near approach to accuracy.
But this instrument of precision
fell far short of the electrical
chronographic apparatus. When
all of this very complex mech
anism is in perfect order it re-
leases the ball at the exact begin
ming of second and records the
absolute time on the cylinder of
a chronograph electrically and
repeats the process at the abso-
lutte end of the second so far as
human hands are able to do rig
idly accurate work.

men, Newton and Liebnitz, dis
covered that mighty power be-
side which all else human pales

mediately that one of Natures
