The Apocrypha.

All the Old Testament apochrypha,
fourteen In number, have been trans
lated into English and are included as
apocryphal books In some editions Of
the Bible. They were formerly print
ed under distinctive heading between
the Old and the New Testaments, and
in that form can still be found In
many old family Bibles. They are
always included in the so-called Sep
tuagint, a version Of the Bible used by
the Greek church.

and when Chen Wing Yin, tracer in
Straits Settlements, after his return to
Kaping, his own village, proposed to

ton could hardly be carried out as
his villagers bitterly protested against

lessly done by many, without consid-

careless practice. We are constantly
reminded that many diseases are
caused from such habits. Let's

federal meat inspection is concerned,
he can do as he pleases-kill diseased
cattle II he wants to. and allow his
plant to be as filthy as suits hiS idea
Of convenience. Federal meat insIec-
ton applies only to plants whose prod

slaughter in one state and sell some
part of their products in other states.
Taking 1t the country over. about Is
per cent Of the beef consumed comes
from plants that sell wholly within
tire state where they are located and
that. therefore, cannot be reached BY
the inspectors Of the United States

A Mothers Three Reasons.
A woman recently appeared before
the city council Of San Diego, Cal.
and asked to be heard on the matter
Of local meat regulations. She told
the council there were three reasons
why she wanted to see nothing but
government inspected meat In San
Diego. Then she introduced her three
children to the council. She explained
that Uncle Sam demands federal In.

sailors. and that her children are jus,
