As far back as the Seventh century portions of the Vulgate were translated into English, and the early versions by Wyclif and his predecessors, by Pur vey and others, were, translations from the Vulgate. Tyndale used Luther's German translation of the Greek Bible. Tho authorized version of King James was made by forty-seven scholars and finished in 1011; the manuscripts, so far as accessible, were consulted, the trans lators not restricting themselves to the Vulgate, but going to the Hebrew and Greek whenever they could. Pittaburg Dispatch, A "Cliarttcter" in France. Recently a Freuch gentleman, reply ing to an inquiry by a lady concerning the character and qualifications of a woman who had applied to her for the position of cook, and who had lately been in the gentleman's service, said that he could not recommend tho applicant; that she was "extravagant, impertinent and somewhat given to drink." The lady gave the letter to the applicant for the cook's position.who immediately brought suit for damages against the writer. The cuse was decided against tho writ er of the letter, who was lined and ad monished that he had no right to give circulation to injurious statements con cerning another person, even if the charges were true. In order to evade the responsibility thus introduced in French law house keepers have taken to issuing such "rec ommendations" as this: "This certifies that Mme. Hortense, late nurse to iny son, aged one year, did not leave hiin on a bench at the Jardin des Plantes and go away and forget him on the 20th of August lost." The certificate is intended to be taken in a contrary sense, and serves Its pur pose without laying the writer open to suit foT damages. Youth's Companion. A Problem. Once there were two tramps who were actually looking for work. In the course of their wanderings they came upon a pile of coal in front of a palatial resi dence. Said the tramp with the inferior intel lect, "Let us engage ourselves to stow away this fuel at a price of twenty-five cents." "Nay, nay," said the tramp of superior intellect; "let me go within and negotiate." And he did negotiate and secured the job at a rate of fifty cents, of which sum he gave one-half to his companion to perform the necessary manual labor, re serving one-half unto himself for super intending operations. Whereat he of the inferior business ability, though he had received twice the amount of work he expected and at his own rato of compensation, lifted up his voice in wrath and swore by various deities that he had been bunkoed. Was ho right? Indianapolis Journal. What Men and Women Tell. There iB one radical difference between men and women that "it may bo said generally of novelists, that men know inoro than they tell, and women toll more than they know." It may bo true of novelists. In real lifo neither tells all he or she knows, and the difference shows in what they keep. A woman tells tho thing that is not vital. She will toll eomo one almost every dcttiil of her daily life, but let her have a heart story, and hlio hot only keen it locked iu, but she hvt s as though it had no existence.

Sleight of Hand rolionlng. A very curious item in toxioological lore I chanced to light upon may be called the feat of poisoning by sleight of hand. You wore jealous of a lady and you wished to kill her. Well, you asked her to lunch, and you caused a very nice peach to be served at dessert. You cut the fruit with a golden knife, one side of the blade of which was endued with a deadly poison. You presented the poisoned half of the peach to the lady, who ate it with much relish and then dropped down dead. The wholesome half you ate yourself, and laughed in your sleeve, and went ou slicing more peaches for the ladies of whom you were jealous till you were found out and broken on the wheel. Aye, there's the rub! What high old times we might have, to be sure, but for that plaguey contingency of being found out. G. A. Sal a in London Sunday Times. A Bowery Sign. A Bowery sign which has added to the gayety of the travelers on the Third avenue elevated for some weeks has re cently disappeared. Wen forgot busi ness and politics for a brief moment while contemplating it, and careworn women eased their burdens long enough to smile as they were whirled past it. It was large and lurid, telling in big letters that within the first convention of "Lady Pie Eaters" was in set sion, three gayly dressed females, nearly life sizo, with abbreviated skirts and French gaiters and each holding a huge triangle of pie, illustrating the type of members. Fur ther than this their identity was not established. New York Times. Looking glasses of polished bronze or silver were a necessary adjunct to the toilet in ancient as well as inoderu times.
