Lateit U. S. Gov't Report r-l ADClinrELV ONCE IN THE BIBLE. Caivful emrrb Nbaw IllstlaRarlsa and ( iiHoordauMS In Krrar, A ininiiitor in JVorth Carolina and anotbor. and abto a Bible teaclter in Kentucky, have been puzzled over this query, "The word 'its' is found only once in the Bible wheref They ays "Will you please toll us where! We have failed to find it." It is not remarkable tbat a minister of expe rience should fail to find the answer to tit's query. The word "its" is not found in the best concordance of the Bible, such as Cruden's and Young's. Moreover, Worcester's larger dictionary quotes the statement of Trench, "Through the whole of our authorised version of the Biblo 'its' does not once occur. Although Worcester corrects an error of Trench in respect to the tine of the word "its" by Bhakespeare and Mil ton, ho does not correct the state ment in reapect to the use of the word In theauthorised version of the Bible. Webster's Unabridged Dictionary also says, "The possessive form, Its,' Is modern, being rarely found in Shakespeare and Milton, and not at all in King James' version of the Bible." The same statement is re peated in Webster's new Interna tional Dictionary, word for word. Dr. Angus, in his "Handbook of the English Tonfrue," also says: " 'Its' is a recent form in English. It is sel dom found In Shakespeare and never In sacred Scripture." The statement of the revisers of the English Biblo in their preface is more precise. They say: "It is well known that 'ita' does not occur in the Bible of 1611, and it does not appear to have been introduced into any edi tion before 1660. But it is found 10 times in Bliakespeare, and there is other evidence to show tbat at the titno of the authorised version it was ooming into use." Now, if our North Carolina minis ter and other renders of the author ised version of the Bible will turn to Leviticus xxv, 5, they will find the following: "That which groweth of Its own accord of thy harvest thou shalt not reap." The word "ita" ia therefore found in the current version of our English Biblo, notwithstanding the state ment of Worcester, Webster and other authorities to the contrary. Moreover, the wonl appears in vari ous editions, as those of the Ameri can Biblo society, the Oxford and Cambridge Press issues, the Collins Bibles, Eyre and Spottiswoode's, Bagste s and all the editions of fam ily an.l pulpit Bibles consulted for this purpose. Sunday School World. Lard Tcnnjrtoa as a Carpet Clemsrr- Tennyson appeared once in the new character of carpet cleaner. Calling on some friends and finding them absent he wrote theui a polite note, but had the misfortune to overturn the ink bottlo upon the beautiful white Persian carpot Frantic, he appealed for help to tho servant. She, suddenly recollecting that new milk will remove ink when wet, seized a can of tho creamy liquid which hap pened to have been just left by the milkman. She upset the can on the large black pool and set about rub bing and scrubbing the stain. Down wont Tennyson on his hands and knees, rubbing and scrubbing also, in an ni;ony of suspense lest his friends should return, which he after ward said "reached the infinite." Evory trace of ink waa removed, and the servant was rewarded with a 8-shilling piece and the poet's "God bless yon I" London Tit-Bits. The funny lltine, A most unpleasant sensation 1b caused by the violent excitation of tho ulnar nerve due to a blow on the elbow. Thin nerve passes down on the uinor aido of the arm, and then rathor inconsiderately bends round and enters tho forearm at the back of the elbow joint. Any one who ha folt his neighbor's elbow sticking into his ribs knows that the elbow is re markably deficient in flesh. The nerve is therefore at this point very near the surface and has little to shield it from a blow. If we are so unfortunate aa to give our elbow a smart tap, we obtain a practical con Bnnation of the fact that the uluar nerve is the principal sensory nerve of the forearm and band. Toronto Mail. ' Odd Commfint. One who gives public or private rotdtationa is certain to bear remark able comments on his work. Most people wish for something emotional and dramatic, where the color is laid on with a heavy brush and sonti ment ia rampant, "I hke to bo curdled," said a great lady to me one day, "I like that piece about a child being run over by a train.

There is an anecdote of Dr. Russell, the famous war correspondent The most unenviable position in which he ever found himself was not in battle, but in bed. As the story runs, the correspondent was on the way to India with the Prince of Wales and stopped at the palace in Athena. The king made an appointment with nun for an early walk. Dr. Russell nar rates: "I went ud stairs to bed. I couldn't sleep. The mosquitoes bit me to their hearts content, particu larly about the hands and anna. I happened to have a pair of long white kid gloves in my bag. I got up and iut them on. I awoke In the morn ag with the knowledge of having somebody by my bedside. It was the king, accompanied by his big dog. It was 8:30 1 Isatupinbed. 'In half an hour, Mr. Russell,' said the king, smiling as he left the room, 1 shall come back for you,' At breakfast that morning, during a moment of silence, the king, addressing the queen, with a sly glance in my direc tion, said: 'WeU, I've met a great many dandies in my time, but Mr. Russell beats them all. He actually sleeps in white kid gloves."1 ' - Bow th Saltan's rood I PrcpanA. The food for the sultan of Turkey is cooked by one man and his assist ants, and no others touch it It is cooked in silver vessels, and, when done, each kettle is sealed by a sup of paper and a stamp, and this is broken m the presence ol tne sultan by the high chamberlain, who takes one spoonful from each separate ket tle before the sultan tastes it This is to guard against poison. The sultan never uses a plate. He rarely usee a knife or fork a spoon, his bread, a pancake or fingers are far handier. It requires just twice as many slaves as there are courses to serve a dinner to him. Woman's World. Railroad English. Slang expressions generally origi nate with the railroad men, and a person not versed in slang might listen to a crowd of railroad men talking for an hour without getting the slightest impression of their meauiug. Consequently, when an Atchison girl received the following letter from her Apollo, a brakeman, she was somewhat puzzled: "My dear, I pushed tie con's face yester day, and he told the supe, who put me on the carpet and finally put the can to me. I will have to lay over on the hill for 10 days and will be down to see you soon." Atchison Globe. Tha Advantages of Dead Pears.
