Book Will Be by Far the Largest Volume That Has Ever Been Con. structed—Definite Purpone in Its Production. English Bible plans for 1921 center around the production of the world's l:i ,, 5 , 'st Bible, notes the Uorllund Ore goniaii. Months of work have already been expended upon it. Many weeks more will be needed for ils completion. Already. however, the frame of the great hook Is In being. Six stout hempen .opes, inticli tlrcker than the ordinary clothesline, are ils backbone. Four of itiese are laced into millboards halt! an inch thick as a foundation for Hie leal her covering. The back of the hook is sewed with iwine round (he six siout hempen ropes in the old fashioned way. In every sense the biggest Ilible Is intended to be the finest example of book making that England can pro

dure.

Bui why produce the biggest Bible? Tlie answer to this question was given by the "Bilde Crusade” ns follows: “The great Bible Is Intended \o rivet public attention on the primary importance of the Bible as the fountain and source of Dll truth. As this unique volume is magnified in size above all other volumes, so the grandeur of the Bible ought to he magnified in value above that of ail other books.” A feature of the great Bible is that Ii will he written entirely by hand. Not more than three verses of the text will be written by the same person. Kings and field marshals will, side by side with paupers ami workmen, testify their belief in the Indy srriptnres. At the side of the piece of texr which they write all will sign their names to the following: “As my testimony Hint I acknowledge the Bible- as oHglnally given to mankind—to he ‘as it is in truth, thy »nrd of God.’ I append my signature." The higgesi Bible, when completed, will not only be the largest example of the word of God, but it will constitute the world's completest autograph al

When Vaseline Was Valuable. About three thousand barrels of oi! have been obtained from tbe various wells experimentally bored by tbe Brit Isb government in Derbyshire (Eng.) and elsewhere. It is not a great deal. In fact, considerably more than this must have been yielded altogether bj the famous Balm well, situated at St. Catherine's near Edinburgh, which during several centuries exuded a sub stance we now know io have been genuine perrolemu. No one ever seems to have thought of refining the crude oi! and using it for illuminating purposes;* but It was in great repute as a remedy for skin complaints, and people so afflicted came from far and near to obtain supplies of It. Especially esteemed was the solidifled |ietroleum which was scrapexj from inside the well near the bottom, and which used to be retailed, under the name of Balm of Sinai, for as much as a sovereign an ounce. Today one can buy an ounce of the same sort ol sniff—vaseline—from any chemist for a few cents.
