Bible Printing Restricted

As Colonial MNew England rebelled against the tax on tea, so it must have writhed under the ancient law which gave to the crown a monopoly of the right to print the Bible, for the Iliterary tastes of. those hardy pioneers were distinetly relicious. But it was a law with teeth, for it is a matter of history that in 1537 a certain Richard Grafton was imprisoned until he gave bond of $5OO that he would print no more English Bibles until given permission to. do s 0 by the king. From that time the right to publish the English Bible was vested with certain printers who were connected with English universities.— Detroit News, : o

Virtue and Vice

- Dr. Will Durant says, “Every vice was once -a virtue and may become respectable again, just as hatred becomes respectable in wartime.” [low true is that?

The border cases, those Liabits which seem to be neither vices nor virtues, or to be both, are especially interesting.—New Orleans Item-Trib-une. o :

‘~ One Thing Man Can’t Make

Doctors in a Nova Scotia city removed the heart from a cat. - In its place they put a rubber heart, electrically operated. The artificial heart kept up the blood circulation for several hours, during which time the cat remained alive. Of eourse, the doctors could make a rubber heart work for a time. But a natural heart, of cat or man, is an engine that human genius can never duplicate or approximate.—Capper's Weekly. Ces

Peep at Valencia

The city of Valencia is on that won derful bit of Spanish. Mediterranean coast where the climate is so much more certain than that of the Italian Riviera or the French Cote d’Azur. I is curious that so many places in this district should be associated with *“des sert.” Valencia and Malaga raisins, Denia oranges, Barcelona nuts—they are all familiar to us.
