KM i * Kipling's Verse Made Substitute for Bible The American army of occupation !&'(!?; Philippines used to linve u nong ? for! ileu by Washington ? In which one of the noisiest lines was "Civilize them will) tli? Krag," says London Answers. All that Is imw iinelent history', and the clvlllxutlon of the filmos hus long been aided by the lllbl,e and the grupltophone. It will ?loot, be the Bible nu<) radio. One Of ihe famous exponents of the Kriig fori? of civilization, Colonel Clo mail, dieu recently and has left behind a book of tuen.olrs published under the title yf "Myself and u li'ew Moron." It Is a "he man's book." Among other things It tells of the eolouel'8 visit to the miltunu of Sutu In the absence of her lord the sultan. The colonel hud to present his govern ment's compliments, and a grupho plionc i hut not merely played records, but made them. He was accompanied by the hl^h priest of Sulu, who acted as chaperon. The grnphopbone m.'de a grt-iii sensation, v.-ltlcli culminu;- \ when i lie priest recited Into It the Ih-st chapter of the Koran, and the witch Instrument repeated lone for ;one what the old man had ^uld. Not to be outdone In courtesy, the suUbnn thereupon lr.slsted that the colonel should recite Into the Instru ment the first chapter of Ills Koran, the Bible, so that she might play It over for the consolation of future guests from the land beyond the wnters. The colonel wns stumped for a mo ment. He severed Ills Bible at a dis tance. Yet he dared not hesltnte. Tne only thing he could recall was one of ?Kipling's. ballads, and this he Intoned with pll solemnity, rolling out the lines: , "I've taken my fun where I've found It; I've rogued an' I've ranged In my -time." The colonel snld the sultana wns Impressed, but he wondered ever since what the first missionary who came along said when the sullana let loose the grn'phophone to show hcrw famil iar she was with the religion of the Americans. ( Concerning the Bible Most persons think that the Bible was, first written exactly as It appears today. But such is not the, case. It svfts orlglnnlly one continuous piece of text, with no divisions of any kind ? no sections, no chapters, no verses, no divisions of words even, or punctu ation. its division into lines to suit 'the'^ehse was done by Euthullus of Alexandria In the Inst half of the Flftl* ?qCntury. Its division into chapters Is ascribed to two archbishops. Lanfranc, In the Kleventh century, and Lsngten, in the Thirteenth century, and a cardi nal, Hugo de Saucto Caro, about 1250. ISubbl Nathan began' the division of the Bihle Into sections about 1445. nnd another Hebrew, Atliras. completed the work In 1601. An English printer, Uobert Stephens, Introduced the pres ent division into verses In 1551. i. t ? > ; a ? ' Venus' Basket' Venus' basket is a glass-silk sponge which grows- in the tropical sbns of the Pacific, from the Fujiyama region to the Indian ocean. By the Jupanese it is called the mineral silk sponge, and is used for its liber, which Is woven into chemical liber cloths, into fireproof candlesticks and Into deli cate fireproof curtains. In Its natural state the glass- sponge Is covered with these lor.g silky fibers which are used In the arts referred to. A small tuft of these fibers covers the base. The specimens are raked up from the ocean bed, nnd the framework, which cannot be sepurated Into fiber tor weaving.

', Sacred Canon of Egyptians The Hermetic hooks was the name given to tiie sacred canon of the an ? clout Egyptians, consisting of 42 books, divided into six sections.- Tlic.v derive their name from their reputed at:tlior, Hermes Trismeglsttus, and are an encyclopedia of theology, religion, art:?*ni.d sciences. Their authorship und time of pro duction are alike unknown, but they nr.? supposed to have been written by Mg;. ytinn Neo-Plnlonists in the Fourth century after Christ. .lamolichus gives their auuiber as 20X00 and Manetho as 3I5.525. Accord ing to some of the ancients, Pythago ras and Plato derived all their knowl edge from these "Hermetic books," tin; Detroit News stales.
