Another well known passage in Ec
clesiastes becomes: “Remember also
thy Creator in the day* of thy youth or
ever tho evil day come or the years
draw nigh when thon shall say 1 have

here is “remember also” for “remem

the evil days come not.”
The substitution of modem words
for archaic expressions has only taken
place where the word tvas not only ob-

tuted for “Brigandine” in Jeremiah li..
3, where the Almighty promises to
raise an army against Babylon, “and
against him that lifteth himself up ic

trice” there is given ‘‘basilisk,” with
“adder” as the marginal alterna

pins,” mentioned in Isaiah iii., 22,

Rev. Dr. James Strong, of the Drew

regaiding the work of revision:
“The public arc chiefly interested

the opening chapters of Genesis. In

more accnrately, ‘and no plant of the

changed for the better English, *b
