Sparrow Neglected by
Translators of Bible
The sparrow may not be un exceed
ingly Important bird but it certainly
deserves better usage than it received
from the translators of what is known
as our Authorized Version of the Bible.
Its Hebrew name was tsippor, says a
writer in the Montreal Family Herald,
which occurs some thirty-two times in
the original, hut is translated sparrow
in only two places, F’saltn 84, 3: ‘‘Yea,
the sparrow hath found an house and
the swallow a place,” and I’salm 102:
7: ‘‘I am as a sparrow alone upon the j
house-top.” In other places it is set
down in our Bibles simply as a bird, j
What spirit of divination instructed j
King James' scholars to differentiate
between the “tsippors” in the two j
Psalms and the ‘‘tsippors” elsewhere J
no man may say, but so far as any- j
one has been informed it would ap- j
pear that the sparrow received less
than fair play at their hands, however!
wisely their choice was exercised in
some cases.
Generally faithful little mothers,
true to their task of rearing their
broods, are hen-sparrows, restless and
disconsolate when driven from their
eggs, as the nature-loving writer of j
Proverbs 27:8, notes, when seeking j
for a parallel to a man who finds him- ,
self out of his proper station in life:
“As a sparrow that wandereth from
her nest, so is a man that wandereth
from his place.”

She Had a Reason
A farm wife living near Bninbridge
usually drives to town In her car. One
day she had to look after some busi
ness at the lumber yard and on this
occasion she hitched the nog to the
buggy and drove to town.
The attendant at the lumber yard
noticed the change from the car to
the buggy and asked:
‘‘How does it happen you're driv
ing the old nag today?”
The farm wife replied:
“I have to drive the nag because
1 haven't the Jack to plunk down to
buy juice to run the old bus."—Ex

Legends Cluster About
World-Famous Pearls
Since the time of Cleopatra pearls
of great value have figured in ro
mantic as well ns commercial history.
I'llny records probably the two roost
famous, those that Cleopatra wore in
her ears, and It Is a well-remembered
story of how she dissolved one In
wine and drank it to win a wager
with Antony. In the Sixth century
the Peroz pearl was even then valued
as high ns $25,000. Charles the Bold
in the Fifteenth century owned an
other valuable and famous pearl,
while ranking with It were the
Tararequi and Oviedo pearls and the
celebrated‘‘La I’eregrinn” (the incom
parable) belonging to Philip II amt
which came from Panama. The pearls
of Mary Stuart, of Queen Elizabeth,
together with those of the great
moguls and shahs have their coun
terpart in such famous American
collections ns the Morgan-Tlffany and
the Gould pearls; nnother fnmoos
collection, the Van Buren pearls, a
gift from the Imam of Muscat, is ir»

Japanese Religion
It is impossible to give the precise
origin of the Shinto religion of Japan.
This is a mild form of ancestor wor
ship and lists 14,000 gods and has 13
sects. It appears to have been the
native religion of the early Japanese.
