Getting typographical errors out of dlctlonaries is a task beside which that little Augean stable affair of Her cules was an aftcmoon snap. When the Oxford edition of the Bible was publisher the proofs were read and reread ten times. Then a reward of $250 was offered to any one whe should find a typographical blunder. One was found in the first chapter of Genesis. Dictionary proofreading is even more difiìcult than Bible proof reading. There ls a tradition that a man who read proofs of the Lord's Frayer for that Oxford edition went insane out of fear lest he made a blunder in it.— Philadelphia Ledgnr.
