Simon Peter!" den for nearly twenty centuries in an Egyptian tomb, part of vanished Gospel According to Peter has reappeared! Fresh, Buched by controversies, this is today the only such story by eyewitness of the Trial and Crucifixion of Jesus outside the le itself. Here are the words of the courageous Chief of the stles "I, Simon Peter!" A splendid translation of the ing words of this Gospel of Peter (and also the story of how astonishing parchment codex has been discovered) constis one of the twenty-seven separate and beautiful writings in NETEEN hundred years ago the fire of Christianity was suddenly kindled in the world. It blazed in the minds of men. So great was its force that rough men who were fishermen and shepherds as well as the s and scholars expressed in brilliant words what they felt. the end of the Post Apostolic period these writings were complete. ag could be added of equal value. Christian writings since then have led entirely on the first writings. Therefore what was put down at first by eyewitnesses and their friends constitutes probably the most precious sion of mankind. ay we do not have the sum total of those writings. Of the surviving gs the Bible contains many. But the Bible does not contain all that surThere are others. Some of these are called Apocryphal, which is the word for "Lost" or "Rejected" or "Hidden. se additional writings that survive which are authentic-even though re not in the Canon of the Bible are here published in beautiful translaa The Lost Books of the Bible. This includes the Apocryphal Scriptures, uch other material, such as the Original Apostles' Creed, the letters of and Pontius Pilate, and the recently discovered portion of the Gospel Dr. Frank Crane: "The publication of this book will do good because it takes away the veil of secrecy that has hidden for many years the act of the church in accepting certain Scriptures and rejecting others." Dr. Montague Rhodes James, Prov- There are revealed in these vivid pages the sources of many Christian traditions that are not found in the Bible. For example, churches today use as a symbol of Christ the letters I H. You will find the explanation of this mysterious symbol in the words of Barnabas on page 154 of this book. Another familiar expression of today is "rise like a phoenix from its ashes." You will find the original story of the phoenix bird on page 124, told by Clement. Clement was a disciple of Peter. His writing was included in an early canon, but was objected to in the Ninth Century because Clement spoke of worlds beyond the ocean! We call one of the creeds the Apostles' Creed because it is divided into twelve articles said to have been written by each Apostle. On page 20 you will find this explained in full, and the article that each Apostle is said to have written, is given after his name. Then turn the page and you will see this creed as it was originally-before it was changed after 600 A.D. Here also are the origins of countless stories concerning the birth of Mary, her marriage with Joseph, the budding of his rod, the nativity of Jesus, the miracles of his infancy, and his laboring with Joseph at the carpentry trade. In fact, the boyhood of Jesus is related in far more detail in tliese writings than in the Bible.

FRANK MOORE, Superintendent of the New Jersey Reformatory, at Rahway, since h, has recently published at the Reatory print-shop "A Study of the acter of the Offender, and Society's Toward Him," including besides ry suggestions for the betterment of riminal's condition. It reveals some esting side-lights of convict characTo many criminals crime is a form itertainment. Describing a choice men of this class, Dr. Moore obs: "Crime appealed to him because e fun there was in it. It was an ature that thrilled him, and it did oncern him how much any one else ed, so long as he had the fun that n it. The love of fun drove him to long as the going was good, and the certainty that he would sooner ter be caught was not sufficient to him." In proper apposition, the nal dislikes work: "Work interferes his self-indulgence. When he is ing he cannot be carousing; he can e out all night and be able to work his pep. He likes to loaf around, ext day. Work tires him. It takes at he may be on hand when things loing. Thus laziness becomes one e habits of his life. The thought of as a legitimate means of getting 'ure is not in his thinking. He loves and figures that by stealing he can enjoyment and still get other pleas " . Moore finds the bad young men come under his care in New Jersey hero-worshipers. Perusal of the f Jesse James so fired the blood of alf-baked youth that he took to the with a shotgun. The farmer whom ndertook to hold up proved the valorous of the two, and the budbandit landed in the Reformatory. unrepentant scamp boasted: "There anything we can't beat. All we to do is to put on a pair of gloves, then where are your finger-prints? are always just one jump ahead nything they can devise to beat is idea of being a superman, bolder braver than other men, fills them a conceit that breeds the belief that they can outwit other men. "They delight," says the Doctor, "to pose as braver, bolder, and shrewder than the rest of us, upon whom they look down as weaklings and simpletons, who do not know any better than to be fools enough to work for our living, and be decent." It is the hero-worship instinct that produces the gang leader. The type is proud of its craftiness and cunning and glories in its ability to deceive: "They count with pride the many times their smooth tongues have gotten them out of trouble" and "look upon themselves as wise guys, exceedingly cunning and able to get away even with murder." The writer thinks that in braggadocio there may be some saving element of character, but "the sly, furtive, sullen, stubborn offender presents an objective most difficult to capture; while the stubbornness that is concealed under "a smile, and by pleasant words," is a "hidden mine" that may explode any time "with serious consequences." be a concomitant of life behind the years of SAFE INVESTMENTS URING the entire history of D' Adair First Mortgage Invest ments, extending over a period of From this 61 years experience ONE would hardly expect laughter to "I have never they laugh much in prison-laugh at the least little thing out of the ordinary, at stupidities in others and at mistakes of the common sort. Mirth is considered a good quality. It does not seem to be such with the convict. Ingratitude is his ruling characteristic. known the real criminal to be thankful for anything that has ever been done for him," is Dr. Moore's conclusion, who finds "in the dark picture of the criminal world there is a type of violator who seems to be entirely without any moral nature at all," who "can no more live straight than one born without a palate can talk straight" and in whom "the instinct to do right seems to be wholly absent." They are "really moral imbeciles whom no treatment that has yet been discovered has ever been able to change." This sort of individual presents "a very difficult entity to deal with and, as a class, a very dangerous problem to society." How great and costly is this problem is seen from the fact cited by Dr. Moore that there are about 500,000 prisoners Guaranteed and Insurable against loss of Principal and Interest These bonds are guaranteed by Adair Realty & Trust Company. They can be insured against loss of principal and interest in one of the largest surety companies in America. And because, in addition, they offer a yield up to 612%, Adair Bonds are universally regarded as among the most desirable investments attainable..
