OLD TESTAMENT QUESTIONS [To the Editor of the SPECTATOR.]

Stn,— I should like to have added another to Miss Winnington_ Ingram's interesting Old Testament questions, and wonder how many students could answer this : Who mentions salt in connexion with an egg ?

I quoted the words that suggest this question some years ago to an embryo Suffragan Bishop, and asked him if he could place them. His answer was, " I cannot, but they sound like a verse from the Bible."—I am, Sir, &c:, C. M. K.

[The answer to this question appears on p. 34.--ED. Spectator.]
