ANECDOTES OF BEARDs.-Among the
curious anecdotes of boards, the oldest is
that told of the eminent John Mayo, a
painter, at the court Of Charles ",
whose beard was so long that he could
stand upon it; this cataract Of hair he
kept tied up with ribbons to his button
holes, St metimes christening it at the
Emperor's wish, opening the doors and
windows tina. it might blow into the ia
ces of angry courtiers.
Another famous beard was that of a
Bavarian merchant, who kept it enclosed
in velvet bag to prevent it from drag
ging on the ground.
An old writer, of more gravity we tear
than veraclty, asserts that the inhabi-
tants of Harndenburg had formerly the
singular custom ofelect;ng the Burgomas-
ter who had the longest beard and big
gest foot.
