SOFT BAKED APosTLRs.-The following is
good story told of an artist in ornamental
glass:
In one of the Eastern cities an artist in
ornamental glass was preparing pictures of
three or four Apostles, for an oriel window of
@ church in aourishing Western city. He
had just taken them from his furnace, and
was showing them to some of the vestry.-
Don't say anything about it, said he, for
it wouldn't be noticed by one person out Of
hundred, but I don't mind telling you in con-
fdenee Saint Peter is little cracked in
the head he was too soft in the upper end /;
but 'ny got q frst-rato bake on Paul; Saint
John, though, isn't more than half baked I;
I'll have to bake another John. But d you
ever zee better baked Paul?' His remarks
were entirely professional, nor had he ths
most remote idea of there being double
meaning in anything he was saying"
