The BEARDED LADy.-The Alta
gives the following history of the bear
ded lady on exhibition in San Fran
cisco:
We have amongst US now an Ameri-
can lady, scarcely thirty years old,
who was astounded about four years
ago, with handsome set of whiskers
and delicate moustaches, which sprang
from her face, as it were, like Jonah S
gourd in single night. Her history,
in brief, is this: Born Ill kentucky,
she .emigrated tie Iowa; crossed the
plains as early as 1916, and settled in
Oregon, where in due time married,
and became the mother Of three chill
dren, all Of whom are now living in
that State. At the age of twenty SIX
she gave birth to the last. Up to this
time her face had been as smooth as an
infants. But Immediately after the
youngest child'was born, hair cemmen-
eed sprouting. She cut it of, plucked
it out by the roots, but all to no pur-
pose. 1t would and did grow, until a
luxuriant hirsute suit covered her
cheeks and upper lip. The family be-
ing poor, it was suggested to her that
she might, by exhibiting herself in
public, be enabled to materially aid
them and herself.

A BEAUTIFUL LEGEND. We find
in sermon Of Theodore Parker the
following Story. The subject of his
discourse was rest"
They tell a story that one day Rab-
bi Judah and his brethren, the seven
pillars of wisdom, sat in the court of
the temple, one fast day, disputing
about rest. One said it was to have
attained sufficient wealth, vet without
sin. The second said that il was fame
and the praise Of all men. The third
that it was possession Of power to rule
the State. The fourth that it consist
ed only of a happy home. The fifth,
that it must be only in the old age of
one who is powerful, rich, famous, sur
rounded by children and children's
children. The sixth said that all were
vain, unless a man kept all the ritual
of Moses-And Rabbi Judah, the ven
cradle, the tallest Of the brothers said:
Ye have spoken wisely, but one
thing is more necessary. He only can
find rest who to all things addeth this
that he keep the traditions of the
elders.
There sat in the court a fair haired
boy, playing with lilies in his lap;
hearing the talk he dropped them in
astonishment from his hands and look
ed up-that boy of twelye-and said:
Nay, nay, fathers, he only can find
rest who loves his brother as himself,
and God with his whole heart and soul.
He is greater than fame, wealth and
power; happier than a happy home
without it; better than honored age; he
is law to himself, above all tradition.
The doctors were astonished. They
said
when Christ cometh shall he tell us
greater things!' And they thanked
God, for they said-The old men are
not always wise. Yet God be praised
that out of the mouth Of that young
sucking has His praise become per-
fected.
