AN OLD RELIC.

A Vest That Has an Interesting History.
Judge John B. Perry is the possessor
of vest that has a history.
1t was made forty-eight years ago at
the home of Judge Perry's father in
McDutfie county by a tailor 70 years of
age.
The vest is of cotton, and was made
from bolt of cloth that was wove by
his great grand mother about 1880, or
one hundred ana fourteen years ago.
There were no gins in those days, and
the cotton from which the cloth was
made was picked from the seed with the
fingers.
The vest is in a state of good preser-
walton, and the style is pretty much the
same as is worn today.
Judge Perry prizes this relic of pio-
neer days in Georgia very highly.

A LITTLE TOO GRoTEsuUt.

The Rumor That MIR. Gladstone Was About
to "Enter the Church."
The story about Mr.. Gladstone's s sup
posed intention to enter the church at
the age of IS might be said to exhaust
the utmost capacity Of credulity. Mr..
Gladstone s renewed interest in theology
has been vigorously attested since his
retirement from public life by copious
writings on abstruse points of doctrine,
but the rumor about his taking or
ders'' is little too grotesque even for
the contents bills Of the evening papers.
There is certain attraction, how
ever, in the idea Of Mr.. Gladstone as
curate eclipsing his vicar and oyeraw-
ing the bishop of his diocese. To him
prefermenr ought to be rapid, and Ell
ther Lord Rosebery or Lord Salisbury
would be only too glad to make him
archbishop of Canterbury at the earliest

THE FALSE MUSCLE INDUSTRY.
Shapely Calves Made to Order For d
cyclists In Welsh Factories.

4
cyclists In Welsh Factories.
There is one department. of industry
which, by the general admission Of
those engaged in it, is exempt from the
stagnation which SO largely prevails.
Indeed it is in remarkably hourishing
state, and the men and women employ
ed at it are kept busy from morning to
night 1t is that which deals with the
supply Of artificial sinews and muscles
in order to give to limbs the plumpness
and symmetry which nature has denied.
The great demand at the present time
is for we'll shaped calves for the legs,
and for some time the puryeyors Of
these embellishments could not make
out why SO many Of them were wanted,
because the requirements of the ladies
of the ballet and burlesque actresses are
pretty much the same all the year
round, and there was nothing going on
to occasion AN unusual request for the
articles.
But they have now found out the rea-
son. They are required by lady cyclists
who wear knickerbookers, and who,
naturally enough, desire to exhibit to
mankind the limbs which are not COW
cred by these bulky garments in as
shapely and attractive form as posi-
bic. The stufing required for this pur-
pose must be Of the best kind, and it is
also necessary that the mold should be
we'll fitting; otherwise the lady cyclist
would become kind of scareorow on
wheels instead Of a thing Of beauty.
The articles, therefore, cost more than
the ordinary calves, and it may accord
ingly be said that the latest fashion
among women not only encourages cycle
making, but also aids the artistic up
holstery Of the human figure in the
highest form. Cardiff (Wales) Mail.

And His Nerve Was Rewarded With q
Liberal Shower of Wealth.
Here is good story from the London
Figaro:
IT happened the other night to be at
one Of the smaller theaters in the city
and witnessed toward the last act Of
the principal play a very amusing inci-
dent
"a slight impatience was shown
among the audience at the delay in rails
ing the curtain, and shortly the mana
ger appeared to announce that one Of
the actors had been taken i'll, which
necessitated his role being taken by a
substitute.
"Then the act commenced, but sud-
denly every one was startled by the ap-
pearance Of another character on the
stage, who Immediately began to ex-
plain himself as follows:
. They have deceived you. lam not
i'll, but they have not paid me, and as
] have not dined I was Of course unable
to fulfill my role.
"The public was at first stupefed,
but very soon acclaimed the actor, and
money literally rained on the stage.
Finally at the end Of several minutes
who probably had received
