Barristsrs' Wigs.
The most recent portion of junior bar
rister's attire is the wig and has been add
ed In comparatively modern times In the
time of Charles II, when wigs were first
introduced from abroad, the military men
and barristers helped to set the fashion in
all questions Of male attire. They wore
wigs in court varying with the fashions Of
the hour, as long as wigs were worn, and
when the rest OF the world gave them up
at the end of the last century barristers
retained them and still do SO as distino-
tive part Of legal costume In 1866 peti-
ton was presented to King George III by
the master peruEe makers, alleging that
their trade Was falling OF, US wigs were
going out Of fashion, and that but for the
s'counselors9 (the old name for barristers)
they would soon have no customers. They
prayed his majesty to devise some relief.
The king returned gracious answer.
Some was, however. struck by the ludi.
orous side Of the petition, published boz
gus petition from the body carpenters Inn
ploring his majesty to wear a wooden leg
and to enjoin all his servants to appear in
the royal presence with the same graceful
decoration. The wigs now in use at the
bar are chiefly made Of goats hair, and are
ornalnented with three rows of little curls
going round the head and closely fastened
to the main structure and two little tails
behind, falling little below the collar
Until 30 years ago nearly all the bar wigs
were pomatumed and powdered, but this
fashion, for obvious reasons, has gradual
~ declined, and only a very few now favor
it.-Pau Mall Gazette.

SIMPLICITY IN CHRIST"
Mas the Text of Rev. Smilcy's
Sermon
At TUE FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
tinucd - M Services on sntur-
nS-Intcrcst Continues.

Mr. Smiley took as his text last evening
a, the First Presbyterian church, THE
Simplicity That is in Christ" II Corn-
thians, M j.
He said In part: Many seem TO think that
the gospel is a very complex system. They
look into the churches. the crccds and sys-
tens and are confused. They can't under
stand and harmoniae all these things After
all at the last analysis. we find Christ to
be the center of it all. Like a great Corliss
engine at the center Of Il great manuflc-
turing plant as the motor OF ii, all, so
Christ is the source OF all this truth and
life. But some one asks. why is 1t neces-
sary TO have a Saviour" The answer is one
word, sin. Sin is in the world and every
man has sinned. All have suffered the ef-
fects. Ono sin is enough to separate man
from his God. just as 1t was at the first
IN the garden OF Eden. Many sins widen
this breach. AS one starts in the innocency
of youth and companionship with God we
may, If we choose to, allow sins to accumu-
late, the distance OF our separation may in
crease until II becomes a vide gulf. There
can be no help for us unless God shall
come to our rescue. Now in the fullness
of time God sent forth His Son, At the
conclusion Of His life of suffering He says
lit Is finished" He satisfies the demand OF
Justice. He tasted death for us all He suf-
fered that we might live. This Is the sim
pie plan Of our salvation from the punish
ment for our sin. Now. IL we will accept
Him. this Christ will become our Saviour
AS the Father is satisfied With His Son,
so must we be satisfied with and In Him.
If you could but realize the holiness of
God, and the sinfulness of sin, and that
lie, therefore. demands OF us absolute holt
ness in life. you would tremble before His
nlshty power. But remember, also. that
christ lived your life. suffered your death
ana now by accepting the work He has
done, appropriating to yourself the efficacy
or HIS atonement you can be brought back
TO God and become an heir to eternal life.
In the afternoon MIR. Smiley lectured on
The Ideal Life" showing that living a
life In harmony with Gods WILL however
lowly that life was, was the noblcst that
could be lived on earth or in Heaven. IT
was an angelic life.
Tomorrow afternoon at $50 O'Clock Mr..
smiley VIII deliver his last day lecture.
and preach in the evening. There will be
no services on Saturday.
