NOTHING BIG ENOUGH FOR HIM.

John Kelley, a Cleveland barber, is
something of a celebrity. He had to
stop buying ready-madc clothes
when he was 10 years old because
he had outgrewn the largest size. He
can scarcely buy anything ready
made. His shoes have to be IL IL
in size on an extra wide last. He
wears a shirt larger than II and no
collars made in stock sizes are big
enough. He can wear n va hat,
but he would rather have mi 10 1-2.
Kelley grew almost to 7 feet before
he stopped growing. He was once
induced to Join y circus, hut the life
did not appeal to him, and after ;
weeks as a museum freak he went
back to barbering, and has been a
barber ever since.
