STORIES OF CARLYL?.

On one occasion Carlyle had been reading some of the Bible with a friend, says St. Andrew, and his vofte thrilled at the passage which tells how those who desecrated the temple with their buying and selling were driven
i with a scourge out of its prefcincts. Tlio 1 < per cent cxtrn qiinvtwl v Closing the book, he burst out in en-

to go back to my Maker."

ORIGIN OF THE WIG.
History of Every Nation Mentions Wics
Very Enrly.
The first wig mentioned in history was made out of a goat's skin and was worn by the daughter of Saul, king of Israel. The first artistic wigs were made in the south of Italy for the Gapiniens, who lived in Apulia, and were known for the luxuries of their toilet. These people were, they say, the first who painted their faces; this they did with the juice of strawberries. Xenophon relates that little Cyrus, when he visited Astyages, his grand-lather, whose eyes were framed in blue paint and who wore an enormous wig, threw himself on his knees and cried: "O, mother, what a beautiful Grandfather I have!" The Phoenician women, who were proud of their hair, having been ordered by their priests to offer it up on the altars dedicated to Venus after the death of Adonis, obeyed but with murmuring. Soon thev were consolcd by a Greek merchant who told them that he would give them the means of hiding their bald pates under luxuriant curls. In his chariot he had hundreds of wigs of all colors. Wigs were in vogue in Rome toward (he end of the republic, and so well made that, says Ovid, "No man could know if his wife had any hair at all before she had given him an opportunity of seizing her by the tresses." Teutonic peasants were the providers of blond hair for rich Roman princesses, who loved the contrast of its flaxen hue with their black eyes. They even had morning wigs, small and tightly curled, of any color, and kept the beautiful fair ones to receive their admirers at night. Messalina had 150 wigs to disguise herself.—Exchange.
A Spear Market.
A prominent officer of the army, whose son is in service at Jolo, has a letter from him to say that the Moros of Jolo have some good traits with which they should be credited. The spear market at JOlo is one of the institutions. Officers and men resort to it to buy spears and knives, the prices of which vary according to the demand. A Moro friend of the writing officer saw one morning that some traders were asking excessive prices, and nudged the officer to warn him not to buy. Encouraged by this act of kindness the officer gave the Moro §20 with which to go inland and buy knives that were of a described sort. The man left, and was gone for a considerable time. When he returned he surprised the officer who had confided in him by coming back at all and also by bringing back a supply of weapons larger and more curious than it would have been possible to buy with several times the money in the Jolo market. The officer who writes this story has a high opinion of Moro honesty and discretion.—New York Times.

H. C. Blenkner American liandoiies Adopts?.
At the United Service Museum, Whitehall, there will shortly be on view one of the new bandoliers which are about to be supplied to our troopa in South Africa. It is the invention of an American, and was worn by the American troops during the Cuban war,when its efficiency was tested with admirable results. It is not made of leather, but is woven through in one piece, and is of a soft, dust colored material, which is not affected by either heat or damp. In weight alone if offers considerable advantage over the present regulation belt, as it weighs only seven ounces, and being pliable and very easily adjusted, it is far more comfortable to wear, while the weight is more easily distributed. It can, if desirable, be worn as a waist belt.—Birmingham Post.
