Two centuries ago, says Notes and Queries, y
furs were SO rare and therefore so valuable, that
the wearing of them was restricted, BY several
sumptuary laws, to kings and princes. Sable, in
those laws was called caiY, and was the subject of
countless regulations; the exact quality to be worn
by persons of different grades, and the articles of
dress to which it might be applied. being defined
most strictly. Perrault's tale of Cinderella ORR
ginally marked the dignity conferred on her by the
fairy, by her wearing slipper of Dair privilege
then confined to the highest rank OF princesses An
error of the press, now become inyeterate changed

came converted into something much more brittle.
