The eastern origin of this tale seems
evident had it been originally com
posed in n northern land, it is proba-
BILE that king would have been repre-
sented as dethroned by means of
brides obtained from his own treasury.
In an eastern country the story-teller
who invented such just termination
to his narrative would, most likely,
have experienced the fate intended for
his hero, as warning to others how
they suggested such reasonable ideas.
Herr Simrock, however, says it is a
German tale but it may have had its
origin in the East for all that; Moth
ing is more difficult, indeed, than to
trace a popular tale to its source
Cinderella, for example, belongs to
nearly all nations even among the
Chinese, people SO different to al
European nations, there is a popula.
story which read almost exactly lik'
it. Here is the tale of the Three Wish

esting to our readers to know that
fruit trees in this region have escaped
the perils of winter unframed, and
never, perhaps, at this season of the
year presented more promising APP
pearance. This is articularly true
in reference to the various kinds of
stone fruit The protracted autumn
ripened the wood of the peach trees
very perfectly, the buds are in fine con
dition, and the bloom will be most
profuse. Grape vines, also, make no
exception to the general promise of a
fruitful season, if the spring shall
prove as favorable as the winter has
been. - Worcester SpV
