The Italian Cinderella.

THE CornhtU Magazine says: The We
netian version of Cinderella differs from
ours chiefly in the circumstance that the
heroine is cinder-wench in the palace of
the young King whom she eventually mar
ries. And this young gentleman, occa-
sionally coming into the kitchen to talk to
the Queen, his mother (who was model
housewife, if one may judge from her con-
slant presence in those regions, sees the
dirty, sordid-looking cinder-wench, and
takes violent dislike to her. The first
morning after the ball in which the beau
tlful stranger has enchanted all eyes the
King comes into the kitchen to talk over
the entertainment with the Queen, whom
he addresses as Sacred Majesty Mamma
And he goes into ecstasies about the love
illness and splendor of the unknown Prin-
cess. Cinderella, hearing all this, mutters
over and over again, as quickly as she car
utter the words: Giera-m5, giera-mi'
'Twas L, twas y. What's the matter
with YOU says the King, that you NUT
ter and humble and jabber, and no one
can make out a word you say? Mind the
hearth and hold your tongue dor After
the second ball the same thing happens.
But this time Cinderella speaks a little
more distinctly, and when the King de-
scribes the marvellous beauty and brillian-
cy of the unknown lady she says,
'Gtara-nas, giara-mt,' so as to be
heard and understood. Whats the
matter with you noao, you ugly scare
crow?' said the King, and he took
up the tongs and gave her rap on the
pate. But she kept on saying: ''Twas l.,
twas |. Yes, yes, twas l. Well,
said the King, shan't argue any more
with this ugly fright, for if did | should
kill her outright The slipper plays but a
small part in the Venetian Cinderella
1t is not made of glass, but of diamonds :;
and Cinderella does not lose it after the
ball, but throws it to the servants whom
| the King sets to watch her and discover
whittier she goes in order that while they are
scrambling for it she may get clear Off
His Majesty falls sick of love and disap-
| pOintment, takes to his bed and refuses
| food. For several days he will eat moth
| ing but at length he calls his Sacred
Majesty Mamma and says that if she
will make him bread-soup he thinks he
| can eat it. But she must prepare it with
her own hands, and let no one else touch
it. Above all, she is to take care that the
| cinder-wench does not come near the soup.
Sacred Majesty Mamma promises to do as
he desires She makes the soup and cooks
| it over the fire, watching all the while that
| the scare-crow of a cinder- wench does not
touch it. But for moment Her Majesty
! looks away from the saucepan, and in that
moment Cinderella drops into the soup
a diamond ring which the King had put
on her finger at the last ball. This Of
course leads to the discovery of the whole
story, and the missing diamond slipper is
fitted on to Cinderella's foot as an addi
tional confederation of her identity with
| the beautiful stranger"

The Number of Words i'm Use.

THE Pathological Congress had dis
cussiOn of yocabularies. From Mrs
Clark's concordance of Shakespeare with
the important omission of all verbs spelled
like nouns) by a similar process Prof.
Holden finds in Shakespeare's vocabulary
$4,000 words. Milton, in his poems, is
found to use II ,377 words; in his prose a
much greater number is probable. In the
English Bible there are only 1909 words,
exclusive OF proper names. In BoswOrth' s
Dictionary Of the Anglo Saxon" there are
1913 words; in DR.. John Camden Hot
tens Dictionary of Slang" 10000 words
Inc wide difference between most of these
estimates and those of the Hon. George p.
Marsh has called out. a letter from the
latter, in which he explains that he used
the word 'word'' in the sense in which all
phllologists would agree in employing it
d e., he took only the simple stem,
and not the infected forms. Thus. while
Prof. Holden counted lover, loveless and
lovely as three words, Mr.. Marsh counted
them as only one. Prof. Holden con-
cludes that vocabulary of 10000 words is
not unusual among writers.
