WHO CINDERELLA REALLY WAS.

Her story II Very Ancient and Appear
In Sacred Hindoo Books.
The story Of Cinderella is substantial
" the same az that told Of Rhodopis
and Psammitichus by Elan, who lived
in Rome in the third century Of the
Christian era. The story, as told by
Elan, is that while Rhodopis was bath
ing, an eagle carried away one Of her
sandals and dropped it near the feet Of
Psammitichus, king of Egypt, who, like
Cinderella's prince, was struck by its
diminutive size, caused the maiden to
be sought for, and married her when
found. Make the sandal glass slipper
and add the ugly sisters for the sake Of
contrast, and the stories are much the
same. The glass slipper, by the way, is
an acknowledged fiction, being in real
ity mistranslation of "pantoufie en-
vair" "a fur slippery, and not zen
verre."
This, at all events, is what is claimed
by Perrault in his "Contes de Fees. ;"
Both these stories have doubtless COM
mon origin, but it is necessary to go
further back in the history of the litera-
ture to find tito a people who lived in
period compared with which that Of
even Elian is quite modern. 1t is in the
Vedas, the four sacred books Of the Hin
docs, that the origin is to be found.
After what has already been said, it
will not be surprising to learn that Gin
derella is dawn maiden, her sisters
being the powers of darkness, who
compel her TO wait upon them, keeping
her hidden from sight. The dawn maid
en- breaks from her bonds, and capti-
Yates the sun, remaining with him for
time. But she cannot linger with him
in the heavens; she can remain only
until certain hour. Once she fingers
too long. and, hurrying back, leaves on
the path she has taken token of her
visit in the form of feecy cloud,
which had borne her aloft when she left
the regions Of darkness. The sun, deter
mined to find her, sends out his ennis
saries (the rays Of light), but does not
find her until she appears before him as
the evening twilight. In the Vedas the
prince is called Mira, which is one Of
the names given to the sun.

Morning Service.
After breakfast nothing much happens
until the chapel hour. Now those pris-
oners who have "gone sick" are visited
by the surgeon or his assistant, and II
the cases are urgent are sent across to the
infirmary at once. There is no regular
cell inspection; the governor or his
deputy makes no round; there Is no
'taking Of reports, no adjudication Of
pains and penalties for misconduct. All
this will stand over until Monday; even
those awaiting punishment, unless 1t is
for outrageous acts of violence or de-
hance, turn out to 60 with their fellows
to chapel. About 0 80 the chapel bell
rings for the first service, that Of the
Roman Catholics, who, in large prisons
are usually "located" or lodged in one
part of the prison, near their own chapel.
The bell for the Church Of England serv-
ice follows at about 10 a. m.
Both on marching to chapel and when
seated within it the various GLASSES and
categories of prisoners are kept strictly
separate from each other. Males and fe-
males approach the chapel by different
roads, enter by different doors and oc-
cupy different divisions, pews or places
apart Among the males, too, the con-
victed are kept from the unconvicted
and the debtors from both. The women
are generally seated first, behind a
screen or within curtained off, rallied
in Enclosure. They are. Of course, visi-

Not the Place For the Soup.

A famous French prima donna when
acting delights in a big basin of soup,
smoking hot and we'll favored with
grated cheese. On,one occasion she was
engaged for few nights at Marseilles,
and her first thought ON arriving there
was to inquire where she could order her
favorite dish. She was recommended to
patronize a humble restaurant just by
the theater, and going there gave her
order in person.
At 9 O'Clock, as arranged, mine host
called his serving maid, and placing a
gigantic tureen in her hands told her to
take it to Nine. c. on the stage. He
added that orders had been given to let
her pass with her bowl, and on the
girls assurance that she would recognize
the cantatrice sent her off with the soup.
Everybody gave way before the servant
carrying the sacred meal of the star,
when suddenly between the wings she
caught sight Of the prima donna, who
was singing the finale of the first act Of
"Lucia. -
Bavenswood and his betrothed were
juas about to begin the passionate scene
which brings down the curtain when the
maid entered and placed the tureen on
the mossy bank in front Of the fountain.
Then lifting up the cover and plunging
in spoon she exclaimed to the stupe-
faction of actors and audience alike:
Begging your pardon for interrupt
ing you, sir, and the lady. but here's
the soup. London Tit-Bits.

WIND AND SEA

TIE sea = . jovial comrsde;
He laughs wherever he goes;
His merr1ment shines In the dimpling lines
That wrinkle his hale repose:
Ne lays himself down at the feet Of the sun,
And shakes all over with glee,
And the broad backed billows fall faint on the
shore
IN the mirth Of the mighty seal
But the wind is sad and restless
And cursed with an inward paint
You may hark at will, by valley or hin,
But you hear him still complain.
He walls on the barren mountains
And shrieks on the wintry sea;
He sobs In the cedar and means in the pine
And shudders all over the aspen tree.
Welcome are both their voices,
And know not which is best
The laughter that slips from oceans lips
Or the comfortless winds unrest
There's pang in all rejoicing,
A Joy in the heart Of pain,
And the wind that saddens, the sea that glad
dens,
Are singing the selfsame strain.
-Bayard Taylor.

In the last IL years Of Mr.. Starman's
ministry at Marlborough famous old
German Lutheran church no salary was
paid, the congregation being too poor.
Old Conrad Hyer, who, although 1Ol
years old, was as brisk as man of 30.
and had acted as chorister in this an
cient church for 80 years, reading and
singing from the fine print Of Watts
hymnbook without the use Of specta-
cles. Nothing remains on earth to mark
the sojourn of these men but the dilapi-

tall marble column in the cemetery
which tells the passing traveller that
there lie the remains Of the sainted
Ritz and Starman, pastors Of the Ger
