1t behooves every citizen in city,
town and country to keep posted on
the stirring evenls that will occur in
this county and in the old world
within the next nine months. The
results will affect all, personally,
directly or indirectly. This nation
is on the eve of the most exciting
presidential campaign in its history,
European politics are in very COM
plicated state, and scientists are
applying their discoveries to many
lines that will produce startlingly
new things. To keep abreast with
the world one should read, in ad-
dition to the local or county paper,
a live metropolitan newspaper, such
as the Twice-a-Week Republic of st.
Louis. 1t is the most progressive
journal in the United States, and in
each issue is gives the latest political
news of all parties in the field, the
latest general news of the world and
many valuable special features be-
sides. This model newspaper is
delivered twice-aweek by mail for
only 81 year, or less than one-cent
a copy. The price of the daily and
Sunday Republic has recently been
reduced to only So a wear bv mail.

She Wanted Pink Checks.

There is girl ON the North Side who
admires pink cheeks, but she will be
careful after this where she gets them.
On a recent afternoon one of the carettes
was being logged over the holes in the
pavement of Rush street. At Huron
street the wagon was stopped, and a
young woman stepped in and took a
seat near the center Of the car. She
knew several of the women, and return
ed their bows. She was a pretty girl,
fashionably gowned, and was on her
way to public rehearsal After sitting
quietly for few minutes, she, in an
apparently unconscious manner, put her
hand to her cheek and gave it slight
pinch. On her hands were black gloves
The day was damp and the slightest
trace possible of the color was left on
her cheek. Then she pinched the other
one. A black spot showed. This she
continued until Adams street was reach
ed, and never woman spoke. When
she reached the Auditorium, her cheeks
were a good color, but not what she ex-
pected. Chicago Chronicle.

A Capt,ve pa,,oop.

The principal danger in captive work
is the always present possibility of the
wire rope parting, not because Of the
obvious result that the balloon, being
set free, would at once make off at speed,
but for reasons of a very simple technical
nature, albeit none the more pleasant by
reason of their simplicity. It must be
understood that when a captive balloon
has been sent up the required height, the
neck Of the balloon has to be tied up so
as to prevent the wind from exerting a
pressure ON the envelope and forcing
out the gas, which would result in the
balloon very shortly losing its lifting
power and descending. In free runs the
neck must always be wide open, for
otherwise any sudden expansion of gas
might burst the balloon, Hence II q
captive breaks away 1t is bound to make
an unduly rapid ascent. since it is sud-
, denly released from the restraint as we'll
as the weight of the wire rope.
OF course in such an emergency the
gas would at once commence to expand
furiously, aud unless the neck Of the
balloon were instantly opened and kept
open the envelope would inevitably
burst. In the Shocking accident at the
Crystal palace in 1892, when poor Dale
and his comrades lost their lives, the
balloon was started with too much lift
and commenced to rise with undue ra-
pidity. Dale, the aeronaut, realizing the
danger, opened the neck and in his anx-
iety to see that IL was clear looked into

WHO CINDERELLA REALLY WAS.
Her Story Il Very Ancient and Appears
In Sacred Hindoo Books.


In Sacred Hindoo Books.
The story Of Cinderella is substantial
ly the same as 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 "pantouhe en-
vair" Ga fur slippery, and not zen
verre.
This, at all events, is what is claimed
by Perrault in his "Contes do Fees"
Both these stories have doubt less com
mon origin, but it is necessary TO go
further back in the history of the litera-
ture to find tito people who lived in
q period compared with which that Of
even Elan 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 tho form Of a feecy cloud,
which had borne her aloft when she left
the regions Of darkness The sum- 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. London

This odd scene continued for some
moments, the actors being four or five
black men, two white men, pony, sew
en- live donkeys and dead one, and the
lion standing over the latter, with fire
partly lighting up the figures, until a
couple more donkeys broke loose. They
rushed into mealie field, and there the
party heard the lion chasing first one
donkey and then another, as excited and
as little afraid as dog chasing rabbits

two did not 10 far. There were presently

tening q string to the trigger, which the
lion struck when revisiting its "kill. "
