She Wanted Pink Cheelks.

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 q
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 q pretty girl,
fashionably gowned, and was ON her
way to public rehearsal After sitting
quietly for a 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.

DANGER IN EARLY RISING.
A Doctors Theory That tho Habit Helps
to Make People Insane.

A Doctors Theory That tho Habit Helps
to Make People Insane.
DIR. Selden II. Talcott, the medical
superintendent of the Middletown State
Insane asylum recently, started the the
DRY that nothing conduced SO much to
insanity as early rising.
In proof of his assertion DR.. Talcott
calls attention to the relative frequency
with which farmers, their wives, sons
and daughters become insane. The cause
of this has hitherto been thought to be
their isolated lives, their hard work and
perhaps the excessive use of pie and po-
tatoes.
On the other side, it has always
seemed TO Dr.. Talcott and other eminent
alienists that there must be some other
deep seated cause Of insanity among the
farming classes than pie and potatoes.
Farmers have always pure, fresh air in
abundance, which city folk seldom have ;
they are less liable to mental and nerv-
Gus strain than city folk and also less
liable to infectious diseases and the bad
effects of alcohol
DR.. Talcott's view, after q careful
consideration of the advantages and dis
advantages of farming life as predis-
posing cause of insanity, is that it is the
excessively early hours of rising which
increase insanity in the rural districts
out of proportion to the urban and SUBJ
urban rate. He thinks growing chill

Tho report of the state commission in
lunacy shows that during the year end
ing Sept. 80, 1894, $40 farmers, gar
'deners and herdsmen were committed in
New York state as lunatics. This is a
larger number than in any other class
except laborers, of whom there were COZ
commitments.
As against these large classes there
were only 81 members of the profess
SIGNAL classes committed, including
clergy. military and naval officers, art
lists, authors, civil engineers and survey
ors. There were only 40 men committed
out OF the large class of walters, cooks,
servants, miners and seamen. The class
OF male teachers, students, housekeep-
ers and nurses gave only 23.-New York

WHO CINDERELLA REALLY WAS.

Her Story IL Very Ancient and Appear
In Sacred Hindoo Books.
The story Of Cinderella is substantial
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
Psamnitichus, king Of Egypt, who. like
Cinderella's prince, was struck by its
diininutive 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 "pantoufle 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 o COM
mon origin, but it is necessary to 60
further back in the history Of the litera-
ture to find ito a people who lived in
a 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, il
will not be surprising to learn that Gin
derella is a 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
q 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 q token of hel
visit in the form Of a fleecy 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 moi
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.-Londor

he lived apart from men and studied ma

lived in day when the press was small,
of little influence and servile. In his

news pages are glanced at, and attention
is bestowed Gu the contents that exhibit
deliberation, research and scholarship.
There is as good writing and as pur-
poseful and helpful writing in the daily
papers today as there was in the maya
zines of the first half of our century be-
fore. Moreover, it is writing to some
purpose. It is not for mere display of
style, but to accomplish the betterment
of governments, of society, of institu-
lions and arts, to stimulate effort in
right causes, to encourage industry,
thrift, honor and content. The condition
of the world in our century without the
