mail advices state that Yehonala, EN-
press of China, will soon present the
Emperor with an heir. Court circles
and the Chinese reform party sincerely
hope II will be a male, thus providing
an heir in direct succession to the pres
ent Emperor. They believe the EN-
peror's reform policy will be gradually
carried out after the Empress Dowager
passes away. Her majesty is a cousin
of the Emperor, whom she married in
February, 1899. She has never oppos-
ed the Empress Dowager, thus living

THE FIRST WOMAN.
An Old Eastern Legend That Tells
How She Was Created.

How She Was Created.
The last section "Of a Finger of the
Moon Redeemed by the Setting Sun" in
the Sanscrit work called the "Surging
of the Ocean of Time" contains legend
commonly credited throughout India,
and which runs somewhat as follows:
At the beginning Of time, Twashtri, the
Vulcan Of Hindoo mythology, created
the world. But when he wished to
create woman he found he had en-
ployed all his materials in the creation
Of man. There did not remain one
solid element Then Twashtri, per-
picked, fell into profound meditation.
He reused himself to do as follows:
He took the lightness of the leaf and
the glance of the fawn, the gayety Of
the SUMS rays and tears of the mist,
the Inconsistency Of the wind, and the
timidity Of the hare, the vanity of the
peacock and the softness Of the down
on the throat OF the swallow, the
harshness of the diamond, the sweet
flavor Of honey, the cruelty of the tiger,
the warmth Of fire, the chill Of snow,
the chatter Of the jay and the cooling
Of the turtle dove. He melted all this
and formed woman. Then he made
present Of her to man. Eight days
later the man came to Twashtri and
said:
my lord, the creature you gave me
poisons my existence. She chatters
without rest, she takes all my time,
she laments for nothing at all and is al
ways ILL.," And Twashtri received the
woman again. But eight days later the
man came again to the god and said:
my lord, my life is very solitary
since returned this creature. l re-
member she danced before my singing
recall how she glanced at me from
the corner Of her eye, that she played
with me. chung to me-" And Twashtri
returned the woman to him. Three
days only passed and Twashtri saw the
man coming to him again.

stand exactly how, but I'm sure the
woman causes me more annoyance
than pleasure. beg of you relieve me
of her."
But Twashtri cried, go your way
and do your best!'
And the man cried, II cannot live
with herr
Neither can you live without her."
replied Twashtri.
And the man went sorrowfully away,
murmuring. Woe is me; can neither

CORN BREAD.
Foad RecoIIections of the Days Of

the HOecake and F1apjacks.
With good meal and cook following
the lessons and traditions of the old
regime delicious bread may be baked
of Indian meal. But we have grave
doubts whether it can be baked as well
in stove as in an open fireplace; but,
alas, of the latter only few remain.
The ashcake, of course, must have
ashes. They are Indispensable. AS
well try to produce a mint julep with
out mint. On the other hand, flap
jacks" need only well creased frying
pan, but skill is required to turn them.
That is done by pitching them out of
the pan into the air and making them
come down flap on the other side. The
corn pone may be cooked in a stove or
range.
The hoecake was originally cooked
on a hoe in the fields and in the negro
cabin. A skillet will do well enough
for it, but must be well creased at the
bottom. So, too, with respect to egg
the appliances of a range are admira-
bly, adapted to them.
We wish some millionaire would fit
up Virginia country home in ante
bellum style and among other things
have in it big open fireplace, black
cook in Bingham dress, with a red
bandanna ON her head, and also have
half acre mint bed. an icehouse and
an old time garden filed with raspber
ries and gooseberries, thyme, sage, cur
rants and all the ordinary table vege-
tables.
When one of those old time homes
and gardens and kitchens is restored
and the host and hostess have entered
into possession, we desire to be listed
as frequent guest, with reserved
seat in the chimney corner. Then all
we shall want will be the zest, the ap-
petite, the voraciousness we possessed
when we could eat eighteen rolls and
six eggs for breakfast and consume a
whole watermelon between meals. But,
alas, it would be easier to restore old
walls and open fireplaces than to bring
back the digestion and storage capacity
of youth that's gone, of time that's
past and never can return.-Richmond
