THE CREATION OF WOMAN.
Legend Of the Orient Which Reflects
Much Upon the Dignity
Of the Sex.

Here is the legend told among
the Turkish peasants, explaining
the origin of women, says the Los
Angeles Times.
Allah made First Man, then dis
covered that he was incomplete.
~ must make Woman" said AL
lab. So he sent for the Archangel
Michael, and said to him:
81 find that Man is incomplete.
Go you to. Paradise, and take from
Man one rib, and from that 1 shall
make Woman"
So Michael hurried to Paradise
and found First Man asleep, and
took a rib from him. Then he set
out on his return to Heaven. But
on the way he met the Devil, who
said:
"What have you there, Mi
chael?"
"a bone," he answered, "from
which Allah shall fashion Won
an"
"Let me look at it," said the
Devil.
But Michael would not, where
upon the Devil tried to take it, and
the two fought for possession of
First Mans rib. Finally>the Devil
broke away and ran with the rib in
his hand. Michael gave chase,
and they ran around the world
several times. ! sl
Then the Devil saw a hole in a
rock and he dived in. Butthe hole
was too small, and he stuck fast
inside, leaving only his tail out
side: Michael pulled the Devils
tail to get him out, and the Devil
yelled inside, but he couldn't get
out. And, although Michael
tugged for several days, he could
! not pull out the Devil, nor could he
reach in and get the rib. So he
pulled out a knife, cut off the Dew
IFS tail and hurried on to Heaven.
! What have you there :" cried.

plants every morning and adjust

caught the 1859 express for the
big city, and at night he came
home to see what had happened.
Usually no great disaster had be-
fallen.
And in February, if you were
lucky enough to be invited to his
snug little greenhouse, while A
winter storm ragged outside, you
would be likely to find some gor-
geous catteyas, with perhaps 20
flowers on plant and each flower
fully eight or nine inches across.
You should have heard the Ia

"But don't you have to have a
special kind of house?"
''Not for these. You see, l have
other plants beside Orchids"

your. greenhouse is so comfort

chids need a hot, close atmos-
phere?'

''But l thought they all lived on
