For our Uncle Samuel has decided that
the paper money that he has been manu-
featuring for a century is larger than IL
should be. Were it smaller, he says it
would fit more readily into pocketbooks,
would require less folding and would con-
seauently last longer. 1t would be more
convenient and more artistic. lnciden-
tally, il would save a lot of money in the
process of manufacture.
But. above and beyond all this. the
change in the size of the money would
give an excellent opportunity for re-

The Secretary of the Treasury is in

As a matter of fact the plan has de-

THE STORY OF CINDERELLA

The story Of Cinderella and her little
glass slippers IL known TO every child the
world over. IT. one form or another II 10
part OF the folklore Of every nation. and
from time immemorial has been a favor
ite with the little ones.
Cinderella, who was Of a happy and
accomplishing disposition, lived with her
stepmother and two stepsisters. who were
their old clothes and was compelled to
perform all the drudgery and menial
work Of the household.
The stepsisters were invited 10 attend a
bali given by the King, and, accompanied
by their mother went there in style, ieav-
ing poor Cinderella alone in the house.
However. her fairy godmother appeared
and with a touch Of her magic wano
transformed her ragged dress into a mag
nificent silken costume, including tiny
glass slippers. The fairy godmother also
provided a state coach. with fOotnen and
outriders. in which Cinderella attended
the ball and won the Kings son for a
husband.
This. Of course, IN mere outline OF the
famous story
An exquisite picture OF Cinderella, print
ed IN beautiful colors. on plate paper, Is
presented to-day with every copy Of The
Sunday Tribune. II will be found insert
cd IN the Magazine Section. In this pict-
ure Cinderella, nagniicently gowned, with
q long. flowing train and holding beau
tlful fan, poses gracefully in the centre
Of the kitchen floor. In strong contrast

background Is a huge fireplace. in which
a cheerful wood IRE burns on the hearth
A homely pot hangs by a chain on one
eide, q hand bellows hangs on the wall
and various articles appear on the man
ielpiece. Tho fairy godmother appears
standing on three legged stool, waving
her magic wand. which sparkles at the
end as If tipped with diamonds. The
beautiful colorings with their subtle
shades and effects, which the talented
artist has 80 skilfully and 90 pleasngly
worked In must be seen 10 be appre-
ciated, as no mere description can do II
Justice.
This beautiful and highly artistic sup
plement was painted by Miss NJ. l.. Kirk.
