The Origin OF Woman.

According to Hindu legend this
is the proper origin Of woman;
Twashtri, the god Vulcan Of the
Hindu mythology, created the world,
but on his commencing to create
woman he discovered that for man
he had exhausted all his creative
materials, and that not one solid ele-
ment had been left. This, Of course,
greatly perplexed Twashtrl, and
caused him to fall into a profound
meditation. When he arose from it
he proceeded as follows. He took.
The roundness Of the moon.
The undulating curve Of the ser.
pent.
The graceful twist Of the creeping
plant.
The light shivering Of the grass
blade and the slenderneSs Of the
willow.
The velvet Of the flowers.
The lightness Of the feather.
The gentle gaze Of the doe.
The froliesomeness Of the dancing
sunbeam.
The tears Of the cloud.
The inconsistency Of the wind.
The timidity Of the hare.
The vanity Of the peacock.
The hardness Of the diamond.
The cruelty Of the tiger.
The chill Of the snow.
The cackling Of the parrot.
The cooling Of the turtle-dove.
All these he mixed together AM
formed a woman.
