FIRST TO COMPRESS FEET
Eavorite Of Chinese Emperor. Many
Centuries Ago, Said to Have
Originated the Custom.

j. T. Donovan, authority on Chinese
customs, in an article called Romance
in Chinese Literature" published in
the Forum, writes:
The ideal of beauty and the mark
of gentility for woman used to be
small feet, the compression Of which
was not imposed by law but was q
craze of fashion, as slender waists
were az one time in England. Several
accounts are given as to the origin Of
the custom of foot-binding, but proba-
bly, the following is the correct one:
1T is said that Yao Niang. the beau
tlful concubine of Emperor Ii Yu co.'s
A. d., was light and graceful In all
her movements, being able to dance
with ease and elegance. She gave so
much pleasure to her lord and master
that he caused to be made golden lily
flowers with movable petals for Yao
Niang to walk on from her apartments
to the palace. To crafty the emperor
still further, she compressed her feet,
in order that they might look like a
lily bud unopened until they were
three inches long"
