Legend of Cinderella, Almost Uni
versal, Dellaved to Have Come
From Ancient Memphis.
Cinderella nnd the legend surround
ing her ghiK.i slipper Is believed to
have originally cnino from ancient
Memphis. In the ruins of this burled
city lies the pyramid of Ithndopls, who
llviil tit Niiuerntls, nnd was Inconi
pnmhly beautiful mid chaste. Ono dny
when lthmliiplH u'iih bathing nn engle
flew through tho open colling of her
bathroom and plucked from her maid's
bunds the sandal which she was Just
about to lace about her mistress'
foot.
The onglo then flew to Memphis,
where the king was administering Jus
tire In ono of thu courts of the palace,
mid, hovering nbovi tho king, dropped
thu sandal, which fell Into tho folds of
tho king's garment. He examined the
Miiidnl mid found It so small nnd love
ly that he bade Ids survants search nil
Kgypt till they should flud thu woman
whom It would lit.
lthodoplx was found In NnucrntU
and carried to thu king, who married
her. Shu died lifter u few months'
happiness, mid tho dlsconsoliitu king
had one of tho costliest pyramids of
antiquity built In her memory. In tho
flint century It. C. the priests of Mem
phis were wont to exhibit a sandal in
a crystal shrlno which, they declared,
once belonged to Ithodopls, miraculous
ly preserved through muny centuries.
Tho snrcuphagus mid tho niuiiiniy of
Ithodopls havo entirely vanished and
her pyramid Is llttlo r.ioro than u r.iilu,
but her legend lives In every land.

COLD FRAME KEEPS TENDER GARDEN
PLANTS AND FLOWERS GROWING IN
WINTER, AND FORCES EARLY BLOOMS
Do you want panslcs practically
nil winter?
Fresh parsley?
Double daisies nnd forget mo nots
In March or early April?
Hyacinths, daffodils, early tulips
or primroses a month In advanco of
tho outdoor season?
Uso a cold frame.
Tho cold frame Is a garden mar
vel, cvon moro remarknblo than a
hotbed, to ono who has never em
ployed It before. Tho protection
given by glass, oven without artifi
cial heat. Is surprising, and particu
larly If tho double glass sash Is used.
Hybrid itea roso cuttings rooted In
tho Into summer go through tho win
tor without losing their leaves. It Is
possible to grow tho dcllclously fra
grant wallflowers, favorites In Eng
lish gardens, but llttlo known here,
nnd havo a beautiful spring display
of their yellow, orange, mahogany
and crimson flowers of delicious fra
grance. I'enstemon, those gorgeous
perennials that must havo a long
start If they nro to be grown as an
nuals, are easily available. These
may bo started In the summer, win
tered In a cold frame and bedded out
as soon as the weather is warm and
furnish spikes of their gorgeous
trumpets all summer.
Foxgloves and Canterbury bells
and' tho so-called hardy garden
chrysanthemums, which often are not
so hardy In the open ground, come
through with their leaves green and
thriving and tho "mums" will have
a start sufficient to enablo them to
bloom ahead of the killing frosts
which often come before they have
n chance to flower.
Whcro a supply of horse manure
for a hotbed cannot be secured, the
cold frame Is tho best substitute.
Hank It up with earth or leaves. The
ground within It will soon thaw with
a few warm days, and seed can be
planted from a month to two weeks
before the outdoor season. Tender
plants such as tomatoes, egg plants.
WARD OFF DANGEROUS "COLD"
Much Sickness May Be Prevented by
Adoption of a Few Preventive
Measures.
A few precautions will decrease the
liability of catching cold from ex
posure to the rains of winter as well
as Its sniiu's. Some of the simplest
preventatives are those that nature
herself funilfhes. None needs to catch
a cold when wet If he or she will walk
or run home briskly. Wet clothing
draws the heat from the body and
lowers the temperature below normal.
This Is dangerous. But If the heat of
the body Is maintained by exercise,
little or no harm results from the wet
clothing. If obtainable, two or three
lumps of sugar should be eaten. This
helps the heart's action and supplies
considerable heat to the body.
Many deride the popular belief that
It Is Impossible to catch cold from a
wetting with sea water, but the state
ment holds much troth. The salt re
tards evaporation, and thus chilling of
the body Is delnyed. Obviously, thnt
Is an udvantage. Further, the salt
acts as a stimulant, and assists the
circulation of the blood. That Is nn
other udvantage. Thus, unless In un
usual circumstances, there Is much
less chance of a cold resulting from
an Immersion In tho sen than In fresh
water.
Those who feel much depressed In
wet weather should form the hnblt of
Increasing their rate of breathing. The
depression Is due to the Increase of
vnpor In the nlr. and the consequent
proportionate decrease of oxygen.
Quicker breathing, ns is obvious,
pumps more oxygen Into the system,
and the depression depnrts.
C0REAN BOY MATURES EARLY
Youngster May Be Married at Age of
Seven, According to Custom
of the Country.
Any time nfter a Corenn boy Is seven
he may be married, nnd he Is seldom
still unengnged n't 12 or 14. At that
time he winds his plgtnll If he still
wears one In these crop-headed days
Into n topknot nnd swaggers n bit
In tho presence of the unbetrothed.
Formerly, If a Corenn boy had nny
schooling at all he squatted all day
on the schoolroom floor, learning to
read nnd write, but not to speak
Chinese, mid he would have thought
himself well educated If he acquired
a vngue knowledge of the maxims of
Confucius. He often felt content to
carry a "Jlggy" or to drive n pack
pony or even to act ns nurse to the
bnby while his older brojher wrestled
with the Chinese clnsslcs. Under
tho new regime tho, school hours are
still long nnd strenuous, but tho boys
pursue a Jupmieso course of study
In Japanese. They probably would
veto their gnmes more Interesting than
nny curriculum whatsoever. Their na

they curry on during the first fifteen
