Jimmy was called Mr. Cinderella because his life was just as unhappy as that of the poor little girl in the fairy tale. He lived with his step-mother and two bulky step-brothers whom the mother believed to be all that was fine and glorious in the world. The step-brothers did everything that they could to make Jimmy’s daily lot miserable, and so worked upon their mother that when the country fair came round, he was made to stay home and chop wood, while they went to the fair and enjoyed themselves. Now Jimmy had a fairy god-father, a jovial old gentleman, who was always wandering along, smoking a cigar, and looking sharply at all the little boys he met. He pitied Jimmy, so he changed his ragged clothes into a brilliant uniform, and told a cigar to turn into an automobile, and Jimmy went off to the fair in great shape. There he met the Queen of the Popcorn Trust, and the rest of the story, well, it turns out just the way you would want it to.
