Derivations Of Women's Names.

Annabella is not Anna-bella, or Fair An
ma, but IS the # minnie of Hannibal, mean
ing gift Tor grace) Of Bel. Arabella is not
Ara-bella, or beautiful altar, but Orabella,
apraying woman. In it's Anglicized form
of Orabel, it was much more common in
the thirteenth century than at present.
Maurice has nothing to do with Mauritius,
or Moor, but comes from Amalric-him-
mel-reich-the kingdom of heaven. Ellen
is the feminine of Alain, Alan or Allan,
and has no possible connection with Hell
en-. which comes from different language
and is older by about 1000 years at least.
Amy is not from aimee but from a1aie. Avice
or AVIS, does not exactly mean advice, as
some seem to think. 1t comes from ED
wis. and means happy wisdom. Eliza has
no connection with Elizabeth. It is the
sister OF Louisa. and both are the daugh-
ter of Heloise. which is Hele-wis, hidden
wisdom. There is, indeed another form
of Louisa, or rather Louise, which is the
feminine Of Louis, but was scarcely heard
of before the sixteenth century. The old
Helolse form of name, AlOisa, AlOisia or
Aloysia, was adopted into medieval En-.
glish as A!esia-a name which our old
psychologists always confuse with Alice
Emily and Amelia are different forms of
one name.-Emily is from Emylia the
name of an Etruscan gem. Amelia comes
from the Gothic anaala-heavenly. Regi-
maid is is not derived from Regina and has
nothing to do with queen. 1t is Reinalt
exalted purity. Alice, Adelais, Adelaide,
Alisa, Alix Adeline, are all forms of one
name, the root of which is odel-noble.-
But Anne was never used as Identical with
Annis or Agnes (of which last the old
Scotch Annas is variety, nor, as stur-
Oily maintain, was Elizabeth ever synony-
nous with Isabel.-Notes and Queries.

The INSANE In their treatment of the
insane the ancient Egyptians showed a
wisdom and practical sense worthy of their
high civilization. At each extremity Of
Egypt was built temple to Saturn, where
insane persons we're taken. The temples
were surrounded by beautiful, shady
grounds, and patients were provided with
every form of amusement and recreation
that could occupy the mind and invigorate
the body. Here also the finest works of
arts we're brought. Music, wine, employ
ment, fixing the attention and exercising
the memory we're the principal remedies

A Stormy Month on the Sun.

Last March was stormy month on the
sun. TempesJs pow erful enough to SWEEP
every living thing from the face of the
earth have spent their force upon the grea,
| glowing orb, and their effects have beer
visible St the distance of ninety odd mil
| lion miles. Those who have not looked al
the sun through a telescope since 1878
when its broad disk was as free from spots
as the polished gold case Of aswatch, would
be astonished at the change in its telescope
appearance. Il is now the shield of war
rier, dented and pierced by many fierce
strokes. On some days an opera glass
powerful enough to define the curve of an
actresses eyebrow has sufficed to show the
dark nucleus of solar cyclone. Spots
larger than this earth have appeared and
vanished. Day after day the whole sur
face of the sun has been notified and
wrinkled under the strain Of forces so ire
mendous that in comparison with them
the strength of a volcano seems puny.
The spots have gone trooping across the
disk, with the revolution of the mighty
globe, in groups and rows, singly and in
pairs. Huge groups have been seen to
split up, smaller spots have been formed
and destroyed in few hours. Whether,
as some have supposed, the spots are caus-
ed by the fall of enormous meteoric masses
upon the sun, or produced by the up-rush
or down-rush of gaseous matter, or are the
result of both these causes, the effect upon
the observer is the same. He cannot es-
cape the impression that the great fre-ball
lie is looking at is the sport of elemental
forces of the most gigantic power and &C
tivity
There have been only three, clear days
during January when, with an ordinary
spyglass. the SUMS disk appeared unspot-
ted. These sun storms are not likely to
decrease in fury for some years yet. The
spot period is just beginning, and before
it passes astronomers hope to have learned
far more about this interesting and puz-
zling subject than they know now. The
weight of evidence shows that there is
a close relation between the condition of
the sun and the earths meteorology. Hun
dreds of telescopes are daily turned upon
the sun from all quarters q the earth
There has been vast advance in our
knowledge of the great lumlnary since the
second Herschel suggested, only some
twenty years ago, that the curious bright
spots in thesun known as willow leaves
might be gigantic living beings, whose in
tense vitality made them glow so dazzling
ly. Yet what has been learned is slight
in comparison with what remains to be
learned.-N. Y. Sun.

"A sick person, wanting nourishment and
having lost appetite. can often be sustained
by the following, when nothing else can be
taken: Make strong cup of coffee, adding
boiling milk as usual only sweetening rath-

together thoroughly; boil the coffee, milk
and sugar together, and pour it over the
beaten eggs in the cup you are going to
serve it in. This simple receipt is used
frequently in hospital practice.

And tell him that a carriage waits
