~ ETA was Jobs second daughter,
and the name stands for Cassias
N a medicinal herb. The most pop
ular diminutive Of Kezia IS Kissy.
The snowfall is Kezia's emblem and
thoughts Of heaven" are the senti-
ments attributed TO her.
Leah.-The original Leah was sister
Of Rachel The French CpeII the name
with the final III and It is Lila in
Italian.
Dante, In his poetry. makes Lila the
emblem Of fruitful love The name Is
Tariously translated as wild COW" and
weary one" Leah, the daughter OF
Laban, became the ancestress of six
tribes and was the mother Of Dinah-
Lydia means a woman hailing from
the towns in Asia Minor. St. Paul en-
countered one on his journeys, and his
mentioning her as seller Of purple"
immOrtalzed the name. It is sometimes
spelled LYDIA. This latter name, though,
may be a corruption Of Leda, the
mother Of Helen in Greek mythology
MarCella is the diminutive Of Marcel
ana. an adaptation Of the word Mars.
It is sometimes abbreviated into Mar
c1a, but Celia is the more popular d.
minUttve. Sella is incorrect Geranium
is Marcia's emblem and gentility her
sentiment Spanish women are fond Of
calling their girls Marcellina- The rec
Ords Of the early church tell Of Mar
celia, a widow and friend Of st. Jerome.
Melissa is sometimes used as a syn
y
the first mentioned is much older, and
besides. has a different meaning. AIelis-
Sc, means ito sWeeten" and IT was be-
slowed upon the Greek maiden who
Grbt discovered the use Of honey. The
French adopted Melita. The Germans
use both Melita and Melissa.
Messalina means the woman from
Messina- It is sometimes COMPOUNDED
with Marcellina. Claudius, husband OF
the empress Messalina, condemned her
to death.
Melanie is also spelled 1Ielany. It's
correct English-Latin form IS MeIanie.
It means zone in mourning" and there
was an ancient goddess OF that name,
whom the Greeks called Demetre. From
this was derived Dimitra, which latter
name was abbreviated Metria In
some parts Of England a St MelOny IS
remembered She was the friend of St
Jerome
Miranda means the admirable one
compelling admiration The field con-
TOlvulous is It's emblem and "captiva-
ton" its sentiment Shakspere made
the name famous In THE Tempest"
His Miranda is beautiful. modest and
tender, perfectly unsOphisticated and
refined. The great English actress
Mrs. Abingdon, once a flower girl whose
crowning glory was her impersOna-
ton Of Lady Teazle, made her. debut
on the stage as Miranda IN the Busy

body" OF Centliyre. Christine Nilsen,
whom the American public admired
as 8Lignon Ophelia and Elsa, retired
from the stage as Countess Miranda
1ugnon is French and means the
pretty one" Goethe introduces a Mig
non with a very sad history in his
Wilhelm Meister, and the subject was
made into a grand opera by Ambqolse
ThOmase. In years past It used to be
a great favOrite with American opera
gOers.
8Iuicent is an old Teuton word and
means strength for work" Milly is
its correct diminutive, but not Mulica,
which IS Hebrew and stands for bit
ter" Miliss nde Is the French for Mil
licent and the foreign name has OBJ
tanned a great vogue in America since
the production OF Debussy's wonderful
opera, 'Peleas ct Melisande," by Oscar
F1ammerstein. Melesina, Duchess Of
Kendall was supposed to be the left
handed" wife Of George l. Of England.
She was Melusine OF Schulemberg, Of
Hanover, and heartily disltked in Eng
land. George J. had promised the
duchess that, If she survived him, ne
would make her a visit, returning from
the other world. A few days after his
death a large raven flew into her villa,
which she received and treated with all
the respect and tenderness due to the
august" representation.
Minerva was the Roman goddess OF
wisdom and the liberal arts, the cOun-
terpart Of Pallas Athene Of the Greeks.
There are two antique statues Of Nj
nerva, one in the vatican, the other
at Munich Minerva was one OF the
wives Of Constantine.
Monica, like so many other girls
names, is derived from the Greek, and
means lonely" It has also been con-
nected with q Latin substantive mean
ing the reminder" the warner" The
mother Of St Augustine was called
Monica This the Irish abbreviated
into Moncha, the French into MOnique.
Possibly MOnOca is identical with the
Italian DomOnica or Minica- It was
said Of St Monica that while in hex
time the law forbade women to drink
wine, TO make her drink was one Of
the great trials to which this saint
was subjected.
MurieL-The meaning of Muriel IS
myrrh, being the Greek designation Of
the plant Some prefer to call 1t
Meriel, but Muriel is certainly more
euphOniOus. The name has fallen into
disuse Of late. though it remains one
of the pretueSt in the English Ian
guage.
Naomi means "my pleasantness." The
Hebrew original bearer OF the name
was the motherinlaw Of Ruth The
scarlet geranium is Naomfs emblem
and consolation her sentiment
