sible for the English elaborated Jewel.
Other forms are: Julia (Russian)
JUL and Juliska (Hungarian); Julka
(Polish); Jliska (Slovak).
Julia is one of the few names pos
sessin a diminutive almost as old as
itself. In the stories about the mar
tyrs the name Julitta occurs several
times, as commemorated in the rec
ords of st. GilIet, in Cornwall and OF
Lianulid in Wales. The Welsh, how
ever, made the pet name over into Eli
dan
The modern Italian diminutive, Giul-
ietta. was further corrupted by the
French into JuIiette. Right here 1t is
the place to say that the interesting
lady Capulet was never called Juliet
at home.
In Roman history the name of Julia
is almost synonymous with misfortune
One of the most famous Of her women
was Julia, the daughter of the Roman
emperor Augustus a princess admired
for beauty, education and kindness
Her father banished her to the desert
island Of Pandataria, near Naples.
where "Ju1ia's House is still shown.
Like herself, her oldest daughter died
in exile.

the princesses mentioned. Though q
philosopher and a writer, she commit
ted suicide.
Julia, the daughter of Julius Caesar
and Cornelia, was the beautiful wife Of
Pompe! the Great, and died in the
flower of her youth
Julia, the mother of Antony, was
noted for her courage. She defended
her brother. Lucius Caesar, at the risk
Of her life and later offered to undergo
the death penalty for her act.
]. Sheridan Knowles had the temer-
ity to- introduce in The Hunchbaek"
a character named Julia which is the
type Of commonplace sentiment. How
ever. the loTable and interesting Julias
of other poets and writers made UP for
this libel on the fair name.
The Julia of Shakspere's Two Gen
tlemen of Verona" is certainly an en-
gaging damsel and as a passionate
lover rivals his Titania and Helena. y
There is an engaging Julia in Ben
Johnson's The Poet and Poetaster,"
while the Julia in Sheridans comedy,
1.-The Rivals" is commiserated with by
all wives suffering from jealous hus-
bands

Julia is, of course, the female of the
older name Julius. this being first
applied as a title of honor to Ascanius
when. a very young man, he had con-
quered Italy. Ascaniuss combat with
Mensentius still found him with the
first down on the chin, hence the ap-
pellation, which idealists are pleased to
regard as synonym with youthful.
The Greek conqueror and his Latin
lied descendants adopted <he title as
a family name, and as such 1t became
celebrated for all times in the person
of julius Caesar. When this great
general and politician rose to power
his female kin clamored for a share in
his title. hence the name Julia which,
in the course OF time, became the ia
vorite name of the emperor's- daugh-
tiers, and as the imperial princesses of
Rome frequently bestowed their own
names on slaves it quickly spread.
In Great Britain it was introduced
by the famous Julius himself, and the
Introduction of the calendar, bringing
in the Julian Era, no doubt likewise
helped TO popularize the name, as is
evident from the fact that the British
called the flower blooming in the sew

In Wales the male name was more
frequently used than the female Julia;

The Stingy Donna
By Counties. Buelow.D

Z" HE Cura Of Santana had his
mother in the house to look
after the housekeeping They
were. living in a pretty whitewashed
house with large loggia. the pillars
of which were covered with Towering
Santarita. Each of them had a large
comfortable home made hammock, made
from many colored cotton. In these
they slept. Besides, they had a table,
few chairs, corn crusher and
silver Bombilla. everything that Il Ter
son needs in happy Paraguay. They
always had plenty to eat and drink.
The people of Santana were not ex-
actly rich, but they were very pious
and brought their Cura plenty of
everything he needed, manioc and corn.
bananas and nuts, vans, eggs and
chickens.
But Donna Epiphania was a mean,
stingy, selfish woman She did not
dare let her son see this, for he had
tender heart and an open hand, and
never let anyone go away empty
handed.
When he was away visiting his
scattered Pensioners, no poor or hun
CRY ever thought of going near his
house. for everyone feared Donna Epi-
phania's tongue and evil eyes.
Then one day a strange beggar came
to the village, who had never heard
anything about the good Cura and his
wicked mother. Tired and hungry he
stood at the pretty wflitewashed cot
tage, and according to the custom of
the country he clapped his thin, bony
hands three times. window was
opened and the old woman looked out.

"Oh, sonora, give me something to

II have nothing in the house." said
the old woman, "and my son, the Cura,

said and the beggar rejoiced, for he
thought he was going to get that any
way.
Shut up you stupid creature" said
Donna Epiphania, kicking the hen
away. Cautiously she opened the door
and with her long. dried-up fingers
she handed the beggar two onion
leaves The man was rather surprised
at the unexpected gift and when he
had recovered sufficiently to say,
Thanks" she slammed the door in
his face

said to himself. Il will be back to-
