FREDERIKA, FREDA AND alfredo.

Frederika means Princess of Peace.
Ferda Is a contraction of the longer name
come to us, apparently, all the way from
Friesland. where it is spelled Freda and
pronounced Prada.
Freddie Is the correct English diminu-
tive. though FRITZ has been taken over
from the German. or rather the Austrian
vernacular, owing to the popularity of a
certain comic opera star.
F>rltzin is the more grammatical German
pet NAME, but, like the other. not at all
popular in the Fatherland. Popular forms
are: Rtke pronounce Reeke) and Rikchen
pronounce Rekjan).
The French use the stately FrederiQue.

In Ireland "Fiddy" is much used. 1t
seems hard to believe. but Fiddy Is a con-
traction of the ancient Saxon Frithswith,
which stands for Strong in Peace
The original Frithswith was Lady Ok

Cora is derived from the Greek word
kore. with the accent on the last syllable
and means maiden"
The deified Maiden Persephone was
hailed the daughter of Ceres and queen
of the internal regions as the wife of
Pluto. Six months of the year she passed
in Olympus, the other six in Hades,
which caused her changeful character

A more appealing figure is the Greek
poetess Cora, who carried off the laurels
at Thebes and whom Mdme. de Stael i'm
mortalized in her great novel "Corinne."
Since the appearance of that book in 1907,
Cora has been dropped in France alto
gether, the diminutive taking It's place.
The great authoress melted into one
fine character the three Coras. or Corin-
mas, who had excelled as lyric poets of
Greece, the one already named. the Cora
of Thespis and the Cora of Corinth.
The Cora of Thebes %triumphed over
Findar, and was one of the handsomest
women of her age. Very little of her
poetry has survived.
Lord Byron's poem Cora which was
greatly admired in America, made the
name as popular on this side of the water
as Corinne IS in France.
Another Cora appears in sheridan's,
Pizzaro.

PARIS, June 3.-The marriage OF the
Princess Elizabeth of Roumania, daugh-
ter of the crown prince, and Prince
George OF Greece, eldest son of the crown
prince and grandson of King George. will
take place in September. The Princess
Elizabeth inherits the wonderful beauty
and vivacious temperament of her
mother, who before her marriage was
her royal highness Marie, princess royal
Of Great Britain.
Among the royalties of Europe she has
been considered the most noted beauty.
Now the mantle falls upon the shapely
shoulders of her daughter. who is only
seventeen years old. Our own ex-Em-
press Eugene has been called a harmless
flirt. At all events. officers who had no
other merit than that they danced at the
Tuleries and were good looking received

But the Crown Princess of Roumania.
who is one OF the most happily married
women in the reigning families. has sur
passed Eugenie's record and recalled the
days of Marie Antoinette.
An "Outrageous Little F1irt."
The charming Elizabeth is an out
rageous little fiirt. and since her dresses
were heightened to her shoe tops many
handsome young officers have been
abashed before sidewise flash of her
beautiful eyes. The dashing George of
Greece. who is heir-presumptive to the
tottering throne Of Greece, was enrap-
tured with the charming princess, and
the love match fitting in with the po!iti-
cal desire to bind the two countries.

plans for his marriage with the young
princess. He is twenty-one years old.
Now the Princess Elizabeth. who has
such a little time to have fun, must be
becomingly dignified and quit breaking
the hearts of handsome guardsmen.
BY her fathers side the Princess Eliza
beth is cousin of William of Germany.
and by her mothers side she has the
