Famous Women


Novella was the daughter of John
Andreas, a famous canonist OF the
fourteenth century, who was born In
Bologna, Italy, where her father was
professor. He instructed her so wen
that when he was prevented from
reading lectures to his scholars. he
sent his daughter IN his stead. She
was a very beautiful maiden, and, lest
her beauty should detract the atten-
ton of her hearers, she always had a
little curtain drawn before her when
she lectured. h was married to
John Caldesimus, also a very learned
man, but did o long survive her
marriage. To perpetuate her memory.
her father entitled his commentary on
the Decretals of Gregory X, The
Novellae."

Snakes Reputation Undeserved.

The beginning Of all religious cere-
monial is magic. Thus Aaron with his
rod. He turns it into a snake.
Most surprising, but not wholly
novel. "Old stuff! I" say the priests of
Pharaoh. "Watch us!" They, in like
manner, transform sticks into serpents.
But Aarons snake gobbles up the
snakes of Pharaoh's clergy, and that
settles the argument.
The snake Is nearly. If not quite, the
least intelligent of animals. To speak
of the "wisdom Of the serpent" is q
joke. Yet. through all the ages this
stupid and almost mindless reptile has
