CORINNE.

Corinne has been IN vogue in
America for so many years that her
distinguished French origin has AL
most been fOrgotten. Seldom does
deliberately foreign name re-
ceive such welcome or such per-
manent popularity The Greek is
responsible for the earliest source
Of Corinne. the name coming prob
ably from Persephone's title Kore,
maiden, which was applied TO the
Boetian poetess. who won q wreath
OF victory at Thebes.
But unlike many of the ancient
favorites connected with the bright
est lights of the Old world. this
name persisted and when ambitious
writer's, eager for a new name for .
heroine, delved into early history
Corinna was salvaged and put into
current use Nine. de Stael created
the brilliant Corinne, heroine of the
novel of that name, and insured her
immortality. French damsels be-
yond number adopted the name,
while in Italy Corinna appeared in
an early chronicle OF the Middle
Ages. relating the story of the lady
best known as Rowena, daughter Of
Henghist. .
The warm-hued carnelian Is
Corinne's talismanic stone. II will
protect her against danger and dis
ease and will give her courage and

I'VE have abundant cause for
thanksgiving. The lessons of the war
are rapidly healing. The great army
of free men which America sent to the
defence Of liberty, returning to the
grateful embrace of the nation has
resumed the useful pursuits Of peace
as simply and as promptly as it
rushed to arms in obedience to the
countrys call. The equal justice Of
our laws has received steady vindica-
ton in the support of law abiding
people against various and sinister at
tacks, which have REJECTED only the
based agitations Of war, now happily
passing.

and resolve, TO discharge them and
