What S in a Name?
BY Mildred Marshall.
EFFIE.

From the quaint old-fashioned
Euphemia, so rarely heard in these
days. comes the popular name of
Effie. 1t is not a diminutive, as Is
generally supposed. but a full
fiedged name with an interesting
history. Originally Euphemia meant
both fair speech and abstinence
from the reverse. so that from an
ironical standpoint it signified si-
lence. and was applied to the still
ness that prevailed during religious
rites.
The first Euphemia who gave
vogue to the name was a virgin
martyr of Bithynia- whose legend OF
constancy made her popular in both
the east and the west. Russia called
her Jevfimija: she was jenna in Ser
bia, and Benma and Bimmie in other
lands. Scotland, however. adopted
the name and straightway called her
Efie. Phomie was also Scottish but
did not attain the popularity Of the
former.
However, neither Effie nor Phe-
mie, which have been prevalent
since those early times, can ever be
forgotten because of the finest
works Of Sir Walter Scott. Hero
ines of fiction. written by the mas
ters of literature, find their names
as immortalized as heroines Of his
tory and Efie is no exception to this
general rule
1t was once thought that the Scot
tish name Euphame was one OF the
Greek names brought from Hun
gary by Queen Margaret. Others
believed that II came from the KEEL
tic Aoiffe which has fostered so
many of our present-day feminine
names. Indeed, those so inclined
may take their choice of possible
sources, though general credence is
more often given to the first deriva-
tion, since il concersn a religieuse
and in olden days. it would
seem that being martyred was all
that was needed to perpetuate ones
name through the centuries.
In the Scottish Highlands, Efie
is called Oighrigh, a name which
seems to have no derivation what
ever. The Church OF Santa Eufemia
at Rome gives title to a cardinal and
through it, the name has spread In
popularity in Italy and France.
Efie's stone is the topaz, which
has the power of the sun to put to
flight all evil and dark forebodings.
but il must be set in gold to accom-
plish its purpose. 1t promises that
no harm shall befall it's wearer.

lucky number. and the chrysanthe-
mum is her flower.

CONTROL YOUR MOODS.

Bad digestion and i'll temper seem
to be so frequently found in the
same individual that we have fallen
into the habit of blaming the tenn
per on the digestion. Physicians
are beginning to realize that worry
and anxiety cause a condition of
mental depression that will invaria-
bly, react on the digestion.
Sometimes it is a personal an
tagonism. Some individual eats at
the table with you that so irritates
you that the proper digestive
juices are not secreted and indiges-
ton results. Every individual owes
ii to himself and to his community
to keep his digestion in order.
Make your plan to keep your mind
serene so that you will not get the
wrong psychic reaction on your
gastric juice.
If YOU are annoyed or irritated AT
meal time do not eat-wait until
YOU cool off" If business worries
are carried to the home table trou-
BILE is bound to occur. You must
actually enjoy your meal IL you are
going to get full benefit from your
food.
This has actually been tested by
research work on animals. The Sc
cretion known as 'phychic secre-
ton" occurs in the stomach about
fifteen seconds after food has been
taken into the mouth. 1t is clear
that we deal with a more compli-
Gated process than the simple re-
fiex caused by the food itself ana
that the secretion discharge into
the stomach occurs as the result Of
nervous processes connected with
the enjoyment" of food.

The Greek Ideal.

Down through the ages goes the
influence of the ancient Greek ideas
of beauty and to this day most Of
US have a notion that the perfectly
beautiful type of face is the Grecian
type. By this we mean the type of
face portrayed in Grecian art-the
straight, firm nose. low broad fore
head, full, finely chiseled lips, large
full eyes-a combination of regular
features that was probably no more
often found perfectly presented in
the same face among the Greeks
than il is among the present-day
Europeans or Americans, for that
matter.
There Is really no very good rea-
son why we should accept this
standard of perfect beauty so un-
questionably. Nine individuals out
OF ten find other types more fasci-
nating-they sincerely admire fea-
lures cast In another mould more
than those made famous by Praxi-
teles, the greatest of Greek sculp-
tors. But there Is something still
about this pure Grecian type that
makes us willing to keep 1t on a
pedestal above the ideals of all
other times and all other places.
OF the Grecian face immortalized
by the great Greek sculptors one
art critic says: The brows are
low and straight, and are framed
by bands of wavy hair; the nose Is
admirable in form and rather large;
the lips are full, well turned and
often slightly parted; the chin is
delicately rounded; and, deeply set
under arching brows, the large, lu-
minous eyes look coldly forth from
the divinely immobile countenance."
Heroines in fiction are repeatedly
described as possessing Grecian fea-
lures. OF Haydee in Monte Chris
to-" Dumas says: The beauty of
countenance was peculiarly and
purely Grecian; there were the
large, dark, melting eyes. straight
nose and coral lips and pearly teeth
that belonged to her race and coun-
try" And of Mercedes in the same
book he says: Lovely as the Greeks
of Cyprus or Chios Mercedes boast
ed the same bright flashing eyes Of
jet, and ripe. round coral lips"
