WHAT'S IN A NAME?
EMMA.

Few feminine names have a
simpler origin than Emma. 1t is
one of the many names derived from
Teutonic forefathers. Tradition as
signs its origin to the lispings of a
child since anime was nurse in
Germany and anne is translated
housekeeper in Spain. ANIME was
quickly transposed to Emma, prob
ably from a latent sense of euphony.
The Karling daughters of Teu-
tonic fame were first to use %the
name. Later a daughter of Char
temagne was so-called. A roman
tic story surrounds her to the effect
that she is said to have carried her
lover. Eginhardt, the chronicler, on
her back over the snow that his
footprints might not betray his
visits.
Emma was popular in France,
where it was the name of the sis
ter of Hugh Capet who married
Richard the Fearless, Of Normandy.
Her grandmother was first the wife
of Ethelred the Unready. then of
knut. 1t was in this way that Emma
became much in vogue in Saxony.
There were also Emmes among the
daughters of the Norman Dru de
Baladon, who came over with WILL
lam the Conqueror.
Prior, in his beautiful ballad of
he Nut Browne Maid, which was
supposed to be the history of the
Ihepherd, Lord Clifford, called his
poem Henry and Emma" which
TACT brought Emma romantic fame
Ind spread the popularity of her
name Emmeline, curiously enough,
bears no relationship to Emma, but
comes rather from Amaline, the
progenitor of Amy.

Tony wheeled around, with angry

laugh. Jim was a conceited little

How Many Women
Keep Young Looking

"A woman may be old at Is ard

clubwoman. Years don't matter
Didn't Ninon de L'Enclos have a
proposal at 90?'
The youth of our women is more
lasting than it was a generation
ago. because We are better ac-
quainted with simple physiological
laws. When the first aging mark :
appear wrinkles, bagginess Of
cheeks, neck and chin-we realize
that the cause is loosening of the
tissue underneath. We know the
cause must be removed. Instead Of
laying On pastes we send TO the
drug store for an ounce of DOW
dered saNolite and a half-pint OF
witch hazel. mix them and battle
face, neck and hands in the solu-
tion. We know this tightens the
skin. solidifies the tissue, induces a
healthy circulation. We treat causes
rather than effects. We use reason
and stay young.-Adv.

HOROSCOPE.
SATURDAY. MARCH 20, 1920.

Mercury dominates all the plan
cts in this days rule for good.
Mars and Neptune are mildly ad-
verse in the morning.
All the signs seem to Indicate un-
satisfactory conditions in the army
and navy for men who have ambi-
tion. and designations of officers
will continue to multiply, II the
, signs are read Alright.
Clashes OF opinion on military
matters will be numerous in April
and June. There is a sinister sign
for men of higher rank whos-
friends promote political move
ments.
The seers who prophesy in re-
gard to the Presidential campaign
repeat the assurance that a young
man without a long public record
will be favored by the stars.
The new moon of this date is held
to be most important, since ii is the
Neomenia and takes place only a
few hours before the Vernal . IuinoS.
1t fails in the tenth house In con-
junction with Mercury.
The seers read this figure as fore
shadowing a change in the govern
ment.
The summer should be a period
for successful business develop
ment. even though there may be
some sort Of a furry over financial
matters.
Early marriages will be more nu-
merous than before the war, and
there will be also many weddings
among persons of rather advanced
age.
