is found that the reigning wife

of an Achaemenian noble, who
might have been the Nashti of old
legend; the far daughter of the
tribe of Benjamin whose royalty

Hadassah in her own tongue. also
known as Atossa and finally as
Aster. Combined with the Latin
stella. meaning star. it gave rise
to the modern estrella. star. which
the Romans call Esthera and Hos

So in England. there arose Is
ther. Hester, and Hetty. In Franz"
Esther came into vogue in the
days of Racine. when the great
tragedian wrote a sacred drama,
acted by the young ladies of St.
Cyr, and chose the old legend for
his subject as compliment to
Nine. de MaintenOn, Esther. pre-
ferred before the discarded NashtL
who was Nine. de Montespan.
Esther straightway became a pop
ular feminine name in France.
EsteIle was adopted simultaneously
but its use was confined more to
the stage.
In England. Esther became fam

ladies beloved of Dean Swift: Es-

Latin equivalent. Stella, and the
other by the generic term for our

Estrella was the heroine of a
Spanish pastoral and Able FlOriar
