JULIA.-NO. ..
One Of the Oldest and most class
ical of names is Julia The fortu-
nate woman who bears it, may be
assured that famous women Of I'M
revealed centuries have answered
to it, for it exceeds Rome. in an
tiquity. Like its masculine coun-
terpart julius, it had it's origin in
the Julian gems that preceded Ro-
man civilization. Various legends
are put forth to account for "Ju-
Illus" and. historians differ widely,
but the generally accepted theory
is that Julius is the diminutive of
"dius," meaning divine, and was
evolved in the same manner that
Zeus, father Of the gods, came to
be the Roman Jupiter. II such is
the case Juliaemay fairly be called
a daughter Of the gods.
Just as the masculine julius was
famed through Julius Caesar and
became hereditary throughout the
empire, 30 the feminine counter
part was accepted as hereditary and
was adopted as ornamental in other
countries when classical names
came into fashion. The Julie" of
Rousseau's '.Nouvelle Heloise' made
Julie very popular in France. Eng
land, Spain and Portugal kept her
intact as Julia, but Italy changed
her to Guilia and Russia added the
ltypically Slavic touch Of Julia.
Juliana came into vogue after St
Juliana was beheaded at Nicomedia
under Garelius and her relics were
enshrined at Rome and later Brus.

In this connection a Rock Island citizen

He was stopping at one of the prominent loop

theories and remedies are garnered
from many sources.

hundredth grain. The aim of these
medicines is to maintain peristalsis
downward and oppose the tendency
to upward waves in the alimentary
tube. The same regimen should be
continued for the first three or four
days Of the journey.
Avoid lying semi-recifning. 1t
Is better to lie fully reclining with
no pillow n only a small pillow I'M

is rolling.
Eat less than you ordinarily eat,
and let the diet include fruit, green
vegetables or salads, to oppose the
tendency towards constipation.

served that soldiers who wore
cones or tightly rolled gauze in both
ears, to shut out most of the sounds
aboard-ship, were far less likely to
become seasick than soldiers who
wore nothing in the ears.
The dizziness and nausea Of sea-

ciated with disturbance Of the

Mother Bent was charmed with
the young man because he showed
an interest in Lulu. The neighbors
took huge delight in getting her to
talk about him. They were enter
tanned with excellent accounts of
bis goodness and his democratic
ways. But of Peter, the cat, they
were given evil reports, of his sly
tendencies and his. thieving pro-
pensities. Upon the latter subject
Mrs. Bent was eloquent. sparing
no criticism of Peters mistress, but
expressing profound sympathy for
her son. She would certainly
mother" the one and discipline the
other.
The neighbors, who knew Mrs.
Bent well, remarked, with a wink,
that the Alleged Peter being only

ence.
Mrs. Bent's idea of feline treat
ment was that cats should take
what was given them. She would
cater, neither to q fish-cat nor a
meat-cat. As long as she did not
cut off their tails with the carving
knife her conscience was clear.
Soon Lulu and Mr.. Frothman be-
came friends. Mr.. Frothman, much
Travelled, and member Of the best
society. proved an edifying and
agreeable companion. To them the

panied her. ssated themselves.
