whats in a Name?'
By MILDRED MARSHALL
Facts about your name; It's history; mean
ing whence it was derived; significance;
your lucky day and lucky jewel.
REBECCA.

~ GOOD old Biblical stock is Re
J Decea, which is translated
'noosed cord" 1t is said to come
from the Hebrew word rabak-at least
that was the origin Of the first Re
becca, a name which seems to have
been coined especially to be bestowed
upon the wife Of Isaac, Of Biblical
fame
The Rebeccas of the world should
make excellent wives, since the word
Ribka, a later rendition of rabak,
which means a cord with a moose, IL
given to convey the firmness of the
marriage cord The Septgagint and
the Latin both give evidence of The
name Rehecca in very early times. An
other version, said to be the author
lied one, makes her Rebekah. This
latter form seems to be the one af-
fected today by every young miss who
is called by the name of the good old
Biblical heroine.
Despite the religious significance
which history has given to the name,
Rebecca has been great favorite
with writer's, who have employed her
in more or less frivolous romances.
Two Reheccas who Will never be for
gotten by present-day readers are the
Becky" Sharp of Thackeray's immor-
tai vanity Fair" and the charming
~ quaint little "Rebecca of Sunny
brook Farm" which is endeared to the
hearts of American admirers of Kate
Douglas Wlggin.
The bloOdstone is Rebeccas tails
manic gem. 1t has the power to guare
its weaver from all dangers and pre-
serve her bodily health, and secure
her consideration and respect. More
over, 1t is said to guard her from de
ception, especially of her lover. Sun
day is her lucky day and six her lucky
number. The violet, slgnifylng mod
esty, Is her flower.
