your lucky day and lucky jewel
ERNESTINE.

ERNESTlNE has an origin Of lofty
T. dignity. She is one Of the Eagle"
names. Like many Of the fem
mime names connected with mythol-
Ogy, the eagle occupied position OF
great respect and even alteration
among the ancients, and his name,
with various suffixes and prefxes. fur
nished many of the cOgnOmens then In
vogue.
In Scotland the word for eagle was
"erne" and the name was found In oil
countries where there were mountains,
the homeland of the king Of birds.
Arnridur, or Arneidur, was the first
of the eagle ladies. She was said to
be the daughter Of Asbiorn, OF the
Hebrides, who was sold to an Ice
lander named Katell Thymr. This
lady had the good fortune to find
quantity of silver sufficient for her
ransom beneath the roots Of tree, but
she decided to remain the wife of
Thymr and goes down in history as
one Of the famous women OF Iceland.
The next step in the evolution of
Ernestine was ArnthOra, and later An
nora, who was the wife of Bernard de
st. Valeyr. Her name was carried In
to the family of BraOse by King Johns
victim, Maude de st. Valery. who
called one of her daughters AnnOra.
The masculine ErnestO. which pre-
coded Ernestine directly, appeared
first in LOmbardy in the year 752,
through Markgraif of Austria Ernst
spread all over Germany after the Ref
ormation, and it was Germany which
finally formed the feminine Ernestine.
Though still in great vogue there, 1t
has Of late years been contracted to
Slime, or Tine, or sometimes Erna.
Bohemia calls her by elaborate Ar
nOstinka. but England and America
took her over as Ernestine, and pre-
serves her rs such.
The mOonstOne is Ernestine's tails
manic gem. 1t is said to bring hel
good fortune and good health and 4
particularly lucky for lovers who, OLD
legend insists, may read the future IN
its depths. Sunday is her lucky da.

The Compass Plant.

On the prairies and plains Of Utah,
Texas and southern Minnesota there
grows wonderful plant which has
proved useful to travellers wandering
ever these vast tracts Of country. 1t
u called the compass plant, or pilot
plant, bacause of popularity In the
growth Of the leaves, which grow al
ternately along the stalk, and point
precisely north and South! The In
dams followed the direction given them
BY these pointing leaves. and told the
white men about 1t. This plant be-
longs to the family Of the Compositae,

odor, somewhat like turpentine, and
sometimes goes by the name Of "tur-

The very latest discovery that has

1t appears that they are finding

1t Is well, in thinking about such a
subject. always to remember that older
people have a weakness for consider

worse.
That is the compliment that matur-
ity pays to itself.
The great trouble is that we don't

when we were small.

supposed to enjoy we didn't really like
