ADELAIDE

a DELA1DE has an heroic signif-
"A canoe; it means noble cheer. 1t
is distinctly a Teutonic name, coming
from Adilo or Odilo. Ado and Aldo
are still in use as proper names, but
other syllables have. been added for
the more modern version.
Curiously, Adele and Adela occur
very early in history, unlike most
names, which show quaint and ONE
times almost un~recognizable forms in
their beginnings. Adal was a prefix
used frequently among the Teutonic
races and Adalheit or Adelchen were
diminutives given to the daughters of
the family. 1t was translated to mean
noble estate" and thus the princess
of each little Frankish duchy was the
'nobleness thereof"
All the feudal princes of the Tenth
and Eleventh centuries seem to have
had an Adelheid to offer in marriage
and they have Latinized her in all
manner of ways. The French have
made great use of all forms of the
name. The Teutonic races, in honor
perhaps of the Italian Queen Adelaide,
whose adventures, before her mar
riage with Emperor Ohio, were so
curious-preferred Adelaide to all
other forms. From them England re-
ceived it again with their good Queen
Adelaide, whose popularity made 1t
so frequent. Italy calls her Adalaida
and Alisa, and France makes her AIDE
line.
Arelaide's jewel is the turquoise,
which though the simplest of stones,
possesses rare power to protect Its
wearer from harm and is said to break
at the approach of grave danger. Fri
day is Adelaide's lucky day and 8
her lucky number.
T~ennyson, who omitted very few
feminine names from his list of poems
to fair women, writes of Adeline:
Mystery of mysteries,
Family smiling Adelfne,
Scarce of earth nor all divine,
Nor unhappy, nor at rest,
But beyond expression fair,
Thy rose lips and full blue eyes
Take the heart from out my breast.
