Thanks, I never knew that STE was female saint.
Just to explain the other one: normally PUTURE, acc. to Chambers (not in OED)"forester's claim to food for himself & his animals from within a forest", prob. comes from Latin for porridge! How's that for educative!
I suppose that is short for La Sainte frameshift
