words. as canoe, calumet, wigwam toma-
hawk and pemmican, are becoming classical
English terms. Maize originated in the
West Indies; ''cob," expressing its head de-
priyed of the seeds, and ''shucks' for It's
husks, are probably Indian words, as IS the
widely known tobacco" ''Guano" Is Pc
ruvian for dung" Corn" is employed in
the United States for IndiaI corn. "Por-
ridge" made of oatmeal, is called "mush,
or oatmeal mush," or simply oatmeal,

coffee or beefsteak, as is cheese with apple
