On the ORIGIN OF "syfaxing."
C\ew York SUM-


To the Editor of the Sun: Sir.-I am a
little surprised that none of your older
readers have thus far been able to give
YOU the derivation OF the argot word
"syfaxing," meaning "courting." The
late Professor Maurice Kirby. who died
n few months ago. was one of the most
famous educators OF youth in Kentucky.
He was OF Irish descent, and at his death
was principal OF the Boys High Schooi
at Louisville. He was a man OF ripe
and sound schoarsSp, with a curious
tendency 20 make GO .rslons in odd direc-
tions. j knew him for thirty years.
About ten years ago, in a conversation In
his room concerning this same verb
"syfaxing,' he told me that when he
was a boy he had been told 1t was de-
rived from the word "sifac," a sacred
animal OF the family OF Lemurideae, in
Madagascar, as you Will find from any
natural history.
Now, the lemurs go abroad only at
night and in the gioaming. All persons
were at liberty 10 scare any OF them
away. except the "sifac," which was
sacred. 1t is also the habit Of lovers
to wander abroad at night, especially
I'm the country. Hence they were
"sifacs" GHOST wanderers at night.
When two Of them were "syfaxing." or
Counting" they were sacred, and there
fore nobody must interrupt or annoy
them. He said, further, that the word
had followed in the wake of Irish school
masters. and it was his idea that it was
of Irish importation, and had probably
come through the Irish emigrants to the
East Indies. OF course. to one who does
not know what a "sifac' Is, the word
conveys nothing; but when you do know.
1t is expressive and comprehensive. As
the Lemurldeae are Of the monkey family,
IT is perhaps more expressivey. If vul-
carly. put in the modern vernacular by
the term "monkeying." y. Il. y.

Itching,
Burning,
Eczema

Is the external indication OF con-
dition of the blood which produces a
fiery irritation almost unbearable. II Is
mistake 10 think that this local irrita-
ton is the disease itself-it is simply an
evidence OF disordered condition of the
blood. The seat OF the disease is III the
blood, and this is why the various salves
ard ointnents usually applied have no
effect whatever. They cannot possibly
reach the origin of the trouble; only a
blood remedy can do that. S. S. S. is
without ar equal for blood diseases, and
promptly and permanently cures Eczema
and removes all faint.
Much torture could be avoided if the
first itching symptoms were needed and
course of S.S.S. taken promptly, as ap-
parently insignificant skin irritations
usually develop into the worst form
OF Eczema unless properly treated.
It matters not what other treatment
has been tried in vain, S. S. S. always
gets at the seat of the disease, and
forces it out.
Mr.. William Armstrong, an old resi-
dent aud highly respected citizen OF
De Pere, Wis, writes Oh April Ist, 1896.

"The extent of my su1erings can be

treatment partially helped me, but the
disease shortly returned. I went 20
Florida, thinking that change Of cii-
