The correct name for Hamamelis
virginica Is not witch hazel, but wych
hazel. Our plant has no connection
with the magic of the water hunter.
The blackthorn OF England, Prunus
Spinosa, was the wood used In these
divinations, or whatever these super
stitious practices may be termed.
Hazel had very wide meaning In the
olden times, and the elm, as well as
the nut now known as such, was hazel.
One Of these elms, now known as
Ulmus Montana, was the favorite wood
for making wyches, or provision chests,
and was therefore known as the wych
hazel. In the present day II 10 the
wych elm. Our hamamelis received
from the early settlers the name Of
wych hazel from the resemblance Of
the leaves to those Of the wych hazel
or elm of the Old World. Language
reformers imagining that wych should
be spelled witch are responsible for
the confusion. Wych hazel is the cor.
rect term for our plant. --Meehan's

THE RED CROSS.

They too have heard the drrm-beat,
They follow the bugie's call,
These who are swift with pity
On the field where brave men fall
When the BATTLEFRONT Is silent,
And the echoing thunder dies,
They haste TO the plain red sodden
With the blood OF sacrifice.
The flag that floats above them
Is marked with crimson sign,
Pledge Of great compassion ~,
And the rifted heart Divine.
That once for mans redemption
Knew earth's completest loss.
These 10 the field Of valor
Bring loves immortal cross.
And so they follow the bugle,
And heed the drum-beat's call,
But their erraud Is ons OF pity
They succor the men who fall.

rAe MARCH of rAg DEAD BRIGADE.

No sound disturbs the drowsy dawn,
A forms the dead brigade;
Its silent ranks, In serried lines,
Glide onward toward the springing plness
All phantoms In parade,
Their steps bend not the dropping corn,
These warriors all are ghosts.
In rank and file, with solemn tread,
Their captains marching at the head,
Move on those silent hosts.
From out the tented camp Of death,
Their flag OF peace displayed,
With football soft as dew at morn,
These cohorts sweep the bending corn,
Where battle once was laid.
The mark OF Gods eternal peace
Their countenances bear;
Aud freed from all unholy hate,
They shine with that exalted state
Which heavens angels share.

NEW USES FOR PEANUTS.

Their Oil Comes Into This Country
Labeled virgin Olive OIL
In view of the fact that there is a
superabundance of peanuts raised ev-
cry year in Virginia, North Carolina
and other parts of the south. the sug-.
gestion is made that peanut oil be
used more extensively in pharmacy
and be permitted to take the place.
to a certain extent, of olive oil, says
an exchange. Prof. S. P. Sadtler re-
Gently produced an experimental soda
soap from the oil extracted from
American peanuts. In reporting this
fact he remarked significantly tina. the
bulk of the CASTLE soap made in Mar
settles is made from African peanut
oil. The average grade of American
peanuts is slightly inferior to the East
African peanut in oil-producing value,
but experience has demonstrated the
excellent quality of the American pea
nut oil. Foreign peanut oil comes to
this country in large quantities under
different names; much of it is labeled
virgin olive OIL" Prof. Sadtler says
of his experiments with oil from Vir-
ginia peanuts: THE cold-pressed oil is
of pale yellow color and of pleasant
flavor and odor. A very slight refining
makes from it an agreeable table oil
for salads and other culinary purposes.
1t has already been noted with English
peanut oil land 1 can confirm it from
my experience with the American oiD
that when once freed from the free
acid found in the raw state it does not
tend to become rancid as easily as olive
oil. have exposed samples to strong
sunlight for weeks without developing
the slightest rancidity." There has
been comparatively little attention
given to the production of peanut oil
in this country, and at present it is
not an important element in COM
merce. However, as the chemical COM
position of the peanut becomes better
known, attention is drawn to the food
value of the peanut meal and the pea
nut grits. 1t has been found that they
are richer in heterogeneous principles
than any of the vegetable seed cakes.

There Are Certain Things Which Must

There are one or two principles

work that must be done on Sunday,

Funerals Conducted on Skates.

About fifty miles south Of Berlin. in
the Spreewalde, on the borders of b.
hemia, funerals on the ice are of no
uncommon occurrence. Every one is
perfectly at home on skates. So the
young men, skating, take the ropes at
tached to the sleigh on which the cof-
fin it borne; the old men, women and
children follow, skating behind The
skates used are old-fashioned in char
acter, tied with string. The men wear
black coats and hats on such occasions
but the women vary their costume
with white hats, scarfs, and aprons.
In Iceland the same mode prevails ex-
cept that snowshoes are used in lien
of skates. In Venice, all bodies ara
conveyed in boats to certain islands IN
the Adriatic, used as cemeteries In
kamtchatka the dead are drawn IN
their graves on sleishs by DOGS.
