The Japanese Wax Tree.

Japan wax" as it is called, ls oh
tained from tree. Rhus succedanea
which Is found In Japan, China and
throughout the East Indies in general
In the Japanese language it is called
haje or haze. The tree commences to
bear fruit when FIVE or six years old
and increases its product every year
till at the age of fifty years a single
tree will produce $50 to 400 pounds of
berries, from which seventy to eighty
pounds Of wax can be obtained.
The wax Is formed In the middle Of
the berry. between the skin and the
seed, like the pulp Of a grape. 1t is
extracted by boiling the berries in wa
ter and allowing 1t to cool. when the
wax separates from the skin and seed,
sinking to the bottom Of the vessel In
solid cake. The specific gravity of
this wax IS .O7O and It's melting point
13l degrees T. 1t is largely used, eli
ther alone or mixed with tallow, by
the Chinese in the manufacture of
candles
This tree should not be confounded
with the "tallow tree" of China. which
has pIth of solid tallow in all trees

The kicker will find that he keeps pace
with the prevalent American disease,
dyspepsia. All kickers may not be
dyspeptics. but all dyspeptics are surely
kickers. They are everlasting fault
finders. Nothing goes right for them
in the family or in business. There Is
always dead Fly in their ointment. It
is miserable condition for the dyspep-
tic and his friends lac really cant help

limit Of endurance. His ears are like
megaphones magnifying every little
sound to the shock Of thunder. His
eyes lose sense of perspective and he
sees mole-hills as mountains. He is
suspicious, Jealous, unreasonable and
obstinate; and all these things are only
symptoms of the disease which Is starv-
ing and weakening the entire nervous
system and reaching out toward heart,
liver lungs, Kidneys and other organs.

December's Names.

December. so called from being the
tenth month when the year began in
March, has probably had more names
conferred upon 1t than any other Of the
twelve into which our year Is now d.
vided. Among the early Saxons 1t was
called Winter MOnat, or winter month.
After their conversion to Christianity
they called 1t Heligh Monat, or holy
month, In honor of the birth Of Christ.
In later days in Germany it was called
Christ Monat for the same reason.
Eires used to be lighted for warmth In
this month. and the want Of chimneys
used to cause too obvious inconven-
fence. which led to It's being called Fu-
mosus, or smoky. 1t was also dubbed
Canus, or hoary, from the SHOWS or
hoarfrosts which then generally whit,
ened the higher grounds.
