The name BY which the Hebrews
knew the Red ssa--the Yam suph, or
sea of weeds Of sedge-would appear
to give little indication Of the reason
for the title which has been applied
to this body Of water in later years.
But, as a matter Of fact, two terms
have common origin. Unlike the
Beautiful Hue Danube" which is
really dirty yellowish brown, the
Red sea is realty red-the color being
due to the prevalence Of minute
bright red plant, kind Of seaweed.
This plant Is said to be so small that
25,OOO.O 600 can live and thrive within
a single cubic inch Of water. There
fore, instead Of being notified with
red, the sea appears in many cases
to be of a scarlet shade. A red dye,
which tradition says was used hun
dreds Of years ago. is made from this
weed, but, in the places where it is
not found, the waters Of the Red sea
are as blue or green as those of any
other body Of water.-Youths Com
