Wich he did SUMMERTIME BY D. C. PEATTIE. Ginseng. Late July is the time when the ginseng comes to flower. A curlous and with each leaf divided 1 five leaflets arranged like the fingers on the hand, the way black- berry leaves are, and inconspicuous greenish flowers, followed by bright crimson frults, there is little about its modest appearance that would help one to realize that it has had as romantic a history as attaches to any native plant. Once common in our her woods, it has now become ather rare, due to the insane demand | for it, and is now found only here {and there alons the upper Potoma Few plants, except the spices, hav. rated at a more fabulous value, when their intrinsic worth is considered, than the ginseng roots, for it is the roots which are sought Ginseng, often called “sang’ by the mountain whites of the Southern States, has for generations proved lucrative trade and the ng diggers” are an integral part of the picturesque life of early American life, and even today many hundreds of persons galn a living by digging ginseng. Yet it is not the Americans who use the ginseng, but the Chinese. There is a species of ginseng native to China (probably the name ginseng is a corruption of .some Chinese term), but the demand for it there had nearly exterminated it when our native species was discovered. It is said that the great French botanist, Michaux, who explored our country and gave the mimosa to our gardens, taught to collect and the Oriental prepare for marke W possible benefit the Chinese really derive from ginseng it is hard to imagine. The roots have a mild aromatic, splcy taste, like sarsaparilla at_most, might act as a mild topic. But the masses are convinced that there is nothing that ginseng root will not cure. The reason is probably based on the doctrine of signatures, a superstitious phase of medieval botany, which taught that every plant bore a marking showing what it was good for. A plant with ginseng | & heart-shaped leaf, by this doctrine, is good for the heart, and so forth. As the root of ginsenz is usually forked and looks, roughly, like the two legs and the trunk of a man, it is believed by the Chinese that, as the root looks like a whole man, it will cure anything that you have the matter with you, no matter where it hits you. Isn't it too bad the Chinese aren’t right? Tomato Preserves. Take as many sound red or yellow plum-shaped tomatoes as desired to preserve and weigh them. Wash and prick with a needle to prevent their bursting.. Put the same number of pounds of sugar as of tomatoes over them. Let them stand overnight. Next morning add enough water to over them. Boil slowly until the {fruit is clear and the sirup is almost jellied. Before taking up add to each |bound’ one sliced lemon. Dried Plum Paste. Cook some tart, juicy plums in their own juice until soft. Remove the stones and skins by pressing through a sleve. Weigh the fluid and cook for an_ hour. Add half as much sugar as fruit. After the sugar dissolves allow the fruit to boil for a minute, then pour into earthen dishes to the depth of one-fourth of an inch. Dry slowly in a cool oven. Pack into jars for use in puddings or cakes, or sauce. Our practice of calling a sulking or | an angry person “cross” goes back to | the pictorial representation of a cross, its two lines crossing or in opposition | | to each other. It was this physical disagreement of the horizontal and the vertical line, no doubt, which inspired the old expression or colloquialism, | “don’t cro him."” | Tossing” some one meant an al- tercation. Hence the term “cross” to frame of mind.

RAcCre TRY LEMON JUICE TO WHITEN SKIN The only harm less way to bleach the skin white is to mix the juice of two lemons with three ounces of Or- chard White, which any druggist will supply for a few cents. Shake well in a bottle, and you have a whole quarter-pint of the most. wonderful skin whitener, soft- ener and beautifier. Massage this sweetly lemon bleach into the face. neck, arms and hands. It can not irritate. Famous stage beauties use it to bring that clear, youthful skin and rosy white complexion; aleo as a freckle, sunburn and tan bleach. You must mix this remarkable lotion yourself. It can not be bought ready to use because it acts best immediately after it is prepared. _Qrchard Whitg fragrant SILK DYE Keep Silks New Why wear faded silks when in a few minuites— with no trouble — you can dye your dainty un- derthings like new?
