NAME.
ADDRESS
Jam, From “Jamaica.”
Jam seems to take its name from !
Jamaica, and is comparatively a mod- j
ern luxury. Galt, in his "Annals of ;
the Parish," states that the fashion |
of jam making was introduced into ;
Scotland about 1760, when berry
bushes were planted by “some of our
young men that had been sailors com
ing from Jamaica.” and the condiment
wag valued in the first place chiefly as
“gg excellent medicine for a sore
throat.” A writer in Hone’s "Every
day Book.” in 1826, deplored the fact
that jam could not be "purchased at
tha shops as other articles of con-,
sumption are.”
Trees Many Centuries Old.
Probably the oldest trees In Eng
land are yews. There Is, for instnn \
one in the churchyard at Burrington
Coombe, where the famous hymn,
“Rock of Ages," is said to have be- n
written, which is estimated to be it
least sixteen hundred years old. ;nd
there is also a very ancient one in the
churchyard at Stoke Poges, where
Gray wrote his "Elegy."
Yosemite Has Highest Waterfall.
The highest waterfall In the world
is the Cholock cascade, in the Yose
mite, which is 2,364 feet high.
