This superstition attaches to the plants cultivated In *ardens and as house plants, which are not geraniums at all, hut belong to the genus pelargonium of South Africa The magical qualities of this plant were transferred to It along with the name from the true geranium, the word geranium being a Greek word meaning crane’s-bill, a name given to the true geranium because of the long, projecting beak of the seed cap sule. In fact, crane’s-bill Is the com mon name for the true geranium. Now the crane was for long ages a bird of mystery. At a certain sea­ son the crane disappeared and at a certain season he reappeared, always flying In a V shape. This mystery as to the crane’s place and manner of breeding, and the weird dances they Indulge In at the time of their love- f C o p yrigh t. ) making caused a wealth of mythology -o - and folklore to grow up around them It was not until t8W that It was dis covered that the crane sought the shores of the Arctic sen to lay Its egg* and rear Its young. Among the ancients there was a be lief that forms of plant life were In some cases transformed Into forms of animal life. In the mystery which hung over the propagation of the crane the peculiar form of tie seed capsule of the geranium caused It to be looked upon with suspicion, and to the plant were assigned some of the mystic attributes which pertained to the crane which was known to be antagonistic to snakes and flies When the pelargonium came to be | called In popular parlance "geranium' —crane’s bill—the superstition wen: ( (c, by M cC lu ra N ew n p ap er Syndleata. > with the name.
