1. A tree of the genus Rhizophora, chiefly
R. mucronata (R. Mangle), the common man-
grove, abounding on tropical shores in both
hemispheres. It is a low tree of most singular habit,
remarkable for a copious development of adventitious
roots, which arch out from the lower part of the trunk,
and at length descend from the branches; it is peculiar
also in that its seed germinates in the fruit, sending down
its radicle into the mud, sometimes a distance of sev-
eral feet, before detachment from the parent. By these
means the mangrove spreads thickly over the tidal mud,
forming impenetrable and highly malarial bogs, hun-
dreds of miles in length. The wood is valuable for fuel,
for piles, etc., and is susceptible of a beautiful polish.
The astringent bark is useful in medicine and for tanning.
The fruit is of a dry and coriaceous texture. See cut in
preceding column.

2. Another plant of similar habit, especially
a plant of the genus Avicennia. They are lit-
toral trees, widely diffused in the tropics, throwing out a
tangled mass of arching roots above ground, and sending
up abundant asparagus-like shoots from the underground
roots. The seed also germinates as it ripens. A. offici
nalis (including A. tomentosa), called white mangrove, ex-
tends to Australia and New Zealand, the manawa of the
Maoris, mistakenly reported to yield an aromatic gum.

months, or years. The prognosis is not very unfavorable.
The cases issue in recovery, in death by exhaustion and in-
tercurrent disease, and a considerable proportion in per-
manent imbecility.

tic, Buddhistic, Zoroastrian, and various other sources. These it attempted to combine with Christianity, and it is generally classed among Gnostic sects. Its theology was dualistic, representing the conflict between light and darkness, and including belief in the inherent evil of matter. Its morality was professedly ascetic, but profligacy of life and cruel or immoral ceremonial were generally attributed to it in both its earlier and its later forms. It had an organized priesthood, and recognized a distinction between its esoteric class (the "elect" or "perfect") and the "hearers." It originated in Persia, but soon extended into the Roman empire, and existed as late as the seventh century. The Paulicians, Albigenses, Catharists, etc., developed it into new forms, retaining many of its features, and hence were styled "New Manicheans." The title Manichean, or New Manichean, was an epithet used opprobriously in the controversies of the middle ages. Manicheanism, Manichæanism (man-i-kē'anizm), n.

quality, in philos., a quality intelligible in its own nature

dent, Manifest, Obvious, patent, palpable, unmistakable,
conspicuous. The first five words agree in representing the
object as though viewed with the eye. What is clear can

be seen without dimness; what is plain can be seen by
any one at the first glance, without search or study. Evi
dent suggests something more of a mental process, but no
difficulty in seeing that the thing is true. Manifest is a
degree stronger than evident, the mind getting the truth
which lies so directly in our way that we cannot help
as by an intuition. Obvious by derivation applies to that
coming upon it and seeing it; that which is obvious needs
no pointing out or explaining. We speak of a clear case
of self-deception; a duty that is plain; an evident mis-
take; a manifest misunderstanding; an obvious inference,
not needing to be actually put into words.

Manihot (man'i-hot), n. [NL. (Adanson, 1763).]
1. A genus of euphorbiaceous plants of the tribe
Crotone and the subtribe Adrianea. The calyx of
the staminate flowers has imbricated lobes and is often col
ored, the stamens are 10 in number and have anthers at-

tached at the back, and the styles are spreading. They are
tall herbs or shrubs, with alternate leaves which are undi-
vided or often palmately 3- to 7-lobed or -parted, and monce-
cious apetalous flowers, which are quite large and grow in
terminal or axillary racemes. There are about 80 species,
all natives of tropical and subtropical America; several
of them, however, are largely cultivated elsewhere. The
genus is of great importance for the food-products de
rived from the roots of several species, especially M. uti
lissima, the bitter cassava, and M. Aipi, the sweet cassava,
which by some are regarded as varieties of one species.
See Brazilian arrowroot (under arrowroot), cassava, manioc,
and tapioca.

the stole. It is marked with a cross and generally em

broidered and fringed. The maniple is worn by prelates, priests, deacons, and subdeacons, hanging from the left sleeve of the alb, fastened near the wrist, or attached by strings, pins, or a button. It is assumed by the celebrant after the alb and girdle, and before the stole. A bishop assumes it at the Indulgentiam. In Anglican churches maniples are worn, as in the medieval church, three or four feet in length; in the Roman Catholic Church they are now much shorter. The maniple seems to have first come into use in the eighth century, and was originally a piece of white linen used as a handkerchief. Till the twelfth cen. tury and later it continued to be held in the hand. There

is no corresponding vestment in the Eastern Church,
though some writers have confounded the epimanikion
with it. Other names formerly given to the maniple were
fanon or phanon, mantile, manutergium, mappula or map-
pa, and sudarium.
