	I wanted to hang a kitchen witch from a ceiling lamp so I bought a
nut with a loop on it to hold up the glass cover to the lamp. Since this witch
came with strings attached I hung her till dead from the loop. Then I read
the description that came with my purchase:

	MALE LOOP AND/OR FEMALE LOOPS

	No Canopy can be installed without a suitable Loop and
	the installation of a fixture requires fastening the chain of
	your fixture onto a Loop. The Loop provides the only
	possible passage-way through which you can slip (or loop)
	the wires of your fixture into the cavity of your Canopy to
	connect the wires to the lead wires of your outlet.
	A Loop should normally match the fixture it is used with.
	But for lack of a perfect match Brass Finish is universal.
	On Canopies with a 7/16" center hole, with mounting
	holes, you will use the male threaded Loop and fasten it
	to the Canopy with a Lockwasher and Locknut. On all
->	others, you would require a "4" Cross Bar-Hickey and
->	Adapter Kit" and a 2-inch 1/8-IP Nipple and a female Loop.
->	Also, male and female Loops are useful components for
	hanging Planters, Shelves, and many other applications
	of interest to Model Makers and Hobbyist.
