One Of the largest and most magnifi-
cent flowers in the world is the Raffiesia
Arnold. This wonderful plant was
discovered in 1918 by Sir Stamford
Raffiesia, governor of q settlement In
Sumatra, who on o iournes Of explora-
ton through that little known island,
took with him DR.. Arnoid, an ardent
young naturalist, whose drawings and
descriptions of this gigantic flower we're
left unfinished at his death, which occur
red shortly after, but were preserved and
perfected by his patron, and the memory
of both is preserved by nasnlng it Rattle
STA Arnold.
The most striking feature in this
flower is its enormous size. 1t is COM

across, of brick-red colur. but covered
with numerous irregular, yellowish- white
swcllings The petals surround large

Another cause of wonder to the little

that they could find no leaves connected
with it. 1t sprang from sFssmall, lcafless,

separate from the air the food needed
for the growth of the plant. Without
them there could be no wood, no
flowers, no fruit, no seea. There are,
however, strange plants which are actu-
ally leafless. making up sfor this want
by using the leaves Of sothers. Such
plants are called PARASITES. be-
cause they feed ON sthe nutritive
juices OF others. Thrnsting their
roots into the living tissues of other
plants, instead of into the earth, they
appropriate the prepared food of these
plants, and at once apply it to their own
purposes for the production of stem or
