Fashionable Flowers.

What pity it is that any one class
Of flowers should become fashionable,
Just as if all flowers were not beautiful
in their own way, and far above the
mere chattering patronage of any par
ticular set of admirers. Of all per-
sonal ornaments flowers are the most
precious far too valuable and ever
lasting to be spoken of in the same
breath with the productions of the jew
eler or tie milliner, and yet we are told
that orchids are the fashionable bridal
bouquets, because some one or two
daughters of millionar.es carry them.
Very often nothing less graceful or
more inappropriate could be chosen.
The idea with many seems to be SIM
ply to find the most rare and unique
spec es of natural flowers, independent
OF beauty; if they cost much and are
rare, that is quite sufficient. The over
strained effort always betrays itself,
and orchids were never yet more highly
valued by people of refined taste than
were the wild violet, or the hedge rose.
No Ohaucer, no Herrick, no Words
worth has sung of the orchids as they
have sung of daisies, of daffodils, or of
the modest snowdrops, but they have
often been exh, bited as the Haunting
decorations of those who have no high
or apprec;at on OF them than that they
were costly and so to some extent the
ensign OF wealth rather than that of
beauty. 1t is significant fact that
just at present. the highest and the
best cultured people are growing hardy
flowers in preference to orchids

THE WHITE ANT.
A Destructive Insect Whose Habitat
India and Africa.

a Destructive Insect Whose Habitat IL
India and Africa.
One may never see the insect, pos
sibly, in the flesh, for it lives under
ground, but its ravages confront one at
every turn. You build your house, per-
haps, and for few months fancy you
have pitched upon the one solitary site
in the country where there are no white
ants. But one day suddenly the door
post totters and lintels and rafters come
down together with crash. You look
at a section of the wrecked tlmbers and
discover that the whole inside is eaten
clean away. The apparently solid
logs of which the rest of the house is
built are now mere cylinders of bark,
and through the thickest of them YOU
could push your little finger Furni-
ture, tables, chairs, chests of drawers,
everything made of wood is inevitably
attacked, and in single night strong
trunk is often riddled through and
through, and turned into matchwood.
There is no limit, in fact, to the depre-
dations by these insects, and they will
eat book, or leather, or cloth, or any,
thing, and in many parts of Africa be-
heve If man lay down to sleep with
wooden leg it would be heap of saw
dust I'm the morning. So much feared
10 this insect now, that no one in GER
tain parts of India and Africa ever at
tempts to travel with such thing as a
wooden trunk. On the Tanganyika
plateau have camped ON ground which
was as hard as adamant, and as inno-
cent OF ants apparently as the pavement
OF st. Pauls. and Weakened next morn
ing to find stout wooden box almos-
gnawed to pieces, Leather port
manteaus share the same fate, and the
only substances which seem TO defy the

The total value of the green fruit re.
ceived in New York by importation
during the past year amounts to So
O67sS61, while the duties received ae-
gregated $690,SS2.4l. The increase IN
value over 1888 is $685., 494, with a de-
crease In customs duties of 1854, 49,. So
There was increase in all the principal
varieties imported, except in oranges
from the Mediterranean, the falling off
in that line of importation being prob
ably due.to the increased production
of this fruit in the South, as well as the
constantly growing supply from the
West India Islands. The fruit from
nearer home is just as good and ar
rives in a much better condition.-N
