hid from view by vegetation, the finest
specimens are frequently found.
After they are gathered the bulbs must be
packed carefully and transported to the
coast, and then shipped to America. The
cost Of getting one load Of orchid bulbs to
civilized communities is great, and then
there is great loss on the way. Natives
cannot as rule be entrusted to collect the
orchids, for their knowledge of the different
kinds is very limited. They are only acces-
sories to the work, and in this way their
knowledge Of the woods makes them valu-

NEW WAY TO PULL TEETH,

Principle of the New Electrical Extractor
The Current Travels Faster Than the
Pain and Gets to the Brain First-It Is a
Demonstrated Success.
WRITTEN FOR THE p1sPArcH,1
One of the latest achievements In cleo
trical discovery is interesting to every hu.
man being, from the baby in the cradle ito
the aged person who is down to his last
tooth 1t is devise for painlessly extract
ing teeth with the aid of electricity. OF
course you can now indulge in the luxury
ofso-called Laughing gas" when you feel
inclined to part with cuspid or molar; or
you can have local an@sthetic applied in
the neighborhood of the offender, and in
either case you may not feel the awful
wrench of the forceps and the mighty MUSCLE
of the dentist. But these grand improve
ments on the old-fashioned tooth-pulling
agony have certain drawbacks. The aver
age person doesn't relish the idea of having
the senses practically knocked out of HIM
as preliminary to pull at his tooth. The
particular person objects to the sense of
strangulation that begins with an@sthetics,
and often ends with hours of discomfort, TO
say the least.
But now we are about to be blessed with
an electrical contrivance that NAV possibly
cause you to be as clamorous for more tooth
pulling as was Oliver Twist for more soup.
Ghe appliance is called, with amazing
breadth of meaning, vibrator" 1t has
recently been tested in London, and the
doctors and dentistry seem to be as greatly
pleased with it as Miss would be with
new spring hat. At the Institute of Medi-
cal Electricity teeth were extracted, in the
presence of scores of doctors, dentists and
scientists, with no apparent pain to the
patients, and without any seeming subse-
quent discomfort such as often follows the
use of an@sthetics.
The operation of the vibrator" is curious
and suggestive. Its salient feature seems to
be sort OF race between pain and cleo
tricity from tooth to brain. 1t has been
demonstrated, SO we are told BY those who
ought to know, that pain travels from
tooth to the brain in one-sixtietn of a Sec
ond. If you have ever had tooth pulled
in the old fashion you will not dispute the
gait here given. So, when the dentist
makes that awful lunge with his forceps, the
pain OF contact with the tooth gets to the
brain instantly, as it appears to you. But
the wise men who know a good deal about
and nerves and pain tr ransmis-
sion say that electricity travels from tooth
to brain st the rate of 420 times secomd---
seven times faster than pain, Although
tooth agony travels fast enough to suit any

was told recently, says writer in the
Boston Trayeller, that the safe deposit COM
panies, which are now so prosperous all over
the civilized world, bad their origin in New
York in an accident. A man who Kept
restaurant near one of tine markets used to
take care of the cash boxes of the market
men who were his regular customers. One
day he was at an auction, and seeing large
safe going for a very low price he suddenly
thought it would be good thing to buy the
safe and fit 1t up in compartments which he
would rent to the marketmen for enough to
cover the cost
He acted on the idea, and his patrons
gladly accepted the improvement upon the
old method Of caring for their cash. An
enterprising fnsncier heard of the new idea,
paid q visit to the restaurant in question,
and then set to work and formed safe de-
posit company with an Office and storage
vaults on Broadway. 1t was successful
from the start, and has had numerous sue
cessors in the business Of the safe keeping
of yaluables.

INTERPRETATIONS.

Happiness full swiftly wends

But too swiftly has 1t passed

price in the market that was ridiculously
large compared with Its true merits. This
was when hybridization was new and the art
was not generally known, but since it has
been practiced so universally the hybrids

can no longer command good prices unless
they have special merit. But with the care

The collectors IN the forests who expect to
see great displays of orchid bloom are soon
disappointed. They are countless in num-

conspicuous flowers, or such as possess no
brilliancy Of color. Even experience is re-
quired to find these, and the unframed eye
will overlook them in the profusion of
climbing vegetation and in the dense foliage
of the forests of second growths, while in
the primeval forests they are only found on
the tops Of the trees hundreds of feet above
