Sex I'm Flowers.

"A skilled botanist and horticulturist
whose annual displays of rare plants
and flowers are one of the features of
his city conservatory, said: THE mys-
teries of plant life are even more inter
esting and intricate than the secrets of
insect life. The sex in plants and
flowers and trees is just as distinctive as
In the human species, and it is no un-
common thing to observe at the close
of the day or at early morn a dashing
male plant or flower bending it's form
over far enough to kiss the nectar from
the petal lips of it's nearest floral Juno.
Then some of the handsomest and most
delicately formed and tinted plants and
flowers are ruthless and as savage in
their instincts as the cannibals of the
Fiji islands. The entire order of
pitcher plants, notably among them
the beautiful wild duck or Indian
moccasin' plant, whose delicatelv pinl,
shaded purse-like sack is the admira-
ton of all wild flower seekers, owes its
existence to the flies and small insects
which are attracted within its folds bv
the delicately favored moisture of its
cup and snothered and starved to
death by the spasmodic closing of its
outer door, hemming all intruders in as
completely as cell of the old Bastile.
and on these strange feasts the beauti-
full plant lives and thrives. "-Phila-
