A Little Flower Worth $4,000.

A remarkable lucky find of valu-
able orchid has resulted in bringing q
certain amount of fame and a certain
amount of money TO the lucky im-
porter. This is Mr.. Sander of st. Al
bans, London, England, whose name
is well known TO all who take an in
terest in these parasitic plants.
Three years ago he imported some
specimens of Cypripedrum, or Lady's
Slipper, the commonest and cheapest
of the orchid tribe. In TIE lot he
found one which proved in Towering
to be golden yellow instead of green,
as usual. Knowing it must be valu-
able, he divided the plant into two
portions, one of which he sold 10 Mr..
r. II. Measures for $3.50, and the
other he sent to auction, where it was
bought BY Baron Schroeder for $500.
Mr. Measures divided his half into
four parts, one of which he sold to
Mr.. r. j. Measures of CamberwelI,
the second to Mr.. F. l.. Anne of Bos-
ton, Mass, the third he kept for him.
self, and the fourth Messrs. Sander,
the original owners of the whole
plant, have bought for 10 less sum
than $1250. According to the price
paid for an eighth of the original
plant it would appear that its first
value was $4,000.
Baron Schroeder is one of the most
notable collectors in the country, and
at his place in Egham, Surrey, he has
a collec ion of these plants which must
have cost him something like $780,

of the species Cypripedium Stonei for
$500, and other sales are recorded in
which specimens have fetched nearly
if not quite as large prices. New

Fools, philosophers and preachers, and
host Of ether tea.hers,
Have been trumping up prescriptions for
producing happiness,
Each warranted, il shaken and regularly
taken.
To result in perfect heaven, perfect peace
and nothing less
This has satisfied the masses, but there are,
among the classes,
Another sort of people, and I stand here
as their friend,
To be miserable they are yearning, to misery
they are turning,
No method can escape them that promises
that end.
Now my pity-seeking winners, my persistent
sad repiners,
\ good stiff resolution is the first thing
YOU must heed;
Start up determination that shall frighten
all creation
And vow you will have misery sufficient
for your need.

balmy breezes playing,
Or the bounties of kind Providence, or
natures beauties fair;
Treat all such insinuations as you would
your poor relations.
But keep one eye fixed OIL misery and you
surely will get there.
Let your jealousy awaken; think you are
the most fOrsaken,
Unappreciated mortal that ever walked
the earth.
Search for people in the mircs, for the vii
lains, cheats and liars,
And your purpose viii moi fail you, but
yield you its full worth.
Shut your eyes to all that's fair, search for
blackness everywhere
Except within your own heart, for that
alone is white.
Hunt for evil, and pursue 1t for the joy it
gives to view it,
And I'll warrant you that misery shall
walk with you day and night.

Why Raindrons Do Not XIII.

A falling body moves much more
rapidly as it approaches the ground
than it did when it commenced to fall.
Its motion is, therefore, termed ga
uniformly accelerated notion" in
other words, if body being moving
at certain velocity at the expiration
of one second from the point of time
at which it was allowed 10 fall, it will
be moving twice as fast at the expira-
ton of two seconds, and so on. Ex-
periments have shown that the rate
per second at which bodies acquire
velocity in falling through the air is
thirty-two feet per second at the end
of the first second after it has dropped
from the hand; at the end of the next
second with a velocity of sixty-four
feet, and at the end of the third at
the rate of ninety-six feet per second,
and so on. The velocity of body at
any period of its fall may DO ascer-
tanned by multiplying the rate of mo-
ton at the end of the first second by
the number of seconds it has been
falling. The velocity being known,
the space through which it has fallen
may be asccrtained by multiplying the
velocity of that period by the number
of seconds during which it has been
falling, and dividing the result by
two. These rules only apply with
absolute correctness when body falls
Gin vacuo," for the resistance of the
air materially retards the velocities,
especially when they become consid-
cradle, and when the body has great
bulk in proportion to its weight.
Were it not for this resistance, every
raindrop, descending as it does from
a height of many hundred feet, would
strike with a force as fatal as that of
a rifle .-[Brooklyn Eagle.

Face GroMth.

Careful measurements, made on
persons of both sexes by Professor
G. NJ. West, have so far yielded some
definite results which are published as
preliminary; further details will no
doubt be forthcoming later. In the
case of the female face, the results go
10 show that there are three distinct
periods of growth, the first of which
ends at about the seventh year, the third
beginning about the age of fifteen.
The abrupt transition from one period
to another is indicated by the very
slow growth of some children until
the ages of eight aud fourteen, when
a rapid development often occurs.
From the fifth TO the tenth year the
average growth appears to be about
6.5 millimetres. and from this time
little advance is made, The maximum

Our genial friend and fellow-ci citizen,
Colonel w. c. Winslow, will excuse
the mention of a wonderful and
curious trick of nature in a litter of
kittens that recently increased the cat
family at his house. 1t is said that
there were fourteen in the family, the
offspring of one mother, of varions
hues and stripes, as kittens generally
are. Some had tails and some had
none; six heads on three bodies, and
six feet each on two. The limbs

The Derivation OF Dollar.

Few persons have ever troubled
themselves to think of the derivation
Of the word dollar. 1t is from the
German thai (valley), and came into
use in this way some 800 years ago.
There is little silver mining city or
district in Northern Bohemia called
Joachimsthal or Joachim's Valley.
The reigning Duke of the region au-
thorized this city in the sixteenth cen
tury to coin a silver piece which was
called 'joachimsthaler." The word
'joachim" was soon dropped and the
name 'thaler" only retained. The
piece went into general use in Ger
many and also in Denmark, where the
photography was changed to "daicr,"
whence it came into English, and was
adopted by our forcfathers WITH some
changes in the spelling.-[San Fran

The Population Of the World.

Or course any attempt 10 give an
estimate Of the total population of
the world must be made without lay
ing any claim to such close accuracy
as is possible in compiling the popu-
lation Of the civilized countries, which
have perfected a system of careful
enumeration Of the people, still such
estimates are made, and us the nnm-
Der of countries taking accurate GEN.
suses of their population has greatly
increased, the element of pure con-
lecture has largely diminished, par
ticularly as more frequent commune
cation with the -barbarous regions
has enabled statisticians to estimate
with much better chance of success
the poulations of those portions of
the world where 10 actual enumera-
ton has been taken.
The percentage of the total popula-
ton of the world, which has been
enumerated with greater of less de-
gree of precision, is said to be fifty
teven per cent. Of the whole The
population of the earth is put by re-
cent German statistics at nearly L.
$50, 900, 900. The increase of total
population since 1882 has been in
round numbers about 10000, 900, or
at the rate of between 5000, 600 and
5000, 900 a year 1t appears from
the statistics given that the density of
population is greatest in Europe,
which has ninety-four inhabitants to
the square mile. II is next greatest
in Asia, where there are forty-seven
inhabitants TO the square mile. Africa
comes third, with fourteen inhabitants
TO the square mile, and then follow
the Oceanic Islands, America and
Australia, with ten, eight and one to
the square mile respectively.
According to these figures there is
room in the new world for great in
crease in population. If the figures
for Europe for "a inhabitants to the
square mile be accepted as the max.
imum, which does not necessarily fol-
low. America, with only eight persons
20 the square mile. could support u
times as many people as at present.
A long time must therefore elapse be-
fore the new world becomes as dense
ly populated as Europe.
Despite the rapid advance of Austria
ia, that vast British possession has
only one inhabitant per square mile.
which indicates very clearly that
Australia is susceptible of vast de-
gree of development before there need
be any danger of overlooking -

Dead Sea Water an Antiseptic.

The discovery has recently been
made that the water of the Dead Sea
is powerful antiseptic An expert
menting chemist recently tried it upon

orders, and found that the microbes
were killed inside of forty-eight hours.
Whether it will prevent bacterial

mined, but so far everything is in its
favor, and it may soon come to pass
