cidentally suggested that tho loss of his
wages must have been as severe a blow al
most rs the interruption to his health. He
surprised me by saying that he made money
by getting sick and staying sick. He earns
$50 a week when sound. but when sick he
earns $50 week.
"This Is how he does IL: His salary runs
on in the Office in which he works; he be-
longs to three benefit societies In the build
ing, each Of which pays him $40 a week
during illness. and he draws the remaining
$50 in sick benefits from the Freemasons
knights OF Pythias and Odd Fellows. He
pays 25 cents week into each benefit asso-
citation and meets certain assessments made
occasionally by the three secret orders OF
which he is n member. He can draw bene-
fits from the benefit societies as long as he
is sick, but the benefit paying period is linn
tied to 10 weeks by the secret orders. With
one weeks sick earnings my friend pays
the dues for whole year in all the organi-
cations to which he belongs. n-St. Louis

Rare specimens of orchids which are
sought for in distant lands and subjected
to all the risks OF importation are not
cheap Several years ago an English col
lector, Baron Schroeder, paid over 81, 600
for single specimenof Cypripedium stonei,
n native of Borneo. Although possessing
several specimens of this species, the ardent
collector was anxious to keep the dealers
from obtaining possession of it, and thus
paid SO extrayagant a sum to hold it all his
own. There are many orchid enthusiasts
who have longed in vain for the possession
of flower they consider beyond their reach,
a common and erroneous idea being that
these superb beauties of the tropical and
scmitropical world are the luxury of the
very rich, that they only flourish in houses
built specially for them and in tempera-
ture akin TO that OF n Turkish bath, and
that they require the constant supervision
of gardener skilled in their culture
