QUEER FACTS ABOUT oRcH1ns


 The life of an orchid hunter combines in itself all the most sensational feat ures of exploration in untrodden dis tricts, often infested by ferocious beasts and by even more savage na- tives and in many ceses highly mala- rious and disease laden. The rarer or chids are generally found in the most inaccessible spots, and in the densest and most marshy jungles. Even the natives avoid the districts into which the intrepid orchid hunter penetrates l in search of his floral quarry. | few years ago eight orchid hunters met at Tamatave, and then separated in seach of specimens Within a year only one of them survived and he had spent months in the most pestilential swamps from which he emerged with his health permantly impaired. One of the others had been captured by the native priests, who drenched him with oil and burned him to death on their altar.
 The expense of collecting the orchids and getting them at last into the sales- room is very great For example fine orchid Is found in very out of the way part of colombia After being gathered the plants are wired to sticks and nailed inside boxes. These boxes are conveyed on a Journey of several days to Bogota, whence another six days journey takes them to Honda, where they are placed on rafts and conveyed down the Magdalena River to Savanilla-a fortnight's journey where the steamer Is awaited.
 When at last after heavy outlay, the consignment reaches England, quite half the specimens will be dead, and in many cases the whole of them will be too far gone for recovery. The orchid importer has always to be pre- pared for heavy losses.
 Twenty-seven thousand valuable plants were sent home on one occasion from Colombia by MT. Roezl, and of these only two survived the voyage. They were sold for 40 guineas each not a high price when one considers

 purely speculative. Its species is in most cases readily determined, but 1t may present some variation which will greatly enhance it's value. For exam pie, a. certain orchid with a purple bloom may be worth about five shill- ings, but an example of the same species with white flowers will realize G100 at auction. The value of a plant depends upon its rarity and novelty even more than upon it's beauty.
 Many years ago an orchid, of quite new and unknown specie, arrived in the packing In which some foreign plants were sent home. No one knew where it came from, and for a long time 1t continued unique. Orchid hunt CTS sought everywhere for it, but not till seventy years later was it found.
 Another orchid arrived in 1854 with out any known place or orign, and not persistent search, its na- tive habitation has not been found yet.
 Some years ago two orchids were found in the Geological Gardens on a heap of rubbish. They came in the packing with some South American but their place of origin has not yet been discovered.-( (Harmsworth [ ondon Magazine

An Artist on Womnn's Dress.

Philadelphia Telegraph.
M. Van de Vede the Belgian artist. re-
Gently lectured at Vienna before a large
and distinguished audience upon the re-
form of womens dress. He attacked the
creators of fashionable attire, who neglect
the rational object Of clothing i'm order to
secure a fresh form for every season and
to force their slaves to purchase new tot
lettes at each turn of the year. The oppo-
sition of artists had hitherto proved futile
because they had brought forward no new
ideal to replace present fashions. The best
endeavors, observed the lecturer would,
however, prove useless If women themselves
could not be aroused to perceive that the
continual change of form in clothing was
nothing but trade maneuver. That dress
reformers were defeated I'm their endeavors
some years ago was owing TO their going
clumsily TO work. The new costumes had
only aimed at health and forgotten beauty.
To obtain success a new mode fulfilling
both conditions must be offered in place of
the present one. Clothing should fulfill the
laws of logic and reason. Free use of the
limbs and muscles is, in the first place.
requisite. Dress should cover, not conceal.
This, remarked M Van de Vede, is quite
forgotten by the tailor of to-day, who
smothers the female figure in a cloud of
puffs, bows. founces and pleats. result
ing in the effect of formleSS mass.
Whence come the floral designs so frequent
in womens clothing? They are the conse-
quences, said the lecturer of trivial senti-
mentality because women had been COM
pared to flowers. But the natural flower
has its own life and decorative laws which
are disturbed by no outsider. Flowers
upon clothing are symbol of the tyranny
in which women are held. In the opinion
Of Nj. Van de Nede at "A dinner or public
festival the appearance of men with their
symmetrical clothing showed more beauty
than that of the>ladies. Qronical smiles
from the female part of the audience.) II
women would accept the idea of a uniform
toilet they would soon accustom them
selves TO 1t. The mixed colors of the pres
ent gowns destroy the rhythmical line of
beauty and create only color dissonance
OF this the artist said he had fully con-
vinced himself during the present court
mourning at Berlin, when he noticed the
wonderful effect of uniform black toilets
The lecture, delivered in French, was re-
ceived with much applause, although no
converts were announced at its conclusion
