There seems to be general miseon-
ception as to just what an orchid Is.
Many call any plant which grows on a
tee or has some peculiar feature an
orchid. This mistake is frequently
made with the pitcher plants and the
''tail flowers" The uniting in one or
gan, called the column, Of the stamens
and pistils serves to distinguish the
orchid family from all related ones.
The orchid family embraces 5000 or
1000 species, Of which comparatively
few are found in the warm temperate
and almost none in the cold temperate
zones. They are mostly distributed in
the tropical regions, in hot, humid
places. Orchids. however, do not inva-
riably prefer humid conditions. Nearly
all tropical orchids grow on trees, but

HIMSELF TO CLOTHES


 Engineer Holman and Fireman, Lar son of engine No. 6. were surprised on sunday afternoon to see a Mexi- can climbing down out of the cab of their engine. just about the time they were returning to it. but did not give the matter much attention until 1t came time for them to eat. At that time Holman reached to the shelf where he usually kept his coat, but found nothing. He searched the cab of the engine. and finally came to the conclusion that the Mex they had seen had helped himself to the coat. which contained two meal tickets. Larson then found that his gloves were gone and the two railroaders swore ven- geance against the Mex. They report ed the matter to the police. and late in the evening Constable White found the Mexican fin one of the saloons. with the engineers coat on, the fire mans gloves in his pocket. and sever al very generous meals punched out of the meal tickets.
