A Curious Flower.

\ curio- dealer in San Diego, Cali
fornia, has for sale the Strangest and
rareSt flower known to scientists.
it is called The Rose of He'll" This
so-called flower is gigantic blossom
of solid wood, which grows only on
the edges of a South American volca-
no, and gets its name from the Indi-
ans, who believe the crater is the en-
trance of hell and the blossom native
of the regions inside.
At first appearance, the blossom
seems to be tough, gnarled knot of
Il tree, which has been splintered,
but closer examination discloSeS the
fact that it has petals of wood and
bark and the rough outlines of a
flower. The petals, concave in form,
are arranged much like the petals of
Il full-blown rose Their inside sur
faces are covered with fine lines,
which have the delicacy of fine hand
carving. The stem, which is about a
foot long. is OF some unusual wood,
which is light and strong 1t is COW
cred with heavy bark, which seems TO
have been cracked by heat. Both
flower and stem are dark brown -
the color of Heather-beaten boughs-
and dry as tinder. The flower grows
on tree of great size and strength.
The flowers measure about twelve
inches across. The trees grow in the
cravesses on the sides of Mount Agna
a high peak among the rugged noun
tains of Central America, and near
the volcano of Fuego. The Guatc-
malan Indians have known of it for 4
long time, and associate it with the
fiery vengeance OF the subterranean
regions.
