It then engaged in the attack on the

nurtured and cultivated in the civilized en-
vronment Of the temperate zone, 1t goes with
out saying that it is easy task to duplicate
the conditions which produced the species.
To do so at all necessitates the construction
of the special greenhouses above mentioned,
with varied equipment including steam heat
ing plant big enough to heat buildings many
times the size of these greenhouses.
The lure Of rich reward attracts many dar-
ing and resourceful men to the orchid bust
ness, although as may be surmsed, the rich
prizes of gold come to the men who discover,
or at least the men who bring back to civiliza-
ton heretofore unknown varieties Of this nu-
merous family. The leading firms engaged in
the orchid trade retain at large salaries men
of wide experience whose sole occupation Is
to trail the orchid in the almost inaccessible
haunts where there is ever the magnet Of
possible unheard Of varieties to beckon one
forward
Sometimes an orchid hunter will search for
a year or more, facing the almost intolerable
conditions Of an UNEMPLOYED land in order to
capture in the end some heretofore unknown
variety. During his quest, be it long or short
he must brave foul disease at almost every
step; must be ever alert against the hostility

+nro ond moisture although such are the peculiar
itias of these erratic flowers that every now and
then an experienced grower will lose number
of plants for no apparent reason.
These flowers some of which said to have
the ability to kill with their fragrance, are in
reality distant cousins of familiar blooms,
the snow drop and the ladys slipper. There are,
all told more than 5000 varieties OF orchids but
the ones which have been most priced are the
strangely beautiful forms which have come from
blistering deserts. fever swamps, the tops Of
mountains or other localities where 1t seems as
though Dame Nature had done her best to hide
them away from prying human eyes. To per-
sons who have not learned to love them there
is often suggestion almost OF the uncanny
about fanciful orchid and such persons will
not be surprised to hear that one of the choicest
of orchids was first found clingng to tomb
stone in New Guinea.
Orchid growers would, most of them, be in
no end of difficulty in classifying and identifying
their specimens, were it not for the Orchid
Studbook which is issued every years just as is
the studbook of horses which lists all Of the
domestic varieties of orchids with information
as to their respective lines of descent from the
original wild kinds. There have been many IA
mons orchid collectors. Mrs. Roosevelt was
very fond of the flower and it was due to her eff
forts that a respectable-sized collection OF or
chds has been formed at the White House con-
servatories Perhaps the most enthusiastic or
all orchid collectors, however has been Joseph
Chamberlain and the name of the English states

thousands of dollars of his wealth to the indul-
gence of his hobby for the gentlest and fraiest

vades and must risk all sorts of personal mis-
haps in grasping his prize, even after the quest
has been successful, since most OF the rare
orchids of the tropics flourish only at the
tops of the talest trees. The hunter must
ether climb the trees, or more likely he Will
cut them down, but he dare not trust any
hands save his own to undertake the task OF
gathering these fragile flowers.
An energetic orchid hunter will forward
great numbers of plants, some rare and others
not so rare to the orchid consuming centers
Of Europe and America every year, but 1t is

breaker for a rare orchid, as notable specl-
mems have been sold for sums as high as

shall be what the layman would regard as dis
tinctly different from all others in order to
command a fancy price. If it merely has
markings distinct from those on the orchids OF

viously. it will be eagerly sought by collectors

she looks younger than she has for
years, and that she never was as
dear to you, and that you are hardly
able to pull through your daily tasks
because you are so distracted by
thoughts of her.
The remedy at least is cheap. 1t
costs nothing but effort, but, alas!
more effort than some men are will
ing to put forth. 1t is not because a
man is too truthful to tell lies to his
wife about her appearance, but be-
cause he hasn't the willing mind. 1t
is too common for men to presume
that simply because they are married
they need not bestow courtesy or SEN
timent upon their wives. Some men
reserve their stories Of fattery for
other mems wives, which makes par
tcularly interesting reading In the

The pianoforte was directly evolved
from the clavichord and the harpsi-
chord. In I'LL Scipione Mattel gave
detailed account of the first four
instruments, which were constructed
by Bartholomew Chrustofori. 1t was
named by him the pianOforte and was
first exhibited in 1909. Marius, in
France, exhibited harpsichords, with
hammer action, in 1716, and Schroter,
in Germany, claimed to have invent
ed the pianoforte between 1717 and
1920.
MarIus was at first generally cred
tied with the invention. Pianos of that
period were shaped much like the
modern grand variety. The first square
piano was constructed by Frederick,
in organ manufacturer of S2xony, in
175S The first genuine upright pi-
ano was invented in England and the
United States by John Isaac Hawkins,
an Englishman, in 1880.

secret of the fascination of these wonderful
flowers is not by any means explained by the
mere fact that they expensive, which
has so often been advanced in explanation of
why so many people are eager for these
flowers
No more than half a century ago the whole
orchid family virtually undiscovered.
Only a few varieties were known and they
were by no means in general cultivation. Now
there is a mad quest in all quarters Of the
globe for these fashionable flowers The ut
termOst parts of the earth are being ransack-
ed for new varieties, under the spur Of the
enormous prices which collectors will pay for
rare finds" and expensive greenhouses have
been installed to permit the cultivation of the
more delicate members of the orchid family
under the same conditions as to light and tenn
perature which obtain in its ancestral home
in the tropics
The orchids in their native haunts are
found growing in all sorts of strange ways,
and naturally when they transplanted they
are hard plants to grow. Moreover there
no rules for the cultivation of orchids. In 9TH
er branches of the floral kingdom all the men,
bers of given floral family may be expected
to yield to the same general method of cul-
tivaton, varied only in minor detail to permit
adaptation to the needs of each member of
the family. Not with the eccentric orchids
however. Every plant is seemingly law unto
itself, and likely to require methods of cult
walton distinct in themselves and perhaps the
exact opposite of those which obtain in the
case of other members of this fascinating fam
lily.
The rarest of the Orchids and of course
the ones most sought and the ones which
command the highest prices, do not grow
after the fashion Of the general community
of selfrespecting plants which bury their roots

trunks or tree limbs 1t is these species which
have their native home deep in the jungles of
the tropics and the hotter and damper the at

at Nine. Hatch's and get some saddle
horses. She loaned us the horses, and
when we returned them she would
accept no pay. She spread the table
and got us something to eat She did
such kindness to many Union sol
diers, and nursed some who were sick
in her own home.
General Butler passed decree that
all persons of eighteen years OF age
should come to his headquarters and
take the oath of allegiance to the
United States. When it came the turn
Of Nine. Hatch, she told him she was
Nine. Hatch, and absolutely refused
to take the oath, declaring she would
die first. General Butler then de-
clared that her silverware should be
confiscated. He ordered Major Strong,
his chief Of staff, to see that the order
was carried out. The major went to
the mansion of Nine. Hatch and, in
response to his command, she brought
out her silver plate and a large guam
tity Of silver spoons. He left the rest
and took the spoons.
For her kindness to Union soldiers,
Nine. Hatch had become very popular
among our boys, and when the spoon
affair and the story of Nine Hatch's
experience with General Butler be-
came known, he was called Silver

thereafter.

What Women Need 10 Not so Much
Medicine But a Lot Of White
Lies.

And now comes a very learned man,
a psychologist, a physicist and a phil
osopher, who seems to have invesu-
gated the whole subject to his own
satisfaction, and firds that the world
is cursed with truth, or, rather, with
a lack of lies. Human beings, par
ticularly those of the feminine gender,
suffer physical torments, 1t appears,
because they are not buoyed up by
sufficient flattery. What women need
IS not so much quinine and ipecac as
n lot OF white lies. When you go
home to the wife of your bosom you
are not to tell her that she looks bad
and ought to have doctor at once.

can come to a woman Is the feeling
that she awakens no romantic inspl-
ration in her husband. If every nus

Now, this learned man is right IN

q very slow operation, and one re-
Quiring an infinite amount Of patience.
Orchid growers who are in the bush
ness either for profit or pleasure, pre-
fer, as rule, to simply buy the bulbs
brown and withered and unpromising
and by watchful care nurture the
latent spark of life until in time the
plant blooms. One ticklish task in
connection with the raising of orchids
is the keeping up of the successive pc
RODS of rest and activity natural to
each species of this floral family. AS
an orchid plant is passing into what Is
known as the dormant state 1t re-
quires a gradually slackening supply
of water, whereas when 1t is revived
from this and returned to active
growth there must be continual in
crease in the amount Of moisture sup
piled to the plant arOusing from its
drowsiness
Orchids newly arrived from foreign
parts must have an exceptional
amount of attention after their long
sea voyage. First, all the old leaves
are removed and then the plants are
allowed to repose for time in cool
building wher they have shade. After
two or three days of pre- paration the
new arrivals are put in pots and
"nursed" until they give evidence or
