Orioin of &ha Dahlia.

By curious irony the dahlia flower,
popular at the flower shows, Is Of very
humble origin. 1t has been developed
from Mexican tuber. Some centu-
ry and half ago this plant was in
troduced into Europe by the Swedish
botanist, Dr. Dahl, for the purely com.
mercial purpose Of supplanting or sup
plementing the potato. But they did
not prove popular, and the dahlia dish
soon disappeared from the dinner ia.
bles Of Europe, but the gardeners saw
the latent possibilities Of the flower
from which they have evolved the dou
BILE dahlia and other popular floral fan.
cies. 1t would thus appear that the
dahlia had reversed the fate of the red
clover, which was originally introduced
as a garden flower. but was found to
be much more desirable as fine for,
age. The tubers Of the dahlia, though
bitter, are still eaten in some parts OF
France.

In the American Magazine Thomas
q. Wilson, the Chicago packer, says:
II often ask man why he Is doing
a thing certain way. If he tells me
that be does it that way because it has
always been done just like that | am
inclined to be somewhat dubious about
his ability. Not infrequently the fact
that custom has been In force for thirty
years is sufficient proof that it is wrong
We should be constantly on the lookout
for better ways of doing things. ANY
business not showing constant advance
ment usually deteriorates. Individual
positions are no exceptions.
"One Of the great foes to a good Or
ganization Is the practice Of promoting
by seniority alone. John Smith is moved
into a vacancy because he has been in
the department longer than some other
fellow. This plan permits an inferior
man to block the way Of a good man.
There should be no rules about promo
ton which can In any way hamper the
selection Of the best man for q place.
In fact, do not like to have too many
rules about anything. Rules tend to
make people follow custom without
knowing why and without using much
initiative"
