Copyright. 10 13. by The Asso THE ORCHID has rightly boon called the elite of the flower kingdom. Every curve and outline of Its delicate makeup sug gests tho enchanting grace of a pampered beauty of the aristocracy. And Indeed If It wero not for tho aristocracy there would be little known of these rarest and so-cnlled last efforts of tho Creator. For Its native habitation Is among tho Im penetrable recesses of the Jungle and it Is only at tho Instigation of tile wealthy that florists have slak ed their fortunes on orchid hunt- lug expeditions. Much Is told of the perilous Journeys of arctic ex plorers heroes who risk their lives for the fame and glory of being tho llrst to discover hut little Is handed down In history of the lives of these seekers for beauty whoso stirring adventures would neverthe less fill books. Yet It can bo said without exaggeration that Innum erable men have passed through the most dlro privations tiud tragic deaths when In search of thesu slender flowers. Some ten or twolvo yearn ago Hugonu Andre of Trinidad, with a party of thirteen, started up tho un explored Can in River In search of tho beautiful Cattleya which was then so much In demand, lie re turned n year later hopolesslv liro SIOl'X CITY, la., Juno 27. Sioux City's hoard of education It making a campaign to increase at tendance nt the high school, and In this movement has Issued through the superintendent a booklet explain' lug the advantages of such ciliicn tlon. Argument In favor of u high jchool education Is placed on a money basis In one section or the booklet, ami tho conclusion is reach ed thai education Is worth $10 u day to any man. Tho figures aro thus stated: "The nverago educated man get $1000 a year. Working forty yeais, ho mnkes $10,000 for a liretlmo. I'ho nverago day laborer gotB $l.."ti a dny for UOO days in tho year, II ho Is lucky. In forty years he earns $18,000. Tho difference ol (22,000 equals tho value of nil edu cation. "To acquire this earning capnclt requires twelve years at school ol 180 days ouch, or 2180 days. Divide $22,000, tho value of an education, by 2 too, tho number or dnys re quired to get it, and It Is found that scnoollng Is worth a Ilttlo more than $10 dally to tho pupil. Ciin $10 bo earned any easier?" Tho booklet further nrgues that a man to bo noted must bo educated.

And In addition to this peril the linrdslilps thnt the orchid hunt ers have to endure are terrible; forest and Jungle. Impassable rlv. ers and poisonous snakes, wild beasts and cannibals, fever and star vation. South American orchids wero at one time carried for .six weeks on the backs of the hunters until the Kssoqulbo Klver was reached, then six weeks In canoes with twenty portages to (leorgetown. and thence across the ocean. Out of 27.000 plants sent from Colon only 10 reached England. An English firm once scut to Vow Cliilneii for a cortnln Dendro blum. The collector lived uniting the untlveii for six months, and fi nally succeeded In gathering 100 plants. On tho way home the schooner wns burned ami tho plants lost, but the collector wsb ordered to return, lie wns at last success ful In bringing homo some wonder ful specimens, which ho found crow ing In the skulls at- a native burial place. Tho orchid Is essentially n mod ern flower, so there Is Ilttlo myth or legend connected with It. The earliest record of orchid cultivation is 17111, when somo terrostlnl or chids wero Introduced Into England from tho West Indies. Now If Is said thnt some 10,000 species exist.

Hy Dr. Frank Crane.' 1WISH l had a million dollars, you say. I could do so much good with It. There are so many I would like to help. It would bo such n pleasure to relievo tho sufferings of this poor family, to nsslst thnt strug gling young man. and to coutrlbuto generously to the church nnd tho hospital. I know I would not bo ns selfish us many rich people nre. If l had a million 1 would gratify my guuerotis Impulses. Stop right there! Your Imagina tion Is misleading you. If you hnil n million dollars, you would bo :.o more liberal than you nro now. Helpfulness does not depend on tho size of your Income. If you nro doing nothing for others on your present Income of fifty dollars a month you would do tho santo It you hud fifty thousand a month. You would be Just ns wrnnned mi In vmir own sweet Bclf nH you nre now nnd wrappoder. For It Is a well established fact one's altruistic impulses tlecreaso In force- as olio's wealth grows. The kindest, most generous, nnd charltnblo peoplo In the world nro those who have Ilttlo or nothing. Tho best frleudB to the poor nro tho other poor. 1 have in mind now ono of tho most benevolent women I over know. Shu Is always thinking of others. She sends flowers to her friends upon Just tho right occasions, she hns de licious soup sent to certain peoplo In whom she Is Interested In the hos pituls, sbu plans In various societies to help tho needy children, sho Is n real "trouble woman," for wherever there is trouble there is sho, to hold the nervous hand, to smooth the hot brow, unit to glvo of her full cheer nml hopo to them that need. She Is not rich In pocket; she linn the truu riches, of tho heart, riches that moth nnd dust do not corrupt nor thluves break through nnd steal. And you, If you have the root of tho matter In you, can bo us benevo lent as tho most lavish millionaire. What you need Is not money, It Ih disposition. Fur tliu ono thing to glvo In this world, tho ono thing that Is worth while, tho one thing thnt cheers uk nil up nml ndds oznuu to tho soul, Is yourself. Tho great gifts of tho rich It In. doubtful ir they do any good after all. I have my suspicions or thum. Hut whoso gives himself, his time his thought, his attention, his care, he Is tho world's real benefactor. "This world Is so waste nnd emp ty," says (loethe. In his "Wllhelm Melster," "when wo figure but towns mid hills nnd rivers In It, hut to know that somo one Is living on with us, oven In silence, this mnkes our earthly ball a peopled garden." PTOMAINE POISONING. "What Is ptomaine poison? How can It bo detected In eatables? What causes it? Is It found only In fruits, meals and vegetables, put up In tin cans7" Tho nhtivu Inquiries wero received hy tho chemistry department of tho Stntu College not long ago, and wuro answered by Demi Elton I'll liner ns follows: "Ptomaine Is a peculiar class of poisons which develop from organic matter. Tlielr chemistry Is not very clearly defined. Development takes place by 'micro-organisms' In decay lug organic matter particularly that containing protein. It would be Im possible for tho layman to detect It. The thing which Is particularly fav orable to It Is the presence of tho proper micro-organisms, nnd It Is pretty hard to tell what governs thnt. "Quoting from Hollnnd'H Medlra Chemistry: " 'To produce them Is required n curtain favorable combination of special micro-organisms, protein, air nnd temperature. They nro uustnblo, changing In a short time through many stages. In most cases, decom position has not gone fur enough to make the food offensive Tho tox icity may ho great when there Is no talut perceptible to smell or taste.' "Any form of decaying organic mutter, whether canned or not, may develop It. I lmvu known cases from cold storago fish. "Quoting further from tho snmo author: " 'These mnko their onset soon after eating tho pnlsonod food. Thero nro In most cases marked thirst, sal ivation, nnusonu, vomiting, abdom inal pain, diarrhoea, crumps In tho legs; chills, feeble pulse, dilated pu pils, drowsiness or delirium, numb uoss, paralysis, and collapse.' "Ptomnlno Is more npt to develop In products whore thero Is consid erable protein. Ice cream somotlmoH gives It, Fruits seldom do. Meats develop It sometimes Tlhe Spirit of Lateir-Day Adveirttusnirng As we have said bolero, tho pur pose of Tho Times 1b first of all to servo Its readers. To do this Is not only the right moral attitude toward our constituency, but It 1b good business, speaking from a purely busluuss standpoint. And so It Is that wo point out from day to dny tho advertising features of this papor nnd tho ad vantngeB to bo gained from keep ing posted In ull of the news thus presented. The spirit or advertising Is dif ferent today from that of n few years ago. Tho Idon no longer Is to fool nnd to misrepresent, but to Inform and to Invito.
