Big Price for a Flower.
Ten thousand dollars is un extraor-
dinary price for a single plant; yet
_lt was paid by English horticulturlsts
for an orchid raised in the United
.Stntes. the Cntteleyuglgus alba. This
(Tatfeleya was flowered in 1910, and ex—
'hibited at; an orchid Show in the
.i‘nltod States, where it was awarded
a gold medal. The plant was found
in 1909 in a lot of other specimens of
(‘alteleyu gigas. It was only by chance
that the plant was not sold for 11 doi-
lur or two. The only reason was that
after most of its companions had been
disposed of this one. with some others
that were not in very good condition.
was set aslde. Finally. all the speci-
mens Were potted. To the great sur-
prise of the horticulturists when. next
Spring. the plant came up it was with
pure white flowers. The plant was
sold in London for perhaps the highest
figures that an orchid ever brought.

l Not in the Ritual, but Effective.
, General Pershing tells the story of
1a volunteer battalion of rough back-
woodsmen that once joined General
.tlrnnt. He admired their fine phy-
sique. but distrusted the capacity of
their uncouth commander to handle
troops promptly and efiiclenfity in the
field, so he said:
"Colonel. I want to see your men
at work; call them to attention and
order them to march with shouldered
arms in close column to the left flank."
\'.'lthout a moment‘s hesitation the
colonel filled to his fellow rufl‘ians:
“Boys, look wild thar! Make ready to
thicken and go left epilways. Tote
ycr guns! Git!"
The maneuver proved a brilliant
success and the selfrelected colonel
was forthwith officially commissioned.
—The Boys' an gaper.
Found Big Water.
Silas \Vrlgltt Titus. the "water v.17.»
:trd." is dead. Since boyhood, it is
said. than he never failed to find unr
tierground water when he went after
it. He made water hunting his life
work. One of his big jobs was locat-
ing the underground water that sup-
plies Brooklyn, N. Y.. 10,000,000 gal-
lons a day. ..
No matter how peculiar a demand
rises. up from the people always mines
some man intuitively fitted to handle
zlie job. We may be masters of our
own destinies, but there's a wonderful
system back of it all. distributing hu-
man abilities to meet demands.
Is life staged. in some respects, in
advance?
