Orchid Sold for $10,500.
If you had quite nn ordinary orchid
collection you could take up one of
the better bulbs that had flowered
prettily and go out and buy, with the
proceeds of lis sale, a peachblow vase,
a high-powered touting car, or a rea
sonably safe and sane balloon. Count
Apponyi of Budapest paid $5,000 to a
Venezuelan for an orchid of a species
bo gigantic that oxen were required to
convey it and the section of tree to
which it was attached. Because a
Cattelya had a violet blue corolla In
stead of the violet rose corolla of (its
species, its price leaped $250. For
the FIttlanum of the H. T. Pitt collec
tion, a small plant, the high bid was
$6,000. Mr. Pitt himself paid $C,500
for the celebrated imported Persim
mon Crlspum. This had been bought
In open market, before flowering, for
86 cents. It is the plant that has
demonstrated how it can bloom that
costs dear. For the spotted Crlspum
"Frederic Sander," Mr. Pitt, after see
ing the bloom, paid 2,000 guineas
nearly $10,500.

Heavy loads of farm produce are
held up by bad roads, and the better
route Is chosen for them, sometimes,
even when the market is not as much
to the likilng of the farmer as the one
, offered by a city or town situated on
poorer highways. The important fact
bout this Is that the farmers usually
do their trading in the same place
where they market their crops, and
their trade is valuable to the mer

ORIGIX
Of a Famous Human Food.
The story of great discoveries or
Inventions is always of Interest.
An active brain worker who found
himself hampered by lack of bodily
trength and vigor and could not
carry out the plans and enterprises
he knew how to conduct, was led to
tudy various foods and their effects
upon the human system. In other
Words, before he could carry out his
plans he had to find a food that would
earry him along and renew his physi
cal and mental strength.
He knew that a food which was a
brain and nerve builder (rather than
a mere fat maker) was universally
needed. He knew that meat with
the average man does not accomplish
the desired results. He knew that
the soft gray substance In brain and
nerve centres Is made from Albumen
and Phosphate of Potash obtained
from food. The he Btarted to solve
the problem,
Careful and extensive experiments
evolved Grape-Nuts, the now famous
food. It contains the brain and nerve
building food elements In condition
tor easy digestion.
The result of eating Grape-Nuts
dally is easily seen in a marked stur
dlness and activity of the brain and
nervous system, making It a pleasure
for. one to carry on the dally duties
without fatigue or exhaustion.
Grape-Nuts food 1b in do sense a
tlmulant, but Is simply food which
renews and replaces the daily waste
of brain and nerves.
Its flavour is charming, and being
fully and thoroughly cooked at the
factory It Is served Instantly with
cream. -
The signature of the brain worker
apoken of, C. W. PoBt, is to be seen
on each genuine package of Grape
Nuts. Look In pkgs. for the famous lit
tle book. "The Road to Wellvllle."

TO DISTINGUISH THE
VARIOUS CUTS OF BEEF
It Is as essential that house
keeper be instructed in everything
pertaining to the various branches of
her housework as it Is Indispensable
for a man to be efficiently equipped
for the particular business which he
follows every day of his life. To her
Is given the care of the home, and
not the least Important part of this
Is Its finances. One of the most im
portant points In this regard is that
the housewife should market econom
ically. This doeb not mean, buying
on a cheap scale anyone can do that
but a Judicious purchasing cf all
requisite a.tkles. The mo6t econom
ical buyer Is the one who gets the
greatest returns for the least ex
penditure, and these returns shon'd
be In quality even more than In
quantity.
Ab meat forms the greater share of
any one food, and as Its cost generally
averages the highest, It behooves the
housekeeper to look well to her meat
bills. It these are larger than sh
would wish to have them, nothing but
sagacious buying will reduce them.
WHERE THE VARIOUS CUTS
and this can only be accomplished by i
a more or less thorough knowledge
of the various cuts of meat, the loca
tion, and their values as blood and
tissue builders for the human system.
Beef, lamb and mutton .form the
staples of meet diet, and as beef is
consumed In the greatest quantity,
It has been thought advisable to pre
pare the Illustration on this page,
marking it oft as a chart. So much
attention Is paid to-day to scientific
cooking, and there are so many ways,
through the magazines and papers,
for the average woman to keep her
self informed, that It is inexcusable
for any except the most inexperienced
housekeeper not to have an Intelli
gent knowledge of the choice and In
ferior cuts of meat. Few housekeep
ing articles, however, touch on the
very important subject of meat, that
Is, in Its Initial stage, or from a point
where the butcher cuts It Into large
sections to be set aside until special
cuts are taken from each. The ac
companying illustration, therefore,
will prove most interesting to the
woman who wishes to add to her
store of knowledge on this subject

Cingalese Superstition.
An old Cingalese woman, who lived
In an ordinary native hut by herself,
died and was buried. On the follow
ing day a large Iguana (a species of
lizard which attains great size) en
tered the compound of a gentleman
living close by and attacked his poul
try. Hearing the noise and commo
tion he came out, and on ascertaining
the cause got his gun and shot the
iguana. No sooner had he done this
than there arose a great uproar from
the relatives of the old woman, who
declared that he had killed her, be
cause her spirit had passed into the
lizard, In proof of which they pointed
triumphantly to the fact that it had
never before been seen In the vicinity
and only appeared after her death.

Woman, the Eternal Savage.
According to Professor Starr of the
University of Chicago woman remains
"the eternal savage." It is Impossible
to civilize her becuuse "the fundamen
tal nature of woman is barbaric."
Her fondness for deception, her love
of finery, her very superstitions mark
her as a "pnlmitive," a being no furth
er advanced than her sister of the
Jungle. She thinks the old thoughts,
feels the old emotions, Is moved by the
old Impulses; she dresses In the old
gew-gaws; she is thnllled by the world
old hopes and fears." And It Is on her
possession of these characteristics,
says Dr. Starr, that the continuance
of the race depends.
This is, perhaps, the greatest tri
bute ever paild to women. They are
shown to be nature's sole product that
has resisted the processes of evolu
tion. However they came Into the
world, whether fashioned from a rib
or not, they came perfect and com
plete like Athena from the brow of
Zeus. They achieved the sumnium
bonum of existence at a bound.
Profesor Starr will no doubt admit
that woman, while retaining her orig
inal savagery, has improved on her
Bister of the Jungle. The latter does
not chnnge her costumes four times a
day; her palm tree trousseu serves
for all occasions. Nor is she a con
noisseur of cocktails. But if we fol
low the Chicago anthropollglst, It is
in the essential nature" of her "influ
ence by means of personal charm that
woman remains unchanged. New

"MEMOIRS OF DAH RICE," TEtJO
CLOWN OF OVB DADDIES.
At Last, There lj on Bale Book
Brimful of American Humor.
Any bookseller will tell you that
the constant quest of his customers
is for "a book which will make me
laugh." The bookman Is compelled
to reply that the race of American
humorists has run out and eomlc lit
erature Is scarcer than funny plays.
A wide sale Is therefore predicted for
tHe "Memoirs of Dan Rice," the
Clown of Our Daddies, written by
Maria Ward Brown, a book guar
anteed to make you roar with laugh
ter. The author presents to the pub
lic a volume of the great Jester's
most pungent Jokes, comic harangues,
caustic hits upon men and manners,
lectures, anecdotes, ' sketches of ad
venture, original songs and poetical
effusions; wlso and witty, serious,
satirical, and sentimental sayings of
the sawdust arena of other days.
These "Memoirs" also contain a series
ot adventures and Incidents alternat
ing from grave to gay; descriptive
scenes and thrilling events; tho rec
ord of half a century of a remarkable
life, In the course of which the sub
ject was brought Into contact with
most of the national celebrities of the
day. The book abounds In anecdotes,
humorous and otherwise; and It af
fords a clearer view of the Inside
mysteries of bIiow life than any ac
count' heretofore published. Old Dan
Rice, as the proprietor of the famous
"One Horse Show," was more of a
national character than Artemus
Ward, and this volume (contnlns the
humor which made the nation laugh
even while the great Civil War raged.
This fascinating book of 600 pages,
beautifully illustrated, will be sent
postpaid to you for $1.50. Address

The Eye a Perfect Camera.
The eye is the most perfect camera
In existence. It is not so quick a9 the
best that man makes, some of which
can fix the image of the lightning
flash In a way the eye has never be
held It, yet for adaptability and for
taking an endless array of pictures on
the same plate it stands unapproached
by anything man has ever devised. It
Is a camera no larger than a marble.
Its photographic plate 6s no larger
than a quarter. Yet on its surface It
has 137,0(10.000 nerves or "wires'' and
i;)7,000,000 little rods and cones which
serve as stations on telegraphic lines
lo the brain. The moment a ray of
light strikes one of these little sta
tions a speaking account Is telegraph
ed to the braiin over a private wire.
Each station makes Its own report,
all of the 137,000,000 wires passing
to the brain through a cable no larger
than a slate pencil. There the entire
137,000,000 reports are woven Into a
single story and that story Is what we
think when we see.
Sour Milk to Prolong Life.
Don't throw away sour milk. Drink

called "120 Years of Life and How to
Attain Them." He telU of investiga
tions among the Bulgarians. He was
attracted to Bulgaria by a government
table showing that there were many
persons In the country who had reach
ed the age of 120 years and were
nllve and hearty. He went to Bul
garia a skeptic; he came away con
vinced that the Bulgarians are the
longest lived of all nations. He de
cided that the secret of extreme and
active old age was sour milk. The
Bulgarians take a special form of sour
milk dally. It Is prepared with a fer
ment known as "mays." Relnhardt
says that this sour, millk used over the
world will lengthen the average life
by at least 20 years. New York
