orchid. Women of all ages came
for them, and all were delighted.
Many had never worn an orchid
before. “I've been married thirty-
five years,” said one, “and this
is the first orchid I've ever seen.”

them on their coats and frocks
immediately; but some, especially

theirs and tucked them in paper

received orchids.
