"But I know you," whispered Hans. "And you will know me when I tell you that I am the gardener's boy you ruined some sixteen years ago." CHAPTER XIV. DISCLOSURES.

C1110 CULTURE. it Is Expensive, But the Most Feed. nating Hobby In the World. The anaouncernene that King George is increasing hie collection of orchids at Sandriagliam will, doubt- less, give fillip to this particular branch of horticulture, and increase the popularity which it already en• joys. Ln spite of many new rivals, the orchid in recent years has held its ground. Its position is unique, for no other flower has evoked such a costly expenditure for travelers, who have ransacked out-of-the-way regions Inc new specimens. The prices realiz- ed in the saleroom are often astound- ing to those outside the circle of or- chiclists. One important element in the de- velopment is the fact that the culture of orchids is not now confined to the wealthy enthusiast; their cultivation has been taken un by amateurs. mien are able to devote a small greenhouse to a modest collection at a low cost, At the present time it is possible eo secure plants for a few shillings, which some years ago would have cost as many pounds, It is generally recognized that or- chids can be grown as easily as other Rowers; the difficulties. which were at one time associated with this sec- tion bave been elastically exaggerat- ed. Years ago, owing to the lack of proper knowledge, mistakes were made ill their treatment; but the accumu- lated experience of many of the lead - int; orehidists have placed growers in the possession of simple methods that the merest tyro can soon attain eel- ciency. Orchid-growbeg is always found an indescribably faseinaeing hobby. There is such a wide variation in the forms, and endless possibilities as re- gards color surprises. Moreover, there is the added attractiou that mu) may find amongst his .collection is rare spe- cies worth a big sum, if offered at the auction mart in Cheapside. The fanta.stic shapes afford endless enchantment to the close observer. In the curious forms one sees revealed instauces of mimicry, which are not confined to this section of floral life. Several of the British section resem- ble insects, as the Fly, Bee, and Spi- der orchids; forma of animal life aro delineated in the lexog, the Monkey, She Lizard orchid, end others. In tbe exotic section there are also some re- markable shapes, including Peristeria elate, the flowers of which resemble a dove about to alight, The famous Butterfly 'orchid (On- cidium papilio) is included in many collections, notably in the costly one belonging to the Duke of Devonshire at Chatsworth. The formation of a butterfly is closely followed, the re- semblance being very striking. In Oyenoches ventricosum the delicate and curved column with the winged petals, resemble a swan. Another ex- traordinary species. is the Toad orchid (Megaelinium bufo), which has a weird and "uncanny" appearance. There is a romantic side toorchid eultuse which lends an enhanced in- terest to the hobby. The amateur can attend the sales, which are regularly held in Oheanside, and purchase a plant for a few shillings. This may eventually be found th be a scarce species, bringing the fortunate pos- sessor of several hundred pounds. There are many instances of these auction prizes known to the regular habitues of the saleroom. On one oc- casion a collector in search of new species in their native habitat found a rare specimen, for while a reward of $5,000 had been offered by an Eng- lish firm. The late Duke of Devon- shire once paid $341 for a specimen which was purchased for a dollar in the Island of Luzon. Suffered With Nerve Trouble For Two Years. WAS IMPOSSIBLE FOR HIM TO Mr. Chas. W. Wood, 34 Torrance Street, Montreal, Que., writese--"For two years I suffered with nerve trouble, and it was impossible for me to sleep.

Oil, 17—Commentary Prepared • by ROV. D. M. Staarna. The events of this lesson, thel heal- ing of the fever strieken and all man- ner of diseased people aad Spirit pos- sessed people and the healing of a leper, are au samples of the eing- done which was at hand, but which did not come because they 'would not have Him. Verse 39 of 01.1r Leeson, summa- rizes it briefly, "He preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee and cast out demons." It is more fully stated in Matt, iv, 23, "And Jesus Went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogees and preaching the gesPel of the kingdom and healing all manner of sickness aud all manner of disease among the people." it was predicted by the prophets that in the kingdom tbe blind would eee, the deaf hear, the dumb sing, the lame leap as a hart, and no one complain because of sick- ness, for Iniquity would be forgiven (Isa. xxxlli, 24; xxxv, 5, 6). It was also predicted that in the kingdom wolves and lambs, leopards and kids, calves and lions. cows and bears anti little children would all live in peace together (Isa. xi, 6-0; law, 25). No one seeras to expect these last mentioned things 'until Jesus shall come agaill, but many are wondering why they can- not be bealed of all diseases even though the kingdom has not come. They ask often complainingly, "Is not the body as well as the soul included in the atonement?" yes; the great atonement will reach the body, too, and itt the resurrection these bodiee of our humiliation will be fashioned like His glorious body, but till then we must wait patiently in strength or weakness, as He may in Elis infinite love and wisdom decide. Some are healed by His hand without a physe cian and some by His blessing upon the physician's skill and medicine, while some continue in weakness, and many are passing out from the mortal body. The truly devout soul says un- der all circumstances, "Even so, Pa - there' and rejoices in the perfect will of God. Our lesson verses 20 to 31 tell of His going from the synagogue to the borne of Simon and Andrew, where Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever. He took her by the hence, rebuked the fe- ver, and immealately she was well and ministered to them. Compare the ministry of angels in verse 13. Think of Samuel as a little boy ministering to the Lord (I Sam. 111, 1) and let all our service be "unto the Lord" and "Udine the Lora." Possibly more might be healed if He saw that they would minister unto Him, for Fle is seeking iu every way to bring people unto 111insele that He may fill them with His fullness (Ex. xis, 4; I Pet. Verses 82 to 34 tell of all Manner of diseased and demon possessed people being brought to Him to be healed, and it is written here and in the paral- lel accounts in Matthew and Luke that Efe bit His hands on every one of them alma healed them (Luke iv, 40); that He cast out the spirits with His word and healed all that were sick, that It might be fulfilled which was spoke by Isaiah the prophet, saying, "Himself took our infirmities and bare our sicknesses" (Matt, viii, 16, 17; Isa. 1111, 4). If they bad only received Him as their Messiah the Lord would have made bare His holy arm in the eyes of all the nations, and all the ends of the earth should have seen tbe salva- tion of our God (Isa. 111, 10), but be- cause He is still the despised and re- jected one of Israel we continue in faith and patience to wait for His re- turn. He needs no testimony from His adversaries, se He suffered not the de- mons to speak even though they said, "Thou art Cbrist, the Son of God." Lesson verses 35 to 30 tell of His ear- ly morning praying a great vvbile be- fore day, having gone off to a soli- tary place. Since He felt the need of being away from even these few dis- ciples that He might the better com- mune with His Father, how min we know much of real communion with God in the constantly busy life that go many lead?, It is true that We can pray to God anywhere and at any time, but see how He went away alone. Si- mon and the others found Rini and told Hint that people were looking for Him; then He said: "Let us go into the next towns." "I must preach the king- dom of G•od to other cities also." We must not forget that "the field is the world" and our orders are, "Go ye into alt She 'world." The four lepers of Samaria should put us to shame with their words: "We do not web.
