THE ODORIFEROUS CAPE. 



In speaking of the wonderful things 

 he saw in the establishment of a florist 

 who gave him a bunch of flowers, an 

 Illinois editor said: "Fifteen hundred 

 cafe .jessamine bloom were received from 

 the South Texas coast for Decoration 

 day. When, all unpacked these filled 

 thirty large vessels and the odor per- 

 meated the entire house. These flowers 

 are grown in shallow water on the sea 

 coast and are becoming more and more 

 popular each year for Decoration day 

 flowers. The petals are waxy, white and 

 the foliage a very dark, brilliant green. ' '
