The "' Shut Si F r," or Water Fairy Flower. Joss Flower, or Flower cf the Gods, etc., as it is called by the 

 Ce'estiah, is a variety of Narcissus, bearing in lavish profusion chaste flowers of silvery white with go den yellow 

 cups They are of xquisite beauty and entrancing perfume. It is gro vn by the Chinese, according to their ancient 

 customs, to he. aid the advent of their new year and as a symbol of good 'uck. 



The bulbs a~e grown by a method known only to themselves, whereby they attain great size and vitality, en- 

 suring luxuriant growth end immense spikes of flowers ; in tact, the incredibly short time required to bring bulbs 

 into bl om (four to six wcks alter p'anting) is one of the wonders of nature. "You can almost see them grow," 

 succ edinz a most everywhere and with everybody. They do well in pots of earth, tut are more novel and neauti- 

 fu grown in shallow bowls of water, with enough of f ncy pebbli-s to prevent them from toppling over when in 

 bloom. A dozen bulbs staited at intervals will give a succession of flowers throughout the winter. (St e cut.)
