The Chinese Sacred or Oriental Narcissus. 
The ‘‘Shui Sin Far,’”’ or Water Fairy Flower, Joss Flower,or Flower of the Gods, 
etc., as it is called by the Celestials, is a variety of Narcissus, bearing in lavish pro- 
fusion chaste flowers of silvery white, with golden-yellow cups. They are of exquisite 
beauty and entrancing perfume. It is grown by the Chinese, according to their 
ancientcustoms, to herald theadvent of their new year and as asymbol of good luck. 
The bulbs are grown by a method known only to themselves, whereby they attain 
great size and vitality, ensuring luxuriant growth and immense spikes of flowers; in 
fact, the incredibly short time required to bring bulbsinto bloom (four to six weeks 
after planting) is one of the wonders of nature. ‘‘Youcan almost see them grow,’’ 
succeeding almost everywhere and with everybody. They do wellin pots of earth, but 
are more novel and beautiful grown in shallow bowls of water, with enough of fancy 
pebbles to prevent them from toppling over whenin bloom. A dozen bulbs started 
at intervals will give a succession of flowers throughout the winter. (See cut.) Price,
