Forcing Bulbs for Windows.

In ancient days the Greeks crowned their
bscchanalian cups and vases with flowers aud
garlands, and the Egyptians affected tho
ghastly custom of setting up a skeleton for q
m,mento mori at the festive board. Let us
emulate the example of the former, bearing in
mind that
KEEPING HOUSE PLANTS
Is the skeleton-in-the closet of many families,
which, as breeder of family jars" is even
moro prolific than the blue fly. But
then the household must have its little diver
tisemcnts, and u few domestic "spats" only
add zest to connubial felicity. even as lovers
quarrels bring about the blissful making
up" Perhaps you have an old fashioned
China punch-bowl; just the very thing!
impress it into the service and fill it up al
once with he fragrant hyacinth, the richly
colored p, the rarely -veined crocus. aud
place it he table as trophy of the triumph
gained b. dnement over the sensual self
indulgence '!e past. Use the cOcuanut pre-
pared fibre, which can be obtained of any tlor-
ist, to fill the bowl; Or il this be not come-at-
able, silvcr-scouring sand may be substituted,
or the moss and litchcns of the wood The
bulbs must be firmly inserted in the moss, or
whatever answers for soil, well dampencd, and
so disposed that those of the tallcst growth
shall occupy the center Of the bowl, which
should be arranged rather higher than at the
margin. The hyacinths must be covered ono
inch in depth, the crOcuses but slightly. IL
they are planted in eccentric circles, each COM
posed of one color around the dish they will
present charming effect when in bloom. Tho
double Roman narcssus grows well in moss,
and forms fine center for the floral arrange
ment.
IN SELECTING BULBS
for a punch.bowl or glass dish due regard musa
be paid to their season of Towering, SO that Al
the plan is may be in bloom at once.
The bowl must be kept in dark place for
at least four weeks and the moss not allowed
TO become dry; when brought out to the sun
light the room should not be too warm at first;
u heated dry atmosphere will rctard the do
velopment of the leaves and fower-buds but
soon, however they will become acclimated,
as 1t were, and endure all the sunlight attain
able.
Such an arrangement in handsome china
or glass bowl is an elegant ornament for any
apartment, and when in full bloom no hand
somer decoration can DO imagined for the sup
per table.
may be planted about Christmas but If Sos
Christmas, they must be planted quite early.
Lily of the valley can easily bo forced In this
manner, taking care To bring into the houss
largo-szed roots, which will surely bloom, and
keeping them in cool, dark place, free from
frost, for five weeks, then giving them air and
sunlight. Cyclamens also are among the love-
liest of bulbous rooted flowers, with blossoms
lowering like bright-winged birds over the
dark green leaves.
Don't sprinkle your plants when they are h
position to catch strong light, either from
sun or gas. Drops Of water form lenses and
light concentrated in them will burn q spot On
the foliage or flower leaf.
