FLOWERS FROM FISHES.

FLOW Eho Il Rum tlOh EO'
A large bouquet of artificial flowers
made by Mrs. Rosa Harden, formerly of
New Jersey, but now of Baltimers, was
Yesterday sent to the Smithsonian Insti-
tuition, Washington. Mrs Harden has
for several years experimental with
various materials to make an artificial
flower which would possess the qualities
of ordinary artificial flowers besides
other desirable qualities. fter many
trials she succeeded In making flower
which cannot be so,led by any liquid,
and which when dusty can be cleaned
in water without injury. Mrs. Harden
discovered process of taking the skius
of salmon and the Goldfish, dissolvinR
clarifying and aerating them by eheml-
Gals, forming jelly which can be given
any desired color. The teols are bread
dough fabricated with lard for moulds.-
VarieRAted flowers are made by vapor
formed by the jelly and chemicals. Sta
mems and pistols are formed by ordinary
cotton dipped In gum arabic, dried and
dipped in the jelly. A natural Fl .grlnce
Ia given to the flowers by sprinklinR
them with cologne. Prof. q. Brown
Goode, of the Smithsonian Institution,
In a letter to Mr.. II, Ii. Edmonds, of the
Merchants Exchange here, says the
discovery 10 en- irely new, and he regard
ed 10 OF so much value that he ordered
the finest specimen to be had for exhib i.
ton at the Smithsonian. Mr. Edmonds
sent the bouquet by special messenger
yesterday.
