riOWKKS FOU A OIIAVE,
The question is sometimes asked us,
■ ■ What flowers are suitable to plan taround
a grave ?” The feeling which leads to
the decoration of the last resting place of
tiro loved dead is a natural one, and one
which is in accordance not only with good
caste, but with the teachings of religion.
It has found its public expression in ma
ny beautiful cemeteries all over the land,
where the art of the sculptor has combin
ed with that of the landscape gardener
to beautify the city of the dead, and make
its walks attractive to the living. While
(he general arrangement of rural ceme
teries is usually marked by skill and taste,
their effect is frequently marred by In
congruities in the individual lots, the
owners of which often show more zeal
than discretion in their embellishment.
One of the worst things to put about a
grave is an elaborate iron fence, which
looks like an ironmonger’s advertisement.
If the boundary must be marked, let it
l>o done by a low hedge, but wo much
prefer to see no boundary. In a well or
dered cemetery, the planting of trees
should only be done under the advice of
the superintendent, as these become so
large that they soon contribute to the gen
era 1 effeetaud are aslikely tobeout of, as in
the proper place. But in these general
considerations we are led away from the
subject of flowers. In the first place we
would avoid all gaudy colors, and in the
second place, select those which need but
little care. . This last may seem an unnec
essary caution to the recently bereaved ;
but we are so constituted that we can not
always mourn, and we have seen many
instances in which, for good reasons
doubtless, the.se floral decorations fell in
to a neglect which showed that they
were not well chosen. A good green fo
liage, with white flowers, is the combina
tion most appropriate toa funeral wreath,
ami is that which we prefer in lloral de
corations for the grave, though colored
flowers are admissible, provided they be
of delicate tints. Deutzia gracilis , a low
shrub, covered in sjiring with delicate
white flowers, will be suitable where cli
mate is no more severe than around New
Vork. Daphne cneorum, a low ever
green, with pink fragrant flowers and
hardy. The Black Hellebore, Christmas
rose, with large white flowers, blooming
in Kov. or March, though not very com
mon, is well suited to the purpose, as is
the perennial Candytuft— lberia semper
rirens, hardy and blooming freely, full of
trusses of white flowers. Among the most
appropriate flowers for the cemetery are
the bulbs, such as do not need lifting each
year. These spring up and flower, com
plete their growth, and die down, and re
peat this year after year, fit ‘‘emblems,
of our own great resurrection.” White
and bright colored Crocuses, and the
Snowflake, are desirable, and bloom in
early spring, while the Meadow Saffron
-Cnlvhic-um nuiumnnle, flowers in au
tumn , with lilac colored bloom. Among
the annuals, Sweet Alyssum is one of
the best, and it is self-sowing. All these
will answer with only occasional atten
tion, but where constant care can be giv
en, a great variety of bedding plants and
annuals may be used, avoiding bright
yellows, scarlets, and all glaring colors. —

i'Jie Ornamentation of Tables and Dishes.
Few are aware how thoroughly the eye
and palate are in sympathy, and in how
great a measure the appetite is modified
by the appearance of our food. The con
fectioners are aware of this fact, and pre
sent their wares in tempting colors, and
most of us can recollect seeing an other
wise good meal spoiled by being thrown
upon tlie dishes and set upon a soiled ta
ble-cloth. All will admit that neatness
ami order are essential in the arrange
ments of a tabic ; these are within the
reach of oven the poorest. Beyond these
there is decoration, ornamentation of our
I ables for the sole purpose of pleasing the
eye, alul this is sometimes carried to a
great extent. Wo wore once several days
a guest at a house where the ornamenta
tion was painfully elaborate, where each
day the flutter was carved (not stamped)
in some new form, and a pie was a work
of art which it seemed a pity to destroy.
Here the tiling was overdone and oppres
sive, and our readers can make better use
of their time than to devote it to anything
elaborate. Shill, wo "believe that those of
moderate means and in the humbler
-plieres may with propriety give more at
tention to the appearance of their tables
and tlie looks of tlie food upon them, the
first great requisite of neatness- being
complied with. There is no table in the
land, from the richest to the poorest, but
what would lie more attractive forabitpch
of Howers. These are decorations that
are always in place, and may be set in
vases of silver or crystal on (he board of
tlie millionaire, or occupy a cracked tumb
ler by the side of Fat's pork and potatoes.
Beside- Mowers, green upon the table is
always pleasing. In the spring half of
the relish of cresses and salads is due to
their fre-li look, and the fact that they
remind u- that winter lias gone and the
sea-on <<>'growth lias come. Every gaiv
den should have its patch of curled pars
ley, which will bo found useful in orna
menting many dishes, its line rich green
giving an attractive appearance. Just
notice tlie dillcrcnee in the appearance
of a supper table, where in one case the
ragged icmains of the roast or boiled of a
previous dinner are set on, and where
the same meat is nicely sliced and regu
larly laid upon a dish and surrounded by
a green border of parsley. This kind (if
ornamentation is unpretending and al
ii ays in good taste. A dish of spinach
may he made to look really beautiful by
having the surface nicely smoothed and
(lieu surrounded by a border of slices of
hard boiled eggs. Those who wish to at-
Icinpl something elaborate, can use car
rots and beets, these are readily cut into
-tar.-, crescents, scrolls, etc., by bending
up a strip of sheet tin into tlie desired
-hape and using it as a cutter. With
the-e materials a very showy border may
be placed around a platter. Of course the
extent to which dishes may with good
taste lie ornamented, will depend .-upon
the occasion and the surroundings. It
nliouid never he overdone. —American Ay

Good Corn Bread, and Pudding.—
The same money will purchase two or
three times as much nourishment iu corn
meal, as it will buy in wheat flour, audit
is a matter of economy to use as much of
iho former as can be made palatable.—
Of the hundreds of Corn Bread receipts
wo have published in the American Ag
riculturist none wo have tried, have
given as continued .satisfaction as the fol
lowing : 1 quart of sweet milk; 1 tea
spoonful of cooking soda; 1 teaoupfull of
molasses ; 3 tcaspoonfuls of salt; 4 teacup
mis of fine corn meal, and 3 to 4 teaeup-
I'uls. of wheat flour. Mix all well togeth
er, and bake slowly for an hour or more.
1 1 keeps moist for several days and is rel
ished by most persons. The proportion of
dour and meal maybe varied to suit the li
king, The above preparation,cooked in a
- teamer, makes a goodjpudding, to be eaten
with cream or milk and sugar, or butter
