4Saaai TH LOWES GARDES. A&S FOll THS LAWS. On a terraced lawn, rases are espe cially handsome, but are always in keeping with trim, well-kept grounds. They should be placed near the bonse and always upon a pedestal or firm bane which gaves an air of permanence and stability. Vases of real stone, granite or mar ble, are elegant but too costly for gen eral use. Inventive genins, however, supplies ns with graceful and dettirahle forms in fine Tattcry, cast-iron or arti ficial stone at f.xlerate prices. Ynccas and American aloes are stately plants well suited for vase cnlture and are finest when grown alone. Cunnas, enpherbiers, salvias and crinnms are alno good. Palms are very suitable for this purpose, areca lutes cens being one of the best. The most ukuuI way of planting is with a tall plant of ornamental foliage in the centre, with a few of ower growth around and drooping vines at the border. High growiug plants tins for centres are viciunx, wiimivier.i zealariica and a number of the cacti. Oreus giganteus anil hillocactus lati frons are goo.l speciuiens. Another odd and ilpsirablo plant in Xeropliillum Asphodeloiiles, a hnrly perennial with tropical-looking evergreen foliage bear ing large clusters of white (loners from 6 to 10 iurhes long, growing on high Btalks. Concermug this plunt the London Ganltn Bays: At thu Itoyul Botanical Show in Loudon, Lord Walsingliam exhibited two splendid masses of these showy plants which were the prettiest things there anion hardy flowers. Lower growingplnnts to plant around these tall centres will be lound in the ornamental leaved geraniums and grasses, cineraria and ferns, and some of the new varieties of aspurugus with filmy, lace-like foliage. A teuui.ssimus is a climbing sort, valuable and pretty for the border with its airy, deli. -ate leaves. Cypress vine and thnnbergia and bryonia are also recommended. Care should be taken to plant together plants retiring the i-ame treatment, as one requiring moiNture and slmdy ex posure will not thrive if given the dry and sunny treatment demundid by others. Vanes or baskets of rustic work are pleasing substitutes for pottery and may be made by the amateur liandy with saw and Littcliet. A tripod of gnarled branches forms the ped stal, while, a wooden box la round cheese box is good i serves as the body of the vaae. Covered with split pieces, with the bark left on, they are very pic turesque ami may lie given more or less embellishment, according to the taste and ingenuity of the maker. As many of the plauts an. I tints given are somewhat expensive iili.l beyond the reach of limit, il pursi s, perhaps the following suggestions from a writer in the Mnifjloivrr may prove of vulue to some of our readers: 1 thiuk 1 will tell you about my ase (?) for the yard, which I male and which has been a delight nearly all Hnmmer. X wanted a vnse and couldn't alTonl one that cost auvtiiing, so I set mv Yankee wits at work to devise one. e'liad a dead plum tree some six inchos through, whi-h I had Bawed olf three or less feet from the ground; on it I fastened substantially a large wooden chopping bowl laiuted lead color, which a mouth leforH I had lire pared by placing in the bottom plenty of sticks and stones for drainage; tilling with light, rich soil, in it 1 set in the middle a red and white Fuchsia and a shabby green and cream color foliage plant of w hich I do not know the name. and which will live in the cellar throngh the Wiuter, surrounding them with the following plants: two wi le Holleroi Geraniums on each side of bowl, two pluntsof Farfiiguion (irumle, one golden leaf Geranium, .Musk plant and Uxalis, tilling in around the edge with Ottioutin and variegated Irale- cantia, at the foot of the tree I set a root of Madeira vino, which I trained up the trunk, and v. rilv thnt , lum tree though not hearing fruit 1 a been a wealth of beauty, and i have W en well satisfied with my vase, hurfu guion is indeed grand, and nil who do not have it ought to, especially those woo nave suudy places (it likes the sun in the house in the Winter), its beauti ful spotted leaves droop over the edge and mingle with the green and white of Geranium Solleioi, and over all the Fuchsias droop, and I only wish I lived where it never would freeze, but soon, ah soon, the frost king will be here and all not sheltered will be laid low. I wonder if beautiful things fade so quickly here to remind us that there is land of never fading flowers? Mm i Dianthui laclniatuj. DIANTHUS iW). SOWINO TUB SRED. Seed sowing Is an art that practice and experience nlono can bring to per fection, but timely hints will some times prevent the beginner from mak ing serious blunders. The difference in soil and climate mid the time of year have, also, to bo taken into considera tion, as well as the seed itself. Com mon seni-e will teach ns that the tiny aeeds of roppy and portulaca will neeo but a light cover ami that peas and nasturtium must have a deeper plant ing. Except in very damp ground the soil should bo well pressed down, or firmed," as the gardeners term it; while in damp, heavy earth a light cover is best, us the moisture is suffi cient to sprout them and a heavy soil pressed firmly upon the seeds will chill them and ra ise them to oecny in nine cases ont of ten. For the mn'ne reason, seeds sow n in early Spring diould le more lightly covered than those sown in June when the earth has become dry and warm, nud see Is will Luirn in the hot Summer sun. The deeper the soil the firmer should be the covering. Never has thero been snch a wealth of floral treasures lrom which to choose, and never have they been of fered so cheaply as now. Lnrope is ending ns the novelties grown by years of patient work. Africa con tributes the giant of the flower family; Asia is profuse in her fragrant offer ings, and our sister continent is not be hind in her lavish gifls, while from the islands of the sea come orchids of rarest form and exquisite o lois fathered at peril of life a .d health in iheir death Ireathin,' forests. Hut in sowing the seed, or the plant, or the bulb, it should always be re membered thut a few, well-grown healthy plants showing their owner's love and watchful cure is better than the scraggiy growth of many whose awner, in the rage for novelties, has planted more than can be well-cared for, and whose needs are neglected. ,PlMttirHMewlgTTr Pinks are favorite little flowers and grow well from seeds, some of then flowering the first season. The Japan pinks iDianthns lleddewiggi), are o! large size and glowing colors. D Lnciniatns is especially beantiful witl its deep fringed edges and magnificent colors. To this Fame family belong the splendid carnations, the velvety Sweet Williams, and the old grass pink sc common in borders. They are all very ilesirable in the garden and both carna tions and dianthus make favorite pot plants. 1 he pheasant-eyed pink, Dianthui pliimarius, is a winning little flowei that one cannot help lint admire. For the illustration in this numbei thnuks are due Parker Sc Wood, ol Boston, Mass. The catalogue of thh firm which we have just received it very a' tractive. The first thirty pagei are pink-tinted and devoted to descrip tion of various specialties, with illus trations of mammoth cabbages, squishes and melons which makef one's mouth water, and fine noveltief among the flowers which we are all nre to want. They also make a prize offer foi which there will nudoubiedly be much ;ompetition. F.i.izpeth Robins PesneijTj writes in 'Die L'ututanruan ior May of an ex periment in co-operative housekeeping iih.d to be put in operation in Chis aick, England, within half an hour of London by underground railway. The I buildings are now being erected on four sides of a quadrangle containing ix acres. She thus desciilies the plau: Some of the rooms are in flats for those who prefer to have every thing on the same floor; others are arranged ns in the usual two, three, or four-story house. And in no way do they differ from the ordinary flat or house except that they are without kitchen, scullery, Dr servants' rooms. F'or these there is no need. A large stall of servants, engaged to do the work of the entire establishment, will tie under the direction of a matron. So many, according to the size of your house, will b.j told off to do your work, l'liev will come at the honr you want in t lie morning, they will do all that has to be done in the wav of making ' ImhIh, dusting, ami cleaning. When their regular day's tusk is over, a cer tain number will always be on hand in rooms for the pnrose, stationed every here and there in the two rows of houses; if you want anything, yon have but to ring- If your work is not prop erty done you complain to the matron. All responsibility rests with her. She, and not 3 on, will eng ige and discharge yonr maids. As for the kitchens, the large one in ihe Club House will be nil that is re quired. A good ehtf at a good salary will he secured, in the morning, if vou intend to be nt home for luncheon mil dinner, yon will give in yonr orders. Whenever you lire ready for Milier meal you will go from your own house to the large dining room by way jf a covered arcade, or cloister, that is to run round iu front f the houses, so thnt you may wa k there without wrap 3r bonnet, just as if you were stepping lown st urs iu your own house. The dining-ro mi will be divided into lepnra e little compartments or cubi les; yon will have your own reserved for you, where you will always be lerveil by your own waiters and where you cau have your table set to sui vour.-clf. Your dinner can be as e'aborate or simple as yon care to make it. If you wish to give a dinner party, there are private rooms which you can engage by bespeaking them in time. If vou wish at the last moment to hriug a friend home with yon, yon have but to send word to the head a ter. There will also be rooms that can be rented by any oue who wants a friend to stay with him and has no extra space in his own quarters. The open qii-idranglo will be devoted to tennis courts and cricket grounds. Swimming baths for men and women will be built in the Club Honse. There will be play rooms for children, a gym nasium, a large hall for entertain ments, and studios. A telephone will connect every house with the porter's lodae. When visitors come the porter can find out, without their troubling to go farther, whether the friends they want to see are at nonie or not. If yon go away for any length of time, you have but to stint up jour house and leave the key with the porter, tie will forward all letters, take charge of all parcels. lint indeed there is not the smallest detail which has not been carefully thought out and provided for.

Hegnaul has raised the question us to whether a corpse which si.iks to i very great depth is preserved indefi nitely or otherwise from putrefaction. Acco ding to his researches, published in the archives of the Itiological So ciety of Paris, putrefaction does not lake place in decomposable substances -nbinitted to a pressure of COO to 700 itmospheres. These figures correspond to a depth of 6000 or 7000 metres at ea. From theo experiments it must not be concluded, according to Dr. Kegnard, that there is a total absence f putrefaction in the greater depths f the sea. The curious "abysmal' tishrs discovered in the Challenger and ither expeditions appear to rise after leath, so that they ure sometimes found n I he surface, thoug'i. as a rule, they to to pieces as the Mirroundinjr pres sure diminishes, long before they recti he air. Still, there is no proof that iatli) bial or abysmal micro-organisms lo not exist, and, if so, they could aiie decomposition in the corpses of nen as well as in t lie dead bodies of lbysmal fishes.

THE TLArsIBLK PERSON. Ilie plati3ible person x very trying ;o average humanity. He is never in the wrong; that's the worst of him he is never taken at a iisadvantage, or "found out;" wher ever he is, and whatever he is doing, he can always aecona for himself; and ii. ..t -..-i,.;,,.,,, irnrntr. somehow invariablv redound to his cre.lit as soon as he begins to explain them to ns. He does things that would cover another man with shame and ig-1 nominy; and he not only does them with impunity, but with positive ad- I vantage to his reputation; mud thrown at him may stick, but it entirely fails to soil his spotless garment: on the con- trarv, it is at once transformed, as it were, and becomes a veritable adorn-: ment an added grace, instead of a ca lso of humiliation. Who can wonder thit merolv averaoe hnmanitv should resent this, and long oh, so earnestly to put the plausible person in the wrong, just for once, in his life? If ihia conld be done, he would surely be Jess aggressively right for the rest of his days, and a far pleasanter and more agreeable companion in consequence.

He keeps very sent free on application to buyers all quiet, while others perform his duties for him; sitting down with a pleased smile, while those about him run to and fro attending to a thousand and one matters which he has neglected, though they were clearly in his province. But if you hope to rou e him to an acknowledgement of his shortcomings by pointing this out to him, von wdl find yourself bitterly' mistaken; he will tell you that he only does it to please them, and at a great sacrifice of inclination on his part; that no one knows what it costs him to leave to others those simple duties which ho wonld far rather discharge himself, but that he has never been in the habit of making his own inclination his guide, or of considering it iu his rule of life. Moreover, if he himself did everything always, no one else would ever be capable of doing anything; and, in short, that "whetever is," so far as he is concerned, "is right." Under which circumstances, you will soon find your self compelled to retire from the un equal contest with such dignity as you may; lor who can argne to any profit with snch plausible self-sufficiency as this? When the plausible person is of the gentler sex how infinitely annoying she can be. Jn yonth or in age, in poverty or in wealth, the plausible woman is alike aggravating with a difference, of conrsel bnt a difference not of kind but of degree. Take a plausib'e wash- erwoman, for instance; is there any- thing on earth so irritating or so nn- assailable? Securely entrenched be- hind her soapsmls themselves no whiter than her own spotless conscience she defies criticism, and has a ready explanation for every mysterious dis appearance from "the wash." Do you charge her with the limpness of yonr collars, the dampness of yonr linen, she has her answer ready, and, whatever it may be, it is sure to lie an un mswer- able one, for is she not a plausible person, and therefore justly entitled to the last word? You may know her ex- planation is really no explanation at all; that her plausible statement is a care- fully "got-up" lie or such a "mangled" version of the truth as to be changed past all recognition but yon cannot prove this; you cannot prove thnt your ' tablecloth hadn't a hole in it wheu'you committed it to her tender mercies, or that your stockings have been washed a dozen times before without chaug.ng color. You cannot prove, either, that she uses unprincipled chemical prepara- i tions to the lightening of her labot labors at i the wash-tub and the destruction of yonr wardrobe; but though the plausi ble washerwoman disproves it conclu sively, you do not believe her; thongh she hus the last word, yours is not the silence of conviction, but of exhaus tion. The plausible person revels in do mestic service; as a "general" she burns our meat, serves np onr potatoes as hard as cannon-balls, and drops onions into onr jam; she moves about the dust, but does not remove it. But for all these things she has her reas n, and she can justify each and all of them plausibly euongh to onr manifold dis comfiture.
