They require, states an overseas journal, a certain touch which only the true lover of flowers can give, and that is "’lvy often people who are quite inartistic in the ordinary way know bow lo arrange a bowl of garden flowers to .perfection. _ There should be nothing “studied about, them. It. is foolish to " oir Y •about colours clashing, for such flowers never can clash, however much of a colour mixture you may ha\e in •your bowl.
