ART IN FLOWER ARRANGEMENT.
The new rough, gTeen glass bowls, of immense dimensions are the best possible media for the display of floral branches, since they permit the stems to be seen and the whole line to be appreciated. The glass is peculiarly thick and tough, and should prove as little liable to breakage as pottery. In Japan, special professors teach the. art of flower-arrangement and how to displaj- cut blossoms to give the effect of their still being in a state of growth. According to these authorities, each bowl or vase of flowers should be given a table or a shelf to itself. They consider that it is unfair to the. blossoms to compete with other decorative objects. Might we not take a hint from these professors and display our flowers to better advantage?
