A. Hamor. A FLORAL TERRESTRIAL GLOBE (Fro?u one of our grown-up readers) St. Louis, St. Nicholas: I send you by this mail a photo-graph of a beautiful floral globe. It was at least fifteenfeet in diameter, and was made of a framework with recep-tacles for potted plants. The coleus plants of which it wasmade were placed very close together, and the pots wereinvisible. The plants were watered from the inside as wellas the outside. The countries were made of dark redplants, and the oceans were made of very light green. a globe made of living plants. plants, with white and pale yellow variegations. The bedat the base of the globe was made of the same colors. Ido not think there is any black-and-white picture that couldever do it justice. Respectfully, Ruby Butler.
