GRAND RAPIDS, MICH- 



Supply and Demand. 



There has been lately as many 

 changes in the weather as colors in 

 Joseph's coat; first cold, then hot, then 

 wet. then the combination, with a 

 sickly attempt on the part of Old Sol 

 to smile approval on all. The push 

 cart and peddler wagon, sure harbin- 

 gers of spring, once more make their 

 customary rounds with spring bulbs, 

 callas and flowering plants, at prices 

 that make the store man groan. 



The demand is still in- excess of the 

 supply, and as yet there has been no 

 lull in business. Indications of Lent 

 show this to be the busiest Lent ever 

 known. Flowering plants in pots are 

 now beginning to move lively; every- 

 one seems to want something in flower 

 for the window. 



Notes. 



Henry Smith has rented a store on 

 the corner of Monroe and North Divi- 

 sion, which he is remodeling and fit- 

 ting up in first-class style. Henry will 

 now have the finest store in town, with 

 a total frontage of forty feet, and it 

 will make the rest of the stores hustle 

 to keep their pace. 



Mr. B. B. Blair, late with T. R. Ren- 

 wick & Co., has accepted a position 

 with F. J. Meech, of Charlevoix, Mich., 

 and Frank Burckie, of Chicago, takes 

 Mr. Blair's place at Renwick's. 



H. D. Bayers, with the Dayton Paper 

 Novelty Co., was in town the past 

 week, boxing orders, of course. 



A large dry goods store gave away 

 500 roses to its customers the latter 

 part of the week, and more are ex- 

 pected to follow the good example set. 



The contract for the cemetery bed- 

 ding has been awarded to Crabb & 

 Hunter; geraniums at ?G per 100; the 

 alternanthera lettering at $1.75 per let- 

 ter. Paul Goebel & Son get two ger- 

 anium beds, same rate.
