MONTREAL CHRISTMAS HAPPEN- 

 INGS AND PERSONALS. 



Now that Christmas is over we have 

 time to count our joys and sorrows 

 and talk about what the other fellow 

 has done. Trade was very good with 

 beautiful weather until nearly noon 

 Christmas day, when the "Beautiful" 

 came down pretty lively. Cut flowers 

 did not sell perhaps as well as usual, 

 but the great sale of plants more than 

 made up for it. 



Mr. Gray of Sinclair's, Wright Floral 

 Co., Harris & Hopton, Miss Murray, 

 McKenna, Rennie & Cooper, and Hall 

 & Robinson report stores crowded 

 with eager buyers all Christmas eve. 

 The latter firm had some very fine 

 cyclamens, some of which had over 

 150 flowers. McKenna's store was 

 prettily decorated with long streamers 

 of silk ribbons in various hues and 

 holly wreaths. Christmas trees were 

 in great demand and there were not 

 half enough to go around. Mistletoe 

 was very scarce, but holly was in 

 quantity and well berried. 



A. Gilmore of Montreal West was 

 burned out the Saturday before Chrlsi- 

 mas. This is a new place and Mr. Gil- 

 more has the sympathy of the trade. 

 I have just heard that he intends re- 

 tiring from business and has sold out 

 to Harris & Hopton. 



Goulet's driver was recently sent out 

 with some C. 0. D. goods but he never 

 came back until one of the "finest" 

 landed him, and he is now doing time 

 with his Christmas dinner thrown in 

 on a bargain. 



Bert Graves, whose brother's death 

 is noted in the obituary columns, is 

 much improved in health, but is giv- 

 ing up his store, his impaired health 

 rendering this necessary. 



One of Judge's boilers gave out 

 Christmas week with the thermome- 

 ter 20 below zero, but they fixed up 

 stoves and saved their stock. 



Dupuy & Ferguson are having their 

 store repainted and are getting ready 

 for spring. Cooper is also putting in 

 new fixtures. 



Bain will remove May first from his 

 Catherine street store, his landlord re- 

 requiring the store for himself. 



Wm. Cooper, Jr., is spending his va- 

 cation with friends at Hawkesburg, 

 Ont. 



George F. Struck, who has for a 

 number of years successfully repre- 

 sented the orchid specialists. Lager & 

 Hurrell, on the road, has widened his 

 scope and will hereafter also represent 

 the F. R. Pierson Company with a gen- 

 eral line of greenhouse plants, bulbs 

 and fancy nursery stock.
