of my acquaintance not in the center,

 he can have crowds all day long? I 

 know but I'm not going to tell you

 your love letters short, so she'll wish 

 there was more." 



NEWS NOTES. 

 Chicago, III. — The Chicago Rose Co. 

 has moved to the basement of number 

 6 Wabash Ave. 



The old established florist business 

 of James Boiling, Montgomery street 

 and West Side avenue, Jersey City, 

 N. J., will hereafter be carried on by 

 Mr. Boiling's son Charles. 



Detroit, Mich. — John Breitmeyer's 

 Sous are giving their Mack avenue 

 plant a thorough overhauling and will 

 erect two new houses 50 x 150 feet and 

 also an office building. Their neigh- 

 borhood has been so thoroughly built 

 up with first-class residences that it 

 became a necessity to open that place 

 tor general business. Formerly noth- 

 ing whatsoever was being sold at the 

 greenhouses. 



Our advertising columns announce 

 the removal of Phil. F. Kessler from 

 the premises which he has occupied 

 for a number of years in the Coogan 

 Building, New York City, to the 

 second lloor above, in the same build- 

 ing. We are always glad to note 

 evidences of growing prosperity in the 

 case of such worthy representatives of 

 the wholesale florist trade as Mr. 

 Kessler. His popularity with the trade 

 of New York has been achieved in the 

 right way and, in his new and com- 

 modious quarters, his business will 

 undoubtedly continue to grow and 

 prosper.

CHICAGO NOTES. 

 A Wedding Decoration. 

 A canopy of a new type was made 

 b.v A. Lange for the Rice-Greenfelder 

 wedding at the Congress Hotel. In- 

 stead of the one centre support which 

 takes up the room needed for the wed- 

 ding party this canopy was supported 

 on either side, leaving the center clear. 

 It was studded with electric lights and 

 occupied one end of the Florentine par- 

 lor, while the other end of the room 

 was used for the tables, being separ- 

 ated by a partition of palms. The 

 table of the bridal party was of heart 

 shape with Killarney roses and lily of 

 the valley in Austrian vases, and the 

 six guest tables surrounded it, each 

 one having a basket of Killarney in 

 the center. The large fountain, with 

 Its electric lights, was surrounded with 

 ferns. Boston ferns also hung from 

 the balconies. A model shower bou- 

 quet of white sweet peas attracted 

 much attention in Mr. Lange's window. 



An Advertising Retailer. 



H. R. Hughes, who has won fame as 

 an advertiser of unusual ability and 

 unique methods, has now installed a 

 stereopticon which from an opening 

 in the roof of his store throws pic- 

 tures upon the side of an adjoining 

 building which can be seen for a long 

 distance in several directions. Last 

 month a hundred children danced in 

 the spacious windows of his store and 

 various calcium lights were thrown 

 upon the scene, making a sight never 

 to be forgotten. Mr. Hughes plans 

 all his attractions and writes his own 

 stories whicli accompany them, and 

 says that financially the publicity 

 pays well. 



Trade and Personal Notes. 



A cablegram from O. P. Bassett and 

 bride announces their safe arrival on 

 the other side. 



Fred Munzing sailed for England on 

 the Lusitania on the 7th. He will 

 spend the summer there 



It is rumored that F. Fuhrmann of 

 3166 N. Clark street will soon open a 

 new place on Evanston avenue. 



D. Papatorry has taken a five years' 

 lease at 53 Randolph in the Masonic 

 Temple. He will run this in addition 

 to his store in the Briggs Hotel. 



June 2nd made a record for the 

 coldest June day in many years. Hall 

 fell in many parts of the city and 

 masses of ice four inches deep that 

 accumulated between houses were un- 

 melted the following afternoon. 



The Killarney rose is exceedingly 

 popular this week. A beautiful table 

 was arranged at the Blackstone by 

 Harry Rowe. The center piece was a 

 mass of the roses with long streamers 

 of Asparagus plumosus, overlaid with 

 roses. The corsage bouquets were pink 

 sweet peas.
