 Adolph Kaiser of Annapolis, Md., has 

 entered the employ of J. H. Small & 

 Sons.

 very active in the campaign looking 

 toward the Sunday closing of all 

 stores in Anacostia.

 week celebrated their silver wedding 

 surrounded by intimate friends and 

 relatives, at their home in Suitland. 

 Prince George County, Md. 



Work on the new front which is be- 

 ing erected at the store of Z. D. 

 Blackistone on Fourteenth street is 

 progressing rapidly and upon comple- 

 tion the store will be one of the finest 

 iu the city. 



The Washington Florists' Company, 

 Thirteenth and F streets, N. W., are 

 showing some very remarkable chrys- 

 anthemums and have a fine window 

 display with these as the leaders. The 

 background consists of a rustic arch 

 from which is suspended vari-colored 

 pennants bearing the word "Washing- 

 ton." 



Miss Florence McNeice, who was 

 formerly connected with her mother.

 the House committee on agriculture is 

 mentioned as his successor. There

 perhaps, there will be none. 



The department store of S. Kanns & 

 Sons Co., is handsomely decorated this 

 week with chrysanthemums and Amer- 

 ican Beauty roses and enormous quan- 

 lities of greens, ferns and palms, in 

 honor of the firm's eighteenth birth-

 large summer house complete!} cot 

 ered with asparagus and other greens

 ing long-stem Beauties. This display 

 is a gift from the employes of the store

 also did the interior decorating. Kami's 

 is not a small one by any means
