entire range will be remodeled in the

When speaking of charmed lives, 

 Oscar Wiegand, 2011 North Halsted 

 street, and John Schmid, 911 Montana 

 street, are not to be forgotten. While 

 gliding along a north side boulevard 

 one day last week in Mr. Schmid 's 

 automobile, they saw an undertaker's 

 car bearing down on them without re- 

 gard for consequences. Mr. Schmid 

 made a sharp turn, his automobile up- 

 set and slid some distance. With the 

 exception of a bruised shoulder, Mr. 

 Schmid is all right and but for a few 

 stiflf muscles, Mr. Wiegand. is as fit 

 as ever. 



In the opinion of AUie Zech, of Zech 

 & Mann, one of the most pleasant and 

 profitable features of the St. Louis visit 

 was the trip through the Missouri Bo- 

 tanical Garden. He said it was not pos- 

 sible to spend nearly as much time in 

 the different houses as one would like. 

 The desert house in particular claimed 

 the attention of Chicago florists. 



After undergoing an operation for 

 peritonitis last week in the north side 

 German hospital, Mrs. T. M. Waters is 

 convalescing as rapidly as could be 

 expected. 



The duration of the present stretch 

 of short supply breaks all records, ac- 

 cording to A. C. Kohlbrand, of the E. C. 

 Amling Co., who is one of the veterans. 

 He says the arrival of bulbous stock 

 in quantity does not seem to have cur- 

 tailed the out-of-town demand as it 

 usually does. 



William Homberg is able to be out 

 after an illness with tonsillitis and grip. 

 He is no longer with Percy Jones. 



After spending six weeks in town, 

 C. W. McKellar reopened his country 

 home January 31.
