around the corner at 5525 Harper ave- 

 nue, it has a good start. 



A new sales manager made his ap- 

 pearance on the floor of A. T. Pyfer & 

 Co., September 25. His name is E. J. 

 Mohr, and up to the end of last week 

 he was manager for A. Lange, 25 East 

 Madison street. 



One of those to find himself a loser 

 in no inconsiderable amount as a re- 

 sult of the Industrial Savings Bank's 

 closing its doors was Emil Jehlik, of 

 1825 South Ashland avenue. 



A new store was opened at 955 East 

 Fifty-fifth street, September 23, by 

 H. Jacobsen. Though he has never be- 

 fore operated a store, Mr. Jacobsen is 

 not new to the trade, as he has been 

 working in one branch of it or another 

 all his life. Trained in Denmark, he 

 has been employed as gardener on va- 

 rious estates, ampng them those of 

 J. Ogden Armour and Henry Bosch. 

 At one time he was employed in the 

 greenhouses of Bassett & Washburn. 

 For some time he has h«en gardener at 

 the Home of the Incuraoies, East Fifty- 



sixth street and Ellis avenue. This 

 position he will continue to hold, em- 

 ploying a young lady to take care of 

 his store. As the store is in the same 

 block as the new Frolic theater, it 

 should prove a good stand. 



A most interesting biography of 

 George Harrer, of Morton Grove, ap- 

 pears in a pictorial town book by 

 E. Palma Beaudette. In it we learn 

 that Mr. Harrer was the organizer of 

 the village and its president for four- 

 teen years. He was also a member of 

 the first school board and one of the 

 organizers of the volunteer fire depart- 

 ment. He has 20,000 square feet of 

 glass and three and a half acres of 

 ground. At present he is a member of 

 the board of trustees of the village, 

 August F. Poehlmann being president. 



Wendland & Keimel Co., Elmhurst,

The president of the Chrysanthemum 

 Society of America-again has appointed 

 N. J. Wietor chairman of the Chicago 

 committee to examine seedlings and 

 sports on behalf of the society. The 



other members of the Chicago commit- 

 tee are George Asmus and Thomas W, 

 Head. 



The International Forwarding Co. 

 was unloading five cars of Dutch bulbs 

 September 25, two cars off the S. S. 

 Poeldyk and three cars off the S. S. 

 Noordam, the two steamers that reached 

 New York September 18. One car was 

 for Winterson's Seed Store, while a 

 large number of consignees were repre- 

 sented in the others. 



The tall, new chimney of the Albert 

 P. Amling Co., Maywood, has become 

 a landmark visible for miles around. 



Robert Newcomb, of the American 

 Bulb Co., has been attending the state 

 fair at Springfield. Secretary Koehler 

 and the home force are busy with bulb 

 imports. The fourth floor of the 

 Lemoyne building, the oflSce being lo- 

 cated on the street floor, is being used 

 for warehouse and shipping purposes.

 Sons, had not stepped from their place 

 of business to the street at a certain 

 moment September 26, the firm would
