The Rorists* Review

store and, besides a nice counter trade, 

 much funeral work and many decora- 

 tions, she is working up an active ship- 

 ping business. Saturday, March 17, was 

 her best day to date, all departments of 

 the business making a splendid showing. 



For a new enterprise the California 

 Florial Co. reports business fully up to 

 expectations at its store on California 

 street. The location is near an impor- 

 tant street car transfer station, and 

 careful attention to the display has a 

 tendency to bring the waiting passen- 

 gers into the store. 



The Sunkist Floral Co., which opened 

 an attractive store a few weeks ago in 

 a new apartment house at Post and 

 Leavenworth streets, has decided to 

 give up the venture, as business did not 

 develop as rapidly as was expected. The 

 place has been dismantled and the fu- 

 ture activities of the proprietor have 

 not been announced. 



C. Kooyman reports a good cut of 

 American Beauty, Killarney and Rich- 

 mond roses. 



Frank H. Forrest, who recently 

 started in the decorating business on his 

 own account, is meeting with good suc- 

 cess. He has made contracts with va- 

 rious downtown business places to look 

 after their decorative work, and besides 

 has a good many wedding and other 

 decorations booked. One for April 25 

 is for an elaborate church wedding in 

 Berkeley, followed by a reception at the 

 Hotel Oakland. 



^ The Art Floral Co. has had a busy 

 week, the principal item being funeral 

 work. 



F. T. Schlotzhauer, proprietor of the 

 Francis Floral Co., is gratified that a 

 large new office and store building is 

 being erected on the opposite corner of 

 Powell and Sutter streets, as he figures 

 it will bring considerable extra business 

 to that district. He reports business 

 holding up well for the Lenten season. 



The force at B. M. Joseph's is busy 

 getting novelties ready for the Easter 

 rush. 



As a novelty for St. Patrick's day, a 

 member of Albert O. Stein 's force made 

 up some bouquets of new potatoes and 

 small onion sets, which created quite a 

 sensation at the stand in the Palace 

 hotel. One style was labeled "Mur- 

 phy's Irish bouquet," and the other 

 "Miss High Cost of Living." A good 

 many orders were taken and several 

 calls have come in since for similar 

 novelties. 



Manager Axell, of the E. W. McLel- 

 lan Co., considers indications excellent 

 for a heavy Easter shipping business, in 

 view of the advance orders already re- 

 ceived. 



The finishing touches are now being 

 put on Charles C. Navlct 's enlarged 

 store at San Jose, Cal., and he hopes to 

 be ready for the formal opening by 

 Easter. The establishment has been 

 i'ompletely rebuilt and embodies many 

 new features, which, it is said, will 

 make it one of the finest stores of its 

 kind on the Pacific coast. At the 

 Navlet stand in the Emporium depart- 

 ment store, of this city. Manager 

 Picetti savs business is holding up

The most rapturously and strikinsly beautiful little 

 rose ever introduced. The color is absolutely new and 

 startling in its brilliancy— golden yellow, tipped with 

 clear cerise. The little buds and open flowers are ele- 

 gantly finished and of most perfect form. Habit of the 

 very best, strong and compact; freedom of bloom is 

 remarkable and continuous throughout the entire sea- 

 son. We have given it a fair and thorough trial and 

 have noiiesitancy in offering it as the one best selling 

 rose yon ever handled. It is a money-maker.
