THE FIRST IMPRESSION. 



WHEN making a delivery the first impression is made by the box. 

 Of course the flowers contained in it cannot fail to please, but 

 you did not make the flowers. Your contribution toward the perfec- 

 tion of the whole is the box. A well made, neat and attractive box is 

 the only means you have to impress your connection with the tran- 

 saction, so why not make the box your opportunity to impress your 

 name on the memory of those who receive the flowers?

There are twenty-five miles of freight 

 congestion on the belt road around In- 

 dianapolis and it is thought that nu- 

 merous cases of azaleas have been 

 caught in this, as they are arriving in 

 poor condition, some wet and frozen 

 and others dried out. Good azaleas for 

 Christmas will therefore be scarce. 



E. H. Rieman has a fine single chrys- 

 anthemum, of a pleasing shade of pink, 

 which bids fair to become a popular 

 variety, owing to its lateness. 



Largely on account of the fire at the 

 establishment of the Capital Paper Co., 

 which caused a loss estimated at $150,- 

 000, in one day's time the price of 

 paper jumped 35 cents on the ream and 

 twine was raised 3 and 4 cents on the 

 ball. 



Coal has been so scarce that the flo- 

 rists who have contracted for their sup- 

 ply have received just a few tons at a 

 time. The supply of Pocahontas has 

 been exhausted.

 expecting a big evergreen trade for
