return. Two French papers treated me 

 pretty well,- announcing that I had ar- 

 rived in Paris and giving considerable 

 space to my mission. 



"I went to Lyons to see the great 

 chiffon factories. It was a surprise to 

 find that the same machines that turn 

 out the expensive grades used in dress 

 goods also turn out our pretty but less 

 costly stock. 



"I had queer experiences traveling to 

 the south of France to see the immor- 

 telles. The immortelle growers there 

 are banding together, as we do here, 

 for better prices. 



"I secured quite a lot of novelties. 

 One of these is natural prepared 

 flowers. That means that natural 

 flowers are made durable by subjecting 

 them to a process that has been 

 patented. I secured the American 

 agency for these flowers. 



"Another novelty is the tinsel rib- 

 bon. It comes in silver and in gold. It 

 is intended for a smart corsage. I 

 thought so well of it that I brought a 

 case back with me on the steamer to 

 show. Everybody who has seen it 

 likes it. 



"Another novelty is the wood flow- 

 ers — flowers made of wood. They are 

 intended for ornamenting baskets. I 

 gave Martin Reukauf some. He has 

 sold a lot of them already.

settled on Tuesday; then our goods will 

 come pouring in. There are several 

 steamers that have a large number of 

 cases for us." 



Various Notes. 



The Henry F. Michell Co. has se- 

 cured a long lease on the 5-story build- 

 ing at 516 Market street. The lease, 

 which is dated July 1, permits the 

 opening of arches between this build- 

 ing and the company's own building at 

 518 Market street. This will give the 

 Henry F. Michell Co. a little more than 

 double the present large floor space. 

 The improvements will be commenced 

 at once.
