office last week. Each envelope carried 

 a special delivery stamp. 



This is the season when many florists 

 spend a good share of their time on the 

 road in their cars. Dozens have driven 

 to Cleveland this week, some making it 

 in two days, some in three. But listen 

 to what Floren Cipar did. Last Friday 

 morning at 7:30 he left St. Louis. At 

 11 p. m. he walked into his flower store 

 at 7121 South Halsted street. The 

 speedometer showed 355 miles covered in 

 fifteen and one-half hours. That's go- 

 ing some, especially with a Dodge car 

 and one's wife and three children. 



Bassett & Washburn report that the 

 demand for Eussell rose plants on the 

 coast has not abated; they have 

 shipped to growers near San Francisco 

 all the stock they could spare. 



John P. Degnan is back at his desk 

 at Henderson's Seed Store. 



John T. Muir says he has discovered a 

 value in telegraph delivery orders he 

 has not heard anybody mention. This 

 is it: When an order comes from a dis- 

 tant city, as like as not it calls for de- 

 livery to someone who never has bought 

 flowers at Muir's, for Chicago is a big 

 town and there are many places where 

 flowers may be had. In such a case Mr. 

 Muir sees his opportunity and does his 

 best. It frequently results in gaining a 

 good new customer. "We feel that not 

 only our reputation is at stake, but that 

 of our correspondent as well," says he; 

 "hence the importance of executing 

 these orders in a manner that will re- 

 flect credit on all." 



Edward Goldenstein is receiving con- 

 gratulations from his many friends on 

 his election to a vice-presidency at 

 Vaughan's Seed Store. . 



C. O. Wilcox, who travels in the 

 southeast for Wood, Stubbs & Co., 

 Louisville, has been at home for a few 

 days. 



P. C. Schupp spent the week end at 

 Lake Geneva, where the Budlong and 

 Schupp families have summer homes. 



Mr. and Mrs. Cornelius van den Bos 

 celebrated their golden wedding anni- 

 versary August 13, at 1212 West Sixty- 

 Third street. Mr. van den Bos is rose 

 gardener at Jackson park. He is 70 

 years of age. His wife is 73 and they 

 are great-grandparents. They declare 

 "early to bed and early to rise" is the
