John Nylof, manager of Swanson's, 

 Minneapolis, was in Chicago this week 

 on his way to Sweden, called by the 

 illness of his wife. # 



The principal delegation to the F. T. 

 D. convention at Indianapolis will leave 

 here next Monday, October 11, at 5:30 

 p. m. The F. T. D. has twenty-five mem- 

 bers, not all of whom will attend, but 

 there will be a full representation of 

 order takers. 



Mrs. Albert F. Amling is confined to 

 her home in Maywood by an illness of 

 such duration that she has lost consid- 

 erable weight. Mr. Amling divides his 

 time between the office, the bank and 

 the house. 



John Mangel now expects to open his 



north side store, in the new Drake hotel, 



before Christmas. The opening of the 



' hotel has been delayed many weeks by 



summer strikes in the building trades. 



Charles Swanson, who trades as Swan- 

 son the Florist, is developing a highly 

 satisfactory business. His greenhouses 

 ; are at 7302 North Western avenue and 

 ' his retail store is at 6973 North Clark 

 - street. These are two sections of the 

 '. city in which growth is likely to be 

 '. moat rapid as soon as building opera- 

 tions start again. Mr. Swanson is a 

 member of the F. T. D. 



Bittersweet has been a prominent fea- 

 ture in the gorgeous decoration which 

 has been holding a crowd constantly be- 

 fore A. Lange's window. The center- 

 piece was a large basket of mixed flow- 

 ers in the rich reds and yellows of au- 

 tumn, in a setting of similar hue. With 

 due regard for the value of light, the 

 electrics in the window were burned 

 day and night. Homer Lange says each 

 passing month makes his father and 

 himself more appreciative of the merit 

 of their present location over the old 

 one only a block away.
