A whole window of the Art Floral 

 Co. is devoted to handsome baskets of

are being shipped east. The other win- 

 dow has recently been filled with 

 orchids. 



Mrs. Darbee, of Darbee 's, says that 

 the best copy for holiday advertising is 

 to draw attention to the fact that one 

 cannot buy a gift that looks like any- 

 thing for less than $10 or $15, whereas, 

 for $5 one can buy a potted plant or 

 a basket of cut flowers that looks like

Miss Isabella B. Lacy, who recently 

 died in Oakland, where she grew flowers 

 for the market, has left a will that is

 cats. The executor had the felines 

 chloroformed, but he declines to execute 

 the old race horse or the two dogs. 

 "Anyone thinking that executing a will 

 is a snap, has another thought coming,"
