Prices still rule high. Keceipts are in- 

 creasing. Curiously enough valley is a 

 shade more plentiful than during Sep- 

 tember, The receipts have increased 

 faster than the demand. Boses are 

 about equal to the demand, except for 

 white, which is at times not to be ob- 

 tained. The novelties iBire in request. 

 Bouvardia and double violets from the 

 Hudson river are here. Shipping is ex- 

 cellent. The demand for greens is a 

 trifle stronger.

In the Style of Louis Seize. 

 Charles Henry Fox has issued invi- 

 tations to his sisters and brothers in 

 the profession to visit his new business 

 home at 221 South Broad street, Mon- 

 day, October 13. They will find a beau- 

 tiful shop, decorated in the style preva- 

 lent in the time of the unfortunate 

 Louis XVI, King of France. The in- 

 terior is finished in that shade of white 

 that is light yet lacks the dazzling 

 quality that tires the eye, with graceful 

 tracery above. The furniture is in 



keeping with the age and in harmony 

 with walls and ceiling. The chandelier 

 is a masterpiece, its cut glass pendants 

 scintillating. One side is devoted to the 

 showcase. It is divided in half, cooled 

 by an ice machine, with bunkers over- 

 head for natural ice in case of need. Its 

 beauty is enhanced by mirrors and elec- 

 tric lights above. Its economic value is 

 increased by a row of stationary vases 

 that may be automatically filled and 

 emptied of water; the smaller vases in 

 front are movable. On the opposite 

 side from the showcase are beautiful 

 wall mirrors, giving the appearance of 

 light and space beyond that adds to the 

 effectiveness. Then come the telephone 

 booths, handsomely finished, and the 

 desk. Behind the shop are the receiv-
