a mile-long business, theater and hotel 

 section that rapidly is becoming one of 

 the famous thoroughfares of the world. 



Doubling the size of his store and im- 

 proving its arrangement and appearance 

 has resulted in a prompt increase in 

 business for J. H. McNeilly, on East 

 Sixt\'-third street. 



In some of the eastern stores a big 

 variety of stock is carried, but most 

 of the Chicago stores confine them- 

 selves to the staples. The E. Wienhoe- 

 ber Co., on Elm street, probably carries 

 a larger variety of flowers than any 

 other store in the city. North State 

 street will buy lupines, calendulas and 

 things of that character, while South 

 State street will not look at such 

 flowers. 



The weather for May was most un- 

 usual. The first half of the month was 

 seasonable, but in the latter half every 

 day was from 3 degrees to 24 degrees 

 warmer than normal. Precipitation ex- 

 ceeded normal by 1.86 inches, but the 

 sun shone an average of ten hours and 

 forty-eight minutes per day, or 10.4 

 per cent more than normal for the 

 month. 



The order for the material for the 

 three new Beauty houses .'i4x.375 to be 

 built at Maywood, by the Weiss & 

 Meyer Co., has been placed with the A. 

 Dietsch Co. 



The Chicago Florists' Club will meet 

 tonight, June 4, at the La Salle hotel. 

 In sending out notices Secretary .T. B. 

 Foley enclosed tickets to the peony 

 show to be held at the Art Institute 

 June 9 and 10. 



Johnson & Chronis, 4701 Lake Park 

 avenue, are making a specialty of win- 

 dow l)ox trade. 



In spite of a none too good Memorial 

 day, H. N. Bruns is confident .lune will 

 turn out the best month he ever has 

 had. He has added materially to his 

 retail trade since opening the new store 

 and in the wholesale market, through 

 commission houses, he expects to sell 

 more cut valley than in any previous 

 month of the many years he has spe- 

 cialized on forcing that article. 



Mrs. Florence Moore Myers, 1377 

 East Fifty-fifth street, has returned 

 from a two weeks' visit in the east.

 the market by May 28 would better 

 save the money that it costs to pick 

 and pack the crop. 



Eisner & Redden recently removed 

 from 5449 South Halsted street to 5503 

 on the same thoroughfare. 



After spending the month of May at 

 Wilmette, assisting in the spring rush 

 of Pyfer & Olsem, H. E. Philpott re- 

 turned to Winnipeg June 1. 



"The profits of the Memorial day 

 business were lost in the stock that 

 could not be sold," according to E. E. 

 Pieser. 



A new cash register has been pur- 

 chased by C. W. Potuznik, 3706 West 

 Twenty-sixth street. He intends to re- 

 model the store this summer.

 P. Degnan. 



Funeral work recently has been 

 heavy with C. Bachler, the McKinley 

 Park Florist, 3601 Archer avenue. 



According to C. A. Alles, last week 's 

 sales make the best totals Wietor Bros, 

 ever have known in May, in spite of 

 low prices.

 year, says W. A. Peterson, who adds
