North Clark street. Mr. Clody owns 

 the property and is arranging to re- 

 move the old buildings. He says he 

 has not sufficient room properly to han- 

 dle his stock. 



There is rejoicing at Maywood — a 

 daughter has arrived at the home of 

 Otto Amling, son of Albert F. Amling. 

 The little lady has four uncles but is 

 the first girl in the family. 



M. F. Weinstein and George Prentice, 

 who are doing business at 1333 East 

 Fifty-seventh street as the College Flo- 

 ral Shop, have been in the business 

 less than two months. While they have 

 a small stand and are new in the trade, 

 they >re doing as well as could reason- 

 ably be expected and are already get- 

 ting some good orders from the uni- 

 versity people. 



D. P. Eoy, with A. Henderson & Co., 

 went to Holland, Mich., February 13, 

 for a three days' business trip. 



Fred Quasthoff, 812 East Forty-sixth 

 street, is careful to whom he gives 

 credit these days. A short time ago a 

 prosperous appearing man of middle age 

 walked into his place, bought some 

 flowers and, finding he had no change, 

 handed Mr. Quasthoff a card and sugr 

 gested that the purchase might as well 

 be charged, as he wished to open an 

 account anyhow. The name and the 

 address were both familiar to Mr. 

 Qii»8thoff, so he did not hesitate. The 

 man dropped in on several occasions 

 and bought flowers. When Mr. Quast- 

 hoff at length sent his bill by mail, 

 in reply he received a letter request- 

 ing him to call and explain, whereupon 

 he found that the householder and the 

 purchaser were different men. The 

 swindler simply had used another 

 man's card. 



John Welsh, 4703 NoHh Eobey street, 

 who has been confined ^to his home for 

 two weeks with rheumatism, la improv- 

 ing and hopes to be able to attend to 

 business in a few days. 



The rose is usually the emblem of 

 the florists' trade used in electric light 

 signs, but that in front of H. N. Bruns ' 

 store, at 3040 Madison street, has the 

 form and colors of a calla lily. 



Thomas Cahill, with Harry C. Eowe, 

 160 North Wabash avenue, has been 

 suffering the last few days with an 

 attack of the grip.
