MentlOB The Review when yoa write. 



80 with a sigh that the pleasant sight 

 cannot longer be enjoyed without 

 thought of facts and figures, Mr. Tabor 

 is asked about the observance of St. 

 Valentine's day. He answers with a 

 positiveness most assuring. It ia clear 

 that the grown-ups are not satisfied 

 with picture cards and pretty verses 

 only; they want flowers. Mr. Tabor 

 says that flowers have been used as 

 valentines more than ever; not any one 

 special thing, but in great variety. Each 

 purchaser has his or her sentiment and 

 choice in floral valentines. A heart 

 basket, arrow-pierced, tastefully filled; 

 a plant hamper with bright blooms; a 

 bunch of violets; forget-me-nots; red 

 roses; what you will — each has an idea, 

 and it is better so. The day falling 



on Sunday, Mr." Tabor thinks, slightly 

 marred its general observance; people 

 would have come on that day if they 

 could, but forgot to come before, and 

 so let it pass. Even so, the day and its 

 observance finds favor year by year in 

 the hearts of the people. 



Various Notes. 



Charles F. Edgar last week opened a 

 retail flower store at 5037 Baltimore 

 avenue. West Philadelphia. Mr. Edgar 

 is well known in wholesale and retail 

 flower circles. He has had excellent 

 training in all the details of the busi- 

 ness and is extremely capable. 



Stuart H. Miller March 1 will open a 

 whplesale commission house for -the sale 

 of cut flowers at 1617 Eanstead street. 



Mr. Miller has been for over a dozen 

 years with Edward Eeid and is Mr. 

 Eeid's right-hand man. He is thor 

 oughly conversant with every detail o 

 the commission business. His friend 

 are confident that he will build up a 

 successful business that will be a credi/ 

 alike to himself and to the city. 



The second social gathering of th« 

 year was held at the Florists' Club on 

 the evening of February 15, when many 

 members, undismayed by storm, gath- 

 ered to enjoy the games. 



Paul Berkowitz returned from down 

 east February 6 and left on another 

 brief trip, from which he has just re- 

 turned in the best of health and spirits. 



John Kuhn, of Olney, has skillfully 

 flowered his Acacia pubescens, Graham
