similar swindles. Hamilton, the police 

 say, has confessed. 



At the store of the George Wittbold 

 Co., on Clark street, the same man repre- 

 sented himself as Dr. Alven Nelson. He 

 ordered $5 worth of flowers, presented 

 a check for $20 and asked for change. 

 Victor Young, the manager, was sus- 

 picious and sent the check to Louis 

 Wittbold, who promptly started an in- 

 vestigation, but the man had fled. 



New Motor Delivery. 



A new, heavy truck soon will be ply- 

 ing between Wilmette and Chicago, 

 carrying the name and stock of Ernest 

 Rober, who expects the investment will 

 reduce expenses and add to the facility 

 with which he handles his steadily in- 

 creasing business. 



A new auto delivery car has been 

 purchased by Frank J. Krai, 1907 South 

 Halsted street. 



In the near future a new automobile 

 will assist Miss F. Weissgerber, 3451 

 North Hamilton avenue, in making de- 

 liveries. 



The Bohannon Floral Co., on Monroe 

 street, finds its new auto a great help. 

 The machine has been run just long 

 enough to prove its indispensability.

 Grand boulevard is being made by Char- 

 lotte Megchelsen, 4654 Grand boulevard, 

 who will move from her present location 

 to the new quarters in the near future. 

 Several florists have had their eyes on 

 this corner. Miss Megchelsen has been 

 for many years at her present address 

 and has done a steady and prosperous 

 business which should respond promptly 

 to the stimulus of a better location, a 

 larger store, new fixtures and a larger 

 stock. 



Elmer Sigwalt, Arlington Heights, a 

 member of the Chicago Flower Growers' 

 Association, is now the father of a fine 

 baby boy.
