of a suit of rough, old clothes and long, 

 leg-wearying rambles in forgotten wood- 

 lands and among desolate sand dunes, 

 looking for flints and other paleolithic 

 specimens. 

 As evidence of the success of the 



giant department of Foehlmann Bros. 

 0., C. G. Anderson offers the informa- 

 tion that this department is to be en- 

 larged to the extent of four more 

 houses. 



Well satisfied with his business at 

 8B6 East Forty-third street, Abraham 

 Iralson is negotiating the purchase of 

 a store on West Sixty-third street, near 

 Ashland avenue. 



Business in his stand at the Forty- 

 third street station of the south side 

 elevated railroad has been so good that 

 Harry Friend, who recently sold his 

 store at 108 East Fifty-first street to 

 Eugene Bowen, is negotiating with the 

 officials of the elevated road for two 

 more stands, one at the Fifty-fifth 

 street station, the other at the Fifty- 

 eighth street station. In addition to 

 these, he has secured the exclusive right 

 to the sale of flowers and the conduct 

 of the flower ball game in the White 

 City for the coming season, which will 

 open May 15. He will have associated 

 with him in this latter venture, Stanley 

 Herold. 



Numerous complaints have been heard 

 from the south side florists of the in- 

 creasing number of boys doing a basket 

 trade on the streets and on the comers 

 of street car intersections. It is al- 

 leged that the boys are sent out by cer- 

 tain florists who, without incurring the 

 burden of high rent, cut into the legiti- 

 mate store business to an alarming ex- 

 tent. 



Bealizing that old friends are usually 

 best, commercially as well as socially, 

 F. C. Mendonza has removed from 6341 

 South Halsted street, where he has been 

 only a few Weeks, to 436 East Forty- 

 third street, only a block from the stand 

 he occupied for several years.

C. L. Washburn is much interested 

 in a red sport of the Mrs. George Shaw- 

 yer rose, which was discovered in the 

 Bassett & Washburn houses the other 

 day. Mr. Washburn says they will 

 propagate it and try it out. 



Darwin tulips have been one of Sam 

 Pearce's specialties of late and they 

 have sold excellently to the better class 

 of retailers, who always are in search 

 of novelty. 



Counter trade has improved mate- 

 rially at Winterson's Seed Store since 

 the street repairs were completed.
