Smart Outfits and Stylish Basliets 



Style attracts on these occasions. A lace bouquet-holder that is pretty, a basket 

 with form and finish, are the things that count in winning and holding business, in 

 these days of lively competition. Nice stock is not expensive ; when the results are 

 considered, it is cheap. So let us know what you want and we will please you. 

 Remember, we have everything in Florists' Supplies, or, in the case of something 

 special, we can make it.
