room, and the extension of the oflBoe 

 along the south wall, it is like going 

 into a strange place to enter the estab- 

 lishment of Kennicott Bros. Co., but 

 for the same old friendly atmosphere. 

 H. B. Kennicott says his concern is not 

 responsible for and has absolutely no 

 connection with a sign above the en- 

 trance to the effect that "we sell re- 

 tail." The sign belongs to the store 

 upstairs and steps will be taken to 

 have it removed. 



A heavy run of funeral work during 

 the last week has kept A. T. Bichel, 

 the Irving Park Florist, 4228 North 

 Crawford avenue, more than busy. 



A few splendid blooms of the tw« 

 new roses. Champ Weiland and Mrs. 

 Moorfield Storey, are on exhibition in 

 the salesroom of Weiland & Risch. 

 These new varieties belong to the class 

 of roses characterized by John Risch 

 as distinctive. 



Preparations to ship one of their hot 

 water boilers to Edinburgh, Scotland, 

 is creating considerable interest at the 

 plant of Kroeschell Bros. Co. 



The Schiller family is planning to re- 

 turn tp Chicago about September 15, 

 after spending the summer at Paw Paw 

 lake, Mich. 



The first lot of French bulbs for this 

 season was planted last week by George 



"HALTI"- 



cried the old man, as he looked up 

 from the war news. 



"Yes, sir." answered the buyer, 

 with due military alacrity. 



"Now is the time to order your 

 Chiffons, Ribbons and all other sup- 

 plies." 



" Why should I ? " argued the buyer 

 —buyers always dislike being told 

 when or how they should do aaything, 

 even though it be for their own good. 

 '. "Because," said the old man, sagely, 

 "all of the florists' supplies are either 

 imported or would be affected by a 

 shut-off on imported goods. In either 

 case the prices are apt to be forced up 

 any time." So saying, the old man 

 started back to his sanctum. 



" I say, young man, you'd better try 



Eennicott's Quality Cuts before you 

 place the season's order anywhere 

 else. They have installed a new 

 Chiffon and Ribbon department. If 

 they're as satisfactory in those sup- 

 plies as they are in Wire Designs (and 

 they are) that is the house to place 

 your season's order with." 



"All right, sir," said the buyer (but, 

 as buyers are apt to do, he was about 

 to put the matter off)— 



" My boy, make out that trial order 

 now, and send it, before you forget, to 

 Kennicott Bros. Co., 163 N. Wabash 

 Avenue— that's the address. Yes, of 

 course, Chicago." 



The old man seldom makes mis- 

 takes. The same contract prices and 

 satisfying values will be given to you.
