RIBBONS 



We have the largest stock of Ribbons of 

 any house in the west. 



These Ribbons were bought before the recent market 

 advance, and besides having the advantage of buying before 

 the increase in price, we have bought in what are known as 

 "loom orders.' This necessitates the use of a large sum of 

 money, but it means a bi^ ■avinf; in price over buying in 

 small lots and enables us to compete with any Ribbon 

 House in the United States. 



We have a Special Bolly Ribbon that is going like Hot 

 Cakes. Better get your order in now, so as to be sure of get- 

 ting what you need for your December business. Send for a 

 sample and prices. 



An importation of Choice Chiffons just arrived. Send 

 for samples and prices. 



If you haven't our citilti. send a pestal today : you need it ; it will save you moaey.

Winand 's wholesale store, is a new ad- 

 dition to the staff of Vaughan & Sperry. 



George Reinberg keeps right on add- 

 ing to- the variety of stock to be grown. 

 For the next season sweet peas are to be 

 a winter crop. 



A stranger visited Schofield, at 184 

 North State street, the other day and or- 

 dered $600 worth of funeral work, stating 

 that the money had been nearly all col- 

 lected at the offices of the Illinois Central 

 railroad following the death of an ofiQcial. 

 He suddenly reeollected that he was to 

 call at a hospital just at that hour to 

 see his wife, who was ill, and Schofield 

 gave him a -sice bunch of roses. Calling 



at the I. C. offices for further details, it 

 was found the whole thing was a fake. 

 One thought to be the same party has 

 worked the same scheme on other retail- 

 ers, apparently with no other object than 

 to secure a dollar's worth of flowers for 

 nothing. 



Joseph Smely was in from Aurora one 

 day this week and reports business good. 



One of the leading growers states that 

 it is his opinion that O. J. Friedman 

 buys more American Beauties, month 

 after month, than any other retailer in 

 Chicago. 



A. C. Schaefer, who is Ed Winterson 's 

 brother-in-law and partner in Winter- 



son's Seed Store, is taking life a little 

 easier now that the bookkeeper, who 

 was Miss Amanda Davidson, is again on 

 duty. August 15 she became Mrs. C. V. 

 Nelson. 



L. Coatsworth returned Sunday after 

 a week spent at the Benthey-Coatsworth 

 plant at New Castle. He says the Beau- 

 ties are coming along finely and that 

 Killamey is giving a big cut, though 

 still not long in stem. 



A. S. Halstead, of Belleville, 111., was 

 a visitor this week. 



Among the week's visitors were Wil- 

 liam Henry Evans, of Colorado Springs, 

 returning from an eastern trip, and S.
