You Want These Novelties 



One of our best novelties for the coming season is our 

 electrically prepared fern leaves. These ferns are perfect 

 specimens of all the popular varieties for cutting, chiefly 

 Adiantum and Pteris. Every frond has been submitted 

 to an electrical process, making it wonderfully dur- 

 able, so that our fern fronds will not wither for a long time. 

 Try a few sample boxes and place the fronds in baskets or 

 jardinieres where your customers will see them. 



CHINA SHOES of every conceivable style and color are making 

 a hit now. You can get them low or high, black, or white, or 

 russet, even the daintiest pumps. All are admirably adapted 

 for table use or for favors. 



FANCY AND STAPLE BASKETS are always of use to 

 you. The old styles are better made than ever, while there are 

 many new creations well worthy a trial. 



CYCAS LEAVES — We are the largest dealers in cycas leaves 

 in the country. Our leaves are famous for size and finish. 



Our catalogue is yours for the aslfing .
