 this weight the present firm has been 

 formed. 



Recent Importations. 



H. Bayersdorfer & Co. have received 

 some novelties of especial interest late- 

 ly. One idea especially adapted for 

 Thanksgiving is the peacock basket. A 

 life size bird of true peacock green is 

 standing on a globe, the basket part 

 being formed of the peacock's body. 

 Similar to this, and a little more Thanks- 



giving in idea, is the noble turkey perch- 

 ed on a pumpkin. A really beautiful 

 set of ferneries and vases is shown in 

 the Vienna ware, best described as a 

 choice china of varied hue. Silk fiber 

 ribbon of rainbow hues is a pleasing 

 novelty. The dwarfs or manikins, sug- 

 gestive of Rip Van Winkle, are especial- 

 ly designed for original window effects. 



Vartoia Notes.

 dinary demand for all varieties of Dutch

The importations of azaleas are un-

 extraordinary value has been given by 

 the Belgian growers, who appear to have 

 an overstock of the larger sizes. 



Israel Rosnosky has returned from a 

 successful business trip in the west. He 

 expects to represent the Henry F. 

 Michell Co. at Chicago this week.
