ments, originated and photographed by 

 Charles Henry Fox. These beautiful 

 floral combinations have attracted so 

 much attention when reproduced in The 

 Review that today Mr. Fox has a larger 

 following of friends and admirers than 

 any other florist on the eastern seaboard. 

 When the corner property was sold to the 

 Ritz-Carlton hotel, Mr. Fox sold the old 

 Sign of the Rpse and just before Easter, 

 if you will please remember, removed 

 seven doors south on Broad street. It 

 was not generally known that this new 

 location, so like the first Sign of the Rose 

 in many of its chief attractions, was 

 only temporary. This week, however, 

 Mr. Fox has made public his plans. 



The home of the new Sign of the Rose 

 will be in an old Philadelphia mansion 

 at 211 South Broad street. Its advan- 

 tages are many. First, it joins the new 

 RUz-Carlton hotel. The front will be 

 finished in the same style as the Ritz- 

 Carlton and there will be a communicat- 

 ing door. Next, the position at Broad 

 and "Walnut streets is ideal, from the 

 standpoint of the F. F. P. Then the 

 space, light and convenience of approach 

 for supplies are unusually good. 



The new Sign of the Rose will have a 

 floor space of 25x130 feet. The present 

 flight of steps leading up to 211 South 

 Broad street will be removed and the floor 

 lowered to the street level. A show- 

 window fourteen feet in width will afforti 

 a splendid opportunity for display. Be- 

 hind the flower shop proper^ will be a 

 designing room, with light from a glass 

 roof above. Back of this will be an- 

 other designing room, separated from 

 the first, where heavier work can be done. 

 In the rear of these designing rooms 

 will be the buying room, with splendid
