Sample Sprinkler 



85c postpaid 



$10.00 per dozen by express 



We -want every Retailer to send for a 

 sample, as we are confident this will prove 

 to be the article the trade long has been 

 looking for —a thoroughly satisfactory 

 sprinkler. We guarantee it absolutely. 



Best Para rubber— not old rubber; no 

 glaze; just the pure, live rubber, full of life 

 and spring. Seamless— it won't crack or 

 split like the inferior sprinklers the trade 

 has used heretofore. 



The vitrified rubber nose throws a much 

 more effective spray than any of the older 

 sprinklers— a very fine mist-like, widely 

 diffused spray. Sprinkler refills itself 

 Auickly. Try one. Mail us 85c in stamps 

 if you have no account with us. 



Improved ''Beauty Brand'' Tissue 



Recently we have had splendid evidence of the 

 quality and adaptability of this Tissue to the needs 

 of the trade -the mill for the time being not being 

 able to keep us supplied, we were forced to handle 

 a few hundred bundles of the Tissue we consider 

 next best to our Improved Beauty Brand — but the 

 buyers objected to taking the next best; 

 those who knew the excellences of the Improved 

 Beauty Brand Tissue would be content with noth- 

 ing less. 



The Improved Beauty Brand is a white, highly 

 glazed, 24x3(5, 12-lb. weight; strong even when wet. 

 It has been widely imitat :d, but the imitators or- 

 dinarily find that to approach the quality they must 

 charge $8.00 to $9.00 per bundle.

ROSES AND CARNATIONS ^bUs 

 FOR MOTHERS' DAY

they shall do for Mothers' day. It is 

 the consensus of opinion that there 

 will be no possibility of filling all or- 

 ders for carnations, while other flowers 

 are expected to be plentiful. They all 

 deplore a situation that promises to 

 force carnations to a high price, be- 

 lieving that it will be harmful to the 

 future of this rapidly developing 

 "day." They hope to see the trade 

 push the flowers that are in big supply. 

 Ordinarily carnations are abundant at 

 this date. 



Moninger Increases Capital Stock. 



Certifying to the secretary of state 



at Springfield that its capital stock has 

 been increased from $25,000 to $100,- 

 000, the John C. Moninger Co. is mak- 

 ing a number of changes in its or- 

 ganization, made desirable by the ex- 

 pansion of the business and the wish 

 to admit some of its young men to a 

 share in it. The concern was estab- 

 lished in 1869 by the late John C. Mon- 

 inger, who early drew to his support 

 as young men those who now are pass- 

 ing a part of the responsibilities to 

 their sons and associates. Incorpora- 

 tion took place in 1894. A consider- 

 able surplus has since been accumu- 

 lated, a part of which now is being 



capitalized and a portion of the new- 

 stock placed at the disposal of P. L. 

 McKee and the sons of Messrs. Ku- 

 rowski and Rupp. The roster of officers, 

 now stands: 



President — E. F. Kurowski. 



First vice-president — R. E. Kurowski. 



Second vice-president and general, 

 manager — Philip L. McKee. 



Treasurer — N. J. Rupp. 



Secretary — W. M. Rupp. 



The public boiler test conducted for 

 four days last week proved an excel- 

 lent advertisement for the Moninger 

 Co. There was a good attendance of 

 florists and others, including a nnmber
