Proprietor, gazing at a whole lot of plants waiting to be trimmad— "Come ! Come ! Qet these 



plants out quickly." 

 Delivery Man— "They are all marked to be trimmad." Delivery Man loudly to plant trimmar— 



"Say, when are you going to get these plants trimmed?" 

 Plant Trimmer— "How many hands do you think I have? Send some one to help me." 

 Proprietor— "I can't spare any one off the floor. The atara is full of CHStemara." 

 Plant Trimmer— "Now, if you had t>ought some of those 



EVER-READY FLOWER POT COVERS 



I wauld be able to trim them as fast as you could bring them to me, and do it easily, besides saving a whole lot of ribbon, paper, time, etc." 

 Help your Easter plants to sell themselyee. The cost is so slight you can afford to give away the Ev«r-R«ady pot 

 covers. So simple the customers can trim their own plants. They are collapsible, thus requiring little storage space.

 view of the rumors of a coming coal

Sam Seligman, of Wertheimer Bros., 

 paid a flying visit to the east last 

 week, leaving and arriving back at 

 Chicago in three days' time. During 

 that short period he found chance to 

 make New York and Philadelphia. 



The store of Kennicott Bros. Co. is 

 spick and span for Easter, having last 

 week received several coats of light 

 green paint. Every other store in 

 the market wears white. 



A. Lange finds it necessary to keep 

 his store open until 9 p. m., and to 

 10 p. ra. Saturdays. The new second 

 floor workroom adds greatly to his 

 facilities. 



The A. L. Bandall Co. is fitting up 

 a new stockroom for ribbons and will 

 remove the department from the sec- 

 ond to the third floor, where more 

 space and better light will be had. 

 One loom order now on the road from 

 the mill amounts to $11,000, but is 

 practically all sold. 



The latest addition to the Fleischman 

 equipment is a camera and appurte- 

 nances. George Wienhoeber is learning 

 to use it. The plan is to work up an 

 album of photographs of their own de- 

 signs. 



Henry Wittbold has his display rooms 

 at 56 East Randolph street open to the 

 trade and has movjd in a large quantity 

 of stock. The di^lay rooms included a 

 model house of three rooms, aside from 

 the main display. The rooms give an 

 idea of the finished interior and exterior 

 decoration as well as landscape work. 

 All told, it is unique. 



N. J. Wietor says he estimates the 

 increased cost of fuel this long, cold 

 winter as twenty-five per cent over last 

 season. Wietor Bros, never worry over 

 coal. They burn the C. C. B. Pocahon- 

 tas, always start the season with full 

 sheds and never let them run low. 



After a rest of more than a week 

 at a Milwaukee saiiitarium, John Zech, 

 of Zech & Mann, has returned to Chi- 

 cago and again is grappling with busi- 

 ness duties. 



Emil Danz is a candidate f or_ demo-
