Pappas, at Broad Street Station, is now 

 first lieutenant for his brother, Charles 

 P. Poryzees, at Fifteenth and. Chestnut 

 streets. The immediate effect of this 

 fraternal combination is that Charles 

 P., head of the com]>any, is planning a 

 trip to Europe this summer. 



Samuel G. Harris was the successful 

 bidder for the four flower stands at the 

 ^'ntrances to the city hall. The s\ze of 

 the bids was a surprise to the city 

 fathers of the reform administration; 

 their predecessors in the machine had 

 always given away the privilege as 

 spoils to the faithful. 



Warren S. Engard has an attractive 

 store at Mount Airy. It contains a 

 home-made ice-box that is particularly 



satisfactory in its keeping qualities and 

 in the economy of ice. 



A floral expert of national reputa- 

 tion who wishes to remain incognito 

 has issued a collection of seventy-seven 

 photographs of funeral designs, basket 

 arrangements and bouquets. It is an 

 unusual collection. The fine character 

 of the work and the handsome photo- 

 graphs are enhanced by hand painting. 

 Each photograph is delicately colored, 

 adding beauty and reality to the effect, 

 the dark mats adding charm. The 

 Story of the publishing of these photo- 

 graphs is interesting. Arthur Zirkman 

 saw an order received in one of the 

 leading flower shops in this country and 

 after th^ customer had gone he exam- 

 ined the photograph book from which the 

 design had been chosen. Mr. Zirkman 



was so much struck with these designs 

 that he advised the artist to publish 

 them, promising his aid. This was 

 finally given, the artist explaining that 

 his wife did all the hand painting. 

 Mr. Zirkman 's idea is to issue as many 

 or as few of these photograi)hs as each 

 person may desire; he believes that 

 those who want them would not use 

 any of the ordinary design books, as 

 his firm, M. Rice & Co., can make 

 each book virtually an original copy. 



The death of W. P. Peacock, father 

 of Lawrence K. Peacock, of Atco, N. .1., 

 which occurred last week, was followed 

 in two days by that of Mrs. Peacock, 

 so that the funeral was postponed in 

 order that both might take place to- 

 gether. L. K. Peacock _ has the sym-
