CHICAGO'S GREAT NAIL 



"our LEADER" BRAND FLORISTS' RIBBONS 



We want everyone to visit Chicago this summer to inspect our ribbon depart- 

 ment. Few florists appreciate the quantity of stock we carry. It is, we believe, the 

 largest etock of libbons in any supply house in America, a larger stock than is car- 

 ried by many exclusive ribbon jobbers, and every ribbon in our stock is spe- 

 cially manufactured to meet some need of the retail florist. No dry goods store 

 ribbons here. 



While our etock of ribbons and chiff"on8 contains a number of lines, we spe- 

 cially want to call the attention of the trade to ' ' Our Leader ' ' brand [?atin 

 taff"eta ribbon. This is an ideal florists' ribbon. The quality is good enough for 

 every purpose, and at the price it offers the beet value we ever have seen. For that 

 reason it is eteaddy increasing in popularity. Many leading florists now use it exclu- 

 sively. While the sale already is large, we believe it will be very much larger as 

 more florists compare the quality and prices with the lines they have been using. 

 This ribbon is noted for its rich, vivid colors, elegant texture and unsurpassed luster. 

 Special attention is i-alled to the two-toned Killarney, valley, orchid and American 

 Beauty patterns. Look over your stock and order " Our Leader" brand in the num- 

 bers you are running short on. If quality and price do not please you thoroughly, 

 the purchase may be returned at our expense.

Moss has been so scarce the last few months that the cars we already have received from the Wisconsin woods have bef n cH 

 immediately upon arrival. We have other cars on the way, but delivery is a Uttle uncertain because of the strike of the freight t 

 There will, however, be no more than a few days' delay and one car will follow another in rapid succession. We want it um' 

 that we are headquarters for Sphagrnum. The best quality and exceedingly large supply. We quote for delivery from the ni
