THE FLORISTS' SUPPLY HOUSE OF AMERICA 



THOSE END-Or-JUNE ORDERS 



There are some big affairs coming off during the last two weeks in June; one or two commence- 

 ments, some weddings, parties and what-not, which will take a lot of supplies. We want you to be 

 up-to-date and have the very best of everything for your customers. 



FANCY COMMENCEMENT BASKETS with long handles, as well ae plain ones. 



WEDDING OUTFITS, comprising the whole thing, saving you a lot of work and giving tone to your decorations. 



IMPERIAL CHINAWARE, so pleasing on the luncheon table. 



LONG-STEMMED BEAUTY VASES, you can use them for peonies, nothing so decorative as Beauties and 

 peonies nowadays. 



CHIFFONS, you must not forget, when making up your order. 



If by any chance you may think there is something more and don't know what it is, send for Our Silent Salesman. 



WE CLOSE AT NOON ON SATURDAYS DURING JUNE, JULY AND AUGUST.
