PBOVIDENCE. 



The Market. 



There was a good trade last week 

 along all lines, both cut flowers and 

 bedding stock being in good demand. 

 Funeral work continues brisk, while 

 evening decorations also help to keep 

 things moving. Several dance recep- 

 tions last week, with the closing of the 

 season of the stock companies, helped 

 materially in the grand total. Local 

 florists report the biggest sale of flow- 

 ers for Mothers' day that they ever 

 had for a similar observance, the sales 

 amounting in several instances to four 

 and five times* as much as those of a 

 year ago. White carnations predom- 

 inated, but when these were exhausted 

 others were made use of. An evidenQe 

 of the growing popularity of Mothers' 

 day was to be seen in the number of 

 special services held at the local 

 churches.
