A girl is sometimes satisfied to carry a little basket of flowers Into the city each day, when she could be shipping out hundreds of dollars’ worth of flowers dally dur- ing the season. One step such a girl may profitably take is the making of an arrangement with the hotel proprietor to provide his tables with flowers at a fixed sum per month, The proprietor may agree to digplay her fresh-cut flowers every morning where people will see and buy them, too, Furnishing flowers for the town cemetery may be another opportunity for her. She may put up flowers for funerals, too. She should solicit this trade herself, pointing out that flow. ers received from the eity are not al ways fresh and attractive, as hers would be, A "birthday book, In which Is listed birthday and other anniversaries of as many women as possible, is a help. The flower girl who keeps a book may call the woman's husband to remind him of the event, and to suggest that he “say It with flowers” Of course, there Is something else to the flower business than simply go- ing to the right places to sell them. One must have a salable product, and that requires In this case, an artistic instinct. Even In business, one can't “say It with flowers” unless she under stands thelr language, which is, after all, an artistic one, Now, caring for a flower garden is essentially a work for which many women are eminently sulted You must be both an artist and a business woman, then, If you are ome WihAres set bitious to succeed as a “flower girl*®
