THAT FLOWER SHOW.
Largo Number of Persons Visited
the Boies' Conservatories.
Tho flower show at tho conserva
tories of Colonel nnd Mrs. II. M. Holes
yesterday was a great success asthet- j
lcally, financially nnd every other way. j
There were many visitors and Mr. '
Clark, the gardner, who lias rroduced
such marvelous results in the man
agement of tho conservatories waa
near ut hand to satisfy the curiosity
of any who wished to know nbout tho
multitude of beautiful and often
strange plants to be seen on every
side. .
There are prlvnte hot houses which
ocupy a larger area than those at
"llrcezymount," but few can be found
which contain more rare floral speci
mens or those which have been more
dlfllcult to procure.
There was one orchid which atract
il much attention yesterday. It was
th strange mottled xreenlsh variety
recently named "Tho fiauy," bemuse
of a most pfcuHar formation In tho
centre of the flower which Is n precise

One virltor who was intently exanr
lnlng the que.T little blossom, sudden
ly temaikrd: "V.'hy It Is a yellow kid!"
Mrs. Holes promptly labeled the orchid
"The Yellow Kid." add'ng the phrase
"Find It," A task which the guests
found rnall dliPcnlty In doing.
It may Interest thoe who marvelled
at the mighty leaves of the banam.
tree to know that this hure growth
which reaches to the apex of the build

is cut down every year after tho ftult
has tlpened, and that the bananas
raised In ColonM Roles conservatories
are of superfine flavor. (

Although this is a bustling, active, swiftly-moving biniuesa, we make our selec
tions with care. The best evidence of how much care is the garments them
selves. Note with as much deliberation as you wish, hoar even the smallest de
tails aie properly doue the making of button holes, the stitching of seani3, tho
turn of a collar, the sewing on of buttons. These are little things, but they have
h -lped to make our garments what they are. No matter what price we ask, you
get the best possible for the price.
Women's Suits
Most stores want you to know that they manufacture their own Cloaks and Suits.
We want you to know that we do not. The secret of ourjjsuccess has been large
ly in our freedom to choose each kind of a garment from the very best maker of
that particu'ar garment. For instance: We recently advertised a certain garment
iu three grades. Each of these grades was made by a different house, and
each kiud was much better than it could have b:en if any one house had made
them all. It's the close competition of all the best houses for your trade that
keeps the standard at our store so remarkably high.
We arc not novices in the fur business. Our experience iu furs dates back many
years. Our styles for this season are extremely handsqme and were selected with
great care. Fur J ickets are shorter aud jauntier in styles. Tne favorite shaoes
are cut from a Riviltiou Model short and curved at hips, aud sloping in front.
In Fur Neckwear the styles are very attractive. For Tailor-Made Suits, Neck
Scarfs and Collarettes come in many combinations. Collarettes have high-rolling
collars, warm either up or down.
