John Mangel has his store in splen- did shape now and his stock is in first rate condition. Since the reno- vations have been completed he has had far more room in the store and the windows are also more easily ar- ranged. He has usually some good made-up work on show and we noted a fine cross of white carnations with the arms of white roses, the whole trimmed with violets and Mexican ivy, a very successful design. His special Thanksgiving window is a purely country scene with a porch overhung with leaves while on the ground around it are some extremely natural looking pheasants and small turkeys. Live rabbits, guinea pigs, pigeons and other denizens of the farm are also to be seen and crow-ds of people are attracted.
