For Doggie

Farther along is dog shop. No
dogs are for sale, but merely the lat
est fashions in puppy accessories.
Wealthy dogs must have just the right
things, you know, and here is the
place to get them. There are jeweled
muzzles, fancy leather leashes, collars
that might grace dowager and fine
warm blankets. And dogs, too, must
be amused. So there are dog dolls
rubber hounds which may be played
with and chewed. And there's jack
in-the-box out Of which pops a dogs
head. Won't Suzette be surprised.

Orchids

There are several flower stores, and
all feature orchids. New models of
orchids come out oftener than next
years super-siXteen automobiles. This
year the debutantes have chosen green
orchids. And so the green orchids are
the most expensive. Or perhaps it is
the other way around. The debbies
may have picked the flowers because
of price. In one shop some green or
chids are exhibited under glass
dome, just like the old artificial flower
and hair exhibits in the stuffy parlors
Of yesteryear. Even on Fifty-seventh
street, however, are to be found cut
rate flowers. In one shop beautiful
orchid may be bought for $1.50.
