velt saw the animal the next day
and after talk with her son it was
agreed that the Executive Mansion
was not the proper home for a pig.
Quentin sold it to Mr. Schmid for
$1.25-25c cents more than he had
paid. He argued it was worth
something for the delivery. But
Mr.. Schmid laughingly came to
terms and he put the animal in the
shop window with a placard: This
pig slept in the White House last
night-price $780," There was a
quick sale.
Because of his friendship with
Quentin and their other sons,
President and Mrs. Roosevelt gave
him walking stick.

Mrs. Grace Coolidge annually
sent him letter of congratulation
on his birthday anniversary, and he
had other mementoes, such as auto
graphed photographs, of his friend
ship with White House families.
But of all his mementoes, he held
in highest esteem a simple letter
from a blind and deaf woman who
came to his store nearly 40 years
ago. Into her hands, so that she
might "see" them, Mr.. Schmid
placed birds, a baby alligator, a
snake and other animals. Many
years later he received a letter from
the woman in which she expressed
her gratitude for his kindness and
courtesy. The woman was Helen
Keller.

Edward 5. Schmid, , 81,
PET Store Owner,
Dies in Hospital
Customers Included
Presidents and Other
NotobIes

Edward S. Schmid, 81, whose pet
emporium was outranked only by
the Zoo as Washington's animal
kingdom, died early yesterday of
heart trouble at Garfield Hospital.
Stricken as he was rounding out
a vacation in st. Petersburg, Fla,
Mr.. Schmid was brought back Sat-
urday by his son, Edward F. Schmid,
and was taken to the hospital.
His death marked the end Of a
half century in business which
drew the families of Presidents and
others high in the Capitals official
and social world as customers.
And Mr.. Schmid's pet store-a
miniature ZOO at 712 Twelfth street
N.W.-was not limited to local trade
either. In fact, it attracted buyers
from every walk of life, from every
State in the Union and every corner
of the globe.
Studio Horticulture.
Born at Hastings on Hudson,
N. Y, in 1856, Mr.. Schmid was
brought to Washington at the age
of 2, and when only IL went to
Leesburg, Va, to study Horticulture.
At that time he wanted to become
a florist and his studies were en-
couraged and made possible by John
Hitz, former Minister to Switzerland,
who had met the boy and taken a
liking to him.
Before finishing his Horticulture
course, however, the youth returned
home to go to work and help sup
port his family-his fathers health
having failed. For while he made
wire frames on which florists built
designs and as hobby he studied
taxidermy.
And it was while he was engaged
in this study that an odd incident
launched him into the pet busi-
ness. A friend caught wild canary
and brought it to Edward, telling
him that he could kill it and mount
it. Instead, the boy put it in a
makeshift cage.
Canaries Sell Readily.
For many years the bird was the
pet of his father And when 1t
died Edward determined to get
another canary as a birthday pres
ent for the elder Schmid.
He visited several bird stores and
found the dealers rather gruff and
apparently knowing little about
their pets. This experience con-
vinced him there was a real need
for store of this type directed by
some one with a knowledge of his
wares and honesty and courtesy, in
dealing with customers.
So he made cages, bought some
canaries and began to breed them
They sold readily and it was from
this small beginning that Mr..
Schmid started his emporium.
He finally opened a pet shop at
Twelfth street and Pennsylvania
avenue NV, the site of the pres
ent new post Office building. Then
he moved up Twelfth street to 7l2
where he operated for about SO
years. And it was there above bis
shop that he lived, too. for he loved
his pets, and liked to be near them.
His name became synonymous
with pets. Whenever anybody wanted
a pup, a kitten, canary, a goldfish
or practically anything in that line
Schmid's was the place to get It,
Quentin Roosevelt, son of Presi-
dent Theodore Roosevelt, was one
of the most constant visitors to
Schmidt's. He used to borrow ami.
mails to keep at the White House
until he tired of them. One day he
bought pig he saw on a trip in Vir-
ginia and took it home. Mrs. Roose-
