The Weekly Flonsts' Review^

■•'Prepare for Thanksgiving S Bolidays.'*8 



Always the best is my ernleavor, 



Godfrey Aschniann must not be beat: 



Mere and in Kurope, all know that I never 



Will buy the poor trash they sell on tlio street. 



I ve just had a lot sent over the ocean. 



The finest azaleas that ever were grown. 



.My ferns and my palms, 1 have a strong notion 



That all florists who sec will make san-e their 

 own. 

 While the lair araucaria cannot fail to delinht. 

 TlianksKiving and Christmas will see them 

 just ritiht; 

 .So come, get together and make up the buyer. 

 If you (lone bo()>t the xuirld. it will never 

 rise higher. 



We lead the country in Araurarlas. Have 

 heen in the lea<l in the past: ha\c it now and shall 

 lead in the future. 



We have houses full of choice Kxcelsa robasta 

 compaoa and Ex<-elsaKlaura; enough to sup 

 ply the entire country. 



Will you pay .50 per cent to 100 per cent more 

 liy buying from others who are not specialists.' 

 Ifope not: the wise are on guard. We are going 

 to sell all of them and without drummers. By 

 jingo, we must sell them; an elephant for 40c. 

 •')0c and tiOc: a jambn lor 75c to $l.iX): and a holy 

 terror in size for Sl.'J.'i tr) $l.M. 



Room! Room!! 



We must have room for our great importation 

 of a/.aleas, palms etc. Kverything has to go at 

 crackerjaek prices. Wc are all seeking for great 

 shows. It is nature. The greatest show on 

 earth. The Founders' Week of Philadelphia, 

 which has .just closed with such brilliancy that 

 whoever witnessed this unique aitair uill begin 

 life with more strength, more courage and more 

 confidence in the great American Hag, which u as 

 so conspicuous in the great street parade of Fri- 

 day, October '.i. This Hag shall be my (lag. in 

 which I trust my luisiness and welfare now ami 

 forever more 



Now is the time for floral exhibitiu- s. 



Come and look at the show which we are now 

 displaynig at our greenhouses, in the rear of 

 1012 West Ontario Street and Thayer Street. A
