The Florists' Review 



61 



When you are down in the mouth, remember Jonah 



HE CAME OUT ALL RIGHT- YOU WILL, TOO 



■TUST keep oa working— plug away like a good 

 BJ fellow, and you will come out all right. And 

 be sure and LA.UGH as much as you can. 

 Laughter is the best dope for glum-gloomers. Doc 

 Crane says a good laugh is equal to a dose of salts, 

 two cocktails, a bromo-seltzer and a spoonful of 

 quinine. It is the best defense against the world's 

 burdens. Besides, we are not at war— we are 

 merely a little befuddled because the Europeans 

 are scrapping. Old England's gone dry, and our 

 bankers, who have been sucking her tits for the 



last century, are up against it. They will soon be 

 weaned, however, and then our floances will be in 

 order. So before long we ought to be going full 

 blast to help support the scrapping element abroad. 

 Are you prepared for the prosperous times to come? 

 Have you enough stock planted? Better get some 

 more lilies— Formosum planted now will flower all 

 winter long. We have some fine bulbs, too, and 

 prices are lower than early in the year, due to an 

 oversupply. You can have them immediately or 

 later. NOW is the time to buy.
