How Muoh Longer Will You Sloop? 

 How Much Longor Will You Worry? 



Worry makes gray hair. Don't get old when you can prevent it. Don't 

 let the war worry you. Wake up! Go right ahead into bneineBS. Look out 

 foK. yourself, for nobody will give you anything if you have nothing. 

 ■^^^ Look here: — I will help you and give you a dhance, but for one week 

 ^^^ only, at prices seldom offered. We need the room for our great im- 

 portation of Azalea Indica, and have decided to make a big reduction on the 

 following plants: 



A 7- rich $1.00 Boston Fern we shall reduce to only 50c. A 



A 6-inch 75c Boston Fern we shall reduce to. only 40c. A 



A 6-inch 50c Boston Fern we shall reduce to only 35c. A 



A 51 -Inch 40c Boston Fern we shall reduce to only 30c. A

HONOR TO WHOM HONOR 18 DUE. 



Godfrey Aschmann, the Philadelphia 

 plantsman, at the age of 60, is as active 

 as ever (a visit to his establishment will 

 convince you). He is a native of Switzer- 

 land, of the right thinking, active, fiery 

 type, and, like the Deutsche Kaiser, full 

 of courage and ambition. He is not afraiil 

 of the combined armies of the so-called 

 florists, and he is sure he will carry the 

 field when other florists are down-hearted 

 and holding bauk on account of hard times 

 and afraid to invest a dollar. Godfrey 

 Aschmann has his eyes open — he watches 

 and looks into the future — buys up all the 

 good stock he can get, fills his houses with 

 the choicest and is prepared when the 

 rush comes.
