The Flcffists' Review

How Much Longer Will You Sleep? 

 How Much Longer 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 business. Look out for yourself, for nobody will 

 give you anything if you have nothing. The European war has nothing to do with the florists' 

 business— we don't ship plants to Europe. If business is bad, don't blame the wai", but 

 blame yourself. 



Look here: — I will help you and give you a chance, 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: 



Bench growrr and lifted are no good, they wltl go back on you. 20% reduction Is 

 not Included In this list. 



Our Ferns are all Pot Grown. 



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

 cash with order on everything we have advertised, with the exception of Araucarias. 



AZALEA INDICA. 



OON'T BE DECEIVED. We are the 

 only reliable Importers of Azalea indica. 

 Our 25 year reputation of Importing, sell- 

 ing and shipping should be sufficient 

 proof of our ability. Be up-to-date and 

 go nowhere else for Azaleas but to God- 

 frey Aschmann. 



Our new crop from Belgium Is on the 

 road now, and we are able to fill every 

 order, subject to stock being in when or- 

 ders arrive, and if the stock fails to ar- 

 rive, we have a big stock of 1913 impor- 

 tation. Just as good if not better than the 

 new crop. We have only the leading 

 varieties.

 mas forcing we have: Mme. Petrick, very

 equal.
