The Florists' Review 



75 



Our Ferns are all Pot Grown. 



How Much Longer Will You Sleep? 

 How Muoh Longer Will You Worry? 



Worry makes gray hair. Don't get old when you can prevent it. Don't let the waif"'*'^'^^* 

 worry you. Wake up I 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 war, but 

 blame yourself. 



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

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

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

 following plants:

AZALEA INDICA. 



DON'T BE DECEIVED. We are the 

 only reliable Importers of Azalea Indlca. 

 Our 25 year reputation of Importing, sell-

 go nowhere else for Azaleas but to God- 

 frey Aschmann. 



Our new crop from Belgium Is on the 

 road now, and we are awe to fill every 

 order, subject to stock being In when or-
