Used by Retail Florists for messing funeral 

 designs, tying bunches, etc.. Is 



THE ONLY ARTICLE THAT SHOULD BE USED 



by Orowers for stringing Smilax and Asparagus, as 

 it will not fade or rot in the greenhouse. The M«y«r

 name— M«y«r'« Silkaline— to be sure of getting the 

 genuine article. Do not accept substitutes.

 the manufacturers. Price for any size or color, $1.25
