You have heard about the 

 idle rich— well, in the writer's 

 opinion the rich are the busi- 

 est people on earth. Of 

 course, as to what some of 

 them are doing the less said 

 the better, but don't put 

 them all in the same class 

 until you know what the 

 facts are. Some of the rich 

 are doing better work than 

 the poor, because they think. 

 One of the hardest things to 

 do is to make people think — 

 to reason out a point and 

 consider matters. 



If the buyers of lily bulbs 

 knew all the circumstances 

 connected with the direct im- 

 portation of the Horseshoe 

 Brand bulbs, they would buy 

 no other brand. There are 

 no lily bulbs produced which 

 will flower 100% every year, 

 but Horseshoe Brand bulbs 

 will average higher in the 

 course of time than any other 

 brand marketed. There are 

 reasons why, and good ones — 

 ask us.
