, Their Happy Solution \. 
“We want some hardy flowers for a border; ten 
ie LAST week’s mail came a letter saying, 
Rhododendrons for a semi-shady corner, and ten 
or so evergreens for planting around our stoop foun- 
dation. But the selecting of them from a catalog seems 
such a bugaboo to us that we are half of a mind to give 
the whole thing up, unless you will come to our aid and 
make some welcome suggestions.” 
That letter set us thinking; and so we determined in this 
advertisement to offer to you, the same suggestions we did to 
them, and add to it two more. 
Do not, however, confuse these suggestions with the usual 
“special offers,” which are so often made up, with the idea of dis- 
posing of some slow selling items with just enough good selling ones 
included;'to make them look attractive. 
Everything listed here is choice stock, top notch in every particular. The 
very kinds and quality you would pick out yourself if you came to our nursery. 
If these suggestions fail to quite meet your requirements, let us hear 
from you, telling us what you have in mind, and we will gladly suggest their 
happy solution.
