Buy Your Peonies From the 

 Originator's Stock 



'HIS year we have added to our great collection of Peo- 

 nies the new introductions of Dessert, Lemoine, and other 

 French specialists. These plants were grown directly 

 from imported roots, and we are absolutely sure that 

 they are true to name and color. 

 The plants grown at Cherry Hill Nurseries are extra 

 size and quality — in fact a little better than necessary — 

 and our collection is one of the finest and most complete 

 in the country. Most of the varieties in our list are rapid 

 growers and early bloomers and will produce flowers next 

 June if the plants are set in September or October. 



Our list of these new Peonies and the older standard 

 varieties will be valuable to you in selecting the best varieties 

 for your garden. We will gladly mail you a copy on request.

The 



VANISHING 

 RACE 



By Joseph K. Dixon 



The Story of the Dy- 

 ing Race of Red Men 

 Told by their Chiefs 



The chapter on Indian Imprints is unsurpassed by anything I 

 have ever read in its vividness and beauty of expression and its ac- 

 curacy and comprehensiveness of interpretation of the real inner 

 life of the Indian. — F. H. Abbott, Secretary Board of Indian Com- 

 missioners. 



Gives valuable information not only to those of this generation 

 but to those who follow us. — Oscar S. Straus. 



Some of the characters in "The Vanishing Race" are wonder- 

 ful, as is their story. I am impressed with the great composite pic- 

 ture of the American Indian that is presented with sidelights on his 

 virtues. — A. C. Nicholson, Supt. Menominee Indian Agency, 

 Neopit, Wis. 



"Epic in thought and treatment. The illustrations are remark- 

 able." — Los Angeles Times. 



8o Photogravure illustrations. Net $3.50. 



Many people can not get books. If there is no bookstore near you we shall be 

 glad to send books on approval. We do not wish to interfere with the trade of 

 the bookseller; we wish that every locality in the United States had a good book- 

 seller and that you would buy the books selected from him: our suggestion is 

 addressed to readers who have no convenient bookstore to go to.
