A New Remarkable Carolina 
Mountain Plant. 
Stenanthium Robustum 
(Mountain Feather Fleece) 
This remarkable hardy perennial 
is one of our best new introductions 
and of the showiest of all herba- 
.ceous plants. As the buds unfold in 
early August they are quite upright 
and ofa light green tinge, gradually 
becoming whiter until at last they 
burst forth into a veritable snow- 
bank of drooping, fleecy bloom of 
purest white, the panicles often > 
to 3 feet long. In September the 
flowers turn to shades of pink and 
purple. A vigorous perennial, from 
5 to 8 feet when well established, 
and is absolutely hardy. 
The Mountain Feather Fleece is 
of easy cultivation, and makes a 
wonderful show equaled by few 
plants of any description. 
The iilustration gives some idea 
of Stenanthium when in full 
bloom, but inadequately conveys 
the beauty of the delicate, feath- 
ered drooping flowers.

‘*F¥ammer the Hammer” 
These Three Circles 
Tell the Story 
The Iver Johnson simply cannot 
go off unless the trigger is pulled 
all the way back. Before this has been done 
there is absolutely zo connection between the revolver 
hammer and the firing-pin—see the middle circle. 
The left-hand circle shows how, by pulling the trigger, the safety lever is raised into place under 
the revolver hammer. When this hammer falls (see the right-hand circle) its blow is carried through 
the lever to the firing-pin, and the cartridge is exploded with unfailing certainty. So that, unless you 
pull the trigger, you can drop the revolver, kick it, hammer it—do what you please—it cannot be 
discharged by accident. That’s why the sales of the Iver Johnson now exceed the sales of all other 
American makes combined. 
It is Just as Sure as It is Safe 
For straight shooting and hard shooting it is unexcelled by any other revolver no matter what 
its name or price. It is compact, graceful, easy to carry, easy to handle—in every way a gentle- 
man’s weapon for pocket, desk or home.

why the Iver Johnson has won its place in public favor. It also contains much revolver lore that 
every man should know. Our handsome catalogue goes with it.
